MMB Chapter 523 Volcanic Eruption
Chapter 523 Volcanic Eruption
"So it is."
Lu Ming observed for a while, and sure enough, the people who were unwilling to leave and were still confronting the townspeople were old people of considerable age.
These old men and women are not too young. Taking advantage of their health, they signed up for a tour group to come to Iceland to see the aurora. They said that Eyjafjallajökull was the best angle to see the aurora. expelled by the townspeople.
Can this family bear it? The old man and the old lady have never suffered from this kind of anger in her life. How could she agree to this kind of thing? She immediately started working with the town's management personnel. Now many young people have left, only the old people and The townspeople confronted.
"Tell me, tell me, they said that the volcano is about to erupt. Isn't that bullshit? Besides, even if the volcano erupts, it will take a few days from the time they detect the signs to the actual eruption, just say whatever you want. The volcano is about to erupt, and I think we old people are easy to deceive."
The old man kept chattering about how much the townspeople went too far, his tone was full of dissatisfaction and anger, and he felt that he was being bullied when he was old.
"Fire explosion?!"
Lu Ming grasped the main point of the old man's words, and his heart suddenly froze. What the townspeople mean is that the Eyjafjallajökull volcano is about to erupt again after more than ten years?
The Eyjafjallajökull volcano has never been a good boy. It is a very naughty and mischievous one among the volcanoes. I don't know how many times it has erupted since its formation.
The most recent eruption was in the spring of ten years ago, in March 2010, Eyjafjallajökull began its first eruption in 190 years. The eruption created a five-hundred-meter-long fissure and produced a spectacular eruption of lava.
The lava spurts piled up several hills of foamy volcanic rock along the crater, and a lava stream spread northeast and into the valley of Haronagir.
However, the Eyjafjallajökull volcano did not cause many casualties when there were not many people under the mountain at that time, and people were more worried about another volcano.
Each eruption of Eyjafjallajökull historically has caused the eruption of another, larger volcano called Katra, located eight miles west of the erupting volcano.
If the violent volcanic activity woke the big guy, the damage would be far greater than it was at the time.
That is, there will be more massive floods, and traffic paralysis will spread from Europe to North America.
Therefore, when Lu Ming heard the words "volcanic eruption", the first thing that came to Lu Ming's mind was what would happen if the Katra Volcano erupted.
If Katla erupted, the situation would be dire.
Chen Xuan was dumbfounded when he heard the words "volcanic eruption", his eyes widened: "Lu Shen, they mean that this volcano is about to erupt?"
"Not necessarily. If this volcano erupted, it would be fine, but if it was another bigger volcano, it would be bad.",
Thinking of the possible situation, Lu Ming's eyes were very solemn, and he walked quickly to the group of townspeople who were driving away the tourists, and found a townsman with a more friendly face to confirm the situation: "Hello, I'm a new tourist, listen. Is it true that they say this volcano is about to erupt?"
When the townspeople heard this, they immediately panicked and said loudly: "It's not the Eyjafjallajökull volcano, it's the Katra volcano not far away, and we only got the news this morning that the Katra volcano is about to erupt, and other tourists hurry up. If we leave, these old people will not be able to find us as soon as they leave, and no one will give them money back and do not want to leave."
"They have to refund the money now. You said that there is no need to prepare cash for business now. This volcano is about to erupt. The most important thing is life or money."
"Sure enough Katla Volcano!"
Lu Ming's heart trembled as soon as he heard the beginning.
The eruption of Eyjafjallajökull is at most only affected by air traffic and the environment, and once the Katla volcano erupts, the hot lava will attack the ground. At that time, it will not only be a little traffic problem, but the buildings and residents near the bottom of the mountain will be threatened by the magma. .
This group of old men and women gambled their own lives for travel expenses and aurora, which is simply stupid.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming immediately turned around and walked back, his face was very dignified, and said to Chen Xuan, who was beside him: "As I expected, the Katra Volcano is about to erupt, and we are about to pass the foot of the Katra Volcano on our way to the hotel. You must leave quickly."
"What, what about those old people?" Chen Xuan immediately thought of the old people who were entangled with the townspeople.
Hearing this, Lu Ming paused and glanced back, just in time to see that the two parties had reached a settlement and were walking towards the parking lot together, feeling a little relieved.
"When we first came, I saw a tour bus in the parking lot. They should be leaving here by bus now."
To be honest, it was really unbearable to tell me to keep so many people here, so when Chen Xuan was talking just now, he almost ran to the crowd to report his identity and let him go with him.
Fortunately, after the persuasion of the town management staff, the old men and the old ladies finally became less stubborn and agreed to leave first and then pay compensation.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult to do this today.
When taking Chen Xuan and Chu Yusuo towards the parking lot, Lu Ming didn't notice that a blond man was quietly watching him among the old people...
...
Daxia, Modu International Airport.
When a large number of tourists who were going to Iceland were about to take a plane, a loud announcement suddenly sounded in the airport.
"Dear passengers, I'm sorry to tell you the bad news. Due to the weather, all the planes to Iceland will stop taking off. The grounding time is unknown. The planes that have taken off will land at the nearest airport. Passengers, please understand!"
"Dear passengers, I'm sorry..."
After the first broadcast, the tourists were still a little confused. After listening to the second broadcast, the crowd suddenly boiled.
"What's wrong with my trip? Why are all the planes going to Iceland grounded?"
"I don't know. I bought air tickets for the whole family, and I plan to go and see what Lushen travels like."
"What did the radio say, the weather? I just checked the weather. The weather in Iceland has been very good these days, much better than usual."
"Yeah, I have checked the weather in the countries along the way. There are no tornadoes, right?"
"That is how the matter?"
When the tourists were complaining and questioning each other, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Fuck you, look at the online news, the news says that a volcano in Iceland is about to erupt."
"what?!!!"
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly took out the words "Iceland Volcano" on their mobile phones, and the first news that jumped out of the page was a few oversized exclamation marks.
