Chapter 180 Timely Rain

It is said that June is the face of a little kid, and it changes as soon as possible. Although it is less than June, it is undoubtedly already summer. The sky was clear and the afternoon was a sharp turn. First, a dark cloud floated from the north, and then it became bigger and thicker like a dough sprinkled with yeast powder. The dark sky was like an upside-down iron pot, followed by a strong wind and heavy rain. Gao Bufan and others, who were marching in a hurry, suddenly became a chicken.

However, Gao Bufan was not surprised but happy. It was a timely rain. It seemed that God was treating himself well. This storm would inevitably wipe out the traces left on the ground. Even if the plan to lure the enemy into division of troops was not successful, this heavy rain would at least give him half a day. It was amazing!

"Looking at the pine trees in the vast dusk, the clouds are flying in a calm state." Gao Bufan felt moved when he was moved, and could not help but recite two lines of poetry. It seems that if he did too many copywriting, he would suffer from occupational diseases. Taizu's poems are quite a lot, and most of them are magnificent and grand. Gao Bufan only remembers these two lines, showing his calmness and freedom.

Although it was raining heavily now, Dou Shinin Niang, who was following next to him, could not help but lit up his eyes. The little girl was soaked in the heavy rain, her clothes were close to her slender and delicate body. She set up a shed in her hand to block the rain, and asked happily: "Brother Gao was reciting a poem just now?"

Gao Bufan shook his head decisively and said, "No."

Dou Xianniang flattened her mouth and said, "Lie, you clearly recited a poem just now."

"No, you heard it wrong."

"That's right, everyone has heard it, Dog'er, have you heard it?" Dou Xianniang saw Gao Bufan denying it, so she asked Liu Gou'er behind her for confirmation. The latter immediately nodded violently and said, "I heard it, Mr. Gao was indeed reciting a poem just now."

"Look, the dogs heard it, Brother Gao still wants to lie." Dou Xianniang pouted her mouth dissatisfiedly and said, "The rain sounded too loud just now, and people didn't hear it clearly. Brother Gao chanted again."

Although Gao Bufan is famous for his poems, Dou Xianniang has not heard him recite poems with her own ears, so she is very looking forward to it.

Gao Bufan sweated secretly and said: "Xian Niang, have you heard of the four great joys in life?"

Dou Xianniang was successfully distracted and shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of Xianniang, is there any explanation?"

Gao Bufan smiled and said, "I met a sweet dew for a long time, and met an old friend in a foreign land. I met a wedding night and went to the golden list to be named. These are the four great joys in life. Now this timely heavy rain is our sweet dew?"

Dou Xianniang's pretty face was slightly red. She knew about the wedding night, but she didn't know what the title was on the Golden List. What the Golden List is?

It is no wonder that Dou Xianniang didn't know that although the Sui Dynasty abolished the nine-rank Zhongzheng system's official selection system, the imperial examination system had just begun and was far from forming a complete system. There were no such statements as top scorers, second scorers, and Tanhua, so naturally there was no so-called gold list title.

However, Dou Xianniang only thought that her knowledge was too shallow, so she didn't know what the title was on the Golden List, but she was embarrassed to not ask. Instead, Liu Gouer next to her made a fuss and said, "Young Master Bufan, since there are four great joys in life, there must be four great sorrows in life."

Gao Bufan said funnyly: "The four great compassions in life are: I have seen a long time when I encounter nectar - a drop, meet an old friend in a foreign land - a creditor, bridal night - someone else, when I was named on the golden list - the same name."

Liu Gou'er was stunned for a long time before laughing loudly. There was no way, because she lacked culture and lacked understanding, and her reflex arc was naturally much longer than others.

Dou Xianniang was both angry and funny. She stretched out her short sword and knocked Liu Gou'er, and said angrily: "Stinky Dog'er, why are you laughing at? You're so nervous."

Liu Gou'er rubbed her stomach and said, "It's so funny, gaga, sister of the line lady, don't you think it's funny?"

When Dou Xianniang saw Brother Gao looking at him with a smile, her face became hot and she said in her mind: "Brother Gao, Brother Gao, the wedding night of Moon will only be you, and there will be no one else."

It is obvious that after experiencing so much, this fifteen-year-old girl has already fallen in love with Gao Laozi.

The heavy rain lasted for more than half an hour, but the sky quickly became blue again after the rain. A sunset hung in the sky in the west. Everyone almost discovered that a gorgeous rainbow spanned the sky in the east, which was so beautiful that it was amazing.

"How can you see a rainbow without experiencing a storm? This is a good sign." Gao Bufan laughed loudly. Everyone was excited when they heard this and felt inexplicably excited.

After about a stick of incense, everyone finally arrived at the deserted village where they discovered oil last time. It was a coincidence that the time was almost the same, and it was all at the twilight moment.

"General Qin, look, this place I am talking about." Gao Bufan pointed to the deserted village in front of him.

Qin Qiong rode his horse into the deserted village, walked around fortifications, and then said happily: "This place is not bad. With the help of the existing structure, it can save a lot of effort. Well, let's do a battle with the other side's cavalry here. Without further ado, a certain family began to arrange the plan and strive to complete the construction before dawn."

Gao Bufan nodded and said, "But I want to remind General Qin that there is no water here, so we cannot be trapped by the other party. We must fight and decide quickly."

Qin Qiong pointed to the water well not far away and said, "Isn't there a water well?"

"Yes, how come there is no water if there is a well?" Guo Zisheng interrupted.

Gao Bufan turned over and got off the horse and walked to the well, waved and said, "You will understand when you come here and take a look."

Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and others quickly dismounted and followed. Gao Bufan threw the bucket into the well and quickly lifted a bucket of sticky black liquid. The smell was very pungent. Everyone couldn't help but be stunned. What's this thing?

Luo Shixin scratched the back of his head and said, "These... seem to be the tincture oil that Liu Wuzhou used to set fire to the woods that day, just a minute."

Gao Bufan nodded and introduced: "This is a natural tincture oil. I call him oil. It is very easy to burn. Once it is ignited, it is difficult for water to extinguish it. I believe everyone can see its power that day."

Dewey couldn't help but say, "Isn't water coming out of this well? This kind of oil is just coming out of it?"

Gao Bufan nodded and said, "That's right, probably this is also the reason for the abandonment of the village."

Qin Qiong's heart moved when he heard this, and looked at Gao Bufan with bright eyes and said, "Is Mr. Gao going to use this oil to deal with the cavalry?"

Gao Bufan smiled and said, "I do have this plan, but since General Qin has a way to deal with the cavalry, we might as well communicate with each other. If we can achieve twice the result with half the effort, it would be better."

Qin Qiong nodded and said, "So I wish, I dare not ask for it. Let's find a place to sit down and make a long-term plan."
