Chapter 792: Tree Hole
As Venerable Ling Xiao said, he really committed a peach blossom crime, but he had five disadvantages and three shortcomings. can only see if we can solve this catastrophe in the end.
Yang Xianmao said to the county lord of Bai Zhi again: "Your clothes are wet, do you want to take them off, wring them out and hang them on the tree, and dry them, we don't have any fire here." ”
In fact, in addition to the raging flood below, there is still a sun in the sky. Although the sun is not large and is covered by thin clouds, the temperature is still relatively high. If you dry your clothes on the bushes, you may be able to dry them in a while.
The county lord of Bai Zhi made a face, and suddenly became ashamed like a red cloth, glanced at Zhuo Ran, and said, "I won't show it, it's good like this." ”
Of course, Yang Xianmao knew why she didn't dry her clothes, so she thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, it's safe here, you just stay in the bushes behind the stones and put your clothes on the bushes." I'm under the stone, and the stone is holding me out, and I can't see you in any way. Besides, when we go back, I'll go to the door and ask for a kiss. After getting married, you will be my mother, what else is there to avoid?"
Yang Xianmao's previous arrangement had already made the county lord of Bai Zhi a little moved, and the latter sentence destroyed her last line of defense. So he glanced at Yang Xianmao, nodded and said, "Then you are not allowed to come up, otherwise I will hit you with a stone." ”
Yang Xianmao said: "Although I look like a disciple, I am still a gentleman. ”
Saying that, Yang Xianmao stood up and walked around under the stone, glanced back at her again, and hid under the stone.
Yang Xianmao took off all the clothes on his body, wrung them out and dried them on the bushes. Wait quietly for them to dry.
Yang Xianmao wanted to know where Fei Shuyun and them were now, but he couldn't get in touch with them. And now it's up to you to decide where to go after the robe is done. You can't stay here, you don't have anything to eat or drink here, and once you wait until the sun goes down, it's going to be troublesome.
Yang Xianmao was thinking crankily in his head, and from time to time he was talking to the county lord of Bai Zhi who was hiding behind the bushes on the boulder, he wanted to let the other party know his specific location and let the other party not be afraid. chatting with Yang Xianmao made Bai Zhi's heart relax.
After about an hour of sunbathing, Yang Xianmao felt that his clothes were already half-dry. So he said to the lord of Bai Zhi on the boulder, "Let's put on our clothes first, and then climb over this mountain to see if we can find the way." We have to find a way or a house before it gets dark, otherwise it's not safe after dark. ”
Of course, the county lord of Bai Zhi understood that what Yang Xianmao said was very reasonable, she didn't want to stay in this terrifying canyon for a moment, and wanted to leave here as soon as possible and find her way back. It's just that if Yang Xianmao said so before, of course she wouldn't be willing. Because the body is wet, it is not only very uncomfortable to walk, but also exposes the curves of the body. Because of the hot weather, the clothes are already very thin. But now listening to Yang Xianmao say this, of course, he is in the middle of it. So the leader of Bai Zhi hurriedly agreed, hurriedly put on his dress, and told Yang Xianmao that he was ready, and Yang Xianmao went on the boulder and took her to the top of the mountain.
The flood had already covered more than half of the hillside, and they were going up, not much distance, and soon climbed to the top. The two of them stood on the top of the mountain, looked into the distance, and were immediately very happy. For not far away, they could see a post road. Winding past the opposite hillside. This must be the same post road they had passed through when they had come earlier.
Yang Xianmao and Bai Zhi were very happy and decided to start descending the mountain, because the post road was on the mountainside part of another mountain, and they had to go down this mountain before they could go up to the opposite official road.
When going down the mountain, the county lord of Bai Zhi couldn't help but take Yang Xianmao's hand and go down, when he went up the mountain just now, the county lord of Bai Zhi had not done this, which made Yang Xianmao slightly surprised. Maybe it's just at the beginning, so the county lord of Bai Zhi is still a little shy, and wants to calm down by keeping a distance, and observe whether the half-dry dress will expose the curves of the body.
After they climbed to the top of the mountain, the county lord of Bai Zhi found that the half-dry dress was basically wrapped in a graceful figure, and she was relieved. When she went down the mountain, she saw Yang Xianmao's concern for her, and her heart warmed, so she boldly reached out, took Yang Xianmao's hand, and walked through the woods and bushes together, heading down the hillside.
When they finally descended to the bottom of the mountain and continued to climb, and when they began to climb the opposite mountain, they found that the sun had set below the high peaks. It turns out that most of the time has passed, and it is now nearly dusk. The two involuntarily quickened their pace and climbed upward.
Yang Xianmao did not propose to climb up with the county lord of Bai Zhi, because although the two had a skin-to-skin relationship before, it was at a critical juncture, in order to save his life. And now, in order to climb the slope, they are still hugging each other, which is probably unacceptable for a prince's daughter.
Yang Xianmao fully understood the truth of wanting to be captured, so he endured it and did not propose to climb up with her in his arms, although this would be much faster.
By the time they reached the post road, the sun had already set below the mountain, and only the afterglow filled the sky.
It was hard for both of them to imagine that in such good weather, such a terrible flood would suddenly fall and almost take their lives.
The two of them walked along the post road, but soon they learned that the so-called good weather was really just the darkness before dawn. Because they had not been gone long ago, it began to rain, and it became heavier and heavier.
Yang Xianmao and the others hurriedly walked forward, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain. Suddenly, Yang Xianmao noticed that there was a big tree on the outside of the road. This tree can't be hugged even by more than a dozen people, and the lower part of the tree is hollow, as if there is a tree hole, so Yang Xianmao pulled the county lord Bai Zhi, and the two went down to the depths of the tree hole to hide in.
The hole was still half a foot from the ground, so although the rain became heavier and heavier, and finally it became a torrential rain, and the ground began to flow with water, but they hid in the half-foot-high hollow, and did not have to worry that the water would drown them. Although the hole in the tree is very large, the space is still a little crowded after two people get in. However, in this dark tree hole, of course, the county lord of Bai Zhi was naturally lying in Yang Xianmao's arms, so that it could be a little looser.
The two of them were talking in the hollow of the tree, listening to the heavy rain outside. Even if it was dawn, the two of them would not feel so bored.
The rain outside had turned into a downpour, and there was a faint sound of thunder. This reminded Yang Xianmao of the 10,000-foot tall dark cloud he encountered when he flew in on the Dapeng bird, could it be that the cloud had already shifted to their location?
It was quickly confirmed that it was raining too much. The tree hole of the Yang Xianmao is facing the valley, and the water rushing down from above bypasses both sides of the tree and flows towards the mountain pass, like a lake on a slope.
At this time, the whole slope was full of water, and under the light of lightning that appeared from time to time, a large amount of water could be clearly seen, and it was like an army of thousands of horses, rushing towards the bottom of the valley.
Seeing such a water potential, the county lord of Bai Zhi was a little panicked, and asked Yang Xianmao: "With such a heavy rain, will the flood that washed down drown us?"
Yang Xianmao shook his head and said, "Probably not, we are on the slope, and there is a post road behind us." If there's any danger here, we can move to the post road right away. Besides, it's still quite a distance from the deep ditch below, so don't worry.
However, what Yang Xianmao said proved that he was actually too optimistic, and in fact, what was going to happen, after a few years, would still make Yang Xianmao feel frightened every time he thought about it.
As the rain became heavier, the branches around their hollows seemed to be submerged in the water rushing down from the mountain. Yang Xianmao found that they had no way to transfer to the post road, or they were afraid that it would not be safe on the post road.
Because the water washed down from the hillside, the amount of water is too large. Some small trees were uprooted, and outside their tree holes, there was already a stream of water more than a foot deep, which was rushing down in a hurry, and because of the large slope, the water was flowing very fast. In such a situation, as soon as they came out of the tree hole, they would be swept away by a flood more than a foot deep that rushed down.
Yang Xianmao could not have imagined that they still could not escape the encirclement and suppression of this terrible flood. And at this moment, they felt the ground tremble, as if some huge monster was approaching them. The county lord of Bai Zhi became nervous and hurriedly hugged Yang Xianmao. Turning his head to look at the black hole outside the tree hole, there was only a rainy night.
The terrible noise finally came to them, and although they were hiding in the hollow of the tree, they felt that the monster was speeding past them with terrible and swift speed. With lightning flashing in front of them, they were horrified to find that it was not a monster. Rather, the valley opposite the raging flood, like a flood beast, washed over both sides of the valley, and the flood had reached only a few feet away from them.
Seeing this scene, the county lord of Bai Zhi hugged Yang Xianmao tightly in fright and said, "Let's go quickly." ”
Yang Xianmao said: "The water outside is too fast, and this rain is so heavy, if we go out, the water flow on the ground outside is too fast, and it is very likely that it will be washed down." I just saw that this valley was not quite the same as our previous canyon. The valley is relatively wide, so even if there is a flood, it is unlikely that there will be a flood of the terrible height that we have encountered before, so let's take a look first. The tree is so big that we can climb it even if the flood water reaches us. The tree grows very tall, and the higher it goes, the more space the valley has and the more water it can hold. The flood water is not rising so fast that it can threaten our position, don't worry. ”
Yang Xianmao's judgment was correct this time, the flood rose a few more zhang and then stopped, still a few zhang away from them, but they could feel the terrifying momentum of the flood.
This terrible flood rained down for an hour, and seemed to pour out all the rain from heaven into the woods in one hour.
