Chapter 3379 Extra Strong Sister 33
Apart from the sound of burning fire, the only sound in the City God Temple was the occasional sound of people turning over and over. But at this moment, Bai Jingxing felt that the surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that she could only see Yang Zezhi's face reflected in the firelight.
What people say is true, Brother Yang is really handsome, with eyebrows like sharp swords, eyes like stars, a high nose, and a smile at the corners of his mouth. When his eyes look at you, it seems as if you are the only one in them.
Bai Jingxing stared into his eyes and was stunned for a moment.
Yang Zezhi saw her cheeks blushing slightly and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. It's been a year, and this silly girl still hasn't figured it out at all. Why is she so stupid tonight...
Yang Zezhi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and his smile deepened. He looked into her eyes and was about to find a topic to continue when he saw his reflection in her eyes.
He was slightly stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but reach out to tuck the hair that fell from her forehead behind her ear.
The two of them came back to their senses instantly and looked away uncomfortably. Yang Zezhi swallowed and said, "Everyone says Wu Yuan's eyes are very round. I think yours are also very round..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang Zezhi felt that this was not a good thing to say, too reckless, and hurriedly said: "I mean, your eyes are very beautiful. I wonder if you look like Uncle Bai or Aunt Zhou."
Bai Jingxing blushed and looked down at his toes and said, "Looks like my mother, but my grandfather said that our eyes are like my real grandfather's. In my family, my mother and fourth uncle's eyes are most like my real grandfather's."
"Oh, it's pretty."
Bai Jingxing: "Yours looks great too."
After saying this, he felt a little annoyed. Why should there be reciprocity in such matters?
Yang Zezhi couldn't help but curl his lips. He stood up and walked to the side, spread the cloak he was wearing on the straw, and said softly: "It's late, go to sleep quickly. If the rain stops tomorrow, we will leave."
Bai Jingxing hesitated for a moment and then asked, "What about you?"
"I'm not sleepy yet. You go to sleep first and I'll watch the fire for a while."
Bai Jingxing lay down, and Yang Zezhi sat beside her, blocking other people's sight and surrounding her like a wall.
Dongfang smiled at them, then quietly stood up to open their suitcases and took out a coat for him. "Sir, you only brought two cloaks. Can you just wear the coat for now?"
Yang Zezhi responded.
Although most people in the City God Temple were asleep, there were still some people who were not asleep. For example, the group of people behind them did not look like ordinary people, so they were all asleep.
Naturally, he could see clearly the relationship between Yang Zezhi and Bai Jingxing. Although he couldn't hear what they said clearly, he could tell from their intimate posture that they had a close relationship.
Wang Yun lowered her head somewhat disappointedly, holding the handkerchief for a long time and unable to fall asleep.
Bai Jingxing took a while to fall asleep. She could feel Yang Zezhi sitting behind her, with a fire at her feet. She lay on her side facing the wall and did not dare to turn over for a long time.
But it is difficult to wake up once people fall asleep. Bai Jingxing was like this. She slept until dawn and it was Bai Ruoyu who pushed her awake.
Bai Jingxing came out from the cloak, still a little dazed.
Bai Ruoyu looked at her with disdain and said, "You're such a sleepyhead! How can you fall asleep even with such a noise in the temple?"
The people in the City God Temple had woken up long ago and were all boiling water to prepare breakfast. She was the last one to wake up.
Bai Jingxing touched his messy hair and looked up to meet Yang Zezhi's smiling gaze.
She was so embarrassed that her toes curled up. After smoothing her hair, she gave him an embarrassed smile and lowered her head to cover her face with her hands. "Where's the lamb?"
Qian Xiaoyang filled a basin with warm water and gave it to her, "Madam, wash up."
Bai Jingxing let out a breath and hurriedly took the handkerchief.
Li Han, standing by, couldn't help but laugh. "Strange, Bai Xuemei, we've camped out a lot before, and we've seen everyone tumbling down the hillside covered in mud. I never saw you being shy back then, so why are you shy now?"
Bai Jingxing forced himself to remain calm, "How could I be shy? I'm just sorry for getting up late and keeping you waiting."
"Don't be embarrassed," Tao Liang sighed sadly, "We can't leave if you wake up anyway."
"Yes," Yang Zezhi said with a smile, "If you're still sleepy, you can sleep for a while after breakfast."
Bai Jingxing then realized that the rain was still falling outside. She was surprised, "Isn't it spring rain? Why is it raining for so long?"
Yang Zezhi also looked outside worriedly and said, "It's raining so much, and the roads are muddy. I'm afraid it's hard to walk on. I'm even more worried that the mountains can't hold water. If a flash flood occurs, it will be terrible."
Yang Zezhi's prediction was unwavering. Less than an hour after he finished speaking, the guards who had gone out to explore the road returned in the rain to report, "The road ahead is blocked by mud, water, and rocks that have rolled down from the mountain."
Everyone in the City God Temple panicked. "What? A mudslide?"
"What should we do? Will we be unable to leave?"
"Why don't you just turn around and go home."
The guard glanced at the common people, stepped forward and whispered to Yang Zezhi, "The road we came from was also blocked by mud and water."
Yang Zezhi frowned, "What about here?"
"The terrain here is high. I've checked carefully and it's fine for now."
"How far is the mudslide from here?"
"The way out is eight miles ahead, and the way back is five miles behind."
They weren't far away, which meant there might be danger here. Yang Zezhi couldn't help but look at the people in the City God Temple. He quickly identified a few locals and asked, "Is there any other way to get to the county town?"
"This road is the easiest to travel. Even this main road is blocked by mud and water, and the other roads are even more impassable."
"That might not be the case. We can take the small road at the back, but..." The other party glanced at their carriage, "Cars can't pass that road at all, but horses can barely pass it."
Yang Zezhi smiled and said, "That means you can go through."
"Of course we can," they said hesitantly, "but it's still raining outside, and the mountain roads are difficult to travel after the rain..."
Yang Zezhi also looked outside and said, "Wait a little longer and see what happens."
Everyone in the City God Temple could only wait patiently. Bai Jingxing drank a cup of hot tea and sighed, "Rainy days are good for keeping guests. The ancients were right."
"What kind of summary is that?" Bai Ruoyu held her face in her hands, staring blankly at the drizzle outside, and habitually bickered with her, "Anyone knows you can't walk on a rainy day."
Yang Zezhi turned his head and glanced at him, saying, "I see everyone is bored. Why don't you take some books and read? I've already graded the homework you handed in last time. Shall we talk?"
Li Han and the other two were excited and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
Bai Ruoyu quietly lowered his head and hugged his hands, hoping that Yang Zezhi could not see him.
Yang Zezhi patted his head and said, "Ruoyu, bring your homework here. Let's take a look at yours first."
Bai Jingxing chuckled and looked at him with gloating satisfaction.
