What unusual things happened before Tangshan earthquake?

According to fishermen in Caijiabao and Beidaihe, fish are crazy. Around July 28, all kinds of fish came up and turned white, which was easy to catch. The fishermen met with unprecedented luck.

Naked children fish with small nets near Qimen River Gate. Fish can catch dozens of pounds of fish in a few hours as long as they jump into the net. Chen Yucheng of Zhaogezhuang Coal Mine in Tangshan said that on July 24th, the goldfish in his two fish tanks scrambled to jump out of the water, get out of the tank and put it back, but they all screamed. Huo of Baigezhuang Fish Farm in Tangshan said that on July 25th, there was an uproar in the fish pond, and grass carp jumped around in droves, and some jumped more than a foot above the water. What's even more surprising is that some fish will turn upside down and stand upside down on the water, but they will circle as fast as possible.

On the sea of Dagukou, Tianjin, south of Tangshan, the crew of the "Changhu" tanker introduced that on July 27th, the jellyfish around the tanker suddenly increased, and groups of small fish swam around in a hurry, put down their hooks, and soon caught more than 100 fish.

Flying insects, birds and bats that have lost their "rationality": The crew of the tanker "Changhu" witnessed that on July 25th, the air around the tanker creaked, and a large group of dragonflies with dark green wings flew in and settled on the ship's windows, masts and ship's side, motionless, and none of them took off. Soon, the commotion on the ship was even greater. A large group of colorful butterflies, native locusts, black cicadas, and many sparrows and unknown birds also flew in, as if it were an unexpected party. Finally, a colorful budgerigar flew in and stood motionless at the stern.

Hundreds of bats were seen flying in the air in broad daylight in Muchang Commune and Xiyingmen Commune on the outskirts of Tianjin. A member of Xitangtuo Brigade, panzhuang Commune, Ninghai County, southern Tangshan, since July 25th, the old Yan under the beam has been throwing Xiaoyan out of the nest every day. The owner picked Xiaoyan up and was thrown out by the old Yan. On July 27th, Lao Yan flew away with the remaining two Xiaoyan. On July 27th, members of Qian 'an Township saw dragonflies flying around like locusts. The flight team is 100 meters wide and lasts from east to west 15 minutes or so. Dragonflies buzzed when they flew by, and the momentum was so great that people were dumbfounded.

The Great Escape and Migration of the Animal Kingdom: On July 27th, people in Wanggaishan, Luannan County, Tangshan area witnessed crowds of rats fleeing in panic. The big mouse ran after the little mouse, and the little mouse bit its tail into a string. Some people were curious and ran after it, but the good-hearted people dissuaded them and said, "Stop fighting, I'm afraid it will send water."

On the morning of July 25th, in Funing County, some people saw 100 weasels, the big ones on their backs and the small ones on their backs, crawling out of the hole in the ancient wall and moving towards the village. When it was dark, a dozen of them wandered under a walnut tree, and five of them were killed on the spot. Others kept wailing and felt afraid of death. On 26th and 27th, this group of weasels continued their activities outside the village, and there was a panic atmosphere.

Sensitive flying insects, large and small birds and animals, took the first step to escape earlier than humans. However, human beings do not realize that this is a warning from nature. They never thought that a catastrophe that would destroy life was coming.

An indelible message: Nature is really warning mankind. On the southeast coast of Tangshan, the waves make exciting sounds. Since the end of July, the fishermen in Beidaihe have been puzzled: how the rocks that have been exposed to the sea have been swallowed up by the sea. In the waters from Caijiabao to Dashentang near Tangshan, fishermen don't seem to believe their eyes: the clear sea has always been, why has it turned into turbid yellow? In the restless depths of the sea, it is like the legendary dragon tail swinging in the depths of the seabed and stirring the soil.

According to a diver who was working in the sea near Qinhuangdao at that time, he saw a colorful light band, like a golden dragon, which was fleeting.
