Chapter 0258: Torrential rain pours

At noon the next day, the torrential rain was still falling, and the dark clouds in the sky did not disperse, but continued to accumulate.

Standing under the rain eaves at the door, the village chief Jasper looked at the sky with a sad face, and kept cursing in his mouth: "Damn the ghost weather. ”

When it rains, they think that they can't go down the well to start work, and if they can't start work, they can't make money, and they have to feed those strong laborers for nothing, but they can eat very much, even if it is brown rice, they can eat half a copper.

The chief of Jasper was most troubled by the Black Cavalry and the sergeants at the Nolan outpost, whose food was simply more terrible than that of strong labor, and a few meals ate up two full days of food in the camp.

Food or something fell second, mainly because I was afraid that the other party would have other intentions.

Two more days passed in the blink of an eye, and the rainstorm finally slowly became lighter, and finally stopped completely.

The dark clouds that had been condensed for three days slowly dissipated, and the sun fell on the earth again.

Lei Ye felt that this was the worst three days he had ever had, his clothes and bedding were always wet, if it weren't for the muddy roads, he really wanted to leave in the rain.

Soon after the rain stopped, the village chief Jasper came to the door with a smile and asked him when he would be able to leave.

Lei Ye pursed his lips when he heard this, and finally gave the other party a clear answer: "Rest for two more days, and after two days, the road will not be so muddy, and we will leave, as if you want to stay in this broken place." ”

The disgust on his face was not fake, but a genuine disgust with this place where the living conditions were difficult and there was no human touch.

Over the next two days, the sun was shining, and the rainwater in the forest was quickly absorbed by the vegetation and soil, and the roads became viable.

Without waiting for the village chief Jasper to urge, Renard took the initiative to leave with the Black Cavalry and the people from the Nolan outpost in accordance with the promise given before, and did not mention the matter of the demon and the rescue solicitation during the whole process.

The man's expression looked a little anxious, and it wasn't until he left the camp far away that he couldn't wait to ask, "Lord Renard, aren't you here to rescue them?"

Renard was silent for a long time, then took a deep breath and asked, "Hal, why didn't you call them when you ran away?"

When the man heard this, he was also silent, and only after a long time did he say: "They have lost the desire to live, and what still exists in the world now is only a miserable shell." ”

Renard nodded, and asked helplessly, "Then do you think that even if I promise to take them away and give them a better quality of life, they will really go with me?"

Without waiting for the man to answer, Lei Ye denied himself: "Definitely not, they will only think that I have other intentions." ”

Renard shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's really a group of poor and pathetic people, they have adapted to life here, and they don't dare to change it easily, because they are afraid that after changing, they will not be as good as they are now, this is a group of people who have been defeated by life." ”

He then spread his hands: "So, why do I bother with this effort?"

Lei Ye is not a bad person, or he has never been a good person, he will not regard himself as a savior like other protagonists, and the principle he firmly believes in is only interests.

Other than that, there is only love, family, and friendship.

Renard is not a cold-blooded fellow, if there are relatives or friends in the group just now, even if the other party is unwilling, he will tie the other party away.

The man named Hal opened his mouth, and finally hung his head in disappointment, knowing that what the other man said was the truth.

Seeing this, Renard patted him on the shoulder: "You don't have to feel sad or guilty about this, they may still have a chance to be saved." ”

Lei Ye's words made Hal cheer up again, and he stared at the corners of his bloodshot eyes and asked, "What you said is true?"

Reynard groaned for a moment, then nodded, and he looked in the direction of the camp with a cryptic smile.

He instructed the two squadron leaders of the Black Cavalry, "You bring people back to the territory first, and let Heidi send twenty martial artists over." ”

The two Black Cavalry Squadron Leaders looked at each other and nodded immediately, these two were Douqi martial artists summoned by Lei Ye from the system, so they naturally knew what he wanted to express.

Renard turned to look at Hal and said, "Now you take your relatives and friends and follow them back to the county of Meredith, rest assured, they will arrange you all." ”

Hal nodded apprehensively, he didn't know what fate awaited him.

Either they really ascend directly to heaven as the other party described, or they are diametrically opposite, and fall directly into the abyss.

Reynard, Arka and the other four legendary warriors did not go back, they stayed on the site of the former Nolan outpost, waiting for the arrival of twenty Douqi warriors.

Lauren asked with some confusion, "Master Renard, what are we going to do here?"

Lei Ye trimmed his nails in a very boring manner, and replied: "Naturally, it is to save the villagers who are so dazed and ignorant. ”

Save the villagers?The four legendary warriors frowned at the same time, and Mark asked, "You mean that the demon might crawl out of that pit?"

Lei Ye snapped his fingers: "That's right, but there is no reward." ”

Everyone was speechless, Lauren frowned slightly, and couldn't help but wonder more in his heart: "Can you determine the time?"

Renard nodded with a serious expression, he took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, it was estimated that the Black Cavalry had returned to the territory, and in another two or three hours, twenty Douqi warriors would arrive smoothly.

He put away his pocket watch and said in a solemn tone, "It is estimated that the demon will appear tonight, no later than tomorrow night." ”

Larry was wiping his weapon, and when he saw what he said with such certainty, he couldn't help but look up and ask, "How can you be so sure?"

With a determined smile, Renard pointed to the sky and said, "Zeus, the god of thunder, told me last night. ”

The four of them were speechless again, this reason is too far-fetched.

Lei Ye saw their thoughts, and then stopped selling the lawsuit, and explained with a restrained smile: "Have you paid attention to the heavy rain in the previous two days?

Alka frowned and said, "It's very heavy, and it must have rained a lot, which is a rare heavy rainstorm in Cape of Horn for decades." ”

Renard tilted his head undeniably: "I looked at the cistern in the camp, and when we went, it was obviously less than two-fifths left, but it was full of water in just a few hours. ”

Lei Ye made an analysis from a meteorological point of view: "The rainfall this time is at least about 800 millimeters, which is an extremely rare heavy rainstorm. ”

Then he entered the physics lecture time: "Do you think that the weather has been hot and humid in the past two days, and the forest seems to be foggy, in fact, it is the sun that has turned the water in the forest into water vapor......

In the end, Lei Ye cut to the topic: "This rainstorm has caused many mudslides, and the entrance to the mine pit in the camp has collapsed, and most of it has been blocked by sediment, what do you say will be the other abandoned mine entrances that are unattended?"
