Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Acid Rain (2)

At Grandpa Quan's words, the other grandpas and grandmas quickly joined the race against time.

After Long Yu and the others finished moving the supplies to the underground cellar, they split into two teams.

Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi went to the kitchen to help Mother Han and Mother Sima prepare more food, while Long Yu and the rest headed to the backyard to assist Yao Ran and the elders in moving the crops.

By the time Mother Han finished packing the last batch of food, the cumulonimbus clouds were only five kilometers away from Shan Wu Resort.

Crack- Boom!

A deafening thunderclap shook the villa, making everyone tense.

Realizing they didn't have enough time to prepare more food, Mother Sima said urgently, "Let's move the food to the cellar."

Deng Qiqi offered, "Auntie, I will stay here and pack up the remaining ingredients and utensils."

"Alright."

Hearing this, Mother Sima, Mother Han, and Huang Zhihui nodded in agreement and hurriedly began transporting the packed food to the underground cellar.

Meanwhile, Yao Ran and the others continued digging soil in the backyard.

As Yao Ran tied up another bag of soil, she suddenly sneezed. "Achoo!"

Long Yu paused and looked at his girlfriend worriedly, "Ran Ran, are you catching a cold?"

With the temperature still high and steady at 50 degrees Celsius, it seemed unlikely that she would catch a cold.

Sniffing the air, Yao Ran detected a sour, acrid scent. Her eyes widened in alarm, and she said, "It's coming. Everyone, hurry to the underground cellar."

At her warning, Long Yu and the others quickly gathered the soil-filled bags and hauled them into the villa. They also grabbed the farming tools and any remaining water before rushing to safety. Before they could move everything to the cellar, the acid rain arrived.

Realizing there wasn't enough time to transport all the supplies, Long Yu made a quick decision.

"Run to the underground cellar now!" He commanded.

As soon as Long Yu said that, Yao Ran grabbed Grandma Sima, who was nearest to her, and rushed toward the cellar. The others snapped out of their daze, each helping an elder or carrying whatever they could as they followed.

At the entrance of the underground cellar, Huang Zhihui spotted Yao Ran pulling Grandma Sima and shouted, "Elder Sister Yao Ran, hurry up!"

The acid rain intensified as they ran. When a droplet landed on Yao Ran's hand, it caused a stinging, burning pain. She gritted her teeth and quickened her pace while ensuring Grandma Sima didn't fall.
