The rain in Seaside County was exceptionally long.

The cold wind carried with it the rain, blowing on their bodies. The taste was indescribable.

Cheng Qi was a civil servant. His body was weak all year round, and he had to find a pair of autumn pants to wear at the beginning of October.

He was speechless. "What are you standing there for? "It's raining so heavily."

The guard was also confused. "Greetings to Lord Ji. He said the rain sounds good, so I'll have to listen a little longer."

"This hobby..." Cheng Qi was speechless, but then he remembered that they were all his colleagues, so he decided to take another trip by boat. He said to the guard, "Go inform Lord Ji that they are about to reach the shore. Tell him to pack up, don't leave anything out."

After the guard accepted the order and left, Master smacked his lips and said to Cheng Qi: "Sir, do you think that Lord Ji would come with us to West Entering County? "He's not someone who likes to watch the show."

Cheng Qi laughed, "Is this the liveliness of other people? This is that old bastard Wan Li. Don't even mention us, those from the capital are already rushing to get a seat."

Grand Master was silent for a while, but he was still doubtful in his heart. "But Lord Ji has stayed in the State of Ting Jiang before, how come he didn't add insult to injury after injury?"

"Who knows." Cheng Qi grunted, "That old fool Wan Li is really unpopular. Maybe he had already offended him before. Let me tell you, all martial artists hold a grudge and are a bit underestimating."

That was what he said, but.

The Grand Master did not say much. After all, it had nothing to do with him, so there was no need for him to meddle.

An hour later, the boat was leaning against the pier of Xijin County. The rain outside had not stopped yet, and the sky and earth seemed to be getting wet.

Cheng Qi had been a governor in Yuanzhou for many years, and had long been raised up to be a pampered girl. He had never had a cold wind or a cold rain, and now that he was about to get off the boat, he was naturally shielded by a bunch of people.

He had been protected from both water and fire, and even managed to strike up a conversation with Lord Ji, who had an umbrella in his hand. "ChunDong, if you don't come and squeeze here, then it'll be very cold."

A tall man dressed in black turned around. With a heroic face and a short beard, he said to Cheng Xiuyin in a gentle and prideful voice, "Sir Cheng, you can stay out of my way. I'm fine here."

Cheng Qi was just being polite and didn't really want him to come over. The pier was simple and the road was small. Ji Chun Dong was big. If he really squeezed in, everyone would feel awkward.

As they walked out of the pier, they could see the people from the government office coming to pick them up in front of them.

Cheng Qi and his fellow teachers quickly contacted each other, and after a short conversation, they were placed in a carriage.

The person who came to pick him up was the County Magistrate of Xi Jing. Cheng Qi didn't speak to the small County Magistrate, but he received a bow from that person before getting into the carriage.

However, when he got on the carriage, he found out that there were only two cars in this poor city, which meant that he, Ji Chun Dong, and that small town had to squeeze together three people?

Cheng Qi was extremely dejected, especially when he saw that County Magistrate Song was very old and Ji Chundong was very broad. When the three of them came together, they immediately pushed him, who was thin and thin, to the side.

At the same time, he couldn't help but apologize and say that he had originally arranged for three carriages, but that one of them had temporarily gone to the inn. Since it was too late, he could only bring two of them over first.

County Magistrate Song thought he was talking about the curtain being opened and the wind blowing in. He quickly moved closer and sat down, not daring to sit too deeply.

After about half an hour, the carriage stopped outside of a large mansion. He opened his umbrella and welcomed them, explaining, "These days, there have been a lot of adults in the county, so the inn has not been occupied for a long time, and the inn is not safe either. This official then found the local squire and lent him a house to stay in for the time being.

The eastern courtyard of the mansion is empty. This official has already known that I will meet with them, so the people of the mansion will not disturb the two lords. "

As soon as he heard that there was no inn to live in, Cheng Qi could no longer resist his delicate temper. Fortunately, his Grand Master had hurried over and held down his master. He smiled and said to County Magistrate Song, "Then I will be troubling you."

County Magistrate Song immediately said, "I don't dare."

The Residence of Rong had already opened the door. As they walked in, Cheng Qi kept pulling at his face.

The Grand Master stood to the side and said, "It's you who insisted on coming. What can we do if we're late and have nowhere to stay?"

Cheng Qi angrily said, "It's all thanks to that old bastard Wan Li."

Grand Master could only say, "Yes," before making his way over.

Ji Chun Dong walked behind the two of them and listened to their conversation. At the same time, he shook his head slightly. For an officer like them, who was sick of eating and drinking, they, the military officials, had always looked down on him.

This Residence of Rong was quite large and had many courtyards, but there were many people who seemed to be living here, making a lot of noise.

On the way from the main courtyard to the east yard, Cheng Qi saw a black bird flying over his head. The bird was drenched in the heavy rain.

Finally, the bird left. Not long after, another little boy ran out. The little boy couldn't hold his umbrella anymore and started running towards them while stepping on the water. When he saw them, he was stunned and stood still.

Cheng Qi watched as the rain flowed from the top of the child's head into his collar. His hair stood on end for a moment, as if the rain was falling on his neck.

Ji Chun Dong, who was one step ahead, had already rushed over and used his umbrella to cover the child's head from the rain.

The child was dumbstruck for a moment before raising his head to look at the adults beside him. His black eyes were sparkling as he said, "Thank you."

Ji Chun Dong laughed, and covered the child's head with his rough and big palm, making the hair hanging down into a mess.

The little boy also felt the rain on his head. After his hair became messy, he shook his head like a puppy that had just taken a bath. Drops of water dripped everywhere as he grinned.

Cheng Qi felt that this child was sick. Wasn't it cold under such heavy rain? What's so funny?

Ji Chun Dong thought that this child was quite fun, but since it was raining heavily and he didn't use any umbrellas, wouldn't the adults at home take care of him?

Just as he was thinking this, County Magistrate Song spoke up: "Little boy, where are your parents?"
