Hua Feng hesitated, holding the note in his hand, but his feet were still not moving.
"Don't you tell me what it is?" Shangguan Jinnian asked.
Hua Fei was embarrassed, but she didn't want him to notice his embarrassment, so she simply took a step and walked to his side.
The mist of water vapor made her a little drowsy and sleepy. She yawned unconsciously, and the flesh and body of the mature male in front of her was even more blurry and ambiguous.
She took out the note and handed it to him from behind. Although she tried her best to cover it up, her fingers still trembled a little. If it weren't for the sound of water, her nervous breathing would be very obvious.
"I can't see it." Shangguan Jinnian said, signaling her to get closer.
Hua Fan realized that he was wet and had no spare hands to get the notes.
Hua Feng became even hesitant. With a trembling hand, he almost dropped the note into the water.
"Get closer, I can't see..." His voice seemed to be carrying a hook, captivating.
Hua rolled her eyes as big as a copper bell. Given that Shangguan Jinnian was naked, the distance between them must not be closer.
She was stunned when she suddenly felt her wrist tightening, and her body was pulled forward by a powerful force, and her body suddenly touched her back, which was covered with water.
Hua Feng was so scared that he hurriedly hid back, but his wrist seemed to be stuck in a stone. No matter how he used brute force, he would not move.
He was so close to the red-body and naked body, through his wet clothes, she could clearly feel the tight lines of his muscles. The clean smell on his body was very pleasant, not the smell of spices or incense, but very pleasant.
"Um... don't move, I can't even see clearly." Shangguan Jinnian pinched her wrist and pulled it forward again. Hua Feng was weightless and almost fell into the wooden barrel.
She couldn't help but exclaim! She didn't care about those four words, turned around and ran away, but she ran away again? Now it was not just his wrist, but his entire arm was firmly controlled by him. It was harder to get out of here than climbing the sky.
"Oh, these four words..." Shangguan Jinnian pretended to be deep.
Hua Fei was stunned and temporarily forgot her embarrassing situation. "What is this? It's like a ghost-drawing talisman." She asked.
Shangguan chuckled, "This is not a ghost painting talisman, it is the stars, Ji, Bi, Yi, and Zhen, which are the four constellations in the sky."
Hua Fan was suspicious, why did the battle report not have a formation, a main general, or even a terrain, but he wrote the names of four stars? Did the mysterious guy who passed the battle report to him misplaced the note?
But from his usual carefulness and caution, it seems unlikely to put something wrong.
She was puzzled, but what was even more confused was Shangguan Jinnian. He took the note from Huafan's hand, looked over and over again several times, and asked: "Why is Azhen suddenly interested in the stars? What are these things done? Could it be that the river and city are evil, and Azhen has also begun to follow the customs?"
Hua Fan smiled awkwardly and replied in accordance with his words: "Yes, this is because this place advocates Feng Shui and witchcraft. I have nothing to do, so I think about it."
Shangguan Jinnian smiled. He felt that the flowers seemed to be in a very good mood in the past two days. He was catching birds and thinking about the astronomical phenomena, which made him very pleased. He felt that her happiness was much more precious than taking over the next city.
"The four stars are related to the weather. When they are obvious in the sky, the weather will become less rainy and drought during this period. On the contrary, if there is no shadow of these four stars in the night sky, it means that the rain is abundant during this period." Shangguan Jinnian explained to her patiently.
"Oh..." Hua Fan agreed vaguely, but if she didn't understand what it would have to do with the war.
Shangguan Jinnian looked at her confused look and thought she didn't understand what she said.
"In fact, there is a legend about these four stars." Shangguan Jinnian said, "When the legendary four stars and the moon appear in the night sky at the same time, it means that this place will encounter a once-in-a-century drought weather, and the weather is dry. If it happens to be summer, then the place will be scorching sun and extremely hot all summer, and even the trees and houses will burn themselves."
Hua Fan listened attentively. Unfortunately, it was summer now. Could this legendary celestial phenomenon happen at this time? An inexplicable sense of fear surged in her heart. Dryness and fire coincided with her own superpowers. Is this battle report hinting at something?
Shangguan did not notice her horror and continued to tell the story, "So in the past, when the common people saw these four constellations appear on summer nights, they would rush to harvest the wheat in the field. Even if the wheat was not fully ripe, they could not be delayed, because these four stars are signs of [bad fire]. If they are not harvested, they may burn themselves because of the dry weather. At that time, the hard work of a year would probably be burned."
"In other words, this kind of weather makes it easy to catch fire?" Hua Feng suppressed the strong uneasiness in his heart and asked as if nothing had happened.
"Well, you can say that..." Shangguan Jinnian said.
Hua Fan suddenly understood something. She seemed to understand the meaning of the battle report a little bit, but she was not sure and could not believe it.
She suddenly lowered her head, and then she realized that her entire sleeve was wet. Shangguan Jinnian's black hair was like a waterfall, and her wet hair was like a lingering water grass, wrapped around her arms. His eyes with water vapor were extremely gentle, but extremely ambiguous, looking at her, as if she was a child.
He was immersed in old memories. He thought she was like she was when she was a child, and began to look forward to the stories he shared again.
But her voice became colder again. While he was unprepared, she pulled her arm back.
"I'll go back first." She said, before he could turn around, she had already walked out of the door quickly. Only the note with four words was left, which was wet with water mist, like a mess of memories being trampled on.
----------
Hua Feng walked out of the room and hurried out. The palace guards saw her so urgently, and no one dared to stop her. A bad premonition arose in her heart, but she was not sure, so she must go and verify tonight!
After walking far away, she suddenly stopped and almost subconsciously, she raised her head.
Above the black sky as pure as burnt ink, a bright moon is in the sky. The bright moon is big and round, sprinkling silver light for thousands of miles, making the entire Jiangyucheng bright like daytime!
However, what is strange is that such a bright moon is not alone. Next to the moon are four stars shining red, like four strange eyes with blood, overlooking Jiangyucheng, which is like an isolated island.
