Shen Yi's Darkness and Depression

Chapter 498

"God has eyes!!!"

"It's raining, it's finally raining."

"There is no unparalleled road~"

"It's saved, now we're saved."

"Heaven is above, gods are above~"

……

Yun Guan and Ze Fenglin rode on the road while holding umbrellas. The light rain made the people beside the road smile.

Some people open their mouths and look up to the sky just to taste the taste of rainwater, sucking the nectar greedily like the earth that has been thirsty for a season.

Some people were moved to shed tears, mixed with rain water to irrigate dry skin, it seems to be able to wash away the dark and reveal white jade fat.

Others knelt on the ground and kowtowed, for fear that the gods or the Dragon King would think that they were dishonest and chase away the raining clouds.

No one wants to see the ground cracked, the sun scorched, and the flowers and trees falling into the fate of withering and dying.

As soon as we left Qingzhou City, it started to rain. Yun Wan and his party seemed to be rushing under the clouds that would rain. Although it was light rain, it still affected the speed of the convoy.

"What's the matter?" Concubine Zhuang heard the wailing of the common people and didn't know what happened.

"Reporting to Madam, there has been a long-term drought in the northwest, especially since summer, and it hasn't even rained at all." Ze Fenglin reported truthfully.

"Goodness, goodness, long drought meets nectar, I only hope that all people in the world will be safe and well, and stay away from disasters." Concubine Zhuang shed tears of sympathy while twisting the beads. Although she couldn't see the hunger and thirst of the people clearly, she loved them The inner desire to pray for rain is very clear.

"Ma'am, before leaving, Elder Zhao told you not to let you cry anymore." Before leaving, Ze Fenglin went to Renyitang to grab some tonics for his grandmother, and asked about Concubine Zhuang's eye disease by the way.

"Anyway... I can't see anything clearly, it's okay~" Concubine Zhuang almost blurted out the word Bengong, she didn't want to reveal her identity on the way and cause trouble.

"It's good to rest and recuperate more, Madam don't need to worry." Ze Fenglin comforted.

"Well, I hope so, hurry up, hey~" Concubine Zhuang sighed meaningfully.

Ze Fenglin got a carriage this morning, but Yunwan refused to take it, so he sent it back. In fact, he was quite willing to ride side by side with his master. With the drizzle, it was as comfortable as a mountain tour.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Ze Fenglin didn't hear Yun Wan speak for a long time.

"Well, I'm a little tired." Yun Wan felt dizzy when she woke up in the morning. The inn where she rested last night was in a good environment, but she accepted the fact that she tossed and turned all night without closing her eyes.

"I told you to take the car, but you didn't listen, why don't you take a ride with Madam for a while, and you should rest your feet." Ze Fenglin leaned out and wanted to touch Yun Guan's forehead, he was afraid that the person in front of him would not know because of the wind and cold since.

"What for?" Yun Wan dodged Ze Fenglin's hand in horror.

"Ah? I'm afraid you're suffering from a cold." Ze Fenglin explained shyly.

"It's a hot day, how could I suffer from a cold?" Yun Wan rolled her eyes at Ze Fenglin.

"Master, why do you have red spots on your neck?" Ze Fenglin asked after looking at it for a long time.

"What red spot?" Yun Wan stroked her neck and felt nothing.

"Looks like mosquito bites, isn't it itchy?" Ze Fenglin got off his horse and took a closer look at Yun Wan's rein.

"Don't be like this, it's bad to be seen by Madam, there are so many people behind." Yun Wan's cheeks flushed immediately.

"Observe carefully, it doesn't hurt or itch, how can there be so many red spots?" Ze Fenglin felt a little worried when he saw more than ten small red spots on Yunwan's fair neck.

"Well, it's okay, Linzi, don't worry about it." Yun Wan straightened up quickly and drove the horse forward. Although she knew that Concubine Zhuang couldn't see, the dozens of people serving around her were all very discerning. Bao Buqi had a servant who knew their master and apprentice tell Concubine Zhuang about it, causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

"Officer, have pity on me~" An old man lay dying beside the grass.

"Old man, what's the matter?" Ze Fenglin kindly stepped forward and was concerned.

"Give me something to eat. Although it's raining heavily, I've already been hungry for several meals." The old man got up tremblingly and grabbed Ze Fenglin and refused to let go.

"Old man, wait a moment." Ze Fenglin easily broke free from the old man's grasp. For a person who was too hungry and had no energy but to beg, seeing a person in fine clothes was like seeing a god.

"Officer, don't go, please." The old man got up and wanted to chase Ze Fenglin, but he couldn't stand still because of his weakness, so he knelt down on the side of the road.

Ze Fenglin hurried over to help the old man after taking the food, and gave him a roast chicken and a pot of wine, "Here~"

"Thank you, thank you~" The old man casually grabbed the roast chicken and gnawed on it, mumbled words of thanks as he ate and drank.

"Master, what's the matter?" Zhuang Concubine heard Ze Fenglin's voice outside the car window, and made the palace servants stop.

"This old man fainted from hunger. Fortunately, we are passing by. Just eat something. Madam, there is no need to worry." Ze Fenglin suddenly felt sad, wondering how many people suffered from the drought.

"Then give him more food, it's not easy." Concubine Zhuang was kind-hearted even when she didn't believe in Buddhism when she was young.

"Mrs. Xie, please show kindness and take in the little one." The old man immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

"Don't be like this, old man. We are in a hurry and going to a far away place." Ze Fenglin hurriedly helped the old man up.

"Exactly, we are going to the Western Regions, so we cannot take you in." Concubine Zhuang politely declined.

"Madam, madam, please do me a favor. I'm just an older brother. I have nothing to worry about. I can go anywhere for my food." The old man burst into tears as he spoke. Unexpectedly, my father and I came to Qingzhou to escape from the famine, but we got separated. I have been looking for him for several months, but there is no sign of him, I am afraid..."

"This..." Concubine Zhuang hesitated.

"Since you have a grandson alive, you have to live a good life. The days to come will only get better and better. You and your grandson will meet each other sooner or later." Ze Fenglin can do nothing but persuade him. He doesn't know what the old man is Where did he come from? I took him on the road rashly, fearing that it would be unsafe.

"Didn't the old man go to the city to post a notice to inquire? The child is so young, he must not be able to go far." Concubine Zhuang understands the pain of missing her grandson, just like she misses her son all the time.

"I ask in the city every day, but I don't have any news, so I can only wait outside the city. Who knows that the drought and famine are getting worse and worse. I am penniless, and I can't even get a meal..." The old man choked up more and more.

"Then you want to go with us? Didn't you give up looking for your grandson completely?" Ze Fenglin asked back.

"I have to be alive before I can have the chance to see that child, otherwise I..." The old man cried with a mournful face, his eyes filled with infinite despair.

Natural disasters are present in the world, and man-made disasters are inevitable. I am afraid that they will accompany and depend on each other, and it will not last long.
