Chapter 33 Clouds
Su Bujing listened to the conversation, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, his thoughts racing in his heart.

Now, it has been half a month since Zhao and Su Buyi went out.

The day after Zhao and Su Buyi left, the imperial court directed King Yu to lead the troops to attack Qizhou, and sent General Qin to assist, officially targeting the rebels.

The war has completely broken out in Qizhou.

Fortunately, their family had escaped Qizhou in time, otherwise, even if they were not killed by the rebels, they would have been affected by this war.

King Yu led 4 troops, but the rebels only had [-] people. Before the war started, the people of Rui State began to rejoice, as if they had won the victory.

There is a wall outside the government office in Bai County. Every few days, someone from the government office will paste a notice on the wall:
How many rebels King Yu killed, which county in Qizhou was recaptured by King Yu, how many tens of thousands of people were rescued by King Yu... and so on.

The people felt relieved after seeing it and praised King Yu more.

But not long ago, for unknown reasons, the government office suddenly stopped posting notices.

The battle ahead was changing rapidly, and the people were blinded and had no idea how Qizhou was fighting.

For a time, people panic.

The people of Yongzhou were afraid that King Yu would be defeated, and Qizhou could no longer withstand it.

But seeing that the magistrates of Bai County didn't panic and run away, they naturally didn't run away either.

As time passed, the people got used to it and went to the streets to sell food as usual every day to support their families.

Su Bujing thought, drank the tea in one gulp, paid the bill, went to the drug store, bought some mugwort and took it home.

As soon as he entered the house, Su Bujing was hugged by Su Buyou's leg, "Sister! You sneaked out to play again! You need to take me with you next time!"

Su Buwei followed over, caught the mugwort bag in Su Bujing's hand, and said to Su Buyou: "You are not allowed to go out, stay at home, or I will file a complaint with my father!"

Su Buyou pursed his lips and shouted: "Second brother is a swindler and only knows how to complain! I..."

Seeing that the two of them were about to start a quarrel, Su Bujing quickly changed the subject and said, "Okay, little brother, quickly put the mugwort in the kitchen. We will boil water for foot soaking in the evening."

"Second brother, go cook quickly. I want to drink chicken soup tonight. Dad will be back soon."

Su Buwei and Su Buyou looked at each other, snorted each, and turned to do their work.

Su Bujing couldn't laugh or cry: These two people really have different noses!

In the sky, dark clouds as dense as iron blocks were spread thickly in the sky. Not even a trace of sunlight came through, which made people feel depressed.

From time to time, he could still see a group of birds scurrying around like crazy and screaming loudly, which made Su Bujing feel very upset.

Su Bujing sat on the threshold, looked up at the gloomy sky, took a deep breath, and said to himself:
"Strange...it's been cloudy for several days, why hasn't it rained yet?"

Counting the time, although the sun is about to set now, the sky shouldn't be so dark that it seems like it's going to be night.

Such a weird phenomenon couldn't help but make Su Bujing fall into deep thought.

Cultivators are close to spiritual energy and have some sense of upcoming dangers. Although it is not as good as Su Buyou's precognitive dream, it is extremely accurate.

Su Bujing has been feeling uncomfortable all over lately, and his heart is always beating wildly.

Is something big going to happen?

Su Bujing squinted his eyes, tried his best to control his rapid breathing, and held the spirit stone in his purse tightly with his right hand.

I secretly decided in my heart that I must enter the Immortal Mansion to practice at night.

Now, only practicing can alleviate her irritability slightly.

Because only by becoming stronger can you be fearless.

After a while, Su Yuanshan came back from outside.Su Buwei made two dishes and one soup skillfully. The family gathered around the table and talked about what happened today.

Su Bujing listened to the family-friendly conversation, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and praised Su Buwei:
"Second brother, I never thought you could be so good at cooking even though you look so fussy! This chicken soup is so fragrant!"

Su Buwei raised his eyebrows proudly and said with a smile: "That's right, the second brother doesn't pay attention to the nonsense of those gentlemen who stay away from the chef. The second brother just thought, this is what my sister wants to eat, and it must be delicious enough... eh , as well as daddy and little brother.”

Su Yuanshan:......

I understand, he and Buyou are by the way, this is really his filial son!

Su Buwei hurriedly scooped a bowl of soup for Su Yuanshan and said in a flattering manner: "Dad, you eat!"

Su Yuanshan laughed and clapped Su Buwei's hand, and drank the soup as he was told, "Are you still used to wearing this sandbag?"

Su Buwei waved his hands in mock disdain and said, "Oh, it's just a trivial matter!"

Su Bujing said at the right time: "I understand, I will make it heavier for the second brother tomorrow and add some iron sand into it!"

Su Buwei's smile froze and he said without tears, "My sister is so kind to me."

Su Yuanshan and Su Buyou were made to laugh.

Although the weather was bad and the whole family was not together, everyone still had dinner happily.

After the meal, they boiled water, soaked mugwort in water, burned their feet, and chatted a few words.

Su Bujing returned to the room, looked through the wooden window and looked at the sky outside again.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, but if you look carefully, you can still see gray clouds gathering together in the sky.

Su Bujing turned his head, exhaled a breath, and immediately entered the Immortal Mansion to practice.

The concentration of spiritual energy in the Immortal Mansion is higher, and the speed of cultivation there is also rapid.

When he got up the next day, Su Bujing wanted to absorb the purple energy of the sunrise on the horizon to practice, but when he looked up, he saw that the sky that should have been bright and bright was still shrouded in dark clouds.

Even at noon when the sun is at its strongest, there is only a little more dim yellow light.

The entire Bai County seemed to be shrouded in thick smoke, with not much light visible.

Su Bujing sparred with Su Buwei for a while in the morning, and helped Su Buyou clear his meridians.

In the afternoon, I went out as an exception and went to a tea shop to kill time. I heard that the topic of these traveling businessmen had changed from the Qizhou rebels to the strange weather today.

"It's been cloudy for so many days, why hasn't it rained yet? If it does, it should rain quickly. Seriously!"

"Not only is Bai County like this, but Yixian County also has this weird weather!"

"Ouch, it looks like it's going to rain heavily!"

After listening to the complaints, Su Bujing drank the tea and returned home.

While walking down the street, I heard neighbors discussing that they couldn’t wash their bedding in the past few days, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to work.

Everyone obviously attributed these anomalies to the upcoming heavy rain, which might lead to a few thunders if it gets serious.

Su Bujing couldn't help but panic. After thinking for a moment, he went home and got some money. He took Su Buwei to the cloth store first and bought fur coats made of deerskin, sheepskin, and fox skin, three for each person.

There are also thick cotton cloth and jackets, boots with soft and warm interiors, cloaks and capes for winter, and some large fur materials.

Then I went and bought a whole bucket of ginger.

Looking at the money spent in their hands, Su Bujing and Su Buwei returned home with their belongings in large and small bags.
