A RV carrying ten people gradually drove away from Jing City, where they had lived for nearly three years, and headed north again along the highway toward the Hunza Mountain Grassland, [-] kilometers away.

Wen Qizhou, who was sitting in the driver's seat, listened to their chat and glanced at the vehicles behind him through the rearview mirror.

Recently, many people have received news of base relocation in advance. Perhaps they are afraid that something unexpected will happen if they wait too long, so they simply drive their own vehicles and take the first step like them.

Because of this, you can sometimes encounter overtakers.

But no matter how fast the cars next to him were on the highway, he still carried a car full of people at a steady speed.

He drove off the highway and was about to follow Chi Yue's directions to another road when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a stream of light falling down at an incalculable speed.

Chi Yue: "Turn left quickly!"

She also noticed the flowing light, her face became visibly pale, she tightened her seat belt and reminded him loudly.

Wen Qizhou turned the steering wheel subconsciously.

The wheels made a harsh friction sound, and the car rushed towards the grass amidst the screams of the people, and suddenly plunged into the green belt next to it.

The next second, a huge black meteorite hit the road they were about to drive forward with a bang.

There was silence between heaven and earth for a moment.

Countless meteorites then quickly crashed down, mercilessly destroying the surrounding roads and buildings with loud noises.

The moving vehicle had no time to avoid it, and the person and the vehicle were crushed beneath it.

The blood trail spread from under the meteorite.

Everyone finally came to their senses and looked at everything in front of them through the car windows in disbelief.

Wen Qizhou's eyes flashed with sadness.

Thinking that the crisis was still there, he did not dare to stay here for too long, so he restarted the vehicle and changed the route.

The meteorites behind him continued to fall, and every time one fell, there was an earth-shaking loud noise.

The sky trembled, and everything faded.

The car's speed of 120 yards suddenly accelerated amidst the approaching meteorites. Chi Yue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had a thin layer of sweat on her palms and her heartbeat jumped into her throat.

The original destination had to be diverted in pursuit of death, and the RV also drove in an unpredictable direction.

The loud noise behind him was getting closer.

Wen Qizhou gripped the steering wheel tightly, without even having time to glance at the rearview mirror, he gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

Just as the road was turning, a spinning meteorite fell in front of the car, splashing countless flying rocks and hitting the front of the car.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and he subconsciously turned the steering wheel to the side, causing the RV to suddenly fall into the lake.

"Ah—"

People in the back seat who were not wearing seat belts found it difficult to maintain their balance and tilt forward as the front of the car plunged into the lake.

"Hold on tight!" Xie Changxiao shouted, hugging Xunsong who was closest to him, and holding on to the table legs with all his strength.

The rest of the people tried to find ways to steady their steps.

"Yueyue, how are you?" Wen Qizhou, who hit his forehead on the steering wheel, endured the burning pain, unbuckled his seat belt, and stepped towards the co-pilot to care about Chi Yue's condition.

"I am fine."

She just knocked her knees.

But she couldn't care about that much at the moment. She glanced solemnly at the surging lake outside the windshield, and using the shield of Wen Qizhou's body, she took out ten sets of diving equipment from the space.

There were no landlubbers present.

They didn't need to worry about the other people being afraid of the water and didn't dare to swim. They immediately walked to the back as soon as they picked up the diving equipment.

"Do you know how to use it?"

"know."

No one knew when they prepared the diving equipment, and they had no intention of asking.

After Mingzhang put on the diving goggles for the two apprentices and taught them how to use them, Wen Qizhou broke a car window that could accommodate one person through and took them out of the RV.

The meteorite carrying the fire tail is still falling.

When the meteorite hit the lake, the temperature of the lake rose for a moment, as if there were blazing fires burning in all directions, constantly delivering unbearable heat to them.

Chi Yue, who was wearing a respirator, couldn't utter a single word, so she could only slap the water around her to attract their attention.

She pointed at the front of the car.

It was not the best time to leave the lake now, so it would be safer for them to take shelter in a sturdy RV for a while.

Wen Qizhou understood what she wanted to express and swam in the direction of the front of the car with his arms.

The others followed.

They closed the distance to each other and stared at the rippling water of the lake in fear.

The fish that fled in a hurry were turned into blurry masses of flesh and blood under this unreasonable disaster, and the plants in the depths of the lake could not escape the fate of being ruthlessly crushed.

Xunsong stared blankly at the fish that was smashed to death by gravel not far away. The bright red blood was branded in his eyes. He later felt fear and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Mingming, who had been holding him tightly, noticed his trembling body and silently raised his left hand to cover his eyes.

They kept diving deeper and changing positions with Wen Qizhou and Chi Yue to avoid being affected by flying gravel.

I don't know how long ago.

The surroundings gradually became quiet, and there was no longer the violent sound made when the meteorite hit the lake.

Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou were the first to rush upstream. They went to the water to observe the situation and made sure that the meteorite had really stopped. Then they turned back and gestured to everyone to follow.

Ten figures approached the lake shore.

The wet man sat on the shore of the lake with a puddle of water, took off his diving equipment, and took a deep breath.

"It's so scary..." Chi Yunyan put his hands behind his back, relaxed and leaned back and said, "I never thought that I would see such a small chance of a meteorite falling in my lifetime."

Chi Yue: "Who is not?"

They looked at the lake dotted with gravel, and the fear of surviving the disaster came to their hearts, and they were silent for a long time without speaking.

After taking a break, Yao Chengwei stood up and looked in the direction of the RV: "Let's pick up the supplies first?"

Zhao Peng responded: "I'll go with you."

"I'm afraid you two won't be able to catch all the fish." Xie Changxiao and Chi Yunyan then stood up and prepared to join them in the water.

The four of them put on their diving gear again.

While they were in the water, Wen Qizhou and Mingzhang went to the back of the lake and picked up a pile of branches to keep for fire.

Fortunately, the sun had not yet set, and the high temperature was approaching 45 degrees, so their wet clothes dried quickly.

Chi Yue untied her hair rope.

He turned his back to the scorching sun, basking in the long wet hair, and quietly watched the four people under the water dragging supplies and swimming ashore.

They used ropes to tie sacks containing pots and pans, vegetables and meats, seasonings, tents, sleeping bags and clothes, and dragged all the necessary items to the lake shore at once.

She and Wen Qizhou grabbed them, first pulled them up, and then picked up the heavy sacks that had been soaked in water. They placed the materials inside aside to bask in the scorching sun.

"We forgot to take the filter..." Zhao Peng, who was counting the supplies, suddenly realized that the filter had been left out.

"Then I'll swim again."

Yao Chengwei jumped into the water.

Following the location mentioned by Chi Yue, he got into the RV, found the filter and two buckets, and then slowly surfaced.

With the filter in hand, they scooped out a bucket of lake water, filtered it, placed it on the newly lit fire, and boiled it before drinking.

"What's for dinner?" Mingzhang, who was sorting out the ingredients, took out two pieces of soaked pork belly and put them aside alone.

"The barbecue is ready. It's convenient." They were all exhausted after struggling for so long, so they just wanted to eat some barbecue.Wen Qizhou helped cut the meat.

He put the sliced ​​pork belly into the plate, waited for Chi Yunyan to prop up two branches, put the long stainless steel grilling grid on the branches, and then picked up the meat slices one by one and placed them on the grilling grid.

Pork belly has a lot of oil, so there is no need to brush it with oil.

After the meat slices were roasted until golden brown, Sun Rui brought a bowl of lettuce, four plates of chili dipping sauce, and two plates of garlic slices and placed them between them, making it easier for them to wrap the meat with lettuce.

Waves of fragrance linger on the tip of the nose.

They pick up pieces of meat and dip them in some chili, or add two cloves of garlic, or put them directly on the lettuce, wrap them twice and eat them.

"Brother Zhou, what should I do with that RV? Should I pick it up or leave it alone?" Yao Chengwei asked vaguely.

"We'll see after tonight."

The car must be fished out.

But it was no easy task for them to drag the car up with their arm strength.

It is best to use Chi Yue's space to put the RV away first, and then find a location close to the lake shore to take it out.

Of course, this method cannot be talked about externally.

Wen Qizhou decided to wait until nightfall, when they all went into the tent and fell asleep, and then quietly came out with Chi Yue to do this.

"Okay." Yao Chengwei swallowed the pork belly and looked at the meteorite not far away: "It's okay to let it stay in the lake. If another meteorite falls, we can use it to block it for a while."

There is no suitable shelter nearby.

The building was completely vulnerable to the meteorite attack. Only by diving into the lake could it be considered slightly safer.

Sun Rui stared blankly at the gravel at her feet: "I wonder how the newly built base will be like? Can it withstand meteorites?"

"it should be OK?"

No one made it clear.

Chi Yue thought of Ge Qinyao and others who arrived at the grassland before them, and frowned, inevitably feeling a little anxious in her heart.

Or sensing her emotions, Wen Qizhou raised his arm slightly and placed his gentle palm on her back and patted her gently a few times.

"Don't think about it."

That warm voice brushed past her ears, like gurgling water flowing through her heart, inadvertently soothing Chi Yue's anxiety.

She pulled back from her thoughts.

Focus on the grill and stop thinking about the worst and disrupting the calm state that should be maintained.

*
Night falls.

Four sun-dried tents were pitched beside the lake. They went into the tents to change their clothes, then returned to sit in front of the fire.

Branches crackled in the fire.

Small sparks exploded, and crackling sounds were heard, breaking the silence around them.

Mingming proposed that everyone take turns to keep vigil, and the adult Yunqi also insisted on keeping vigil together, so everyone discussed that their master and apprentice and Chi Yunyan would keep the first round.

"It's almost ten o'clock." Mingzhang lowered his head and used the firelight to see the time on the dial clearly: "You should go and rest first."

"it is good."

Wen Qizhou took Chi Yue and stood up.

Just as he was about to enter the tent, he vaguely heard a cold sound breaking through the air, carrying sound waves from far to near.

His face turned pale: "The meteorite is coming!"

A meteorite fell rapidly, with a deafening bang, and slammed into the trees not far from them.

Gravel splashed.

Chi Yue, who was protected in his arms, looked up at the flash of fire in the sky and immediately told them to go into the water.

"Get in the water and get to the RV!"

The RV did not plunge into the depths of the lake.

Just as Yao Chengwei said in the evening, they could indeed use it to escape for a while.

They quickly put on their diving gear.

While running towards the lake shore, Yunqi accidentally tripped over a gravel at his feet and staggered about to fall forward.

Chi Yunyan and Mingzhang, who were walking on his left and right, realized that he was about to fall. They grabbed his arms and helped him stabilize his body, then ran towards the lake and jumped into the water with a plop.

They followed Chi Yue and dived down.

Sneaking around the RV, two or three meteorites with fire tails hit the lake, making a loud noise that shook the world.

Ripples appeared on the lake surface, as if an enraged dragon was venting its anger under the water, causing the entire lake to be hit by meteorites that suddenly fell, creating wind and waves.

Red light appeared.

Just like they were avoiding a meteorite for the first time, they adjusted their positions from time to time to avoid being affected by the debris it brought.

Wait for the outside world to calm down.

When the lake surface returned to calm, Chi Yue and Wen Qizhou took them to the surface and swam slowly towards the lake shore.

Everyone climbed up to the lake shore and collapsed on the ground.

"Too tired..." Xie Changxiao took off the diving goggles for Xunsong in his arms and wiped the water droplets on his face.

He panted, his eyes fell on the dripping water around him, and he said helplessly: "If I had known, I wouldn't have changed my clothes."

"It's a pity there was no 'Known'."

Chi Yue twisted the water from his clothes.

After a while, everyone slowly got up from the shore of the lake. They were covered in gravel in the lake water, like beef skewers sprinkled with cumin, but no one had the strength to brush it off.

Two of the tents we had set up earlier were collapsed by meteorites. There was not even a piece of cloth left, and they were all covered under the meteorites.

They couldn't help but sigh.

Yao Chengwei pushed his hair back into a slicked back and said quietly: "So this is pie in the sky."

Isn't it "pie"?

A lucky person is picked at random and sent to heaven.

Everyone was dumbfounded. The tense atmosphere was immediately broken by Yao Chengwei, and even the scared Xunsong smiled.

They entered the tents one after another to change clothes, wait for their wet hair to dry, and then squeezed into two tents to lie down and rest.

In the middle of the night, meteorites came fiercely.

The three people from Yao Chengwei who were keeping watch immediately woke everyone up, skillfully put on the diving equipment beside them, hurried to the lake, and plunged into the lake again.

……

The same steps and actions were repeated twice in the second half of the night, and they did not stop until the sky turned white.

When Chi Yue waited for them to enter the tent to catch up on their sleep, she jumped into the lake with dark circles under her eyes and put the RV into the space.

The car body remains tilted into the space, and the water in the car quickly flows out and is absorbed cleanly.

She swam to the shore and asked, "Where can I put the car?"

"That's where you are now." Wen Qizhou, who was standing on the shore "watching" Chi Yue, stretched out his hand to pull her up first.

Chi Yue used her strength to climb ashore.

With a thought, the RV appeared out of thin air, half hanging on the shore, with only the front of the car touching the rippled lake.

"Okay." She and Wen Qizhou walked towards the fire, not looking at the RV that could be pulled up with a rope. (End of chapter)
