On the official road leading from the capital to Jiayuguan, a large carriage that could carry more than a dozen people was speeding along. The sky outside was covered with dark clouds, and a heavy rainstorm poured down continuously. Shen Jie lifted the curtain and saw outside The raindrops as big as beans turned into needle-thin shapes.
On the side of the carriage he was sitting on, three meters away from the carriage on the right side of the official road was a slope that sloped downward. Lush grass and vines blocked the canyon below, and in the distance were mountains hundreds of meters high.
These peaks are not connected together, but the mountain slopes down into a valley, and then connects to another peak. The official road they are on should reach the middle of the mountain range. The surfaces of these peaks are all covered with lush trees, and on the peaks A large amount of fog surrounds the central part of the mountain range, and the tops of several distant peaks about a thousand meters high are shrouded in misty rain and fog, and black peaks are exposed at high altitudes.
Several other people in the carriage also looked out the window. "The scenery here and the capital are as high as heaven and earth. Look over there, it's like a fairyland." Miss Zhang Yan opened the curtain and splashed a burst of water droplets. She felt cool and cool, and there were water drops falling on her hands. The curtain hit her chest, and she suddenly felt a deep sense of suffocation.
Even the carriage slowed down, and a huge roar sounded in the distance on the road. Lu Jianxing stretched his head out of the window, and within a moment, his head was completely wet with rain.
"There is a landslide three to four hundred meters ahead. Most of the official road is covered with mountains. I'm afraid the carriage will be a little sad," he said.
Jin Yichuan, who was driving the carriage in front, slowly tightened the reins and the carriage slowly slowed down.
"Brother, let's get out of the car and clean the road." He looked inside the car and saw a steady drizzle of rain.
Shen Jie saw that Yichuan's whole body was soaked through. There was a roof in front of the carriage, but the rainwater outside was blown in by the gusts of mountain wind.
Shen Jie did not move, but devoted himself wholeheartedly to recovering his mana. Within one day of arriving here, they were attacked by three waves of Shenji battalions, and his mana had already bottomed out.
However, the carriage they were riding in was driven by one of the captured Jinyi Guards Qianhu. They rushed here non-stop, and the enemy army had already been left behind them.
Lu Jianxing and Yichuan quickly put on a layer of raincoat, and Zhuo'er saw that a mountain range next to the road collapsed from the mountainside, revealing an inner layer of red and yellow mud and stone. There was a layer of soil of the same color sloping on the road. The landslide closest to the mountain was twice as high as theirs, and it was about half a meter high even from the valley. Yichuan and Lu Jianxing mainly opened roads away from the cliffs. The red soil was thrown into the valley by them. As soon as the soil reached the sky, it was poured down by intensive rainwater, which could not carry away any dust. The edge of the raincap worn by Lu Jianxing was like the edge of a house, and the rainwater poured down in a steady stream.
Originally, there was only some rain dripping down inside the carriage. After about ten minutes, Lu Jianxing walked in and saw that it was raining moderately. Several people in the carriage had wooden umbrellas above their heads. He simply took off his raincoat. They didn't even take off their clothes, and the interior of the carriage decorated with stalls was as dirty as a flood.
Ikawa carefully drove the carriage and slowly passed through the opened road. If the road were not paved with a layer of sand and gravel, driving in this situation would be like seeking death. The cough in his throat could not be suppressed. He felt a little exhausted. If he could survive this time, his condition would worsen even if he survived. However, remembering that his brother and woman were behind him, he had no hesitation.
The horse speed was not as fast as before, and the car was filled with the roar of the falling rain outside. Zhou Miaotong leaned into Shen Lian's arms, her hands covering his wounds, for fear that the rain would make his injuries worse. But in fact, it was useless. She had already seen that Shen Lian's face was pale and sweat was flowing down his forehead. There was nothing she could do. He was very strong and had been enduring the pain so far. Seeing Miao Tong worried I still have relief in my eyes.
"Yichuan, come in and change with Brother Lu." Zhang Yan lifted the cloth in front of the car, and she saw a heavy rain outside, and moderate rain on his side. He carefully controlled the carriage and galloped forward.
"Third brother, you go in." Lu Jianxing immediately walked outside the door. Seeing the speed of the car slowing down, he changed places with Yichuan.
As soon as Jin Yichuan walked into the car, he felt exhausted and almost fell to the ground, but he hit a warm and soft place.
He raised his eyes and saw a soft look looking at him. When he came in, the continuous rain flowing through his body became intermittent. He felt a coldness that made him shudder. All the pores stood up at this moment.
They have become accustomed to this kind of life of licking blood. As long as they survive this journey, according to the news they received, there is a group of inns in the mountains specifically for people like them heading west to rest. But so far, the road ahead Nothing could be seen but the rain.
