Chapter 71: Storm in Post Office

After the valley rain, the weather had become a lot warmer.

But in the heat, the rainfall gradually increases, and sometimes it will even last for more than ten days.

When the rainstorm falls, the hot earth will gradually return to normal again.

At the edge of the desolate galloping Road, there stands a deserted post house, which seems to merge with the dark mountains and forests.

There are not just a few such post houses in the Fire Pass Country.

But this kind of area far away from the city has always been uninhabited. If someone dares to live in this lonely wilderness, in a few days, ferocious beasts will enter the house and eat people.

However, the mountains between the cities are high and the roads are far away. Those traveling merchants need to stay out of the rain and rest overnight.Fiind updated novels on no/v/elbin(.)co/m

So on the long road, there will be such unmanned post houses along the way.

Although it is uninhabited and not managed, the house is like an empty room for business travelers to rest.

When the business travelers check in, they will also consciously maintain the facilities of the post house and clean it before leaving, so the post house is not dirty.

By this time, it was evening.

The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, and pale lightning flickered in the clouds.

The light among the mountains is gloomy, and it is not dark yet, but the road has become blurred and dim. The cold wind, whistling in the wilderness, was a precursor of the coming rainstorm.

But in such bad weather, two figures appear far away on the desolate road.

A little girl about ten years old, with a dark blue sword on her back, looked serious. The long silver hair fell, but there were a pair of sharp animal ears on the top of the head.

Obviously young, but the little girl has a cold and gorgeous temperament, just like the faint plum blossoms proudly blooming in the winter wind.

And next to the little girl was a huge white wolf. It appeared much bigger than the ordinary wild wolves that could be found in the mountain. Walking on the deserted road with the little girl who was carrying the sword, the white wolf carried a hint of dignity in his dark golden pupils that people did not dare to look at directly.

The appearance of one girl and one beast broke the tranquility in the wilderness.

The little girl looked at the post office that was almost integrated with the night ahead and asked, "Lord Wolf God, there is a post office in front of us. Do we want to go in and have a rest?"

The huge white wolf nodded and said, "It's going to rain. It's great to have a shelter from the rain. Let's rest here tonight."

With that, one girl and one wolf walked towards the post office.

This post house has no courtyard wall, and the house is directly built on the roadside.

After opening the closed wooden door and entering, the space in the house is huge, and the roof of the beam is extremely high. If you are not picky, it is not a problem to squeeze 40 or 50 people overnight at the same time.

Behind the house, there is a barn with a canopy to cover the rain.

The little girl looked in the direction of the road and frowned slightly.

About a quarter of an hour later, a group of businessmen appeared before her.

The number of people is not small. A group of about 20 businessmen drove five huge beasts out of the rain.

The beasts have fat bodies, short limbs, rough skins, and sharp horns above their thick nostrils, which look a little ferocious.

Xiao Ai has seen this kind of beast, named rhinoceros, with a large and heavy body and a gentle personality. Even if they encounter lions and tigers in the wilderness, the rhinoceros will not be as scared as ordinary pack horses, so many traders will raise it as a pack animal.

Now the one who drives five rhinoceros here is an ordinary commercial team.

They were all dressed in coir raincoats and rushed in the rainstorm. But the wind and rain were violent, and even wearing coir raincoats, they were still drenched with rain. When they saw the light of the fire in the post in front of them, no one was surprised.

After all, it's normal for them to meet travelers at the roadside post office.

The merchants drove five rhinoceros to the gate of the post office. They were preparing to disassemble the goods on the rhino's back, but they saw a girl and a wolf in the house.

The huge white wolf lay by the fire, his eyes slightly closed, and seemed to be asleep. But that huge body size made people dare not ignore him.

On the side of the White Wolf, the young girl was carrying a dark blue ancient sword, quietly turning over and roasting the barbecue on the fire. When the people stood outside the door, she just glanced coldly and looked away, as if she was not interested in the people.

But the girl's indifferent gaze made everyone take a sharp breath and feel great pressure.

In such a wild rainstorm, there is such a strange person and a wolf...

The businessmen looked at each other with some uneasiness in their eyes.

The leader hesitated for a few seconds. Finally, he walked into the door and cupped his hands, "We are passing merchants, and we are going to Baishi city. But there is a rainstorm today, and it is difficult to travel in the wilderness, I wonder if you can make it convenient for us to take shelter from the rain?"

The leader of the caravan lowered his posture for fear of offending the little girl in front of him.

In such a wilderness, when you meet such a strange person and wolf, any normal people would know that they must be extraordinary.

Without this violent storm, they didn't dare to ask, but directly drove the pack animals away.

The way of businessmen has always been to prefer camping than to annoy people of unknown origin.

But now the rainstorm is pouring, and this post house is the only place nearby that can take shelter from the rain. The leader of the caravan had to ask nervously.

After hearing his request, the little girl beside the fire just glanced coldly and said, "This post is built here to facilitate merchants. Uncles, you can do whatever you want, don't worry about me."

With that, the little girl ignored them and continued to look after her barbecue.

The leader of the caravan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly thanked, and then asked everyone to quickly unload the beast of the burden on its back and move it into the house, and then drove the beast to the rear corral to shelter from the rain.

After all this, the merchants returned to the main house and carefully lit the firewood.

The whole process was cautious, and the businessmen tried to keep their footsteps and conversations low, for fear of disturbing the girl and the wolf nearby.
