That night, Chen Jinsong pinched the letter in his hand and sat in the courtyard for a long time.

In the middle of the night, the light rain fell, he looked at the dark night sky with no stars in shock, he carefully folded the letter neatly, and then stuffed it back into the placket of his chest, he folded his hands on his chest and quickly walked through the rain, he opened the vermilion medicine box, carefully smeared the wound on his chest, he sat under the dim eaves, his expression was indifferent.

"Click—"

Huge lightning swept across the night sky, Hong Ling sat up from her sleep in shock, the sound of rain hitting the window lattice, crackling, as if ready to devour the person in it, Hong Ling swallowed her saliva, slowly moved her feet off the bed, put on her shoes, and came to the nearby window with a coat.

She slowly pushed open a small crack, and the wind poured in, Hong Ling suddenly became excited, squinted and shrunk her face and quickly closed the window, the weather changed too quickly, she shook the residual wind chill on her body, and quickly got into the quilt.

Fortunately, about an hour later, the sound of the rain gradually became a little quieter, and Hongling sighed slightly, and then fell asleep again......

The next day, the sky was still a little dark, and dark clouds were all over Xicheng, Chen Jinye got up early and came outside the house, and Lao Song was already waiting in the hall.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, woke up so early?"

"The weather is bad today, I'm just afraid of ......"

Hearing Chen Jinye's worries, Lao Song also sighed deeply, "According to the day, it is indeed the time of the rainy season", after that, the two were silent for a moment, and Lao Song said again: "His Royal Highness the Prince, my legs and feet are almost sharp, you can take me to the riverside in a while."

Chen Jinye bowed slightly, and after a while, the maid came to the hall with a hot breakfast, but Hongling woke up in the middle of the night because she didn't wake up until Chen Jinye and the two of them finished breakfast.

Chen Jinye watched the light rain outside gradually stop, so he hurriedly asked the maid to prepare the carriage, before leaving, he took a deep look at Hongling's room, she should have slept very sweetly, thinking about it, Chen Jinye evoked a gentle smile.

The carriage galloped in the hazy mist, under the continuous invasion of small water droplets, and soon arrived at the bank of the Xicheng River......

"Bai Ju, has the dam stone been repaired?"

"Lord Qiyu, the dam stone has been completely reset, it would be good to call two more people to strengthen it today"

Chen Jinye nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Lao Song, "Where is the canal you said a few days ago to dig it, let's take people there quickly."

Lao Song, who got the order, hurriedly picked up the guy, and led everyone to the path with a slight slope, Bai Ju looked at it a few more times, and asked: "Old Song is like this, is it really okay?" ”。

Chen Jinye stared at Lao Song's back silently, and after a while, he muttered: "If you don't come out to do it, I'm afraid it's too late", after that, Chen Jinye stood up and patted Bai Ju's shoulder, "Hurry up and strengthen the dam, the heavy rain will come in a while, and there will be no way."

Watching Bai Ju disappear on the riverside with two strong men, Chen Jinye paced out of the wooden house with his hands behind his back and looked into the sky, the sky was a little brighter at this time, but the air was still wet, Chen Jinye's heart couldn't help but burn, such a wet tide and cold weather often indicates the upcoming rainy season.

Whether or not everything can be done before that becomes a matter of great importance is a matter of human life, so every second counts.

——

When Hongling woke up, it was almost time for lunch, she opened her eyes dimly, saw that it was dark outside, and thought that she had gotten up early in the morning, so she left the room very slowly.

Out of the room, Hongling realized that it was not because she got up early, but because the sky was gloomy, but she only thought that she was sleeping a little late, so she beckoned the maid and said, "Isn't it early?" Why don't you go and wake up the prince? ”。

The two maids were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled, and said not funny: "Girl, the prince has already driven the carriage out of the city."

Hongling was stunned for a moment, and muttered to herself: "Why didn't he call me ......."

Stunned Hongling, walked through the corridor to the hall, the maid took the paper umbrella and went to the kitchen, after a while, the two came back with a fragrant meal, Hongling carefully looked at the meal for a while, and asked in a trance: "Is it noon now?" ”。

"Yes, Red Girl"

Hongling's little face flushed, and she hurriedly put down her chopsticks, scolding herself for being greedy in her heart, no wonder Chen Jinye would not take herself, I think it was because he slept too dead, he couldn't wake up, so he went by himself.

Hongling cleared her throat and asked again, "What about Old Song?" Why don't you call him to dinner? ”。

"Girl, the old Song craftsman went out of the house with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince this morning."

Hearing this, Hong Ling smiled dumbly, touched the bridge of her nose awkwardly, and then slowly pinched the chopsticks on the table, just when nothing happened, she quickly pulled the meal chop into her mouth, chewed it slowly, and soon passed the lunch time.

As soon as I put down the chopsticks, it was gloomy outside for a morning, and the wind began to blow up, and the wind poured into the hall, and the porcelain bowl on the table fell to the ground, breaking extremely cold.

Seeing this scene, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to close the door and window tightly, Hongling looked out the window with a slight frown, and asked, "This is... Is the rainy season coming? ”。

"Yes, girl, although the rainy season is a little late, it is still here"

Hong Ling looked sideways at the maid who was talking, but the sadness on her face was no less than herself, Hong Ling shook her head helplessly, and then sat back on the cushion in the hall, "The rainy season is coming, I'm afraid that this Xicheng will suffer again."

There was silence for a while, as if the two maids also expected everything that might happen in the next time, the sound of the rain outside the door became more and more exaggerated, and the wind howled more rampantly, it was obviously afternoon, but it was like night, the maid took out a candle from the drawer and lit it, only to dispel some of the darkness and horror.

I don't know how long later, suddenly, a strong man appeared outside the door, the maids were frightened, Hongling also swallowed saliva and pinched the jade pendant on her neck, the strong man slowly stretched out his hand and pushed the door open with a squeak.

The strong man's face was gloomy, with a bowl-sized scar on his face, and the wind poured in from the door with raindrops, but he walked straight towards Hongling.

Hongling took a few steps back in fear, pretended to be calm, and asked, "Who are you?" ”。

The strong man didn't talk, but kept marching in the direction of Hong Ling, until, forcing Hong Ling into a corner, he knocked Hong Ling unconscious with a split palm.

——

Under the ravages of the heavy rain, the canal that Lao Song had just dug was filled with rainwater, and everyone braved the heavy rain and dug wildly, they had to dig, otherwise the menacing rain would inevitably swallow them, because the dam was in danger of breaking again.

Originally, there were only three people on Baiju's side, but after the rainstorm came, Chen Jinye joined in, and it became four people.

Chen Jinye gritted his teeth and twisted the reins, dragging against the current like crazy, but the wind was howling, slapping the waves on the four people, Bai Ju's arm was already injured, and now the wound that was finally glued has been torn to pieces.

Blood gushed from the wound, and after a long time, Bai Ju was pale and dehydrated, ready to fall into the river at any time, and the four people who were already tied to a rope became more and more tragic with Bai Ju's loss of strength.

Originally, everyone didn't notice the blue and white on Bai Ju's face at all, the waves were too big, the wind was too strong, and the rain was too much, until Bai Ju fainted and was completely immersed in the water, Chen Jinye suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The three of them still took care of the dam stone, and dragged Bai Ju out of the water again and again, Chen Jinye saw his face, and quickly carried him to his back, and the two craftsmen on his side helped Chen Jinye all the way, supported Bai Ju, and returned to the shore with difficulty.

After entering the wooden house, Chen Jinye quickly tore the fabric of Bai Ju's arm, and everyone found that the tragic wound, now the wound on Bai Ju's arm was no longer bloody, and it was swollen and white by the river blister.

Chen Jinye was shocked when he saw it, he touched Bai Ju's wound, and the texture of Bai Ju's arm under his eyes was like a magnet soaked in water, hard and unshapely.

"Quick! Put him in the wagon! ”

With Chen Jinye's order, the two craftsmen hurriedly held the only small umbrella and put Bai Ju in the carriage, in order to prevent accidents, Chen Jinye left one craftsman to catch the carriage, and the other stayed and waited to report the situation to Lao Song.

Back to the palace, Chen Jinye carried Bai Ju all the way back to the house in the side courtyard, asked the maid to boil two pots of hot water, prepared a sufficient amount of gold sore medicine, and more importantly, picked the thistle in the courtyard in full amount, Chen Jinye handed the thistle to the craftsman and asked him to mash it out of the medicinal juice to prepare.

The maid brought the hot water into the room, and then Chen Jinye dismissed the maid, and the two craftsmen cut the clothes on Bai Ju's body and threw them on the ground, carefully scrubbed them with a towel, and then put them into the dry quilt.

After being prepared, Chen Jinye scalded the sharpest dagger in the drawer on the fire candle for a long time, until it was a little red, Chen Jinye aimed at Bai Ju's arm, one hand rose and fell, the craftsman caught Bai Ju's broken arm, Chen Jinye quickly sprinkled all the gold sore medicine on the severed limb, and applied a thick layer of thistle before bandaging it again.

This is a last resort, Bai Ju's arm has been soaked in water, and if he is forced to stay, it will inevitably kill him.

Chen Jinye sat down on the stool, exhaled heavily, and after a moment of relaxation, he slowly walked out of the room and instructed the maid: "Go and boil another pot of the previous recipe for replenishing blood."

But he saw the maid kneeling in front of him with a gloomy face, and said, "Lord, the red girl has been kidnapped."
