A dowry of one billion, and I'll marry him!
Chapter 34 Washed Away by the Sea
"The wind is picking up," Gu Yubai's hoarse voice rang out.
He had barely finished speaking when Shi Yanxia rushed forward, grabbed his collar, and dragged him back.
With a loud bang, lightning flashed and struck the spot where he had just been standing.
Gu Yubai's legs went weak instantly. He then realized that if Shi Yanxia hadn't pulled him up just now, he would probably be dead by now, and the stones on the ground would have been split open.
"Thank you." Gu Yubai's voice trembled slightly.
Shi Yanxia stood there with her hands behind her back and a very serious face. She took out a talisman, touched the cinnabar with her fingertips, quickly drew characters on it, and stuck it towards the cave entrance.
"This is... a talisman?" Bai Nuannuan asked, somewhat surprised.
Holding a flashlight close, I could see the yellow talisman on it. I couldn't understand the messy characters, but I knew it was a talisman.
"Mmm," Shi Yanxia replied softly.
The group exchanged glances and looked towards Shi Yanxia.
She met the questioning looks from the group and said irritably, "I grew up in the mountains, and my master is the abbot of a Taoist temple! So I am not only proficient in traditional Chinese medicine and know herbs, but I also know a little about Taoist matters."
"What kinds are there?" Bai Nuannuan asked, leaning closer like a curious child.
She discovered that Shi Yanxia had many secrets, areas she had never encountered before.
"I know a little bit about fortune telling, face reading, feng shui, and talisman drawing," Shi Yanxia said, pointing to the sky and whispering, "When I got off the ship, I noticed something was off about the sky, and I knew it would be windy tonight."
“Metaphysics is something our ancestors left us, it must be right,” Shi Yanxia said.
Many people may think that metaphysics is a scam and unreliable. Only those in the know understand that mastering metaphysics can see through everything.
"Shi Yanxia, you really are my little darling! Come here, I love you." Bai Nuannuan said, stepping forward to take Shi Yanxia's hand and rubbing it repeatedly.
Holding her hand and pressing it against his face, he said, "Give me some spiritual energy, I've been having such bad luck lately."
Zheng Jiao was also somewhat taken aback, shocked by Shi Yanxia.
"You can even read feng shui? Are we going to die here?" Zheng Jiao asked hurriedly.
Seeing the thunder was so loud, it felt really dangerous.
"Don't worry, you won't die," Shi Yanxia said in a low voice.
Gu Yubai stood there, watching the two women gossip about Shi Yanxia. He hesitated, wanting to speak but unable to get a word in edgewise, so he simply sat down next to the suitcase and listened.
"Oh no, our meat is still outside." Bai Nuannuan said, getting up to go out and collect the meat.
The thunder outside stopped, but the wind continued to howl. The group rushed out and retrieved all the meat, placing it on a pile of branches. They then saw birds and animals scattering about outside.
The branches rustled in the wind, and the sound of waves could be faintly heard.
Zheng Jiao pointed to the talisman she had just pasted and asked in a low voice, "Sister Shi, what is the talisman you just pasted for?"
"Waterproof, windproof, and lightning-proof. We are near the sea, and if the wind picks up, the seawater will probably flood in. Our cave is located at a high altitude, but once the waves come crashing in, water will definitely come in."
"Plus, the location we chose is close to a century-old tree. If lightning strikes, it will hit here. Although it seems dangerous, this place is said to ward off evil spirits," Shi Yanxia explained in a low voice.
Lightning-struck wood is the most valuable thing.
Thinking of this, she looked at the two big trees outside the door, thinking that she would have to take the lightning-struck branches back and put them away after daybreak.
"Ring." Just then, her phone vibrated.
Upon seeing the unfamiliar number, Shi Yanxia quickly answered. The director's voice came from the other end of the line, excitedly saying, "Shi Yanxia, you really guessed right, the wind is about to pick up."
"How did you guess that?" the director asked excitedly.
He even went to the weather bureau to ask, and they all said there would be no wind, but unexpectedly, the wind did pick up in the middle of the night.
"I guessed that, but once the wind picks up, the seawater will probably flood in. It won't be too serious, but you should still avoid it and try to go uphill," Shi Yanxia said in a low voice.
The director listened, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is your place safer?"
"Yes," Shi Yanxia replied in a low voice.
The eight people participating in the variety show had their cell phone signals blocked. The production team could contact them, but they could not contact the outside world.
So the director can find them, but they can't contact the director, meaning their phones can't connect to the internet except for taking pictures.
"Would you mind if we came over? Some of the equipment is quite expensive," the director asked in a low voice.
After being startled awake by the thunder, they got up and watched the live stream. Through the hidden camera, they heard Shi Yanxia's conversation with them.
I knew she understood feng shui and could tell fortunes! The key point is that she drew a talisman and pasted it on the entrance of the cave.
People in the industry are very superstitious, and they especially believe in feng shui! Her words were like a lifeline, and the director immediately called her to confirm the matter.
"Okay, I'll have the photographers and the others go over there," the director said, and then hung up the phone.
Before long, the production crew arrived in a large group, carrying equipment. Just as they entered the cave, a violent storm struck outside.
Not far away, a large tree was uprooted with a loud crash and fell directly to the ground.
"Damn, thank goodness we ran fast! Otherwise we would all be done for," a staff member whispered.
Several timid people simply shrank inside.
Some people took out their phones and started recording videos, while the photographers also turned on live streaming and broadcast it to the outside world...
"Is the cave over there safe for Group A? Should we call and ask?" the director said in a low voice.
As he spoke, he picked up his phone and made a call.
In Group A, Shen Lianchu was still throwing a tantrum. She had finally fallen asleep when she was woken up by a phone call. She picked up the phone and said, "Who is it?"
"This is Director Ning. It's getting windy. How's the situation on your end? Can you confirm that it's safe?" the director asked in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Shen Lianchu quickly sat up.
She noticed a strong wind and heavy rain outside, with lightning flashing constantly. She shrank back slightly and whispered, "It seems to be windy, but it's okay."
The director hesitated for a moment and asked, "We're on the B team side. If you feel it's dangerous, would you like to move over here?"
"With more people, safety is more guaranteed," the director said.
Shen Lianchu listened and said with some disdain, "Director, we won't go. They're probably all hiding in caves. What danger could there be?"
"Okay, be careful." The director said and hung up the phone.
As Shen Lianchu watched the director hang up the phone, she felt a pang of regret. A strange feeling washed over her, and she looked outside in a flustered manner.
"What happened?" Shen Beiran got up.
He squinted and looked outside, only to find that a violent storm had already broken out, with lightning flashing and splitting a tree in the distance in two.
"Fuck." He cursed directly.
