Chapter 169: The Night of the Rainstorm

Before they walked back to the town of Peace, there was a sudden rainstorm.

Originally, at a normal pace, they could return to the town of Peace before dark, but Pique's legs were not completely sharp, and even with the nobleman's cane, he could only walk slowly.

Normally, the rainstorm doesn't last long, and they rush into a small forest to take shelter. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the low, slender trees couldn't keep the rain out at all, and after hiding for a while, they were still watered.

There is no worse situation than now. The two of them did not discuss, and walked directly to the peaceful town in the rain.

Pique walked slower and slower, and Ryder could tell that his leg injury seemed to be getting worse.

When they saw the edge of the town, the entrance of the town, the brick path that had been walked hundreds of times, had already been covered by rain. They call this situation "Fa River" to describe the severity of the waterlogging. Having said that, the town's drainage system is still very constructive, but some people are low-lying, and no matter how many ditches are dug, they can't drain the rainwater in the house.

"Quick! go to Murrich's house, his house is the worst!" they heard shout as they walked into the town. The man was leading a donkey dragging a wooden cart with boxes and the like, presumably some of which were afraid of water. As he shouted, a group of young men with donkey carts hurried to the place he had spoken. They were all shirtless, with only a pair of linen shorts. There were twenty or thirty people in all, each of whom was followed by an empty donkey cart, and the road seemed congested.

"Let's get around. "We can't help now, at least go back and find out what is going on with my grandfather." He motioned for Ryder to pass through the crowd, and the young men leading the donkeys wiped the rain from their faces and moved forward.

"Aren't these two boys from the lumber yard to the north? What about your donkeys? The mayor of the town sent so many copper coins and arranged for everyone to make donkey carts to transport supplies. A young man with blond hair looked at Ryder and Peake, frowned and asked, "Why don't you complete the task assigned by the mayor?"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on the two people who had just returned to the town of peace.

Every year, half of the female donkeys in the town go to find the Big Blackfeet to match, so can she only ride other people's donkeys?

"I remember that they opened a carpenter's shop in Peace Square, and two days ago the mayor of the town had the carpenters shop in the town to make donkey carts, and I think his family was kept closed. ”

"His house sells aristocratic canes, I've seen them before, and they're all imitations!

"You can't say that, for when the thieves came, I remember they gave us magical sticks. ”

"What's the use? The horse thieves are all run away by the samurai of the mayor's family, and giving you the sticks is just to give you some psychological comfort, I didn't see these two yodelmen when fighting the horse thieves, and it wasn't all us Odin rushing forward. ”

I have to say that the group of young people driving the donkey cart in front of me are all Odin, all with blond hair and fair skin. It's no wonder that the average Yodelman family is poor, where can they afford donkeys, and Big Black Feet is the only inheritance left to him by Peake's adoptive father.

Silenced by a verbal blow and sneering, Pique had nothing to be angry about, and even when they brought up the topic of race, Pique wasn't as angry as he had been. After experiencing the test of life and death, and under the influence of Zhu Tian, he was almost able to be happy and angry. "Ryder, let's go. He could see that Ryder's face was not very good, and urged, "Let's go home and see how grandfather is doing." ”

"Phew, lowly yodelmans! will only evade responsibility! It will not work at all when it is critical!"

Ryder finally couldn't take it anymore, his eyes were as wide as plates, "You guys wait for me!" He stood in the middle of the crowd and shouted out the words that caught everyone's attention, "Whoever said that the Yodelman evaded responsibility, I will go home and lead the donkey cart out now!"

Belch...... Pique thought he was going to get into a fight with the guys.

The two men fled out of a sneer, and the joy of returning home was lost.

The only thing to be thankful for is that when they walked home, they found that the ground was still quite high and had not been flooded.

The door was not locked from the inside as usual, and it opened with a slight push, as if it had been reserved for them.

The two of them walked into the main building, slowly walked into the second floor, and quietly glanced into the bedroom.

"Grandfather is asleep. Ryder said, "Let's go down." ”

Zhu Tian spoke: "Ryder, don't take what those people said just now, since we were children, they Odin people have been bullying us, they are all a group of guys who have nothing to do, you are also very hard these days, hurry up and go back to sleep, tomorrow we will go to find Dolly together." ”

Ryder hummed softly, and the two of them had already walked out the door, and after going to the donkey shed to make sure that Big Blackfoot was asleep, he sent Pique back to the house.

Ryder walked out on his own and into the storage room at the back of the main building.

In the storage room, in addition to some various timbers that were raised high to prevent it from being soaked in water, there was also a broken wooden cart in the corner.

The plank cart lost a wheel, which is exactly Pique's masterpiece.

Peake had stood in the car and had Big Black Feet carry him down the hillside, sweeping over the ranks of the nobles and the hundreds of maidens and women who had greeted them. Afterwards, the perpetrators, Big Blackfoot and Peake, are missing, and it is Ryder who secretly tows the dilapidated donkey cart back to the house.

At this time, he looked at the cart, didn't know what he was thinking, was stunned for a moment, bent down, and slowly dragged the cart to the storage room.

Gradually, trying not to make a sound, he dragged the donkey cart into the production room.

Wiping the rain and sweat from his face, he exhaled slowly, turned around and found the toolbox, hemp rope, and some wood in the storage room.

The hard wood of the elm, which is the ideal wood for making wooden carts, takes the tools at his disposal from the toolbox, and he planes the wood to the best proportions, and compares it repeatedly......

The rain drowned out his voice in the studio, but Peake could still "hear" and "see" what Ryder was doing.

This guy is still so strong, and he has never been able to endure the discrimination of the Odin.

It has to be said that Ryder was a qualified carpenter, and an hour later, Peake saw him simply renovate the wooden cart.

The new wheels with the new hemp rope look a little jarring, but it shouldn't affect the delivery of supplies.

Peake didn't go out to help him, and when he got back from Joson, he was overloaded with his unhealed injuries, and when he got back to his house, he had to reopen and tie the planks from his legs, and then lie down on the bed.

With his mental strength, he saw Ryder take the reluctant big black foot out of the donkey shed, tie it to the wooden cart, and brave the heavy rain to walk out of the yard.

Dolly will be happy if she marries him, Peake thought silently, and then endured the faint pain in his leg and fell into a deep sleep......

In fact, this body has not rested for two days and one night, and when he sleeps, he deserves a good dream, however...... He's back in the abyss!

Falling, falling, falling endlessly, falling endlessly......

It was pitch black all around, like a black hole swallowing it.

It is not only one's own body that is swallowed up, but also light, sound, consciousness, and everything......

There are no dreams more terrifying than this falling dream.

The heart is torn by the gravitational pull of terror all the time, and no one can save themselves.

It's real, it's false.

What is real is the tension and fear of falling, and the false thing is that I know that this will eventually end.

But how long do you have to wait? If you don't face the bottom of the abyss, will you keep falling...... Or maybe you fall to pieces at the bottom of the abyss, as you did before, and find a pool of fire......

Just fall with it......

Nothing to look forward to......

"Pique......" An empty voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

It's both familiar and strange......

What is familiar is that he knows that the voice is coming from Ryder, but what is strange is that after he turns his head, he finds that Ryder is also falling!

He didn't wake up, and he also found Ryder in the nightmare!

The first two times I had this kind of dream, I was the only one......

"Peak......" the voice added, "where is this? ”

"Don't be afraid!" he remembered what the parrot had said to him, and hurriedly said to Ryder, "Face the abyss and you will wake up!"

"No, I'm scared! I'm in pain!" said Reed, fear.

"It's a nightmare, if we face the abyss, we'll wake up!Look, like me!" Peake turned his head to look at the bottom of the abyss, demonstrating to Ryder, who caught a glimpse of Ryder's eyes closed......

"Ryder, don't fall asleep, Ryder, open your eyes!" he shouted, waving his arms desperately in an attempt to catch Ryder, but he missed the ......

"Ryder!"

Zhu Tian shouted and sat up from the bed, the dry clothes he had changed into before going to bed had been soaked with cold sweat.

It was still dark, and he realized that he hadn't slept long, and the black hole was ...... He looked at everything that was familiar around him, familiar houses, and yet he didn't see anyone familiar.

Ryder...... Ryder......

A bad feeling welled up in my heart, and this feeling was strong and painful. With an anxious impulse, the tentacles of spiritual power rose into the air, passed through the roof, and flew straight into the air.

Over the town of peace.

With mental power, Peake looked down on everything.

The heavy rain was still majestic, but it couldn't block his mental power sense.

Between a group of donkey carts, surrounded by a group of Odin youths, he was horrified to see Ryder, whose face was covered in blood, lying in a pool of blood......
