Patrol's sweetheart baby

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

In the city of Chun'an, on the surface of the Chunhe River, dozens of flying fish and dragon boats are racing to each other.

The oarsmen swung their oars fast one by one, and the oars cut through the water one by one, making circles and ripples.

The dragon boat passed under the cardamom bridge, and in the blink of an eye, it came out from under the bridge like a dragon and appeared in front of the crowd, causing the people watching along the bank to exclaim "hohohohoho". Clapping and shouting.

On the boat, the drummers and gong players were not to be outdone, the drums and gongs rang together, and the sound shook the ground.

Inspired, the oarsmen swung their oars faster one by one, and the splashed water shone bright golden in the sun.

Even the families living along the Chunhe River, and the guests upstairs in the wine shop all stretched their necks, stood upstairs and looked into the distance, and cheered for the dragon boaters on the boat as the dragon boat galloped by.

Any outsider who witnesses such a grand event will sincerely say, what a lively and wonderful dragon boat race!

Because tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, today's rehearsals are all previewed according to tomorrow's process.

Every year in Chun'an, the Dragon Boat Race has a different lottery. This year's lottery is prepared by Mr. Lu, the owner of Wangjianglou Restaurant located on the east bank of the Chun River. It is a golden bowl.

As long as the dragon boat players can take the golden bowl with colorful ribbons on the post on the river in front of Wangjiang Tower and ring the first gong hanging on it, then the first dragon boat to hit the gong will The team that belongs to wins.

The Golden Bowl also belongs to all members of the dragon boat team.

In other words, Wangjiang Tower, located on the east bank of Chunhe River, is the end point of this year's dragon boat race.

Therefore, among all the restaurants along the coast, Wangjianglou has the most guests and is the busiest.

"Here we come! The oarsmen are here! I hear the drums! The dragon boat team is coming!"

The sound of dragon boat drums spread to Wangjiang Tower, and the guests in the restaurant were all excited.

People either stood on the railings, looking at the river in the distance, or stood on the bank of the river, tiptoeing hard to see if the dragon boat team had arrived.

The sound of drums, the neat shouts of rowers came from afar, and the cheers of the people intertwined together. Xiao Zishu did not wait for the dragon boat team to arrive excitedly like other guests in the restaurant. He only felt that the surrounding voices were too loud. noisy.

Every Qingming Festival, Kyoto will also hold a dragon boat race. All the dragon boat players, drummers, and gong players are selected from the imperial army.

Xie Jinbai sat by the window, listening to the noise of the crowd around him, the corners of his lips curled up, his index finger was hooked to a small carved silver teapot, he raised his hand from time to time, raised his head and opened his mouth to catch the amber liquid poured from the teapot.

Those who didn't know it thought that he was drinking some century-old wine instead of high-quality pre-rain tea.

Xiao Zishu's frown has never been loosened since he stepped into the Wangjiang Tower.

The master is very clean, likes to be quiet, doesn't like to be noisy, and can't stand noise. All the maids and servants in the mansion are familiar with the master's temperament, so they all walk slowly, speak lightly, and never make loud noises.

Why, after arriving here in Chun'an, it seems like a completely changed person?

Ever since they entered the Wangjiang Tower, the surrounding noises have not stopped, and even he couldn't help feeling restless after listening to it for a long time. On the other hand, the master seems to be... enjoying it?

Moreover, the master doesn't like others to spoil good tea the most, doesn't he look down on those arty people who treat tea as water?

Why do you pour tea into your mouth like wine now?

"Huh? Is it raining?"

"It's raining?"

"It's raining, it's raining!"

On the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, the sky over Chun'an, which had been scorched by the sun for more than a month, finally began to rain.

The people who lived nearby ran home one after another, and those who lived far away had to go to other people's eaves or under other shops to take shelter from the rain for a while, and those who couldn't find a place to hide from the rain had to put their hands under their hands. Head down, head down and sprint.

There are also people who are still interested. They went to the street to buy oil umbrellas and came back, holding them up to continue watching.

The rain became more and more intensive, gradually becoming a pouring trend.

After all, the rehearsal was not a formal dragon boat race. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, the dragon boaters rowed their dragon boats to the shore one after another, going ashore to go to a nearby building to have a rest, and then rehearse after the torrential rain passed.

At this time, no one knew that the torrential rain would continue for several days without stopping, causing the water level of the Chizhang River to rise sharply, and countless people were displaced.

As the dragon boat riders went ashore one after another, the crowd had to disperse one after another.

The flagon in his hand was empty, Xie Jinbai hooked the teapot, twirled in the air, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a rather familiar figure in the crowd.

The corners of his lips curled up playfully, "Gongming, pay the bill."

After finishing speaking, he threw the flagon in his hand, and Xie Jinbai flew out like a swallow.

"Varied……"

A few steps away, Xiao Zishu heard something coming through the air, and instinctively reached out to catch it.

Acceptable.

Looking up, where can I see Xie Jinbai?

Bad luck!

Bad luck!

How come it hasn't rained for more than a month, and it rains when it's his turn to go out?

Still down so big.

Tang Xiaotang covered his head with his hands, and ran away with the crowd step by step.

He frowned tightly with thick eyebrows, put his hands on top of his head, and looked around, looking for a place where he could temporarily take shelter from the rain.

The rain was falling so fast that under the eaves were all the people sheltering from the rain.

Tang Xiaotang couldn't find a place to hide from the rain temporarily, but at this moment his legs were aching.

Tang Xiaotang's lips turned pale, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

I knew I should have listened to Qingluan, and went out after the injury was completely healed...

Tang Xiaotang's lips were pale, and his physical strength was gradually exhausted.

The clothes on his body were drenched by the rain, like a heavy armor pressing on him, Tang Xiaotang's steps became more and more difficult.

His legs became uncontrolled by his body, limp, and it was extremely difficult to even stand, let alone take a step.

Suddenly, his legs went limp, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

Someone supported him.

Tang Xiaotang raised her face gratefully, "Thank you—"

"why you?"

Tang Xiaotang opened her big black eyes, and stared at Xie Jinbai, who was close at hand with a blue oil umbrella, in disbelief.
