Chapter 52: cave

The sound of rumbling, resounding through the heavens and the earth, the ruthless and endless power of the heavens and the earth, seemed to reveal some clues at this time. Facing such a terrifying power, mortals are like ants, pitiful and helpless in the rolling waves.
The big trees and rocks were dumped and rolled, struggling and overturning in the torrent of sea water, and the huge waves in the small bay were soaring, like a huge monster beast coming here, about to tear everything apart.
Shen Shi desperately ran toward the cave, the rumbling and terrible sound of water was already behind him, and even under his feet, there were already water stains everywhere.
In the wind and rain, the gasp sound seemed to be drowned. Who would be distracted to think back to the past at the moment of life and death? The huge waves roared, and maybe you would die here after a slow step.
Near, near, near...
Whether it's the cave in front or the terrifying waves behind you.
The waves are rolling, the water vapor seems to be rolling in the ears, the clothes are so wet, it seems that the big waves will be swept away in the next moment, and the black cave is also within easy reach. Shen Shi yelled abruptly, exhausted all his strength, leaped forward, even screamed with Zhong Qingzhu, and rolled towards the cave. At the moment when it was dangerous and dangerous, he barely got into the cave. Among.
The rock wall was hard and dark. When they fell on the hard rock in the cave, they heard a huge and incomparable impact behind them. It was a huge wave hitting the mountain wall. At that moment, it seemed like a whole The cliffs and walls of the mountain were shaking and shaking.
All creatures, under the impact of this terrible force, may turn into dust.
However, before the two of them came back to their senses, Shen Shi heard Zhong Qingzhu scream beside him:
"Water! Water, water is coming in..."
Shen Shi turned his head back suddenly, but the darkness in front of him was suddenly dark. Then, among the electric light and flint, he felt a huge wave rushing toward his face. His body lightened for an instant, and then he completely lost control, and was carried to the cave by the powerful current. Rushed in deep.
In the chaos, he turned around like the sky, and his body kept tumbling. In the darkness, he still grasped the soft palm of his own. At some point, the girl turned his back, like a straw, holding him tightly and refused to let go.
It's just that the water flow was so rapid that it was compressed by the narrow rock wall after rushing into the cave, and the force was even more amazing. The two people could not control their bodies at all, and they were taken out by the violent water flow for an unknown distance. But this humble small cave was actually very deep, and the water flowed straight into it, but it didn’t even reach the bottom for a while, and the two of them were entrained in the darkness by the water and hit the surrounding hard rock wall for an unknown number of times. I wonder if the bones are broken.
There are only two palms, grasped very tightly, life and death, in the cold water, it seems that only the other side is the only warm and pitiful support, but under this terrible force like the sky and the earth, people are like ants and duckweed. , Finally, before finally fainting, he separated his palms and lost the trace of the other party.
With a muffled "bang", after being hit a hard rock wall once again, he was already in despair, including the sinking stone in the water, which had difficulty breathing. He finally passed out and became unconscious.

Herring concentrated in Xuanritang.
At this time, the entire Herring Island was submerged by violent storms and rain. The dark clouds were drooping and the thunder was rumbled. The calm sea seemed to be venting the anger that had accumulated for a long time. The sky and the earth are all dyed into a gray color.
The tall and burly Wang Gen stood in the study room, staring at the misty stormy world outside the window. He hadn't moved for a long time, and even his eyes looking at an unknown place in the distance seemed to gradually become a little confused.
The strong wind roared in, carrying rainwater in the sky, lingering outside the window, but every time he wanted to rush into the window and see him drenched all over, he would be formed a wall by an invisible force. Gently block the ruler outside the window and do not move forward.
"Papa, papa..." Someone knocked on the door lightly outside the house, Wang Gen withdrew his gaze from a distance, was silent for a moment, and said, "Come in."
With a squeak, the door of the study room was pushed open. A man dressed in the costume of a disciple of the Ling Xiaozong came in. He was quite tall, and he was the one who posted the notice with another short junior fellow a while ago. , Wang Gen turned around and glanced at him, nodded, and said: "Senior Brother Zheng is here, sit down."
This Ling Xiaozong disciple named Zheng Zhe, whom he called Junior Brother Zheng, was named Zheng Zhe. He had always been close to Wang Gen. He was Wang Gen's powerful helper in presiding over various affairs on Qingyu Island. He was also called Wang Gen's right hand with Kang Chen.
The two had a good relationship. Zheng Zhe and Wang Gen were relatively casual when they were alone. They nodded in agreement and walked to the side to sit down.
Wang Gen closed the window and shut the door outside the door, then turned around and sat down in front of Zheng Zhe, and said, "How are things going?"
Zheng Zhe said: "The storm notice has been affixed to the notice board, and then I ran a few more important places, such as the formation hall, the altar hall, the mine, the demon cave, and the animal farm of the spirit beast hall, etc., I personally went to see it. Look, I also told the juniors who were stationed there, so that they could not relax. After all, the newcomers who just came this year have only been on the island for more than ten days. I am afraid that they have not seen a storm in the sea, so if something happens accidentally Oh no."
Wang Gen nodded and said, "It's true. You are careful in doing things, so I am naturally relieved." After speaking, he paused, and said, "Can you count the number of people everywhere?"
Zheng Zhe said: "Most of the heads have been counted, and there is no omission. Only the Zhentang I went to is the earliest. Because the decent people were sent to the'Caibei Beach' to ask the new disciples to turn around, they were turning around one after another. , So let’s go first. However, the two juniors on duty at Zhentang are solid and prudent people, and there should be no mistakes."
Wang Gen smiled and said, "It should be so. After all, the new disciples who are picking shellfish over there are almost all of the family's children. If any one of them happens, it may be a lot of trouble. The two juniors, Zhong and Xu, are also from families. I must be very clear on this point."
Zheng Zhe coughed and did not answer.
Wang Gen glanced at him, and didn't say anything further. The study seemed to quiet down suddenly, and the sound of wind and rain outside the house was eagerly mad, as if gradually coming in.
After a while, Zheng Zhe opened his mouth and said, "Brother, Kang Chen has been to Jinhong Mountain for several days, and I haven't seen any return yet. Is he really punished?"
Wang Gen's eyes flickered, and after a while, he slowly shook his head, and said, "I don't know that Senior Brother Kang is a true lover of the head teacher, and he and that Senior Brother Du both called Huaiyuan a true lover. He would definitely not be wrong. The punishment is too heavy."
Zheng Zhe nodded, as if he was relieved, but the corner of his eye seemed to look at Wang Gen casually. After a while, Wang Gen seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Zheng Zhe and asked, "That's right, what did Junior Brother Lin say about the disappearance notice?"
Zheng Zhe shook his head and said: "I have asked him many times, but Junior Brother Lin insisted that he did post the notice this morning, and there is absolutely no possibility of a mistake."
Wang Gen snorted coldly and said, "Then why didn't you see it later?"
Zheng Zhe smiled bitterly: "I asked him the same way, but Junior Brother Lin was dumbfounded and couldn't answer. He just insisted that he had posted it and said that someone might deliberately harm him.
Wang Gen frowned and said, "Nonsense, which one will harm him?"
Zheng Zhe shrugged.
Wang Gen was silent for a moment, and said: "The newcomer entered the island, and I just took over the affairs on Herring Island. There are so many things involved, and I don’t have the idle time to worry about him. Go back and say something to him and tell him to do something next time. Remember to be steadfast and serious, no matter how impetuous and unreal, if you make a mistake, I won't spare him a second time."
Zheng Zhe nodded and said, "Yes, I will explain to Junior Brother Lin."
Wang Gen thought for a while, and then said, "You should go to Zhentang again later to make sure that they have all the numbers. The newcomer hasn’t come to the island soon. If the facts are not good, it’s me. I'm afraid I will eat and hang up in front of the elders of the sect."
Zheng Zhe nodded and agreed, then stood up, and said, "If this is the case, I will just go to the battle hall now. Brother, just wait for my news."
Wang Gen also got up, patted Zheng Zhe's shoulder lightly, and said, "Thank you brother."
Zheng Zhe grinned and was not polite, then turned and walked out of the study. As the door closed again behind him, Wang Gen walked to the window again and pushed the window slowly.
Seeing the sky full of wind and rain, like weeping like complaints, amidst the wind and rain, the vast expanse actually covered the majestic green mountains.
Wang Gen silently looked into the distance, looking at the fuzzy shadow behind the heavy rain curtain, startled, as if thinking deeply.

In the darkness, Chen Shi let out a painful hum, and slowly woke up from the faint.
Alive or dead, this thought came to him when he opened his eyes. There was a deep darkness in his eyes. It seemed that he couldn't see the slightest light. There was a kind of trance. The illusion of falling into the underworld of hell.
Just a moment later, a dozen or so places all over his body suddenly felt pain, and he grinned in the dark to fight a cold war, and at the same time Shen Shi woke up. The pain was so real and there were so many injuries on his body. They were all caused by being hit by the water on the hard rock wall just now, and I don't seem to know why, but I escaped a catastrophe and unexpectedly survived.
It's just that there is darkness around him, and he doesn't know where he is. Shen Shi only feels that besides the pain everywhere, there is a faint chill coming from him.
He took a deep breath, settled, and sat up hard, then tentatively stretched out his hand in the dark. The tentacles were cold, as if he had touched a puddle, Shen Shi stunned, and his hands and feet moved randomly. After groping for a while, I found that there was shallow water around a foot deep, and I seemed to have been washed into a small pond or on the shore of the water.
Shen Shi didn't dare to move around in the dark for a while. After all, there was an unfamiliar environment around him. He didn't know where it was and whether there would be anything dangerous, so he sat there and didn't even bother to sit. It was a little uncomfortable in the water, and I began to try my best to remember the situation before I was unconscious.
After a while, he thought of another important thing. He was not alone in such a desperate situation and swallowed into the cave by the huge wave.
Where is Zhong Qingzhu?
