On the second day, it became hot all of a sudden, and it was so hot that it made people restless.
Ning Yu left after lunch, and Jiang Fan couldn't figure out why this person had to choose a later date to start his journey.
As a result, Ning Yu said: "The best time to travel is when the divination comes out. It happens that I should pass by Heyan Town at night. There should be a river lantern festival there today, and I can still watch the excitement. I will rest there at night and continue on the road tomorrow morning."
They are so thoughtful, what else can Jiang Fan say
"Then take care of yourself along the way, and don't make yourself sick by looking at the scenery."
Ning Yu smiled, then turned to Xiaodong and said, "Junior Brother Yun, read the books I left for you slowly, don't rush to return them to me. I also left you two books on formations and two books on divination. , when you’re free, it’s also good to rummage through it.”
Jiang Fan immediately became vigilant: "Junior brother doesn't have the time to learn those miscellaneous things, does he?"
Xiaodong looked at Ning Yu, and then at his senior brother, feeling a bit in a dilemma.
It was kindness of Ning Yu to lend him a book. Books are precious, and borrowing books is even more difficult. You can't be rude to Ning Yu just because of this.
But my senior brother is also all for his own good, for fear that he will delay serious business.
"I'll watch it when I'm free."
Ning Yu laughed: "Okay. If there is anything you don't understand, you can just write to Tianji Mountain and ask me."
Jiang Fan's complexion became even uglier.
Fortunately, Ning Yu is finally leaving, thank God. Jiang Fan was always afraid that he would lead his junior brother astray.
It wasn't that Jiang Fan had any prejudice against the people in Tianji Mountain, but that now that his master was in retreat and his senior brother was not around, Jiang Fan felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he didn't dare to let his junior brother in the slightest.
"By the way, I also made a divination for Brother Mo." Ning Yu leaned closer to Xiaodong and said softly, "His trip this time is safe and sound, and he will be back soon, so you don't have to worry too much."
Xiaodong solemnly saluted and thanked Ning Yu.
Ning Yu walked very gracefully and did not let them see her off.
Xiaodong stood in the mountain gate and watched him go away. The strong mountain wind made his toga flutter, like a white crane flying away.
"Okay, let's go back."
After sending away a trouble, Jiang Fan felt relaxed.
"Senior brother Jiang, where did he go, senior brother? Is it far away? Just now senior brother Ning said that his trip was safe and sound. Does that mean it's not going well?"
Jiang Fan secretly scolded Ning Yu for being troublesome.
If you say that there is no danger, wouldn't you say it is smooth sailing
Fortunately, he patted his butt and left after speaking, and he had to clean up the mess himself.
"You've heard it all, there is no danger, it means that nothing will happen. Brother didn't go far this trip, and he will definitely come back this month. Don't think about scaring yourself all day long. Otherwise, Eldest Senior Brother will be angry when he comes back. How can I explain to him then?"
Xiaodong lowered his head disgruntled.
He was a little uneasy.
Jiang Fan turned to teach him a lesson: "You have to calm down, have you mastered the basic swordsmanship?"
"The last few moves are not very proficient."
"Hurry up, don't be distracted by other chores." After Jiang Fan finished speaking, he felt that his tone was a bit too heavy, and he slowed down and said, "It's not that you are not allowed to read miscellaneous books, but those things are only for entertainment. I think you can read those books whenever you have time, and remember not to lose your mind."
Xiaodong should come down.
He couldn't tell Brother Jiang that it was useful for him to read those books. The secret on his body made him feel a little guilty when facing his master and senior brother.
Jiang Fan raised his head and squinted his eyes to look at the sky: "This day is really evil, I don't know why it's so hot all of a sudden."
It was so hot that people panicked and frightened.
I always feel that the heat is not a good sign.
"It might rain tonight."
Xiaodong also felt that the heat was intense, and walked under the shade of a tree on the way back.
As a result, Senior Brother Jiang was right. In the evening, the sky became overcast, and layers of lead clouds seemed to weigh heavily on the top of the head. There was no wind on the mountain, which made people breathless.
Jiang Fan looked at the sky, and while taking people to collect medicinal herbs to dry, he gloated and said, "There must be a heavy rain coming. Hey, someone's lantern festival at night will not be able to be seen."
Xiaodong also helped, collecting the medicinal materials that were drying behind the stone pagoda one by one, putting them into baskets according to different types, and then carrying them back to the house. The last basket was about to be moved into the house, when the wind blew up outside, and the heavy raindrops of soybeans hit the ground, splashing a lot of dust.
Dust was flying outside, and there was an earthy smell in the wind that made people cough. The torrential rain fell as soon as it was said. Looking out of the window, there was a white mist outside. The force of the raindrops hitting the face was not small, and the face was painful.
Xiaodong quickly closed the window.
Jiang Fan deliberately came over to take a look. After all, it hasn't rained so much for several years, so I don't know if the house here is leaking or not. When he pushed the door open, Xiaodong almost surprised him. Jiang Fan wore a very large round bamboo hat with a pointed top on his head, so he didn't recognize who he was at first glance.
"Brother Jiang?"
Jiang Fan took off the bamboo hat and looked around the room: "Is there any rain?"
"No, it's raining so hard, senior brother, why do you need to come here for an extra trip?"
The sound of the rain hitting the roof was so loud that it drowned out their voices, and the two of them had to talk at the top of their voices in the room, as if they were arguing.
Jiang Fan nodded: "It's fine if there is no rain leak. I still have to go ahead, just because the house where the disciples of the outer sect live will leak. It rains so heavily, so don't go out at night, and rest quickly after practicing." Bar."
Xiaodong nodded and wrote it down, Jiang Fan put the hat on his head again and turned to go out.
Xiaodong lay down early after practicing. The sound of rain outside was so loud, but he fell asleep without much effort.
Before falling asleep, Xiaodong was still thinking in a daze, wondering if it was raining at the elder brother's place, and if he was drenched by the rain.
Thinking of this in his heart, Xiaodong only felt the sound of rain in his ears tightened again.
At night, it rained heavily in the Burial Sword Valley.
Fighting continued in Jianjian Valley for the past two days. Elder An, Master Luo and Feng Master Zhao were all dead, Master Wan, Elder Cao, and Elder Xu were seriously injured, and many of the remaining sect disciples were also involved. Many people actually died very quickly. Injustice, there were even a few who were crushed to death and injured when they were sleeping in the house at night when someone fought and the house collapsed.
However, Jin Mian, who can be said to have caused the turmoil in the sect, was lying safely on the high ground, recovering from his injuries under the careful care of Miss Wu.
It can be said that Miss Wu has a heart for Jin Mian. Her grandfather was also seriously injured in the melee for the elixir, but she didn't have time to visit. She just wandered around Jin Mian and searched for Mrs. Xu. The treasured panacea was used to please the sweetheart, which made Mrs. Xu stare and speechless with anger. (to be continued)
