After a brief rest in Changping County for half a day, Xiao Jinren set out again. Xiao Jinren changed from his previous slow pace. Not only did he give the order to hurry up when the genius was bright, he also asked to increase the speed by at least 30%. By the time we could rest after noon, we had walked nearly twenty miles at least.

It was inevitable that some people would complain. After a few thorny heads were whipped several times by the officer in charge of escorting them, everything fell silent.

The weather today is not very good. It is overcast and overcast. Not only is the air pressure a bit low, it is also very hot and muggy. There were more and more dark clouds overhead, and a heavy rain was about to hit.

"Reporting to your lord, there is an abandoned temple about seven or eight miles ahead. Other than that, there is no other tile to block it." The official responsible for exploring the road ahead drove his horse back to report.

"Then hurry up. If you don't want to get caught in the rain, speed up!" Xiao Jinren raised his eyes and took a look, and a raindrop as big as a bean fell directly on his forehead.

Then more and more scattered raindrops hit the ground.

The exile team, which was originally loose and wanted to rest in place, was activated with all its potential almost instantly. Without waiting for the escorting officials to raise their voices to urge them, they all started running straight towards the abandoned temple seven or eight miles away.

Although Xu Yixuan had been on guard for a long time, she had used bamboo poles to prop up an awning on the flatbed truck to block the scorching sun above her head. Later, she got some second-hand felt sheets from a grocery store in Changping County, but in the end, it was just to protect the flatbed truck from being sunk. Just wet from the heavy rain. So when I noticed it was raining, I thought about asking Mrs. Tao Wang and Aunt Fang who were walking aside to quickly climb onto the flatbed truck.

Then... naturally he kicked off his legs and tried to push forward.

It's a pity that ideals are full, but reality... It's a pity: no matter how tough Xu Yixuan is, she can't withstand the so-called official speed limit of 20 horses.

Driving a car on a sunny day was just fine, but at most it was just yellow sand floating in the sky, and the ground was full of potholes, with a few small holes in the big potholes. This rain didn't last long, and all these big and small pits turned into puddles.

Even if Xu Yixuan is very careful, she will inevitably fall into it. Seeing this, Mrs. Tao Wang and Aunt Fang quickly put the bamboo-backed baskets on their backs on the flatbed truck, and then helped Xu Yixuan push them together.

He hurriedly and slowly arrived at the abandoned temple before the rain became heavier again and he was completely drenched.

From a distance just now, I didn't feel that this dilapidated temple was very big. When I got closer, I realized that the area was not small. In addition to a large courtyard in the front yard and two wing rooms on the left and right sides, there is also an auxiliary hall behind the main hall and a row of wing rooms for resting.

Even though most of the buildings are in dilapidated condition, they can at least provide shelter from wind and rain.

The families who were at the front of the team immediately occupied the four wing rooms in the front yard. As for the main hall and the wing rooms in the back yard, they obviously had to be given over to Xiao Jinren and the officers responsible for escorting them. No one dared to occupy them first. .

But who would have thought that there are still indigenous people in this dilapidated temple. Just as Xiao Jinren walked straight towards the main hall with an umbrella held by his confidants, the ajar door was opened, and a sharp scream suddenly sounded.

"Ahhh..." Then a black figure with disheveled hair and ragged clothes rushed out of the main hall. After seeing the black figure clearly, and the dirty and stubbled face with white patches, everyone present almost panicked and dispersed one after another. Even if it was raining heavily, they were unwilling to stand there. Stay in this temple courtyard.

"Crazy white man! This man is crazy white man!" Someone in the crowd raised the volume and screamed.

White madness! It is a contagious disease with a high fatality rate.

Even if it was Xiao Jinren, he thought that his expression had changed. He raised the knife and killed the person directly.

"That..." A confidant at the bottom swallowed secretly, then bit the bullet and quickly signaled a few officials around him to move the thing away quickly. The most important thing was to find a place to burn it.

It's a pity that the prestige is not enough. Or maybe the officials around him were more concerned about their lives. The officials refused and couldn't stand the nearly 1,000 exiled criminals present. They randomly selected two unlucky people, then removed them and dug a deep hole to bury them.

Xiao Jinren's face was gloomier than the dark clouds above her head. The old man who had treated Sister Qi before stood up, raised his hands and said to Xiao Jinren: "Sir, this room needs lime and other materials."

Lime or something, it's raining heavily, and it's in the wilderness, where can I find it? This is not a joke.

"In that case, you all can think of your own ideas!" After saying that, Xiao Jinren went back to the carriage.

"Brothers and sisters, what should we do?" Mrs. Tao Wang wiped her face with her sleeves. She thought she could find a piece of land, but she didn't expect such bad luck.

Xu Yixuan looked around, pointed to a corner, and then said: "How about setting up a temporary shed over there?"

Xu Yixuan's words just fell. The family who had been walking with Xu Yixuan and others these days obviously heard it, so they came up and said with a smile: "Second grandma, if you are not an old woman, can you share the glory together?"
