"Yiyi, a 12-level typhoon will land tomorrow night, and the wind seems to be increasing. Although tomorrow is not a good day to set off, the flower snake fruit on Taifeng Mountain, 30 to 40 kilometers outside Beijing, can't wait."

"Its maturity period is only three days, and tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow is its maturity period. You must pick it within three days after it matures."

"If you miss this one, you won't be so lucky to find the next one. Not only will there be no ripe fruits within a month, but the nearest one is 800 kilometers away from the capital."

Xu Jinyi exclaimed in her heart: "The flower snake fruit is so rare?!"

"Otherwise, why would flower snakes become extinct? All things are interdependent and mutually exclusive, and if flower snakes are going to become extinct, how long will it take for flower snake fruit to disappear? So I suggest that you leave as soon as possible, Yiyi."

"In case a typhoon comes and you can't leave, when you get to Taifeng Mountain, find a cave to avoid the typhoon first, then wait for the fruits to ripen and find a safe time to pick them within three days."

"Or, you can leave now to prevent the typhoon from arriving early."

Xu Jinyi:! ! !

Looking at the still dark sky, Xu Jinyi said to Han Ting: "Brother, the herbs we want to pick can't wait. If we miss their maturity period, Xinyue will have no herbs left, so we must set out early tomorrow morning."

"The storm is coming, we just need to be more prepared. Bring a few more sets of clothes, and ask the housekeeper to pack more things."

Han Ting naturally agreed. After all, Xinyue was his only blood relative in this world.

"It's still a few hours before dawn. I'll have someone bring you some ice. You can get some more sleep."

It was quite difficult for Xu Jinyi to fall asleep again after waking up, but she did not refuse, in case she said she didn't want to sleep and Han Ting would accompany her instead of doing his own things.

The typhoon was above level 12, and the place they had to go was still in the mountains, so Xu Jinyi did not dare to be careless.

After all, when a typhoon enters the mountains, there are more dangers.

You may encounter landslides, mudslides, or fallen trees at any time.

So Xu Jinyi, who hadn't slept yet, started packing her things, and even packed a few more sets of clothes, so that at least she would have something to change into if they got wet.

Then bring a long rope, which might be useful for collecting herbs.

After all, she wanted to pick more than just one flower snake fruit. According to Xiaoqi's description, other medicinal herbs could all be found in Taifeng Mountain.

Then there were some healing medicines, poisoned silver needles for self-defense, and daggers...

The weather changed quietly. The dull weather suddenly turned into a strong wind, and the fallen leaves in the yard were spinning in the air.

Seeing this scene, Xu Jinyi's heart sank, and he always had a bad feeling.

But as the day dawned, Xu Jinyi and his companions set off as scheduled.

They didn't bring many people with them, just two people and a driver, and they left the capital in an ordinary horse-drawn carriage.

After all, he is the regent. If others learn of his whereabouts, the danger of this trip will not be a typhoon, but waves of assassinations.

The two of them sat in the carriage. Xu Jinyi looked through the screen window at the trees swaying in the wind outside, and at the gloomy sky, hoping that the fish would fish later.

It’s best to wait until they find a place to stay in Taifeng Mountain before going down.

"If it's thirty or forty kilometers, how long will it take to get there?" Xu Jinyi asked.

"At this rate, it should take all morning."

Xu Jinyi frowned and asked the driver to speed up, not caring about the bumps, and to go as fast as possible.

As the carriage accelerated, Xu Jinyi swayed from side to side in the carriage, almost unable to keep his balance.

Han Ting simply held the person in his arms, but Xu Jinyi, who had just finished breakfast, couldn't stand such bumpy ride and felt like he was about to vomit his breakfast.

"Stop, stop, stop."

"Brother, why don't we just go there on horseback? Maybe it will be faster and we can arrive before the rainstorm."

In this way, the two men hung all the luggage on the horse's back, untied the tied carriage, left some silver to the coachman, and rode away on one horse.

Xu Jinyi sat in the front, her petite body embraced in Han Ting's arms, her flying hair brushed across his handsome cheeks, the free wind blew, and this moment seemed very romantic.

As the wind and sand flew, Xu Jinyi could hardly open his eyes. He turned his face to the side and buried his head in Han Ting's chest.

"Want to stop and rest for a while?"

Xu Jinyi shook his head: "I can hold on."

The dull thunder in the sky made Xu Jinyi dare not stop to rest. It would be troublesome if it rained halfway.

Half an hour later, Xu Jinyi, with a frown on his face, finally couldn't stand it anymore and called a halt.

"I'll help you down and we'll take a break."

Xu Jinyi: "No, no need to rest. I'm not tired, but my legs hurt from sitting like this. I want to sit sideways. Brother, hold me and don't let me fall."

Han Ting saw her rubbing her legs and realized that it might be an abrasion, so he put his arms around her waist and lifted her up into the air, letting her sit sideways in front of him.

I had been lying on the horse with my legs stretched out, and they were already sore and painful. Now I felt a lot more relaxed.

"Brother, let's go."

It's clearly daytime now. The sun was out at this time yesterday, but it's getting darker today.

It didn't look like dawn, but rather night. Xu Jinyi always felt that a storm was coming.

There was no place to hide from the storm along the way, nor any tea houses or estates, and there were only forests on both sides.

So if it rains heavily at this time, they will be in trouble.

The two did not dare to stop, fortunately God was kind to them and they arrived at Taifeng Mountain safely along the way.

However, Xu Jinyi's heart rose to his throat when he looked at the strong winds, the shaking trees, the flashing lightning, and the deafening thunder.

"Xiao Qi, besides going up the mountain, is there any place nearby to hide from the rain?"

As soon as the question was asked, a big drop of rain fell.

Even before Xiao Qi answered, Han Ting responded first. He immediately carried Xu Jinyi and ran up the mountain.

Xiaoqi also gave an answer, asking her to go up the mountain because there was no place nearby where she could hide from the rain.

As the merciless rain fell, the two were soaked after just a few steps.

The wind was very strong and it hurt when the rain hit my face. I couldn't open my eyes and couldn't see the road in front of me.

Xu Jinyi could only squint his eyes and follow Han Ting blindly.

"Brother, do you know where we can take shelter from the rain?"

The thunder rumbled, so loud that even Xu Jinyi was frightened.

Especially when bright flashes of lightning streaked across the sky, Xu Jinyi became even more worried.

At this time, I was under the tree and was soaked all over. If I was struck by lightning, I would really have to meet the King of Hell.

"Just a few hundred meters ahead. There's a cave where we can take shelter."

Before Xu Jinyi had time to be happy, he stepped into a quagmire and fell down with a thud.

"hiss……"

When you're unlucky, even drinking water will get stuck in your teeth. The pain in your feet made Xu Jinyi frown.

Han Ting picked him up by the waist with a distressed look on his face: "Are you okay? It's hard to practice Qinggong here, the trees are too dense, I'll carry you."
