Volume 6 [The tiger is strong even when it goes to sea] NO.48 Heavenly power and terror
While the second-category US mouthpieces are reporting on the glorious results of the war in Afghanistan, more and more US military bases have been lost. The friendly and intelligent Chinese people say that the reason why the US military has been harmed must be because they have done something unjust.
matter"
Of course, the picture switched to another picture three minutes later, a massive earthquake in the Indian Ocean.
The main earthquake zone lasted for nearly 500 seconds.
In some areas, the earthquake lasted as little as 20 to 30 seconds and as much as 300 seconds. The wide range and large amplitude are extremely rare in history.
Especially the coastal areas of Southeast Asia and other countries were almost completely devastated, and the resulting tsunami was like a giant bulldozer pushing across the earth.
The immediate death toll is unclear, but the number of missing persons has already exceeded 50,000.
Zhang Bi and Xia Zhen should be located in the northeastern region of Thailand. To be precise, it should be the northeastern part of the Greater Bangkok area. The terrain here is relatively high, and with the buffering of the San Kamphaeng Mountains, the destructive power is far away.
Not as strong as anywhere near the Indian Ocean.
However, they are located in the Lampapong Reservoir, where the source of the Meng River is. However, due to a strong earthquake, the embankment ruptured and the reservoir began to overflow. The ruptured area had a large opening, like a waterfall.
Washing the river valley.
At the same time, weather changes can be described as fleeting.
It was originally a sunny day with bright sunshine, but five minutes later, it was covered with dark clouds, and violent storms covered all the surrounding areas without warning.
Zhang Ben could swear that from his position it was impossible to see even ten meters away.
There was a vast expanse of white all around, and the sound of the crashing and pouring rain was like the fiercest frontline battle.
The bullets and bullets were pouring out again, and the whole world seemed to be turned upside down.
Water and sky were originally a good word, but now, it is just horror, endless horror.
The violent earthquake made the three of them extremely nervous. Xia Zhen and Helen hugged Zhang Bi tightly, fearing that they would be overturned by the power of nature accidentally. They secretly opened their eyes to see the helpless people.
All the animals staggered around. But Zhang Ben hugged the boulder tightly and did not relax for a moment.
This huge grafting tree saved their lives because the root system of the grafting tree is extremely developed and can firmly control the surrounding water and soil. Therefore, although the terrain here is relatively high, its well-developed roots fix all the water and soil, and the surrounding area is vast.
A forest of trees, all under its protection, remained motionless.
The violent shaking just now was like the earth teasing the poor creatures. Those who could not resist it all staggered and fell into the mud.
Some snakes were entangled around the roots and branches of the tree, but they were also in a state of panic. Zhang Ben squirted out the rainwater from his mouth. In just a moment, a large amount of water could be clearly seen on the ground and began to flow rapidly downwards.
There was a splashing sound, and the running water hit the rocks like it could enter a stream, making a crisp sound, but it was not pleasant at all.
The world was turned upside down, and it was extremely terrifying.
The collapse of the Lampa Phong Reservoir also occurred without warning, and the river valley that was vertical to the direction of the San Kamphaeng Mountains was immediately washed away by floods.
A flash flood broke out.
The ground shook violently, as if there were rows of tanks passing by not far away. The sound and vibration were extremely terrifying. Xia Zhen had completely fallen into a state of sensory weakness. To put it simply, she was confused, but
I threw myself into Zhang Ben's arms and felt his strong heartbeat, which made me believe that I was still alive.
Helen kept praying to God. The most terrifying thing in the world is probably this.
However, Zhang Bi and the others were still lucky.
Those who live in low-lying areas are the real misfortunes. Because of the heavy rainstorms and violent earthquakes, many people staggered in the mud. Some people who accidentally fell into deep water never recovered.
When he got up, the water swirled and swallowed him up quickly.
The Daphne in Bangkok Bay was like a fragile toy, being pushed around by violent vibrations and terrifying waves. Federo looked pale and shivered in his room, praying that the strong Daphne could persevere.
.
Such a huge natural disaster, even if it is an aircraft carrier, will not give people any sense of security.
After all, Bangkok Bay is on one side of the Indian Ocean and will not be directly affected by the tsunami. It is blocked by a peninsula in the middle, so its destructive power is not as tragic as that of Jakarta.
No one now knows how tragic things happened on the edge of the South China Sea.
Those ships passing through the Strait of Malacca don’t even know what kind of fate awaits them.
In the greater Bangkok area, many houses collapsed due to the earthquake, and many dilapidated buildings collapsed. Already, people began to crowd because of panic, and violent stampedes occurred.
The White Elephant Temple collapsed in the earthquake due to its age and disrepair. A group of monks such as Duoji and Axin were not buried in the ruins of the White Elephant Temple because they wanted to appease Ayu, a big white elephant.
When the heavy rain started and the earthquake stopped, someone braved the heavy rain and came over to tell Asin that two nearby temples had collapsed and dozens of monks were buried inside.
At this moment, Ashin and Duoji were extremely grateful to Ayu, and the white elephant's divine light was even more admirable.
The heavy rainstorm continues and seems to have no intention of stopping, but fortunately, there is no severe lightning and thunder, and most of the thunder and lightning are over the greater Bangkok area.
Electrical appliances have been damaged by lightning in many places. Some power transmission towers have begun to collapse. Power outages have occurred in most areas. Some high-rise buildings and government agencies have begun to use their own power generation. The roar of generators can be heard in many places.
can be heard.
Although the ground began to stop shaking, the waves were still violent. The Daphne was almost pushed into the shore. If the captain had been decisive and pulled the Daphne out for some repairs, the anchoring position was far away from the shore. I am afraid there would be a huge disaster.
's loss.
You know, when the waves were at their most intense, the Daphne was only thirty meters away from the shore.
However, the violent shaking still caused many injuries, and a baker who was cutting ham was killed by his own knife.
Because he fell during the violent shaking, the knife in his hand was out of shape, and he accidentally pierced his chest. He stopped breathing a few minutes later.
Doomsday-like scenes are being staged everywhere. King Rama IX and the Queen are hiding in an indestructible explosion-proof and earthquake-proof shelter.
The news that came over the phone was extremely pessimistic. It seems that the greater Bangkok area suffered extremely severe losses because it was too close to the coastline. This is the political, cultural and financial center of Thailand. The losses are so great that it is difficult to estimate.
The heavy rain continued, and Zhang Ben felt that it had been a long time since the raindrops hit his back. His knuckles had turned white, and he clung to the boulder firmly. He was deeply afraid of aftershocks, because there had been several in the middle.
Aftershocks were so powerful that they shook the earth.
He could already hear the sound of fierce water flowing in his left ear, rushing through the river valley next to him.
He was very familiar with this kind of sound. When he was in Yunnan, he encountered flash floods, but he and his father Zhang Yaozu were lucky enough to not die there. However, Zhang Bi was very aware of the terrifying power of nature.
, the saying that man is determined to conquer nature, so far, is just a spirit, not a reality.
No nuclear bomb can achieve such destructive power.
The big fish was splashing. Helen asked loudly: "Zhang, will we die?"
She began to sob, "I was begging God for forgiveness, but he didn't give me any reply."
Zhang Ben let the rain hit him, gritted his teeth, and said nothing. There were not many snakes left around him. Only two large pythons managed to avoid rolling down because they entangled themselves with the hanging roots of a large tree in the distance.
On this flat land, there are not many creatures that still stubbornly resist the power of nature.
Only a few of the monkeys were shivering at the roots of the big banyan tree. However, due to a thunder and loud popping noise, a branch of the big banyan tree was cut off by lightning, and at the same time, the few monkeys were killed.
The monkeys were beaten to death until they died.
Zhang Ben watched all this power with his eyes wide open. He did not miss any detail. He wanted to record all the scenes firmly. This kind of power reminded himself that there are still many things in this world.
There are more terrifying forces.
How can human beings fight against this blue planet? It is too fragile and insignificant!
Xia Zhen burst into tears and shouted loudly: "Zhang Bi, will we die? Wuwuwuwuwu
Zhang Bi shouted loudly: "No! No one can kill us! The only one who can kill us is ourselves!"
There were more thunder and lightning in the sky, and thick thunder and lightning continued to strike down.
A thunderbolt that can hit the earth's surface has to travel at least ninety kilometers. You can imagine how terrifying the power of this kind of lightning is.
But Zhang Bi was lucky. They were on the edge of the thunderstorm area, and only occasionally thunder and lightning struck down. More thunder power was only in the distance, and the thunderstorm area was close to the greater Bangkok area.
The power of the flash flood was getting stronger and stronger. Zhang Ben guessed that the reservoir upstream might have collapsed. His ears stood up and he seemed to hear someone shouting, but he couldn't control that much. He was not a god and had no more ability to do it.
Protect others.
Even oneself is extremely fragile under such power of heaven and earth.
Soon, the shout disappeared in another roaring wave of water.
Obviously, that person must be dead.
The heavy rain lasted for nearly forty minutes. Zhang Ben could clearly feel the surrounding representatives. Due to the erosion of the rain, a large part of the developed root system of the big tree was exposed, but this tenacious giant tree was protecting it.
A group of lives that are equally tenacious.
Next to it is the violent flash flood in the river valley. Although the flash flood may have been very weak from here, it is not something ordinary people can resist.
Coupled with the heavy rainfall over a large area, the floods expanded at a terrifying speed. Zhang Bi could even conclude that the tributaries around the small valley were probably already a vast ocean. He didn't know what happened to Lord Buddha.
Zhang Ben thought secretly in his heart.
At this time, Dorje and the others were riding elephants, rowing boats, and resting on the roofs of some houses that had not collapsed. There was a vast ocean around them. I didn't know what the city center of Bangkok was like. Maybe it would be a little better because of the drainage system.
The rivers around here have too many bends and are easily blocked, so the water quickly rises.
When Ashin saw the first corpse floating on the river, he couldn't bear to close his eyes, then clasped his hands together and kept chanting.
The compassionate Ah Xin was beaten by the rain on his body. In his weak body, there seemed to be a strong force supporting him in reciting the scriptures. He was shivering, cold and fear intertwined, but more of it was a kind of sadness.
Faced with all kinds of dangers, he felt powerless.
Even the big white elephant Ayu calmed down. At this time, it turned out to be stronger than humans.
The heavy rain finally began to slowly stop pouring, and the wind speed also began to slow down, but occasionally there would be violent gusts, but every once in a while, there would be strong and strong winds blowing for a long time. The feeling was really terrifying.
Zhang Bi slowly let go of the boulder, and then whispered: "It's a little safer now."
After experiencing two less powerful aftershocks, Zhang Ben was convinced that it should be much safer now than before.
At a glance, many trees have collapsed because their foundations are too shallow. There are even tree trunks that have been broken by lightning and hung by strong winds, floating on the water, like terrifying suicide weapons. Once they hit something, they will immediately
Produce huge destructive power.
Xia Zhen and Helen were extremely cold. Zhang Bi hugged them. His body temperature could dissipate heat faster because of the energy from the fountain of life, so Xia Zhen and Helen felt that Zhang Bi was extremely warm.
It can be said that at this moment, it is something more perfect and warmer than anything else.
Xia Zhen stopped crying, hugged Zhang Bi for a while, and then said with a trembling voice: "Zhang Bi, if we can't go back, don't leave me behind, okay?"
"Don't be stupid, there's no way I could leave you. Not even to death!"
Zhang Bi blurted out something boldly.
"Yeah." Xia Zhen murmured, "Zhang Bi, it's great to meet you."
I don’t know whether I met him in Thailand or that night when I was surrounded by hooligans.
Maybe, both.
"I'm going to make a simple tent. You two come to the back of the rock.
Zhang Bi stood up and looked at the rolling flood rushing past the small valley. Suddenly he thought to himself: The power of God is terrifying and shocking.
Clenching his fists tightly, his eyes were full of fighting spirit: But this is not the reason why I am afraid of Tianwei!
