Chapter 2628 Prime Minister Jin is not a stepping stone
This is a rainy season, but God also took pity on their filial piety. Although there were dark clouds all the way from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the temple, it did not rain.
Just as Shi Li's wheelchair entered the temple's meditation room, heavy rain began to pour down.
The sky seemed to be covered with a black cloth, day and night, and the occasional flashes of lightning accompanied by thunder were particularly terrifying.
"Don't be afraid, sister. It's just raining."
Shi Nian looked quite good. Even though he was the one who turned pale after being frightened by the lightning, he still bravely stood in front of Shi Li and held his brother's hand.
Shi Li couldn't help laughing and reached out to touch Shi Nian's head.
"Okay, I'm not afraid as long as you guys protect me."
Having said that, such a heavy rain still makes people feel inexplicably worried.
The temple is located halfway up the mountain, which is a dangerous place in case of landslides or mudslides.
The original owner came here to pray a few years ago, but had never encountered such heavy rain. Shi Li didn't know what kind of luck she had.
Instead, the monks from the temple came over to comfort him, "Don't worry, there are several heavy rains here every year, and nothing will happen."
"Okay, thank you, Master." Shi Li nodded in agreement. Thinking that it was tiring to come all the way in a carriage, he sent his two younger brothers to the meditation room to rest.
In the past, when she came to the temple alone, she always stayed in the most secluded courtyard. This time, she brought her two younger brothers with her, so the abbot arranged a slightly larger courtyard for the three of them, but it was not as quiet as the previous small courtyard.
But Shi Li was not a picky person and would live wherever he was assigned to live.
The heavy rain lasted the entire day and only stopped in the evening. Everything was muddy and wet, but fortunately, as the monks in the temple said, nothing else happened.
Maybe I have adapted to this climate.
Shi Li sat in the Zen room, smelling the fresh and moist air, and felt more relaxed.
But there was one bad thing in ancient times. After dark, people could only sleep soundly and could not do anything else.
Although there are candles for lighting, the dim light is not suitable for doing anything, otherwise it will only hurt your eyes.
Shi Li also undressed and went to bed early, but she was not used to going to bed so early, and she couldn't fall asleep for a long time lying in bed.
I don’t know how much time had passed, but I heard a rustling sound in a daze and immediately opened my eyes alertly.
【what's the situation? 】
[Someone is trying to break in???]
[I knock! I fell asleep, and suddenly the live broadcast reminder came up, and I woke up with a somersault~]
Shi Li did not say anything at first. She held her breath and listened more carefully. The rustling sound seemed to come from the window.
Someone was outside trying to break in by prying open the window lock.
Shi Li's heart was pounding like thunder. She sat up, grabbed the teacup closest to her without hesitation, and threw it hard to the ground.
The crisp sound of porcelain was particularly harsh in the middle of the night. In an instant, the maid who was guarding outside the compartment rushed in and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Shi Li looked at the candlestick in the maid's hand, then turned to look at the window which was already silent, and just shook her head.
"I was a little thirsty just now and didn't hold the teacup steadily." Shi Li's voice was calm, but her eyes were secretly looking towards the window, using her eyes to convey information to the maid.
The maidservant had been with her since she was a child, so she immediately understood what she meant and said to Shi Li, "Miss, don't move. I'll pour you some more tea."
The maid turned around and left in a hurry. Shi Li sat on the bed alertly without moving, her eyes and ears focused on her surroundings, but she heard no more movement.
After a while, the maid came back with a cup of hot tea, "Miss, have some tea."
At the same time, he used lip language to tell Shi Li that he didn't find anything.
Shi Li breathed a sigh of relief, took the hot tea and took a sip.
The maid didn't say anything else, but silently moved a bench in from the compartment and placed it in front of Shili's couch.
"Miss, please sleep peacefully." The maid sat on the bench and blinked at Shi Li.
This means to stay with her.
Shi Li was moved, nodded, put down the teacup and lay down again.
Fortunately, nothing happened in the second half of the night.
She also fell into a sleepy state. When she woke up, it was bright outside and it was already the next morning.
Shi Li looked at the bright sunlight outside the window, feeling a little dazed, wondering if she had hallucinations at night.
She washed up and went outside in a wheelchair. The moist air was still fresh, but her eyes suddenly fell to the window.
There, on the wet and muddy ground, there were two blurry shoe prints.
The sound I heard last night was definitely not an illusion!
