Chapter 40: The Earthquake
After inspecting the coal kiln, Zhao Hao declined the hospitality of the cow boss and prepared to go down the mountain while it was still early.
At this time, it was just noon, hurry back to the town and take the ice car out of the mountain, you should be able to return to Beijing before the city gate closes, otherwise you will have to sleep in the stinky town inn.
This is really a great torture for Zhao Hao, who is becoming more and more particular......
After this field trip, he came to the conclusion that it was still most comfortable to be metaphysically at home.
Ambassador Hou had long been eager to fly back to the capital with wings, so he naturally raised his hands in favor.
After a few bites of food, they set out on their way home.
In order to be in a hurry, at the suggestion of Ambassador Hou, they decided to take a shortcut, insert directly from the valley at the southern foothills, and sit on an ice row at Dingjiatan.
Moreover, there is no coal picker on this road, which can save a lot of time.

On the snow slope at the southern foothills, the Li family brothers and sisters, Xu Yuanchun and others also ate dry food with the mountain ginseng pheasant soup stewed by the servants, which was considered to have solved lunch.
During the meal, those addicted sons begged Li Chengen to take them to challenge the more difficult snow slopes.
"However, I promised to continue to teach Xu Gongzi to ski." Li Chengen said, then looked at his sister and said, "Why don't you help me ......?"
"Good!" Li Mingyue agreed, and said to the sons: "I know a snow trail, it is absolutely exciting." ”
"Great, let's go!" The sons couldn't even take care of eating, so they dressed up again and rushed out of the tent with Li Mingyue.
Li Chengen looked at their backs helplessly, and only when his sister came out of the tent did he smile bitterly at Xu Yuanchun: "I actually want to say, let her teach you for me." ”
"Well, thank you." Xu Yuanchun gritted his teeth and stood up, this morning's practice could choke him enough. "Let's go, keep practicing, we must learn it today!"
"Okay." Li Chengen was a little impressed by Xu Gongzi.

In that compartment, Zhao Hao rode on a horse, silently sorting out what he had seen, heard, thought and felt in the past two days.
Suddenly, he felt that Zhao Shizhen on the side peeked at him from time to time, so he turned his head to look at his eldest nephew and said, "I have flowers on my face?" ”
"No, it's my nephew who wants to ask my uncle......" Zhao Shizhen paused and lowered his voice.
Zhao Hao knew what he was going to ask, so he and Zhao Shizhen fell at the end of the line.
Zhao Shizhen couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle, is there really that kind of tool that can automatically drain water and transport?" ”
"Yes." Zhao Hao nodded slightly.
"So, Zhuge Liang Wooden Ox Flowing Horse really exists?" Zhao Shizhen gasped, he never believed that Zhuge Liang could create the kind of automatic animal that didn't need to eat grass or sleep.
"I don't know if Zhuge Liang can make it." Zhao Hao shook his head and said with a smile: "Anyway, I know how to make it." ”
"Really?" Zhao Shizhen didn't believe it at first, and then thought of what happened to his cousin Zhao Shixi, and his little face turned pale with fright, and he slapped his mouth and said, "Uncle said that he can be sure!" ”
"The spirit of questioning is precious and should not be lost at any time." Zhao Hao's requirements for him were diametrically opposed to that Zhao Shixi, and he smiled disapprerovingly: "But questioning should also be based on knowledge, and if you don't know anything, you can't question blindly, that's called Gongjing." ”
After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said: "All the bars in the world can be killed!" ”
"Yes, I remember my uncle." Zhao Shizhen mistakenly thought that his uncle was resentful of Lord Hai, so he had to pretend not to hear it.
He listened to the debate between Zhao Hao and Hai Rui in half of the session before, and he knew that his uncle had a university education. It was then that he made up his mind to learn from his uncle. Then he blurted out: "Please uncle teach me how to make that kind of thing!" ”
"Aren't you going to learn how to make guns?" Zhao Hao laughed teasingly.
"I also want to learn guns, and I want to build this too!" I only heard Zhao Shizhen say with a firm face: "I want to build both!" ”
"No matter which one it is, you can't learn it now...... Zhao Hao shook his head and said: "Before that, you need to learn certain basic knowledge first, have I read your manuscript?" ”
He was referring to the manuscript of A Glimpse of Geometry.
I saw Zhao Shizhen with a bitter face and said: "Not yet, that's really too profound......
Zhao Hao just wanted to comfort him, but he heard Zhao Shizhen continue:
"The nephew is too stupid, and only now has he proved the ...... of five propositions"
"Uh......" Zhao Hao almost fell off the horse, as a zero-based amateur, this is already very powerful, okay?
He was just about to ask which five propositions they were, when he suddenly felt a shake in the mountains, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged the horse's neck.
Only then did I realize that I was really almost off the horse, not a simple psychological reaction.
The rest of the people also hurriedly hugged the horse's neck, and Zhao Shizhen asked in a panic, "Uncle, what's wrong?" ”
The first to react was Ambassador Hou, who shouted, "There is another earthquake!" ”
As he spoke, he swept away his previous tiredness, desperately urged the war horse, and threw off everyone and rushed forward.
The crowd was walking in a long, narrow ravine, flanked by mountain walls.
Ambassador Hou, an experienced ambassador, knew that if an earthquake triggered a landslide, the valley would become a burial place for everyone.
At this time, who cares about Xunqing's younger brother, even Xunqing's ancestor is here, he has to save his life first......

On the snowy slopes of the southern foothills.
The so-called hard work pays off, Xu Yuanchun has been able to slide on the gentle snow surface at turtle speed after beating for most of the day.
"Okay, that's good." Li Chengen looked at Xu Yuanchun with satisfaction, just like an old mother looking at a toddler.
"Hehe, with the genius of this son, as long as you want to learn, there is still one who can't learn?" Xu Yuanchun suddenly became proud when he heard this, and glanced at the small red dots that kept jumping on the snow slope in the distance.
There was another sound and painting in front of him - in the lingering song of "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix", he and the lord of Lanling County crossed the snowfield through the forest and sea, and flew with their eyebrows and wings......
"There is a beautiful woman who will never forget it. I don't see it for a day, and I think like crazy. The phoenix is soaring, seeking the phoenix from all over the world! ”
In that picture with full timbre, Xu Yuanchun only felt his blood boiling, and after chanting a piece of "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix", he shouted loudly to the red figure: "County Lord, I'm here!" ”
As he spoke, he put his hands on his snow poles, and resolutely threw himself out, following the example of the girl leaping on the snow.
Then he drew a graceful arc and planted himself headlong in the snow.
"You want to fly if you can't leave?" Li Chengen smiled bitterly and pulled him out of the snow, and said to Xu Yuanchun, who had become a snowman: "Didn't I tell you not to shout?" If you don't get it right, it will cause an avalanche ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he felt a shake under his feet, and he fell on the snow with his butt, bringing Xu Yuanchun to the ground again.
Then the mountains shook, and the mountains were full of snow foam......
Xu Yuanchun knelt and sat there, dumbfounded: "My voice is really so powerful?" ”
"It's not an avalanche!" Li Chengen was experienced, gritted his teeth and said, "It's an earthquake again!" ”
As he spoke, he stood up and looked in the direction of his sister, despite the shaking of the ground, just in time to see the red figure rise high and fall down the cliff.
"Bright Moon!" Li Chengen's soul was all gone, he screamed in pain, left Xu Yuanchun, and slid quickly towards the location where his sister fell off the cliff.
