The masterpieces of the snake demon were all branded with the master-servant mark, like a series of terrifying paintings, clearly presented in Murong Ling'er's mind.

Murong Ling'er looked gently at Murong Chen, who was sleeping soundly beside Chu Lingfeng, with her eyes full of kindness. Then, she gently lifted the curtain of the car, looked up at the sky that was gradually becoming so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip from it, and couldn't help but frown.

Murong Ling'er immediately turned around and said to Chifeng in a deep voice, "Captain Qi, look at the weather. I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily soon. Our journey has been difficult enough. If we're blocked by heavy rain again, we'll be in danger of death! So we need to speed up and find a place to rest before the rain starts to fall."

When Qi Feng heard Murong Ling'er's words, he frowned, looked up at the increasingly gloomy sky, his face solemn, and secretly groaned in his heart.

He knew very well that this heavy rain could come at any time like a tiger rushing down from the mountain. However, they had just set out today and were still in the wilderness. Finding a suitable place to stay in such a short time was almost harder than climbing to the sky.

However, looking at everyone's tired yet expectant eyes, he could only bite the bullet and answer, "I'll just give it my best shot."

Just as Chifeng was thinking about this, the sky suddenly flashed with lightning and thunder. The deafening thunder seemed to tear the entire sky apart and resounded through the clouds.

Flashes of lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the earth in a pale white.

Hearing the earth-shattering thunder, Huo Jianjie quickly opened the carriage curtain and stuck his head out, his face filled with shock and fear. "I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily. What should I do?"

The sky, which was still somewhat bright just now, is now slowly getting darker at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Winter is always full of heavy rains. During their exile, they experienced countless rainstorms and heavy snow, and the conditions were extremely harsh.

At this moment, everyone's heart is filled with worry and anxiety.

The sky, which had just been slightly bright, was now slowly darkening at a speed visible to the naked eye. Winter was always rainy, and they had encountered countless rainstorms and heavy snow during their exile. The conditions were extremely harsh.

Chuchu also followed suit and lifted the car curtain, frowning tightly. On the one hand, she was worried about the coming heavy rain, and on the other hand, she was worried about the injured Chu Lingfeng.

Although he was lying in Murong Ling'er's carriage and would not be blown by the wind or rained on, she was still worried. After all, Chu Lingfeng was seriously injured and could not withstand any hardship.

She said worriedly, "If the rain starts, Ling Feng's injury will be even harder to heal."

Chifeng didn't care about the bumpy road at this time. He whipped the horse on the butt without hesitation. The horse felt pain, neighed, raised its hooves and ran as fast as an arrow.

"drive--"

Chifeng shouted loudly, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead. He was concentrating on driving the carriage, wishing that the carriage could grow wings and fly to a safe place immediately.

The people in the car were shaking violently as the car was shaking. Murong Ling'er tightly protected Murong Chen and Chu Lingfeng who were sleeping, fearing that they would be hurt.

Huo Jianjie held Huo Zihao in his arms while holding onto the car frame tightly, looking nervous!

Deng Lihua clutched the frame of the car tightly, listening to the whistling wind outside the window. She asked with a worried look on her face, "Master, it looks like the rain is going to be heavy. What should we do if it keeps falling?"

Huo Jianjie bit his lip and replied anxiously, "I don't know either! I can only hope that Captain Qi can find shelter from the rain as soon as possible."

Outside the car, the wind was howling and sand and rocks were flying, as if the end of the world was coming.

However, the convoy sped along but still failed to find shelter before the heavy rain came.

In an instant, heavy rain poured down like the water of the Milky Way in the sky pouring down to the earth. The sky and the earth were suddenly closely connected by a boundless and majestic huge water curtain.

The rain was like a river bursting its banks, vast and surging, sweeping in with the force of an overwhelming tidal wave. The bean-sized raindrops, packed with a tremendous force, slammed into the ground mercilessly. Every moment a drop of rain collided with the earth, it would splash out pieces of crystal clear water, like sparkling pearls dancing in the air.

These splashes of water intertwine and merge with each other, as if they are about to converge into a vast ocean, ruthlessly drowning the entire world in this endless rain curtain.

Under the ravages of this violent storm, the usually flat and solid roads were not spared and became muddy in the blink of an eye.

Those potholes had long been filled with muddy rainwater, forming puddles of varying sizes and depths, like ferocious mouths ready to swallow passing pedestrians and vehicles at any time. The road conditions were extremely bad, making people complain!

As the saying goes, "Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes singly." The carriage, which had been running smoothly all the way, was now struggling to move forward in the rain.

When it passed a seemingly ordinary large puddle, suddenly, the wheels seemed to lose control and sank into a deep mud pit.

The wheels were spinning wildly in the sticky mud, making a series of harsh friction sounds, but it only splashed more mud in vain, turning the area around the car into a chaotic quagmire in an instant, and the whole car body began to shake violently, like a beast trapped in a trap, struggling painfully, trying to break free from this terrible bondage.

Chifeng's face was full of anxiety. The carriage they were driving not only had no carport, but even the makeshift roof was leaking wind and rain on all sides. The merciless rain hit him and several officials wantonly. Their hair had long been soaked and stuck tightly to their scalps. The rain kept flowing down their cheeks, blurring their vision.

In this heavy rain, the clothes of several officials had been half wet. Now the carriage was stuck in the mud and could not move. Several people had no choice but to jump out of the carriage and push it hard.

As soon as their shoes stepped into the mud, they sank deeply into it, and every step they took required great effort.

They gritted their teeth, pressed their hands tightly against the car body, the veins on their arms bulged, and shouted: "One, two, three, push!" After all this ordeal, their clothes were completely soaked by the heavy rain. The originally thick clothes now stuck heavily to their bodies and were freezing cold.

The material was extremely heavy, and it took six people a lot of effort to push the car up. But suddenly, Chifeng's feet slipped, and the rear wheels sank in again.

At that moment, Chifeng's heart was filled with despair. He looked at the rain pouring down from the sky, feeling helpless.

Seeing this scene, Huo Jianjie handed Huo Zihao in his arms to Deng Lihua without any hesitation, then quickly opened the car door and jumped out. He ran to Chifeng and others in two steps, rolled up his sleeves, and held the car tightly with both hands, ready to push together.

At the same time, after seeing this scene, Chuchu hurriedly got out of the car and walked quickly to the rear of the car. Although her petite body seemed weak, it was full of strength and determination at this moment.

She took a deep breath, stood in a row with the others, and prepared to push the cart.

With the joining of Huo Jianjie, Chu Chu and several others, the people who were already exhausted seemed to be injected with new energy, and a glimmer of hope was ignited in their hearts.

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes revealing determination and unyielding spirit.

Then, everyone gathered their strength again and shouted in unison: "One, two, three!" Then they exerted force at the same time, trying to push the car forward.

"Everyone, work harder and we must push the car out!" Chiffon shouted loudly.

"Okay!" Everyone responded in unison, their voices a little blurry in the rain.

Finally, with the concerted efforts of more than a dozen people, the carriage was finally pushed out of the mud with great difficulty. Everyone was gasping for breath, as if they had just experienced a life-and-death battle.

At this time, these people had been soaked like drowned rats. Their bodies were shaking constantly and their lips were frozen purple, but their eyes revealed a hint of relief and determination.
