[House must fall series √]
…
Lu Liran turned to Ke Ji, the corners of his lips pursed into a straight line.
“That Liu San might not let us go easily.” He said in a deep voice.
Ke Ji nodded slightly, his eyes were cold and morose, looking at the dark clouds stacked in the distance: “Thunderclouds are coming, and this group of people is likely to take advantage of the chaos to make trouble.”
“This group of people are all desperadoes. Even if the live broadcast is on, for them, as long as the problem of the fishing boat is discovered, the restriction of being exposed by the live broadcast room is nothing.” Lu Liran frowned.
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright white lightning flashed across the sky, shaking him subconsciously to close his eyes, and immediately he heard an explosion that sounded like it was close to his ears.
In the next second, bean-sized raindrops fell, splashing small pits on the beach, and the ground got wet in the blink of an eye.
Lu Liran and Ke Ji went back to the hut to shelter from the rain in embarrassment, but they didn’t forget to take away the grilled fish.
Ke Ji’s communicator sounded at the same time. He turned on the communicator and saw the faces of Qi Feng and Qi Bai appearing on the other end of the video. The signal was extremely poor, and the picture flickered and distorted from time to time. The human voice that came out was also intermittent——
“Your Excellency! One of the airships sent out was hit by lightning, and the two sea speedboats have also lost contact. Now the sea waves are almost five meters high, and I am afraid they are also trapped in the sea.” Qi Bai said hastily.
Qi Feng said seriously: “The strong lightning cloud cluster will move to the southern part of the Barents Sea in half an hour, which is near your latitude and longitude. The weather forecast shows that the intensity of the strongest thunder and lightning can exceed 30 within a minute, and it will be very dangerous to be outdoors.”
Lu Liran’s face became a bit ugly as he sniffed, the situation where even the Marine Police had no way of responding to the accident had become very daunting indeed.
The sound of the rain outside and the lapping of the waves became louder and louder, almost drowning out the voices of Qi Feng and his brother.
Ke Ji gently pressed Lu Liran’s shoulder in a comforting manner, and said to the communicator: “I see. Continue to follow up on that ship’s previous course and the network behind it, I need to know whether the devil vines and them were just a random coincidence or they got together secretly.”
“Receive!”
Ke Ji hung up the communication.
“You should have called Qi Feng and the others to leave when you found something was wrong with the fishing boat.” Lu Liran said in a low voice, he was sure that Qi Feng and Qi Bai’s efficiency must be much higher than that of Desolate Star Marine Police.
But Ke Ji didn’t do that, but stayed on the sidelines, in order to wait with him for the Marine Police to come and settle the troubles behind.
Now, the heavy thunderclouds are thickening above their heads. The pure power from nature makes people feel awe-inspiring and powerless at the same time.
Lu Liran took a deep breath, and looked at Ke Ji: “Now you and I are trapped here, and there are four poachers watching.”
Ke Ji smiled slightly, he could hear the apology implied in Lu Liran’s words, and maybe there was a trace of uneasiness that even Lu Liran didn’t notice.
He shook his head and said: “If I had left at that time, then you would be the only one left on this deserted island with four other poachers who were eyeing you.”
Lu Liran looked up at Ke Ji, but he didn’t understand the meaning of the other party repeating such an obvious result.
Ke Ji raised the corners of his mouth, then he relaxed his tone with a bit of sarcasm: “In comparison, at least when the two of us are together, it’s more like a honeymoon on a deserted island than being trapped.”
Lu Liran choked, he didn’t expect Ke Ji to be joking at this moment.
“Sure enough, I shouldn’t expect a man with a love brain to say anything constructive.” He sneered, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
He had to admit that because of Ke Ji’s joke, he relaxed a little.
[Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh, I heard something!! This is the official announcement of Beauty!!]
[No, it’s the Beauty unilaterally declaring ownership]
[Obviously Brother Lu hasn’t agreed yet, hahahaha]

[Haloha, do you still remember that the current focus is on the strong thundercloud and the four poacher]

“The shelter that has already been built is a ready-made low tunnel, and I don’t need to find any additional places to avoid lightning!” Lu Liran said loudly against the sound of rain.
“As long as this shelter can last for one more minute, our danger is reduced by one.”
He got out of the shed and said loudly: “Before the thundercloud comes over, I must strengthen the shed!”
Ke Ji followed closely, and said: “Together.”
Lu Liran nodded slightly, he opened the fishing net that he picked up on the reef in the garbage dump before, then he spread it tightly on the slope top of shed, and then sharpened four wooden stakes to nail it to the beach.
Ke Ji also brought a bunch of wooden sticks of different lengths, and arranged them into a triangular shape for support, then propped them on each vertical frame of the shed, and tied them to death with coconut bark as a rope.
The structure of the shed, which is originally a solid triangular base, is fixed with a tripod on the foot of each stand, and firmly nailed into the wet and sticky sand wet by rain.
The dry beach sand was still a little soft, while the beach wetted by the heavy precipitation was as wet and tight as mud, which reinforced the stability of the triangular nail pile.
Lu Liran and Ke Ji hurriedly strengthened the shelter against the heavy rain.
“Boss, they’re still working on that broken shed.” Big Eye Xu looked out through the gap in the tent. The rainwater poured into the tent from the gap, and soon the area near the door was soaked.
Liu San’s eyes were heavy, and when he heard his words, he said: “Apart from the shed, did those two people do anything else?”
“Nothing.” Big Eye Xu said, “Do you think we should take advantage of the strong rain and strong waves to knock those two people out, and then throw them directly into the sea?”
Liu San sneered, seeing that Big Eye Xu was deeply afraid of taking someone’s life by hand, he glanced at him contemptuously: “Stunned them and threw them into the sea, wouldn’t there be endless trouble if they survived?”
Big Eye Xu choked, and he murmured in his heart, in such a big wave, even if a person is awake, it’s not easy to survive, let alone a guy who was knocked out?
He looked at Liu San, and met Liu San’s narrow and dark eyes, couldn’t help trembling, and closed his mouth.
“Don’t do it yet, just wait and see what happens.” Liu San said, “Maybe God will help and we don’t need to do it.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at the two people, Xiang Zou and Xiang You, who were sitting in the corner without saying a word, and asked: “Xiang You, what does the latest date from the Weather Bureau say?”
“It has been upgraded to a red warning for strong lightning.” Said by Xiang You. He glanced at the latest news from Uncle Hai, and paused, “Maybe it will break the record set two years ago.”
Big Eye Xu’s eyes widened upon hearing his words: “A record from two years ago?! That’s seventeen flashes in one minute!”
“Double this time.” Xiang You said.
Big Eye Xu shuddered, the strong lighting attack that night two years ago was already terrifying. At that time, they were still at sea, and the sea area several kilometers around was illuminated by lightning, and they could see that there were no creatures swimming five or six meters below the sea level.
At that time, he was just a small handyman on the fishing boat, and Liu San was not the captain yet.
Xiang Zuo sniffed and glanced at his brother, and he lowered his eyebrows.
Liu San narrowed his eyes slightly: “Double? Very good.”
He then turned to Xiang Zou: “Is the lighting shield activated?”
“Open.” Xiang Zuo replied concisely.
“Okay.” Liu San curled his lips, “Then let’s see if those two men can survive tonight with just a small slanted shed.”
…
Thunderclouds have moved over the nearby sea.
Both the lightning and the rain became more violent.
Lu Liran found a pile of garbage such as plastic foam and rubber from the pile of garbage that he had picked up before, and he put all these insulating things in the shed.
Ke Ji used wooden sticks to plan a small canal about ten centimeters deep around it to prevent the accumulated water from overflowing.
“It’s almost ready!” Lu Liran shouted.
The two crawled back into the shelter, wet.
The shed itself was covered with dry balls of pine needles. Although it was a little wet from the heavy rain that drifted in, it was still drier than the two of them at the moment.
Lu Liran grabbed a few balls, distributed them to Ke Ji, and hurriedly wiped off the rainwater on his body, trying to dry himself as much as possible and maintain his body temperature.
The frequency of lightning outside was significantly higher, and a bright flash could be seen outside the shelter every two or three minutes.
Lu Liran glanced at the live broadcast room, and saw that the sea surface captured by the drone was almost a strange dark blue-purple color. At three or four o’clock in the afternoon, the sky turned a dull dark orange, which was purple against the backdrop of the continuous purple lightning flashing across the sky.
“My God…” Lu Liran whispered softly, this was the first time he saw such an unusual sea and sky.
Ke Ji looked at Lu Liran, and he suddenly spoke in a low and steady voice: “When I was on a mission, I encountered a thunderstorm.”
Hearing this, Lu Liran subconsciously turned to look at him.
“The one-kilometer-long deep canyon splits lightning, and when a thick and long lightning hits the ground, it suddenly forks into countless thin and short lightning, as if climbing the entire canyon in an instant.”
Ke Ji continued: “That was the first time I felt the power of lightning so close. Even though I was still far away from that area, the trembling feeling still seemed like it just happened yesterday.”
Lu Liran let out a breath: “Just listening to what you said, I can already imagine that scene.”
Ke Ji smiled, seeing that Lu Liran was not as tense as before, he said: “I still remember that lightning struck so close that my scalp felt numb. Later, after the lightning passed, my deputy told me that my hair stood on end, as if it had been blown by static electricity.”
Lu Liran let out a muffled laugh, and an image instantly appeared in his mind.
[SOS, the wall cracked, request for the drone to go back to the shed!!]
[I’ve seen enough lightning, really, let me go and see Ke Meiren and Brother Lu, I think they are flirting]
[+1]
[I suspect that the Beauty is taking this opportunity to frantically brush up his favorability points]
[I don’t understand, shouldn’t Omega hide in Alpha’s arms at this time and say that I’m so scared?]
[? If this is the case, Brother Lu may run away in the rain]
[That’s not necessarily true, I think Brother Lu will directly kick out such an Omega]
4:23 in the afternoon.
The red warning of strong thunder and lightning was issued again.
The thunder outside the hut began to explode, and the lightning illuminated the dark sky covered by dark clouds like daytime.
The dark clouds in the sky were secretly surging, as if something was brewing.
Lu Liran obviously felt that the rain was getting stronger, hitting the roof of the shed. Fortunately, they spread thick coconut leaves to keep out the rain, and used fishing nets to cover the entire roof. So far, there has been no rain leakage yet.
The wind is not too strong, at least compared to the wind force of the tropical cyclone two days ago, Lu Liran’s small shelter is quite secure this time.
The pouring rain outside and the continuous lightning and thunder seemed to compress the living space of human beings into a small blank space, Lu Liran unconsciously squeezed into the shed, and got close to Ke Ji.
The raindrops fell like hail, and Lu Liran could even see the roof of his shed trembling, as if it was about to fall down at any time.
The lightning outside struck into the jungle, and the rumble of another big tree falling shook Lu Liran’s heart.
“I don’t want to hide in the crevices of the mountains in the forest at this time…” Lu Liran whispered, praying that the shed could last longer.
Lu Liran rubbed his hands and feet to prevent the cold rain from quickly taking away his body temperature.
Ke Ji quietly blocked the outside of the shed, and almost all the rainwater blown in by the wind was blocked by him, so much so that the shed was mostly dry, and the temperature of Lu Liran’s hands and feet even rose a little.
Just when Lu Liran felt that everything seemed to be barely enough, a small piece of coconut tree leaf above his head was pressed down by the accumulated rain, and a cloud of full rainwater suddenly fell into the small shed.
“Damn, it’s leaking!” Lu Liran cursed in a low voice, and hurriedly found something to supplement it.
However, it was like a domino. When one part collapsed, other parts also collapsed one after another. Lu Liran’s speed of making up for it gradually couldn’t keep up with the increase of rain leaks on the roof.
Lu Liran was terrified when he heard the “creaking” moan from the ceiling from time to time.
“It’s not working, it’s not going to last.” Ke Ji said in a deep voice.
Lu Liran pursed his lips and did not answer, but just stared at the ceiling unwillingly.
It wasn’t until several pillars started to shake that Lu Liran was reluctantly dragged out of the shed by Ke Ji.
The two had just run out of the shelter a few steps, when there was a muffled sound behind them, Lu Liran turned his head to look over, and saw that the shed, which had been reinforced with great difficulty, fell down.
Lu Liran：“……”
[Hiss, no shed built by Brother Lu is left untouched]
[House must fall series√]
[Two drowned chickens were cute and adorably stupid]
[It’s okay, it’s okay, it feels like lightning and thunder are not as frequent as before]
“The dark clouds have dispersed.” Ke Ji said at the same time.
Lu Liran heard his words and looked over, only to notice that the sky in the distance had cleared up, and the sun shot down a few clusters of light golden sword light, piercing the dark clouds, which had a kind of shocking beauty.
The rain in the sky has also gradually decreased, falling on their body like numerous hair fluttering. It’s just that the rain is still dense, like water mist scattered in the air.
Lu Liran looked at Liu San through the rain and fog.
The man stepped out of the tent, his face expressionless as he tilted his head slightly to look at the sky.
As if aware of Lu Liran’s gaze, he turned his head to look over, and grinned slightly at Lu Liran.
“God help us.” He raised his voice, “It seems to have escaped, and the sun cleared it up.”
Sunnyshies: I went to NU and saw that there were a lot of new tl-ed bl novels nowadays. I already read some of them before, and just finished one that I haven’t read yet. Some of the novels are good and cute, so I’ll recommend these!
