Chapter 71: Earthquake Rescue, Tears Shed by Ancient People

Chapter 71

"Movies and television have a similar effect; they are mediums we use in our world for leisure and entertainment," said the narrator.

Outside the city gate, the commoners gradually quieted down.

Under imperial authority, no one dared to speak much without evidence.

Even more so, they would not become disheartened with the emperor just because of Gu Sang's few words - that was unrealistic, because they needed to see it with their own eyes!

So after the initial uproar, the commoners calmly resumed watching the live broadcast.

"The people of later generations are so fortunate, not only do they eat well, but they can also enjoy leisure and entertainment. Unlike us, who spend an entire lifetime worrying about merely surviving each day."

"That's right, in order to watch the Immortal Being's live broadcast, I completed all my farm chores in advance before daring to take time off."

The movie began with two married families.

Although the ancients found the plot a bit dull, they enjoyed watching novel things, and each of them discussed it with great relish.

The scenes gradually transitioned.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was sound asleep, an earthquake suddenly struck.

Suddenly!

Every person in the city received an alert on their phones.

A phone alert, a city-wide warning: "Beep beep beep!!! Earthquake in one minute."

"An earthquake is imminent!"

This was the first time the ancients saw the emotions of panic, fear, and dread on the faces of people from the future world.

They watched as the people in the movie were jolted awake in the middle of the night.

Then, disregarding even their money, they held their children tightly and ran downstairs frantically.

"What is going on? Why are they all running out? Didn't they say there were no wars in the future world?" one of the ancients asked suspiciously.

The next second!

The ancients witnessed the entire building start to shake, and a mother holding her child fell from the upper floors.

Then more and more people started fleeing in panic and screaming.

In the movie -

It barked frantically and began digging towards the woman's location.

The dog's commotion alerted the other rescuers.

"Quick, there's still someone here!"

The other rescuers rushed over and finally cleared away the heavy rubble in front of them.

What was reflected before them...

Was half a steel rebar piercing the husband's back as he used his body to shield his wife below, his knees bent, straining with all his might to prop up the concrete above.

At the moment the rescue dog appeared before the woman!

All the ancients cheered loudly, tears flowing uncontrollably once more.

"She's saved! She's saved!"

"That dog is so amazing, if I were rescued, I would definitely take this dog home and treat it like an ancestor, well-fed and pampered."

"Are these people heroes? Why are they not afraid of death? They know that place could collapse, yet they still went in fearlessly to rescue people."

"I saw several male rescuers get buried underneath and crushed to death!"

The camera panned around again, with volunteers rushing in from all directions.

Those youthful faces, using their utmost strength to help.

With the addition of these out-of-town rescuers, the doctors and nurses in white coats could finally take turns resting.

The ancients saw people bringing prepared meals to the disaster area, and not a single disaster victim tried to snatch or disrupt order - they remained calm and did not cause trouble for the country.

After their loved ones were rescued, they wept tears of joy, embracing each other...

The child abandoned by her father was rescued, and she glared angrily at her father who had fled alone, crying out "I hate you! My mother was crushed to death trying to save me!"

After the movie ended.

All the ancients were sobbing inconsolably, unable to detach from the movie they had just witnessed.

"I always thought that people in the future would only be strong in military force and have plenty of food, but after watching this movie, I realized that they are actually very united. They won't try to profit from the chaos of troubled times, but rather support each other when one side is in difficulty."

"They are all men, but some abandoned their wives and children to flee for their lives."

"While others used their lives to protect their wives, even though that couple was already in the process of divorcing. Ah, you can't really tell a person's true nature until the very last moment."

"That dog moved me. That person was trapped under the rubble for three days, thinking they were doomed, but unexpectedly the dog discovered them and saved them. Woo woo woo woo."

"What touched me the most was that people from all over the country rushed to help. They were all doing their utmost, and even faced death without fear in order to save just one more life!"
