An Yan searched around, but he did not find anything wrong. Then, his attention was attracted by the strange surroundings, and he no longer thought about those difficult things. There was a fire not far away. It seemed to be a shopping mall. He had bought a holiday promotion toothpaste there. Many of the things inside were flammable. It looked like the fire was very strong. However, what made him curious was why there was no fire brigade to put out the fire. Although the county was not big, the fire brigade was still pretty good.
Usually, it was rare for one or two people to walk here at night, but now there were many people looking around on the street, especially some men who were only wearing underwear. People gathered together and discussed. There were no lights around. Perhaps there was a blackout, only some flashlights were shining. The moon in the sky was passable. Although it was not very bright, he could roughly see the figures nearby.
" Brother, did you see that? The fireballs in the sky were like red raindrops. They were densely packed. I heard a dozen loud noises. Look at those places that were on fire. They were all hit by meteors." The voice belonged to a young man.
"Really? I was sleeping just now. I heard a loud noise and the house shook twice. Our house can't withstand a big battle. Are you sure it's a meteor and not a missile?？”
"Big brother, how much is the missile? Which military region can throw missiles at us? Besides, even if they do, they can't throw them at us. Isn't it good to throw them at the Japanese?”
"Could it be that the heavens are angry? I haven't burned incense for the heavens even after moving to the county all these years. Aiya, I don't know if it's too late now.”It seemed like an elderly woman was shouting. Young people generally wouldn't burn incense and kowtow. This kind of feudal superstition only existed among some old people.
" The apocalypse is coming. Maybe the 2012 apocalypse has been postponed. Haha, I like it." An Yan saw that the person who spoke was a 14 or 15-year-old loli. Just as she finished speaking, she was interrupted by a woman beside her. After being scolded for a while, the little girl snorted unwillingly. A man next to them moved the flashlight away and said something to the two of them. The two of them stopped talking.
An Yan picked up the flashlight on the ground. The flashlight was still on. He took out his second-hand phone from his pocket. It was 12:20 now, so he had not been unconscious for long. At most, it had been ten minutes. Fortunately, the flashlight was not stolen. He was a little happy. He was really lucky to not lose any property. Then he thought that it might be because the impact of the meteor was too great, and there was no electricity. No one noticed him lying here.
"Fortunately, fortunately!"
He shook his slightly dizzy head and looked up at the place where the fire was. There were several flames.
"Bad luck, I mourn for you!”An Yan was about to leave, but something didn't seem right. He looked at a fire not far away. It didn't seem to be far from his rented place.
"It's almost time to go to work. Do you want to go to work now or go to your residence to take a look?”An Yan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he decided to go to his residence first. All his belongings were there, so he did not want to be affected by the fire. As for work, he could just call the director and ask for some time off.
"Beep toot!"
Couldn't get through? An Yan looked at the phone. Although it was second-hand, this iPhone was very sturdy and there had been no problems. Looking carefully, there was actually no signal!
"Your sister! There was actually no signal here. What was the use of moving?”
An Yan had no choice. He looked at the time and saw that there was still some spare time. This was thanks to his usual habit of arriving early. Run away. I'll only be at ease when I go back and take a look.
He felt that something was wrong when he started running. He felt that his body was much stronger than before. He was no longer a bean sprout that would pant after running two steps. At least he could be called a strong bean sprout now, right? He didn't think about why it was like this, because the uncomfortable feeling came again. At this time, he had already run twice as far as usual. He took in large breaths of air and could already see the rented house. There were many people gathered there, making a lot of noise. There were even some people who kept calling and cursing.
"It's over. All my belongings!”
An Yan's legs, which had already been filled with lead, seemed to have regained their strength. He screamed and rushed towards where he lived. The place was already on fire. The roofs of the old houses were all made of wood. The fire was fierce, and one could feel the heat from afar.
"Aiya, young man, you can't go now. Even if there's anything, it'll be burned away.”
There were many people in front of him, so An Yan couldn't really run in without caring. As soon as he slowed down, an uncle in his forties or fifties pulled him back. Although his strength seemed to have improved compared to before, it wasn't much. He was still a little weaker than this uncle. A few aunties beside him also stopped An Yan.
"Young man, if you lose your money, you can earn it again. If you lose your life, everything is over.”
"Yes, yes. If you go in like this and can't take out the things, I'm afraid you can't come out either. If you want to go in, you have to make a blanket wet. I saw it on TV. Why are you all looking at me? I haven't tried it out before. It's just a suggestion, a suggestion."
Being stopped like this, An Yan didn't have the courage to go in and risk his life. If one were to talk about his little fortune, it really wasn't worth risking his life. It was just some clothes and a 50-yuan computer. The rest were just some old books. If he really lost his life because of those things, it wouldn't be worth it, but it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel heartache. Perhaps to others, they could throw out a lot of junk every year, but to An Yan, it was all bought with money. Without a computer, he could just stop playing, but without clothes, what was he going to wear? There was only 500 yuan in his card now. Adding the 35 yuan he had on him, he only had 530 yuan. Now that he had lost his place to live, he had to find a house, buy clothes, and eat. What was 500 yuan enough for? How was he going to spend this month?
For a moment, his mind was in turmoil. Why was this happening? Why did it make him, who was already embarrassed, even sadder? The anger in his heart slowly accumulated. He hated, hated the heavens for being unfair, hated himself for being so useless!
Initially, the white light made his mind feel uncomfortable, but with this surge of anger, the white light quickly fused into An Yan's mind. It was like a bolt of lightning in his mind, waking him up.
" Slam, a cruel attack that deals 145% weapon damage and 20% chance to knock back the enemy. Each attack will generate 6 Rage.”
A sentence flashed, followed by many pictures. These pictures were all of a burly man who was more than 2.6 meters tall. He had shaved his head, leaving only a small braid at the back of his head. The muscles on his body were tangled. He was holding a big sword, a big hammer, an axe, etc. His every attack was as fast as lightning, as if it broke through space. Even as a bystander, An Yan felt a kind of pressure, a kind of spiritual pressure. It was as if the person in front of him was an ancient ferocious beast. He was charmed by that valiant movement and wild style. However, the burly man's movements were too fast. He often returned to his original position in the blink of an eye and then continued his original movements. He could not see clearly at all. He was anxious and subconsciously hoped that the burly man's movements would be slower. What made him excited was that the movements were really slow. He kept adjusting and finally could see the burly man's movements clearly. In each picture, the burly man came and went with the same few moves, which were respectively a top-down slash, a diagonal slash, and a horizontal sweep. Although the posture was simple, after careful observation, he saw a red energy passing through the burly man's body. It finally flowed into the burly man's hand and entered the weapon. The circulation of the red energy was slightly different in each position. It started from the heart, or directly flowed to the hands, or passed through the waist and legs. He could not help but secretly memorize it.
"Hey, is the young man alright?" Seeing An Yan staring blankly at the sea of fire, the uncle thought that he couldn't take the blow.
He was pulled out of that state in an instant, but An Yan couldn't get angry. He could only reply,"Oh, it's okay, it's okay."”
The uncles and aunties beside him were still trying to persuade him. An Yan stopped struggling and said to the enthusiastic uncles and aunties,"Thank you, thank you. I was too impulsive just now."”
"See, that's right. Money is just a worldly possession. It's better not to value it too much. Young people have a good future.”The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Aiya, you made me so worried just now. How can such a big fire go in? Peace is a blessing!" A middle-aged woman with curly hair said to An Yan.
Under the light of the fire, An Yan could only accept their teachings. It could be said that they had saved his life just now, so he was not impatient at all.
"Thank you, Uncle and Auntie. I'll go put out the fire.”
He couldn't go to the place where the fire broke out. Now that the water supply had stopped, he didn't have the awareness to sacrifice himself for the greater good.
There were many people gathered in front of them. There seemed to be someone trapped underneath. Many people were helping to move things, and some were calling the police, but they couldn't get through. It was very chaotic there. Many people had already gone to help. He ran over as well. Although he wasn't very familiar with the people here, he was still a neighbor. He moved the bricks and beams with others and temporarily left those that couldn't be moved. The houses here were quite old. The roofs were supported by trees, not cement boards. However, the weight was not something that a few people could move. Moreover, they were pressed down by bricks and other things. This house was still in good condition, but it was knocked down by the shock of the meteorite landing. If it was set on fire like An Yan's rented house, it would be even worse. The people inside would probably not be able to survive.
An Yan thought as he moved the things. Someone beside him lit up the place with a flashlight.
Not long after, the fire department finally arrived. The police and the people worked together to finally save the unconscious child. At this time, An Yan was already exhausted, but he was very surprised. According to his previous physical strength, he should have rested long ago, but he persisted until now.
With a few blisters on his hand and a stab wound on his left thumb, An Yan and the others dispersed after a sorrowful middle-aged man thanked them.
He still had things to settle. He hadn't settled the job yet. It wasn't easy for him to find that job, so he couldn't lose it. After thinking it through, he rushed to the factory. He was thinking about how to explain his lateness, and he was worried that his bonus for this month would be gone. When he arrived at the factory, he saw many people at the gate.
"What's wrong, Master Huang?" He approached the crowd and said to a middle-aged man in his forties. The man was called Huang Ningshan. He had studied under Master Huang for a period of time.
"Oh, it's Little Zhang. The old master in the factory has been affected by the vibration, so we're all waiting here to see if we can still start work today.”
The " Old Master " that Huang Ningshan mentioned was a very old machine. It was about six or seven years old, but this machine was very important. Without it, most of the equipment in the factory would have to stop working. However, this thing was imported and expensive. The leaders had discussed for two years but could not decide to buy a new one. They were as careful as if they were serving a boss, afraid that something would go wrong. No matter how careful they were, it was difficult to avoid a natural disaster.
