As soon as Xia Wanruan finished speaking, the person in charge, who had just lowered his head, suddenly ran out of the mountain gate quickly. His vigorous movements did not look like a gentle business manager at all. Xia Wanruan was a little far away from him. By the time she reacted to catch him, he had already slipped out of the door.
The stone door that was originally shining brightly suddenly fell down as he pressed some kind of mechanism.
At the same time, the ground began to shake violently. Under such strong shaking, countless stones began to roll down the mountain. There was a rumbling sound outside, and in the cave, large stones fell down.
"F * ck!" Xuan Sheng couldn't help but curse in a low voice. Could this earthquake be controlled by humans?
Xuan Sheng dodged the falling stones while following Xia Wanruan to see if the door could be opened.
"We can't get out." Xia Wanruan remembered the terrain outside. There were several mountains around this mountain that were taller than it, and they were very close. Under such shaking, even if they could get out, they would be smashed in the face by the overwhelming stones. Xia Wanruan made a prompt decision. "Go inside."
Xia Wanruan was about to run into the cave as she spoke.
"Be careful!"
Seeing a large stone half the height of a person falling in the direction of Xia Wanruan, Xuan Sheng was shocked. He immediately reached out to pull Xia Wanruan away, but he didn't notice the stone falling on his head.
Xia Wanruan's pupils shrank. The stone fell straight toward Xuan Sheng. Xia Wanruan pulled Xuan Sheng away, but it was too late. In a hurry, Xia Wanruan flew and kicked the big stone to the side.
The huge impact caused Xia Wanruan's legs to go soft. In the chaos of flying sand and rolling stones, Xuan Sheng clearly heard the sound of bones breaking.
"Are you okay?"
Xuan Sheng panicked and hurriedly helped Xia Wanruan up. He was unaware of the falling stones hitting him.
"Head northwest." Xia Wanruan gritted her teeth, her gaze firm.
Xia Wanruan had just taken a look and found that the mountain was very fragile. There was more soil than stone. Under such shaking, she was afraid that it would not be able to hold on for long. The cave here would be filled with soil and stone.
There seemed to be less soil and rocks falling in the northwest direction. Perhaps he could find a more solid place.
Xuan Sheng used his hand to protect Xia Wanruan's head to prevent falling rocks from hitting her as he helped her run towards the northwest.
Just as she had expected, in a small corner in the northwest direction, the rocks were extremely hard. Even with such a strong vibration, not many rocks rolled down.
Xuan Sheng brought Xia Wanruan and sat down close to the stone wall. The earthquake underground was still abnormally violent and showed no signs of weakening. Xia Wanruan frowned.
Would the earthquake last for so long?
But she didn't have time to think too much. The pain that she didn't feel in her panic just now slowly drilled out from between her legs. She had kicked hard just now, and now her legs were numb.
Xia Wanruan lowered her head. She was afraid that her leg was broken. She directly reached out and tore her sleeve. Xia Wanruan felt for a stone slab and directly tied it up. "Hiss." The piercing pain made Xia Wanruan's forehead drip with sweat.
However, Xia Wanruan's hands did not stop moving. She firmly fixed the injured part of her body to prevent the bones from dislocating again.
"I'm sorry, I implicated you."
Xuan Sheng quietly watched Xia Wanruan wrap the rough stone slab around her jade-white calf. At this moment, Xia Wanruan's body was either scratched or covered in dust. Xuan Sheng, who had always been a clean freak, felt that
She was extremely clean at this moment.
There was obviously something wrong with the person in charge just now. Xuan Sheng felt that the old man from Shengshi Group must have done this behind the scenes.
"It's not your fault. He should have come for me."
Xia Wanruan thought for a moment and suddenly said. Just now, when the person in charge turned around and confirmed that they were locked inside and couldn't get out, he looked at her.
Rocks and soil continued to fall. The originally small cave gradually piled up with rocks that were as tall as a person, filling up the entire cave. Only in the northwest corner of the cave was a space of less than two square meters, leaving a gap.
Xia Wanruan took out her mobile phone. Sure enough, there was no signal. This was originally at the foot of the mountain, and the signal was extremely weak. Under such an earthquake, the base station outside was probably damaged.
"What should we do now?"
Xuan Sheng looked at the soil and rocks in front of him that were taller than him. He couldn't even stretch out his legs. His eyebrows were tightly knitted. Who knew how long it would take for the search and rescue team to find them?
Outside the mountain, it was more serious than Xia Wanruan had imagined. This "earthquake" affected the entire Linxi City, and even the surrounding cities felt extremely strong tremors.
It was chaos. At this time, it was the summer river flood season. The strong earthquake caused the dam to break, and half of the entire city was submerged in the flood.
Corpses were everywhere.
This accident was too big. Soon, the entire country's attention was focused on this disaster city.
After Shen Qian found out about this, he immediately contacted Xia Wanruan. All he got was the message, "The number you have dialed is not in the service area."
Shen Qian had been climbing for many years. He knew about the awkward relationship between the Xia family and Xia Wanruan, as well as Xia Wanruan's celebrity status, so he didn't immediately tell Xia Yuanqing the news. Instead, he contacted Chen Yun.
"What?!!
You said that Wanruan is in Linxi City?!! "Chen Yun couldn't even hold the phone steadily.
