After being exiled with her husband and children, she returned with great power to rule the world
Chapter 98 Roasted Rabbit
Chu Lingfeng and Murong Chen were lying in the carriage, with the sound of rain pouring in their ears, and he was extremely anxious.
The downpour showed no signs of stopping, and he hoped that everyone could quickly find a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
However, the rain not only didn't subside, but it became even more ferocious! The sound of the pouring rain seemed to drown the entire world, and the heavy rain almost completely blocked everyone's vision.
Who could have imagined that the rain would come so suddenly and so violently? Now that we were in this desolate wilderness, everyone had no choice but to grit their teeth and continue on their way.
The rain kept hitting the carriage, and the wheels rolled hard on the muddy road.
Chu Lingfeng could clearly hear the complaints of the officials and the neighing of horses outside in the carriage.
Fortunately, after walking ten miles with difficulty, a dilapidated temple appeared in front of them. Although the temple was not large, it was undoubtedly a life-saving shelter for the people who were in a miserable state at the moment.
Five carriages were hurried into the temple together. The land temple, which was originally not very big, was instantly packed with people, with almost no extra space.
Everyone worked together to put the carriage in place and then took refuge in the temple.
By the time everyone lit the bonfire, it was already completely dark outside. It was still daytime, but because of the gloomy weather and the continuous heavy rain, it looked as dark as dusk.
"This damn weather is so weird!"
The tall and thin official looked at the vast rain curtain and couldn't help but spit. If he hadn't been wearing a thick raincoat, he probably wouldn't be able to sit here safely and warm himself by the fire.
Seeing the tall and thin official complaining, everyone also began to complain about the bad weather.
"I don't know when this rain will stop. Will we be trapped here for days?"
"It's really unlucky to encounter such horrible weather and the road is so difficult to walk on."
"Yeah! I don't know what to do next."
Chifeng sighed secretly, thinking back on the experiences along the way, his heart was full of emotion.
This escort journey was undoubtedly the most thrilling, embarrassing and unfortunate one in his career. If it weren't for Murong Ling'er and Chu Lingfeng supporting the situation at the critical moment, he might have had a mental breakdown long ago.
The atmosphere in the dilapidated temple was extremely dull and depressing. After experiencing two consecutive ordeals, everyone was exhausted and no one was in the mood to speak.
In the quiet temple, the only sound was the crackling sound of the burning bonfire.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
......
The intermittent sneezing broke the brief silence.
After being caught in the rain, Chiffon and the others were eventually affected. Even Huo Jianjie and Chu Chu were not spared and started sneezing.
Chifeng felt dizzy and cold all over. Every time he sneezed, he felt his body getting heavier. He tightened his clothes, but still couldn't resist the cold.
Huo Jianjie's face was pale, his lips were slightly purple, he sneezed one after another, and was coughing in bursts. He looked very weak.
Wang also kept sniffing and mumbling, "This rain is killing me! My nose is blocked and my head hurts so badly."
Deng Lihua held the sleeping Huo Zihao in her arms, her hand covering her forehead with a frown. She leaned weakly on the haystack and muttered, "I feel so weak all over. What should I do?"
You know, that tall, thin official was usually famous for his strong physique, as if he had endless strength and energy. However, at this moment, he had completely lost his former majesty. He was seen rubbing his hands back and forth, stamping his feet non-stop, and muttering non-stop: "Ouch! My whole body is cold from the cracks in my bones! This is really suffering!"
At this moment, bursts of loud and rapid sneezes echoed throughout the temple.
It turned out that the officials couldn't stand the cold weather and started sneezing one after another.
Seeing this, Murong Ling'er, who was sitting nearby, hurriedly said to Chifeng, "Quickly, get some ginger from the food cart and make some ginger water for everyone to drink to drive away the cold."
After Murong Ling'er's reminder, Chifeng came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream. He quickly turned around and ordered the officer beside him to take out an iron pot and fill it with ice-cold rainwater.
Then he threw several large, golden pieces of ginger into the pot, poured some brown sugar into the pot, and then lit a fire and began to boil a ginger and brown sugar soup that could resist the severe cold.
As time passed, soon the whole temple was filled with a strong and pungent smell of ginger.
Murong Ling'er took a look at the cold-relieving soup boiling in the pot, turned and walked towards the carriage. She seemed to be looking for food in the carriage, but in fact she took out a few pickled rabbits from her mysterious space.
Back to the campfire, Murong Ling'er skillfully roasted the rabbit over the fire.
As the rabbit meat roasts over the fire, it gradually emits an enticing aroma, which mixes with the pungent smell of ginger to form a unique taste.
The aroma of roast chicken wafted across the air instantly, making Chu Yinyin and Huo Shuixian stare at it intently, their eyes seemingly glued to the roast chicken and unable to move away.
Seeing this, Huo Jianjie suddenly felt embarrassed. He quickly took out a few cold steamed buns from his bag and handed them to Huo Shuixian, saying, "Shuixian, you must be hungry! Eat some steamed buns first."
Huo Shuixian showed disgust on her face and muttered in a low voice: "Dad, how can I swallow this cold steamed bun? I want to eat meat."
Huo Jianjie frowned, "Shuixian, don't be silly. It's a blessing to have steamed buns at this time."
Huo Shuixian was stubborn and said, "I don't care, Dad, go ask Murong Ling'er for some food."
Huo Jianjie's face darkened. "Narcissus, stop talking nonsense. I've already failed Ling'er, how can I still have the nerve to ask for her food?"
Deng Lihua listened to Huo Shuixian's shrill shouting, her brows furrowed, and an uncontrollable feeling of disgust welled up in her heart. She couldn't help but snort coldly and said, "I've never met such a shameless person! He doesn't even think about how he treats Ling'er, and he still has the audacity to ask for this and that!"
In fact, Chu Yinyin also coveted the rabbit meat in her heart, but she could not be as shameless as Huo Shuixian. She just secretly despised Huo Shuixian's shamelessness in her heart.
Murong Ling'er seemed oblivious to all this and completely ignored it, concentrating on roasting the rabbit in her hands. The color of the rabbit meat became more and more tempting, and it sizzled with oil, and the aroma became stronger and stronger.
Huo Shuixian's face turned red and white after being ridiculed by Deng Lihua, but she still stubbornly pulled at the corner of Huo Jianjie's clothes, trying to make him defend herself.
