Chapter 557: A flash of lightning outside the Imperial Village

Hua Yi stretched out his hand to support Steward Zhang, who was almost tripping, asked him to sit down, and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic yet, what happened?" ”

"Just now, a farmer from the Huangzhuang came to me and told me that Ning Shixian sent a dragon guard to deliver a letter to Master Hua, as if to let you go to the Xian County Lord's Mansion, but that Long Wei was blocked by a caravan on a small road two miles away, and there seemed to be a dispute."

Steward Zhang couldn't help but be suspicious.

"Master Hua, they won't be here for the letter sent by Ning Shixian, right?"

It's not an important letter, so naturally Long Wei won't be sent here.

Huayi also has this conjecture.

He squinted and glanced out the window.

The night has covered the entire sky, and only lightning not far away has pierced the sky from time to time, making the night sky even darker and more terrifying after a short period of illumination.

After thinking about it for a while, Hua Yi still made a decision.

"Regardless of whether Long Wei was stopped unintentionally or intentionally, since he sent me a letter without harm, there is no need to wait for Long Wei to come and prepare my packed things, I will go to the Xian County Lord's Mansion."

Long before the news of the firing of the glaze came, Huayi had already prepared half a car of Artemisia annua to be dried in Jinling, waiting for the good news from Ning Wuxian at any time.

In this case.

Even if he learned that Long Wei was trapped, Hua Yi was not nervous, on the contrary, he still had some faint expectations, what kind of letter did he bring to him before he would be targeted.

Before leaving, Steward Zhang suddenly thought of something, glanced at the thunderous sky, and asked cautiously: "Master Hua, don't you go out to take a hexagram?" ”

"You don't have to occupy it, in this case, it must be a thunderous hexagram, let's go quickly, it's too late, I'm afraid that the letter sent by the dragon guard will be snatched away."

Hua Yi's tone was brisk, and he walked out with his hands in his hands.

Not much.

Lightning and thunder roared, and fine autumn rain fell.

Although Hua Yi said that he didn't need to divinate the hexagram, he still made a divination for the sake of safety.

"Sure enough, it's a shocking hexagram."

That being the case, he dismissed his plans to go as fast as he could.

The two dragon guards arranged with His Majesty got into the carriage and left the Huangzhuang with the half cart of Artemisia annua.

At this time, it is only two miles away from Huangzhuang.

Jiang Shu looked at the caravan that was pouring goods in front of him with a cold face and blocking the way, and knew in his heart that these people were doing it on purpose.

From the time I left the city gate to the present, the road of just ten miles has been stopped three times.

Once or twice, it can be said to be a coincidence.

It's just three things, and this time, it must be deliberate.

But Jiang Shu didn't understand what was the use of them stopping him.

The three people had no intention of doing anything with him, and they had been busy with their "business" so intently that they seemed to be just blocking themselves.

But he just went to invite Master Hua to the Xian County Lord's Mansion for dinner, so what if it was a little earlier or a little later?

With such doubts, Jiang Shu continued to look coldly at the coachmen who were struggling to remove the obstacles in front of him, until a wide passage was moved out in front of him, and he asked with a smile: "Did you only stop me for a quarter of an hour and let me go?" ”

"Brother, what are you talking about, we didn't stop you, isn't it a coincidence, before you came, our goods fell to the ground, but this matter is not bad for us, it was a Beidi caravan just now, it had to squeeze us, so that we accidentally fell into the gutter in order to avoid their high-headed horses, which blocked your way."

The person in charge of the caravan spoke very sincerely, and it did not seem to be a lie.

And by observing the ruts on the ground, there are indeed traces of another caravan passing by, but under the washing of the autumn rain, it gradually becomes less realistic.

"I said brother, didn't you say that you were busy going to Huangzhuang, let's go, if the rain goes down again, you should be soaked, I'm really sorry, it's in your way, I'm sorry."

The head of the caravan kept smiling.

Just by looking at the clothes Jiang Shu was wearing, he knew that this person was not an ordinary person.

After all, they were the ones who blocked the way first, even if those Beidi people caused trouble, but those Beidi people had already run away, and if the other party was to blame, they could only bear the guilt themselves.

Jiang Shu saw that this group of people really had no other plans, so he gently clamped the horse's belly and slowly walked through the passage full of goods.

It wasn't until he left the pile of goods and saw those people that not only did he not mean to escape, but continued to use all his strength to pick up the fallen goods and cover them with waterproof tarpaulins, Jiang Shu was sure that what they said was true.

"It's weird, is this really just a coincidence?"

Thundered......

As soon as the words fell, there was a muffled sound, and a bolt of lightning exploded in his ears.

Click!

The horse that Jiang Shu stepped on was so startled that it neighed, and the coachman who carried the goods behind was also frightened, and some of them were timid, so they directly dropped the goods in their hands, covered their ears and squatted on the ground, for fear that the thunder would hit their heads.

"This thunder is getting closer and closer, it seems that I can't ride a horse back, and I don't know how long this rain will last."

Jiang Shu was not afraid of this lightning and thunder, but the horse would be afraid.

In addition, the road was slippery on a rainy day, and he was blocked when he came today, so he felt that when he went back, he should be cautious, and wait until the rain stopped before returning to the Xian County Lord's Mansion with Master Hua.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.

"Drive."

Jiang Shu waited until the lightning slashed in the direction of Huangzhuang, clamped the horse's belly, tightly controlled the reins, and drove the horse in the direction of Huangzhuang.

Behold.

The horse had just walked two steps, and suddenly there was a "plop", his legs were weak, and he fell to his knees in the mud, and the splashed mud spots shook Jiang Shu's face.

"What's going on? Injured? ”

Jiang Shu was vigilantly looking around, in case someone made a secret move.

Suddenly, a blue-white lightning bolt as thick as a dragon slashed straight into a forest a mile away.

The forest is the extent of the Huangzhuang field, and there is a road in the middle, which is the only passage to the Huangzhuang.

The moment he saw the lightning, Jiang Shu felt a shock in his heart, and he immediately covered his ears and waited for the thunder to pass.

Meanwhile.

Hua Yi, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly felt his hair stand on end.

Not only him, but also the two dragon guards beside him.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but shudder.

He has been observing the celestial phenomena for many years, and how can he not understand that this is a sign before being struck by lightning.

It's just that the woods they walked on were flat and not highland, so why did they have such signs?

This is not the time to delve deeper.

The hair stood on end, and it was still some time before the lightning striked.

And this is flat land, and the likelihood of becoming an area mainly struck by lightning is low.

Coupled with the fact that the power of the autumn thunder is inferior to that of the summer, this danger can be predicted in advance and avoided safely.

Hua Yi hurriedly raised the curtain and shouted at the driver outside.

"Parking! Go down and hold your head, don't ......"

Before Hua Yi finished speaking, a blue-white light flashed in front of him, and while his brain was blank, his body subconsciously rolled towards the car with his head in his hands.
