You Xi understood after hearing this.

Both roads leaving the fishing village pass through the foot of the mountain. If they cannot leave before the volcano erupts, given the distance between the mountain and them, they will be completely blocked here. Even if they are not hit by the erupting volcanic rocks,

Will be swallowed by magma...

There is also volcanic ash. Volcanic ash is not soot, but small particles that are insoluble in water. Inhalation into the lungs can cause damage to the respiratory tract.

Lava, ejecta, volcanic ash, and gas balls are all very harmful, and they need to leave here immediately!

"Hurry up, don't hesitate! Don't take chances! Put on warm clothes, pack some water in your backpack, and if you have gas masks, goggles, masks, etc., also bring them, and wet towels!" You Xi reminded a few words, and immediately

Turn around and run outside the house.

Tang Yatong had already driven the SUV outside the gate, with You Qi in the back seat.

They had not taken off their clothes. After being woken up by her, they immediately forced themselves to wake up, put on their shoes, put on the two backpacks that Tang Yatong took out from the space, zipped up their coats, rolled out of the window, got in the car, started, and drove

Go to the door.

As soon as they stopped, they saw two young men running out of the house and heading straight to their pickup truck. After opening the door, they turned on the headlights on the roof and pressed the horn hard.

Two long and one short, then pause, and then continue with two long and one short, and repeat. This is the alarm signal negotiated by their village to remind everyone of the incoming meteorite.

There are people keeping vigil in the village every night. If something goes wrong, they will immediately honk their horns and turn on their car lights.

When the two young men from the girl's family did this, all the ten or so families in the small village woke up. They hurriedly put on their clothes and planned to run down the slope next to the cliff.

Under another cliff opposite the ramp, under the cliff there is not the sea, but a gravel beach. There is a small cave there, which is just right for them to hide.

But just after a few villagers ran out, they noticed something unusual.

They remembered that another family was keeping vigil tonight, but now it was the Dana brothers who were sounding the alarm. What was going on?

At this time, another person who was sitting on the roof to watch the night came down from the ladder: "What's wrong? There is no meteorite! Everything is normal, why did you suddenly sound the alarm?"

The two young men explained in a few words, thinking that everyone would take action immediately, just like their family, but the other villagers looked at each other for a moment with incomprehensible expressions.

"Where's the roar coming from?"

"Yes, I don't smell sulfur, only the smell of sea water!"

"Smoke? Are you dreaming? Where is the smoke? Isn't it fine during the day?"

Some people glanced in the direction of the mountain behind, but in such a dark midnight, there were not enough lights around, and the distance was so far that they couldn't see anything clearly.

A sturdy middle-aged man stood up. From his appearance, he seemed to be the village chief of this small village: "Did you get frightened by the meteorite attack before? What about the volcanic eruption for no reason? Life is so difficult now, don't

To add this kind of trouble to everyone, if you have the energy to repair the fishing boat as soon as possible, this is the only boat left in the village that can go to sea. The other two fishing boats in the village were destroyed. You said that everyone can use this fishing boat, and everyone will help.

I'll wait for you to bring the fishing boat up from the ramp. Life is difficult now. If you don't go to sea, you won't even be able to eat soon..."

As soon as the village chief said this, everyone immediately agreed.

You Qi and Tang Yatong didn't understand what was being said over there. They were actually confused. After getting in the car, they found that there was no meteorite coming or an earthquake. They didn't understand why You Xi was so nervous.

But they believed in her and had a tacit understanding, so they did it immediately even if they didn't know the reason.

You Xi briefly explained the matter to them while distractedly listening to the conversation there.

She lamented in her heart that since ancient times, the reason why many people have died in disasters is not because there is not enough time to escape, but because when there is still enough time, no one believes it, thinking it is false news, and only believes what they want to believe.

Things that are self-righteous will eventually cost you your life.

Although You Xi didn't want the villagers in this fishing village to lose their lives for no reason, she was not the Holy Mother. Others would not believe or listen, but she still rushed to be God and gave her sincere advice.

After all, she didn't know them at all, so the reminder and warning had been enough. Her real responsibility was to take good care of You Qi and Tang Yatong and bring them back to the country safely.

The only thing that attracted her attention was the Dana family, mainly because of that girl—Olicia.

But fortunately, because of their previous friendship, and probably because she looked too nervous and serious when she burst into their room just now, while the two young people from the Dana family were still persuading, the Dana couple had already brought their packed backpacks.

Pulling Olicia out of the house.

Behind them were other members of their family, most of whom were young adults - this was a prosperous family.

Most of them hadn't figured out what was going on, but because of the anxious and frightened expressions of the Dana couple, they followed them and packed their backpacks.

While the Dana family and the villagers were still arguing, You Xi, who had just gotten into the SUV and was about to let Tang Yatong drive, heard strange noises again.

"Wait a minute -" She held down Tang Yatong's hand and asked her to turn off the car, then opened the car window and listened carefully.

This time, it was not a roar like before, but a sound similar to boiling water - or in other words, a thicker flowing substance was breaking through certain barriers upwards, making a sound that was about to break through.

…

"It won't be so fast..." Before coming to this world this time, she had researched information on volcanic eruptions online. Generally, volcanic eruptions have a brewing period, but this is obviously not the case now.

You Xi has never really experienced a volcanic eruption, and she understands that it is impossible for all volcanoes to be in the same situation, especially this extinct volcano that was hit by a meteorite many days ago. It is hard to say what the specific situation is.

She didn't dare to ask for help, so she asked Tang Yatong to wait, then quickly got out of the car and ran to the Dana couple.

They had already packed Olicia into the car. They all threw their backpacks into the back of the car and were about to get into the car one by one. The seats in front were given to the women and the men all got into the car.

"Don't worry yet!" She gestured and asked Olicia's father, "The road you mentioned before that you can take us tomorrow, how long will it take from here to around the foot of the mountain?"

The other party knew that at such a critical moment, there must be a reason for every word she asked. After hearing this, she immediately put aside her nervousness and concentrated on thinking: "There are several forks in the road from here that are difficult to recognize. During the day,

It takes a lot of effort to find it, and it takes even longer at night, plus the time it takes to get around the foot of the mountain after leaving... three hours! It takes at least three hours to get around the foot of the mountain, plus leaving the area of ​​the outbreak, it takes at least five

Hour!"

You Xi felt cold. She grabbed the Dena couple and said solemnly: "Listen carefully to me. My hearing and eyesight are better than ordinary people. I don't think we have five hours left. One or two at most."

Hour.

You can't take the two mountain roads leaving here. It's too risky. If there is an eruption in the middle, you will be sent towards the crater! The only way now is to leave by water - "

You Xi's words frightened the other party. When he heard the word waterway, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope: "Yes, we can take the waterway! We have a boat! But - the boat has not been repaired yet!"

"It's just that the deck is not ready yet, so we should be able to go into the water, right?"

"You can go into the water - but not only the deck, but also several parts have not been installed. If you don't install them properly, you can't open the water even if you go into the water!" This place is so close to the volcano, even if you go into the water and can't open the water, you will still be within the range of the eruption.

Inside.

Thinking of this, the other party slapped his head in annoyance, hating himself for not working harder to repair the boat before.

"Don't worry, it's just parts. It should be installed quickly. Olivia showed me your warehouse. The fishing boat can fit all of us in a squeeze. I don't know how you got it from the bay before.

It was shipped up, but now I need you to work together to find a way to repair it in two hours and then transport it to the seaside again. Can it be done?"

It was probably You Xi's clear and organized appearance that calmed the other party down. The other party nodded and immediately pulled over several family members and started giving instructions.

Everyone in the Dena family went to repair the fishing boat, and no one had the time to persuade other villagers and the village chief. When the other villagers saw this, they complained a few times, and then went back to the house to sleep.

At You Xi's signal, Tang Yatong parked the SUV next to a tall warehouse. This warehouse was close to their house and had only two walls. The other two sides were only supported by pillars, so you could clearly see the young adults of the Dana family opening the warehouse.

The headlight was quickly rolled into the cabin and began emergency repairs.

You Xi leaned on the car and frowned.

They don't have a boat. If they had a boat, they wouldn't need to wait passively here.

However, the vehicle space in the Star House warehouse can only accommodate up to two pieces. RVs and SUVs have their own roles when traveling through no man's land. Even if they had obtained a boat before, it would be difficult to choose between them.

She is still too poor!

If there are enough star coins to continue upgrading the star house, she believes that there will be different changes in the star house warehouse.

Tang Yatong lit a cigarette with slightly trembling hands, leaned against the pillar and started smoking. You Qi glanced at her frowning sister and gently hugged her shoulders.

As time passed, You Xi's brows became more and more tense, because she was the only one who could clearly hear and see the changes in the volcano.

An hour later, even others who didn't have super senses like her discovered the changes in the volcano.

The originally subtle roar became louder and louder until everyone could hear it, and the smell of sulfur spread in the air, clearly reaching everyone's nose.

"Mom, I smell the smell of the volcano that my sister said..." Olicia leaned on her mother's arms, her face pale.

The woman holding her tightened her arms and couldn't help but turn around and urge: "Hurry up! How long will it take?"

"Wait ten more minutes!" the man replied, and then ordered the brother beside him to inform the village chief and ask other villagers to come over and prepare the round logs used to transfer the fishing boat downhill and prepare to transport the boat down the bay.

Use a car to tow the fishing boat, place a round log under the fishing boat, and gather everyone's help to safely transport the fishing boat to the beach.

Of course, when going uphill, the fishing boat has to be towed by the car. When going downhill, the car has to drag the fishing boat behind to prevent the boat from sliding down the ramp and being damaged.

The young man ran out of the warehouse to call for help. The villagers had already woken up to the warning of the night watchman. Everyone discovered the changes in the volcano. They all walked to the open space with frightened faces and looked at the dark mountain peaks behind.

It was about three o'clock in the morning, it was very dark, and they still couldn't see clearly what was happening on the top of the mountain, but they could hear a sound, like a dull roar coming from the mountain, which was extremely scary.

This time, no one blamed the Dana family for causing problems. They ran home in a panic and started to pack their things, money, valuables, clothes, food... But there were so many things in the house, this was the only thing they had.

Some property, they wanted to take away everything, and they were so panicked and confused that they didn't know how to get it.

Not many people followed the young man back to prepare the logs to transport the boat. You Xi looked at the volcano, then walked to the cliff to look at it. From here to the sea, there was a drop of about seven or eight meters.

She immediately ran back and asked Olicia's mother: "How deep is the water under the cliff?"

"...At least three or four meters, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." Three or four meters should be enough.
To be continued...
