Chapter 98 Lake .

The rain lasted longer than expected.

After twenty days of continuous heavy rain, a loud noise was suddenly heard at night.

Zhao Yeqing jumped up from the bed, and the two of them looked at each other in sync. Mu Xi was closer to the door and opened it first.

The heavy rain was still falling, and the wind blew the raindrops into the house. The two squinted their eyes and looked out...

There were lightning and thunder in the distant sky. A bolt of thunder struck a hill not far away. A huge tree on the top of the hill fell down, and there was another loud noise.

The fallen tree seemed to have attracted the attention of the dark clouds, and another thunderbolt struck the rocks beside the tree...

The rocks exploded instantly, and gravel flew everywhere.

The rolling rocks and fallen huge trees hit the trees nearby.

Thunder kept striking and trees kept falling.

The tree roots brought out the soil, and rubble began to roll down the mountain.

There was a faint roar coming from the top of the mountain, and the dog at home began to bark wildly.

However, in just a few tens of seconds, the rock and soil seemed to no longer be able to support the mountain and it suddenly slid down!

Half of the sloping mountain seemed to be cut by a sharp blade, and the trees on it slid down the mountain like a flood!

A mountain that was intact just now was cut in half in just two minutes.

Zhao Yeqing was stunned and didn't even feel the rain hitting his face.

Mu Xi came to his senses, pulled her in and closed the door.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and neither of them had really recovered from the shock.

Unable to sleep, the two of them waited with their eyes open until morning.

I noticed that it seemed to be getting quieter in my ears.

Zhao Yeqing pushed open the door and found that the rain was gradually getting lighter.

Although it's not drizzling yet, I can still go out wearing a hat.

The sun shines through the clouds and some golden light can be vaguely seen.

By noon, the sun finally showed its strength and succeeded in dispersing the rain clouds in the sky.

The sun shone on the meadow, and the leaves were still wet and reflected the golden light of the sun.

The wind was blowing gently, and from time to time there were the sounds of birds, and the scent of green grass and moist earth filled my nostrils.

The sun is shining and the breeze is not dry.

Zhao Yeqing opened the door of the hay room. Several dogs and little leopards were suffocated. For more than 20 days, they did not come out except for peeing and urinating.

Don't close the door of the hay house when it's open to get rid of the smell.

The pasture was too wet, so Zhao Yeqing held Dahuang back and didn't let it go out to graze. He just let it take its children out to play by themselves.

Sheep are prone to diarrhea if they eat too much grass mixed with rainwater.

By the next day, the rain had stopped and the grass on the pasture had become a little drier.

Zhao Yeqing opened the sheep pen early in the morning and asked Dahuang to take the sheep out.

Dahuang seemed to have finally found the value of his life as a dog, jumping around happily.

The two of them followed the dog out the door.

First I went to take a look in the grass circle.

After this rainstorm, Zhao Yeqing originally thought that the tender grass might not be able to withstand the destruction and be completely wiped out.

But unexpectedly, they all grew taller as if they had been injected with growth hormones.

She couldn't help but think of a sentence she had seen before - the so-called natural disasters are nothing more than human definitions, and the earth is just functioning normally.

After a month of rain, one-third of the family's hay and silage had been consumed.

I have to mow the grass quickly to make up for it.

What if it starts raining again someday?

Planning ahead is a fine traditional virtue of flower growers.

So is hard work.

The two of them had no intention of taking a break. They had to do what they were supposed to do first, otherwise they would easily become anxious when they were idle.

Not only the grass in the hayfields, but also the grass on the meadow has grown a lot taller.

The areas that had been grazed were now densely covered with grass sprouts.

The two men walked towards the trap, where there was almost no pasture and the grass had not been harvested yet.

Cut the grass along the way as you go.

The grass here is almost all wild, not in large patches, and there are all kinds of grass.

Finished watching the trap.

The three traps had all been destroyed. Perhaps they were hit by the panicked beasts that passed by, number three and number two had already fallen to the ground.

Number One had disappeared along with that half of the mountain.

Naturally, the prey was caught with nothing.

When the two men walked near No. 3, they found that the small stream that originally ran along the mountain was flowing again.

The water is still a little turbid, but it will probably return to its former clarity after settling down in a few days.

Although there was no prey, the two found a patch of small mushrooms popping up near the original trap!

We don’t know what kind of fungus it is yet, but the yield is quite high.

Zhao Yeqing suppressed the urge to touch it.

It is said that if mushrooms are pointed at, they will not grow big.

Come back tomorrow and it will probably be all grown out.

The two walked along the stream and discovered many mushroom colonies along the way.

Zhao Yeqing wrote them all down and planned to catch them all the next day or the day after tomorrow.

After a rain, the stuffiness was gone. I went out for a walk and found the scenery on the meadow much more pleasing to the eye.

Follow the stream down and over a small hill, and the view in front of you will suddenly open up.

A quiet, deep, mirror-like lake appeared before our eyes.

The lake is azure blue and surrounded by mountains, it is so beautiful that it seems unreal.

It’s like Qianshan is holding a piece of blue glass in his hand.

Zhao Yeqing opened his mouth slightly and tugged at Mu Xi's sleeve.

"Did you see that?"

It's hard not to see.

Mu Xi smiled and replied helplessly,

"Yes, I see."

Not far away, a gray-white bird flew by and landed on the lake, breaking the glass mirror and causing ripples.

Zhao Yeqing narrowed his eyes, "It looks like some kind of wild goose."

The lake was quite large. She estimated that it was five kilometers wide from north to south and at least seven or eight kilometers long from east to west.

Such a big lake must have never dried up before, but they have never come to see it.

Soon after the gray-white goose fell into the water, several other geese emerged from the grass by the lake, flapped their wings a few times and flew to the surface of the lake.

However, the geese that flew out later were not as calm as the previous one, and their flying figures seemed a little flustered.

The grass over there was some distance away from them and couldn't be seen clearly.

Zhao Yeqing stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look around.

A few minutes later, a horse emerged from the grass, eating grass.

horse?

Zhao Yeqing blinked his eyes, "Am I seeing things?"

Mu Xi was also stunned, "It should be, no..."

“Is this a wild horse?”

Zhao Yeqing was a little surprised. Where did the wild horses come from in their place?

Doesn't this conform to the law of species distribution?

Mu Xi also narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.

The distance here is quite far, and the sunlight reflected on the lake surface is a bit dazzling.

"No, it looks like it was raised by a human, and it looks like it has a bridle on its head."

There was a bridle, but no reins or saddle.

"Could this be someone else's horse that escaped?"

Zhao Yeqing's heart skipped a beat!

Now that it has run away, it should be ownerless, right?
