The torrential rain continued for four days, and instead of letting up, it got even heavier.
News has arrived that many areas outside Nanjing have been hit by floods, with roads submerged, collapsed, and destroyed…
Many areas within the city have also been flooded!
The three of them were thus trapped inside Jinling City!
As time passed, Liu Yingying grew increasingly anxious.
I wonder how Baotian Town is doing?
I wonder if Lord Shen is safe and sound now?
She had promised him that she would deliver his message, but now she was trapped in Jinling City and could not leave.
Every minute that is wasted increases the danger to Lord Shen!
However, there is something even more troubling for Liu Yingying right now…
If this rain continues, a disaster is bound to occur, and signs of it are already emerging.
Many people from disaster-stricken areas outside the city have moved their families into the city, and officials and wealthy businessmen in the city have also opened soup kitchens to distribute soup.
Early in the morning, Liu Yingying felt the air in her room was incredibly humid and stuffy, so she simply went downstairs and found a tea table by the window to sit down.
He asked the waiter for another pot of tea and drank it absentmindedly.
Perhaps because it was raining outside and everyone had nowhere to go, the lobby was packed with people even early in the morning.
Four young people were sitting at a table behind her, each with a bundle in their hands.
They looked like they had just fled from outside the city.
"The weather this year is really strange. It's already autumn, yet it's still raining so heavily. It's abnormal! Very abnormal!"
"Hmm, this is not a good sign. I think... the world is about to descend into chaos again!" The youngest of the four said with a sigh, shaking his head.
"Shh! You can't just say things like that, it could get out and get you beheaded!"
Then there was a moment of silence.
After a while, the young man in blue robes sighed deeply again; "I heard that several towns outside Jinling City have suffered from disasters, causing countless refugees. How can this be allowed to continue!"
Someone sitting opposite scoffed, "What can be done? The common people have a hard life!"
Liu Yingying silently sipped her tea, listening to the conversation of those people, when something suddenly popped into her mind!
A major disaster is always followed by a major epidemic!
It's a small matter that they are currently trapped in Jinling City, but it would be fatal if a large-scale epidemic broke out!
At that time, food, medicine and other supplies will be in great shortage.
Although she has money, she is afraid that prices will skyrocket and supplies will become scarce!
Fortunately, they still have the in-game store; perhaps it's time to earn some more points...
As Liu Yingying was pondering how to earn points, she heard a sticky voice above her head, "Little lady... why are you sitting here drinking tea alone... do you want me to keep you company?"
Liu Yingying looked up and saw a pig standing in front of her, followed by two stick insect-like attendants.
Liu Yingying frowned immediately, but the pig sat down right in front of her, staring at her lecherously, its mouth practically drooling.
"Young lady, why aren't you saying anything? Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person..."
"I don't need anyone to accompany me, please leave!" Liu Yingying said coldly.
But the pig was completely oblivious. "Young lady, judging from your accent, you don't sound like a local from Jinling City. You must be a refugee here too."
Seeing that Liu Yingying did not speak, he continued to introduce himself: "My name is Zhou Peng, and I am the young master of Ruyi Cloth Shop. If you follow me, I guarantee you will live a life of luxury..." As he spoke, he tried to touch her inappropriately.
Liu Yingying dodged his groping hands, then suddenly had an idea. She smiled at Zhou Peng and said, "Young Master Zhou is right. I also feel that we hit it off immediately. But there are too many people here. Why don't we go somewhere quiet to have a proper chat?"
"Okay, okay!"
Zhou Peng never expected the beauty in front of him to be so cooperative. Her eyes were squinting as she laughed on her pig-like face.
"Shall we go then?" Liu Yingying got up and walked outside, a cold smile playing on her lips when Zhou Peng couldn't see her.
Xue Ye happened to see her back as he went downstairs, and without thinking twice, he followed her...
Zhu Pengjia led Liu Yingying to an abandoned city god temple in the south of the city with ease.
This was clearly not the first time he had done something like this.
This place is far from residential areas, surrounded on three sides by barren groves of trees, a place where even stray dogs rarely come.
Two stick insect followers stayed outside as lookouts, while Zhou Peng rubbed his hands together, a lewd grin on his face, and followed behind Liu Yingying.
"Beautiful lady...aren't you hot? How about...we take off our clothes?" He said, reaching out his groping hand to grab her clothes.
Unexpectedly, her wrist was grabbed instead. "You're right, this is indeed a good place, I'm very satisfied..."
Zhou Peng was completely oblivious to the chill in her tone, and said with undisguised delight, "Really? That's wonderful... Beauty, let me kiss you!"
He was already incredibly impatient.
Seeing his lustful state, Liu Yingying's eyes flashed with a coldness.
"You seem to know this place very well. Tell me honestly, how many women have you brought here?"
Zhou Peng felt a sharp pain in his wrist, but he took it as just a playful moment and didn't pay much attention to it.
He still grinned and said, "There's no one else, just you!"
"Oh, really? It seems you're not going to tell the truth..." Liu Yingying drawled out the last syllable, and increased the pressure on her hand.
"Hiss~" Zhou Peng gasped in pain; "My beauty... ahh!"
"How many?" A fierce glint appeared in Liu Yingying's beautiful eyes.
"Five...five...beauty, let go!" Zhou Peng finally realized that she wasn't joking with him!
Liu Yingying acted as if she hadn't heard him at all, and with a sudden crack, she made a sound.
Zhou Peng's wrist bone was broken in half...
—Boom!
Outside, lightning and thunder continued, and the constant roaring noise largely drowned out Zhou Peng's shouts inside the City God Temple.
To the two attendants outside, it was nothing more than a playful remark by Young Master Zhou…
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 1000 points!]
At this moment, Zhou Peng had already fainted from the torment of despair.
Liu Yingying kicked him, took out a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe her hands, and looked up to see the two stick insect followers.
"Tsk...why are you only coming in now?"
The two attendants glanced at Zhou Peng on the ground, then exchanged a look, both utterly shocked.
"What did you do to our young master?"
Liu Yingying didn't bother arguing with them at all, and swung her spiked club from behind her back...
Ahhh!
Don't come any closer!
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 500 points!]
Looking at the two unconscious attendants on the ground, Liu Yingying put away her spiked club and then looked up at the outside of the City God Temple.
The rain seems to have lessened a bit... but I wonder when Xue Ye arrived?
