Chapter 118: Start reading

Mu Hanxia turned on the table lamp, but it was not lit. She found out that there was a power outage. I walked into the bathroom and wanted to wash.
She left the room and went to the hotel desk. Many guests have gathered there, talking about the rain and water and electricity. The boss is not there, only a little girl is behind the bar.
"It's raining so much, doesn't the weather forecast say it's rainless? When can it stop?" A guest asked.
The girl replied, "I don't know. The weather in the mountains is inaccurate." She looked quite calm, as if she was used to this situation.
Another guest asked, "When will this be cut off?"
"It's hard to say, we'll stop running water and electricity here."
Since it is the top of the mountain, the girl must tell the truth. Everyone got here again and chatted for a while. Another guest came back from the outside and brought news that there were no food in several restaurants nearby-because of water and power cuts. Just bought a few tea eggs and they are sold out now. Fortunately, there is a coal stove in the hotel's kitchen, which can supply a small amount of hot water. So many customers bought a few boxes of instant noodles at the front desk to get back to the room.
This desk is made of wooden boards, facing the green hills, and has a glass dome. Some guests returned to the room to rest, and certainly cannot go out to play today. Mu Hanxia stayed here, looking at the rain. The heavy rain has been rushing all the time, and the mountains across are not clear. The clear and slow river that saw the two mountains yesterday saw a sudden sharp rise in the current overnight, which became turbulent and turbid. From time to time, you can see clothes, boards, etc. floating in the river. This worries Mu Hanxia a little bit, because it shows that something high is likely to happen.
It didn't take long before the wife came back. Wearing thick raincoats, boots, and mud, his hair was wet. Mu Hanxia and several other guests gathered around and asked, "Boss, how is it?"
The boss's face was calm, but her tone was also a bit anxious: "I just went down the mountain, and I was at another shop at the foot of the mountain, and things were basically washed away."
Everyone was surprised and did not expect the disaster to be so severe. Mu Hanxia asked, "Is the loss great? Are the personnel safe?"
The hostess smiled bitterly: "The loss must be big, and this year it was all in vain. My waiter and guests are okay."
She spoke briefly. It turned out that at three or four o'clock last night, the wife felt wrong. Based on her experience, she went down the mountain all night and woke up the sleeping guests one by one with the waiter and let them come to a high place. It didn't take long for them to leave, the guests were all settled, and the store was washed down by the flood.
"The group of guests came for the tour group." The boss said bitterly, "I didn't want to leave at first, but I had to refund my breakfast money today. I really ... where do I bring money in the middle of the night?"
Everyone was uproar. Mu Hanxia said: "It's really unclear." The boss nodded at her.
However, the boss lady also brought three other news.
First, according to an old man living in Miao Village, this is a heavy rain that has not been encountered for 60 years.
Second, there is another shop at the foot of the mountain. It is said that one person was washed away by the flood at midnight yesterday.
Third, the road into the mountain collapsed and has been closed. When will it work? I don't know.
Mu Hanxia talked to them again for a while and bought a box of instant noodles to go back to the room. It was tasteless and I ate it casually. The rain did not decrease at all. This is the first time Mu Hanxia has encountered such a natural disaster. Now that there is no signal when the phone is cut off from water and power, he is stuck in the mountains and cannot get out. However, the terrain here is high and relatively safe. She didn't panic too much, just remembering the agreement with Lin Mochen, she always felt a little uneasy. I'm afraid he's worried, I don't know if he has arrived in Guizhou, or whether he originally planned to enter the mountain.

It was raining heavily, Lin Mochen was sitting in the car, looking at the front line, and there were several cars blocked. He took out his phone and continued searching for news related to the disaster.
"Extraordinary heavy rain once in sixty years ..."
"Hundreds of tourists are staying in the scenic area ..."
"No casualties have been reported so far."
On the Internet, there are still pictures of road collapses and buildings being destroyed.
After a while, the car door opened with the sound of rain. Sun Zhi took the umbrella and sat in, saying, "Ask me clearly. The road here is a county road. It often collapses, and it wo n’t rain. It ’s too rainy this time. Many roads collapsed, so the road was closed. However, the troops have already gone in for repairs this morning. The response is still very fast, and the fastest can be repaired this afternoon. But it is not accurate. The situation should be fine. "
Lin Mochen nodded: "It's hard." Sun Zhi laughed: "What is it?"
This time Lin Mochen came over, Sun Zhi heard that Miaozhai had good scenery, and Ben also brought the whole family to travel. Who knew that when they encountered a natural disaster, they left their family in the hotel and accompanied Lin Mochen to pick up Mu Hanxia.
Their car was still the Cayenne that made the driver drive from Beijing. Lin Mochen had his own mind. He originally planned to take Mu Hanxia instead of returning to Beijing but directly to Lin City. The earliest piece of land in Lin City that year was the best-looking northwest corner, and he kept building a villa for him and her.
Go back this time and get the evidence first. He didn't want to delay any more.
The two men were just sitting in the car, listening to the rain outside. After a while, Sun Zhi called his family and smiled and comforted them that they were fine. The second time Lin Mochen called Mu Hanxia's mobile phone, the signal could not be connected.

In the afternoon, the rain finally reduced, leaving only drizzle. This is certainly a good sign. Mu Hanxia went to the front desk again, and there were several other guests. But the boss said that according to the news from the mountain, the road was still not repaired. In addition, a lot of tourists are waiting at the bus terminal, but the bus has not yet come in.
Mu Hanxia took out her mobile phone and still had no signal.
At this time, a small couple next to her said, "We just went to the platform on the top of the mountain. There are some places where the mobile phone is raised high and there is a signal.
They also came from Beijing, so Mu Hanxia talked to them a few times before. She thanked her and went out of the hotel with her umbrella.
Along the muddy path, Mu Hanxia has been walking to a higher position. The shops along the road are all closed, and there are other tourists trapped along the road. When Mu Hanxia walked to the highest platform, he found that many people gathered here, all overlooking the situation below.
"Look, that hotel was flooded by the flood." Someone shouted.
Mu Hanxia looked up and saw a house on the mountainside of another mountain next to it. It was almost surrounded by mud and rocks. Although it would not collapse, a torrent of torrents was flowing out of the house. The location of that house is not much lower than the hotel where Mu Hanxia lived. Only then did she realize that even at high altitudes, the houses were built against the mountain, and if the mountain behind was unstable, it might fall.
This made her even more disturbed.
Light rain kept going, she went to the pavilion, took out her mobile phone, and raised the search signal. No service, no service, always no service.
She changed positions again and continued to raise. Who knows just then, the phone suddenly rang. She saw that the person calling was Lin Mochen! Her heart flinched and she was surprised, and quickly picked up: "Hey?"
The phone has been silent.
"Hello? Hello?"
The communication was connected, but she couldn't hear his voice and wondered if he could hear himself.
"Lin Mochen, I'm fine. Don't worry if you're outside, don't come in the mountains. I will come out when the road is open ..." Without saying a word, communication was interrupted.
Mu Hanxia looked at the phone, raised and hit. However, this time, there was no signal anyway, and I couldn't dial out at all. She stayed on the top of the mountain for a while and had to return to the hotel.
Biochemical Gun God Crossing the Fire

"Road through!"
In the evening, Mu Hanxia learned the news. At this time, the rain had basically stopped, and if there was anxiety among the hotel guests, they would go out with their luggage.
"Where is your car parked?" Someone was talking.
"A parking lot near the top of the mountain."
"So do we. Let's go."
Soon the guests were halfway away, and some people were waiting to see and kept consulting with the boss.
"Is it dangerous to walk now?" Mu Hanxia asked.
The boss responded, "It's hard to say. But Lutong, the situation should be stable. But no one can say with 100% certainty about this kind of thing."
Mu Hanxia nodded to understand, and asked, "Will you go tomorrow tomorrow, will the situation be better?"
The lady boss is still unsure.
"Because you saw it, the weather in the mountains is inaccurate. Now the rain has stopped and the road has been cleared. But whether it will rain tonight and tomorrow, I don't know.
"That is to say, if it rains again, the road might be closed again?" Someone asked.
The lady nodded.
At this time, the young couple who had talked to Mu Hanxia before, dragged out of the luggage. The woman enthusiastically asked Mu Hanxia: "Did you come by car or by car? Would you like to go with us?"
Mu Hanxia thought that if he stayed for another day and could not contact Lin Mochen, he was afraid he would venture into the mountains. And now that the road is open, we can go out. The road may not be open tomorrow, and the situation may not be better, maybe worse. The idea is certain, she said, "I didn't drive. Can you take me out?"
The couple promised to come down, and Mu Hanxia immediately packed up his luggage and left with them.
Twilight shrouded Miao Village. The couple drove a hatchback Chevrolet, which circled down the narrow road at the top of the mountain. The wetness came after the rain. At this moment, the mood of the three people is probably completely different from when they entered the mountain. When it came, it was sunny, gentle and cozy. At present, the water in the river is still muddy, and there are many private cars on the road driving in the same direction as them. Looking from a distance, you can also see the bus station at the foot of the mountain, where a crowd of people gathered. I don't know when those people can go home.
Slowly, they descended the mountain and began to enter the long Panshan Highway. Fortunately, it is the off-season, and their departure time is later than other tourists, so there are not many cars on the road. But along the way, many landslide warning signs set up by the armed police have been seen, and there are piles of mud and stones cleared to the side.
"Be careful!" The young wife demanded.
"I know." The husband replied.
None of them spoke much. Mu Hanxia looked down at his watch, and it wasn't all dark before six o'clock. Even if you go out slowly, you should be able to drive out of the mountain in two hours. He will be able to contact Lin Mochen at that time. He must have arrived in Guizhou and even near Miao Village. See him soon.

"The road is open." Sun Zhi said, "But the weather in the mountains is uncertain. It is now open. It is said that the road is okay. In case it rains again tomorrow, a landslide may occur, maybe it will be closed again.
Lin Mochen looked up and saw that the road was clear outside the car. There are far more cars coming out of the opposite lane than going in. They should have just escaped from the scenic area. On the roadside, several armed police are maintaining order. In front of them, there were several emergency vehicles and an ambulance driving in. Everything seemed to be smooth and orderly, with few private cars driving in.
"I went into the mountain," Lin Mochen said, "you ..."
"I'll go with you." Sun Zhi answered.
Lin Mochen nodded and said nothing. On such a mountain road, Sun Zhi drove better than him and drove smoothly into the twilight. Along the way, almost only one of them was a private car, retrograde with all vehicles.
