The Daughter of the Enchanted in the Modern Age

Chapter 191

"A landslide accident?"

“Yes, Miss Xia. Now that someone's family caused trouble at the scene of the accident, we can't persuade them at all. The project has stopped, what should we do? Should I call CEO Shen?”

The person in charge glanced at "Miss Xia" spoken of by CEO Shen, who covered her face with a mask, but could not hide her beauty. He's very worried.

Initially, Shen Qian said that there was Miss Xia who came for the examination. Looking at her appearance, she thought she was Shen Qian's lover. In the end, seeing that Xuan Sheng was taking care of her in every way, the person in charge thought that she was the daughter of an investor who had come to experience life.

However, with such a huge engineering accident, how could he still have the mood to play with Xia Wanyuan? He immediately called Shen Qian over.

"unneeded. Take me there."

“Miss Xia, this accident is no small matter. I think we should report it to CEO Shen first. What if something happens?” The person in charge did not trust Xia Wanyuan.

“Then proceed.” Xia Wanyuan stood up and walked out the door.

As expected, not long after, the one in charge followed. 

"Miss Xia, CEO Shen asked me to listen to your orders."

"Let's go. Leading."

Although the person in charge was unwilling, since Shen Qian had said so, he could only bring Xia Wanyuan to the accident site with a stomach full of doubt.

"Why are you here?" Xuan Sheng stood to the side. The people below were communicating with the family.

“Come and see. What the hell is going on?"

“The person suffered a broken bone due to a rock avalanche. His injuries were not serious, but his family caused a huge commotion. They might try to trick us.”

Xuan Sheng also felt strange. He woke up early. He thought the matter had exploded, but after listening to the curse of the rat for half an hour, his head ached.

“Bring them away first. We are wasting time here.” Xia Wanyuan glanced at that chaotic scene. The family had brought in many helpers and forced the construction to stop.

“No, Miss Xia, this family member brought a group of people here. It is not comfortable for us to be involved in conflict. There are so many people watching.” 

The person in charge is in a difficult position. He had just fallen from the top and this was the first time he had faced such a situation. However, family members of the victims remain unreasonable. He's out of his mind.

“You should have brought someone, right?” Xia Wanyuan turned to Xuan Sheng.

"Yes." Yeah." 

Xuan Sheng raised his astute eyes. The old fart from Glory World Corporation wanted to bite him whenever they had the chance. When he came out normally, there were many people protecting him both blatantly and secretly.

“Lend me. Let's just say I owe you.”

"okay." 

Xuan Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and gestured. A dozen trained guards gathered.

“Do you not want to seek justice by taking them to the entrance of the Public Security Bureau to cry? Go there and take your time.” Xia Wanyuan's voice gradually attracted the attention of those around her. Even the family members, who had been wailing, stopped and looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise.

Xia Wanyuan reached out and pointed at the people hugging the switch on the floor and refused to let go. 

“Erase them. I will be responsible if they are injured or disabled.”

Xuan Sheng looked and the guards stepped forward. How could the horde fit in with a professional guard? They were subdued in some movements. Officers found a brick truck at the scene and put it in it. Then, he dragged them to the city police station.

Xuan Sheng seemed to be thinking of something. He asked someone to find a chair and leaned lazily on it, seeing Xia Wanyuan smiling mischievously.

"Let's go and see that limestone cave." Since they were already there, Xia Wanyuan might as well enter and investigate.

“Alright, follow me.” 

The one in charge led the way for Xia Wanyuan while Xuan Sheng followed slowly behind.

As they entered the cold mountain, Xia Wanyuan suddenly felt that something was amiss.

Seeing Xia Wanyuan stop in her tracks, the person in charge turned around in confusion. 

"What's wrong, Miss Xia?"

Xia Wanyuan stood by the mountain wall and placed her hand on the rock to quietly feel it for a few seconds. It was as if something was shaking and was going to come out of his body. Xia Wanyuan's eyes instantly turned sharp.

“Here dangerous. Let's go!"

As soon as Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, the person in charge, who had just lowered his head, suddenly dashed out of the mountain gate. His strong skills did not look like a polite business manager at all. Xia Wanyuan was far away from him. By the time he reacted to catch her, he had already slipped out the door.

It was unknown what mechanism he pressed on the originally bright door, but the stone door immediately fell down.

At the same time, the ground started shaking violently. Under such a powerful tremor, the mountain began to topple countless rocks. There was a rumble outside, and inside the cave, huge boulders were scattered.

"F*ck!" 

Xuan Sheng could not help but curse gently. 'Can earthquakes be controlled by humans?'

As Xuan Sheng dodged the falling stone, he followed Xia Wanyuan to check if the door was open.

“We can't get out.” Xia Wanyuan remembered the terrain outside. Around this mountain were several mountains taller than him, and they were very close. Under such tremors, even if he could get out, he would be hit by a huge rock. Xia Wanyuan made a quick decision. 

With that, Xia Wanyuan wanted to run into the cave.

"Be careful!" 

Seeing the huge boulder that was half the height of the person crashing towards Xia Wanyuan, Xuan Sheng was shocked. He immediately reached out to pull Xia Wanyuan away, but he did not notice the stone that fell from his head.

Xia Wanyuan shrank. The stone directly struck Xuan Sheng. Xia Wanyuan pulled Xuan Sheng away, but it was too late to dodge. In a moment of despair, Xia Wanyuan flew up and kicked the rock to the side.

The huge impact from the kick made Xia Wanyuan's legs weaken. Amidst the chaos of flying sand and rolling stones, Xuan Sheng could clearly hear the sound of broken bones.

"Are you okay?" Xuan Sheng panicked. He hurriedly helped Xia Wanyuan up. He did not pay attention to the debris that fell on him.

"Go to the northwest." Xia Wanyuan gnashed her teeth, her gaze firm.

Xia Wanyuan had just seen it. The mountain was extremely fragile, and there was more land than stone. Under such tremors, it was likely that the cave would not last long before it was filled with earth and rocks.

There seemed to be less land and rocks falling towards the northwest. Maybe we can find a more solid place.

Xuan Sheng used his hands to protect Xia Wanyuan's head in case any rocks hit him as he dashed northwest with her.

As expected, in a small corner in the northwest direction, the stone was extremely hard. Even with such a strong vibration, not many stones fell.

Xuan Sheng carried Xia Wanyuan and sat down near the stone wall. The vibration underground was still very violent and showed no signs of weakening. Xia Wanyuan frowned.

Will the earthquake last that long?

However, he did not have time to think too much. The pain he did not feel in his panic just now slowly came out from between his legs. He instantly climbed up with that kick now, and his legs were numb now.

Xia Wanyuan looked down. His leg might break, so he reached out and tore his sleeve. Xia Wanyuan touched the stone slab and tied it. The excruciating pain made Xia Wanyuan sweat.

However, Xia Wanyuan's hands did not stop. He firmly fixed the place he was injured to prevent his bones from misplaced.

"I'm sorry. I've implicated you.” Xuan Sheng silently watched Xia Wanyuan wrap a rough stone slab around her beautiful calf. At that moment, Xia Wanyuan was scratched or covered in dust. Xuan Sheng, who had always been a clean freak, felt that he was extremely clean.

There was clearly something wrong with the person in charge earlier. Xuan Sheng felt that it was the deeds of the parents of the Glory World Corporation.

"It wasn't your fault. She should have been here for me,”Xia Wanyuan thought for a moment and suddenly said. As the person in charge turned around to make sure that they were trapped inside and could not get out, he looked at her.

The earth and the rocks keep falling. The originally small cave gradually piled up rocks as tall as people as time passed, filling the entire cave. Just in the northwest corner, less than two square meters, there was a gap.

Xia Wanyuan took out her phone. As expected, there was no signal. This was at the foot of the mountain, and the signal was very weak. Under such an earthquake, the base station outside might be damaged.

"What should we do now?" 

Xuan Sheng looked at the ground and rocks higher than him. He couldn't even stretch his legs. He frowned tightly. Who knows how long it will take for rescuers to find them?

Outside of the mountain, it was even more serious than Xia Wanyuan had imagined. "This "earthquake" affected the entire Lin Xi City, and even the surrounding cities had extremely strong tremors.

That's fucked. It is summer river flood season, and a violent earthquake triggers the dam collapse. Half of the city was submerged in the flood.

Bodies are everywhere.

The accident was too big. Immediately, everyone's eyes were fixed on this city of disaster.

After Shen Qian learned of this, she immediately contacted Xia Wanyuan. All he received was “the number you contacted was not in the service area.”

Shen Qian had been in the industry for many years. She knew about the awkward relationship between the Xia family and Xia Wanyuan, as well as her celebrity status. Therefore, he did not immediately inform Xia Yuanqing of the news but contacted Chen Yun.

"What?!!! You said that Wanyuan is in Lin Xi City ?!” Chen Yun could not even hold the phone properly.

When Xia Wanyuan left, she simply said that she had something to pay attention to in another city. They had absolutely no idea where Xia Wanyuan had gone. Looking at the scene on television where wolves were everywhere, Chen Yun's heart sank.

“Thank you, CEO Shen. Please keep it a secret for now.” After hanging up the phone, Chen Yun immediately went to the manor.

Uncle Wang, who was casually watering the plants, dropped the kettle upon hearing this news.

Uncle Wang was very anxious. He knew that Jun Shiling's matter in F Continent was very important, but thinking that Xia Wanyuan's life was still unknown, Uncle Wang decided to call Jun Shiling immediately.

In the command center two thousand meters below the F Continent, there was only a special signal path.

In the large meeting room, there were nearly a thousand people seated. Jun Shiling sat on the stage and listened to the reports one by one. On the 3D screen, the infrared light flashes.

"I'll increase Lie Dun's military budget by two billion more." After seeing the display on the screen, Jun Shiling gave the command. “Poison Scorpion 1 once appeared in a slum north of Lie Dun. According to the customs of Old K, he will choose the city in the south as the first explosion point.”

Jun Shiling was about to continue when Bo Xiao suddenly rushed onto the stage and said something to Jun Shiling.

Later, everyone saw that the usually stern and cruel Zeus was actually very confused, scaring everyone.

How frightening could this person be to panic?!
