The fire was fierce and the wind was strong, but in the middle of the night, just as Qin Wuyan said, the temperature dropped suddenly, and it started to rain lightly.
At first, the raindrops were small, but gradually, the rain became heavier.
In the end, it was so pouring that the people who were drenched couldn't even open their eyes.
At first, the guards were worried that the fire would spread to the place where they were stationed, but unexpectedly, the rain fell before the partition was dug.
The pouring rain extinguished the prairie fire little by little, and the smoke was billowing. Although they couldn't see the smoke, they could smell the smoke and dust in the air.
At dawn, the sky was dim, and the heavy rain still did not stop at all. The raindrops gathered into streams, flowing down from the mountains like washing, and the rainwater that merged into the ditches turned black and yellow in color.
Stained with grass ash and mud, the water flowed over the insteps, icy cold.
Qin Wuyan put on his coir raincoat, got on his horse and said, "Go back on the way back."
Deputy Commander Zhang refused: "Commander Qin, at least wait until the rain stops before going up the mountain to see how the bandits are doing..."
Hearing the sound of heavy rain, Qin Wuyan turned his head and glanced at the burned bare mountain, "Deputy Commander Zhang, the rain is so heavy and continuous, I don't know when it will stop.
If you have been stationed here, you are not afraid of landslides, mudslides will wash down, and our people will be swept away? "
Deputy Commander Zhang: "Yes..."
Qin Wuyan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him: "If Vice Commander Zhang feels uneasy, you can stay and wait until the wind stops and the rain stops, and then go to the cottage to see how many people are still alive.
It's just that the people under this commander are inconvenient to stay here and need to move to a safe place.
Ben Tong took the lead to leave. If Deputy Commander Zhang is willing to follow up, he will follow up. If he is not willing to follow up, he can stay here. "
Qin Wuyan flicked the reins, and the horse neighed and started to run quickly.
The more than one hundred guards who came with Qin Wuyan also rode away.
The muddy road was trampled by horseshoes and became more and more messy.
On the contrary, Deputy Commander Zhang had no idea, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know how to explain when he returned to the priest's mansion.
It was as if the plans of the priest's mansion and his own words and deeds were all calculated and controlled by Qin Wuyan, he was no different from a transparent person.
The most frightening thing about Qin Wuyan is not how good his kung fu is, but that his eyes are just looking at you quietly, as if he can see through your heart, leaving you nowhere to hide.
The guards around Qin Wuyan stayed by his side every step of the way, staring at every person in the priest's house around Qin Wuyan with their bows in their hands.
Deputy Commander Zhang couldn't find any chance to attack at all.
The captain of the guard looked at the hesitant Deputy Commander Zhang, and suggested: "Deputy Commander, why don't we move like Commander Qin, in case there is a real landslide and mudslides, it will be too late to move."
Deputy Commander Zhang refused: "He said there will be mudslides, so there will definitely be?"
Captain of the guard: "What if there is? Deputy Commander, Commander Qin can calculate that the sky is dry and the things are dry, and the fire will burn the mountain, and there will be heavy rain at midnight, so the fire will not spread to the place where we are stationed.
Now he said that the rain will not stop for a while, and it is predicted that there may be mudslides. We would rather believe it or not. If we stay here, the brothers are really injured. Commander Xia will investigate after returning. , it's not easy for you to explain..."
Deputy Commander Zhang: "..."
