Chapter 326 Reunion in the Wind (Part 2)

On the last day of the harvest month, the port of Baiyùlan was extraordinarily empty, because today was the day the tsunami was predicted to come. The empty dàngdàng port exudes a repressed dead air, like a secluded city in the underworld.

Contrary to the atmosphere of the port, the weather was exceptionally clear and the sun was blindingly bright.

Elizabeth stood at the end of the wooden bridge, holding a parasol to block the strong sunlight. She was very serene, holding a glass bottle in her left hand, with a lonely white orchid in it. There was a hint of hope in her lowered eyes.

"Tangke..." A name spit out from the thin pink lips, but received no response.

The ship that should have appeared still did not appear, the sea was rippling with the wind, and the tsunami also disappeared.

Time passed, the sun moved above her head, and Elizabeth stood still until now, without eating or drinking. The only thing that changed in her was the growing anxiety in her eyes.

Time continued to carry out the ruthless style, ticking into the night, the sun completely sank, and the world was reduced to darkness. Elizabeth closed the parasol in despair, holding the umbrella and the bottle in front of her.

An old woman with gray hair came over from the darkness and stood beside Elizabeth. She only appeared at night, and like Elizabeth, she was waiting here.

"Aren't you going to avoid the tsunami, little girl? I heard that this port will be submerged today." The old woman asked.

"As long as the agreed date is not exceeded, I will wait. I am sure he will come." Elizabeth said firmly.

The old woman was very short. She raised her head and squinted at Elizabeth with a kind smile.

"You're waiting for a lover. The only thing in the world that people can wait for is love."

Lisabai nodded, "Old woman, is the person you've been waiting for also a lover?"

"Oh, of course that is."

"How long have you waited?"

"I'm too old to remember. I just remember that when I first waited for him, I was as tall and pretty as you."

From being young and beautiful until the age is wasted, it takes at least 40 years in between. Anyone can guess that the old woman can't wait for her lover.

Elizabeth's eyes flickered, and she opened her mouth in surprise. She was worried about Tangke before, and she never had a deep conversation with the mother-in-law. Only today did she know that the mother-in-law was so affectionate.

"Have you made a promise with him?" Elizabeth's voice was a little dry.

"Of course there is an agreement. That day he went out to sea to fish. Before leaving, he waved to me and said that he would definitely come back, and that he would marry me when he came back." The old woman was filled with incredible joy.

"God is so cruel." Elisabeth sighed and couldn't bear to keep asking. The mother-in-law's self-deceiving bubble is too beautiful, why bother to pop it.

A staggering footstep sounded from behind Elizabeth, followed by a burp of wine: "Is it my eyes? Why is there still someone here? She's still a beautiful girl. Hey anyway, the tsunami is also there. It's coming, we all have to die, why don't we have some fun before we die."

Elizabeth was immersed in her previous emotions, deaf to the voice behind her, and still stared at the black billowing sea in front of her.

"Hey, did you hear me? You're going to die in the tsunami anyway, why don't you come and play? Uncle, I'm pretty good at it." Say.

"Men like you will be hated, don't bother her, leave here quickly." The old lady turned around and advised.

"Damn old lady, get out of here"

"What a rude drunk. It's because drinking becomes like this that I don't let my family drink."

"I'm not interested in the old lady. Even if the tsunami comes, I won't touch you." The drunkard said nonsense without any hesitation.

Elizabeth heard Bīn's footsteps, which exceeded her tolerance. She closed her eyes and pulled out the sword of the squire's oath at her waist. As soon as the crisp voice fell, two third-order sword spirits appeared around. The sword spirits did not wait for the drunkard to make a sound, and the fork flashed.

The drunken man who was cut into several pieces fell into the icy sea water, and only the blood-stained wine bottle was spinning on the wooden board.

"Little girl, it's so ruthless when you look at how gentle you are." The old lady opened her eyes slightly and said in surprise.

"Sorry, I'm scared. But the foul language he said just now is really unbearable, and I'm in a really bad mood right now." Elizabeth apologized, returning the sword to the sheath, and the two sword spirits turned into nothingness .

The old woman smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm the sailor's fiancee, and I'm not afraid of anything. However, even if you didn't do anything just now, I would protect you."

Elizabeth reluctantly responded with a smile, taking what the old woman said as a joke. No matter how you look at it, this old woman is vulnerable.

"Boom..." A low roar came from afar, like ten thousand horses galloping, and soldiers were deployed in the battlefield.

Tangke did not come, but the predicted tsunami came as promised. A volcano erupted on the bottom of the sea, and the huge impact caused the sea water to set off a huge *, one bō pushed another one, and gradually expanded, and moved to the shore. It was the wrath of nature, and the tsunami was powerful enough to sweep the land along the coast, tearing down houses and uprooting trees.

"It's still too late to escape now. You look very powerful, and you must be running very fast." The old woman reminded kindly.

"What if I'm gone and he's here?" Elizabeth imagined innocently.

"There is no ship that can sail in a tsunami, and he simply can't come."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Elizabeth was anxious in her heart and in her words. "Can the person you waited for come? I will wait until the tsunami reaches my eyes."

The old woman sighed, "I don't want you to follow in my footsteps."

"I won't be the same as you, I will definitely be able to wait for him." Elizabeth said a little bravely.

The tsunami was so violent that it was about to devour the fragile wooden bridge before it reached the pier in a few minutes. A huge rumbling sound resounded through the night sky, and the height of the giant body reached a terrifying thirty yards, like a wall of water.

Elizabeth closed her eyes resolutely, and in a few seconds, she had to turn around and leave, even if she wanted to wait until the end, she couldn't stand in the tsunami. There was endless disappointment in her heart, why did Tangke miss the appointment? Although there was a tsunami today, the first twenty-nine days of this month were clearly sunny and sunny. It doesn't matter if he doesn't come, but why didn't he send someone? Could it be that those people were shipwrecked, so they didn't come? Could it be that God does not want them to be together?

Various questions hit her heart directly, causing a burst of pain.

"Sorry, I swam a little slower." A long-lost voice suddenly sounded.

Elizabeth opened her eyes in surprise, only to see a figure emerge from the dark sea water and jumped onto the wooden bridge, it was Tangke who she had been waiting for. Are you dreaming?"

Tangke didn't answer, and gave him a real hug. Through his cold body, he could still feel the fire-like temperature.

It's him, it's really him.

Elizabeth intensified her embrace. Although she was extremely happy, she beat Tangke's back a few times and complained, "Why did you come? I've been waiting for you for a whole month, standing here stupidly every day. But the days go by, and you don't even have a shadow."

Tangke patted her back and comforted: "Okay, okay, don't cry, am I here?"

Elizabeth pushed him away and said with red eyes, "Who's crying, I'm strong."

Tangke glanced at her from side to side and smiled: "I'm still thinking that you will cry. It seems that the heat is still not enough, I should come later."

"If you're late, I'll see how I deal with you in the future."

"How can you deal with me? Those little fists of yours won't hurt or itch on me." Tangke had the attitude of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

"Hmph, I don't care to beat you. I have other ways to deal with you, which my mother taught me before. It's amazing." Elizabeth rolled her beautiful eyes and rolled her eyes at him.

If it wasn't for the tsunami, the fiancée would continue to bicker. As the tsunami approached, some extremely powerful water spots had already hit the three of them.

Tangke glanced back and restrained his smile. When he turned his head, he glanced at the old woman and asked, "Who is she from you? Do you want to take her away?"

"You don't have to worry about me, hurry up and leave." The old woman smiled and said with an envious look, "Little girl, congratulations, you are waiting for the person to wait."

Elizabeth said anxiously: "Mother-in-law, if you want to wait, you can wait until the tsunami leaves. Let's go with us now."

The old woman smiled and shook her head.

Tangke was too lazy to persuade people, and didn't have time to ask any more questions. He directly reached out to grab the old woman, but his hand went straight through the old body. He and Elizabeth shouted in unison: "Dead!"

Elizabeth suddenly realized, no wonder the old woman just said she could protect her.

"So you can't take my ~lightnovelpub.net~ and don't worry that I will have an accident in the tsunami. Well, hurry up and leave. If you don't leave, you will get wet." The old woman smiled and waved her hand.

Elizabeth bit her mouth and said goodbye: "Old lady, I wish you can also wait for the person you want to wait for."

"I wish you happiness too." The old woman nodded.

"It hurts to be hit by the tsunami, Elizabeth, let's go." Tangke drew out his black sword, and took Elizabeth with the other hand, the sword was straight, and flew high into the sky. He was looking for the commanding heights in the flight, as long as there was a mountain top, he could pass the tsunami.

Elizabeth couldn't help but glance back down.

The tsunami has already opened the giant mouth of the beast, and it is about to devour the pier. The old woman looked insignificant in front of the tsunami.

In the tsunami, the shadow of an ancient sailing ship faintly sailed out. Judging from that, it was at least four hundred years ago. There was a young sailor on the boat waving at the old woman.

The next moment, the tsunami washed away the dreamlike scene, and the old woman and the sailboat disappeared without a trace.
