The fire at the distant base has been put out, but there is still thick smoke rising into the sky.

Zhou Jianghai looked at the base and sighed worriedly, "Alas, I don't know what's happened to this base. I hope the damage isn't too great."

Zhong Tiyun was also worried: "Yes, if the base is destroyed, what will we do in the future?"

Grandma Pang was the most open-minded. She patted Zhong Tiyun's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, good things will happen to you. Everything will be fine."

Grandma Pang’s words made Zhong Tiyun feel a little relieved, but the worry between her brows could not be wiped away.

Mu Mu ate the cookies silently without saying a word, his little face full of maturity and worry that did not match his age.

From time to time, he looked up towards the base, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

After eating the biscuits, Zhou Shuwan packed up his things and put them back into his backpack.

She looked up at the sky, which was gray and looked like it was going to snow again.

Her heart sank suddenly. If another snowstorm came under such circumstances, it would mean that God would leave her no chance of survival.

She had personally experienced a snowstorm outdoors, which was so strong that it could easily sweep away an adult. If a snowstorm occurred when everyone was outside avoiding the earthquake, who knows how many people would die in the end!

Suddenly, she heard some noise over there and turned her head to look.

It turned out that Xiaoliu and Sangzi took turns carrying Tao Zheng, carefully stepping over the crack in the ground and coming to their side.

Sangzi looked back at the bottomless crack from time to time and swallowed with lingering fear.

The three of them also came to the boulder, and Zhou Jianghai gave his small stool to Tao Zheng.

Tao Zheng and others hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

Tao Zheng's ankle has mostly healed, but he still can't exert force.

He slowly sat down on the stool.

Zhou Shuwan squatted down and moved his right ankle with both hands, and the other party gasped.

Zhou Shuwan sighed and shook his head: "The injury was too severe last time, so I still need to take good care of myself. If I can stay still, I'll do it."

Tao Zheng was quite open-minded and nodded: "Fortunately, Xiaoliu and Sangzi helped me."

Zhou Shuwan then handed over another box of painkillers from his backpack: "If there really is a special situation, stop the pain first and save your life."

"Thank you!" Tao Zheng expressed his gratitude sincerely.

Zhou Shuwan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You don't need to thank me. You saved me and ended up hurting yourself. I should be the one thanking you!"

Qi Mingyu also patted Tao Zheng's shoulder: "It's us two who should thank you."

"Alright! Why are you being so sentimental?" Xiao Liu interrupted. He had been carrying Tao Zheng all the way here. After all, Tao Zheng was a man weighing over 150 pounds, and he was panting the moment he arrived. "Now what we need to do is figure out what to do next?"

Sang Zi also nodded: "This earthquake... is much smaller than the big earthquake predicted."

"Indeed." Qi Mingyu murmured, "According to the prediction in the video, the intensity of this earthquake is far too small."

He turned and looked at Zhou Shuwan calmly.

Zhou Shuwan understood what he meant and shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know the reason either.

She lowered her eyes to hide the worry in them.

The earthquake in the previous life occurred during the Eternal Night period. There were no avalanches, only landslides and cracks in the ground, leaving the whole place devastated.

Although this earthquake also caused great damage, its scale was indeed much smaller than she remembered.

"Could it be just a foreshock?" Zhou Jianghai said hesitantly.

Zhong Tiyun quickly interjected, "Pfft, pfft, what nonsense!" She glanced around nervously, "I hope it's not a foreshock. This one is bad enough already."

"Whether it's a foreshock or not, we can't let our guard down." Tao Zheng coughed lightly and looked at the others: "What are your plans? What are you going to do next?"

Qi Mingyu pondered for a moment, then looked up at Tao Zheng: "What about you guys? What are your plans?"

Tao Zheng looked around and said slowly, "Generally speaking, an earthquake will last for several days, or even longer. We can't stay here forever. Without a tent, it's inconvenient to stay, and without supplies, it's not a long-term solution."
