Chapter 58: Heavy Rain

First a flash of lightning streaked across the night sky, then a thunderclap. Although the www.biquge.info of the pen and the fun pavilion were far away in the sky, the loud sound seemed to be firing a salute in people's ears, and it exploded so that people's hearts skipped a beat. The neighing of the law came and went, and the horses shook their heads and tails, and stopped moving, and no matter how the coachmen whipped, they refused to take a single step, and crouched slightly on all fours, as if they were to be frightened by this rare lightning and thunder. In fact, if it weren't for the docile tame of these horses, and the fact that these coachmen were accustomed to the cart and the old way of taming the horses, the horses might have been stimulated, and would have pouted their hooves and frightened and uncontrollable.

The coachmen struggled to soothe the frightened horses, and from time to time they cried out in the same way, lest the beasts should become confused and alarm the nobles in the chariot. A few more coolies were driven out of the car by the steward, and they were holding the reins in the mud, hoping to get the convoy moving again, after all, they were not far from the City of Radiance, and there was no place to stay in this wilderness, which was really inconvenient.

This is undoubtedly a drudgery that can not be more bitter, the coolies are wearing raincoats, and the rickety figures in this miserable wind and rain are even more miserable, with trembling bodies, blue lips, and even shouting trumpets are weak. Occasionally, it was mixed with soft abuse, and the voice was as small as a mosquito and fly, for fear that the steward would hear it, and gather together to buzz, and it was covered by the heavy rain and did not reach his ears: "This black-hearted Wang Ba, in order to please the master, drove us out to sell our lives, and let the dogs eat their conscience." There are also some unbearable foul language such as bitch, bitch, etc., it seems that as long as you scold it, your heart will be a little hot, and the heavy rain is not so difficult, no way, these coolies who have signed a long contract can only use this method to talk about **.

The steward can't scold loudly, but this god can scold casually, Xu feels that scolding the steward softly is not enjoyable enough, and the scolding such as "thief God" is also louder, the more he scolds, the more enjoyable he is, the more he scolds, the more energetic he is, and he gradually replaces the sound of the trumpet, so that these men who are happy in the bitterness have a feeling of raising their eyebrows.

Pray to the heavens when you are lucky, point to the heavens and scold when you don't go well, go against the heavens when you struggle, and conform to the will of heaven when you cultivate. Therefore, this God is so innocent, allowing people to knead and pat like dumplings, and fiddle with them at will, which is really hard work.

It's just that God doesn't mean to complain, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier, as if there is a lack of horns on this day, and the water in the sky and the Milky Way has been dumped into the world, and people often say that the pouring rain is nothing more than that. The rain fell to the ground with a dense crisp sound like the beat of countless snare drums, beating the earth and beating on people's hearts.

For a while, the scolding of the coolies was covered, and the rain fell heavily on people, like a small hammer constantly slapping different parts of the body, which made people feel painful, and the chill of spring was like spring rain silently soaked into people's bones.

Obviously, it was daytime, and the carriage traveled on the road leading directly to the City of Divine Radiance, but there was no one on the road, and no matter how much the greedy ghost fell into the eyes of money, he would not go out of the city to do business in this kind of ghost weather. The wide, straight avenue was deserted, and the convoy of the Western Border Comptoir was parked in the middle of the road, looking a little pitiful, as if abandoned by the whole world, lonely and helpless.

Al heard the scolding outside the car, opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and his face sank. shouted at the top of his voice, "Davis!", a man drenched like a chicken in soup answered, and ran over in embarrassment, looking at his soft bones, completely lacking the majesty of Fang Xuan when he commanded the coolies just now.

Al frowned, "What's the matter, who made you force these coolies to work in the rain, such a heavy rain, these people have to freeze, let them go back and change into clean clothes." The steward had a bitter face, knowing that this time he was afraid that the horse would be slapped on the horse's leg, so he had to show his loyalty: "Isn't this afraid of delaying the young master's entry into the city, young master, you are merciful, and you can't bear to see them suffer, so I'll go over and handle it." As he spoke, he turned around and rushed into the rain.

After a while, there was a cheer, and a few faint voices of praise could be heard from Young Master Al, who knew that the steward was deliberately proclaiming his virtues, and wanted to flatter himself in this roundabout way, so as not to be punished.

"The foundation is still not strong, and there are not enough people. Al thought silently, the old butler was forced by him to live in a carriage, such a heavy rain, Al really couldn't bear it, and he didn't worry about letting his old bones come in the wind and go in the rain, after all, Shegeman was no longer the cavalry who was young and strong and could fight for a day and a night. Sasha and Freeman live in another carriage, which is why Al saw that the father-son relationship was a bit awkward, so he made this arrangement, hoping that a period of intimacy would improve their relationship.

"They all say old children, old children. Old Scheegman is also like a child, is there a nobleman like me in the world? I have to take care of the elderly, and I have to close the family situation of my subordinates, is it easy for me? Al is a little self-sorry and a little proud, saying that there is a word to describe this on the earth, which is called to enhance corporate cohesion and give employees a sense of belonging.

Thinking of this, Al couldn't help but sigh a little, except for a few people at hand, there were no more competent people around him. The Westside Trading House had just been established, and the old men of the Spalletti family stayed in the Westside to be busy with the construction of the trading bank's headquarters, and they didn't bring it with them. Al came to the City of Divine Radiance this time, it can really be said that he broke into the world with his bare hands, and finally became the tallest of the short people, the steward named Davis was smart and clever, and he was so old that he wanted to cultivate it. Unexpectedly, he was too smart, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, fearing the strong and bullying the weak, which made people disappointed.

Al lay lazily in the carriage, quietly thinking about all sorts of trifles. It's just that the rain outside the window crackled non-stop, interrupting his train of thought several times, which made people so unhappy. Al opened the curtain again in annoyance, and simply curled up the curtain to admire the rare rainstorm. It is said that in the western realm, he has only seen the wax statue of Yuanchi, the snowy blizzard, and he has never seen such a heavy rain, and it is not interesting to see it today.

The whole convoy was silent, everyone was tormented by the heavy rain and lost their strength, and they didn't bother to speak, so they seized the time to rest and recuperate their spirits to cope with the next journey. I only heard the sound of rain in the heavens and the earth, and the sound was urgent and noisy, but there was no sense of excitement and noise, on the contrary, it brought people coldness and loneliness, sorrow and sorrow.

Some voices can make people shout, while others can only make people silent.

However, in the quiet sound of the rain, a sound of horses' hooves suddenly came, breaking through the rain and breaking through thoughts.
