Edo Traveler
Vol 9 Chapter 53: The world collapses
earthquake!
Chungemon ran out subconsciously. Halfway through the run, he suddenly thought of his wife and children at home, and was about to look for it, but the shaking from the left to right was so intense that everyone couldn't stand still, let alone leave.
One of his feet was unstable, and Chuemon just fell to the ground. Don't mention what kind of person looks like a dog outside at this time, let's talk about it if you can climb out first. If the house collapses, everything will stop.
Climbing out of the house with both hands and feet, there are already two figures in the huge courtyard. Chungemon didn't care about his image, so he climbed up and found that one was Kurokawa Keitoku, and the other was a maid who was watching the fire and tea at home.
"Hurry up, madam!" Tadaoemon grabbed Kurokawa Keitoku and pointed to the room.
"Yes, yes..." Kurokawa Qingde is still trembling at this time. In front of the mighty power of nature, the so-called people are nothing more than ants, and they are crushed as soon as they grind over.
Before Kurokawa Keito stood up, the shaking of the earth gradually stopped. People of all kinds in the house ran out one after another. Chuemon saw that his wife and children were all right at a glance.
I really want to thank Sagara Hou Tanuma Yoji. The house he built is really strong, and there is no collapse in such a big earthquake. Chuemon decided to have a chance to take care of his descendants, and then give him an honor.
"Are you okay? Are you okay?" Chungemon hurriedly got up and rushed to his wife and children.
The two children cried loudly, and the female relatives were also panicked, but fortunately, the main parts of the body were all there, and there was no appearance of injury. In such a catastrophe, it is fortunate that people are fine.
"It's okay... It's okay..." Alan hugged her little daughter and kept looking at Shi Wan.
There were all kinds of noisy shouts around, and the loud noise of the collapse of houses. Chuemon doesn't talk about any measure at this time, but just looks around to see if everyone in the house, old and young servants, are safe.
Now I should quickly find a large enough space. From the violent shaking just now, the magnitude of this earthquake is very high, at least above seven, otherwise the nearby houses will not collapse in patches. An earthquake of this level, even if it is an aftershock, may have a magnitude of five or six, and it will still kill people.
The best way is of course to flee directly to hundreds of kilometers away, but that is not realistic at all. It is better to greet the family members and run to the school field of the transfer team. The school grounds are open enough and large enough to be used as a temporary shelter, which is very suitable.
What about the books in the house?
In this age, when there is a big earthquake, Manchuria is full of wooden buildings, which will inevitably cause huge fires. When the time comes, the fire will hit, not to mention the books, and it will be difficult to save people.
But the books in Chuemon's house are the hard work of many years of collection and preservation since Watanabe Kasayama's criminal investigation of the house. Many of these books are even manuscripts. If they are lost, it may be difficult to find them again. It is not impossible even to be completely obliterated in history.
"Shinhachiro, you immediately take your wife and them to the school grounds!" There was no way for Chuemon.
In the end, people are more important. Right now, there is a mess everywhere, and it can only save lives. The collection of books at home, let it be fate.
"Then your highness?"
Several maids took advantage of the calm now, and then went inside to take some clothes, and helped the women and children to leave. Kurokawa Keitoku is the retainer of Chuemon, and he must be more concerned about Chuemon.
"I have to go to the castle." Chuemon pointed out the direction of the castle.
"Understood, the minister placed the Imperial Curtain Central Hall, and went to the city to wait." The agreement was made, and Kurokawa Qingde quickly took a few attendants to follow Alan and the others who had fled.
Chuemon looked around, went back to the house and put on his clothes, then brought a pot of clean water, and ran towards the Homami Yagura in Honmachi. The most convenient way to observe the situation in Edo is to monitor the fire in each town.
Fortunately, the Huojian scull in Honmachi did not collapse, but the personnel guarding the Huojin scull were nowhere to be seen. But think about it, it's a big earthquake like this, and everyone has fleeed desperately.
Missing the crowds who had fled outside the city with their packages, Chungemon climbed up to the Huojin Yagura. Not surprisingly, the entire Edo is completely a doomsday scene.
Because the earthquake occurred at 10:11 in the middle of the night, the entire Edo was already asleep, and the sudden earthquake quickly destroyed most of the simple-built houses. The people who were crushed under the rubble were obviously ill-adjusted.
Even more unfortunate things are happening. In addition to the aftershocks from time to time, Chuemon has discovered two very obvious fire scenes with his naked eyes.
One is west of Sensoji Temple and the other is Koishikawa.
The north wind was strong at night, and the fire was going to burn the entire Edo city. Frightened cries were endless, and the fleeing crowds gathered together, looking for a way out in the fire that broke out everywhere.
Suddenly an aftershock struck, and Chungemon tightly grasped the wooden frame of Huomiru, and he knelt on the ground, shaking constantly. After a catastrophe, I don't know how many lives will be filled into the abyss of this disaster.
I was sighing bitterly, even in the darkness, a tall Edo main castle suddenly brightened up. No need to ask, Chuemon just glanced at it and knew that it was the fire that started in Nishimaru, Honjo.
Because the Tokugawa family moved to Central Austria, most of the family members of Tokugawa Jiaqing were nuns and lived in the bhikkhuni residence under the city. Edo Castle Nishimaru's guard and patrol force became empty. Obviously because of the violent earthquake, UU reading www.uukanshu.com caused the source of illumination somewhere in Nishimaru to be lost, and then there was an uncontrollable fire.
House seemingly endless rain!
Without time to think about anything else, Chuemon immediately ran to Edo Castle. If the fire endangered the life of Tokugawa's family, it would be a bolt from the blue for the shogunate who was in the midst of the storm.
The country relies on Tokugawa’s “Chairman”, if it is replaced by Shiwan who is completely unable to govern, the world will be in chaos, and the princes will not be respectful.
The fire on all sides is getting more and more blazing, and Edo in the hot mid-October is like the midsummer of July and August. Tadaoemon, who had only one attendant by his side, was unable to prevent this from happening. Apart from running and running towards Edo Castle, he could not do anything else.
When I arrived at Edo Castle, I discovered that Edo Castle had collapsed. The walls and stone walls collapsed on a large scale, the gates had fallen, the fire in Nishimaru was soaring, and the city was crying endlessly.
The samurai who had been on duty either died or fled, and some even jumped into the moat, struggling in the water, calling for help. However, there was no rescue at all, and after drinking a few sips of dirty water, he sank into the water.
