"If I say you don't need it, then you don't need it." Qian Fanji said with a serious face.
"Master Qian..."
Qianfanji simply walked away.
Luo Xuan stood there in a daze, holding the straw raincoat.
"Put it on." Ye Qianning said.
Luo Xuan silently put on the straw raincoat.
Ye Qianning turned his head to look at the corridor. The rainstorm was coming too fast and there were not enough raincoats prepared. There were not even twenty people with raincoats.
"Little girl, the rain is coming so fast, you have to be careful." Old Feng walked over with the raincoat that Ye Qianning had just given him.
"General Feng, put on your raincoat. We're leaving now."
"I think this thing is soft and I'm afraid it will be damaged by the rain."
"...This is for keeping out the rain." Ye Qianning took the raincoat and stretched it out: "Mr. Feng, you should put it on."
"All right."
Mr. Feng fumbled to put it on. It looked light and thin, but it was actually a bit warmer when he put it on. He put on the hat and tied it up. It was much more comfortable to wear than a straw raincoat. If it could really keep out the rain, it would be a good thing.
Xiliuyuan and his group also arrived. He glanced at Mr. Feng, Mr. Chen and Ye Qianning, and his eyes moved slightly.
Ye Qianning raised his eyes, glanced at him indifferently, and then looked away.
"Everything is ready, we can set off." Xiang Minghou shouted.
Elder Chen nodded: "Let's go."
"Set off."
With a loud shout, everyone rushed into the rainstorm.
The wind was stronger than before. Old Chen rushed into the rainstorm, his body swaying slightly.
"Master." Ye Qianning held him tightly.
Elder Chen steadied himself and said, "It's okay, let's go."
Ye Qianning tightened his grip a little.
Luo Xuan held onto Elder Chen's other arm and said, "Elder Chen, I'll carry you on my back."
"No need. It's not time for me yet." Old Chen insisted.
In the back, Feng Lao, Wei Zheng and some guards also went into the rain. Wei Zheng stayed close to Feng Lao, fearing that something might happen to him.
Xiliuyuan walked into the rain and rubbed his raincoat repeatedly with his fingers. It was indeed rainproof. The seemingly light rainstorm fell on his body, but he did not feel cold. Instead, he felt slightly warmer when wearing it.
He had never seen such material before. She actually gave him one of the four raincoats. He didn't expect that.
The mountain road was very muddy and the walking speed was slow.
It usually takes half a day to get from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain. At the current speed, it will take at least a day to get down the mountain.
It's already afternoon, so we have to grope in the dark.
Xiang Minghou led seven or eight people in front, Qian Fanji led a small number of people to walk outside Ye Qianningchen Lao, and Gu Shuo led a dozen people to walk behind.
Ye Qianning took a look around and found that some people were walking in the rain. If they hadn't taken some pills in advance, they really wouldn't be able to hold on.
The mud was so thick that it almost reached my ankles with every step I took. Fortunately, the soil was not particularly sticky, otherwise I would not be able to pull my feet out.
The heavy rain continued with no sign of stopping. The wind was also strong, about level 6 or 7, so strong that people couldn't open their eyes.
“Clatter…”
There was a huge noise.
The people at the back immediately turned around and formed a circle around everyone.
"It was the heavy rain that washed away the mud and rocks above." Gu Shuo said.
Ye Qianning looked over and saw that the area not far from where they had just passed was blocked by a mudslide. If it had been a few minutes later, they would probably have been blocked behind.
It is very dangerous to go to the mountain during heavy rain.
"Everyone speed up." Gu Shuo shouted towards the front.
"yes."
"It really needs to be faster." said Old Chen.
The sliding of mud and rocks is too dangerous. Even if one has great martial arts skills, he cannot dodge it in this heavy rain.
No one spoke along the way, and everyone quickened their pace.
When it was dark, the group had only reached half of the crying city, and the heavy rain still did not stop.
Ye Qianning thought that the wooden house on the mountain must have been destroyed, fortunately they did not stay and left immediately.
It was even more difficult to walk in the dark and heavy rain, so Ye Qianning took out a dozen night pearls and gave them to Du Yi.
Du Yi distributed the night pearls, and this area lit up.
At the front, Xiang Minghou and his accompanying guards took the lead with three night pearls, lighting up the front very brightly, and everyone walked faster.
Xiliuyuan was wearing a raincoat, so even in the heavy rain, his body was wet, only his feet were stained with mud.
It seemed like this was the first time he was traveling in such a hurry. Then he saw the light of the night pearl, lowered his head, and saw the mess under his feet. He just frowned slightly.
"Master, let me carry you on my back." Zhufeng said in a low voice.
Xiliuyuan said nothing, just glanced at him coldly without stopping.
Zhufeng followed silently.
Sang Yan and Qian Fanji walked together. Neither of them had a raincoat, and the simple protection they had taken before had long been blown away by the wind.
Now I feel like a drowned rat, with the rain washing my face and it is difficult for me to see the road.
Sang Yan felt that his face was about to be soaked, but his body did not feel too cold. Logically speaking, after being in the rain for so long, a person's body temperature should have dropped significantly.
He raised his hand and rubbed his arm. It was warm, his whole body was warm, and he didn't feel cold. It seemed something was wrong.
"Qianfanji, do you feel cold?" he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"fine."
"Are you okay? I think there's something wrong with me."
"how?"
"I don't feel cold, my body is warm. I think I have a fever." Sang Yan touched his forehead, which was slightly warm, and his palms also felt hot.
"Having a fever in the rain can be fatal. Third Prince, please be careful." Qian Fanji said in a cool voice.
"...Do you have any conscience at all?"
"If you're not going to die, leave quickly." Qian Fanji didn't want to say more and took a few quick steps.
Sang Yan raised his foot and followed, his hand constantly touching his forehead. He felt that the heavy rain hitting his body was warm. Was he delirious due to fever?
As night fell, no one dared to stay. Fortunately, the rainstorm subsided after dark, but the wind was still strong.
On the way down the mountain, we encountered a mudslide blocking the road, but we were able to get through it.
As dawn was about to break, the group finally reached the foot of the mountain.
After nightfall, the heavy rain turned into light rain. The wind continued all night and the temperature dropped by several degrees.
After reaching the foot of the mountain, we walked for about another hour before we dared to sit down and rest. After walking in the rain all night, everyone was exhausted.
It was still drizzling, so they set up a simple tent to shelter from the rain and sat down to take a short rest.
Some of the food in the backpack was soaked by rain and could not be eaten. Ye Qianning could not take things from the space in front of so many people here, so he had to secretly give some to Old Chen and Old Feng, so that the two elderly people could have a bite to relieve their physical strength.
Old Chen didn't eat, but just reminded Ye Qianning not to attract attention, and that he could still hold on.
Ye Qianning stuffed it into his mouth, blocking everyone's view: "No need for Dad, Master, you should at least have a few bites."
He is almost a hundred years old and has been walking in the rain all night. It makes people very worried.
There is still some distance from the foot of the mountain to the town, and it will take a whole day to walk. How can we do it without eating?
Mr. Chen couldn't stand her stubbornness and took it and took a few bites.
It was different for Old Feng. When he saw Ye Qianning secretly feeding him food, he immediately hid it and didn't dare let anyone see it. He felt very happy.
The little girl brought him food on her own, obviously to show her kindness to him. She hid the food secretly and took a bite without anyone seeing.
I didn’t think much about it at the moment, I just felt that it was a blessing to have someone thinking of me, and it was worth suffering this night!
Xiang Minghou has been away from home all year round in recent years, and it is common for him to not have a meal for a day or two. He can regain his energy by taking a short rest.
Qianfan Ji and Gu Shuo were in good condition, only Sang Yan didn't look very good. He had traveled around and suffered hardships when he was young, but he had never experienced anything like today, where he was drenched in heavy rain and had to walk against the wind, walking straight for almost a whole day.
And he hadn't stopped yet, his whole body was wet and I was afraid that his skin had turned white from being soaked.
Old Chen, Old Feng, Ye Qianning and Xiliuyuan were wearing raincoats and were not wet. After walking so far, they were inevitably panting and tired.
With the help of space, Ye Qianning's physical strength recovered quickly, and he had recovered in half an hour.
She stood up and shook off the mud under her feet. The road was extremely difficult to walk on on rainy days. After Beili settled down, she asked people to start building an asphalt road leading to the Crescent Moon Sect.
It is also convenient to travel on rainy days, but as for other places, they can only knock on the door. After all, they are not trading now. Large-scale construction is obviously a good thing, but it will also arouse suspicion and cause trouble.
Xiliuyuan stood not far away. The ground was muddy and even though it was covered with some dry grass, the grass was wet, so he did not sit down.
Ye Qianning's eyes fell on his feet which were also covered in mud, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was obsessed with mysophobia. If he encountered this kind of situation a few more times, he would be able to cure any mysophobia.
The people from the ancient city's Jade Fort were taken to the back. Ye Qianning only had someone feed Yu Zhong half a pill and Yu Shan a small half to keep him alive.
Although Qian Fanji found out some of the things that happened in the past with the Qian family, that was not all. People like them who are cunning and treacherous will always keep the most beneficial things to save their lives and will not easily reveal everything.
This rainstorm was an opportunity. The rain had been pouring for so long that I had already felt dazed. As soon as it stopped, I fell to the ground and couldn't even get up.
Yuzhong was stronger than Yushan. Seeing that Yushan was still weak and that the group was in a bad situation, he couldn't say what he wanted.
There is nothing to eat, let alone medicine.
He could only watch his nephew dying, unable to do anything.
"Qian Ning, Mr. Chen, are you okay?" Xiang Minghou walked over.
"Dad, I'm fine."
"You don't have to worry about me. The raincoat Qian Ning gave you can keep out the wind and rain and keep you warm. You can still stay dry all over." Old Taoist Chen.
Xiang Minghou nodded and said, "Rest for a cup of tea and continue on the journey at daybreak. We will try to reach the town before dark."
"Don't worry about me, I can still keep up." Old Chen looked at the people in front who were not even wearing straw raincoats and said, "Get there early so they can have a good rest."
"Okay." Xiang Minghou nodded and raised his hand to touch Ye Qianning's head.
"Dad, I'm fine too." Ye Qianning looked up.
Xiang Minghou rubbed his hand, withdrew it, turned and walked away.
Ye Qianning looked and found that some of the guards following Xiang Minghou did not have raincoats. The rainstorm came too quickly and they did not think of making raincoats or the like.
Several items in the space were made on the island. There was a lot of rain on the island and fierce waves on the mountain behind it. She realized that after this experience, raincoats would be indispensable in the future.
After resting for about an hour, everyone set off to continue their journey.
The rain stopped completely around noon. Except for the difficult road to walk on, everyone else looked fine. Only the two people from the ancient city of Yubao looked extremely pale, as if they could not bear it.
He fell all the way and was covered in mud. In the end, Yuzhong knelt down and begged for help. Qianfanji then ordered someone to lift his head and another to carry him away by his feet.
The rain stopped at noon and the journey became much faster. Near dusk, the group entered the border town and found an inn to stay in.
The towns outside the border are very poor, and the inns are somewhat simple. In addition, many people from the four countries passed through the border town in the past few days, and conflicts were inevitable when people from the martial arts world stayed there. Many rooms were affected, and many doors and windows were missing.
There was only one inn in the town, and everyone stayed there with difficulty.
Ye Qianning took out the food from the space and asked Du Yi to send it to the kitchen. After traveling for a day and a night, Old Chen was very tired. After washing up, he went to bed to rest without eating.
Mr. Feng hadn't experienced such a thing in many years. Although he was tired, he was in good spirits. After entering the inn and washing up, he ordered a large table of food and drinks, and he felt very comfortable eating and drinking.
The accompanying guards had a hearty meal before washing up and resting. They were all in good health. Except for the people in the ancient city of Yubao who caught a cold and had a high fever, no one in their group caught a cold.
Upstairs room.
The door of the room where Xiliuyuan stayed was in good condition, and the room had been cleaned. Overall, it was fine, except that half of the window was missing.
Zhu Feng looked at it and shook his head: "Master, this room...how about I buy a house in the city and let you stay there for a day?"
"Let's sit here." Xiliuyuan glanced at the table and chairs but did not sit down.
Zhufeng hesitated to speak and walked to the door to ask the waiter to prepare clean water and towels.
"Master, more than half of the twenty or so shadow guards in secret have a high fever. Master, please see..." Zhufeng turned around, thought about it, and couldn't help but say it out loud.
"More than half?" Xiliuyuan frowned.
"yes."
"Where are Marquis Xiang Ming and his group?" Xiliuyuan asked.
Zhu Feng was a little embarrassed to say: "No one has caught a cold."
Xi Liuyuan pondered for a moment, clasped his hands together, and gently twirled the white jade ring on his thumb: "Pills."
Zhu Feng was puzzled at first, but after a few seconds he suddenly understood. Ye Qianning had given each of them a pill yesterday. The shadow guards in the dark never showed themselves to the public and had not taken the pills given by Ye Qianning, so...
No wonder, even Mr. Chen, who is nearly a hundred years old, did not catch a cold. When they walked in the rain, they felt it, but they did not feel the coldness of the rain on their bodies.
"Miss Ye's elixir is very magical. I don't know who made it."
"Allow them to go for treatment." Xiliuyuan also wanted to know what kind of elixir was so magical.
She had studied the pill when she gave it to him yesterday. It had a pleasant fragrance and was non-toxic. Ye Qianning's expression when he left...
She said if you have doubts, don’t eat it, because if you fall down on the road, there will be no one to carry you forward.
Xiliuyuan swallowed the pill in front of Ye Qianning. Although he had doubts about her, at that moment, he believed her.
Zhufeng saluted: "Yes."
Xiliuyuan can still remember the taste of the elixir. It was not the kind of medicine he had ever seen. It had only a light fragrance and a slightly sweet taste, but he couldn't tell what the ingredients were.
The physical fitness and internal strength of the shadow guards of Xiyan were all top-notch. They had been in the rainstorm for so long that they all caught colds, but those who had taken the pills were all intact.
The seemingly inconspicuous elixir is very powerful.
