Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl

Shen Li's mother, Zhang, was overwhelmed with worry when she heard that her daughter would be leaving for the capital in a few days.

The next day, she paced around the yard, her brows furrowed and her eyes full of worry.

Today's rain-praying location was Zhujia Village near Qingshan Town. Bai Jin had already set up the altar and incense table, following yesterday's arrangements.

When the carriage arranged by Bai Jin came to pick up Shen Li and Shen Shaodong, he could see Zhang's uneasiness at a glance.

Bai Jin stepped forward, his expression sincere and resolute, and said gently, "Sister-in-law, please be at ease. When Ah Li goes to the capital, I will do my utmost to protect her and will not let her suffer even the slightest harm. I guarantee with my own honor and official position that I will bring her back safely."

His voice was steady and powerful, revealing unquestionable determination, as if he wanted to convey this peace of mind to the worried Zhang.

Zhang's originally furrowed brows relaxed slightly. Although the panic and anxiety in her eyes had not completely disappeared, they had been replaced by a glimmer of hope and gratitude.

She raised her hand slightly, subconsciously wiped the corner of her eyes, nodded gently, and said in a slightly choked voice: "Master Bai, with your words, I finally feel a little comforted.

"A-Li has never traveled far since she was little, and as a mother, I can't help but worry about her. Now I'm relying entirely on you to take care of her." After saying this, she bowed slightly and saluted Bai Jin to express her gratitude and respect.

When Shen Li and others' carriage slowly approached the rain-praying site, noisy and chaotic sounds came like a tide.

Looking around, I saw a sea of ​​people, a dense mass of people gathered like an ant colony, completely encircling the venue. People were pushing and shoving each other, standing on tiptoe to peer in, their faces filled with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation.

The reason for this was the miraculous event of the fairy boy Shen Li’s successful prayer for rain yesterday, which spread like a gust of wind throughout the streets and alleys of Qingshan County.

When the people heard that there was going to be a rain-praying event here today, they could not contain their excitement and rushed over from all directions.

Everyone wanted to see with their own eyes whether this magical thing would happen again, or to see what the fairy boy who was said to be so magical looked like, so we had this crowded and lively scene before us.

In the crowd, all kinds of whispers were like fine raindrops, falling one after another.

"Have you heard? The fairy boy who prayed for rain yesterday was very powerful. With a wave of his little hand, the rain seemed to pour down from the sky." A white-haired old man lowered his voice and said to the person next to him with awe on his face.

"Is it really that amazing? I thought they were just exaggerating." A young man looked doubtfully at the crowd, "I wonder which little deity has descended to earth to possess such magical powers."

"I've also heard that the little fairy child looks just like a fairy in a painting, with red lips and white teeth, and a very handsome appearance." A woman chuckled softly, her eyes full of curiosity and envy. "I wonder which family has such good fortune to have such a capable child."

"No matter what, if we can pray for rain today, our crops will be saved." A farmer clasped his hands together with a pious look on his face. "God bless you, please let the fairy child appear again."

Several children nearby were also chattering, "I really want to see the fairy girl. Brother, can the fairy girl fly?" "Silly, the fairy girl can't fly, but she can definitely use magic to make the clouds obey."

Following Shen Li's actions the day before, the sky gradually darkened and dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky, like a huge black beast lurking.

In a moment, lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the wind howled. The fierce momentum seemed to tear the whole world apart.

Then, bean-sized raindrops began to fall with a crackling sound. At first, they were sparse, but in a moment, they became a downpour, like a river bursting its banks, pouring down towards the earth that had been dry for a long time.

When the people kneeling on the ground saw this, their faces were first filled with astonishment, and then turned into ecstasy.

They all knelt on the ground, knocked their foreheads heavily on the dusty ground, and shouted words of gratitude.

"Thank you, God, for your mercy!"

"The fairy boy appeared and saved us, the people!"

"I will never forget this kindness!"

The shouts rose one after another, echoing in the wind and rain, filled with awe of God's gift and endless gratitude to Shen Li. Everyone's eyes flashed with hope and piety, as if at this moment, all the suffering would be washed away by the heavy rain.

Although she had witnessed such a shocking scene yesterday, Shen Li still couldn't help feeling sad when she saw these people's eyes full of piety and tears in their eyes again.

She thought to herself: If I had not met Xiao Qi, and had not experienced those strange situations, perhaps I would have been silently lost in this vast river of history like a drop in the ocean when I first arrived here.

Therefore, now it is no longer just about the tasks issued by the system.

Shen Li sincerely desires to use her own abilities to try to reverse this existing situation and bring some tangible changes to the people of this land, so that they will no longer be entangled in hunger and hardship for a long time, so that the haze of despair can gradually dissipate and the dawn of hope can shine in every corner.
