Chapter 486: Visitor
The Feng family brothers and sisters and Qianqian began to have incidents, but there were still no changes in the other points.
The little black eyes squatted in a pavilion with green light, and the cat's face was full of unhappiness and disgust.
This kind of rainy weather is nothing short of torment for it!
Licking the hair on the tip of his tail that was a little wet from the rain, Xiao Hei looked at the pouring rain outside with a bitter and hateful gaze.
Even inside the pavilion, water droplets splash on the body from time to time, and the cat demon, who is not naturally fond of water, is shaking his fur while carefully paying attention to his surroundings.
"Chirp chirp—"
The big black furry ears shuddered suddenly, and it jerked its head to look at a flower bed in the distance, its tail flicking and slapping on the ground.
The place where it stays is a square in front of a large mall, because it is pouring rain, so there are no customers here, although the mall has not yet closed, but there are basically no other people in it except for the staff who have not yet left work.
A cat squatting in the pavilion in the distance went unnoticed, and the bird's cry, muffled by the sound of the rain, went unnoticed.
The little black nose twitched, and the heavy rain affected its sense of smell, so that it could not distinguish what was in the flower bed in the distance.
"Chirp-"
Two more chirps, and Xiao Hei licked his paws a little irritably, and looked up at the sky.
"Meow..."
A threatening meow escaped from its throat, and the creature that had been tossing in the distance fell silent.
Except for this small episode, nothing else happened on Xiao Hei's side.
There were no fluctuations in the direction of Arthur and Hu Renzi, and the situation was a little better than Ji Yue had expected.
This time, several people put their focus on the urban area of City B, and there is no way to take care of the farther places, and if something really happens, it can only be solved afterwards.
The water level of the Yongding Reservoir, which is more than an hour's drive from the city, has begun to rise slowly.
"Xiao Nian, bring me the umbrella, I'm going to worship the dragon god." Grandma Gong looked at the heavy rain outside, and a worry flashed on her old face.
"Grandma, don't go out this day." Gong Nian, who was writing something, looked up at the window and said with some disapproval.
The road was slippery in the rain, and now it is so dark, and walking in this muddy village is a very challenging thing for the elderly.
Because the rain was so heavy, even the big wolf dog named Huzi was lying in the room, and when he heard Grandma Gong's words, he raised his head and wagged his tail, looking a little excited.
Grandma Gong frowned and listened to the sound of rain outside, uneasy.
"No, I'll have to take a look." She got up from the wicker chair and grabbed the crutches on the side to look for the umbrella.
Gong Nian hurriedly put down what he was doing, ran to the house and took an umbrella out.
"I'll go with you." She walked over to the old man and took her arm.
"Tie Dan'er, you stay and watch the house." Grandma Gong glanced at her little grandson who was sitting on the side watching TV and said.
Tie Dan nodded, watching the martial arts movie being shown on TV with relish.
"Slow down." Gong Nian opened the umbrella and walked out first, frowned after feeling the rain outside, turned around and helped Grandma Gong to cross the threshold.
She understood her grandmother's thoughts. She has never seen such heavy rain since she was born, and it is reasonable for Grandma Gong to go to worship the dragon god.
"Wang!"
Seeing this, Huzi screamed excitedly, and rushed directly into the rain. It ran in front of the grandfather and grandson, wagged its tail and glanced back at them, and then ran towards the Dragon Temple.
Unlike cats, which are naturally afraid of water, most dogs like water, and the tiger is very happy to run around and soon disappear.
"Such heavy rain... I'm afraid God is angry..."Grandma Gong is getting old, she walked very slowly under Gong Nian's support, the muddy water on the ground caused her a lot of trouble, and a pair of cloth shoes were also wet.
"Don't think about it, yesterday's forecast also said that there will be rain today, maybe it's a little bit heavier for us." Gong Nian held an umbrella in one hand and his grandmother in the other, and half of his body was already wet with rain. By the light of the flashlight in the old man's hand, she looked up at the Dragon Temple not far ahead. It was so dark that she could only see the outline of the temple.
For some reason, she always felt a little uneasy.
The two cautiously came to the Dragon Temple, and the old man walked directly to the front of the Dragon God Statue and knelt down on the futon, regardless of the rain-soaked clothes on his body.
With a babbling prayer in her mouth, Grandma Gong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Nian, come here." She suddenly called out to her granddaughter, who was standing in the doorway.
Hearing this, Gong Nian obediently walked over, knelt down beside Grandma Gong, and looked up at the dragon god statue with a very respectful gaze.
The Gong family has been guarding the dragon god for generations, and although she has been educated in materialism, she is still full of respect for the dragon god. Regardless of whether the dragon god really exists or not, but at least it is the belief of the Gong family.
Seeing Gong Nian like this, Grandma Gong nodded with satisfaction.
"Grandma has been guarding this thing for a lifetime, and it's time to hand it over to you." As she spoke, she took off the coiling dragon pendant she was wearing around her neck and handed it to her under Gong Nian's somewhat surprised gaze.
"Grandma, what are you...?" Gong Nian was a little puzzled, she saw the old man's serious face, and asked with some hesitation.
"Xiao Nian, you remember, protecting the Dragon God is not only our family's responsibility, this is also what we should do in order to atone for our sins." Grandma Gong saw her granddaughter carefully put on the necklace and nodded with satisfaction.
"I understand, don't worry." Gong Nian did not disappoint her grandmother, she looked at the dragon-shaped pendant in her palm seriously, and then put it inside her clothes.
"Let's go, Tie Dan'er should be in a hurry when he is home alone for a while." Grandma Gong prayed to the idol for a while, and then stood up with Gong Nian's support.
The grandfather and grandson walked the same way home.
Huzi, who had been bouncing nearby, still ran home one step ahead of the two, and when the two of them walked to the gate of the courtyard, they heard the sound of wolf dogs barking wildly towards the courtyard.
The tiger's cry was very fierce, and it stood at the gate of the courtyard, baring its teeth inside, looking ready to attack at any moment.
"Oops!" Gong Nian was taken aback.
Huzi only calls it this when there are living people, and at this time it is clearly looking in the direction of their house, and at this time there is only his younger brother Tie Dan alone in the room!
Stuffing the umbrella into the hands of Grandma Gong, who was also anxious, Gong Nian rushed directly into the heavy rain and ran towards the yard.
