Three Hundred and Seventy-Four: Dongqing Earthquake (6)

Most of the houses collapsed in the first earthquake, and the rest were killed in the aftershocks. Wei Jingxian needed postpartum care, and she could not continue to lie in the temporary delivery room. It was an extraordinary measure at an urgent time, and now Naturally, it needs to be more precise. 『WwΩW． LieWen. CC

At times like this, a tent is far safer than a house.

After taking care of this, Jiang Pengji said goodbye to Feng Jin.

"I have to go back... I don't know what happened at home last night. The house and money are secondary... I'm just worried about Xiaoyu..." Fortunately, the Liu family's property in Shangjing is not large, with a small area and a low-rise building. It is short, the materials used are mainly wood, and there is not much rubble. Even if the house collapses and falls down, it should not kill anyone. "I want to go back and take charge of the overall situation."

Feng Jin knew what Xu Ke meant to Jiang Pengji. They were called master and servant, but in fact they were good friends.

"Jin asked the servants to take you back. There were a lot of mobs after the earthquake, so it's better to be careful." Feng Jin said.

Jiang Pengji was about to nod when her ears suddenly heard a familiar sound.

She stood up suddenly and faced the direction of the sound.

"Uu——"

Xu Ke was panting. When he saw the once low-key and luxurious Feng Jin mansion turned into ruins, his heart skipped a beat and suddenly sank.

Dabai drove him through the ruins, and when he saw a familiar figure in the distance, his worry suddenly turned into ecstasy.

"Lang Jun!" Xu Ke staggered off his horse, with an ecstatic expression as if he was about to cry.

His face was covered in gray, his clothes were twisted into dried vegetables, his sleeves were torn, and his bun looked like it had been gnawed by a dog. He looked extremely embarrassed.

"Xiaoyu? Fortunately, you are still alive... How is the family doing now? Are there many casualties?"

Jiang Pengji felt relieved when she saw that he was alive and well, with only a slight scratch on his arm.

Xu Ke hadn't realized how far he was going. He was still staggering closer to Jiang Pengji, and he was already rubbing her cheek affectionately.

He took a deep breath and replied, "There was a warning from Dabai. Only the groom was injured, and the others were unharmed."

Jiang Pengji was confused, "Only the groom was injured?"

Xu Ke looked at Dabai dumbfounded and said,

"Lang Jun, Mr. Dabai, has saved many people. Yesterday before the third watch, he suddenly jumped up and kicked over the stable, accidentally hurting the groom who stopped him, and ran into the house and ran into the house..."

After all, it is a brave and capable war horse from Northern Xinjiang, and with a master like Jiang Pengji, how can ordinary people tame such a fierce horse?

Almost everyone was disturbed by Dabai so much that they couldn't sleep. However, he was very smart. He bit the head of anyone who came near the house. The group did not dare to hurt Dabai. This was Jiang Pengji's beloved horse, and the lives of all his slaves were not worth it. .

There was no way, under Dabai's willful and stubborn obstruction, Xu Ke and all the servants could only stay in the courtyard to confront Dabai.

Then, the earthquake happened.

Jiang Pengji's expression became extremely strange after hearing this.

"Your head is so messed up, did Dabai chew it?"

She thought that Xu Ke accidentally messed up the mess in the chaos, making it look like a dog gnawing at it. Was the co-authored by Dabai?

Xu Ke was speechless.

Lang Jun, it is so heartbreaking to say such words at this time.

"Well done!"

Jiang Pengji stroked Dabai's mane, and the arrogant and beautiful girl stuck out her tongue and licked her face, as if asking for credit.

When Xu Ke saw this, the depression in his heart disappeared. He just chewed it, it was better than losing his life.

"There was a sudden earthquake last night. Ke ordered his servants to clean up the ruins and search for the people who were still alive. Therefore, I was late. Please forgive me."

Jiang Pengji smiled and said openly, "You did the right thing, why should I blame you? When the earthquake just happened, the chance of people surviving was high. After several aftershocks, the day lilies were all cold. Your husband You know what you are capable of. If I can't survive safely, the whole city of Shangjing will be a dead city. What's the situation outside when you come all the way?"

If she really makes a mistake and dies in this earthquake, what use will Xu Ke come here to do?

What he did was a truly responsible and responsible behavior.

In this era, those in power would have a grudge and feel that Xu Kesheng was rebellious, but with Jiang Pengji's mind, how could she blame him?

Xu Ke is not an emotional person, but he has experienced catastrophes and endured strong pressure to survive and made choices. Now that he has received Jiang Pengji's courtesy, tears can't help but well up in his eyes. He sniffed and held back the tears. Went back.

"Outside... everything is in ruins, nine out of ten houses have collapsed, and the people have suffered heavy casualties... I'm afraid... there are only a few survivors..."

Xu Ke choked up and said, the tragic scenes along the way appeared in front of his eyes, and his heart was full of sorrow.

In ancient times, people mostly worked from 9 to 5. The earthquake occurred after the third watch. At that time, most of the people had already fallen asleep. The earthquake happened so suddenly and the shaking was so strong. How could there be time to escape?

"Nine out of ten rooms collapsed..."

Jiang Pengji let out a long sigh and sat down on the ruins as if she had lost all strength.

She is a genetic warrior who has participated in the most brutal interstellar wars. She has harvested the lives of countless enemies with her hands. Life and death are commonplace for her. In Jiang Pengji's eyes, those ordinary people are no different from the federal citizens she protects.

The enemy's life has no value in her eyes, but the citizens she protects behind her are as valuable as treasure.

Now, an earthquake has killed countless people.

Their deaths were worthless and their lives were worthless.

"Mr. Lang..."

Xu Ke wanted to persuade, but didn't know how to persuade.

He knew that his husband was usually cold, willful, and unrestrained, but he knew that he was kind.

Yes, kind.

Because of his kindness, his husband would go to the fields himself, learn how to farm from old farmers, understand the common things of crops in the fields, draw and improve farm tools, and spend money to let the craftsman workshop further improve according to the drawings... He didn't think other sons of noble families would be able to lower themselves to do this.

In addition, there are troops, suppressing bandits and protecting the peace of Hejian, establishing female troops, and accepting abandoned and sold girls...

Under the ruins, there are boxes of books. These are precious treasures she exchanged from Cheng Cheng. They are prepared to promote movable type printing in the future and give them to students all over the world. "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names"... They are all prepared for young children who will be enlightened in the future...

There is also Bo Tan in Chongzhou. The papermaking workshop he secretly built has experimented with a variety of papermaking techniques, and each process is more mature.

Step by step, why is it, Xu Ke can see clearly.

Born in a noble family, he is not greedy, and truly cares about the world.

Xu Ke felt that if such a person could not be called kind, who else could be qualified?

Jiang Pengji was distracted for a short time, and soon regained her calm and indifferent expression.

"Open the warehouse, put grain in and build a porridge shed..."

Xu Ke knew that her husband would do this, and had already prepared a plan.

"A batch of grain was put into the warehouse a while ago. If we build a porridge shed, it should last for half a month."

Of course, the scale of the porridge shed is not large, otherwise it can't even last for three or five days.
