Mei'er lowered the curtain, a pair of small hands rubbed back and forth on the outer wall of the stove, and stood in the wind and rain for a while, although there was an oil-paper umbrella to shield the wind and rain, but the hem of the dress and the sleeves of the robe were inevitably splashed.

The spring cold is steep, the wet clothes cover the skin, and she can't help but feel cold, she motioned to Cui Xi to take the fox fur cloak and drape it on her body to keep out the cold.

The stove was warm, and soon the slightly cool hands were warmed, Mei'er took a breath and said in a low voice: "Second brother, today's rain is really strange, I have never seen such a heavy rain during the Qingming Festival." ”

Luo Junxi listened intently to the sound of the wind and rain hitting the outer wall of the carriage for a while, and crackled like a stone violently impacted, and couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, looking at the anxiety on the girl's face, he smiled and said: "Such a strong wind and rain, the second brother is also the first time to see it, don't be afraid, our carriage is very strong, forgive this wind and rain can't help it, it won't take an hour, and the rain will stop." ”

Mei'er glanced at Cui Xi and Lan Shu, who were sitting at the bottom, these two little maids have grown up with them since they were children, except for their father and brother on weekdays, they are the closest to them, their dresses are also wet, their faces are a little pale, they are snuggling up to each other and shivering, thinking that it is cold.

Mei'er handed the stove in her hand to Cui Xi and said, "My hand is warm, you two take turns to hug for a while!" ”

After saying that, she glanced sideways slightly and glanced at her second brother Luo Junxi.

Luo Junxi raised his thick eyebrows, laughed, handed the stove in his hand to the sister-in-law, and said, "The second brother doesn't need this thing, the one in your hand is given to the two of them, then use the second brother!" ”

Mei'er smiled, took the stove, she looked at the car curtain, and said, "Laiwang stays outside alone, the wind is too strong, it's better to call him in to take shelter from the wind and rain!" ”

Luo Junxi's face was pale, he stretched out his hand to lower the curtain of the car, and said solemnly: "No, men and women don't kiss, he is just a rough subordinate, how can he sit in the car with you and spread it, wouldn't it tarnish the reputation of Miss Luo's family?" ”

Mei'er pouted and said in a low voice: "My sister just saw that the wind and rain outside were too strong, for fear that Laiwang wouldn't be able to stand it, what does this have to do with reputation?" ”

Luo Junxi saw her expression, knowing that her sister was kind-hearted, and she was also very sympathetic to her subordinates in the mansion on weekdays, and she couldn't see her subordinates suffering and being scolded, so she comforted her and said: "Laiwang is born in martial arts, and his body is stout, what is such a natural wind and rain?" Besides, he is covered with a rain canopy and there is a canopy outside the carriage, no matter how fierce the rain is, it will not hurt him, so you should stay in the car and wait for the rain to stop! ”

Mei'er well, since the second brother said clearly, she is inconvenient to insist on her own opinion, the four of you sit in the car and you stare at me, I stare at you, quite bored, simply half-squinted and rested, after more than half an hour, the wind and rain outside became more violent, Mei'er opened the water pupil, gently opened the car curtain and looked out, the rain did not stop, but became heavier and heavier.

The wind carried raindrops into the car, and the warm carriage suddenly became cool, and Luo Junxi and the two little maids opened their eyes.

"Second brother, you see, this rain is getting more and more fierce, and the water is pouring down the slope, will it flood my mother's grave?"

Luo Junxi was also a little worried, he leaned in front of the car window to look for a while, but the rain was really too heavy, and he couldn't see anything except the curtain of water splashed down like a waterfall.

"Second son, second son!"

Laiwang, who was sitting outside the eaves, called urgently.

Luo Junxi leaned forward, looked out of the car, and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Lai Wang pointed to the curtain of water in the sky, and his voice trembled a little: "Second son, you see, the rain is like this, I am afraid that it will cause landslides to fall, although the terrain here is high, but it is only in the middle of the mountainside, once the heavy rain washes down the mud and stones above, it is bound to rush to this side, how is this good?" ”

Luo Junxijun's eyebrows were furrowed, Laiwang's words were true, but now that the rain is falling, the road down the mountain may have already been extremely waterlogged, and the wind is whistling, I am afraid that there are a lot of trees on the road, the rain and fog are blind, and the carriage is running on the mountain road in the torrential rain, which is more likely to have accidents.

He muttered: "Now I can't do anything, it seems that God is not in a good mood today, this rain buckets are poured down, the mud will definitely be loose, but we are in a place with many trees, the root system is widely planted, and the water flows low, although the rain is strong, this treatment should be safe, it is better to be still, we still wait here for the rain to stop before making plans!" ”

Laiwang looked left and right, what the second son said was also reasonable, now it is more dangerous to drive down the mountain, except for this dirt slope, it is indeed impossible to find a better foothold, he gathered the canopy, and said: "What the second son said is true." ”

A fierce wind swept the raindrops into the carriage, and the raindrops of beans hit his cheeks with a faint pain, Luo Junxi gasped, today's celestial phenomena are indeed abnormal.

Suddenly, a few loud sounds were heard, and several trees as thick as the thighs of a strong man were broken by the wind and fell down, and the master and servant outside the carriage just screamed badly, and the treetops had already clicked across the roof of the carriage, and the carriage shook a few times.

There were several exclamations in the car: "Second brother"

Luo Junxi's face changed, and he kicked away the broken branch resting on the wheel, in front of the awe-inspiring power of heaven and earth, he, a handsome and worldly son who was comfortable in the business sea, could only stare dryly, helpless.

"Little sister, don't be afraid, the wind broke the tree, you sit tight, I'll drive the car to the other side."

He picked up the whip and threw it at the red-maned horse, but the two horses had already been drenched by the rainstorm, and the whip went down, but he pricked up his ears and shook off the rain on his head, Luo Junxi was anxious, and shook it off with another whip, and the red-maned horse reluctantly raised his front hooves and took two steps forward, without the protection of the dense canopy, the heavy rain suddenly blinded the eyes of the people and horses, and the red-maned horse let out two sad neighs, and retreated under the big tree.

"The second son's rain is too strong to walk."

Luo Junxi smiled bitterly, threw the horsewhip back to Laiwang, and said: "Since we have come, we can only stay under this tree, Laiwang, move the car a little, and don't lean on the side of the broken tree." ”

Laiwang lifted the reins, turned the horse around with all his might, and pulled the carriage down behind the tree.

The car had just stopped behind the tree, and Luo Junxi was about to open the curtain to comfort his sister, when Laiwang next to him screamed violently: "What is this?" ”

There was a smell of nausea in the wind, Luo Junxi looked back, only to be frightened, and opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't shout a word.

Out of the white rain and mist appeared a large brown-gold python as thick as a basin, most of its body was wrapped around the big tree, its huge head hung down, and a pair of round eyes glowing with cold light were staring coldly at the carriage under the tree.

The two red-maned horses raised their front hooves in panic and neighed in fear, and the python's head turned to the startled horse, and its large mouth with its fangs exposed neighed out, and the red-maned horses seemed to be frightened and stupid, and the red-maned horses stood still.

Luo Junxi's face was dripping with cold sweat on his back, and he picked a tree to shelter from the rain, seeing that this tree was lush and lush, thinking that it could block the wind and rain, but who would have expected that this place would be a snake's nest.

It's just an ordinary snake, but this snake is a little too big.

Lai Wang's face turned pale with fright, and he leaned over and bowed to the python, and said in a trembling voice: "Second son, this is a divine dragon, a divine dragon!" Get down on your knees and kowtow."

The head of the python slowly approached the carriage, and the long snake slurred, and the sticky saliva on it could be vaguely seen hanging down like honey.

Luo Junxi leaned against the carriage motionless, and a small green hand stretched out in the carriage, and it was the girl who was tugging at his robe.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you, it's windy outside, come in"

Luo Junxi held her sister's hand hard with her backhand, Luo Meier felt abnormal, and looked out from the gap in the car curtain and couldn't help screaming.

"Little sister, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid......"

Luo Junxi comforted the girl in his mouth, but the whole heart was already shaking, today is the day to worship the deceased mother, and there is no sword around him, but even if he has a sword in his hand, what then? This snake is so big that an ordinary sword is only afraid of ten cuts, and I am afraid that it can only pick off a few scales.

Now the whole carriage is the target of the python, and as long as the snake hits its head, the carriage will definitely fall apart immediately.

He lamented in his heart: "I can't imagine that my brother and sister will die in the belly of the snake today."

The brown and golden python's cold eyes were like sharp long swords, looking fixedly at this group of uninvited guests with panicked expressions.

The sound of the wind and rain became more and more intense, and the big tree was blown to a loud noise, and suddenly the python let out a hoarse roar, stretched its head forward, and crashed into the carriage.

There was no doubt that the whole carriage flew straight out of the rain and fog like a kite off the line, and several women's frightened cries were heard from inside the carriage, and the sound was instantly annihilated in the whirring wind and rain.

Luo Junxi and Lai Wang were surrounded by the huge snake head, and the bones rolled down the dirt slope, and the wind and rain poured into their mouths, only to feel that all the internal organs were soaked in ice water as if they were uncomfortable, Luo Junxi just shouted: "Little sister, where are you?" His head hit a broken tree trunk, and his eyes were dark, and he immediately fainted.

The brown-gold python quickly slipped down from the tree, and the fat snake body frightened the broken carriage and the two horses, and the red-maned horses that had been petrified on the ground rolled and twisted, and the sound was incessant, and the carriage and the horse had been twisted into several pieces.

The python didn't seem to have relieved his hatred, and the long tail slapped the big tree around him hard, and after more than ten shots, the big tree slammed and broke into two sections.

The python rushed into the rain mist like a ghost, the smell of fish scattered in the wind, and its brown and golden snake shadow loomed in the white rain mist, as if it was looking for something.
