Asking for a divorce on the way to exile, finding a husband is a great pleasure
Chapter 30 Dangerous
The rain was pouring down in the deep mountains, and a gust of wind would blow from time to time.
At first, Shen Yitian and other people holding umbrellas could still avoid the rain, but when the wind blew, the umbrellas were useless.
Not only was the torch in her hand blown out, Shen Yitian almost couldn't even hold her umbrella steady.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more critical, Shen Yitian gritted her teeth, took out a flashlight from the space and hid it in her sleeve.
"I have a night-shining pearl here. You can hold the umbrella and I'll provide the light." She said to Yuan Dutou nervously without turning her head.
Yuan Dutou watched as the torches were extinguished again and again by the wind and rain, and were about to fail to light. When he heard Shen Yitian mention the night pearls, his eyes lit up.
"Night Pearl? Does it shine? Take it out and try it!"
The night pearl will not be extinguished by wind and rain, so even if it is not very bright, it is fine as long as I can see the road.
Shen Yitian nodded, and as soon as the sound fell, Yuan Dutou felt a bright light in front of his eyes.
When the flashlight came on, Shen Yitian couldn't help but stick out her tongue.
Wow, she only picked out the best flashlights when she was stocking up. But when she opened it, she found that compared to the torch light just now, her flashlight was too bright.
Yuan Dutou looked at the road in front of him that was clearly illuminated and couldn't help swallowing.
"Your, night pearl?" He asked with a hint of doubt in his tone.
He was just an ordinary captain. Although he lived in the capital, he was not rich. He had never seen such a thing as a night pearl.
But are night-shining pearls supposed to be this bright? Is this normal? How big must a night-shining pearl be to emit such a bright light?
"Let's go quickly, the rain is getting heavier." Shen Yitian coughed dryly and said quite uncomfortably.
Yuan Dutou didn't ask any more questions. He just thought that Shen Yitian coughed dryly and disliked him for asking such stupid questions because he was naive.
Shen Yitian hid the thing in her sleeve and refused to take it out. He just thought that the other party was on guard because she was afraid that he would covet the good thing.
In short, he never thought that what Shen Yitian hid in her sleeve was not a night-shining pearl, but a flashlight...
With Shen Yitian leading the way, the road was easy to find.
However, in this heavy rain, the mountain road was very slippery, which was something a flashlight could not solve.
Shen Yitian had never walked on a mountain road in such a heavy rain. In such a situation, she would slip with every step. If Yuan Dutou hadn't been there to help her, she would have fallen countless times.
It wasn't just her, the people behind her were all in the same boat. Although they weren't slipping with every step, they were still complaining bitterly.
Yuan Dutou frowned, "This won't do. If we keep walking like this, we'll get hurt before we even find a safe place."
The situation was not good, so he had to be careful with what he said, otherwise he would have asked if someone had fallen to their death.
Shen Yitian pursed her lips and said nothing. She also felt that this was not right. However, she had never encountered such a situation before and did not know how to prevent slipping.
Suddenly, she saw the thatch, which was the best growing grass on the mountain besides the big trees and shrubs, and her expression changed slightly.
"Captain Yuan, can you lend me your knife?" She said in a low voice with a calm tone.
Yuan Dutou's expression shifted, and he wanted to ask her why she wanted a knife at this time, but when he saw her looking at the thatch beside her, he didn't ask any more questions, pulled out the knife and handed it to her.
I don’t know why, but his previous reliance on the elders who led the team was inexplicably transferred to Shen Yitian.
Shen Yitian was also nimble and quick. She used Yuan Dutou's knife to chop off the thatch that would cause rain to fall everywhere when she moved, then squatted down and tied a few pieces of thatch to her shoes.
The thatch was very hard, so she used her hands to break the stems and soften them. The sharp thatch cut her hands many times, but she didn't feel it, and just continued her movements quickly.
After her feet were tied up, she tried to walk a few more steps and indeed felt much better.
"Hurry, let everyone tie something on their shoes." Shen Yitian turned around and said to Yuan Dutou.
Seeing that she could walk steadily with such a simple operation, Yuan Dutou stopped hesitating.
"Cut some straw, soften it and tie it to the shoes." As he said this, he followed Shen Yitian's example and cut some straw and tied it to the shoes with the help of the light she provided.
Xiao Yu and the others were very efficient and in a short while they had tied up all the straw.
When the Song family saw Shen Yitian walking alone in front with a treasure that could illuminate something in her hand, they immediately shouted at Shen Yitian to go back and take care of the old lady.
When Yuan Dutou saw that they started arguing with each other again, he immediately became angry.
"Hurry up and get going! If you encounter rocks rolling down in this heavy rain, you'll probably lose your lives."
After saying that, he glanced at Shen Yitian, who immediately understood and turned around to walk away.
This time the departure was much smoother. Although it was raining heavily and they were not walking fast, the system stopped giving reminders after they had walked a certain distance. However, Shen Yitian did not let down her guard.
"System, system, are we out of danger?" she asked distractedly, taking advantage of the relatively flat road ahead.
If the system said they were out of danger, she could have walked slower. Traveling quickly in the rain was difficult, and if the system hadn't urged her, she might have stayed where she was and waited until daybreak.
[This place is still dangerous, please evacuate as soon as possible.] The system's mechanical voice sounded again, and Shen Yitian's mood, which had just relaxed a little, immediately tensed up again.
"Hurry up, hurry up." She muttered to herself, and her pace, which had just slowed down a little, quickened again.
At first, Yuan Dutou thought that she slowed down her pace to find a place to rest nearby, but when he saw her suddenly speed up, his heart tightened.
"Hurry up, walk faster." He turned around and shouted to the exiled prisoners behind him who were almost unable to walk.
When the officers heard him shout, they also hurried the people along, and even helped those who couldn't walk.
Shen Yitian led everyone forward and there were complaints from everyone, but Yuan Dutou insisted on listening to her, so the prisoners had no choice but to obey even if they complained.
Just as they were hurrying forward, a loud bang suddenly came from behind.
Shen Yitian felt a chill down her spine, turned around and shone the flashlight over there, only to see that a whole section of the hillside behind her had slid down.
The road they had just walked on had long been covered by rocks and soil. If they had not walked out, they would have been buried alive underneath.
Yuan Dutou looked in the direction of her flashlight, his eyes wide open and he even forgot to breathe.
God knows how grateful he is now, grateful that he chose to listen to Shen Yitian and take everyone away.
Otherwise, not to mention these exiled prisoners, even the brothers he brought with him would all be buried alive by rocks and mud.
Not only him, but the prisoners who had previously questioned why Shen Yitian had to travel so late at night also fell silent. They stared at the distance in fear, and no one thought about why the light of the night pearl in Shen Yitian's hand could shine so far.
"Let's keep going. It's still not safe here." Shen Yitian took a deep breath and wiped the rain off her face.
