Chapter 742: Encountering the Old House in the Middle of the Night
A bright white lightning bolt tore through the sky in the night sky, followed by a rumbling thunder, followed by the torrential rain. In the mountains and forests, the mountain wind is whistling, like an exciting music, and many mountains and trees are its listeners, dancing with it frantically.
The mountains and forests under the storm are undoubtedly extremely dangerous, and in such an environment, few people dare to rush in the unfamiliar mountains and forests. All the people who participated in the assessment, who had been prepared, may have found a shelter from the wind and rain, and are hiding in the shelter at the moment waiting for the rain to stop at dawn, as for those who were not prepared in advance, they are like a headless fly at the moment, alone in the storm.
Shi Jin belongs to one of the headless flies. At this moment, walking on an unknown mountain trail, with heavy rain on his head, and his feet on the wetland, his mood is called a mess.
He had been so immersed in the road that he hadn't paid any attention to the change in the sky. The rain came so quickly and so quickly that before he could react, the rain began to pour down.
At this moment, the whole body, even the underwear, was so drenched that the water could be squeezed out, and the soaked body was blown by the mountain wind, even if the body was great, Shi Jin couldn't help but shake a few times.
It's autumn, and it's even late autumn, and the wind is already a little cool, which is in line with the weather at the moment. That hint of coolness is infinitely magnified.
Shi Jin carried Jiuwu on his body, held the branch he picked up in his hand, and explored the way forward in the dark night, fortunately, there were frequent lightning in the sky, which could bring him a glimmer of light. Otherwise, at this moment, he will call the heavens and the earth unspiritual.
He had to find a place to shelter from the rain, and walking at night was not only inconvenient, but also dangerous, and he would never have chosen to go now unless it was necessary.
Fortunately, he was lucky, this place should not be far from a nearby village or something, and after walking for a short time, he found a small cave where he could shelter from the rain, and there were traces of human activity near the cave. It may be reluctant to say that it is a cave, but shelter from the rain is not.
There are still some dry firewood and weeds in the cave, which should be placed here by people living nearby, and there are still traces of fire left in the cave. With the light of the extravagant electric umbrella, Shi Jin spent a lot of effort to raise a fire in the cave.
Watching the flames rise, Shi Jin showed a relieved smile on his face, being able to raise a fire at this moment is simply his character that is so good that there is nowhere to put it is doing tricks.
This fire is very precious, and at this moment, even if someone gives a thousand yuan in exchange for this fire, he is not willing to change it. Taking off the wet clothes, the firelight dispelled the slightest coolness.
The situation here is not miserable, and some people are even worse than him.
Needless to say, Xiang Yu's weight of thirty catties made his pressure far exceed that of others, and in real terms, his test was definitely the most difficult.
Xiang Yu is hard and difficult here, but on the other side, Liao Yong, the situation is a little funny.
As we all know, he has to memorize the essays of elementary school students. Chen Yu didn't know what to think, he actually asked him to memorize the composition of a primary school student, such an act is simply humiliating. Although Liao Yong prefers the humiliation of the present to those obscure things than to memorize them.
With such a heavy rain, Liao Yong couldn't even take care of himself, but he still had to protect the composition in his arms. The quality of the paper used for writing is not good, and it may break down if it is gently pulled when wet.
Although the rules do not say that the text of the composition should be kept intact, at present, Liao Yong still can't memorize the five essays, and even the first one, he still stammers. Therefore, it goes without saying that the importance of the text is self-evident.
Bending down to protect the text from getting wet, Liao Yong cautiously hurried forward, and like Shi Jin, he had to quickly find a place to shelter from the rain. It's not cost-effective to rush now, so instead of moving forward in fear, it's better to find a place where you can rest and recharge.
Maybe God really opened his eyes, and it really made Liao Yong find such a place.
At his feet was a mountain path, and on both sides of the path was a field of wild grass, and the path should have been often walked, and the wild grass did not grow to the middle of the road. At the end of this path, with the help of lightning and thunder, Liao Yong vaguely saw the outline of a house.
It's not late at night, but it's not much closer. The city may still be full of lights, but in the countryside and mountains, the residents go to bed early. Especially in this thunderstorm, most of the mountain villages will have power outages, so there is no reason to stay awake for a long time.
Seeing the houses vaguely appearing in the distance, Liao Yong was overjoyed, and the smile on his face could not be hidden, and he accelerated his pace and ran over.
Although it is a little scary to encounter a house with no lights in the mountains and forests on a thunderstorm night, but don't talk about these at this moment, even if it is Lanruo Temple, Liao Yong will definitely break in.
Adjacent to the house, the surrounding environment is finally more human. At this moment, in front of Liao Yong, there is a paddy field, in which the rice has already been harvested, and only the head of the rice after the rice has been harvested is left in the field.
Seeing these things through the thunder light, Liao Yong actually felt a sense of closeness in his heart, anyone who drilled such a day in the barren mountains and forests without any traces of people, I was afraid that they would have the same feeling as him.
It seems that this place is inhabited. Seeing the scene in the field, Liao Yong's heart was a little wider, someone is good! He was really worried that this was an old abandoned house that was uninhabited.
I quickly ran to the eaves of the house, and the rain on the eaves flowed down the tiles like a thread, and walked to the door of the house, where there was an open space and a second floor above, and the rain could not be drenched here.
Running to the house, Liao Yong didn't care about anything else, and quickly took out the text in his arms and put it in a dry and open place, so as not to get wet by the rain on his body. Now this book is the second most important thing in his body besides his life.
Looking at the door, Liao Yong had the heart to step forward and knock on the door, but the lights of the house had stopped, and it was a little inappropriate to go up and knock on the door at the moment. Those traditions of the army, he is well aware.
Just as he was hesitating, a noise came from the other direction of the house.
"Woo~~Woo~~" A low whine sounded, which is a movement that canines will make when they threaten their enemies. Hearing this voice, Liao Yong immediately became alert
"Woo" for a long time, there was no movement on the other side, but Liao Yong's body turned into a threatening posture. The dog on the other side must have been raised by this family, but this is not the time to think about this, the dog on the other side now clearly regards him as an enemy. I don't know when I'm going to pounce on him.
"Wang...... Woo Woo ........"
The dog didn't pounce, but barked loudly at Liao Yong, quite a feeling that the warning didn't work, and began to scold.
"Wangwang~~~" As soon as the dog barked, it was endless, looking at Liao Yong who neither stepped forward nor retreated, his face was fierce. There is a sense of biting people if they don't agree with each other.
In the face of this guy, Liao Yong didn't dare to say anything "I don't accept you to bite me".
Dogs are common in rural areas, especially in places where there is only one family, and it is not surprising to have dogs.
The dog barked for a while, and Liao Yong confronted it helplessly until there was a sound in the house.
