The sound of rain is particularly loud. The small inn between these two cities is originally simple. The eaves are made of simple folk plaster tiles. These tiles are all made of ordinary yellow mud. Because there are no strict process requirements, most of the finished products are hollow. Not only are they fragile, but they also make loud noises when they hit. At this time, the eaves of the small inn are being hit by raindrops. The sounds are like someone playing a lamely.

Jiang Weizhen, who had not slept for a night in such an environment, did not wake up. She lay on the bed, and saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth to the pillow, and it was a shiny piece. Chen Ming was different. He also had not slept for a night. After he came back, he only slept with his clothes for an hour. After getting up, he ate something to fill his stomach and stopped the sound of rain.

Screaming, Chen Ming opened the window of the room. The rain outside was already very heavy, so heavy that pedestrians on the road could hardly see clearly. Chen Ming could only see a vast white area, and what he heard was a clamor.

"When is this... when?" Finally, Jiang Weizhen was woken up. If he could not wake him up so loudly after opening the window, then he would be helpless. Jiang Weizhen wiped the corners of his mouth and asked, "Is it raining heavily outside Master Chen?"

Chen Ming let out his body and exposed the window completely in front of Jiang Weizhen. When Jiang Weizhen saw the heavy rain, he immediately jumped out of the bed and shouted at the top of his throat: "Oh my God! This spring rain is coming too urgently!"

Even Chen Ming, a person who is used to big scenes, was a little confused about Jiang Weizhen's behavior. Jiang Weizhen pushed him aside. Then the usually gentle scholar clasped the window edge with his hands, and then shouted with a look of extreme horror: "Isn't it still cloudy when we came back this morning? It's going to rain so heavily, this...this is beyond my expectations!"

Is this the rain before or what? Chen Ming was almost amused by Jiang Weizhen. Before his smile could be revealed on his face, he began to realize the reason behind Jiang Weizhen's abnormal behavior.

"Master Chen, I have to go to Huangshui immediately!"

Jiang Weizhen didn't care about Chen Ming anymore. He put on his shoes and ran downstairs. He was directly wet by heavy rain at the entrance of the small inn. Suddenly, an umbrella was stretched over his head. Jiang Weizhen turned his head and saw Chen Ming standing behind him with an umbrella.

Oh, my mind was really muddy. It was raining so hard that I ran out without putting an umbrella. At this moment, Jiang Weizhen felt a little embarrassed when she looked at Chen Ming. Chen Ming handed the umbrella to Jiang Weizhen and said, "It rains so heavily, keep an umbrella, otherwise you will be infected with the cold if you get wet."

Chen Ming took the lead in the heavy rain. Jiang Weizhen hurriedly took off his cloth shoes and stuffed them into his arms, and followed barefoot. As soon as he entered the heavy rain, it was a comprehensive test for people. The first is eyesight. Chen Ming was obviously not far away in front of him, but Jiang Weizhen could only distinguish it with Chen Ming's blue robe. Fortunately, Shen Ming wore it today.

He was wearing a dark blue robe. If it were the moon white that he wore most often on weekdays, Jiang Weizhen would have been completely blind. The second was his ear strength. The sound of the thundering sound kept filling his ears and did not stop for a moment. There was almost no other sound except the sound of the thundering rain.

Under the double torture of eyesight and ear strength, Jiang Weizhen spent every step he took. Because the heavy rain had already started to accumulate water on the streets. Originally, these mud roads that were not official roads were bumpy and could not be felt during sunny days. Once it rained heavily, they had to walk carefully, one step deep and one step shallow. Jiang Weizhen had already taken off her shoes and walked more slowly, but he was anxious. It would not be a good thing if he got separated from Shen Ming.

Jiang Weizhen was anxious and quickly accelerated and ran a few steps. In just a few steps, he stepped into a deep pit. His ankle tilted and his whole ankle was about to fall into the mud. Jiang Weizhen felt that someone was helping his waist, and his originally stolen body fell into Chen Ming's arms.

This... Jiang Weizhen asked himself that he was a big man. His cheeks were so embarrassed that he was so embarrassed that he was so embarrassed that he was so embarrassed that he quickly stood up to thank him. Chen Ming answered very calmly, "It's okay, you must be careful when walking in such heavy rain. Why did you take off your shoes? Barefoot is easily injured?"

"This cloth shoes are not waterproof at all, and they will be completely useless when they step on the mud and water. I have just bought them for two months and I feel a little reluctant to let them go."

Chen Ming smiled and said nothing, but he obviously slowed down the pace of the next road. The closer he got to Huangshui, the more difficult the road became. Chen Ming even directly supported Jiang Weizhen, and the two walked hand in hand.

Under the erosion of heavy rain, the Huangshui River is no longer the original Huangshui River. The already wide river surface is like a vast ocean, with turbid waves surging. What Jiang Weizhen cares most about is Bingzhou City on the other side. He stood on the high ground and looked hard, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not see the situation on the other side. What he could see was still a cluster of white rain and fog.

"I know what you're worried about."

"If the rain continues like this, it will not be a good thing for Huazhou and Beijing!"

"Huangshui originated from the mountains behind the capital. Judging from the terrain, it was originally the highest position in the capital. Even if the water volume of the Huangshui River increases, it will not flow back into the capital."

"The terrain of the capital is indeed the highest, but Master Chen, I suspect that the target of the Tang people is Huazhou."

"Huazhou? The terrain of Huazhou..."

Chen Ming fell into thinking for a moment. He wanted to see the Huazhou city not far away, but the heavy rain curtain hindered all his sight. Jiang Weizhen said loudly: "Master Chen, everyone thinks that the terrain of Huazhou is higher than that of Bingzhou. In fact, it is not the case that the terrain of Huazhou is actually the same as that of Bingzhou. The reason why people have the illusion that the terrain of Huazhou is higher is the trend of Huangshui."

Chen Ming began to understand after being reminded,

He looked at the Huangshui body again and became more intuitive. Indeed, when people judged the height of the terrain, they always compared a fixed location. The best setting between Bingzhou and Huazhou is Huangshui. If Huangshui is a plane, then Bingzhou will have a lower terrain and Huazhou will have a higher terrain. But what if Huangshui was not flat originally?

Although the direction of the river will not change significantly for a long time, it is only judged by people's naked eyes. In fact, the bottom of the river has undergone unknown changes under the erosion day after day.

Take the Huangshui River as an example. There will be a major flood season almost every two years. At this time, the water volume is very abundant. The erosion of the river water will take away a lot of mud and sand. Once these mud and sand accumulate at the bottom of the river, it will invisibly change the original river channel. If the water flow is uneven, then more mud and sand will accumulate in one position. Over time, this position will slowly rise. If the mud and sand accumulate near the Bingzhou side, then the river channel outside Bingzhou City is actually very deep. Under the same water surface, there is more mud and sand below the Bingzhou side, and under the water surface of Huazhou, there is more real river water.

"In such a complicated situation, how could you know if you didn't go down to Huangshui in person? Is your judgment accurate?"

"Master Chen, I know nothing about force, but I know very well when it comes to water conservancy. I have a preliminary judgment that the river channel does not necessarily need to dive into the bottom of the water to see. Last night, the moonlight was bright, and I saw the ships on the other side of the Tang Dynasty, which made such a conjecture."

"The ships that went down to Tang? These ships should have sunk to the bottom of the river at this time, right?"

"That's the worst!"

"Why? It should be a good thing for us to sink the ship."

"Damn it! Oh, those wrecks will protect Bingzhou! As for the detailed reasons, I will explain to you carefully on the way. We must return to Beijing immediately at present!"

"So heavy rain is a big disadvantage to our itinerary."

"No matter how unfavorable it is, it can't wait. When Tangren really starts to take action, it will definitely be a catastrophe for Huazhou!"

Jiang Weizhen ran towards the small inn. When the two of them tried hard to arrive at the inn, it was already dusk. It was obvious that the rain still did not decrease at this time. With Jiang Weizhen's insistence, Chen Ming hired two horses at a high price, and the two of them started to gallop towards the capital under the rain curtain.

At this moment, Yong Wuya, who was standing at the head of Bingzhou City, looked at the continuous rain screen and showed an expression of satisfaction involuntarily. It was really God helping me. This time even God is standing on our side. Yang Zhong, Yang Zhong, do you think it would be useful to use such despicable tricks? It's just digging a grave for yourself! Soon you will see the power of the angry heaven.

Yang Zhong sneezes. He had already sneezes a few times. Maybe he caught a cold, but he didn't care. Such bad days were also unpleasant for Xia Tang. As long as the rain did not stop, he would have some time to relax.
