Chapter 1326 Two hundred and sixty-four. Fifth Night

  Qiaoqiao let Lu Li, who attracted the infected, know the plan by shouting.

"Now."

   Lu Li just happened to attract the infected to the door of the lighthouse.

   "Not now... We have to push through."

  Jojo looked behind him as people laboriously pushed oval searchlights weighing hundreds of pounds.

   "Third lap push down."

   They don't have much time. The infected person is gradually learning to think. When it realizes that Lu Li is just a hairball, and the top floor of the lighthouse is a mouse, it will be the death of Qiaoqiao and others.

"one."

  Lu Li's calm voice sounded, people pushed the searchlights hard, someone slipped and was immediately filled by others.

"two."

  The window blocked them, the old man on crutches smashed the glass, and they stepped on the shards to retreat the lighthouse to the edge.

"three."

"All right!"

  Lu Li suddenly floated straight up, Qiaoqiao's head retracted to the lighthouse, the next moment, a shadow whistled down, passed through Lu Li's soul, hit the body of the infected person who stopped at the bottom, and at the same time tightly blocked the door.

  The surging filth suddenly turned into flesh mud, and the black mucus that no longer condensed was like seawater seeping into the cracks of the rock and disappeared.

   They should have dealt with the infected.

  Excited people clenched their fists and suppressed cheers.

  Lu Li returned to the lighthouse, the distant horizon was like ink dripping into a river, and dark clouds were surging in the low sky.

  The ocean gradually became violent and washed deep into the reef area. Sheet lightning in the clouds illuminates the dark and gloomy island, followed by icy air currents from howling winds.

   The torrential rain had not yet started to fall, but the crowds in the dark lighthouse began to move away from the broken windows that were fed by the cold and wet wind.

  Jojo wanted to block the broken window, the top of the tower would be worse when the storm came, and there was nothing here.

   "We can go back down."

  Jojo can already imagine the storm pouring into the lighthouse.

   But no one wants to go back to the lighthouse with minced meat and the plague.

  Qiaoqiao had to climb back to the lighthouse alone with Lu Li, looking for something to block the window.

   "I don't plan to distribute the food equally..." Watching the trapdoor above her close, Jojo, who climbed down the ladder, waved the stale air, stepped over the dirty minced meat and pushed open the narrow window.

  The wet and cold sea breeze poured into the lighthouse, washing away the smell of blood.

   "All the canned food will be given to those who set out this time and their families. I will give the canned food of the dead Hassan and Logy to their families."

  The dull sound of thunder echoing from afar made Jojo pause for a moment, "Let the rest of the people eat wheat flour."

  Lu Li has no opinion.

  Jojo stepped over the filth, rummaged through the storage cabinet and whispered, "I should thank you..."

   "When I got rid of the influence of my family, and really faced the test of humanity, I realized how much you promised me to go to the Shadow Swamp to save my brother..."

  Qiaoqiao couldn't think of a suitable word to describe it, but Lu Li remained quiet.

  咣—

   Opened the closed storage cabinet in the corner, and Jojo found a rain cloth that could surround the lighthouse ring window.

  Some blood was spilled on the locker, and although Jojo was careful enough, she still scratched her pinky finger by the sharp iron piece on the edge of the locker when she took them out.

  Jojo's body was stiff, and her cheeks turned pale instantly.

  Abruptly, a sharp tearing sound like cutting through the air sounded, and her raised pinky finger was cut off by the invisible blade.

   Blood gushed out from the severed limb, and the groaning Jojo almost screamed.

   The trapdoor rushed open, and Lu Li asked Aunt Mary to bring a handkerchief: "Come down and help, Jojo is injured."

   Fortunately, they were not reduced to waste because of fear, and someone came down to help.

   Thunder rumbled, the lighthouse seemed to tremble, and the hurricane plunged the outside into night-darkness.

   "windows."

  Jojo, who bandaged her fingers, reminded that the strong wind brought rainwater into the lighthouse, which made the lighthouse more dangerous, and the pollution may be blown to the body by the wind.

   "Let the rain clean up here."

  Lu Li helped Qiaoqiao climb back to the top of the lighthouse. Fortunately, it was not the other fingers that were injured, and she could endure to climb up.

boom-

   The trapdoor is pressed again. The middle-aged man holding the rain cloth wanted to cover the window, but Lu Li asked him to wait a little longer.

   It's only the eve of the storm, and the visibility isn't bad enough.

   When the rain turned heavy and the refugees near the hole were almost wet with the wind and rain pouring in, Lu Li asked them to cover the window with a rain cloth and cover the hole at the same time.

   The lighthouse was plunged into the darkness of night. The oil lamps shone dimly, and the top of the tower was filled with the sound of wind and rain beating on the tarpaulins.

  The moisture pouring into the lighthouse from the cracks makes people shiver, but it is better than letting the wind and rain pour in.

  Jojo started to follow the assignment she told Lu Li, the missing finger added convincing power, and no one was dissatisfied with her assignment.

   An old man who was so thirsty and confused was holding some rainwater and drinking it. The others waited for more than ten minutes to confirm that he was all right, and also scrambled to reach under the rain cloth to drink water, and then mix with wet wheat flour.

  This hurricane is very timely, the refugees don’t have to worry about the water source for the time being, and the torrential rain will also blind the perception of the infected.

   But there is also bad news - they are running out of time.

   "Thank you Aunt Mary, I'll just do it myself."

  Aunt Mary helped Qiaoqiao open the can. When she was about to feed, Qiaoqiao took the can and asked Lu Li, "Are you going to continue the investigation?"

   "Well, and looking for a boat."

The    lighthouse became relatively quiet, and the refugees took notice.

  Jojo hesitated slightly, but shook his head and said, "Did you come to the Lennon Islands to investigate the plague? This is more important..."

   "It is equally important to protect you."

  Jojo was silent, her eyes gradually continued to mist, as if she saw another person from that illusory, vague outline. She rubbed her eyes with her wet sleeves: "We won't be a burden to you."

  Lu Li nodded lightly, blending into the night-like torrential rain in Aunt Mary's concern.

  Rainscreen is bidirectional. Lu Li couldn't see the infected, and they couldn't see him either.

   The dark rain screen washed away the traces left by the plague last night, overlooking Temple Island, only lightning tore through the darkness, and there was no burning area.

   Tempest destroyed man's most advantageous weapon against the plague.

  Lu Li came to the port first, and the infected seemed to be dormant in the depths of the lines formed by the torrential rain, and the rain washed away their traces.

   floated outside the dark cabin of a sailing ship docked in the harbor. Those that are docked, anchored are preferred, but…

   No one in the lighthouse controls a steam or sailboat.

   The thick, surging darkness told him that the infected were hiding inside.

   For a group of old people, women and children, a small wooden boat is not enough. It is difficult for them to get their wooden boats off the coast on their own, unless they are lucky enough to encounter rip currents.

   Leaving the port temporarily, Lu Li tried to find survivors. But not everyone is like a lighthouse, far from the whirlpool and protected by ghosts.

  The infected occupied the palace in the center of Tambul, and Lu Li came to the cathedral, which was full of weird and deformed footprints. In the end, he returned to the Exorcist Association and watched the empty ruins shatter and appear on Broken Mountain Island on the eve of dawn.

  Waiting patiently in the cave for a day, when the pure black stones are full, a new curtain opens in front of you.

  The Exorcist Association, firelight and beating shadows extend from the collapsed wall.
