Chapter 293 Volcanic eruption
"Wooh!" Xue'er opened her mouth and exhaled a white gas, which quickly swelled into a snowball the size of a basin, blooming in the air like fireworks, turning into snowflakes and falling on the ground, which was very beautiful.
He Chen looked at Xue'er doubtfully and didn't understand what it meant. Now he finally found that the important surname of the colored bird, who is usually only picky about food and doesn't work. The unique language system between him and Xue'er is only based on simple language, and most of them rely on guessing. This is a little complicated, that is, It's a problem.
Ma Xiner clapped her hands excitedly, "Beautiful, Xue'er has another one."
Xue'er vividly gave Ma Xiner a white eye. This move is very vivid with Lin Lingxue. He Chen said to Ma Xiner, "Don't get in the way. Xue'er seems to have something to tell us."
"He Chen looked at Xue'er suspiciously: Do you want to say something?"
Cher nodded, jumped on the ground a few times, and suddenly jumped up high. She opened her mouth and a snowball burst. She compared with the car and said, "You mean, something is going to explode?"
Squeak! Cher's little head clicked a few times, her tail shook, and the snow on the ground kept flying up.
"Volcano eruption!" He Chen was shocked when he saw it. He thought of a possibility.
"Squeak!" Xue'er hurriedly shouted twice, climbed on He Chen's shoulder, and swept his face with her tail, which meant that she was right.
He Chen pointed to the penguin in front of him and asked, "They tell you that the volcano here will explode?"
Xue'er nodded again. He Chen and Ma Xiner looked at each other. There was a kind of surprise in their eyes. They had never experienced the scene of volcanic eruption, but they had also seen relevant reports. Although the two of them had superman's first-class strength, in the face of the volcanic eruption, they were also unable to resist. They ran slowly and could only turn into The share of gray.
He Chen asked worriedly, "Do they know when they will break out?"
Cher's little claws shook quickly a few times, and He Chen confirmed, "Soon?"
Xue'er nodded. He Chen lowered her head and meditated. It was better to believe it or not, but it was too big. He alone could not change anything at all. Moreover, he was a little worried. In case these penguins made a mistake, the matter would be troublesome. He looked up at Ma Xiner and asked, " What should I do about this?
"I don't know." Ma Xiner shook her head helplessly and stood on the top of the misty mountain. She couldn't imagine what the volcano here would look like once it erupted.
He Chen thought for a moment and dialed his grandfather's private phone. He only heard a calm and magnetic voice saying, "Xiao Chen, Vice Chairman Tang is in a meeting. Is there anything important?"
"Brother Wei, I got the news that there may be a volcanic eruption in Mount Kilimanjaro recently. What do you think about this?" Listening to the voice, He Chen knew that it was Grandpa's secretary Xiao Wei who answered the phone and told him directly.
Xiao Wei was stunned and walked to the conference room and said, "Don't hang up the phone. I'll give it to Vice Chairman Tang."
Xiao Wei knocked on the door of the conference room, walked steadily to Mr. Tang, handed him the phone and whispered "It's Xiaochen". Mr. Tang took it in doubt and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Mount Kilimanjaro is going to have a volcanic eruption. I don't know what to do about this, so I'll ask for your old opinion."
"What, what did you say?" Mr. Tang suspected that he had heard it wrong, so he raised his voice and asked again.
"The volcano on Mount Kilimanjaro is about to explode." He Chen repeated a sentence.
Mr. Tang asked doubtfully, "How do you know?"
He Chen replied, "I'm standing on the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, on the edge of the crater."
"Can you be sure of this?" Mr. Tang's face was heavy, and many people in the conference room looked at it quietly.
"Before the outbreak, no one can be sure. I want to tell you that several penguins told me about this. Do you believe it?" He Chen asked with a wry smile. He is not a geological exploration expert. How can he be sure? I'm afraid the geological exploration expert can't be sure about this.
Mr. Tang replied decisively, "Xin, can you confirm the approximate time?"
"Absolutely no more than No. 28." He Chen answered this time with great certainty that if the sudden eruption of the volcano had no contact with the bullshit god, he would never believe it.
The solemn on Mr. Tang's face has increased a little, "Okay, I know. You leave there immediately, and we will deal with other things."
He Chen saw that the old man had the posture of hanging up the phone and hurriedly said, "Wait, there is another thing to trouble you. Xue'er wants to take these penguins back. Can you get them back?"
"Yes! We have a good relationship with Tanzania. It's not a problem to ship this little thing. Be careful. Remember to inform us as soon as possible. I'll ask the embassy there to contact you. Mr. Tang was stunned. In normal times, he would definitely laugh, but now he can't laugh. Although this natural disaster happened on the distant African continent, no one will be happy.
"It's a little urgent. Let's start today's meeting. It's eventful!" Mr. Tang said in a heavy voice and quickly walked out of the conference room. The people in the conference room looked at each other and guessed in their hearts what had happened to Tang Zonia.
After receiving a phone call from the embassy, He Chen asked Xueer to command a team of penguins to walk to the mountain where they had just landed. The guy twisted. He Chen and the others walked for half an hour. They walked for more than two hours and carried all the penguins on the plane. He Chen took such a small group of rare and cute species to The largest city in Tanzania flew away. Under Cher's reminder, He Chen asked Ma Xiner to feed each of these guys a bottle of 1% diluted ice spirit and water condensation, so as not to go down the mountain and heat them to death.
The staff of the embassy were surprised to see a string of penguins from He Chen's plane. Some people who have worked in Africa for many years have only heard of penguins and have never seen them. After all, the living environment of penguins is not what ordinary people like.
The people who handed over the penguins to the embassy, He Chen and Ma Xiner returned to Mount Kilimanjaro. Their exploration mission was not over yet. Looking at the eager eyes of the penguins one by one, He Chen was not worried that they would starve these lovely guys. As for the temperature, Cher promised that it would be fine, so it would be fine.
With the envy of Ma Xiner, He Chen explored the deep valleys of the cliffs with the help of "wind magic", all kinds of rare medicinal materials in the valley, and the glittering diamonds on the mountain wall. Ma Xiner held a fist-sized diamond and shouted for wealth excitedly. He Chen I told her a piece of news that shocked her. This thing was in his and Lin Ling's storage space, which was calculated.
A meeting was interrupted. 20 minutes later, Mr. Tang walked into another conference room. None of the people who attended the meeting this time were in military uniforms. The current national leader Xiao Lao sat in the first place and smiled at Mr. Tang and said, "Lao Tang, please tell everyone about the situation. I know what's the big deal.
Mr. Tang sat down and said calmly, "According to reliable sources, the volcano in Mount Kilimanjaro will explode in the near, and the time will not exceed the 28th of this month."
Quiet, there was a silence in the conference room in an instant, as if there was no breathing. They were all shocked one by one. The people who came to their senses looked at Mr. Tang doubtfully. An old man sitting opposite Mr. Tang asked, "Vice Chairman Tang, is this source reliable?"
"Reliable!" Mr. Tang nodded. If it hadn't been out of absolute trust in He Chen, he wouldn't believe it was true. On his way here, he had let Xiao Wei check it. Not to mention Kilimanjaro Mountain recently, there has been no possibility of an outbreak in recent decades or even for hundreds of years.
Another old man said, "According to the investigation in recent years, there is no sign of an outbreak in Kilimanjaro in a short period of time. There is no scientific basis for this news!"
"There are many things in this world that can't be explained scientifically." Mr. Tang smiled faintly. He also believed in science, but he knew more that science could not explain everything, such as his grandson.
"There is no basis. Even if we announce this news to Don Sonia, people will not believe it. Of course, I don't deny the reliable surname of your news. The key is what we use to persuade others." The speaker is the current Minister of Foreign Affairs Zhang Chengqiong, an old man who is about the same age as Mr. Tang. He knows that the two have a good relationship.
"Do your best and listen to fate." Mr. Tang said slowly, and he knew that this matter was not easy to do. Not to mention other countries, it was in his own country. If you say that a certain mountain is going to explode, there is no sign or basis, and it will be very good not to be scolded by people for being neurotic.
"Lao Zhang, what do you think?" Mr. Xiao raised his head in meditation and asked Zhang Chengqiong.
Zhang Chengqiong's analysis of some concerns said: "The maximum we can do is to inform the Tanzanian political axe that the Chinese who are in a radius of 100 miles of Kilimanjaro as soon as possible, or return home or temporarily evacuate to other places, but this is bound to have a certain impact on the local residents, which will cause Chaos."
"Lao Tang said well, 'Do your best according to fate'. If we don't even do everything, how can we resist God's will? Lao Zhang will inform Tanzania's political axe as soon as possible. As for how to let our people evacuate normally, you can find a reason. You are good at this thing. People from all departments cooperate fully, and the reserve department prepares materials. We can't lack humanitarian assistance. Mr. Xiao made a decision directly and decided on this matter. The top leader had already spoken, and no matter what happened to the people below, they could only swallow it back in their stomachs.
"Lao Tang." Mr. Xiao stopped Mr. Tang and asked in a low voice, "Is your boy in Africa?"
Mr. Tang said, "I'm on Mount Kilimanjaro."
"Oh! I guess it's him. Let them be careful. The Security Bureau got the news that something big has happened in Africa recently. I don't know what's going on. Isn't it just this? Mr. Xiao asked doubtfully.
"I don't think so. The girl from the Ma family went to Africa with him. If they had known about the volcanic eruption, they wouldn't have foolishly run to eat volcanic ash. There must be other things. I forgot to ask when I was in a hurry." Mr. Tang shook his head with a smile. With his understanding of He Chen, there must be something special in Africa, which made him run over without any effort.
Mr. Xiao said, "Then why don't you ask quickly. Seeing what's going on, we can do something in advance here."
"Ask that boy, not necessarily, ask my girl." Mr. Tang knows his grandson. If you ask He Chen about this matter, He Chen will definitely not say anything. Mr. Tang called Tang Yushi.
"Grandpa, why did you remember to call me today? You didn't want to find out what my brother did in Africa from me, did you?" After receiving a phone call from Grandpa, Tang Yushi suddenly guessed what the old man's purpose was. She said that Grandma called her, and she was thinking of her, but Grandpa, it was absolutely impossible.
Mr. Tang asked with a smile, "Your brother won't tell you. Can't you tell me?"
"You said it yourself, save me. My brother said it when he left. No matter who asks, he can't say it, but let me remind you that the border guards and armed police have been fighting for the starting time recently, especially on the night of the 28th." The Tang poem repeated what He Chen said.
"Hmm! I know. I really can't talk to Grandpa?"
"I can't. Grandpa, don't ask. Hurry up and have your meeting. I'm working." Tang Yushi is very determined this time, and there is no intention of being a traitor at all.
"Just kidding, the volcano erupted in Mount Kilimanjaro. Chinese people are really interesting. There will be no movement in that mountain for at least 50 years, but don't we know anything about the volcanic eruption?" When Tanzania received the news from China, he sneered and directly regarded it as a joke.
After a few days of search, He Chen and others searched all the famous hills of the East African Rift Valley. There were no important discoveries, and the whole East African Rift Valley, until the morning of the 28th, still had no special events. He Chen and Ma Xiner lived at the foot of Kilimanjaro Mountain, a small one 30 kilometers away. In the town, eating local delicacies, sitting by the window and looking at the white Mount Kilimanjaro.
All the Chinese working and living near Mount Kilimanjaro were evacuated to 100 kilometers away in two days, so that even if the volcano erupted, they would not worry about not having time to evacuate. This move caused a stir among the Tanzanian people, but in the case of the political axe coming forward to refute the rumors, everyone was laughing at the Chinese. It's a fuss.
Suddenly, under the two-story building where He Chen and others are located, he walked through more than a dozen people in black robes and hooded in black hats. He Chen and Ma Xiner couldn't help shouting "witches". Human beings in this profession are obviously not local residents. Looking sideways on the road, they knew this. The world's attitude towards novel things is the same.
He Chen smiled and said proudly, "It seems that we have chosen a good place."
"Nonsense, it's a hoar for you to be a girl's feng shui!" Ma Xiner also raised her chin proudly.
"I always thought that you would catch ghosts, but I didn't expect you to study feng shui." When they arrived at this small town, Ma Xiner did point out at a glance that this small building was the best, which He Chen couldn't deny.
"Ghost hunting is the purpose, and feng shui is the means. If I suddenly run to someone's house and say to someone, 'Your house is haunted, I've caught the ghost and give me 50,000 yuan'. It's strange not to be beaten out by others, but if I say to him, 'his feng shui is not good, affecting this and that, I can help him change it', most people still It is that you will choose to spend money to buy peace. It is not so easy in any industry. If you don't know how to keep up with the times, you can only be eliminated. Ma Xiner said with a little emotion.
"Ha ha! You are quite smart. By the way, there are so many ghosts in this world? He Chen asked curiously.
Ma Xiner pointed to her chest, "Actually, the biggest ghost, here, as the saying goes, 'Don't do bad things in your life, don't be afraid of knocking on the door in the middle of the night'. Everything has a causal cycle. Huh, how did they come back?" Ma Xiner was talking when she saw more than a dozen people in wizard's robes coming back.
"It's not just coming back." He Chen smiled. The one in front had already entered the small building. Soon, footsteps came from the stairs. More than a dozen people sat next to He Chen and others, turning their heads and looking at the mountain not far away.
At night, it came quietly. Due to the appearance of wizards, the town was surprisingly quiet. Under the bright moonlight, Mount Kilimanjaro looked particularly beautiful, as if it was shrouded in a faint silver light.
A dark shadow suddenly appeared in the bright moonlight. He Chen and Ma Xiner looked at each other and said "starting". The two jumped from the window to the roof and looked up at the bright moon that was slowly being blocked.
He Chen and Ma Xiner's movements made more than a dozen wizards obviously stunned. They were already puzzled about the young men and women who had been sitting quietly all afternoon like them. Now they finally revealed their identities. They should be the warriors of the East. They nodded to each other, and the shadows flashed continuously and appeared upstairs in the blink of an eye. Top, standing a few steps away from He Chen and Ma Xiner, he also looked at the moonlight.
Many people, like He Chen and others, stopped on the street and looked at this strange scene. All the people were wondering. They didn't hear the report of a total lunar eclipse. Why did this rare celestial phenomena suddenly appear in a hundred years?
Soon, the moonlight was completely blocked, and the night sky was dark. The darkness was like a giant beast, devouring everything in the world. Suddenly, He Chen felt as if a gust of wind had blown. The wizard under his perception had a slight fluctuation on his body, and he immediately returned to normal.
The earth suddenly shook slightly. Just when people thought it was an earthquake, there was a loud noise between heaven and earth. Mount Kilimanjaro, which was shrouded in black, suddenly spewed out a flame. The red flame instantly reflected half of the sky. The black night sky and the red flame looked at a kind of ferocious and black smoke. It seems to connect heaven and earth, with a little red light, spreading rapidly around with Mount Kilimanjaro as the center.
"The volcano has erupted!" The people who reacted shouted loudly. The quiet town was in chaos in an instant, and people were running. It was not only this small town that was in chaos. The towns and countries near Mount Kilimanjaro were all chaotic. Mount Kilimanjaro, which would not erupt for a hundred years, suddenly erupted.
