Chapter 441
The rain still fell in a timely manner, but Zhang Yi and the others quickly found a place to shelter from the rain.

Zhang Yi looked at the sky. If it wasn't raining, it should be the time when the sky was just bright. At this time, it was the time when many people started their day's work, and such a rain directly disrupted everyone's plans. There has to be a change.

However, there was nothing they could do. After all, it was beyond their control whether it would rain or not. Now, they could only honestly wait for the rain to stop.

But God seemed to be against them, the light rain continued for an hour, and there was no intention of stopping.

"We've only traveled less than [-] miles, and it's raining, and the rain hasn't stopped yet. It's really not fair."

Xu Jingzong stood under a dripping eaves and sighed looking at the gloomy sky.

The place where they took shelter from the rain was a small town, and this town may have been looted by the Tibetans, the number of people was pitifully small, so many houses were empty.

However, their team of hundreds of people and hundreds of carriages filled the town again.

Those carriages were given priority to places where they could hide from the rain, and for the sake of safety, Zhang Yi also asked everyone to block the rainproof tools such as coir raincoats on top of the carriages to prevent the goods on the carriages from being exposed to the rain.

Fortunately, there are many empty houses in the town, and those places are enough to park so many carriages, and so many of them can just stand under the eaves to hide from the rain.

But they couldn't do anything other than hide from the rain. There were too many people and the space was too small.

"Yeah, according to the situation, we probably won't be able to reach Qingtang tomorrow morning."

Zhang Yi also sighed. The rain would not only wet their cargo, but also make the road muddy, which would definitely affect their speed.

"Is it because we didn't choose a good date, shouldn't we be on the road at this time?"

After all, Xu Jingzong is older, and older people are more superstitious, especially in this era, there is no such word as superstition.

Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Zhang Yi frowned slightly. This time, he decided to bring so much goods to Qingtang at once, so many people still have some opinions on this decision. Even if they compromised in the end, they still I think Zhang Yi's approach is too risky.

Although they can go back to Chang'an faster if they succeed, they would rather slow down, just to be on the safe side, so they are somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Yi's adventure, and now they are stopped by rain not long after they came out They, if they can't say it, someone has to think about those aspects.

Sure enough, Zhang Yi guessed right. Just after Xu Jingzong finished speaking, many people around him nodded.

People in this era are still relatively superstitious, and what Xu Jingzong said now is exactly what they want to say. The rain blocks the road, and they have to stop, so they can't continue their journey. This shows that God may be hinting at them , making them abandon their current plans.

"Uncle, how about we go back?"

Behind Zhang Yi, a person from Zhangjiazhuang asked softly, and the people around who heard the voice also gently listened to the movement here, to see if Zhang Yi had any arrangements.

Zhang Yi squinted at the man, then looked at Wang Wu, why did Zhangjiazhuang produce such a talent?
Wang Wu was glanced at by Zhang Yi, and knew that the person said the wrong thing just now, so he immediately yelled with a dark face: "Zhang Dali, you have dared to eat a leopard, do you have a place to speak here? Decide It's grown-ups who do it, not people like us who can say more, we just do things according to the adults' orders."

Although Wang Wu's roar made some people shut up, more and more people would think it wrong.

Zhang Yi took a glance. Except for some Zhangjiazhuang people who absolutely trusted him, some other people had already begun to complain a little.

"Waiting for half an hour, if the rain hasn't stopped after half an hour, then go on the road in the rain!"

Zhang Yi snorted coldly with a dark face, and after speaking, he flicked his sleeves and went to sit in an empty room.

Seeing Zhang Yi's appearance, the people around closed their mouths tightly.

As long as their eyes are not blind, they can all see that Zhang Yi is angry. Who dares to say anything at this time, it is not a joke.

Xu Jingzong looked at Zhang Yi, and he also knew that what he said just now was inappropriate, but what he said was like poured water that cannot be taken back, and everyone heard it, and it was precisely because everyone felt it was inappropriate , so it is as it is now.
Xu Jingzong thought a lot, but in the end he still had to go into the room and sit next to Zhang Yi.

After all, Zhang Yi is the real talker in the current team. If he really loses his temper, they will bear it.

This time is not the time to care about personal feelings, they must focus on the overall situation, and now their plan has reached the most critical time.

"Do you have any plans, sir?"

As soon as Xu Jingzong sat down, Zhang Yi immediately asked with a cold face, if Xu Jingzong hadn't said that just now, who would dare to say anything?

Xu Jingzong coughed in embarrassment. He knew that Zhang Yi was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him, so he didn't speak, just quietly watching the raindrops outside.

At this time, let Zhang Yi calm down and talk first. If the two of them split here, then their plan this time will undoubtedly fail.

After about half a quarter of an hour, Zhang Yi's anger had almost subsided, and he tapped the stool under his buttocks lightly with his fingers just now.

Hearing the voice, Xu Jingzong knew that Zhang Yi had lost his temper, but at this time he didn't want to say anything to Zhang Yi, so he had to go outside.

He went outside not to hide from Zhang Yi, but to save the bad influence he had just caused.

When Zhang Yi gave that order just now when he was angry, more people would definitely not be able to understand it. Although they did not doubt their loyalty and execution ability, once subordinates complained to their superiors, it would definitely not be a good thing.

But now Zhang Yi couldn't take back the order, so Xu Jingzong had no choice but to go outside to enlighten those people.

Half an hour later, the rain had lightened a lot, but it was still falling.

"Pack up and get ready to go."

Zhang Yi said that he put on a coir raincoat, and then walked into the rain first.

Yue Shiyi followed behind Zhang Yi, glanced at Xu Jingzong, and then walked into the rain.

Zhang Yi issued an order, and everyone started to pack their things and set off. At this time, Xu Jingzong couldn't say anything, he could only urge everyone to do a good job of preventing the rain.

In fact, if it weren't for what he said just now, Zhang Yi would not have given these orders at all. It was precisely because of this that Xu Jingzong didn't dare to say more.
