Chapter 32: Hail in April

In April, the clouds rose and the hail fell.

In the ten days after returning home, Ma Yue has been seriously learning the piano, reading, and practicing archery.

Since he was ashamed of himself in front of Wei Zhongdao during the Chinese New Year, Ma Yue later studied harder, especially Hanshu, and now he has read the whole book several times.

It's not just reading, Ma Yue's martial arts have not increased these days, but he has made great progress in bow and crossbow archery, the crossbow can shoot eight in ten in seventy steps, and the bow can shoot five in four in sixty steps, and what is even more commendable is that Ma Yue also practiced riding a bow, shooting nine out of ten in thirty steps.

Of course, this is only a hit, this target is about the size of a person, and it can only be said that it is shot, but which position is shot is random.

If his archery skills want to be accurate to the skull, heart, neck, etc., I am afraid that the bow and crossbow are only possible at thirty steps.

Still, the hard work paid off.

At that time, Ma Yue was stretching his bow in the courtyard, aiming at the arrow target eighty steps away to try his luck, when suddenly his shoulder was hit by the ice falling from the sky, and he tore off a strong bow with a sharp force, and the arrow flew not far away.

Then he didn't have time to react, but large and small hailstones crackled from the sky, and almost instantly, Ma Yue's body was hit by several hailstones of different sizes, and he almost jumped up in pain.

Almost instinctively, Ma Yue took out two rattan plaques from the weapon rack with a grunt, raised them above his head and ran towards the back house.

The rattan on his head was smashed by the hail of eggs, and his arm was numb, but Ma Yue was walking like flying under his feet, and he was anxious.

Mrs. Pei is okay, she weaves indoors when she has nothing to do, and most of the hail will not hurt her. But Cai Yan is different, Cai Yan always likes to read in the gazebo and play the piano in the courtyard, if suddenly hail smashes Cai Yan how good!

"Miss Cai, Miss Cai, you must be studying, don't play the piano, don't ......"

Against the ice lumps that fell on the top of his head, Ma Yue smashed the wooden door of the backyard like a gust of wind and rushed into the courtyard, and there was a big fog in the crackling sound all around, and the heavy rain began almost instantly, and the rain was dense and small, making the eyes white.

"Miss Cai! Miss Cai! ”

Xiao Guancheng's head Ma Yue roared and shook the hundred-step enemy army all attacked him, but now in this dense hail, his voice couldn't penetrate at all, not to mention Cai Yan, even he couldn't hear it clearly.

There was a crackling sound everywhere in my ears, and the hail smashed into the roof, shattering the tiles and tiles depicting the four gods, and sliding down the ramp and smashing them to the ground. The big tree in the courtyard was swaying in the wind and rain, the leaves were shattered in large patches, and the small branches were broken.

**I can't see anything clearly, Ma Yue ran to the place where Cai Yan usually plays the piano by feeling, and it was ten steps closer to seeing the guqin lying flat on the ground, and now the guqin has been smashed out of several holes, covered by dense hail, Ma Yue was even more shocked when he saw it.

The piano is here, doesn't it mean that Cai Yan is playing the piano just now?

Oh no, there is no shelter around here, and the visibility is so low, does Cai Yan know where to run?

Ma Yue is getting more and more anxious at the moment, he is afraid of this feeling that his sweetheart can't find it.

So, in the pouring rain of ice and snow, on the hail-covered courtyard of the back house of the Liang Mansion, a majestic man with a height of nine feet on his two broken shields roared on a rampage, but no one could hear it.

The pavilion was empty, and Ma Yue was calling Cai Yan's name in the pavilion alone, but there was no response, and no one could hear it.

The smashed piano was held in Ma Yue's hand, sitting cross-legged in the gazebo, the rattan card had been smashed to pieces, and many places in his back were smashed to pain, and he felt that it was already swollen, although the injury was not serious, but he was very embarrassed.

He couldn't go out to find Cai Yan anymore.

I could only pray to myself, and Cai Yan took advantage of the hail not big enough to get into which of the surrounding chambers.

Under the gazebo, the hail outside the four sides kept falling, and Ma Yue lived like a year.

……

Under the eaves of the main hall in the front yard, Ma Li's forehead was smashed by hail, and blood was flowing on the ground at the moment, and Ma Yu brought him water to clean his wounds. On the horsepower's right arm, although the feathers of Ma Yue's eagle are wet, there is no scar on the body under the protection of the horsepower.

With Cai Yan's support, Mrs. Pei walked over from the back house through the pavilion in the main hall, and hurriedly asked when she saw Ma Li's appearance: "Where is San Lang?" ”

Ma Li saluted and then said: "Mrs. Hui, as soon as I heard the ice chips, I ran out to find the master, but I couldn't find it, there was a strong bow broken by the master in the martial arts arena, and there was a shield missing on the weapon rack, and the master may have found a place to hide." ”

"Well, San Lang has a shield to protect himself, he should be fine, Yan'er, do you think San Lang will run to the door of the mansion to hide, where is it closer to the place where he shoots arrows."

Cai Yan didn't know where Ma Yue was, and there was a trace of worry in his heart, but now Pei's heart was anxious, so he said in agreement: "Madame, don't worry, Ma Jun should be avoiding the ice under the mansion gate, don't worry about it first, wait and see." ”

Pei Shi patted Cai Yan holding his arm, but his eyes looked through the layers of rain under the gate of the mansion not far away.

Suddenly, Pei Shi seemed to see a figure shaking under the mansion gate, and hurriedly said to Ma Yu: "Yan'er, do you see if there is someone under the mansion gate?" The old man just saw that there seemed to be a figure shaking under the door of the house, Ah Yu, Ah Yu, go find something to pick up your master! ”

Hearing this, Ma Yu hurriedly looked at the door of the mansion, and there seemed to be someone below, but ...... The master's figure is so mighty, but the figure is only about six feet, what's wrong with the master, is it squatting?

There is no time to waste at the moment, it is only right to bring the master first, Ma Yu hurriedly took a long shield from the house and put it on his head, and rushed out in the hail.

After a while, the figure got closer and closer, and when they got closer, they realized that this person was Ma Yue, and it was Cao Mengde of the Cao family who was short and unattractive.

Cao Cao abandoned the official because Liu Hong ordered the collection of palace repair money from all over the country, and later the imperial court recruited him to be the Taishou of Dongjun, he also refused, but now His Majesty has issued an edict to worship him as a councilor, Cao Cao has no choice but to come to Luoyang to take office. Who knew that he had just arrived in Luoyang and encountered hail, and saw Ma Yue's house hurriedly hiding in, but he didn't expect that just after coming over, a servant braved the hail to send a shield to himself.

Ma Saburo's family style is really good.

Cao Cao was obviously hit by hail a few times, and he looked a little embarrassed, and as soon as he entered the eaves, he bowed down and bowed to Mrs. Pei and said, "Cao Cao, thank you Madame for rescuing me, I was almost trapped under the gate of the mansion." After speaking, Cao Cao looked around and saw that Ma Yue was missing, and asked, "Madam, has San Lang not returned from following Master Shangshu to Youzhou?" ”

Saying that, seeing Cai Yan beside Mrs. Pei, Cao Cao then bowed: "Cao Mengde has seen Miss Cai. ”

Cai Yan was still in the mood to return the salute to him, but Mrs. Pei was not in the mood at all now, she just waved her hand and said, "Where can San Lang go if he is not under the mansion, don't smash San Lang with such a big hail." ”

Cao Cao only knew at this time...... They thought that it was Ma Yue who was hiding under the gate of the mansion, and Ma Yu was not going to pick them up at all.
