Chapter 380 Meteor Shower

Chapter 380: Chapter 380 Meteor Shower

The group of people had no choice but to continue walking back.

The village that once echoed with laughter and chatter had turned into a vast flatland now.

Here and there, vivid red bloodstains spattered the ground, forming terrifying pools.

Jhiang Yuan felt annoyed inside. If they couldn’t find a place to settle down, she would have to use her space, but there were so many people.

It was fine to help out once or twice in an emergency, but if it became a habit, that would be problematic.

Those moments were bought with her very life.

Naturally, she was reluctant to offer them up so easily for everyone’s enjoyment.

However, there really was nowhere left here to shelter from the wind and rain.

"Let’s go gather some firewood, we can make a fire right here and rest for the night,"

Jhiang Xingzhi chose a slope, a gentle one.

Even if there were aftershocks, there wouldn’t be any problems.

"Alright, let’s pick up some firewood. Let’s all go together, the female comrades stay behind."

They had brought some things with them, including blankets and the like.

They were taken from Jhiang Yuan’s space, mainly to make staying outdoors more convenient.

Though lightweight, they were very warm.

It wasn’t too conspicuous and was easy to explain away.

Jhiang Yuan also scrutinized the surroundings, ensuring there was nothing left nearby.

Ye Mianmian was tidying up, also feeling quite sentimental.

The day before, they had entered the space ahead of time.

They had no clue what had happened outside until Song Yi and the others returned and told them about the earthquake.

But, not having witnessed it firsthand, facing so many strange occurrences today made her entire worldview crumble.

"Sister Yuan, is it safe for us to stay here?

If we still hear noises from below, what should we do?"

Err, she hadn’t really thought about that.

"Mianmian, don’t think too much, we are powerless right now.

If there are noises, just pretend you didn’t hear them."

"Mmm!"

Ye Mianmian still felt uneasy, as if the world had gone mad.

It was different from the place where she had lived for the past two decades.

Song Yi and his group returned with a good number of branches, which didn’t take much effort to find.

They had fallen naturally, easy to just pick up.

They made three trips back and forth, and Jhiang Yuan was not idle during this time.

By the time they returned on the last trip, the fire had already been started.

A small pot was set up over it; the same one Qin Yue had used in the temple before.

Continuing to use it now didn’t seem too abrupt.

In their backpacks were some instant noodles, which they cooked up to warm everyone with a hot, soothing meal.

Everyone was happy with that, especially Zhang Kaiyang, who could barely contain his excitement.

He rushed to find clean snow, fearing it would delay mealtime.

They also had self-heating hot pots, which they could share later on.

Soon, night fell, and everyone had eaten.

There was no wind or snowstorm, and the earthquake had passed; they felt remarkably content.

"Oh my goodness, look, are those stars?"

It was Qin Yue who discovered them, completely taken aback.

"Yes, those are really stars."

Having lived in the city for so many years, it was rare to see so many stars.

But they weren’t very bright.

Of course, the sky hadn’t become completely dark yet.

Everyone began to relax.

The stars in the sky grew brighter and more numerous.

Suddenly, they were in the midst of a scene filled with a myriad of stars.

"Wow, so many stars, so beautiful. Could this be what they call the Milky Way?"

Zhang Kaiyang was lying on a blanket, in high spirits, wanting Fan Qing to come over and look with him.

But she declined; it was not the time for romance.

All eyes were lifted to gaze at the stars above, and Jhiang Yuan felt it was almost beyond belief.

Back in their hometown, during the summer and autumn seasons, there were indeed many stars.

But never as numerous as they were now.

"Could it be because we are up on the mountain? The stars seem so low, I feel like I could touch them, haha~"

Zhang Kaiyang made a casual joke, but no one laughed, and he instantly felt a bit awkward.

"These stars do look rather low, why do I feel it’s so unusual?"

Jhiang Yuan muttered to herself, her sixth sense telling her this was not a good sign.

Song Yi saw her anxiety and was also very worried.

"You guys rest first, I’ll keep watch.

If anything happens, I’ll alert you."

When Song Yi said this, it meant he was planning to stand watch overnight.

"Sure, thank you for your effort."

He would not get tired, so this task was perfectly suited for him.

Jhiang Xingzhi felt a bit embarrassed and quickly joined the conversation.

"Xiao Song will take the first shift, I’ll keep watch later in the night."

"It’s not necessary, Uncle, I’m not sleepy."

"That won’t do, it’s settled then. I’m getting on in years and need less sleep~"

...

Jhiang Yuan had no way to explain to her father about Song Yi’s special abilities, so she could only silently agree.

Everyone started to rest, each lost in their own thoughts, but no one spoke.

Unknowingly, the latter part of the night arrived, and Jhiang Xingzhi got up.

Before he had a chance to speak, they heard a "whoosh whoosh whoosh" sound.

Jhiang Yuan hadn’t slept soundly, and now she too heard the noise.

She quickly got up to check the situation.

"It’s a meteor shower~"

Song Yi exclaimed, and the father and daughter both looked up.

The rest of the group woke as well, except for the two children.

"To actually encounter this is indeed rare!"

Zhang Kaiyang even thought about making a wish, but seeing everyone else looking anxious, he felt a bit embarrassed.

Meanwhile, the meteors were becoming more numerous.

They passed overhead, creating a beautiful meteor shower.

This time, Zhang Kaiyang really couldn’t hold back.

He carefully clasped his hands together and began to make a wish.

It was indeed beautiful, and sitting there, it looked incredibly spectacular.

No wonder couples liked to make wishes under meteor showers.

However, such a picturesque scene was only found in romantic dramas.

"No, listen, is that the sound of something hitting the ground?"

Song Yi became instantly tense, but nobody else could hear anything!

"Brother Song, are you confused? What sound could that be?"

Zhang Kaiyang had just made his wish and was in high spirits.

"No, there’s something wrong, everyone get up quick~"

Because of their trust in Song Yi, nobody dared to waste time.

Qin Yue hurried to pack up, as now was not the time to fall behind.

But they kept their movements within reach of Jhiang Yuan.

Fearing that being too far away might affect her performance.

"Look~"

This time, it was Zhang Kaiyang who noticed that a meteor had hit the ground.

Then there was a second one, "bang bang bang," the sounds all indicating heavy objects landing.

Damn, it was definitely some huge objects hurtling down with extreme force.

Jhiang Yuan also saw it, one landed not far ahead of them.

The sound was indeed very loud.

"Song Yi~"

She shouted his name, as Zhang Kaiyang and Fan Qing were simultaneously knocked out.
