Chapter 54 Heavy Rain is Coming
After breakfast, the team set off immediately.
After walking for an hour, the sky became gloomy, as if the sky was about to fall down, and it was very stuffy.
Su Yue looked up at the sky. The sky was so gloomy in the morning, and she was afraid that heavy rain would come soon.
Is the rain finally going to fall?
Su Yue looked at the road ahead with her mental power. There were mountains on both sides of the road. If a heavy rain came, there would be nowhere to hide.
"Yu'er, it might rain heavily. Should we find a place to stop first?" Murong Li couldn't help but ask Su Yue when he saw this scene.
"Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Let's divide the work. You lead the others to find a place, preferably a cave halfway up the mountain."
The rain is likely to be quite heavy, and I'm afraid I'll get flooded if I park on the roadside.
Murong Li's expression was heavy: "Okay, I'll go find it right away, you have to be careful."
It doesn't matter to him if he's alone, he can just find a place to hide. But with the Su family and the Yun family around, he can't just sit back and watch.
His grandmother is also part of the Yun family. Because of some unpleasantness regarding Yunyan's matter, he hasn't visited her until now.
Let’s go see her while it’s raining.
"Miss, Fourth Master, let's stop." Just then, Leader Qin and Leader Zhang came back to ask them.
It seems that Su Yue and his friend are the ones in charge of this team.
Murong Li: "Okay, you two go make the arrangements, and find two people who are good at martial arts to help me find a place."
"I'll go with you." Su Qiwen stepped forward first.
"No, brother, please stay here. I have something more important for you to take people to do." Su Yue immediately stopped Su Qiwen.
"good."
Su Qiwen didn't say much.
"Then let's go and make arrangements first." After hearing this, leaders Qin and Zhang left immediately without further delay.
Then Murong Li also flew away.
In this team, he didn't care about his kung fu at all, and outsiders had no chance to see it. If someone wanted to get close to the exile team, they would be dealt with by the secret guards hiding in the dark.
Even the remaining eight secret guards sent by the prince were killed silently by them.
The people sent by the emperor thought that those people had gone back to report.
Su Yue looked at the branches scattered across the road, and she already had a plan in mind.
Once the rain starts, it will definitely be heavy and will not stop for a while. They cannot be without dry firewood.
Not to mention lighting, even fire for cooking is essential.
She asked Su Qiwen to stay so that he could lead people to collect firewood.
Now we have to collect firewood!
Imminent.
"Brother, take the others to collect firewood. Collect as much as you can."
"Okay, big brother, I'll go right away." Obviously Su Qiwen had thought of it too.
Su Qiwen turned around and asked someone to pick it up.
Everyone was doing what they were supposed to do in an orderly manner. After Su Yue made all the arrangements, she immediately covered the entire area with her mental power to see if she could find a suitable place to shelter from the rain.
In her mental power, she could see Murong Li jumping in the mountains. He was like an agile leopard, shuttling through the mountains.
The two officers who followed were left far behind, and were still panting from exhaustion.
The Su family members led by Su Qiwen had already picked up several large bundles of firewood and tied them up and stood them all together.
Leaders Qin and Zhang were arranging the exiles to make preparations, cutting bamboo and trees to make simple stretchers.
Some of those who had fever yesterday have not fully recovered yet. They can still walk on flat ground, but they cannot climb mountains. Those with serious illness have to be carried on stretchers, while those with milder illnesses have to walk on their own with crutches.
The child was carried on his back.
Half an hour later, Murong Li came back first and went to find Su Yue as soon as he came back.
"Yuer, I found a cave halfway up the mountain about a mile from here. The cave is quite big and can easily accommodate all of us. The rain is about to fall, so let's go quickly."
"good."
In fact, Su Yue had already seen it with her mental power, and also saw Murong Li asked the two officers to stay there and pull out the weeds at the entrance of the cave.
After Murong Li explained the location to Leaders Qin and Zhang, he led the Su family up the mountain.
Among the Su family, only the eldest lady and concubine Zhang were weak, so they were carried on the backs of the eldest and second masters respectively as they climbed.
The old lady climbed up with the help of others.
Needless to say, the old marquis was in very good health and could climb very quickly by himself without any help from anyone.
A group of people came to the front of the cave in such a mighty manner.
"Mom and Dad, you guys stay outside and watch. I'll go in first to see what's going on inside the cave and then find a better place."
As soon as Su Qiwen came up, he looked at the cave, and without waiting for Uncle Su to say anything, he took a stick and jumped into the cave.
The weeds in front of the cave have been pulled out, revealing a wide cave.
Su Yue's spiritual power has penetrated into the cave. It is indeed very large and can accommodate four or five hundred people without any problem. However, it is bumpy and uneven, full of weeds, and of course there are some poisonous insects, snakes and ants.
But the little ones heard the noise at the door and ran away to hide.
When Su Yue saw this, she just smiled in her heart. It was a good opportunity to catch a big fish and have a few meals.
Thinking about food, if I stay here for a few days, the food I have stored may not be enough.
I have to go hunt some and bring some back, and mix some of what's in the space into it.
Su Yue looked at the mountain again. The mountain was also very tall, so she was not worried that the cave would collapse after the heavy rain.
Su Yue then called over Murong Li and a few of the Su family's servants, and said to Grandpa Su, "Dad, please arrange for Grandpa and the others to rest inside. Once inside, make sure to light a fire. There are poisonous insects, snakes, and ants in the innermost part of the cave, so don't go near them. We're going out to hunt a little, so we'll probably have to stay here for a few days. I'm worried everyone won't have anything to eat."
Uncle Su looked up at the sky and nodded, "Then go quickly and be careful."
"Protect Yue'er."
Uncle Su stared at Murong Li again and said.
Murong Li nodded.
But he was thinking in his heart, if he was asked to protect Su Yue, he didn't know who would protect whom.
As they were talking, members of the Su family entered the cave one after another.
"Let's go quickly." Murong Li urged Su Yue, not knowing what he was doing and looking dazed.
Su Yue came back to her senses. She had just been using her mental power to look at Su Qiwen, and only withdrew her mental power when she saw that he was fine.
"Okay, let's go."
Su Yue and Murong Li hurried down the mountain with a few people. Leader Zhang and Leader Qin also came up with their people. Seeing them coming down the mountain, Leader Qin asked in confusion: "Miss, Fourth Master, is there anything else going on down the mountain?"
Su Yue said quickly, "I don't know how long we'll have to stay here. Let's go hunt some prey first, or we might run out of food."
"Oh, I haven't thought about this yet. It's the eldest lady and the fourth master who have thought of it carefully." Leader Qin suddenly remembered that they didn't have much food, so he quickly called a few servants and went down the mountain with Su Yue and the others.
