Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 1062 The Tide is Rising! A ray of hope

Hearing that there was finally no movement outside, Michelle asked in a low voice: "Chris, have they left?"

Chris nodded: "There's no movement outside, so he must have left."

"Then we can go out now?"

"Not yet. Although the Song army has just left here, isn't it possible that they will come back to attack us?
Let's wait in this cave for another day.

This island is so small, I think one day is enough for the Song army to search it thoroughly. If they can’t find us, they will leave.”

"Chris, you're so smart!"

"How else would I be the boss?"

The two talked for a while, and then waited quietly again.

Time passed little by little, and the scorching sun outside had been replaced by cool moonlight.

Li Erniu and others began to prepare today's food not far from the cave, and the cave remained quiet and silent shortly after they left.

Li Erniu was not in a hurry. If you want to hide, then let you continue to hide slowly and see how long you can hide.
It was not until nearly midnight that Liu Erniu suddenly sent dozens of his men to the cave entrance for another look around.

Their presence immediately made Chris and the others, who had already put their minds at ease, nervous again.

You Xie Er listened to the footsteps going away again, and couldn't help but feel relieved:
"Fortunately, we listened to Chris, otherwise we would have been caught by the Song army."

The thieves all nodded, feeling hopeful.

Chris's brows were indeed tightly furrowed, and he felt that something was wrong. The Song army was searching everywhere in the middle of the night. Wasn't this a bit too diligent?

However, they were trapped in the cave and he had no other source of information, so he could only make judgments based on the situation at hand.

The moonlight grows darker and the night passes by in a flash.

At this time, the sky was just getting bright, with a slightly purple morning light shining down, and the sound of a large number of people walking back and forth could be heard at the entrance of the cave.

This sound immediately woke up the drowsy thieves.

"Chris, why are they searching at this time?"

Michel and other thieves also felt puzzled.

Chris could only shake his head and said, "No matter what, let's just keep hiding."

Everyone had no choice but to nod.

But what they didn't know was that outside the cave, Li Erniu and others were looking thoughtfully at the cave entrance that they had blocked.

Li Erniu smiled and said, "Are you sure there was smoke coming out of here before?"

Several soldiers nodded heavily and said, "General, we saw smoke coming out of the mountain wall ahead this morning!"

It turned out that the cave was too cold at night. Chris did not allow his men to start a fire when it was dark because he was worried that the fire would be seen from outside. He only allowed his men to start a fire when it was slightly light.

But what he didn't expect was that this pile of work happened to coincide with the Song army coming for inspection, and they just happened to see the smoke coming out from the mountain wall.

After pulling away the green plants in front of me, I found a mountain wall that was completely different from the surrounding mountain walls.

After confirming the situation, the smile on Li Erniu's face became even wider. If that was the case, he was more confident and directly ordered people to guard the place.

Chris and others in the cave were still wondering why the Song army didn't leave? Could it be that they had discovered them?

By dusk in the afternoon, the sound of the Song army leaving was finally heard outside.

But this time, Li Erniu and his companions actually left Changyue Island: "Because the sea water has begun to rise!" The surrounding sea water began to spread towards Changyue Island.

The land on Changyue Island was also swallowed up by the sea bit by bit.

Chris, who hadn't heard any movement outside for more than two hours, said to everyone, "I'm afraid those Song soldiers have really left, but we still have to be careful."

Everyone nodded. The Song army's irregular explorations yesterday and today also made them alert.

However, at this moment, someone suddenly said, "Strange, Boss Chris, the water in this cave seems to have risen a lot!"

There is a source of fresh water in this cave, otherwise Chris and the others would not be hiding here.

However, at this time, the freshwater pit, which was originally the size of a water tank, has become the size of a millstone.

The surrounding cave walls also began to become moist, and one could even feel it clearly.

"Maybe it's night time. It's normal for the sea water to be high at night."

Chris explained.

Everyone reluctantly believed this explanation, but the robber who discovered the anomaly muttered, "But the tide didn't rise to this level last night."

However, only he heard these words, no one else heard them.

Chris and his friends were just about to get something to eat when someone suddenly shouted, "Boss Chris! Look at the hole! Water is coming in!"

Chris was shocked when he heard this and quickly turned around to look.

The next moment, they saw that the cave entrance that had been blocked tightly by them was actually beginning to see water flowing in from the outside.

He squatted down, picked up a little and licked it. He was immediately shocked, his face changed drastically, and he immediately shouted loudly:

"Oh no! It's sea water!
This island must be in high tide! The seawater has spread here.

Quick! Move the stone away from the cave entrance! We must get out immediately, or we will all die here!"

The others also reacted and started to move the stones. Chris finally figured out why the Song army left. It was probably because the tide was rising outside, and the Song army left when they found something wrong.

He didn't expect that the tide on this island would rise to this level.

He had only seen such high tides in Europe, and had heard from some old sailors that some islands would be completely submerged under the sea during high tide.

This was probably the case on Changyue Island. He was still wondering why the trees grew so tall.

Perhaps only an environment like Changyue Island can produce such plants.

I understand, I understand everything!

"Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't want us to drown together in this cave, then hurry up!"

The water under their feet had already spread over their ankles, and the movements of everyone moving the stones became heavy. Not only was it tiring, but the water under their feet was also a major obstacle to everyone's movement.

But no one dared to stop. If it was too late, they would have to stay here forever.

Finally, when it was completely dark outside, the stones at the entrance of the cave had been cleared and the water had spread to their waists.

The forty people hurriedly boarded the boat in the cave and rowed desperately out of the cave!

Launch an attack towards the only chance of survival!
