Chapter 252: Hiding from the Natural Disaster in the Cave
The tip of my nose was filled with the minty scent of Jiang Xian.
I could still hear his soft voice in my ears, "Aluan, I'm here, don't be afraid."
Gu Luan raised her head with a smile, "I'm not afraid."
This person always treats her like a child. She is not afraid, she is just annoyed.
Whenever something like this happens, she feels uncomfortable and irritated.
"Aluan, you're not afraid. I'm afraid. Can you hold me tighter?"
Jiang Xian smiled softly and held Gu Luan tightly in his arms.
Gu Luan opened her arms and wrapped them around Jiang Xian's waist.
The seven women were sitting diagonally opposite Jiang Xian and the other man. They saw this scene and were filled with envy.
The pretty woman looked dazed, as if she had thought of something, and shed tears silently.
She also has a boyfriend who she is considering marrying. They have a good relationship and have been spending the last days together.
But fate played a trick on her. Her boyfriend was killed for her, and she fell into the hands of Yu Dongran and his men in an accident.
Seeing the warm relationship between Gu Luan and Jiang Xian, she thought of her boyfriend who loved her, and couldn't help feeling sad.
“It’s so windy.”
Huang Xi panicked a little and raised his hand to block the strong wind blowing towards him.
The place where she and her husband are is a windy location.
The wind blew, bringing with it rain that slanted in, quickly soaking the place where they were standing.
"Auntie Huang, come over here."
Tang You waved his hand and made room for Huang Xi and his wife.
The couple had just sat down when they were almost scared to death by a few deafening thunderclaps.
“It’s so scary!”
Huang Xi patted his chest with lingering fear.
"We have finally settled down, will this natural disaster destroy it again?"
Huang Xi was a little worried and rubbed his arms which were cold from the storm.
"Don't talk nonsense, we will continue like this."
Chen Liang frowned. Although he was also afraid, he still comforted his wife.
Everyone looked outside.
There were lightning and thunder, strong winds and heavy rain, the sky seemed to be in chaos, and nature was roaring with its anger.
The whole island was suffering from the storm and thunder.
Countless trees were broken and lightning kept falling, brutally striking every corner of the island.
They were thankful that they reached the cave in time, otherwise they would have been the ones to bear the ravages of the storm.
Everyone inevitably thought of Shen Jiaojiao, who died in a storm and was struck by lightning.
They want to live and live well.
"Brother, it's so cold!"
Tang You rubbed her arms. This was the first time she felt cold since the extreme heat.
Tang Qian also felt a little cold. The wind and rain outside were too strong. Even though this cave was at the innermost part, the storm would still blow in.
"I'll go get some firewood."
"Brother, you're not going out, are you?"
Tang You grabbed Tang Qian's hand and stopped him in panic.
Tang Qian smiled and said, "I'm not that stupid. I saw some dry firewood in the cave. I'll go pick some up and start a fire."
"I'll come too."
Liang Xu stood up and went to collect firewood.
When Chen Liang and his companions saw this, they decided to go to work together.
"Can we help pick them up and warm ourselves by the fire?"
The pretty woman plucked up her courage and asked in a low voice.
Tang You nodded, "Okay."
She didn't hate these poor women, so she thought she could help them as much as she could.
It didn't bother them at all to sit together by the fire, and they were helping out anyway.
After getting their consent, the seven women happily stood up and ran to collect firewood.
It is unknown how many years this cave has existed. There are many dry branches in the cave, which may have been blown in by the wind.
The branches were not big, so everyone picked them up one by one, and were glad that no one threw them outside out of disgust.
Jiang Xian joined the team collecting firewood.
Gu Luan didn't pick it up, she came to the monkey group.
Hold a bag in your hand and pretend to take fruit out of the bag.
The fruit she took was picked on the island and would not arouse anyone's suspicion.
Having been on the island for so long, she has stockpiled a lot of supplies from the island in her space.
It can be said that in the half year since she came here, she has not consumed any space supplies, but has instead gained a lot.
There are not only fruits from the island, but also bamboo shoots, seafood, cactus fruit, bamboo rats...
Anyway, whenever she had nothing to do, she would go chop, dig and pick anything edible on the island with Jiang Xian.
The Monkey King and his group of monkeys surrounded Gu Luan.
"This time, thanks to you."
Gu Luan is a person who will repay a favor.
Although she and Jiang Xian noticed that something was wrong with the weather.
Without these monkeys, it would be difficult to find a safe cave to take shelter.
I don’t know if they understood what Gu Luan said, but a few monkeys squeaked in response.
Gu Luan chuckled and took out the fruits and handed them to the monkey one by one.
The first one to receive the fruit was the Monkey King. After the Monkey King received the fruit, the other monkeys also received the fruit.
None of the monkeys fought for the food, and each monkey waited until their companions had taken it before taking it.
Gu Luan likes getting along with this group of monkeys very much because he doesn't have to worry about anything and feels relaxed and comfortable.
"Sister Gu, the fire is lit, come over and warm yourself by the fire."
Tang You's clear voice rang out.
After feeding the monkey, Gu Luan turned around and said, "Here it comes."
More than a dozen people gathered around the fire, reaching out their hands to get closer to it.
“It’s so cold!”
Tang You sighed, "I actually felt cold in such hot weather."
Liang Xu looked at Tang You's profile and asked, "Do you want to put on another piece of clothing?"
Tang Youdian nodded and took out another piece of clothing and put it on.
This group of people only had one set of clothes to change into, which they exchanged from Gu Luan. It was so precious.
The others followed suit and put on their clothes.
Although Gu Luan and Jiang Xian were not cold, they still put on a thin coat.
The seven women had no extra clothes and could only huddle together to keep warm.
“Eat sweet potatoes?”
Jiang Xian asked Gu Luan softly.
"Eat, roast some."
Gu Luan nodded.
When there are outsiders around, they definitely cannot eat delicious food and can only eat some plain food such as sweet potatoes.
Jiang Xian threw the sweet potatoes into the fire.
When Tang You and the others saw this, they also took out their own sweet potatoes and threw them into the fire.
It is not possible to roast the sweet potatoes over an open fire, and there is no extra firewood to bury the sweet potatoes, so they can only watch the sweet potatoes in the fire.
The seven women did not dare to watch this scene and huddled in a corner.
They also had some mushrooms and wild vegetables in their hands.
Mushrooms can be grilled and wild vegetables can be eaten raw.
There weren't many wild vegetables, so everyone shared some and ate them directly.
Tang You felt depressed and uncomfortable when he saw this.
"Brother, should we help them?"
Tang You knew that such sympathy was not acceptable and wanted to ask his brother for his opinion.
She thought these women were pretty good, so she felt sympathy for them.
Tang Qian shook his head. "Not yet. Let's wait until they finish their food."
He knew that his sister was kind, and since they still had some food, it was normal for her to feel sympathy for these women.
He was very happy that his sister remained kind, but he didn't want her to help others casually.
"I understand, brother."
Tang You understood what Tang Qian meant and nodded vigorously.
The sweet potato fragrance soon spread throughout the cave, and the heavy rain and thunder outside seemed to no longer affect anyone.
Jiang Xian took out the sweet potato he had roasted, blew on it before handing it to Gu Luan.
Gu Luan took it, peeled off the skin, and ate it slowly bite by bite.
The sweet potatoes you grow yourself taste different.
In such a storm, I wonder if the sweet potatoes she just planted can survive.
