Chapter 87 Pray for Rain
"I'll come to Beijing to find you!" Duan Yiming said in a low voice, turned around and walked into the room, walking hurriedly.

Looking at his back, Meng Xiaosuo suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, thinking that there were still undistributed pills in his hand, so he found a secluded corner and returned to the space again.Although the old man Shui has gone outside, the wall of water is still there, and the waves are flowing and crystal clear.

She came to Lin County with the help of the water wall, and appeared in an empty mansion.

This house is exactly where Wu Miaoxin lived before.I don't know where Yun Feitian and Wu Miaoxin are now.

Meng Xiaoshu walked out of the mansion and asked the passing villagers, only then did she know that Wu Miaoxin had gone to the east of the village to pray for rain.While asking for directions, she walked towards the east end of the village, and she didn't go far before she saw the high platform for praying for rain.

Wu Miaoxin, who was dressed in a plain white long dress, stood on the high platform, her face was still covered by tulle, her eyes were picturesque, she held a long stick in her hand, and muttered words.

It's really a pity to pretend to be something, not to be an actor.Meng Xiaosuo sneered, watching her swing the stick up and down, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, and muttered to herself: "What is the stick for..."

"It's called a sky stick. If you break the clouds and mist, God will rain." A villager beside her said.

Just as he was talking, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a muffled thunder.

"It's going to rain! It's going to rain!"

The crowd cheered.

"Thunder first, then rain. The rain is often heavy, but it doesn't last long." Meng Xiaoshu frowned. Although she knew that the old man Shui was capable of raining three or four times, the first one was not to her liking. .

Hearing Meng Xiaosuo's words, the villager immediately showed an angry face: "Bah, bah, bah! Crow's mouth, the bad ones don't work, the bad ones don't work!"

"Well, it doesn't work." Meng Xiaosuo also spat. Although she never believed in this, she still hoped that the drought could be resolved as soon as possible.

Just as she was thinking, something icy and cold suddenly fell on top of her head, she stretched out her hand to touch it, it was wet, was it rainwater?

"It's raining! It's raining!"

"Thank goodness..."

"The medical girl is really a fairy, a fairy!"

Everyone was ecstatic, and some burst into tears on the spot.

After the rain, the drought eased, but the rice in the field could not be saved.Even if there are a few rice fields that can survive because of the rain, they have been damaged by the drought, and I am afraid that they will not produce any millet in the future.

For farmers in the mountains, the field is life, and the rice is money. Without money, life is worthless. I'm afraid there will be a big famine after autumn, and I don't know how many people will starve to death...

Meng Xiaocom also understood this truth, and had already made a plan in her heart.

The rain didn't come in a big way and for a short time as she predicted, but it continued for a while, and it didn't show any sign of stopping.The dry land first emitted hot smoke, and then gradually became muddy.Standing among the cheering villagers, she always had a calm and thoughtful face, which was naturally very eye-catching, but she didn't notice it at all.

Suddenly, someone patted her on the shoulder.

"Who?" Meng Xiaocom turned around.

A strange face came into view, it was Yun Feitian.He was holding an oiled paper umbrella, perhaps because he was afraid that the disguise on his face would get wet. Although this disguised face still felt strange to Meng Xiaocom, those deep and valley-like eyes made Meng Xiaocom feel like he was still there again. It was familiar, as if it had been seen somewhere in the previous life.

"I thought you wouldn't come back." Yun Feitian said, moving the oil-paper umbrella over Meng Xiao's comb.

The imperial decree has come, Meng Xiaosu didn't want to go to Beijing at first, now there happens to be a fake doctor girl who can take her place, if she hides, Yun Feitian won't feel anything strange.He had said before that he would never force Meng Xiaosuo on this matter.

"I'm not someone who leaves without saying good-bye." Meng Xiaosuo said, suddenly felt a little funny, she didn't understand why Yun Feitian always thought of her badly.But she didn't bother to argue, anyway, what she's going to do in the future isn't something merciful, so let him think he's a villain, so that he won't say things like "painting a tiger's skin is hard to paint its bones, knowing the face but not the heart" in the future.

"Is the medicine for the plague ready?" Yun Feitian asked.

Meng Xiaosuo nodded: "You'd better disguise me first, lest your medical girl get suspicious."

Yun Feitian looked up, and Wu Miaoxin on the high platform was indeed looking at this side, so he said: "The ceremony of praying for rain is very complicated, and it will last at least half an hour. I will leave first, and you will leave after half a stick of incense. See you in the mansion, don't be caught by Wu Miaoxin."

"Understood." Meng Xiaocom watched Yun Feitian walk away, then pretended to be careless, wandered among the crowd for a while, and then slowly left.Once out of Wu Miaoxin's sight, she quickened her pace.

Fortunately, information dissemination is inconvenient in this day and age, otherwise, as a medical girl, people in the two counties would have already remembered her face.Right now, only a few people in Shanbei County have seen her, and they have only seen her masked. The villagers in Shannan County regard Wu Miaoxin as a medical girl.

Yun Feitian had already been waiting in the house, and led Meng Xiaoshu to a remote hut, and asked her to sit in front of the bronze mirror.

The ancient mirrors were all very blurry. Meng Xiaocoma suddenly felt a little regretful. Why didn't she read a lot to increase her knowledge? If she remembered how those clear mercury mirrors were made before time travel, she might be able to make women in this world , really see their respective faces clearly, instead of dressing up in front of a blurred face.

Yun Feitian took out many large and small wooden boxes from a drawer, opened them one by one, and took out three or five brushes of different lengths and thicknesses from another drawer, and combed Meng Xiao's face very skillfully.Anyway, his hands were extremely fast, like two phantoms, and Meng Xiaosuo didn't even think about seeing any tricks, so he simply closed his eyes, too lazy to look at it, too lazy to think about it.

After a while, Yun Feitian stopped, Meng Xiaocom looked at his face in the bronze mirror, and raised his eyebrows: "It seems exactly the same as last time."

Yun Feitian approached, observed carefully for a while, and said, "Well, there should be no difference."

The two got very close unconsciously, so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.

The air seemed to be a little hot and dry, Meng Xiaocom coughed lightly, and turned her face away pretending to be nonchalant: "It would be great if your disguise technique could be waterproof."

"It's okay, but it's much more troublesome than this. After arriving in the capital, I'll find some skins and make a mask, so I don't have to spend so much effort every day to disguise you." Yun Feitian said, Pointing to a set of clothes on the chair, "I'm going out first, you can change."
