The sky was covered with dark clouds, making it hard to breathe.

A rush to harvest was taking place in the Qingque tribe due to such weather.

The harvesters stopped what they were doing, picked up the harvested crops on the ground, joined the loading crowd, and loaded the crops onto the trucks.

Seeing that there were enough people beside each cart carrying crops and that so many people were not needed at all, the rest of the people very consciously began to tie up the grain with ropes, or with straw ropes quickly twisted from weeds they had picked up.

Some are experts at binding, whether it be people or grain.

In a short while, it can be tied up. It is not only fast, but also neat, beautiful and strong.

They were responsible for binding the bundles, while the remaining people who were not skilled in binding would carry one or two bundles on their shoulders and trot towards the threshing floor.

Of course, this is the case in places close to the threshing ground. In the fields far away from the threshing ground, the people in the tribe simply tied the millet into bundles and placed them upright in a higher place in the field with the roots facing down and the ears facing up.

Get together.

Some people ran all the way to the tribe, picked up the straw fences that had been carried to the edge of the threshing ground, and ran towards the fields they were harvesting.

After people hurriedly gathered the grains together, they quickly spread out the thick straw fences to cover the grains that had not been transported to the threshing ground in time, to protect them from wind and rain.

After everyone had harvested the millet in their area, they trotted towards the fields nearest to them that had not been harvested yet to help.

The threshing floor is more lively than the fields.

It's not just that the crops in the nearby fields are being transported here at this time, but there is a more important reason: the piles of millet that have already been stacked here need to be covered up quickly.

Moreover, the millet that had just been threshed, the straw had just been picked out, and had not yet been cleaned, also needed to be gathered together quickly.

During the gathering process, many people were loading the grains into double-layer baskets woven with thin bamboo strips on the outside and wide bamboo strips on the inside, and then carrying them quickly to the empty storehouses in the tribe.

This kind of mat basket is very strong and extremely fine.

It fits tightly together. Not to mention using it to store millet, even if it is used to store ground flour, no flour will leak out from the gaps.

There is no doubt that things like this were made by the people in the tribe after a long period of exploration and based on the needs of the tribe.

Of course, in this process, Han Cheng, the son of God who came from later generations, once played some guiding role.

In the midst of this urgent and busy situation, a chilly wind arose and quickly grew stronger.

Coupled with the gloomy weather, people have a great sense of urgency.

Not long after the evil wind started, raindrops as big as beans began to fall.

A sudden rainstorm is coming soon.

Everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety as if they were on fire!

The raindrops that fell at high speed and hit the body with extreme pain not only failed to extinguish the fire in people's hearts, but made the fire in their hearts even more fierce.

It was as if what was pouring down was not rain at all, but oil!

In an instant, the heavy rain soaked the busy people.

At this time, there are still some things that have not been covered.

Everyone was busy working in the rain.

Then, at the call of Han Cheng and others, he quickly ran towards the tribe.

The crowd, all wet, stood at the gate, the doorways of the houses and under the sheds, watching the rain with feelings of relief, sadness and some excitement.

A moment later, someone wearing a straw hat and a raincoat went outside.

Dive into the vast rain curtain.

Of course, there were also some people in the crowd who were wearing raincoats and looked quite eye-catching.

These people went into the rain and made their way to the threshing ground, while some went into the fields.

This is because there was still a strong wind at that time, and people were worried that the straw covering things would be blown away by the wind, and the rain would wet the millet underneath, causing losses.

"Why doesn't the rain stop? Is it still falling?"

The witch stood in the middle of the threshing floor. He stretched out his hand to help press down the straw mats while looking around. In the midst of the heavy rain, he spoke with a worried look on his face.

Reaching out to remove the straw covering in some places, he looked down and found that water had begun to seep in some places. The witch became even more worried.

What should I do?

The rain was so heavy that there was no way to move the threshed millet into the house.

But if we just cover it here like this, the waterproof effect of the straw thatch is not very good, and a lot of millet will be wetted by rain.

Just when Wu was feeling depressed and couldn't find a solution, a man wearing a dark grey raincoat came over.

This person was none other than Han Cheng.

"Hurry up and get those rain sheets from the tribe! Use the rain sheets to cover these grains!"

Han Cheng also discovered this serious problem.

He turned to the person next to him and shouted loudly.

After receiving his order, several people immediately ran towards the tribe in the rain.

After a while, they came running back again.

Holding a folded rain cloth in his arms.

Han Cheng and the rest of the people quickly took the rain cloth, opened it quickly, and then swiftly covered the pile of millet with it.

The straw thatch that had previously covered the millet pile was not removed but was directly covered on top.

In order to prevent the tarpaulin from being blown away by the wind, everyone found stones and pressed down the tarpaulin around and on top.

After Han Cheng and others quickly completed these tasks, a lot of water had already gathered on the rain sheet.

The water gathered together and flowed around. It was basically certain that the rain water would not flow towards the pile of millet below.

Seeing this scene, Wu, who had been extremely worried, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He lowered his head and looked at the rain sheets carefully for a while, then he whispered to himself: "These things are also useful, and not all of them are wasteful."

Han Cheng was standing quite far away from the witch, and because of the sound of wind and rain, he could not hear what the witch said.

However, from the witch's expression, one can get some clues and understand some of his feelings at the moment.

He couldn't help but smile and didn't say much.

This time, the rain was heavy and came very quickly. This made the people in the Qingque tribe very worried.

On rainy days like this, women and children in the tribe have more free time.

The men in the tribe still can't sit still.

Because there were crops in the fields, they were worried that the rain would flood the crops, so they needed to carry tools such as shovels and patrol the tribe's fields.

Dig up the area where water accumulates and let the water flow out.

Wu was also not idle, he was also patrolling outside.

The only difference is that the place he was inspecting was the threshing ground in the tribe.

He was worried that the wind would blow away the straw thatch and other things, causing damage to the millet in the tribe.

Although many people in the tribe had already advised him and made it clear to him that he should not worry, as they were there, the wind would definitely not blow away the straw mats and other things.

But Wu was still worried and insisted on going out in the rain to inspect these things.

However, besides him, there are other people doing this, so when he is wandering around here and really encounters some problems, it is not his turn to take action because someone else has already solved it.

After a while, the witch's attention began to focus more and more on the rain cloth in the center of the threshing floor.

When the rain falls on the tarpaulin, the water flows away quickly without seeping downwards.

Unlike straw thatch, it is okay if the rain is light and for a short time, but if it rains for a long time and heavily, the rainwater will start to seep down and make the things underneath wet.

Once again, the witch could not help but come to the center of the threshing ground, and to the side of the tarpaulins. After getting the water on a small area of ​​the tarpaulins onto the ground, he carefully uncovered the tarpaulins, then wiped his other hand on the clothes inside the raincoat, and reached out to the millet covered under the tarpaulins.

It feels not wet when I touch it.

Such a result made Wu unable to help but look at the rain cloth a few more times.

It seemed that there was also a raincoat made of the same material in his room.

This was given to him by the Son of God a few days ago.

After I got it, I just left it there and never wore it.

This material looks very special. It is such a thin layer but has such a good waterproof effect. Do you want to try it on yourself?

See how it works?

Wu squatted here, looking at the rain cloth in front of him, thinking this in his heart.

I definitely did not forget the oath I made before. I just simply felt that this rain cloth was very magical and wanted to feel what it felt like to wear clothes made of such rain cloth.

Thinking this in his heart, Wu felt at ease and took it for granted.

I just wanted to try it out, not really want to wear it. This doesn't go against my previous thoughts at all.

The more Wu thought about it, the more he felt that he was right. This was indeed the truth.

He immediately took his hands out from under the tarpaulin, covered the tarpaulin again, and pressed the edges with stones to prevent the tarpaulin from being blown away by the strong wind.

Then he stood up and walked towards the tribe.

The people at the threshing ground couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the witch finally go back.

This is not because the witch's presence here makes them feel pressured or uncomfortable.

It was because they were worried that with such heavy rain and strong wind, if Wu stayed here for too long, he would get sick.

After all, Wu is old and different from ordinary people.

The bamboo hat and the raincoat can indeed keep you away from the rain, but this kind of protection has certain limitations and cannot really guarantee that you will not get any rain on you.

After a long time, your body will become damp, and even the clothes on your body will become wet and stick to your body.

It's very uncomfortable.

Over time, the witch's body may no longer be able to bear it.

The witch returned to the room and, with Yuan's help, took off his hat and raincoat and hung them on the wall.

A large amount of rain dripped down along the straw hat and raincoat, quickly leaving a wet patch of water on the ground.

The bamboo hat and the raincoat were heavy to begin with due to their materials. Now that they were soaked by the rain, they became even heavier.

After taking it off his body, Wu suddenly felt much lighter.

The whole person feels light and cheerful.

Wu reached out his wet hands and stroked the half-glown head from front to back a few times, then began to search through the drawers and cabinets in the room.

"What are you looking for?"

Yuan, who was standing at the side with a big belly, asked this question out loud.

"Looking for a raincoat."

Although he really didn't want to tell anyone about this, when Yuan asked about it, Wu hesitated for a moment and then told the truth.

"I remember putting it right here, how come I can't find it?"

After finishing speaking, Wu spoke again with doubt in his voice.

It's like he wants to use this kind of language to divert or cover up something.

Yuan was stunned and didn't react for a moment.

"What are you looking for it for? Didn't you say you didn't want to wear a raincoat?"

Yuan asked this and walked to a corner of the room. He opened the lid of a wooden box that was placed on a prop. He reached in and fumbled around for a while, then took out something.

It's a raincoat that is folded neatly.

The witch's face was a little dark, but because of the gloomy sky, it was not very obvious.

"I didn't intend to wear it, I just wanted to try it now."

Wu said this, trying to appear calm.

As he said this, he reached out and took the raincoat from Yuan's hand.

After stretching it out, he put it on his body.

After putting on the raincoat, Wu's eyes were filled with gray and he couldn't see anything clearly.

Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw Wu wearing his raincoat backwards, with his entire face covered by the hood and only the back of his head exposed.

She reached out to help Wu straighten his raincoat, revealing his face.

Wu felt the raincoat on his body, which was almost weightless compared to the straw hat and raincoat, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional. This raincoat was a bit heavy, but it was quite light to wear.

"I'll go out and try it out to see if this thing is rainproof."

Wu put on the raincoat and felt the house for a while. After thinking for a while, he said this to Yuan.

Then, without waiting for Yuan to react, he walked straight out of the house.

Dive into the vast rain curtain.

In a short while, it disappeared from sight.

Yuan stood here waiting for a long time, but did not see Wu come back, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

Didn’t you say to give it a try?

How can this test take so long?
