Meow Ba

Chapter 257 Mysterious Cave
"..."

what's the situation?
Are there still people living on this island?

The scene that suddenly appeared in front of him stunned Ron. He lowered his figure and walked forward slowly.

And as the distance got closer, the cabin and its surroundings became clearer—under the sky above the wellhead, there was a small pond, which was regarded as a square of running water.

Next to the pond, a small piece of farmland was reclaimed, but no one had planted it for a long time, and it was covered with weeds.

The situation is the same for several cabins. I don’t know whether it is limited to handwork or technology. These cabins have no doors, but have glass windows, like a person with dark eyes and a black mouth.

In front of the cabin, there was obviously a fire pit, similar to the one Ron and Catherine built in the shelter, and the charcoal inside was covered with ashes.

"Meow~"

No one has lived here for many years~
Although it is said that cats have nine lives, Ron doesn't believe it.

Now alone with the cat, he didn't dare to go any further. He turned around and returned the same way. When he was under the warm sunlight again, Ron took a deep breath.

"Oranges, oranges!"

Catherine and Molly's calls sounded in the distance, and Ron trotted on the beach and returned to the shelter.

…………

"The hurricane is back."

The storm rolled up the sand, crackling and slapping on the bamboo leaf outer wall of the shelter. As the wind continued to increase, the shelter could be felt shaking.

Relying on three big trees, the shelter made of bamboo is strong enough under normal strong winds, but in the current hurricane, the existence of the shelter obviously increases the burden on the big trees.

Listening to the continuous creaking of the big tree trunks outside, everyone in the shelter was silent. Although everyone collected enough food and firewood and strengthened the shelter during the half day when the hurricane made landfall, they did their best and listened. Destiny, the next thing to do is to pray.

"boom!"

A huge roar continued to sound, and Ron quietly opened the gap between the bamboo leaf fence, and Ron looked out.

Outside the shelter, the rain was not too heavy, but the seawater that had just been swept away by the coast had already returned—the hurricane raised huge waves, crashed into the coast frantically, and sent the spray scattered by the waves directly to the shelter.

Ron's nose could even smell seaweed in the foam.

"crunch~~~~"

"boom!"

The creaking sound of the trunk of the big tree continued, just when everyone thought it was similar to the sound they were used to just now, but this time the creaking sound lasted for a long time, and then there was a huge sound, a huge branch Straight through the roof of the shelter by mistake-fortunately, everyone is on the first floor of the shelter at the moment, and no one was injured.

However, if the roof is not repaired, everyone will be exposed to the wind and rain!

"Hogarth, let's go out and have a look!"

Under the huge wind pressure, Lorraine stood up from the campfire-the huge wind pressure continued to drill in through the hole pierced, and the campfire had been blown out.

…………

The girls huddled in the still intact half of the shelter, and Ron followed Lorraine and Hogarth carefully out of the shelter, standing in the somewhat pale light.

The gravel rose with the wind, slapping people's bodies and faces, and Ron could only squint his eyes.

The matter was very serious. One of the three big trees that formed the foundation of the shelter had been broken by the strong wind. It was the broken upper part of this big tree that fell and hit the top of the shelter.

And the situation of the remaining two is not good. Although they have not been blown off, the ground with roots has been slightly lifted.

"Damn storm, there is no way to repair it."

In the wind, Lorraine gritted his teeth and cursed. They had tried their best, but it seemed that the storm didn't intend to give Lorraine a chance.

"Lorraine, do we continue to hide inside?"

The complexion of Hogarth next to him was not good either. He looked around, his hair fluttering in the gust of wind—these three big trees were the most suitable area for hundreds of meters nearby. The jungle was devastated by the storm, and it couldn't block the wind and rain at all.

"No way, I can only ask for luck."

Pursing his lips tightly, Lorraine answered weakly—just as he was about to climb up the big tree and try to patch up the holes in the shelter, he suddenly felt his trousers being pulled.

"tangerinr?"

"Meow~"

Come with me~!

I found a place that should be shelter from this storm!
The paw slapped on Lorraine's leg, and the Morse code, which hadn't been used for a long time, played again, becoming a communication bridge between Ron and Lorraine.

After the communication, Ron immediately turned around and ran to the white sand beach where the plane was parked.

"Hogarth, take care of the girls."

"I'll come when I go."

Squinting, following the round orange figure in the wind and rain, Lorraine instructed Hogarth, and then quickly followed, watching Ron get into a dark cave that he hadn't found before.

Do you want to go in?
Hesitating at the entrance of the cave for a few seconds, the more violent wind and rain made Lorraine make up his mind, he bent down and burrowed into the cave...

"Hogarth, where's Lorraine?"

"He said he'd be back later."

In the shelter, the roof of the shelter was slightly repaired with thick firewood, so that the wind force was reduced enough to rekindle the bonfire, and a few people without Lorraine and Ron were worried about those who went out.

"Squeak~"

"boom!"

Lorraine has not come back yet, but the shelter is about to lose its hold, and there is another sound of tree trunks snapping. This time, another big tree broke, and the result is that the bamboo leaf wall of the shelter is completely open. Cracked, no longer able to stop the invasion of the gust of wind.

And at this critical moment, there was a meowing meow coming down the wind, and then Lorraine appeared.

"Quick! I found a better shelter!"

"Let's get out of here!"

…………

"Finally safe!"

Compared with the bamboo leaf shelter among the three big trees blown by the strong wind, the rock shelter is obviously more reassuring.

After more than half an hour of material transfer, everyone settled down again in the cave discovered by Ron.

All food, large quantities of firewood, and various equipment brought down from the plane were all moved to the cave.

After moving out all the supplies, Lorraine and Ron, who were the last to leave, saw the Bamboo Leaf Shelter being destroyed by the strong wind, and all three big trees were broken, becoming victims of the hurricane.

However, although they moved to the cave, like Ron, everyone didn't have the guts to explore the three cabins yet. They just rekindled the bonfire by the pond and waited for the storm to subside.

However, this may take a long time.
