Chapter 2470 Stormy weather (two chapters in one)(1/2)
Zecheng.
The sky was overcast, and compared to the gloomy sky an hour ago, it became as dark as ink.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead returned to the inn. At this moment, he looked at the changes in the sky in the distance and frowned.
Such a pitch-black sky showed a worse situation than the previous heavy rainstorm that had been falling for a long time.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is now thinking whether this heavy rain will be more violent than the previous heavy rain.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a sudden knock on the door of the room.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard the knock on the door and immediately shouted to the person outside.
"Come in."
The waiter standing outside the door heard the voice of permission and immediately opened the door and walked in.
"What's the matter?" The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the waiter and asked him about his purpose.
"Sir, there will be a heavy rainstorm in the near future. I would like to remind you to close the doors and windows to prevent rainwater from pouring in and making the room a mess." The waiter reminded you kindly.
The reason why there is such a reminder is because some guests forgot to close the doors and windows before, and then the room suffered.
At that time, all the guest rooms in the hotel were occupied, and the rooms were in a mess due to the rain. The guest had no choice but to make do with the hotel if he wanted to change rooms.
When the shopkeeper found out about this, he immediately told the waiter that when it was going to rain, he must remind his customers to avoid this happening again.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead listened to what the waiter said and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
The waiter didn't leave after he finished speaking. He looked at the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead and asked.
"Sir, we have purchased a batch of fruits in the store. Would you like some?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was about to refuse, but after thinking about it he could try it, so he nodded and asked the other party to give him a portion.
The waiter left with a smile and closed the door as he left.
"Boom."
A silver-white electric light suddenly flashed in the distant sky, followed by deafening thunder that echoed throughout the world.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was standing in front of the window. He was chatting with the waiter just now. Now he suddenly heard the sound of thunder and couldn't help being startled.
As for the passers-by on the road, their situation was no better than that of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
These ordinary people were frightened by the sudden thunder, and some of the less courageous ones fell to the ground.
The sky in the distance is getting darker and darker. It's obviously not dark yet, but the area shrouded in dark clouds is already like evening.
Pedestrians on the road heard the thunder and began to speed back home.
Now everyone has experience in this situation. After thunder, rain is not far away.
Many shops along the street are closed because of heavy rainstorms in the past few times. The rain was very heavy. The doors were not closed and the rainwater poured into the shops. Many products were affected and suffered considerable losses.
Of course, there are also some store owners who are more stubborn and want to wait a little longer. What if it doesn’t rain too much?
"Boom..."
Thunder and lightning appeared frequently in the quiet sky. Terrible thunder streaked across the sky, and silver-white lightning branched out, illuminating a large area.
Passers-by walking on the road, who were originally walking fast, were now running. As for some horse-drawn carriages, their speed actually slowed down.
The reason why this happens is because the horse is frightened. If you rush it at this time, an accident may occur.
The coachman calmed the frightened horses and calmed them down, then slowed down and drove on.
The pedestrians on the road disappeared quickly, and before long, the originally lively streets became empty.
"The weather is getting worse several times faster than everyone expected."
I originally thought that the thunder would last for a while, but it turned out better now that the first burst of thunder was much shorter than expected.
Heavy raindrops fell from the sky, making the dry road surface wet.
The trees on both sides of the street made a crackling sound from the rain.
"call……"
Before it rained, the clouds turned as black as ink and there was constant thunder, but there was almost no wind.
Once the rain starts, the wind starts to blow more and more fiercely.
"Shashasha..."
When the flowers, plants and trees were hit by raindrops, they were also constantly blown by the fierce wind.
When the leafy plants swayed, the lush branches and leaves collided and made a noisy sound.
This is not the first time for the residents of Zecheng to experience such a heavy rain, and they now have rich experience.
When the wind is blowing so hard, it is best not to walk under the tree, because the branches are likely to be broken by the wind and then fall on you.
As the carriage was driving on the road, a branch of a big tree not far ahead was broken by the wind and fell instantly from the tree.
Fortunately, the coachman avoided passing under the tree, otherwise the branch would definitely hit the horse.
But even so, the horse was still frightened.
"Xiao Hei, calm down."
The coachman controlled the reins and at the same time calmed the restless black horse.
The pig-headed captain, who was standing in front of the window and looking out with a brown birthmark on his forehead, saw this scene and raised his hand to touch his chin and muttered to himself.
"If the coachman waits a little longer to appease the horse, he will encounter more and more of this kind of thing later."
This heavy rainstorm has just begun, and the weather will only get worse in the future.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the violently swaying trees and thought that after this heavy rain, not many of these trees would be able to survive intact.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door, and you didn't even need to think about it to know who knocked on the door.
The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead shouted to the person outside the door as before, and the other person pushed the door open and entered.
The waiter who left the shop came back with a large plate of fruit in his hand.
These fruits come in different colors, and each one looks very plump. It is obvious that the inn’s purchasing staff has carefully selected them.
"Sir, the fruit you requested has arrived." The waiter said with a smile.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, then took out some money from his pocket and threw it to the waiter.
"Thank you, sir." The waiter received the reward and the smile on his face became even brighter.
After the other party left, the only sound left in the room was the sound of wind and rain coming from the window.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the table, picked up a red fruit and took a bite.
"This fruit is so delicious."
"It's a pity that the shelf life is limited, otherwise I could take some back home for everyone to try."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead would think of his companions thousands of miles away every time he encountered something delicious.
"Wow, wow, wow..."
Heavy rain fell from the sky, and as time passed, the rain became heavier and heavier.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in front of the window, eating fruit and looking at the street scene outside the window.
The rain was heavier than expected, and the intensity of the rain was amazing.
I thought the last heavy rainstorm was terrible enough, but I didn't expect that the rain this time was much heavier than the last one.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, looked towards the end of the street and found many figures rushing on their way.
These people were going to drain water. Although people had been arranged to prepare in low-lying areas before the rain, the scale of the rain exceeded many people's imagination, so additional personnel had to be dispatched immediately to enhance the efficiency of drainage.
Soldiers wearing raincoats ran quickly in the rain. Not long after, dozens of soldiers passed by the inn and quickly disappeared at the end of the street in the distance.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had just finished the fruit on his hand and was about to go back to get another fruit.
Suddenly I saw a shop diagonally opposite trying to close its doors. It was raining heavily and the wind was getting stronger and stronger. The shop that was not closed before was now suffering.
Strong winds blew into the store, and a large amount of rainwater was also carried into the store. The storekeeper and his employees were trying their best to close the door.
However, the wind was so strong that it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to close the door.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the scene happening not far away and muttered to himself.
"It wouldn't be like this if we closed earlier. I hope you can succeed."
After saying that, he turned around and left, returned to the table, picked two fruits, and returned to the window to look at the endangered shop.
As the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead thought, the shopkeepers and employees were just ordinary people. In the face of such a fierce wind, they would have more than enough energy to close the door.
Similar things happen a lot on this street, and some people are lucky enough to keep their doors closed.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead could now stand in front of the window and calmly watch what was happening in the distance.
