Chapter 1399: There Really Is an Earthquake (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yan Zhengming wasn’t scared by the idea of an earthquake, but he was shocked by Yang Kun’s sudden loss of composure and yell. Fortunately, he was a steady driver, and wasn’t like Yang Kun, who had been so frightened he almost crashed the van into a tree. His face fell and he was about to speak, when he saw Shenglin and Yang Kun hurriedly call the rest of the film crew anxiously and tell them to follow their car and not fall behind if they didn’t want to die.

When the dozen or so people driving behind suddenly heard Manager Yang and Film Emperor Ruan’s harsh words, they didn’t dare delay any longer. They hurriedly stepped on the gas and closed the distance between them.

Yan Zhengming vaguely heard someone repeatedly ask Yang Kun in a panic, “Is there really going to be an earthquake? Brother Yang!”

“Yes, yes… there really is.” Yang Kun thought of Brother Wu’s words about the ‘earthquake.’ He subconsciously thought of the abnormally huge magnitude 7.7 earthquake which the country experienced decades ago. His whole body never stopped shuddering. His face was deathly pale. His voice shook and he swallowed his saliva, wanting to give out a few more words of advice.

Next to him, Shenglin did his best to feign calm and replied to the others, saying that there would probably be an earthquake above magnitude 9 in the next few days. He instructed them to follow him, but there was no need to panic too much. They still had time to leave the village.

Ruan Shenglin’s assertion about the magnitude 9 earthquake not only scared the rest of the crew witless, it also completely stupefied Yang Kun. Yang Kun choked and almost fainted on the spot.

He was already afraid of an earthquake above magnitude 7, let alone one that was above magnitude 9. He simply didn’t dare imagine it. As for what Shenglin said, he didn’t doubt it at all. It was something which Master Chi had probably told him earlier. Yang Kun revered Master Chi like a god and didn’t doubt her at all.

Thinking this, Yang Kun panicked even more. Cold anxiety welled up inside him, his eyes turned red and his face turned pale and wan. His only thought now was to hurry and leave this village in the next second.

The more Yang Kun thought about it, the more scared he became. His hands and lips trembled violently, and he immediately shouted at Yan Zhengming, “Zhengming, Old Yan, drive faster, faster, follow Master Chi and the others. You must follow Master Chi and the others.”

Yang Kun’s whole body was tense. He rolled down the window and stared fixedly in front of him as he complained that Yan Zhengming was driving too slowly. When he saw Master Chi’s car after a long while, Yang Kun regained some of his senses and gradually calmed down. However, he still complained that Yan Zhengming was driving too slowly. He told him to drive faster, and even cursed.

It was Ruan Shenglin who appeased him. As for the others, he told them what he knew. Although he didn’t overreact like Yang Kun, his entire face was dark and looked terrible.

Yan Zhengming: …

Cao Zhengsong, Song Chu, Du Lan, and Ke Mingmei: …

Who knew if it was because of Yang Kun’s last curse, but Yan Zhengming, who had been driving at a steady speed, was really scared by Yang Kun’s excessive reaction. Without saying anything, he floored the gas and the van picked up speed. The others in the car didn’t have time to chat anymore, and were scared out of their wits by Yan Zhengming’s sudden speed.

It wasn’t until Yan Zhengming’s car was close on the heels of Master Chi’s car, and even almost overtook it several times, that Yan Zhengming realized what a stupid thing he had just done.

He, a good citizen, actually sped!

Chi Shuyan didn’t know that because of Wu Haoming’s bombshell just now, the people in Yang Kun’s car were in an uproar. Xu Tong, on the other hand, sat in the back and rolled down the window. When she saw the familiar van that had caught up with them and was following closely behind their car, Xu Tong’s eyes lit up. When they were neck and neck just now, she had even seen her husband. She called out a few times, but her husband didn’t hear her.

Seeing that they had finally caught up, Xu Tong heaved a sigh of relief. She was no longer worried, and a smile appeared on her face. She even took the initiative to chat with Chi Shuyan.

Chi Shuyan took a few glances in the rearview mirror and relaxed when she saw that the car behind had caught up. She pursed her lips and said to Wu Haoming, “They’ve caught up. We can speed up a little now.”

“No problem, Sister-in-law!”

Wu Haoming immediately stepped on the gas to speed up. He stared at the dark and quiet night outside and felt a little uneasy for some reason.

There was no movement at all in Dashan Village tonight, which was strange. Wu Haoming brought it up.

Chi Shuyan stared at the dark night outside and said coldly, “We’ll deal with whatever comes our way!”

Feng Yuanlin was still a little worried about Zhenbai and evacuating the villagers. These two things weighed heavily on his heart.

Feng Yuanlin didn’t say anything and just stared at Shuyan. He didn’t think that Shuyan was someone who would leave someone to die, nor did he think of doubting her. Besides, Shuyan had agreed with him before when he mentioned evacuating the villagers. As for why she hadn’t done anything, she probably had her reasons.

As a police officer, Feng Yuanlin was righteous and dedicated, but not a saint. He was also rational and smart, and didn’t want to implicate and get more people killed because of his stupid actions.

It was just that this was a serious matter. He pondered for a moment and felt uneasy, and asked worriedly, “Shuyan, is there another reason why the villagers can’t evacuate with us?”

Feng Yuanlin’s mention of the others in the village also drew Xiao Shan, Wu Haoming and Xu Tong’s attention. Speaking of which, they had been so focused on escaping that they had forgotten about the villagers. Thinking this, they really felt a little ashamed.

Xu Tong was the most soft-hearted, especially when she thought of those cute children in the village. At the thought that they had forgotten to notify them of an earthquake in the village, her face turned pale and she hurriedly said worriedly, “What about those villagers and the children?”

Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised by how sharp Brother Feng was. Seeing that Brother Feng’s face had been dark and he had something on his mind the whole time, she had a pretty good guess of what it might be. She took in the expressions of the others and suddenly said, “What if I tell you that they’re all dead?” After a pause, she said, “Since they’re dead, how can we save them?”
