The water that Zhou Jiuzhen was carrying on his shoulder slipped and fell to the ground.
He originally planned to fetch water for this "educated youth from Lin" before going back.
Upon hearing the broadcast, he ignored everything and ran towards the beach...
When the first huge wave hit.
A dead fish was also slapped onto her face.
Ling Huanwu trembled and quickly wiped her face, afraid of having another allergic reaction.
Just as she was about to open the space to hide inside for a while, a large hand suddenly pulled her into the sea.
As Ling Huanwu screamed in alarm, the rock she had just been sitting on was nowhere to be seen. A wave tens of meters high crashed down, carrying countless dead fish with their bellies up, slamming into the spot where she had just been sitting with a deafening crashing sound.
It's hard to imagine that if she hadn't had time to enter the space or hadn't been pulled away, she would probably have been swept away by that overwhelming wave to some unknown depths of the sea.
Before she could even turn around to see who was behind her, she only knew that a pair of strong, powerful hands were tightly gripping her. The world spun around her, and the deafening sound of waves crashing against her ears gradually faded away. She lost consciousness completely...
Repulse Bay.
Qin Jinshen was floundering in the seawater, watching helplessly as Zhou Jiuzhen rescued Ling Huanwu first. The two of them were swept away by the seawater, and he could no longer hold back and cursed at the sea.
"Damn it! Zhou Jiuzhen, you bastard, you country bumpkin, I'll scatter your ashes sooner or later, and then have someone perform a ritual to dissipate your soul..."
This man, who had received an elite education since childhood and never swore, finally lost his temper and cursed.
He had just returned to the educated youth settlement and was the first to discover Ling Huanwu trapped on the reef.
He was also a swimming champion back then.
So when he plunged into the sea, all he could think about was how to hold Ling Huanwu and let the sea carry them away.
He had already planned it out in his mind: given the direction of the whirlpool's flow, they would definitely be taken to some uninhabited island nearby.
This is the perfect opportunity for the two of them to nurture their relationship.
If he gets injured again, and the two of them have physical contact, and he holds her hand tightly, things could easily escalate into a passionate encounter.
But just now, Zhou Jiuzhen swam so fast that his arms seemed to be propellers, and when he passed by him, his long legs kicked him directly in the stomach, sending him flying back several meters.
Guard Ma arrived late and quickly covered Qin Jinshen's mouth from behind. He looked at Zhou Shuyao, who was staring blankly at Qin Jinshen at a short distance away, and chuckled as he explained, "My nephew has a temper; he doesn't usually swear!"
After saying that, he pulled Qin Jinshen, whose mask was almost rotting from being soaked in water, onto the table. If he had been two seconds later, his identity would probably have been exposed.
Not far away, Zhou Shuyao floated on the water, staring intently at Qin Jinshen's departing figure. He felt that the man looked strangely familiar, and the phrase "scattering ashes" that the man had just mentioned was so familiar that he was sick of hearing it.
Zhou Shuyao turned his head again to look at the empty sea, and for a moment he was so angry that he had a heart attack. He cursed in the direction where his older brother and wife disappeared for a full half hour without repeating himself before he stopped.

"Tick-tock, tick-tock!"
Ling Huanwu was awakened by the continuous sound of raindrops.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a familiar, enveloping sensation that made her unable to move.
She touched the muscular arms of the man pressing down on her and immediately recognized him as Zhou Jiuzhen.
At that moment, he was holding her tightly, shielding her beneath him without moving, his hands gripping her shoulders firmly.
"Nine shocks..."
She pushed him, but couldn't move him; instead, she touched her hands and found them covered in blood.
Ling Huanwu's pupils dilated, and she used all her strength to crawl out from under his arm.
She quickly checked his injuries.
A large, palm-sized wound was found on his buttock.
Ling Huanwu quickly pulled down his pants to check.
The wound was deep, and blood was gushing out.
Ling Huanwu looked around at her surroundings.
Above us was a towering, dense jungle that only revealed glimpses of the blue and white sky.
Not far away is the beach where the rolling waves crash against the shore.
It seems that the waves carried the two to this unnamed island jungle.
Seeing a wave tens of meters high rolling towards them, Ling Huanwu quickly activated her spatial ability and dragged Zhou Jiuzhen inside.
The air is filled with the misty vapor of the spring.
Ling Huanwu scooped up a few spoonfuls of spiritual spring water to help Zhou Jiuzhen clean the wound on his buttocks.
I also applied an anti-inflammatory ointment to it.
Since there were no cotton swabs, she could only apply a little ointment to his wound.
He had barely wiped her twice when the person beneath him stirred.
She turned her head and met Zhou Jiuzhen's astonished gaze.
"Comrade Lin, what's going on here..."
Before Zhou Jiuzhen could finish speaking, his eyes met her hand pressing on his buttocks, and his face suddenly turned red.
Why are you taking off my pants? You'll have to take responsibility for this!
He spoke in an unusually soft voice, keeping his head down and avoiding looking at her.
Ling Huanwu was speechless for a moment, then poked hard at the wound on his buttocks. "I'm applying medicine to you. Doesn't it hurt? If applying medicine to you is something I have to take responsibility for, then there would be a whole bunch of doctors, nurses, husbands, and wives!"
To everyone's surprise, just from her casual remark, the ears of these burly men below turned completely red.
"No girl has ever applied medicine to me before."
"Are you just showing concern by applying medicine to my butt? Actually, my butt doesn't hurt. You don't need to thank me for saving you; it's what we soldiers should do!"
"But could you tell me your name? I'm not trying to pry, I just want to know what the person I saved is called, don't get me wrong..."
The man beneath her kept talking, and Ling Huanwu's ears were ringing.
She couldn't help but miss the quiet and capable Zhou Jiuzhen.
Zhou Jiuzhen, who's constantly nagging right now, could talk her to death.
After applying the medicine, she tossed him a loose-fitting skirt she was wearing, saying, "Your butt is injured, so wear a skirt for now."
Zhou Jiuzhen stood up shyly with the skirt in her hand, awkwardly trying to put it on for a long time. She looked like the sturdy Persian cat she used to have, wiggling its butt and secretly watching other people's little female cats pass by from a corner, all talk and no action.
Ling Huanwu turned around, rubbing her forehead, utterly exhausted.
He still thought he was a virgin.
She knew he was a man she had seen all over.
After a long while, Zhou Jiuzhen finally finished putting on the dress and said in a low voice that she was ready.
Ling Huanwu turned around.
Upon seeing the scene before her, she felt as if she wanted to gouge out her own eyes.
Ling Huanwu's long skirt, which originally reached her calves, barely covered his knees when she wore it, revealing his muscular and firm calves.
With his upper body bare of arms, he looked like a primitive man wearing an ill-fitting grass skirt, which was as awkward and comical as it appeared.
Ling Huanwu stared straight at him, then couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Miss Zhou, why are you looking so gloomy? Give me a smile!"
