"Lingling..."
A burst of rapid electric ringing sound came into my ears, and Wang Yi was shocked and suddenly woke up.
"Why am I asleep?"
Wang Yi was still a little confused, his mind was like a sludge, but he subconsciously reached out his hand to touch his pocket, because the string of rapid electric ringtones was the incoming call ringtone of his mobile phone.
However, as soon as Wang Yi moved his hand, he found something on his hand. He looked closely and saw a bronze ring on his palm. The ring looked quite worn, but when he put it on his hand, he felt a hint of coolness oozing out, which made him feel a particularly comfortable feeling.
Looking at the ring, Wang Yi immediately became much more awake and remembered some of the things before, but there were many details that were extremely vague, especially he couldn't remember what the grandmother said at all, and he couldn't even remember what he looked like. He only knew that the ring was given to him by the grandmother, so he exchanged the small black square.
Wang Yi could not understand what was going on, and the rapid electric ringtone came from his pocket again, and he subconsciously took out his phone.
"Third brother, why did you take the phone call so long? I said, don't delay, hurry up and come to the outdoor music station. I'll set up a bureau here to celebrate your sister Rao's birthday."
What came from the phone was a familiar voice from Wang Yi. The owner of the voice was named Zhou Qingdong. He was a buddy from Wang Yi's four years of college, and he could also be said to be Wang Yi's elder brother.
Zhou Qingdong is a native of City C. His father works in the Provincial Department of Finance, his mother works in business, and his family is well-off. Zhou Qingdong is generous and sincere to his friends. He takes good care of Wang Yi in college. Moreover, every time Wang Yi fights with others, he is busy and brings a group of buddies to cheer. From the perspective of his friends, Zhou Qingdong is really unspeakable.
But when Wang Yi heard Zhou Qingdong's words, he was a little lost. The figure that was so obsessed with involuntarily appeared in his mind, and he was absent-minded for a moment.
At this moment, a voice changed from the other end of the phone. This sound as nice as a spring water made Wang Yi come to his senses.
"Okay, Xiaoyi, I even forgot my sister's birthday. It's time to punish me! I'll come later and say nothing, you can have three drinks first."
Listening to this voice, Wang Yi's hand holding the phone tightened a little, his breathing was a little rapid, and his heart beat faster. For many years, whenever Wang Yi heard this sound, or saw the owner of the sound, he would involuntarily do so.
Wang Yi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. When the sound on the phone settled, he opened his mouth and was about to say something, but at this moment, there was a loud "bang" sound, and he rushed into his ears from outside the car and from the phone at the same time. There was only a buzzing sound in Wang Yi's ears.
The sudden loud noise made Wang Yi a little confused, but the calmness given by the fighting left him with a hint of clarity.
What happened? What happened?!
Wang Yi looked out the window, but before he could find the reason, he felt the bus suddenly swaying, and he was about to be thrown out of his seat in an instant. Fortunately, Wang Yi was agile and his left hand flashed out, grabbed the back of the seat in front, and barely stabilized his body.
earthquake?
Wang Yi seemed to understand the reason why the bus suddenly flipped, just because he saw that the cars in the road ahead were all swung one by one. Although the amplitude was not large, they all briefly left the ground. This situation was very similar to the scenes of some major earthquakes he saw on TV.
But after a moment, Wang Yi denied his guess. His pupils suddenly shrank, and then he sank his body down regardless of the matter, to get under the seat. After that, a surging wave of air rolled past the bus with a strong wind.
Kakka...
As the air waves rolled over, countless cracks appeared on the windows of the bus, as if they were about to break open, but they did not explode directly after all, and the situation did not seem to be that bad. But then, the situation in the car took a sharp turn!
"Dong!"
With a dull sound, the bus that was thrown away from the ground fell to the ground again. With the vibration of contact with the ground, the windows that were already covered with spider-like cracks exploded. In an instant, countless fine glass slags splashed everywhere, filling the entire car, and a shrill scream suddenly sounded in the car.
Wang Yi avoided the splashing glass slag due to his advance avoidance, and only fell on his back a little. It didn't matter, but Wang Yi's situation was absolutely not good.
It’s still because of that wave of air!
The surging air waves not only almost shattered the bus windows, but also made the bus's center of gravity unbalanced, making it even more like pushing the bus towards the roadside.
Therefore, the bus landed on the right first, and due to the thrust generated by the air wave and the shift of its center of gravity, it turned towards the roadside. In this way, Wang Yi, who was unable to defend, suddenly fell into the car like a rolling gourd.
Fortunately, there are parking spaces on both sides of Fulin Road, and the buses were full of cars. The bus that was about to dump was pressed on a Ford Raptor pickup truck and a Toyota cruiser off-road vehicle next to it, and finally stopped the momentum of overturning.
‘Buzz buzz…’
Wang Yi, who was stuck between the two rows of seats, felt dizzy, everything he saw in his eyes was filled with a heavy shadow, and the sound of trembling in his ears was a vague scream. He shook his head hard, trying to wake himself up.
He fell heavily during the bus overturn just now, but fortunately he curled up and protected the vital parts of his body with his hands, so he did not cause any serious injuries.
After a while, Wang Yi felt much more awake, so he stretched out his left hand to grab the back of the seat next to him, and then supported it with his right hand. He stood up in the tilted car with his body bent. He didn't have time to check the injuries on his body, and he didn't care about the screams in the car, but he immediately took his phone to his ear and said loudly: "Li Rao, can you hear it?"
Wang Yi's face was full of anxiety. So far, he had roughly guessed what happened. The "big noise", "earthquake", and "air waves" connected these together, reminding Wang Yi of the shell explosion that his grandfather had told him countless times. Wang Yi thought that everything in front of him was probably because of a large amount of explosions in front of him. Wang Yi had also seen the congested cars on the road ahead invisibly washed away from left and right, and countless windows burst, so he urgently avoided it.
According to the direction of the source of the air wave, Wang Yi judged that the explosion should be at Wanda Plaza, and the outdoor music platform is the destination of the next stop of the bus. Although the outdoor music platform is located in a street and alley and is not directly opposite Wanda Plaza, the straight line distance is closer than Wang Yi’s current location. How can Wang Yi not worry?
However, Wang Yi's anxious voice was not responded. Although he shouted twice again, the only sound of "squeaking" electric current came from his phone.
"Li Rao...you must not have something wrong!"
Wang Yi held the phone tightly, his eyes turned a little red. He could no longer calm down. Even if Wang Yi could still keep a little calmer now, he would only laugh at himself: "It's been like this long ago, right?"
Wang Yi did not delay any longer, checked the situation in the car and looked for a place to leave the bus. As his eyes turned, all the scenes in the car came into view.
The bus driver was lying on the ground and howled, with hundreds of broken glass tied around her body, and the trickle of blood dyed him bloody. Next to the bus driver, two middle-aged men fell to the ground and died. Another young woman grabbed the armrest with her left hand, leaned on the front seat, and looked down at her legs. There was a piece of glass as big as a palm-sized piece of glass stuck in the inner side of her right leg. The red blood flowed all over the ground. Perhaps it was sensed Wang Yi's gaze. The young woman raised her head and looked at Wang Yi, her pale lips slightly opened.
"Save me."
The sound was extremely slight, like a mosquito and flies, and the large amount of blood loss had already made the young woman extremely weak, but Wang Yi could still hear her call for help clearly.
Wang Yi closed his eyes unbearably and then turned his head to the other side. If this was just a simple traffic accident, even if the artery on the young woman's thigh was cut open and it would be difficult to survive, Wang Yi would still save her. But Wang Yi could not do this now, because he was concerned about Li Rao, who was more important than his own life.
"Bang."
Wang Yi supported himself with his hand, stepped on the edge of the window frame, and walked a few steps towards the rear of the car. The last window at the rear of the car was next to the rear of the Toyota cruiser. There was a gap in half of the window. Wang Yi jumped out through the gap in the half of the window, and his whole body fell steadily to the ground, and then he put it in his body.
The street was already in chaos, and there were people lying on the streets wailing everywhere on the street. Unfortunately, these people were wailing but didn't get help. The panicked crowd ran around with terror and screams one after another. Wang Yi inadvertently saw an injured person lying on the street not far away, trampling back and forth like a meat pad, without any sound.
This sudden explosion had left no rules around Fulin Road. People who escaped the disaster were just scattered and fleeing. Wang Yi even saw a Hummer rushing left and right dozens of meters in front of the bus, knocking away all the vehicles around him, as if he wanted to break a road to escape.
Everything is in chaos!
Moreover, due to the impact of this explosion, many stores and street lights on the roadside were affected. There were no intertwined lights on Fulin Road that seemed like daylight. The only remaining lights illuminated the entire Fulin Road darkly. In such an environment, it really felt like the end of the world has come.
Looking at the scenes in front of him, Wang Yi couldn't stop twitching. He was even more worried about Li Rao. However, he was about to move, but a strange feeling arose in his heart. He stopped immediately and looked up.
This is?
Wang Yi was shocked. He saw that the place where Wanda Plaza was located in the distance, and countless green spots of light that looked like phosphorus and fire rose into the air. Soon, these spots of light passed through the highest building around the Global Building, the highest building around Fulin Road, and then hovered in the air, forming a huge grimace.
