Chapter 221 Fire Night (1)
It was the beginning of autumn in the ninth year of Jinghan in the Wu Dynasty, in the evening.
Hangzhou.
The sunset was red, and there was a feeling of panic. Amidst the violent shaking, the originally gentle water of the West Lake was churning like a boil. The mountains and rivers far away were enveloped in indescribable panic by this sudden power of heaven and earth.
"Hide under the table! Hide under the table!" On the big ship, there were the sounds of countless tables and chairs moving, dishes falling and breaking, panic and screams mixed together. Some people fell and some ran around.
He collided with others. At this moment, the entire space was filled with panic. Ning Yi took the hands of Su Tan'er and Xiaochan, and then pushed them to the bottom of the round table.
Wen Ding, Wen Fang, Luo Tian and his wife and others also reacted and hid inside.
However, there was actually little need to evade like this. When everyone hid under the round table, after a while, they realized that the continuous shaking of the boat was actually not very big. The earthquake was buffered by the lake and transformed into
On the boat, the main shaking is left and right.
This ship is not a sea-going ship and has insufficient earthquake resistance. However, because of its huge hull, it is still relatively stable after all. Apart from the astonishing power at the beginning, the rest of the shaking is tolerable. It is just evening and there is no full-scale vibration on the ship.
Holding a lamp, perhaps this is the luckiest thing.
Then, there was another sound of "Friends", and the ship on the other side swayed over and collided with this one.
There are not many boat berths in Xiaoyingzhou, so many boats are parked together. Considering that the wind in West Lake is not strong at this time, the boats are already densely packed together today. At this time, the water waves will convert the vibration into sway, almost the entire
The boats on Xiaoyingzhou were all ramming into each other at this time. Between the boats and between the boats and the pier, there were loud noises, screams, panic, and shouting from afar, mixed with the earthquake.
Amidst the loud noises, one after another.
Ning Yi was stunned for a moment, listening to these voices carefully, Su Tan'er squeezed his palm: "Juan'er, Xing'er, Juan'er, Xing'er and the others..." She also realized at this time that the people on the ship were
The vibration was not too strong, it was just that the whole world was filled with such noisy sounds. Ning Yi glanced at her, then patted her palm: "It's okay." He didn't have much experience in dealing with this in a hurry.
There should be nothing wrong on Bian Da's boat. In fact, the most important thing during an earthquake is the fear of being hit by something or being crushed by collapsed objects. However, there were no skyscrapers at this time. He just hesitated for a moment and then said: "
I'll go to the deck and take a look."
When I got out of the table, someone was already shouting in front of me, "Don't panic, don't panic, it's okay!"
Ning Yi pushed away a person who was running over, pointed at the table next to him and shouted: "Hide under the table!" Looking back, Tan'er and Xiaochan also ran out, and followed Su Wending and Su Wenfang.
Roar, but thinking that the outer deck might be safer than here, I didn't say much and staggered outside first.
There were also panicked people on the side deck of the ship. Ning Yi looked around and saw that the entire Xiaoyingzhou was shaking violently, the bridge was collapsing, the trees were shaking, and Baoning Temple in the distance was constantly falling tiles in the sunset.
As if it was disintegrating into pieces, a pillar of a pavilion on one side fell down, and then the entire pavilion began to fall. Occasionally, water waves would hit the lower cofferdam walkway.
Ning Yi looked at it from a distance, but there were boats all around. Their boat was small after all, and it was blocked and could not be seen. The board connecting the big boat to the pier was rumbling and shaking, but these things were originally messed up.
Due to its size and grandeur, it usually looks broad and strong even when getting into a carriage, but at this time there was no sign of falling apart.
People on land were less lucky than people on boats. Some soldiers had fallen into the water at lower ground and were flopping around desperately. There were also several monks near Baoning Temple who were running for their lives without knowing where they were going.
, a monk fell into the water, and then jumped up again. They originally lived here, and the water was good.
There was also a slight blank period in Ning Yi's thoughts. And at the next moment, Su Tan'er suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted: "Old Wu! Old Wu... Mr. Master! Look!" Her expression was panicked, with countless trembling eyes.
Among the trees, Ning Yi also saw a vague scene over there. It was the shore where his boat was moored. Old Wu, the boatman, was vaguely holding a tree on the cofferdam. It seemed that he was already holding a tree on his legs.
Injured and bleeding, these boat operators were not afraid if they fell into the water. But at this time, it seemed that they were hit by something when the earthquake occurred. The boat should be over there, but no one came down to help for a while.
He returned to the ship.
"I'm coming over, but you don't come! It's safe here!" Ning Yi shouted simply and walked towards the upper and lower planks of the ship's side. The ship swayed again. He stabilized his body and went over to take a closer look at the connection between the ship and the shore.
It wasn't like it would collapse or break directly. Ning Yi took a breath and ran over. He had already run up the wooden board, and then heard Su Tan'er shouting: "I'll go too."
"You..." Ning Yi turned back and stretched out his hand. The couple staggered to the shore, almost falling. At this time, the ground under their feet was already shaking violently. The entire field of vision was already rumbling, and then they heard something like
He was shouting intermittently: "Uncle, Miss..." I saw that Xiaochan had already run halfway. She was running in a panic. When she was about to reach the ground, the board shook suddenly and she fell to the ground. Ning Yi stretched out his hand
He grabbed the skirt of her chest, and Xiaochan also hugged his arm with both hands. Ning Yi pulled him over, and his whole little face swayed in his field of vision.
If the ship was hit violently again at this time, the upper and lower planks, which were several meters wide, might be shoveled towards this side. Ning Yi pulled the two women and walked away quickly, but saw Su Wen Ding and Su Wen Fang running down.
, Su Wen almost fell down, but was caught by Su Wending. There was no accident for the two grown men. Ning Yi blinked: "You... sister..." He has been a decision-maker for so many years, and every time
Urgent matters are serious, but at this moment, I am not in the mood to say anything. In fact, Su Wending and Su Wenfang are more suitable to help than Su Tan'er Xiaochan, but if the two of them come, I'm afraid Su Tan'er Xiaochan will be even less capable.
Stay on the big ship.
The five people staggered over there. In fact, Ning Yi was not trying to save the boatman, but there were people left on the boat. The boatman was injured, but no one came out to pay attention to him. It was probably because there were other problems on the boat.
Ning Yi and Su Tan'er are basically worried about the safety of Juan'er and Xing'er. After all, no one can show mercy at this critical moment. If Juan'er and Xing'er are also on the big ship, there will be boatmen here and even following them all the way.
The coachman Dongzhu and others are all dead, and Ning Yi and others will probably not disembark and take risks.
Shaking, collision, huge noise, shaking vision, miserable screams, boats one after another and people falling into the water, where the five people had been running, a weir suddenly collapsed, and a big tree almost collapsed.
Half of the road collapsed into the water. After all, Xiaoyingzhou is surrounded by weirs and dams. In such a shaking, some places have begun to collapse. Ning Yi just took a look and helped people faster.
running.
When we arrived at the boat, we found that the small boat was still leaning on the shore, and even the rope was tied to the shore. It was hard to say whether the boatman's leg injury was serious or not. He was just frightened. Ning Yi grabbed him and went to the boat.
Throw it up. After throwing it up, suddenly I saw Xing'er on the bow of the boat, who seemed to be lying on the deck and didn't know what she was doing in the water. Dong Zhu took a bamboo pole, and Ning Yi shouted: "What's wrong?"
?" Dongzhu turned around, and Xing'er also turned around, crying: "Uncle! Uncle! Juan'er fell into the water..." Xing'er, Dongzhu doesn't know how to swim.
Su Tan'er, Xiaochan and others were stunned for a moment. Ning Yi let them go and jumped onto the deck of the boat. He almost got sprained due to the vibration, but then he ran towards the other side and saw that there was still a trace of water in the water.
The figure jumped in with a bang.
Swimming in this kind of water feels completely different from swimming in the West Lake on weekdays. There are countless water splashes, foams, undercurrents, and dull sounds. But fortunately, Ning Yi has been exercising for a long time and finally found Juan'er's position.
He held her back and lifted her out of the water.
The water ripples were beating violently in the surrounding field of vision. The bow of the boat, which usually looked low, was almost out of reach at this time. The figure above was stretching out its hands, but it was hard to hear what they were shouting. Ning Yi usually looked up from the side.
I got on the boat at a lower place. At this time, my thoughts just came up, and I saw a painting boat next to me swinging over like a hill, and collided with my own small painting boat.
Ning Yi adjusted his body in the water and looked at Juan'er who was being hugged. She didn't have the strength to struggle anymore, but her eyes were still slightly open and seemed to be still moving. That's good, Ning Yi thought, and paddled hard...
After a few clicks, I approached the bow of the boat again, only to see the bow suddenly expand in my field of vision.
The water waves pushed the boat towards this side, and with a bang, the bottom of the boat hit Ning Yi's head.
For a moment, the world was spinning, and he was a little confused. The gurgling water and the scarlet trembling sky under the water waves made Juaner sink again. He subconsciously grabbed it but failed. After a moment,
He finally adjusted his body, picked up Juan'er and floated upward again.
After breaking out of the water, someone stretched out his hand in the field of vision. In the panic, they grabbed each other several times. Indeed, Su Wending, half of his body was hanging outside the deck of the bow, and everyone behind him was dragging him. Ning Yi's head
It seemed to be buzzing for a while, but when he reacted again, he and Hao'er had been pulled onto the deck, Juan'er was held in his arms, and Ning Yi almost hugged him.
After being in a daze for a few seconds, Ning Yi shook his head and finally came to his senses. He went to see Juan'er. The little maid who was usually relatively quiet and taciturn had her head tilted to one side. She had made no sound. Her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes were covered with crystal beads.
Shuizhu. Ning Yi patted her face, but there was no response. Then he patted her a few more times. Ning Yi was stunned and put her flat on the deck next to her. Su Tan'er was also desperately checking her movements.
There was not much room for hesitation, Ning Yi lay down and put his ear on Juan'er's chest. It was summer at this time, and Juan'er's clothes were thin. At this time, she pressed tightly against her petite body, her breasts were like
It was bulging like a sour head. But Ning Yi couldn't guess anything else. He didn't hear the heartbeat. He crossed his hands, covered Juan'er's left breast and pressed it hard a few times, then pinched her nose and kissed her mouth to mouth.
Perform artificial respiration, and then continue to press on the chest. This went back and forth several times. Finally, the little maid spat out some water. Ning Yi leaned down and continued to listen with his ears.
However, there is still no feedback.
Ning Yi took a breath and continued to press, breathe, press, breathe. People around him had never seen this kind of rescue method, but looking at Ning Yi's attitude, they probably knew that when he was doing it, at a certain moment
, when Ning Yi let go of Juan'er's nose and pressed his hands on the other person's chest, he suddenly discovered that the little maid lying on the deck had opened her eyes and was looking at him in confusion.
Ning Yi pressed it again subconsciously.
Juan'er was still looking at him doubtfully, but her body twitched slightly with this move. The two looked at each other for a moment. Ning Yi stretched out one hand and patted her cheek, while the other hand still covered her.
On his chest, he leaned down and pressed against the soft place... In fact, since this afternoon, he has also experienced too many things and spent a lot of energy. He was almost doing this anxiously and mechanically, and he couldn't do it all at once.
Unable to react, Su Tan'er leaned down and called out: "Juan'er."
"Miss... uncle... cough..."
The expression on Juan'er's usually quiet little face was a bit ethereal at this time. It seemed that she couldn't figure out the specific matter. Ning Yi put his hand on her chest and even listened to her ear. Even if she just
When she opened her eyes and blew air from mouth to mouth, she felt very confused. Ning Yi breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sat down next to her and laughed "haha". He was also very tired.
Amidst the tired laughter of relief, his left hand was still placed on the other person's left chest.
At this time, the surrounding mountains and rivers were still shaking violently and crazily. Ning Yi's forehead, which had just been hit by the bottom of the boat, was also bleeding out, which made everyone around him a little confused. For a moment, he didn't know how to remind him to put it on
The dirty hand on Juan'er's chest still reminded him of the injury on his forehead, and even Su Tan'er's expression seemed a little complicated and hesitant.
Even Juan'er was still lying down as before, looking at the sky and blinking her eyes numbly. The trance she had just awakened from had probably not made her realize that something was wrong. Judging from her expression, she might just be thinking.
:Why does my uncle keep putting his hand on hers?
She had no choice but to lie still...
The boatman was already struggling to put away the rope at the other end. A boat not far away was burning with flames. I don’t know how it caught fire, but at this moment it finally exploded because it touched flammable materials. 1
The small half of the hull fell into the water with light spots. Some people jumped from there, some fell into the water, and some hit the side of the ship in the air, and then fell into the two ships that were about to collide. There was a bang.
.Farther away, more panic and accidents are still happening.
The frantic symphony of the night slowly played in this atmosphere...
