At the end of November, the weather was rarely warmer, and it rained lightly in Anshan County.

On both sides of the official road connecting the north and south, many mules and horses were stranded, most of them were trucks, and the goods as high as the hill were piled up on the car board, covered with a large piece of tarpaulin to cover the rain, and the rain was as dense as a mist, which washed the bluestone road and shone brightly.

The mules and horses had nothing to shelter from the rain, and the tendons of the perennial labor were now bulging clearly under the infection of the rain and mist, and they seemed to contain endless power, and they stood quietly in the rain, listening to the faint debauchery laughter from several warm taverns nearby, like rows of sculptural wooden horses.

A young pony who had just grown up and could trek snorted slightly, shook its mane full of water droplets, and seemed to be a little disdainful, it subconsciously lowered its head to look for grass, but where would there be anything to eat on the tight stone road?

After searching for a long time, it finally found a finger-sized mound of earth under the wooden fence not far from its hooves, on which there was a yellow grass with water droplets hanging on it, small and dry, pitifully reminding it of itself.

Staring at the grass in a daze, it was thinking about whether to put its mouth down, eat it, less than five inches high, it can't chew anything in its mouth, don't eat it, there is nothing to fight if you are bound here.

There is nothing wrong with the saying that all things are animistic, but the idea of a livestock is always short and simple, and the thought of struggling lasts only a few breaths, and it uproots the grass with its snow-white front teeth, and with a long tongue, the unfortunate yellow grass disappears into the illusion of fragrance.

I didn't taste anything......

The pony was a little depressed, looking at the small mound of dirt scattered by the departure of the grassroots, only to find that the annoying weather seemed to be even more boring and lonely.

"It's better not to eat. ”

It thinks,

"Smack, smack......"

The sound of boots trampling puddles suddenly sounded on the same lonely avenue, and it was very crisp in the quiet rain and mist, and a bell rang in the herd of mules and horses, and the pony raised his head, and when he saw the two shadows slowly approaching in the distance, he could not help but snort happily, and suddenly became happy and excited.

Because those were two people.

Those two people don't have umbrellas!

"An autumn rain and a cold, look at this, the weather after this shower is only afraid that it will get colder and colder, the winter in the north is no less than a cold knife to the bone, maybe you should prepare some thicker clothes. ”

Huo Sheng put his hand on the pergola and looked ahead, his jade-like face was covered with fine droplets of water, sliding down like streams, the gorgeous moon-white robe was already soaked, stained with a lot of gravel and muddy water, and the black velvet cloud boots seemed to be darker, as if he was stepping on two pieces of cloud pattern square ink used by the royal court.

"Let's wait for the rain to stop, let's find a place to rest,"

Chu Zhanyan said, there was not so much rain on his face, because the originally bright and supple long hair on the top of his head had been stuck to his body, and the whole cat looked like a soaked blanket, squinting slightly, and the dark green pupils seemed to be overflowing with contempt and helplessness.

"Why are there so many carriages and horses?"

Looking at the convoys on both sides of the road, Chu Zhanyan felt a little surprised, it was the first time he had seen such a large scale.

"Caravans, and most of them are long journeys across state lines. ”

Huo Sheng casually glanced at it and said, he didn't have been in the world as long as Chu Zhanyan had been in the world, but he had been to more places.

"From Liuzhou?"

Chu Zhanyan guessed that he had never been to Liuzhou, but had only heard of such a place.

"You're a kid, aren't you?"

Huo Sheng looked at him like an idiot,

"Anshan County is located at the intersection of the north and south borders, and the caravans coming and going from the two places have to pass through here, and it is not uncommon to have such a number.

"Ahem......"

Chu Zhanyan was choked by him and coughed again and again, a little embarrassed, he was indeed a blank slate for secular geography.

"You two are still in the mood to talk about Liu Wenshang, hurry up and find a place to shelter from the rain, this king is sticky to death. ”

Meow interjected weakly, as if she was in a bad mood.

It really can't understand the way of human beings to enter the world and practice.

"You say that you both can fly? Why do you have to go? Is it difficult to be in a hurry, but in this case, why do you have to be able to fly? In fact, it's just a matter of walking, at most it's just a little slower, but when it rains, why don't you use the aura as a barrier to isolate the rain? If you have to get wet and play with some kind of artistic conception, you won't be embarrassed to be hypocritical......

Along the way, since the rain fell, Meow began to slander the two in his heart, it likes to be warm and dry, and is already tired of water, especially this kind of damp and sticky will last for a long time, and it has not been looking for warmth for a day, and the gloom in its heart has already reached its peak at this time.

"Okay, let's hold on. ”

Chu Zhanyan hugged Meow off his head and gently combed its fur to comfort him.

......

"Fuck, stop, stop him!"

"I dare to play under Lao Tzu's nose, I don't want to live!"

"Hit him!"

"Window, window, don't let him run!"

The noisy noise suddenly came from a restaurant on the side of the road, and the crackling sound could be faintly heard, and the two people outside the building and a cat looked up stunned, but just saw that the carved window of the white cedar wood was completely shattered, and a short and fat figure appeared in the splash of broken wood debris.

The restaurant is two floors, each floor has a decorative canopy, is a wooden frame and tile structure, the person jumped out of the window on the second floor and smashed through the canopy below, and suddenly there was a loud noise, I don't know how many tiles were broken, the whole shed collapsed half of it instantly, for a time the smoke and dust were everywhere, and even the rain could not be suppressed immediately.

Many guys who came down from the upstairs and tried to block people were also forced to run around with their heads in their hands, for fear of being smashed and bleeding.

"Damn, play with your life!"

Huo Sheng was shocked by the scene in front of him, he could see that the fat man was an authentic mortal, without aura protection, so if he fell like this, he would break his bones and tendons, and he might have to take his life for a while.

Listening to the noise upstairs just now, it seems that the gambling money is out of the money? It seems that this restaurant is definitely not a serious place, maybe it is the property of a bully in Anshan County, and if you are caught cheating at the gambling table, you must be beaten fat, but even so, you will not fight so hard, this is really a life.

How terrible and ruthless are the people behind this restaurant?

In an instant, Huo Sheng actually felt a little sympathy and pity for this fat guy, and secretly said that people really died for money, so why bother.

But his sympathy and pity only lasted for less than two breaths or so, but he saw a hole suddenly grow in the center of the smoke, and the fat figure in the green shirt burst out of it, as agile and fast as a cunning rabbit, and disappeared at the end of the rain curtain avenue in a few blinks of an eye.

In the collapsed ruins, the smoke and dust even fell back, and Huo Sheng's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime......
