Chapter 179 Go to the place closest to grandpa

The major earthquake in Ning County shocked the whole country.

Chi Xiaoye ran to the TV and stared at the TV to see what was going on.

The news is just a picture of a telephone connection, which is an interview between a reporter and a local village chief.

"I don't know what's going on inside. The earthquake caused a landslide and blocked the road. Several villages inside had to go in and out on this road. The phone could not be reached, and people outside could not get in and out."

"Captain Zhu, is the disaster situation in your area serious?"

"I am not serious here, and it is impossible for me to accept your interview here if it is serious. Now I hope you can spread the news and let the country go in and save people as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you for taking care of yourself."

The screen cuts back to the anchor, and the anchor also has a solemn expression. He said a few blessings and then started broadcasting the next news.

No more? Where is the Ning County earthquake?

She squatted down in front of the TV, her whole body was trembling, she took out the remote control in panic, changed to a live news channel, and did not broadcast the news of the Ning County earthquake. However, an emergency notice appeared above almost every channel - "At 6:25 this morning, a magnitude 7.2 earthquake occurred in Ning County, and the current disaster situation is unknown."

Chi Xiaoye collapsed on the ground, and teardrops as big as beans hung from her eyes without warning. She trembled her hands, took out her cell phone, and called her grandfather over and over again.

But what came from the phone was - "Sorry, the phone you called was not in the service area."

Everyone's expressions became extremely heavy.

Zhao Zhouhan and Zhao Baichuan looked at each other and said, "Dad, I will say something to Xiaoye and leave."

Zhao Baichuan handed the fruit plate of his mobile phone to Zhou Chengcheng and turned around hurriedly, "Okay, I'll go back to the army first. You can hurry up and be on standby at any time."

"yes!"

Zhou Chengcheng hurriedly shouted, "Come back safely."

Zhao Baichuan did not look back, but just waved his hand back.

Zhao Zhouhan quickly ran to Chi Xiaoye, picked her up and placed her on the sofa. He held her face up and said worriedly: "Xiao Yezi, Xiao Yezi, look at me, look at me."

Chi Xiaoye looked at him, but his eyes were filled with tears, and he couldn't see him clearly.

Zhao Zhouhan wiped the tears from her face with his thumb and kept wiping it, "At home, please wait for news, and allow you to take a few days off and wait at home. Do you understand?"

"Sun Tianming, Sun Tianming, call Sun Tianming and try it, hurry up."

"I called it, no signal."

Chi Xiaoye couldn't accept it at all and cried: "My grandfather is in Ning County, right in Ning County... I'm going to Ning County..."

"Listen to me, listen to me, Ning County is very big, grandpa may not necessarily..."

"Then why can't I even get through the phone? Yesterday he told me that the rainy season has passed and the next few days will be sunny. I will go to visit my grandfather's grave early this morning." Chi Xiaoye said while crying, unable to imagine the scene when the earthquake came.

At around six o'clock in the morning, the early people have already gotten up, but most people are still in bed, either in Huizhou Gong, or stretching, and are about to welcome a new day.

Grandpa is a person who is used to getting up early, and this is the only thing she can hope for at the moment.

Zhao Zhouhan's cell phone rang, and he knew it.

"Hey...yes, I'll go back soon..."

He grabbed her shoulder and solemnly reminded: "I'm more informed than you. Whenever there is news from my grandfather, I will tell you, you are waiting at home, do you understand?"

Chi Xiaoye nodded crying, "Yes."

"Be good..." He kissed her, turned around and ran out of the door.

Zhou Chengcheng watched her husband leave and then watch her son leave. She chased her back and reminded her: "Son, you must come back safely."

Chi Xiaoye kept browsing his phone. In just a few minutes, the hot searches were all about the news of the Ning County earthquake, and all kinds of news were unknown.

She also tried to call her uncle and the second uncle, but the phone was not connected.

The old lady is a person who has seen strong winds and waves, so she is not as excited as Chi Xiaoye. However, when she saw Xiaoye crying so much that she was worried, she felt so distressed. The old man sat next to Chi Xiaoye, hugging her and accompanying her, and no words of comfort at this time were useless.

Zhou Chengcheng turned back, and he looked worried.

"Come on," the old lady waved at her, "Come here, sit down, let's wait for news together."

Zhou Chengcheng sat on the other side of Chi Xiaoye and reached out to hug Xiaoye and his mother-in-law. At this time, the only three of them were left at home to join the group to keep warm.

After a while, the news was broadcast live in the disaster area, but the broadcast was made by some relevant departments immediately dispatching rescue, or donating money and materials across the country. The real disaster situation in the epicenter has not yet been reported.

"Xiao Ye, remember, at this time, no news is good news, do you understand?"

Chi Xiaoye nodded, and her mother-in-law and grandma were encouraging her. She could feel it, but she just couldn't help but cry down.

When she was still in her infancy, her parents died. It was her grandfather who pulled her up. She didn't know what her parents felt like. She only knew that her grandfather was the best and best person in the world, her grandfather was the one who loved her the most, and her grandfather was also her most important person. Even Zhao Zhouhan could not compare.

At about noon, the news said that the first advance force had parachute into the epicenter. Through the picture sent back by the advance force, we can see that there was no complete house in a huge village. Wherever the camera went, there were ruins, all rows of houses collapsed, and a ruin was terrible.

Chi Xiaoye was watching live TV and browsing her phone. Suddenly, she found a message about recruiting volunteers. She gathered at the East Station at 1:00 pm and took the high-speed rail to the disaster area for rescue.

"Grandma, I want to go back to school."

"School? Isn't today a Sunday?"

"There are many people in the school and there are many students in Ning County. Maybe there is news. Maybe when the road is opened and the signal base station is repaired, my grandfather will call me to report safety."

"It's good that you can think so, let Xiao Yang send you there."

Chi Xiaoye hurriedly ran upstairs to get things and said, "No, it's very convenient for me to take a taxi. Don't let Brother Yang run."

She took her schoolbag, changed her shoes, and ran away.

It’s not that she is disobedient, not that she is willful, nor that she is reckless. She just wants to go to the place closest to her grandfather, regardless of whether her grandfather is safe or not.

On the way, she called Yin Qianfan, "Hey, Qianfan, it's me, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

"We are so polite, just say it."

"I'm going to Ning County now. At one high-speed rail, please help me ask Director Gao for a leave."

"Is this... OK?"

"Can you all do this? I have to go."

"Xiao Ye, calm down."

"No, Qianfan, I have to go."

Yin Qianfan took a few deep breaths and stopped persuading her, "Okay, I will take care of my leave, even if Director Gao punished me, I will admit it. Xiao Ye, please take care of me."
