Chapter Twelve Follow Silently

After a few muffled thunder came down, the originally clear sky gradually became a layer of gray-yellow, and the air was filled with a fishy smell of dust, which spread everywhere with the wind.

Pedestrians suddenly rushed on the long street. When the vendors on the roadside saw that the weather was not good, they all restrained their goods and withdrew their stalls in advance and walked home. A bustling long street became quiet for a while.

At the end of the long street, the quiet mansion was closed with only a plaque without words hanging on the lintel, which became more and more inconspicuous as the sky faded. Inside the mansion, there was a weed of weeds growing in the empty courtyard. A man looked up at the sky with his eyes distant and quiet, and looked more calm than the people who were walking hurriedly outside the door.

The sky had accumulated thick dark clouds, and a woman in black appeared ghostly behind the man, putting a thick fur on him.

It was clearly the 1960s. She was wearing thin and neat clothes, and she didn't even have any extra decoration on her body. The man stood with her, but she was like the cold winter.

"Master, it's going to rain, it's time to go back."

Under the black coat, the woman's face was dull and quiet, her eyes were empty and lonely, without any turbulence. Even her voice was low and indifferent, as cold as the ancient well in winter, without any emotion or temperature. With her face as pale as snow, the air within three feet seemed to be frozen by her.

It seemed to be to fulfill her words. A gust of wind suddenly rolled up in the sky, and large raindrops began to hit the ground, spreading a large patch of water. The woman seemed to be ready. Before the first raindrop collapsed, she held a thick oil-paper umbrella beside the man, and the next second she hugged his waist, and rushed into the room not far away like the wind. The whole set of movement was completed in one go, as smooth as a habit that had been developed over the years.

The summer rain is so big that it has always been arbitrary. But in a blink of an eye, the wind suddenly became stronger and blew everywhere without direction. The rain became tight in an instant, and the ground was soaked in the blink of an eye. However, the two people in the room did not even get a drop of rain.

"You are getting more and more diligent in your skills." The man smiled, but did not reach the corner of his eyes.

"Then you should be happy." The woman's reaction was cold and indifferent, and she didn't even have basic respect for her master as a subordinate.

The man's smile gradually retracted and he didn't say anything. It was raining heavily outside, and there seemed to be a huge smoke screen in the world, gray and white. The man stared at the rushing rain screen under the eaves and gradually lost his focus, as if he saw another similar scene through it.

"It's raining heavily..." After a while, he whispered softly.

If it rains heavily, it would be fine if it is in the city, there are inns and restaurants everywhere, and the worst is that there are eaves and corridors to temporarily shelter from the rain. If you are in the wild, you will be less lucky, at most there will be an ancient Taoist pavilion. But the worst luck is in the mountains or rivers. There is no way to hide, and the better ones can have a cave or a huge rock to hide, otherwise there will be only the branches and leaves of the trees above your head, and you will have to be hard.

Qi Xiu was the little unlucky guy who was so lucky. The heavy rain came too suddenly, and she only heard a muffled thunder, and when she looked up at the sky, she turned into a slaughter.

In order to protect the basket of herbs that she finally picked, Qi Xiu gave up only the only rain felt. When she protected the herbs, she had already been wet inside and outside, so she simply stopped hiding.

Walking on the mountain road in heavy rain is a dangerous thing. Besides, it is getting late, but seeing that there is no village or shop in front of the village or behind the mountain, it is still far from the bottom of the mountain, Qi Xiu had to wipe his face and look around, wanting to find a place to hide.

After walking in the rain for a while, she finally found a cave. Rather than a cave, it was a little concave. Although the area was small, it could barely enter by one person. Qi Xiu put the medicine basket in first, and sat down against the entrance of the cave and twisted the water from his clothes along the sleeves.

About half an hour later, Qi Xiu finally twisted his clothes half dry, turned his head and looked out the hole, and heard a loud thunder, and there was no sign of the rain. Looking at the darkening sky, my face was covered with a layer of depression.

Due to the rain, the night will come early. The strong wind rolled up a huge and wide curtain in the sky, and soon it blocked the original light of the sky and poured black like ink on it.

Even with dense trees blocking it, the raindrops as big as beans still form a series of dense water lines through the layers of branches and leaves. The trees around them creaked constantly by the wind. At this moment, Biantuo Mountain is like a vulnerable old and dilapidated house.

Because of the huge sound of rain, except for the sound of salsa hitting branches, no sound around it can be heard. Because of this, it makes people even more confused.

What Qixiu hates the most is that it is raining. The rain is so cool, every drop seems to be cool to the heart.

The cave was cold and tide, and her clothes were sticky and stuck to her body. She sat in this narrow place and could only barely stretch her legs halfway, and five inches above her head reached the top.

The cramped space seemed to be a hard cocoon shell that wrapped her inside. Although there was no obstacle at the entrance of the hole, she still felt depressed, her chest was stuffy and tight, and she couldn't breathe.

It was fine when it was light up outside, but as the night came, Qi Xiu gradually began to feel uncomfortable. It seemed as if a rope slowly climbed up from the ground and climbed up her throat, wrapping around in circles.

The darker the outside, the tighter the rope. The moment the skylight disappeared completely, Qi Xiu felt his throat suddenly being strangled, and the air around him seemed to be solidified. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get rid of this strangulation. This short cave exuded a narrow and oppressive aura, like a pair of giant palms, covering her mouth and nose tightly.

Qi Xiu struggled and moved the hole a few times, tremblingly grabbed the felt cloth used to cover the medicine basket and rushed into the rain.

The violent mountain wind slapped her face with the cold rain, and the suffocation slowly disappeared. Qi Xiu lay on the ground in a mess and gasped. The rain falling through the forest poured her from the inside out, but the coldness also calmed her originally manic mind. She supported the ground with both hands, and after a long time, she felt as if she had reborn and got up slowly. She was just out in a hurry, and the felt cloth was taken to the other side. She touched the ground from the ground, grabbed the rain felt that fell on the ground, picked up and shook the mud and water on it, and then wrapped it back to the hole, and sat on the ground with silence.

"When will the rain stop? Alas, the cave is so small, it's so annoying..." Qi Xiu said in anger after sitting for a while, with a strong nasal sound.

"Well, I'm so hungry..." The voice trembled and sounded very aggrieved.

"I want to eat jade hoofs..." She sucked her nose and smacked her lips.

The sound of a kitten was blown by the wind, and most of the time disappeared. A little bit of it floated, floating above the head into the ears of a person who had already merged with the tree and the rain.

Crying? Li Qianfan frowned and couldn't help looking under the tree. A person who was huddled in a crowd was vaguely shaking in the wind and rain while muttering something.
