Chapter 3189 Unexplainable

Right now is the darkest time before dawn. There are pieces of indistinct mist rippling between the sky and the earth. The whole world seems to be swallowed by monsters and fall into the rotten stomach. Only a single lamp at the supper stall is against the intense darkness.

Dream Traveler should be sleeping, Li Yao was not sure if calling him so early would be annoying.

However, if you think about it carefully, from the emotional analysis of Dream Traveler's words, he should also be very lonely, and he is very eager to communicate with friends who have similar experiences.

Li Yao couldn't wait any longer, so he put his mind to it and dialed it directly.

A melancholy and low-pitched ringtone echoed for half a minute, but no one answered. Perhaps the other party turned their phone to silent mode before going to bed?

Li Yao waited for more than ten minutes, and when he wanted to call again, the light hanging above the supper stall went out.

The eastern sky faintly bloomed with a few smears of blood, while the western sky still had strange stars twinkling. Under Li Yao's feet, the ground began to tremble, as if it had changed from a hard solid to a pulpy semi-fluid. A mysterious and terrifying force is about to break out of the ground.

The boss couple of the supper stall and the diners around Li Yao all shook.

earthquake?

Li Yao, the boss and the diners looked at each other, but didn't react for a while.

Jiangnan City is located in the eastern coastal area, not on the plate tectonic belt, and there have been few serious earthquakes in history, and it has not even seen the shadow of an earthquake in the past 30 to 50 years.

Therefore, it was not until the shaking of the ground became more and more serious that the pots and pans at the supper stalls collided with each other and made a "clinking" sound, and everyone suddenly became aware of it.

The owner and his wife shouted, and hastily pushed the supper stall to the middle of the road, avoiding the tall buildings on both sides. Other than that, they seemed to have nothing to do. They shrank their heads and opened their mouths wide. , Watching hundreds of windows vibrate simultaneously with "crash, clatter".

In a short time, almost all the windows of high-rise buildings were lit up, and there was a sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and some people poked their heads out of the windows with disheveled clothes and sleepy eyes—fortunately, the intensity of the earthquake was not too high. High, people's minds are still clear, no one did the stupid thing of jumping directly from the third or fifth floor, but many people ran down from the corridor panting, gathered in the middle of the road and in the square, a little confused Looking at the gradually clear sky.

The earthquake subsided and lasted for three to five minutes.

No, to be more precise, it was not an earthquake, but a "shock feeling". The epicenter should be extremely far away from Jiangnan City. Such a quake feeling is unlikely to cause any substantial damage.

Now that dawn has ushered in, people who had a false alarm are unwilling to go back to sleep like this. They gather together in twos and threes to discuss, guess where a serious earthquake has occurred, and some young men who are young are smiling and staring at those hastily thrown away. When they came out, the girls who didn't even wear shoes saw that there was no tension at all.

Li Yao felt a chill of fear for no reason.

Dream Traveler's prophecies are being fulfilled one by one, first the death of the creators of the fantasy world, followed by various natural disasters such as earthquakes.

Li Yao stared at the news bulletin page on his mobile phone, refreshing it time and time again. Sure enough, after ten minutes, a new piece of news appeared:

"In the early hours of this morning, an earthquake measuring 9.2 on the Richter scale occurred in the western Pacific Ocean. The epicenter was very close to Edo Bay. It has already caused serious chaos in the eastern part of the archipelago. According to the tsunami warning issued by the Fuso Meteorological Agency, there is also a tsunami at least 15 meters high. The islands have been attacked one after another, and sources pointed out that this earthquake may become the biggest crisis that Fuso has encountered since World War II, and it is not even ruled out that this is just a precursor to a series of strong earthquakes!"

Because it is news that happened not long ago, the news is written very briefly.

But Li Yao knew that the shorter the news, the bigger the matter.

The thing is clear—the Fusang Islands are a series of islands located in the Pacific Ocean, while Jiangnan City stands on a solid continental shelf. The earthquake that occurred in the east of the islands was even felt in Jiangnan City thousands of miles away. Such an earthquake , Is it really only level 9.2?

The news website has its own workflow, and it is impossible to respond so quickly to the earthquake, but there have been many short videos sent back by Chinese people far away in Fusang on social media. From the shaking screen, you can see that the planet is One of the best super metropolises is immersed in flames and thick smoke, and the harsh sirens are louder and louder. It really seems to have returned to the bombing of World War II, and there are all kinds of gossips, true and false. Fei Wu said that at least half of the dozen or so nuclear power plants in the eastern part of the archipelago had serious nuclear leakage accidents, and the radiation index even exceeded that of Chernobyl back then. The situation has completely gotten out of control.

Li Yao cursed inwardly, feeling as though the sea was calm just now, but suddenly a storm hit his head and brain.

"not good!"

He suddenly shivered deeply, and ran desperately to the neighborhood where Zhang Daniu lived.

"If, if what Dream Traveler said is true, isn't that big cow very dangerous?"

Li Yao didn't care to hide his figure, and flew through the streets like an arrow from the string, "Although the earthquake that occurred in the Pacific Ocean could not cause any damage to Jiangnan City, 'some kind of force' relied on the earthquake's Yu Wei, it is more than enough to kill one or two people!"

Li Yao ran into the old community in one breath.

At this time, a lot of people had gathered on the road in the community - the elderly were light sleepers, and it was difficult to fall asleep once they were awakened, so they simply gathered to discuss what happened just now, and planned to exercise early or something.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Yao was naturally unable to use the gecko's wall-climbing skills, so he could only go up the stairs to the fifth floor honestly. Time was running out and the door was locked tightly. Li Yao just let out a low growl, "Bang", and kicked Opened the door of Zhang Daniu's house.

fortunately!

Zhang Daniu was still typing on the keyboard crazily, making a series of dense impact sounds. The earthquake just now had no effect on him at all. His eyes changed from sunken to protruding, completely stained red with bloodshot eyes.

really!

A row of bookshelves on his left, full of thick and heavy hardcover books and encyclopedia dictionaries, have been tilted by the earthquake, accompanied by the author exerting all his strength and exaggerating the movement of hitting the carriage return, The angle of inclination became more and more obvious, like a precarious cliff that would collapse on him at any moment.

Many of these hardcover books and encyclopedic dictionaries are printed on coated paper, with sharp edges and corners, and are extremely solid, no different from bricks.

"Brother Niu!"

Li Yao yelled violently and rushed over.

The moment he rushed over, "crash", the bookshelf, together with the encyclopedia dictionaries and hardcover books on it, collapsed, and the sharp edges and corners of the books went straight to the author's temple.

"ah?"

Zhang Daniu shuddered suddenly, awakened by Li Yao's yelling, and turned around in a daze.

"Go!"

Li Yao didn't have time to resist or hug him, so he simply jumped up, kicked the author into the corner, and himself endured the consequences of the collapse of the bookshelf instead of the author.

"oops!"

Li Yao and Zhang Daniu screamed at the same time.

When Li Yao managed to crawl out from the chaotic pile of books, the first thing he did was not to check his injuries, but to go to see Zhang Daniu in the corner.

Fortunately, he held back his strength in time. Apart from kicking the author with a black eye and a bruised nose and a swollen face, it should, it seems, not hurt the brain.

Zhang Daniu finally woke up.

But he was even more confused than when he was sleepwalking. He stared at Li Yao dumbfounded for a long time, his expression gradually changed from confusion to pain, and he rubbed his hands, head and butt vigorously.

"Well, what's going on here?"

Zhang Daniu held his head, grinning his teeth and said, "My head hurts so much, I remember, I seem to be drunk..."

"That's right."

Li Yao crawled out from the pile of books, approached the author, nodded and said, "Brother Niu, you're drunk, it's normal to have a headache after a hangover."

"Then why does my hand hurt so much?"

Zhang Daniu looked at his ten fingers swollen like carrots, and found that the nails were cracked. He said in disbelief, "I, what did I do?"

"You may not believe it when you say it."

Li Yao said, "You have been writing while sleepwalking."

"Really, am I sleepwalking again?"

It seems that this is not the first time Zhang Daniu has done "dream writing". He didn't become suspicious of this, but touched his buttocks and said, "Oh, my whole body hurts, sore, especially Butt, the butt hurts badly too, no, if you drink alcohol, you can still get to the butt!"

"Well……"

Li Yao thought for a while, "Brother Niu, you have been sleepwalking and writing since eleven or twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and you have been glued to the chair for five or six hours without moving. Hip discomfort is normal and reasonable."

"Yeah?"

Zhang Daniu grabbed his buttocks again, tentatively agreeing to this statement, but he stared at Li Yao for a while, and suddenly remembered another thing.

"You are... oh, you are Li Yao's classmate, the brother of 'Little Rabbit in the Star Sea', we had a drink together last night, but, hey, but I remember you left last night? I think Think, you sent me home, you left, and closed the door very hard, I have the impression that you must have left!"

Zhang Daniu reached out to touch the phone, "What time is it, why are you here?"

"It's 5:30 in the morning, Brother Niu, you don't know, something big happened—an earthquake!"

Li Yao said, "The Western Pacific Ocean has just had a massive earthquake with a magnitude of 9.2. Jiangnan City has felt the shock. I'm worried that something will happen to you. Come here quickly to have a look. No, it's just in time!"

"What?"

Zhang Daniu's eyes widened, and he became sober all of a sudden, "Because there was an earthquake in the Pacific Ocean, you drove dozens of miles from school to my place at five o'clock in the morning to remind me to be careful...you, you How did you get in?"

"this--"

Li Yao didn't know how to answer.

The two looked at each other, wide-eyed and small-eyed. Suddenly, all the muscles in Zhang Daniu's body tensed up, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"Wait, you did go back to school last night, didn't you? Even if you didn't go back to school, you sent me home anyway, so you left?"

Zhang Daniu asked tremblingly.

"……yes."

How else could Li Yao answer?

"Then, since you sent me home, if you leave—"

Zhang Daniu asked, "How do you know that I sleepwalk in the middle of the night and wake up to write novels?"
