On the ninth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, just the beginning of autumn, the temperature is still hot, there is no coolness, and it is even hotter than usual, the air is full of dullness, looking at its gloomy sky, I am afraid that it is going to rain.

There is a saying in the countryside that an autumn rain and a cold, but at this time, if you want to enter the coolness of autumn, it is estimated that it will take a while, and the temperature will not drop in a month or two.

Ah Qing has been staying at her grandmother's house for the past few days, and due to the hot weather, the house is too cramped, so she set up a tent in the yard and stayed.

Wu Dongdong woke up a few days ago, but his body was still a little weak and couldn't do heavy work, so he helped make some porridge and rice at his grandmother's house these days. Dazhu had already been sent home by Ah Qing, and there was nothing to do here, so let him finish the family's farm work before coming over.

In the middle, Ah Qing went back to the hospital to take a look at his father, his father was still unconscious, but according to Ah Qing's judgment, his father was due to brain damage that was too serious, and he was still gradually recovering, and he would not wake up for the time beingAnd now, the house is burned, there is nowhere to go, the best way is to stay in the hospital.

However, according to Ah Qing's judgment, his father had to lie in the hospital for about three months this time, so he could administer medicine and treatment, and before leaving, he used his internal strength to warm his father's muscles and flesh to prevent him from degenerating, and after looking for a doctor's advice, Ah Qing returned to the village, and his father had Wang Zheng arranged by the nurse to take care of him, but he didn't have to worry about it, seeing that Wang Zheng was so troublesome this time, Ah Qing secretly thought in his heart, when he had the opportunity, he would definitely repay him.

Today, on the ninth day of the seventh month, the sky has just been polished in the early morning, and the sky and the earth are still a little dark, and the foggy and humid are still pervasive.

Ah Qing turned over in the tent in the courtyard, reluctantly opened his eyes, the surroundings had begun to be a little transparent, seeing that there was no colorful morning glow in the eastern whiteness, the sky was still a little dark and dull, Ah Qing thought, today should be cloudy.

A large mass of gray-black clouds in the sky surged rapidly, and after a while, they came towards this side, rolling up a faint breeze all around, and soon a muffled thunder came from afar.

"It looks like it's going to rain. Ah Qing got out of the tent and quickly cleaned it up, this tent was made of oilcloth and tree trunks tied together, and a bed was placed in it, which could not stop too much rain and could be poured through quickly.

The sky was instantly overcast, and the clouds covered the surroundings as if it were night, followed by a continuous muffled thunder, which came from a distance more and more clearly.

Ah Qing cleaned up halfway, snap, snap, pop, the raindrops the size of beans fell, and in the blink of an eye, Ah Qing was drenched. The sight around was vast, and the eyes of the raindrops couldn't be opened, Ah Qing didn't have time to clean up the rest, so he quickly moved the bed into the house, left the tent in the yard, and hid under the eaves, shivering involuntarily from the cold, and quickly shook off the raindrops on his body.

"Ah Qing, this rain is falling fast enough, you hurry into the house and change your clothes, don't catch a cold." The grandmother put on a coat and opened the door and walked out of the house, yawning in her mouth, presumably just awakened by the sound of rain.

Ah Qing nodded, shook her wet hair, turned around and walked into the house, it was indeed a little cold.

Since Ah Qing was changing clothes in the house, Wu Dongdong walked out of the house, stood under the eaves, and quietly watched the rain curtain that was connected together.

Soon it rained so hard that there was not a single light to be seen in the sky, and it was raining so fiercely and unusually that knee-deep rain had piled up in the yard, but fortunately the threshold of the house was very high, otherwise the water would have flowed into the house.

Before Ah Qing's family, because the threshold was not too high, if the rain was too heavy, the father and son had to take a basin in the house to scoop water for a long time, tired and sweaty, and then the threshold was made higher with red bricks, so that it was better, and there was no rain flowing into the house, but if it was so heavy rain now, before Ah Qing's house, he still had to scoop water out, the rain was too big, and the threshold of his red bricks could not be stopped.

The water in the yard was knee-deep, and the water in the streets would definitely be even deeper, and even the crops in the fields were flooded a lot. But now I can't care about so much, this rain curtain has been connected, and I don't know when it will stop, this stagnant water will definitely be deeper after a while, and it is estimated that the surrounding puddles are now filled.

The thunder became more and more dense, as if someone had provoked the wrath of the sky, the roaring thunder frequently exploded in the ears, the bright white lightning frequently illuminated the surroundings, and in the blink of an eye, a gust of wind rose, making the rain stronger, and the raindrops hit the tiles and sent a crisp resonance.

The wind brought up by the rain curtain is very fierce, mixed with dense rain screens, it is like the end of the world.

Click, I don't know if the tree was broken alive, and the breaking sound was blown away by the wind before it could be heard.

The wind and rain blew so much that people couldn't open their eyes, the eldest grandmother and Wu Dongdong hurriedly turned around and went back to the house, even if it was under the eaves, this person couldn't stay, just for a short while, half of their bodies were soaked.

"This rain is so heavy, I'm afraid something unclean is coming out, this is God has sent thunder. The grandmother looked at the rain outside and the continuous thunder, and a trace of fear appeared on her face.

Ah Qing and Wu Dongdong both changed into clean clothes, looking at the frightened grandmother with a little doubt.

"Grandma, do you also think this rain is abnormal?" Ah Qing said, he also felt that this rain was too big, he had never seen such a heavy rain, so fierce, so violent.

The eldest grandmother nodded and sighed, as if she recalled something bad, and a look of fear appeared on her face.

"When I was young, I met once, the rain was really heavy, less than an hour, dozens of meters deep pit was filled with rain, the rain was so rainy, I couldn't see people, I had never seen such a heavy rain, at that time, I was eighteen years old and not out of the cabinet, that early that morning and a group of little sisters went to the crops to cut grass and feed the sheep, when I went home, there was a gust of black wind around the road, almost to blow people away, and then the raindrops fell on the rain, the raindrops were still sandwiched with ice bumps, smashed on the face and hurt, our five little sisters quickly ran to a melon shed next to the shelter to hide from the rain。 ”

The eldest grandmother recalled it, and seemed to have seen that scene, and her somewhat cloudy eyes instantly brightened.

Soon after entering the melon shed, the thunder was like rain, clattering and falling, the sound was continuous, he seemed to be hovering around us, the thunder bombarded our ears hurt, the white lightning flashed back and forth quickly around us, we were frightened at that time, for fear that the lightning would fall, and the rain was very heavy, the sky and the earth were dark, soon we were in the melon shed was flooded by the rain all the knees, we had nowhere to go, it was windy and cold, we five little sisters hugged each other to keep warm, we were about to hug each other, we suddenly found that there was a little girl among us at some pointCowering in the midst of us, none of us found out when she came in. ”

"The little girl is dressed very shabby, but very clean, the age looks similar to us, looks very beautiful, smiles very good-looking, like a fairy, I have never seen such a good-looking girl, we thought it was a neighboring village who girls also came here to shelter from the rain, we were many girls at that time were married before leaving the house, so some girls we don't know is also normal, so we didn't care. ”

"We five little sisters hugged each other, and this little girl was also very strange, and she kept hiding among us, and she said she was scared, so it was up to her. ”

"This little girl was cold, very cold, but at that time we were all cold, so we didn't care, we hugged for a long time, the rain never stopped, and the thunder and lightning became more and more rapid, giving people the feeling of some impatience, and some scruples. ”

"For I was the closest to the little girl at that time, and once the thunder sounded, I felt the little girl's body tremble once. ”

"But soon, I knew the reason, the thunder was like being ignited in an instant, and it exploded all around, and the rumbling sound was rolling in our ears, and the lightning was like an electric spark, and the eyes hurt like an electric spark, and suddenly a burst of white light flashed, and several of us felt that we were surrounded by lightning, and we were at a loss in front of us, and when we regained our sight, we suddenly found that the little girl who was surrounded by us just now was gone, and disappeared without warning, and we searched for a long time in the melon shed and did not find it, as if it had disappeared out of thin air, and several of us were very afraid”

We all wondered what was going on, but then the rain gradually stopped, the weather cleared, and the sun crept out, and then we ran home with the grass on our shoulders, and we didn't tell anyone about it. ”

"Later, we learned that the fortune teller said that the little girl was estimated to be a peerless demon who had achieved cultivation, and was punished by the thunder, and this demon in order to avoid the thunder, so he used the bodies of a few of our mortals to cover it, so that the thunder was afraid to land, you must know that killing innocent people is to reduce merit, and heaven and earth cannot damage mortals at will, so the thunder is so anxious and intensive, and then it should have found an opportunity to destroy the demons and gods. ”

"And today is like that day. ”
