Chapter 15 Don't Die
Everything around him gradually began to calm down, and the short footage of more than ten seconds in Cao Bo's mind kept replaying over and over again like a movie.
When the earthquake just began, Cao Bo slid down the sewer pipe outside the building with Jin Haoyue in his arms, but after he pushed Jin Haoyue to a safe place, Cao Bo had begun to shake violently in the hotel, climbing up along the pipe like a dexterous ape and smashing it down the ceiling. In the past, Cao Bo held Xia Menghan under him and covered **'s Simmons mattress on it to cushion the force of the bricks.
Although Cao Bo's body is already very strong, he is as small as an ant in front of the power of nature.
At that time, Cao Bo only felt that there were overwhelming sand and cement blocks everywhere, and all he could do was to press Xia Menghan under him. Although Cao Bo does have a good impression on Jin Haoyue, Xia Menghan is the woman he really wants to protect all his life. If something happens to Xia Menghan, Cao Bo would rather die together.
After that, Cao Bo didn't know whether he was knocked unconscious or fainted because of suffocation. However, when he felt a vibration under his body, Cao Bo suddenly opened his eyes and found that the earthquake had stopped. It seemed that everything was no different from usual.
"Are you all right?" Cao Bo tried his best to turn his side, but the huge pressure from his right foot made Cao Bo unable to move too far. Cao Bo guessed that it might be a wardrobe or a pile of rubble that pressed him, but he ignored these and just asked Xia Menghan if there was any pain in his body.
Xia Menghan seemed to be stunned by what had just happened. She stayed for a long time before whispering, "I'm fine. How are you?"
Cao Bo moved to the side again. It was already night when he came. At this time, the power system may have been damaged after the earthquake, because he could hardly see anything when Cao Bo looked around from this angle!
"It's so dark! Is it my eyes..." Xia Menghan exclaimed softly, and her voice seemed to be a little frightened.
Humans are still not used to living in a dark environment, especially young girls.
Cao Bo didn't want Xia Menghan to bear the pressure of his body, so he reluctantly moved to the side. At this time, Xia Menghan could finally pull out his upper body from below.
"Don't worry, maybe the doors and windows are blocked? It's hard for me to see anything now." Cao Bo comforted the other party as he moved. Xia Menghan calmed down a little when he heard Cao Bo's words. Cao Bo groped out along the mattress, but his tentacles were cold, and it was likely to be full of ruins and tiles outside.
"We are still lucky!" Cao Bo pushed out. Fortunately, the stones were not piled together, so a gap soon appeared under the mattress. At the same time, the faint moonlight came in along the gap. Cao Bo heard Xia Menghan's soft voice. He knew that the girl was finally relieved when she saw the light.
"This building seems to be relatively strong. If it collapses, we will probably be finished." Cao Bo joked with the other party easily. As he spoke, he tried hard to pull out his right leg, but he didn't know what was pressed on it. No matter how hard Cao Bo tried, it had no effect, so he finally tried his best to raise his body a little, so that Xia Menghan's legs were reluctantly twitched. Come out.
Cao Bo crawled on the ground, while Xia Menghan lay on his back. Because Cao Bo's body was relatively thick, and his hands had been supporting the ground hard, most of the pressure from the mattress still fell on Cao Bo.
"Why are you so stupid?" Xia Menghan suddenly asked, but Cao Bo did not answer this question, because he was still trying to pull out his body!
Xia Menghan seemed to find that Cao Bo was trying hard. She looked down along the gap between her body and the mattress, and then gently grabbed Cao Bo's arm: "Is your leg caught?"
Cao Bo didn't want to lie to the other party. Although he didn't answer, he nodded, while Xia Menghan twisted his body with difficulty without saying a word, and then pushed the stones outside with both hands. Obviously, he wanted to get out from under the mat and then move away the things that pressed Cao Bo.
But Xia Menghan is a girl after all. No matter how well she thinks, she doesn't have that much strength.
There was no change in the gap pushed out by Cao Bo before. Although Cao Bo didn't seem to take much effort just now, Xia Menghan couldn't move the bricks and stones at all no matter what.
Looking at Xia Menghan working so hard in such a narrow space, Cao Bo was a little moved. It seemed that he was not willing to be good to the other party. Xia Menghan paid more for the relationship between the two to some extent.
But that's why Cao Bo can't let Xia Menghan go out so rashly. Although the earthquake has stopped now, Cao Bo doesn't know what the previous room has become. If Xia Menghan gets any harm after drilling out, then Cao Bo's previous efforts will be in vain.
"You push these things out, and then I'll go out to help you!" Xia Menghan was still there with her strength, but Cao Bo did not answer her. In contrast, Cao Bo also stretched out his right hand and pulled Xia Menghan back to his side.
"Don't worry, the rescuers will arrive soon. You must not go out for risk." Cao Bo exhaled. In fact, since Cao Bo woke up, there has been a pain in his right foot! Cao Bo estimated that it was either a slight fracture or a cartilage contusion, but Cao Bo has always been very relaxed, because he didn't want Xia Menghan to worry about himself and do something dangerous.
At the same time, outside the mattress, the originally luxurious room became a mess in more than ten seconds. Not only was the door smashed, but the falling ceiling and wall skin made the house dirty.
In a protruding wall, the plug that broke the wire was still sparking, and a bottle of detergent spilled with most of it rolled next to the plug.
When Cao Bo was preparing to wait for rescue, a spark happened to jump on the detergent, and the detergent soaked in the sand suddenly caught fire, and even the bottle was lit!
Bum! When Cao Bo was accumulating his strength and was about to try to pull out his foot again, suddenly he heard a crisp sound from outside. Originally, Cao Bo thought it was the sound of a broken glass bottle, and he also comforted Xia Menghan like this, but then he cast a gradually bright light from the gap!
Oh no! Cao Bo saw that the light was bright and dark, and it was orange. The first thing he thought of was that there must be something on fire in this room!
It is usually accompanied by earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters, which are most likely to cause electric fires, but Cao Bo did not expect that something good to die would happen to him!
If Cao Bo can move freely, he can easily escape from here with Xia Menghan, but now it is obvious that his ankle is not only injured, but also what is pressed on it, which makes it difficult for Cao Bo to move.
Although Xia Menghan didn't find it as fast as Cao Bo, she also saw the light coming from outside.
"Is there someone coming to save us?" Xia Menghan first shouted, but then she turned around and called Cao Bo: "Oh, this room is on fire! Because in addition to the yellow light, there is also a heat wave where the temperature is gradually rising.
Cao Bo bit his lips tightly, and then stretched out his hand and pushed it hard against the stone blocked outside.
Previously, Cao Bo did not open the gap because Cao Bo was afraid that Xia Menghan would be in danger after drilling out, but now he sees a fire in the room. If it continues like this, the rescuers will not come, and Cao Bo and others will be burned to death here first.
So Cao Bo pushed a mouth out of the mattress, and Cao Bo estimated that Xia Menghan should be able to barely get out. Because his foot was stuck, Cao Bo's range of activities was not large, which was the largest angle he could push.
"Get out of here! There is a cable outside the window. You grab the wire and slide it down!" Cao Bo saw the wire when he came up just now. Originally, he could also pull the cable up, but Cao Bo was afraid that the wire could not withstand his weight, and on the other hand, he left a back road. Because the destructive power of the earthquake is very huge, the sewer pipe is connected and embedded outside the wall. If the wall is damaged, the pipe is likely to break.
However, the cable is flexible. As long as the upper wire is not cut off, the cable can be used.
When Cao Bo pushed away the bricks that were blocked outside, he found that the fire spread quickly, the fire was getting brighter and brighter, and even the soles of the curtains by the window sill were set on fire.
Cao Bo knew that this room would soon be swallowed up by the sea of fire, so he kept urging Xia Menghan to escape quickly.
Although it is dangerous to slide down the cable, it is much better than being burned to death here.
In fact, Cao Bo is also worried that Xia Menghan is a girl after all. Not everyone can make her jump down from the sixth floor, but Cao Bo knows how precious the current time is. It may be life-threatening for a second.
But Xia Menghan didn't approach the window sill at all. Cao Bo didn't know where she had gone, because the girl had left Cao Bo's sight.
"Are there any other channels?" Cao Bo thought that the earthquake would shake the wall open. Xia Menghan found other ways out, but he heard Xia Menghan say, "What is pressing you is a long cement wall!" I'll find something to put it up. You're going to pull your foot out!"
Cao Bo didn't expect that Xia Menghan not only didn't plan to leave, but also she had to save herself! Cao Bo was anxious when he heard this, because the window had been peeled off, and the curtains had turned into ashes in a mass of fire. If Xia Menghan dragged on, there would not even be the only possibility of survival!
"Go quickly! Do you hear me?" Cao Bo shouted in a commanding tone, but there was no movement on Xia Menghan's side. Cao Bo shouted a few more times, but the other party still did not respond.
The passage of time was a torment for Cao Bo at this time. He didn't know how long it took. Suddenly, the pressure on his right foot was a little relieved, and then Xia Menghan's voice appeared again: "Furgent! Work hard!"
Cao Bo didn't know what to say at this time. He endured the severe pain from his right foot and pulled his body out desperately, but at this time, Cao Bo felt the sudden hot temperature from his back! Cao Bo didn't even have to think about it. The mattress must have been lit at this time.
"Let's go!" Although Cao Bo's feet were a little loose, it would take at least a while to pull out his feet, but the mattress behind him was on fire. Cao Bo knew that he might not be able to hold on for so long, and Xia Menghan might not be able to escape.
"Fool! If you die, can I still live alone? Although Xia Menghan's voice was not loud, the words fell into Cao Bo's ears.
Cao Bo wanted to say something, but Cao Bo's feet suddenly loosened! Cao Bo's heart moved and immediately curled up his right leg. This time, his right foot finally got rid of the bondage!
Cao Bo turned over and slipped out from under the mattress. He endured the severe pain from his right foot and didn't care about Xia Menghan's surprised expression not far in front of him. Cao Bo came forward and hugged Xia Menghan, then protected her head, face and hair, and rushed out of the window directly...
Cao Bo grabbed him by his side according to his memory. He originally thought that even if he didn't catch the sewer pipe, he should have grabbed the cable, but Cao Bo's hand was empty. He was shocked and looked around. The wall was full of cracks, and he didn't know where the pipes and cables he saw before had gone...
Damn it! Cao Bo and Xia Menghan's bodies fell down quickly. Cao Bo held each other tightly in his arms and leaned his jaw against Xia Menghan's forehead. Cao Bo made up his mind that even if he fell into a disability, he could not let Xia Menghan get hurt!
'Bum!'
The time when he fell from the sixth floor was very short, and Cao Bo's legs fell to the ground almost in an instant. However, unlike what Cao Bo thought before, he did not feel a huge impact when his body landed on the ground. On the contrary, it seemed to fall on a very soft air cushion.
Cao Bo and Xia Menghan rolled twice. At this time, Cao Bo found that he had fallen on a huge air cushion, but how could this cushion happen to be here?
"Little girl, how do you know someone is going to jump down?" Suddenly, Cao Bo heard someone talking. He looked up at the voice. Cao Bo saw a firefighter asking a little girl beside him in surprise, and the little girl was not someone else, but Jin Haoyue who had been thrown here by Cao Bo before.
"Maybe it's because of a woman's intuition?" When Jin Haoyue saw Cao Bo looking at herself, she couldn't help showing a very gratifying smile.
