Dali earthquake

At 7 o'clock in the morning, I was awakened by a clear shaking. Before people fully woke up, I realized that it might be an earthquake. I quickly searched the internet and found that it had shaken three times just now. The focal point of the latest earthquake was Cangshan, 4 kilometers away, which is why the whole Dali was awakened when the magnitude did not exceed 4.

I am calm when I talk about this now, but I am too scared to fall asleep again.

Remembering when I decided to come to Dali before, I asked my friend who had stayed in Dali for a long time, why not stay in Dali? She said there was an earthquake there. I heard about it at that time, but I just thought it was a noun in the news, and I didn't think it had anything to do with myself. I didn't understand the seriousness of this matter until now when it really shook me.

Do you want to change cities? I just agreed with an innkeeper the day before that I would stay with her for a month. Will this be another revelation, just like the cancellation of my previous flight to Hainan? To tell the truth, even I, an atheist, began to think before the real death threat came.

I couldn't sleep over and over again, so I found comfort in the previous discussion, one of which was very funny.

Some people say that leaving a familiar city to change to another city and dying in the earthquake will be laughed at by others.

The following comments from netizens are very powerful, which made me wake up.

Yes, no place is absolutely safe from all kinds of natural disasters and epidemics this year. After I figured it out, I went back to sleep and moved to a new inn after waking up. The boss was very talkative, so we naturally talked about the earthquake in the morning.

She said that she was awakened by the earthquake and found that it was only 3.7. She thought it was because she was old that she made such a fuss. In May this year, Dali visited Skyquake more than 30 times. With that experience, I won't make a fuss this time.

Furthermore, due to the earthquake of magnitude 7 in Dali in 1925, the whole city was almost razed to the ground, and the government required that all new houses must be able to withstand the earthquake of magnitude 6, and no houses should be built without money. So although Dali was shaken more than 30 times in May, and the ground under its feet was shaking, nothing happened to the house, and it stood there in vain.

After listening to the innkeeper's words, I was much relieved and decided to stay first and talk about the future later.
