The snow is starting to melt, the weather is slowly getting warmer, and the warm season of spring is really here.

But at this time, many people came to a high slope of Yunbi Mountain, where sheds were erected with wooden pillars. Many people rested here, and some people were working.

Some of these people came to escape disaster.

And some people come here because of its fame.

"Is there really a dragon appearing in this world?"

"This old man has lived his whole life and has never seen what a dragon looks like."

"But it's been several days and I haven't seen anything."

"How can it be wrong if the gods appear?"

"But has anyone really seen a god?"

Liu Yitou's servants were maintaining order. Two Taoists, one fat and one thin, squatted in the corner and stared at the location of Zhangjiacun in the valley in the distance. There were many traders, river workers, sailors and literati dressed nearby.

People can sit or stand.

Some people took advantage of this to start a business, shouldering the burden and selling food and tea.

On this originally barren high slope, people who were hiding from disasters, watching the excitement, worshiping gods, watching jokes, catching evil spirits, and doing business all gathered together into a bustling crowd, making it very lively.

In the shade under the tree, two boys and girls sat on a blanket, with two domestic servants and a maid standing beside them.

Young people are impatient, and after sitting and waiting for less than half a day, they became impatient.

"Sister!"

"Why didn't Grandpa come over?"

The boy and girl are Jia Gui's children. The older daughter is very thoughtful and understands some of her father's thoughts, but she doesn't say it explicitly.

"After the mud dragon is born, my grandfather can show up to arrange the aftermath. This is the real big thing. Now I am making preparations."

"Besides, I have just arrived in Xihe County. I also have a lot of official matters to deal with in the county office, and I can't get away for a while."

This was also the reason, but the daughter knew that there were other reasons why her father Jia Gui did not come.

Although Jia Gui was already very convinced that he had met an immortal, his caution as an official and in a temple for many years made him like to leave room for escape no matter what he did or said.

On the one hand, Jia Gui sent people to spread rumors about the appearance of gods to build momentum, but he did not say that he was the one who met the gods. Instead, he strictly prohibited his family members from leaking the incident, which seemed to be very low-key.

He met Liu Yitou and his entourage in the back hall and followed them to arrange their work, but he did not show up.

I just thought that if the mud dragon is born, then the immortal will be very successful. He will be a true immortal with pure gold, and he will no longer have any worries.

If the mud dragon hadn't come out, he would have had room to move forward and retreat, and he wouldn't have fallen into the mud pit all at once.

It has to be said that Jia Gui is a man who has been in officialdom for a long time, and he can calculate clearly and accurately.

However, at this moment, the daughter's family was a little disdainful of some of her father's actions. Although she could not express it clearly, she still murmured something.

"Our grandpa is just too smart."

The young man heard his sister's words: "Isn't it better to be smart?"

But the girl shook her head: "Sometimes people are too smart, but they are not smart enough."

If Jia Gui's wisdom is used on ordinary people, it will definitely be beneficial. But for some people, you are too smart. Your little calculations are clear to others. If you are too smart, you will be too smart.

Fallen down.

Perhaps this is part of the reason why Jia Gui was demoted here.

Waiting and waiting, the sky gradually darkened.

Nearly half of the people on the high slope also dispersed, and one by one left to go home, each one saying dissatisfiedly before leaving.

"Looking at nothing."

"I guess it's not today either."

"I'll just say it's just a trick. There's no dragon anywhere."

"Be more virtuous and be careful of the gods punishing you."

"If there are no dragons, where can the gods come from?"

Seeing that it was getting dark, the young man finally couldn't sit still and said to his sister.

"Sister, let's go back too!"

My sister also nodded, but as soon as she stood up, she suddenly said something as if she was really happy.

"Or, how about going to the river wall and taking a look?"

Young man: "Hey, it's so late?"

My sister said: "Only at this late hour can you meet gods."

Among the two of them, the elder sister rarely talks much in public, but it is usually the elder sister who makes the decisions.

After saying that, the two of them set off with two domestic servants and a maid, heading towards the river along the mountain road they came from.

Halfway through, it became completely dark.

Sister: "Would you like to light the lantern?"

Maid: "Yes!"

But as soon as the maid lit up the lantern and lifted it up, she saw wet marks on the wall of the lantern, accompanied by a ticking sound.

Everyone immediately raised their heads and looked towards the sky, and suddenly felt a touch of coldness on their faces.

"Is it raining?"

The group of people looked at the sky that was clear just in the evening, but now it has turned into dark clouds.

Then, a bright light flashed through the cracks in the dark clouds.

"Boom!"

A thunder exploded in everyone's ears, and their faces instantly turned pale.

Inexplicably, the five people in the group felt a strong fear pouring into their hearts, like ice water, deep into their bones, making everyone shiver.

At this time, the young man said quickly.

"Sister, it's raining, let's go back quickly!"

My sister looked at the sky and seemed to have thought of something.

"rain?"

"thunder?"

"No, we can't take shelter from the rain. We need to get out of here quickly."

Teenager: "What's wrong?"

Sister: "When dragons appear in this world, they are destined to be accompanied by wind and rain. This sound of thunder attracts wind and clouds, and the dragon is about to escape from the mountain and fly out."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces turned pale, and even the hairs on their hair stood up.

Among the mountains and roads, not to mention encountering the mud dragon that escaped from trouble, just a slight tremor caused by it passing by from a distance was enough to make them disappear silently into this mountain.

Not even the bones could be found, they were buried under the mudflows and mountains for eternity.

Moreover, it was easy to go down the mountain, but it was not easy to go up again at this time. My sister immediately made up her mind and said to the others.

"Let's go on and go to the river."

They said they were leaving, but no one could bear to leave calmly at this time.

The group of people quickly ran through the rain, running along the road towards the river.

——

On a high slope.

As soon as it got dark, many people had already begun to rest, but as the raindrops hit the roof of the shed, shouts came from around.

Someone shouted in a local accent: "It's raining."

The sleeping person was caught in the rain and immediately exclaimed: "It's raining, the rain is leaking in."

Someone said impatiently: "Why is it raining at this time?"

At this time, the first thing most villagers are worried about is their own belongings: "Take care of your things, don't let them get wet."

One by one, the figures immediately got up, and pairs of heads looked outside.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier.

There was no sight of rain in the darkness, only the sound of rain could be heard.

"Crash!"
