Ye Qinghong said: "Brother Zhang, if you feel troublesome, I will help you eliminate your mouth, and all the troubles will be over." ”

Hai Mingzhu screamed in fright and hurriedly approached Zhang Longbow, one hand had already grabbed Zhang Longbow's arm, Zhang Longbow's face was purple, Luo Lie and the blind man couldn't help laughing, Hai Mingzhu looked up at the sky, only to see that the moon shadow above his head was a little blurry, and a little red, and suddenly said: "It's bad, it's going to be a storm!"

Luo Lie and the others looked up when they heard her say this, and the blind man thought that she had drunk too much, so he cut and said, "You are drunk!"

Hai Mingzhu said: "You are just drunk, my father has taught me to look at the weather since I was a child, this storm is very big, and it is ......" Before she finished speaking, the wind had already risen, and several people hurriedly turned around to avoid the wind blowing off and the ashes blinded their eyes.

Zhang Longbow was worried that the wind would cause a forest fire if the wind blew the sparks, so he carried a bucket of seawater against the wind to extinguish the bonfire, and this time, the wind was much stronger, and they prepared to return to the ship to rest before the storm came. However, the boat he was in before broke the rope in the wind and drifted farther and farther.

Their boat was still some distance from the shore, and the water was in danger if they were forced back to the ship, and the tide rose rapidly, further narrowing the distance between them and the big ship, and the waves were also higher and higher, and if they forced their way back to the ship, they would definitely encounter danger.

Luo Lie said decisively: "Let's find a sheltered place to hide from the wind first, and then talk about it when the wind is light." ”

The rest of the people also thought of him.

Hai Mingzhu said, "Follow me!" She led the way and led a few people into a cave southeast of Naruka Island, where she had been here before.

As soon as the five people walked into the cave, it was pouring rain outside, and they didn't take a few steps to see a corpse that had long been decayed, although the blind man was still startled although he had been mentally prepared, the corpse was wearing a military uniform, and there was a knife stuck in his chest, the tip of the knife came out of his chest, and it seemed that he was attacked from behind and stabbed through the body.

The blind man said to the pearl of the sea: "Do you recognize it?"

Hai Mingzhu looked at the corpse that had been corrupted to the point that only the skeleton remained, it was strange that he could recognize it, and recalled the past: "The last time I came here was five years ago, when there was a battle here with my father chasing the people of the White Shark Gang. ”

Luo Lie and Ye Qinghong glanced at each other, it is common for pirates to fight for treasure, the White Shark Gang is also one of the pirate teams that rampant in the East China Sea, and was later defeated by the Sea Dragon Gang and driven out of the East China Sea, the Sea Dragon Gang dominated for a while, but it didn't last long, and was finally forced to leave this sea area.

The cave used to be one of the White Shark Shark Gang lairs on the sea, and the structure of the cave resembled a large gourd, with a narrow entrance, which became wide as you entered, and narrowed again as you entered, and then you could enter the second half of the cave.

Two iron gates were set up in the place where the second narrowing was set, and the iron doors were locked, but this was not enough for the blind man, who opened the two locks in less than a minute, and the cave inside was the place used by the White Shark Gang to store supplies and weapons in the past, and it was basically emptied, but there were still some left.

The ammunition left behind alone was enough to arm a small army, Zhang Longbow and Hai Mingzhu collected and checked the remaining weapons and ammunition, while the blind man was busy checking the cans and wine stored inside, Luo Lie asked Ye Qinghong to help, and he turned back to the entrance of the cave, the rain outside was very strong, the wind was blowing and raining, and the rain was flying in the air, and it was impossible to tell where it fell. The wind swept the waves, the waves crashed on the shore, and let out a low roar like a wild beast.

Standing in Luo Hunt's position, you can see the waves like a wall, wave after wave hitting the island, and the place where they lit the bonfire just now has been swallowed by the waves. There is a purple brilliance between the sea and the sky, it is impossible to tell whether it is lightning or starlight, and in the monstrous waves, you can see part of the silhouette of the Pearl, which has fallen anchor and is anchored in the leeward place of Naruka Island, so it should be fine.

Luo Lie remembered Lao An's reminder, and he really didn't deceive himself.

Lu Weilin raised his binoculars and looked into the distance, because he couldn't see his companions on the island due to the limitation of his vision, the storm occurred shortly after Luo Hunt and the five people landed on the island, as long as it was not at sea, there should not be much danger, but in this way, Luo Hunt and they should not be able to return to the ship in the short term.

Lu Weilin remembered Lao An's words before, and he turned around and walked to the cabin where Lao An was being held.

"How do you know?" This is not only Lu Weilin but also everyone feels strange, why did Lao An predict the existence of this storm before this, is the change in weather really related to the solar terms?

Lao An said with a smile: "I just know, and you don't understand it." He didn't know about Luo Lie and the others landing on the island, so he glanced behind Lu Weilin and said, "What about Luo Lie? ”

Lu Weilin said: "He doesn't want to see you." ”

Lao An had already guessed the clue from Lu Weilin's response, and said with a smile: "He went to the island, right?"

Lu Weilin had already learned his cunning, and it was normal for him to see through this matter.

Seeing that Lu Weilin didn't answer, Lao An thought that this was tantamount to acquiescence, and sighed softly: "Luo Lie is a talent, although he doubts my motives, but he still has more eyes, so he chose to anchor in Minglu Island for one night." ”

Lu Weilin said indifferently: "You always think too much, in fact, Luo Lie is just to smile and want to see the sunrise on Minglu Island tomorrow." ”

Lao An said: "I hope he has a chance to ......" after a pause, he said: "See tomorrow's sunrise." ”

On the way back, Luo Lie met Ye Qinghong, who came to look for him, Ye Qinghong was still a little worried about him coming out alone, so he came out to look for him.

Luo Lie briefly explained the situation outside, although there was a storm and turbidity outside, but they could avoid this ordeal in the cave at present, even if this wind and rain would not stop for a short time, they could also rely on the canned food stored in the cave to solve the problem of eating.

Ye Qinghong said: "How could Lao An know that there would be a storm here?"

Luo Lie said: "Maybe it's just a coincidence." Suddenly there was a thunder outside, and the thunder seemed to hit the outside of the cave, shaking the entire cave trembling, and the sand and stones on the top of the cave fell, Luo Lie subconsciously took Ye Qinghong into his arms, and used his body to shield her from the sand and stones falling above her head, so as not to hurt her.

Ye Qinghong snuggled tightly in Luo Lie's arms, Luo Lie never took the initiative to express his love for her, but this instinctive reaction has shown that his love for himself comes from the heart, Ye Qinghong hugged Luo Lie tightly as if he was afraid that he would leave him as soon as he let go.

Luo Lie gently patted her back in the dark and whispered, "It's okay, don't be afraid!"

Ye Qinghong still refused to let go and held Luo Lie persistently, Luo Lie's hand was raised slightly, but a pale face appeared in his mind, and he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his heart, and another explosion thunder sounded, and Ye Qinghong's delicate body trembled involuntarily in Luo Lie's arms.

Luo Lie felt that the sound of the waves crashing on the shore outside was getting louder and louder, he and Ye Qinghong came to the entrance of the cave again, and looked up, at this time, the sea water had risen a lot, Luo Lie realized a serious problem, which he didn't expect at first, the opening of the cave was located in the middle of Minglu Island, Luo Lie thought that it was impossible for the sea water to overflow the hole, and what they saw in the cave just now did not show any traces of tide soaking, but not in the past does not mean that there is no now.

Once the sea level overflows the mouth of the cave, a backflow of sea water occurs, and if they persist in the cave, they will be swallowed by the sea.

Ye Qinghong was also aware of this serious problem, and she exclaimed, "You must leave this cave." "Although it is only a possibility, they can't just wait, once the tide rises too fast, I am afraid it will be too late to retreat.

The two turned back to inform the others, and the group left the cave after packing up, and when they reached the entrance of the cave, they found that the tide had risen less than two meters below the entrance. Among the five of them, Hai Mingzhu had the most experience at sea, but Hai Mingzhu had never seen such a strange scene, judging from the speed of the tide rising in front of him, this was an unprecedented storm.

The five of them braved the wind and rain to the top of the island, and for now it was safest to go to the highest point, the wind was getting stronger, and they had to connect each other with ropes to prevent someone from being blown into the sea by the strong wind, and everyone tried to keep their bodies down as much as possible to reduce the wind resistance.

The blind man walked in the forefront, in fact, his night eyes did not play much role in such bad weather conditions, and the raindrops the size of soybeans flew towards him, crackling and hitting his face, hot and painful, and the blind man shouted: "There is a forest in front, let's go into the forest to avoid it?"

Zhang Longbow yelled, "No, there will be a danger of being struck by lightning in the forest." This is just the basic common sense that everyone knows, and the blind man was also dizzy for a while, and they finally came to the top of the island, found a stone recess, and everyone squeezed into it.

The blind man wiped the rain from his face, looked up, and saw a wall of waves several stories high on the sea in front of him overwhelmingly slapping towards the island, and the crest of the waves was almost level with where they were, and exclaimed, "Wow! This wave is too big, Minglu Island should not be drowned by the waves, right?"

In fact, everyone thought of this possibility in their hearts, and Hai Mingzhu shook his head and said, "It's impossible, I've never heard that Naruka Island will be flooded by the sea." ”

Zhang Longbow looked left and right at the vague shadows of the trees and said, "Probably not, if the high tide floods the island, it is impossible for these trees to grow so densely." ”

The blind man said: "There are no absolutes in the world, there was no past, who knows if it will be today?" As soon as he finished speaking, a purple lightning bolt in the sky tore through the night and struck the woods on their right, and for a while the lightning flashed, and the entire Naruka Island was as bright as day, and after the lightning was followed by earth-shattering thunder.

The whole island was shaken and trembled, and the tree that was struck by lightning burned, and Naruka Island was rich in vegetation, but it was of a single species, mostly pines and cypresses, and the pines and cypresses were oily, and after they were ignited, the fire spread instantly.
