We huddled together for warmth, and although the firelight was faint, it gave us a glimmer of hope.

Yang Rui was busy and seemed very proactive.

Wang Ping watched coldly, then looked at me and smacked his lips: "This Yang Rui is really interesting. He's become friends with those foreigners so quickly. He's quite a talent."

Watching Yang Rui bustling around, I shook my head at Wang Ping: "Forget it, maybe he's just a kind-hearted person. If he hadn't gone out to gather firewood, we'd still be freezing. You should hurry up and dry your clothes so you don't get sick. Don't worry about the rest for now."

Wang Ping nodded, and the clothes we had hung next to the campfire were quickly dried by the intense heat of the fire.

After everyone put on their clothes, they felt warmer, but their stomachs started to grow hungry.

But we were in such a rush when we ran that we didn't have time to bring any food, so we just have to endure our hunger now.

We stayed in the cave all night, until it was already broad daylight, before we finally poked our heads out to look at the scene outside.

But the heavy rain that lasted all night hasn't stopped yet, and the area around the tree roots outside is already flooded with water.

Wang Ping looked at the still-cloudy sky outside and frowned.

"I'm just not sure if Chen Jian will be able to make proper arrangements for these female colleagues. I'm really not at ease. Sihai, maybe I should go back for a bit."

I looked at Wang Ping and refused outright: "No, the situation outside is still unclear. If you encounter any danger on the way back, you won't even have anyone to help you. Besides, it's still raining heavily, and you'll be soaked to the bone. What if you can't find him when you get back to camp? Let's stay together for now!"

And then a foreigner came out of our cave, stood at the narrow entrance and looked outside, then muttered something under his breath.

I looked at Wang Ping and then at the person sitting behind me roasting shoes.

She leaned closer and whispered, "He was saying he was so hungry and really wanted to eat something. I think we should eat something too. We haven't had anything to eat or drink since yesterday afternoon. Nobody can endure that."

Wang Ping frowned even more deeply after hearing what ** said: "But in the current situation, how can we go out to find something to eat? We don't even have a place to shelter from the rain. If the rain gets any heavier, we might not even be able to come back."

As Wang Ping said this, his stomach began to rumble, indicating that he was hungry.

I patted Wang Ping on the shoulder: "You guys stay here, **, you come with me, let's go out and find something to eat."

When Wang Ping heard me say that, he immediately tried to stop me, but Yang Rui, who was drying firewood behind me, nodded enthusiastically after hearing it.

"I'll go with you. There's strength in numbers, and I can't just rely on the food you bring to fill my stomach, so I should help out."

After Yang Rui said that, I felt that if he really wanted to go out, then there was nothing wrong with him coming along.

In short, Wang Ping's leg was still hurting badly last night, so I didn't want to bother him anymore.

Yang Rui was also quick-witted, so it was good for him to go out with her to find some food.

I looked at Wang Ping and then at the remaining male colleagues: "You guys stay here and don't get into any trouble with these foreigners. They were so flustered when they ran away yesterday, but none of them dropped their guns. In such a narrow cave, if we get into a fight, we might not be able to win. Let's talk about it after we get back and have a good meal."

Wang Ping nodded, but his face was full of worry.

"Zhao Sihai, you'd better be careful, they're all waiting for us to go back."

After we got our weapons, we climbed out of the narrow cave. It was still raining outside.

Outside, dark clouds covered the sky, making it look like the sun had set, and the air was thick with the smell of rain.

** and I walked ahead, while Yang Rui followed behind. We walked quite a distance but didn't even get out of the woods.

Yang Rui frowned when he saw us: "I think since it rained here, mushrooms should grow. If we can pick some mushrooms to take back, we can make something to eat, or at least roast them."

He shook his head after hearing this: "Roasted mushrooms are fine, but we need to drink some water. It's so cold in the cave. It would be even better if we could have some soup. It's just that we can't make a clay pot right now. Otherwise, we could make two clay pots to use, that would be a good idea."

"I think we should go to the beach first. With such heavy rain yesterday, even if there wasn't a tsunami, there must have been a lot of shells and fish washed ashore. We can catch some, take them back, grill them, and eat them. Let's hold on for now."

Of course, he would follow my lead, and Yang Rui didn't say anything at this moment.

So we continued walking quickly, and after a long time, we finally emerged from the woods and arrived at the nearest beach.

Just as I had imagined, the beach was covered with a lot of things, mostly seaweed and kelp.

The sea was still pitch black, with huge waves constantly crashing in, looking quite frightening.

"I think those foreigners' boats are probably doomed. With this heavy rain and such rough waves, they've probably already broken apart."

**Standing behind me with a furrowed brow, muttering to himself, I also felt that he was right. After all, with such rough seas, their boat might not be able to hold out for two nights.

Yang Rui also said that it seems that even if a tsunami doesn't happen today, it's probably not far off.

Therefore, we must bring back as many things as possible this time.

We immediately started picking up seashells and fish on the beach. Fortunately, this time it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, because there were many, many things in the crevices of the rocks on the beach.

We didn't care about being soaked by the rain; we took off our clothes and pants and frantically stuffed food into the container.

After we had packed all the clothes and pants, just as we were about to leave, a huge bolt of lightning suddenly appeared on the sea, instantly piercing the darkness and striking straight into the sea.

Immediately afterwards, a huge wave crashed onto the shore.

Terrified, he grabbed his clothes and pants and staggered towards the woods.

Yang Rui's expression changed at this moment, and he shouted at me, "Brother Sihai, run! This is a damn sign!"

I have never seen a tsunami, I have only heard of them before, so I don't know much about them.

But when he saw the surging waves that looked like a monster opening its gaping maw, he was startled and quickly grabbed what he was holding, running desperately after ** into the woods.

As soon as we entered the woods, the waves crashed onto the shore, even pushing seawater to the edge of the trees.

Yang Rui's face changed, and he became extremely frightened, completely losing his previous composure.

Now I finally understand why it was described as a deadly natural disaster, because this was absolutely devastating!
