Chapter 4 The Rainstorm Continues

The next day, the torrential rain continued.

Xunxian County is still shrouded in the white and wild rainstorm water, uninhibited and unrestricted rain, heavy rain!

At this moment, the bedside room was leaking, and Chu Xiu woke up in a depression.

When I opened my eyes, I heard the sound of rain in my ears.

At the same time, he also felt that Bu Ji had been as cold as iron for many years, and the knife on his waist was even colder, only a warmth in his arms was that Chu Li'er was still asleep.

Chu Xiu lowered his head and glanced at Chu Li'er, who was still sleeping in his arms.

It must have been frightened recently, and he was too young to be too tired, so he was not woken up by the sound of the rain, and was like a young deer curled up in his arms.

Gently inhaling and getting up quietly, Chu Xiu's eyes were gentle, and he carefully folded the quilt for her.

Walk to the center of the dilapidated house -

The irritable and hurried rain shattered into a mirror.

Leaning over, a face that was unfamiliar to him and yet slightly familiar came into view.

I don't know if Chu Xiu's brain circuit is more clear, looking at the face in the water mirror, his first thought is that he is whiter than in his previous life.

Obviously, this is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, with a delicate and gloomy face.

As of today, this non-stop torrential rain has been falling for seven consecutive days.

For a county that did not have much rain in the past, it was often crooked fences, leaky roofs, and wet objects.

"Squeak".

Chu Xiu pushed open the door, the pouring rain was still "booming", and the slightly light rain last night had already become heavy again, and I don't know if the plantain and begonia in the Taiping Inn had escaped.

It stands to reason that a county and town with a fairly dense population should see that there are some inns, cloth villages, rice shops, pawnshops, and medical centers on both sides of the street, which are open for business, even if it rains heavily, it should cover the door and wait for guests, but ......

As far as the eye can see, the first thing that catches your eye is the plane trees planted on both sides of the old days, and then in addition to the fallen leaves that have been swept away by the wind and rain, there are some foam mixed with vegetable leaves and chicken manure floating in the uneven bluestone pavement of the street.

Sycamores, muddy, broken......

If Chu Xiu is not mistaken, it is such a street like a slum, but it has a nice name that does not match it:

Yulong Street.

However, this was not the case with Yulong Street in the past.

Yulong Street belongs to Xunxian County, and if Xunxian County is concerned, Chu Xiu was still quite familiar with this when he was a player in his previous life, and he may have to stay in Xunxian County for a period of time in the future.

Chu Xiu remembered that there was an experiential player called "I have a big base" in the game forum of the Rain Curtain Dynasty, and he once did research on this "novice county" called "Xunxian" and wrote an introduction.

Xunxian County belongs to Changning Mansion, Changning Mansion is the former capital of the Changsheng Heavenly Dynasty, even if it is a Xunxian County in the marginal area, it is also ten miles of prosperity.

The real name of the Rain Curtain Dynasty is the Immortal Heavenly Dynasty. In the autumn of the eleventh year of Yuanwu of the Immortal Heavenly Dynasty, it was also a heavy rainstorm, and now the Immortal Emperor who was in charge of the dynasty was born.

When he was born, the Immortal Emperor was regarded as the hope of the future rise of the Immortal Celestial Empire, which was still a small barbarian country at the time, and sought famous teachers from all walks of life to teach him at any cost.

Later, this immortal emperor who was born with a vision really lived up to expectations, and he was an unprecedented military wizard, and when he was only fifteen years old, he let his art of war teacher and grandson pass on to his grandson.

Under such circumstances, the Immortal Emperor ascended the throne at the age of twenty and created an invincible army called the Immortal Emperor's Army, which annexed the Seven Kingdoms in just six years, unified the world, and established the now great Immortal Celestial Empire.

However, the prosperity of the Immortal Heavenly Empire does not mean the prosperity of Changning Mansion, but it is the beginning of the loneliness of Changning Mansion.

I don't know if Emperor Changsheng is too nostalgic for the old, he forced that the imperial city is within a radius of 100 miles, and all the industrial, commercial and commercial people will move with the capital to the new capital Shengjing.

The prosperity of the past has dispersed, the flow of people is no longer there, and Changning Mansion is becoming more and more depressed, and Xunxian County shares weal and woe.

Back in the room, Chu Xiu looked around.

The only oil-paper umbrella in the corner was gnawed by cheap rats, and the clothes had long been rotten.

And in the rice bowl, there are only one, two, and three grains left......

A total of 30 grains of rice.

Shaking his head helplessly, he walked to the street in the rain, Chu Xiu picked up a square black stone from the corner of the wall, it seems that this stone should have been used to pad the chicken coop in the past, and it was full of dirt.

Carrying a bucket of water to wash the black stone repeatedly, then wiping it with dry grass, and standing upside down under the rain eaves, this is a whetstone.

Chu Xiu took out the knife from the room and polished it on the whetstone.

Another "squeak".

I saw Chu Li'er rubbing her sleepy eyes, suddenly pushed open the door, pouted her pink little mouth, and said with a puzzled expression: "Brother, what are you doing?" ”

Chu Xiu thought of the dozens of taels of silver he had taken from the Taiping Inn yesterday, and then thought of the internal strength method.

While splashing water and sharpening his knife, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly: "Li'er, go wash first, someone will send money later, brother will take you to eat something delicious." ”

"Uh-huh! Li'er will go back and wash up! When the words fell, Chu Li'er suddenly fell asleep, her face was full of joy, and even the corners of her mouth drooled.

In the past, her father would still take him out to eat delicious food, but now she has an older brother who will take her to eat delicious food, and she feels very happy in this way.

"Hey, Chu Xiu, you're not dead yet?"

Two people who shared a yellow oil-paper umbrella, wore a neat short shirt, and embroidered a green dragon on their chests suddenly walked over and stood in the corner of the alley, their faces full of surprise.

In the dashing rain, two visitors stood side by side in the mud with oil-paper umbrellas.

Chu Xiu turned around and said that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and it turned out that he had sent money.

With a smile on his face, he showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said:

"yes, I'm not dead yet."

……

These two Chu Xiuke are no strangers at all, these two people are his good brothers, and he can be reborn in this life thanks to the great help of these two people.

……

In the thirty-first year of the Yuanwu of the Immortal Heavenly Dynasty, the twelve gangs of Changning Mansion fought at the end of July. Xunxian County, as a large county, also has several gang stations, that night of fighting, Chu Xiu was there, and the two of them were also in front of them, and they said that they would fight side by side together.

As early as before the war, there was an order from above: according to the head of the merit, the more you kill, the more money you will reward, and the person with the most heads can directly take charge of a street as a small leader.

Chu Xiu had learned the knife, and that day he shot ruthlessly, the night rain became a curtain, and his vision was blurred, and as soon as Chu Xiu came on the field, he killed three enemies one after another, directly suppressing the people opposite.

But when Chu Xiu was red-eyed, the good brother who said that he would fight side by side left quietly under the leadership of the "good man" he regarded as his eldest brother, causing Chu Xiu to be beaten to death.

That was then, that night. Chu Xiu was dragged away by Zhang Jiye of the Taiping Inn, and this was the thrilling counter-killing yesterday, the first time he killed in this world.

Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, his eldest brother must know that he has been on the road for so long.

Chu Xiu's sharpening of knives so early in the morning was not fun.

Looking at Chu Xiu's sincere smile, the two of them felt a little creepy for some reason, and their backs were cold.

"Liu Sandao eats and drinks spicy food, does his throat hurt?" Chu Xiu asked with a concerned face.

At this moment, the rain was heavy again, and the dark clouds as heavy as lead hung low, and there was a faint sound of muffled thunder.

The entire Xunxian County is under a piece of ink.

There was a hint of a smile in the corner of Chu Xiu's eyes, but the two of them were a little uneasy under the oil-paper umbrella.

"Chu Xiu, don't blame us, if you want to blame, blame you for not knowing how to advance and retreat, killing so many people, so good at fighting, doing things too well, if you don't die, Brother Dao can't be a little boss."

A man with slightly white skin and sparse hair on the top of his head forced himself to calm down.

"What", Chu Xiu's face was full of surprise, and he said in a voice full of doubts:

"The brotherhood between me and Brother Dao for a few years, can't it compare to the temptation of a small leader?"

"Knowing people, knowing faces, not knowing ...... hearts"

At this moment, a sycamore tree flower was knocked down by the rain and sank into the muddy water, and another person with a pockmarked face said impatiently: "The sixth brother said goodbye to him, the eldest brother ordered, take his sister to the Qinglou to be a thin horse, and now even if he is alive, he is scarred, take advantage of his illness, and want him to die." Then the result is that you can go to the eldest brother to get more rewards. ”

The rain crackled, and both of them showed off the knives they had with them.

"Shang" walked out from under the oil-paper umbrella with a pockmarked face, kicked on the muddy road, splashed dozens of muddy water on the wall and was about to rush over.

"Eh, wait for me."

At this time, another sycamore flower fell into the mud, and Chu Xiu had already sharpened his knife and stood up.

The footsteps were ",", and the two people who were about to rush in front of Chu Xiu did not feel the slightest wrong.

At this moment, Chu Xiu is under the rain eaves.

"Who told you that I'm not well."

"Since you know that I have killed so many people and am so capable of fighting, why do you dare to come here."

"Is it to send silver, or to send life?"

The voice is flat, like the ordinary gossip of ordinary people after they have eaten and drunk.

Chu Xiu took a step forward, with a smile on his face, but there seemed to be no rain in his eyes at this time.

When his gaze looked at the two of them again, it seemed as if he was just looking at a few taels of broken silver in the world.

The rain and autumn breeze blow.

The two people who were sticking together under a yellow oil-paper umbrella suddenly felt a little cold, and one of them couldn't help but hesitate:

"You ......"
