Traveling with Indra

Chapter 18 Heavy Rain

The hot summer was still comfortable in the mountains, but after a few days of the sun, it was so hot that it made people uncomfortable. On such a night, lightning and thunder began to blow, and the wind blew violently, and heavy rain poured down. The bean-sized raindrops fell like a waterfall, which made everyone in the Ninja Clan move.

There was a water source near where they lived, and the flooding of the river would cause great damage to the paddy fields. The millet that could be harvested in just one month could not be wasted because of this heavy rain. Everyone helped to drain the water and piled up sandbags filled with burlap on the river bank, hoping that the river would not burst its banks.

Asura and Indra go in and out every day. In addition to the floods in their own village, they also have to take care of the surrounding areas. Although they only manage this river, there are still many people and many fields to protect.

Today, the team that made the bamboo rafts went to the bamboo mountain to cut bamboo for rescue purposes. However, due to large-scale felling of bamboo this year, a landslide occurred and the team was trapped on the bamboo mountain.

Asura, who had just taken a bath, hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath. He ate a few mouthfuls of food and followed his brother to rescue people. In addition to going to Zhushan via the back mountain, the best way to go is to go to Xiaoyuan Mountain. Mingluo arranged a cable car there, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

The two men, wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats, moved forward with difficulty in the heavy rain. They finally arrived at Xiaoyuan Mountain and looked at the Zhushan landslide over there.

knock knock --

"Mingluo, Mingluo, do you have extra pulleys for the cable car?"

"Wait a minute."

Mingluo came out quickly. Her hut was fine. No matter how heavy the rain was, it would just flow down. She had opened several "sewers", and both the vegetable garden and the melon shed were fine.

"Thank you." Indra saw her take out three pulleys and thought that it should be enough. He just needed to rescue the people over there.

"Take this." Mingluo handed over the stretcher and decided to go with Ashura. Let Indra take the wounded here. He has the best healing ability and can adapt to circumstances.

The two men slid down to the Bamboo Mountain via the cable car and after some effort they found ten villagers who were making bamboo rafts. Two of them had injured legs and three were in a coma.

It took them another two hours to get back to the small flat land where the cableway was located. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the small round mountain a hundred meters away could not be seen clearly with the naked eye. Mingluo tied the rope for the man in the heavy rain and told him that Indra was waiting there to pick up the wounded.

"Yes, I understand." Upon hearing that Lord Indra was on the other side, the wounded man who was afraid of heights immediately perked up.

Mingluo pushed him out, and only heard the sound of pulleys, followed by a shrill scream.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--"

Everyone present was trembling with fear. They were not mentally prepared to try such an exciting means of transportation.

"Very good. When Indra heard the scream, he knew someone had passed by." Mingluo nodded with satisfaction and his eyes fell on the next person. "It's your turn."

The person involved was trembling: QAQ how scary!

The two with injured legs went over first, followed by the uninjured ones. Each of them was a descendant of the Screaming Chicken, shouting loudly and frantically, fearing that the people on the other side would not know that they were gone.

Ming Luo tied one of the unconscious people and Asura to the pulley. "You go over, come back to pick up another one, and I'll take the last one back."

"Okay." Asura nodded, pushed off the ground and slid out.

pat!pat!

The heavy rain hit the bamboo hat, and the whole scene was filled with muddy water. I couldn't see the sky or the ground, and the world seemed to be isolated by water into a small cage. I couldn't hear any sound except the sound of rain, and even if I talked face to face, I had to shout.

Ming Luo looked at the river that was once as thin as a waist. Now it is about 40 meters wide and is no longer the river with shrimps. No matter what era, living near water sources and mountains is risky.

After Asura took the second person away, Ming Luo also tied up the person and left. The pulley was rolling quietly, and suddenly she felt something was wrong. A feeling of falling suddenly came over her, and Ming Luo widened her eyes in shock, subconsciously looking back.

Her metal chain broke? Impossible!

Is there something wrong with the stone pillar? Is it going to kill me?

Ming Luo knew very well that this place was only 30 meters above the ground, and it would take only two seconds to fall into the river. If she fell in, she would not know where she would be washed to! She activated her ability to control the entire metal ropeway to suspend and bend, allowing her to stop in mid-air with difficulty.

[Tsk, we can’t hold out like this for long!] Ming Luo looked at the wounded man tied to her. She was already lucky enough to be able to float in the air using metal, but now there was another person, which was an overload.

Black Zetsu stared at the chain that suddenly rose up and rolled into a vortex, staring in disbelief. He thought this woman was just a little bit stronger in combat power, and that even beasts couldn't beat her, but he didn't expect that she had the ability to control metal.

Asura on Xiaoyuan Mountain just got off the pulley, he felt the position change, the ropeway dropped at least five centimeters. Confused, he untied the rope and carried the wounded to the bamboo shed built by Mingluo.

"Brother, there is only Mingluo and a wounded person left."

"You come and treat them, I'll go and take them." Indra put on his hat again, and the last one left was done. The one with the injured leg could go together after being cured, and the remaining three could only stay in Xiaoyuan Mountain temporarily and wait for further treatment before being carried away.

When Indra came here, he found something wrong. The metal cable was shaking too much. He tried to use his Sharingan to look at the position of the chakra in the rain. He saw a chakra stopped halfway, shaking up and down, and even approaching slowly.

The rope is broken!

Indra made a judgment in an instant. He was afraid that the rope would not hold if he went to save the people, and he kept thinking about what kind of magic could come in handy.

Fire, wind, water, thunder, earth?

If you use earth escape technique, you can create a temporary foothold!

Indra's seal was formed, but he did not strike the mountain, because even if the river flow was temporarily cut off, the accumulated flood would cause a devastating blow to the paddy fields.

He took off his raincoat and hat, and jumped down the mountain wall. His pupils surged wildly, and rich chakra emerged from his body. Unlike the last time he fought against the wasps, this time it was bigger and more solid. Amid the creaking sound of bones, a giant skeleton took shape.

The blue-purple chakra giant was about 30 meters long, not a perfect shape, but it was enough to deal with the current situation. It had four hands, two of which supported the river bank, and one stuck to the mountain wall, which could create a safe foothold for the caster.

He tried hard to control his chakra and stretched out a hand to the center of the river, hoping to catch Ming Luo who was about to fall. The rope was shaking and shaky, and it was frightening to watch.

Ming Luo couldn't even open her eyes, so she didn't see the approaching chakra hand. Controlling such a large metal rope was very exhausting, and her head hurt like a needle. She couldn't bear the long-term metal manipulation.

"Mingluo——"

Who called me?

Someone is coming, can I let go?

What was falling was not the river water. Ming Luo felt that something was hanging her up. Finally, she saw a pair of scarlet three-magatama and lost consciousness due to a splitting headache.

[What a loss. I shouldn't have saved him.]
