Chapter 8 is relieved
"That mountain temple is gone!" the bald man who was holding the box sighed heartily.
Everyone stared at the crazy mudslide, and their hearts looked heavy.
"Okay, don't look any further, let's go!" Qiao Xiaojing wiped the rain from her forehead, patted the jade lightly, and tugged at the leopard's sleeve.
"Let's go," the leopard reacted at this time, nodded at Qiao Xiaojing, turned to the others and shouted, "There should be a village around here, let's go to the villager's house to take shelter from the rain first, if you get drenched like this, you will get sick sooner or later, let's go quickly!"
"Let's go," Mitsuko, who was at the forefront, also shouted, "Brothers and sisters are all following, the road is slippery in the rain, watch your step, concentrate on the road, don't fall behind......"
"Joe's group," said the leopard with a smile as the group began to hurry, "you are a blessing to all of us, and if you had not been here today, I think we would have all gone to see Marx." ”
"How can you say so evil?" Qiao Xiaojing shook her head and said lightly, "I, like everyone else, am an ordinary warrior, how dare I be a lucky star." Even if I'm not here today, these soldiers of ours are the backbone of the industry, and they are very vigilant, and they will naturally go out to observe when they hear abnormal noises.
"Comfort us!" said the leopard, shaking his head, "and we all know what the truth is. The mudslide was nothing like anything else, and when we heard the dull sound, unless we all gave birth to wings and flew away in an instant, there would be no chance of escaping, and it would have been the same as the mountain temple. ”
"I've heard of mudslides before," Cuiyu said with trepidation, "I've never seen it with my own eyes, but this time it's really eye-opening." This thing is terrible, more terrible than the flood, and the flood will probably destroy the mountain temple, and the mudslide has swept a house into it, leaving not even a foundation behind......"
"It's not like that," Ah Zi stepped forward and said with his heart covered, "Such a big house has disappeared in an instant, not to mention our flesh and blood, isn't that something to piggyback?" To be honest, if it weren't for Sister Xiaojing today, we would really be all finished. ”
When Ah Zi spoke, Qiao Xiaojing kept shaking her head at her, and I don't know if Ah Zi didn't understand what Qiao Xiaojing meant, or didn't see Qiao Xiaojing shaking her head, in short, she said everything she wanted to say.
"Look at it," the leopard said to Qiao Xiaojing, "the eyes of the masses are bright, not only do I think you are our savior, but even Miss Ah Zi has this idea. Alas, it's a pity ......"
"What's wrong?" Jade saw that the leopard had said well, but wondered why he suddenly sighed.
"This condition," the leopard continued, "but unfortunately the conditions do not allow it, in the wilderness, and under the pouring rain, there is no wine or food, otherwise I have to take our brothers to toast and thank Team Qiao, and everyone has to toast a big bowl of wine to Team Qiao." If my brothers heard my proposal, they would have been very happy and rejoicing. What do you say, Miss Zi?"
"Of course," Ah Zi said with a smile, "If there is wine now, I will be the first to respect Sister Xiaojing with a big bowl of wine." No, at least two large bowls, one bowl is not enough to express my inner admiration. ”
Jade and Leopard were amused by Ah Zi's frank words and movements, and the two laughed "hehe".
"Want to drink?" Qiao Xiaojing glanced at Ah Zi with a smile, and said coldly deliberately, "This thing is very easy to do, when the task is completed, I will invite you to drink, and let the big guy each toast you two large bowls, so that you can drink enough at one time." ”
"Are you trying to drink me to death?!" Ah Zi looked stupid and said unhurriedly, "There are two big bowls per person, I have to drink more than 20 bowls of wine, and I may not be able to hold so much wine even if I grow into a wine tank!"
"You're clever!" Qiao Xiaojing glanced at Ah Zi again, and said with a smile, "Stop playing tricks here, go to the back and tell the big ones about them, let them speed up a little bit, it's too slow, so when can they get out of the quagmire." ”
"Gotta order!" Ah Zi smiled and walked towards the big man who was taking care of the box.
Qiao Xiaojing turned her head to look at Ah Zi, pouted and shook her head, and then said to Cuiyu and the leopard: "Photon, they have already left us far behind, and we have to go faster, and the people behind will naturally get up quickly." ”
The torrential rain continued to fall, and the wasteland was full of quagmires of all sizes.
"See," shouted Photon, who was suddenly at the front of the line, "I see ......"
"See what?" roared the leopard.
"Village," the photon pointed to the front, and shouted excitedly to the crowd, "there is a village ahead, and there are people's homes, not far ahead, and they will arrive soon, and it won't take long." ”
"Great!" everyone rejoiced when they heard Mitsuko's words.
"Slow down, slow down, be careful of the box!" The Rifle who carried the box ran even more, and the big man held the box and trotted with him, and kept telling them, but the Rifle was so excited that they couldn't listen to the advice of the big one.
"It's really an endless road," finally came to the road, although it was still muddy, but after all, it was much easier than walking in the mire, Qiao Xiaojing sighed, "The mudslide swallowed up the mountain temple where we stayed, but forced us to come to a better place to stay." This time, we finally don't have to worry about resting anymore. ”
"Yes," said Jade, "when I saw the village, my heart suddenly brightened up, and I felt that the rain did not seem to be as dense as before." ”
"It's just a psychological effect," Ah Zi patted Cuiyu on the shoulder and said with a smile, "This rainstorm not only shows no signs of getting smaller, but on the contrary, it is bigger than before, but fortunately, we don't have to worry about this rain soon, let it rain if you want!"
"We can't just enter the village like this," Qiao Xiaojing said to Cuiyu and Ah Zi, "You two have always had sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and your brains are also flexible, so you two will go to explore the situation first, and if it is safe, we will find a few houses, and we will move forward slowly." ”
"The two of us?" Zi pointed to herself and Jade.
"That's right!" Qiao Xiaojing nodded and said with a smile, "Who else has sharper teeth and better brains than you two? Just you two, hurry up, I hope you two can bring good news to us standing in the heavy rain." ”
"Don't worry," Ah Zi said as she walked while holding Cuiyu, "If we go out, we will definitely succeed, haha." ”
Not long after Cuiyu and Ah Zi entered the village, Qiao Xiaojing and they had already arrived at the entrance of the village, where there was nothing else except a small gatehouse, and everyone could only curl up and stand in the heavy rain waiting, everyone seemed to be pouring water above their heads.
Nearly half an hour later, Cuiyu and Ah Zi ran out of the village.
"Let's go, we've found a place to stay. Cuiyu explained: "This village is very poor, and every house is not well-off, and Ah Zi and I have traveled almost the entire village to find a place to live, so it is too late for you to be drenched in the rain for so long." ”
"It's okay," Qiao Xiaojing said with a smile, "Fortunately, you still found a shelter from the wind and rain, and it doesn't matter if we get wet in the rain for an hour." Is it far away? What is it?"
"It's not far away," said Zi, "and the third one is the one who turns the corner ahead." The owner of this house is an old man, his wife and son are dead, and his daughter-in-law has run away, leaving him and his only grandson to rely on him, but his grandson is getting older and more unorthodox, and he has not been home for a long time, and no one knows where to go, so this house is redundant......"
"How about the house, have you seen it with your own eyes?" the leopard asked.
"The two side rooms," Zi continued, "seem to be a little larger than the normal two rooms, and although they are a little shabby, they should not be a problem to shelter from the wind and rain, so you can rest assured." ”
"That's good," the leopard sighed, "that's good." Look at so many of us, covered in mud and water, like refugees fleeing the famine, if there is no bigger place, everyone huddles together, then there is no rest......
"Here," Zi said, guiding everyone into a courtyard, "this is the courtyard, and the two side houses with open doors on the right are our accommodations." ”
"Great, we have a place to live. ”
"Finally, I don't have to worry about the rain......"
Everyone was amazed again, as if they had forgotten that they were still in the rain.
When the old man heard someone talking in the courtyard, he walked out of the side room with a broom, and said in a stiff voice: "It's all here, come in quickly! This rain is too heavy, I have lived my life, and I have never seen such a heavy rain as in the past two days." You guys are really, you don't look at the old yellow calendar when you go out, it's really bad to go out in such a heavy rain. ”
Everyone was anxious to avoid the rain, and they all crowded into the room guided by the old man, and the room was suddenly full, and the light became a lot darker, and they always felt that their eyes were full of dirty figures.
"This room is smaller, and that room is bigger than this one. The old man smiled and pointed to the next door.
"Okay," the big man understood what the old man meant, tugged at Dazhi's sleeve, and said to Dacheng, Xiao Cai, and Laifu, "Let's go, put the box away, let's go to the next room first, there are too many people in this room." ”
After the big man left, there were only five people left in the house: Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu, Ah Zi, Leopard and Antai, and they stopped a lot.
"No matter what you do, it's not easy, let alone this kind of terrible weather. The uncle looked out of the house and sighed.
"Who says it's not?" Qiao Xiaojing said with a smile, "When we went out, the sun was shining, and it was uncomfortably hot. ”
"Look at the sky," said the old man, "just like a man who is seriously ill, it is absolutely impossible to get well in a moment." If you can come, it means that we have a fate in the dark. Then let's obey the will of heaven and live here with peace of mind, when the sun comes out and the path is dry, when will we go again. ”
"This can't be helped," Qiao Xiaojing saw that the old man began to bend down to clean the house again, hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and said with a shameful face, "Let's do these things ourselves." We're here to give you trouble, how can we still let you work for us, let alone how old you are. ”
"Okay!" the old man smiled and gave the broom to Qiao Xiaojing.
