 Ji Yuan tried to sleep. The more he wanted to sleep, the more he couldn't sleep. The time was so long. Ji Yuan, who had always been optimistic, was tortured by loneliness and despair.

  "Boom......"

A huge thunder suddenly sounded, startling Ji Yuan.

Listening to thunder in this state brought Ji Yuan an unprecedented feeling, as if he were in the sky and felt the dance of thunder.

This mysterious feeling penetrated into his heart like lightning, sweeping away the fear, anxiety, depression and confusion in Ji Yuan's heart, calming his heart.

  "Hua la la......"

  It did not take long for the rain to pour down.

Ji Yuan's eyelids trembled, and he heard raindrops falling by his ears. He heard the rain hitting the ground, rocks, flowers and plants.

Time seems to slow down at this moment.

  "PATA..." "PATA..." "PATA..."

Drops of rain smashed into the leaves and the ground, transmitting a ripple.

The raindrop dripped into Jin Yuan's heart, rippling out the darkness shrouded in between. With each ripple drew an outline of the world, providing a source of information. With tens of millions of ripples, a painting took shape. The leaves, treetops, floors, rocks, houses, rubble, flowers, and weeds, and animals fleeing in the rain, the outlines of all living things appear in Ji Yuan along with the sound of rain.

The painting had no color yet it was vivid and concrete, as if Ji Yuan was touching everything on the earth with each drop of rain.

Listening to the rain falls and a painting was created from the heart.

It is an indescribable experience, Ji Yuan forgot all his irritability, even forgot to breathe, the sense of stillness. The closer the objects the more clear it was, while objects at a further distance grew hazy.

  'So I'm really still on the mountain, and I'm lying in the dilapidated house. Is it a dilapidated temple? The heavy rain came suddenly, so there were many small animals fleeing in a hurry......How beautiful! '

Although he was still unable to move and open his eyes, there was a faint smile at the edge of his mouth.

His restlessness was relieved, and the supernatural hearing left Ji Yuan wondering if he had benefited from the game.

After a short while, Ji Yuan perked up as he finally heard the sound he was most looking forward to.

  ...

In the rain, a group of people swiftly marched, carrying a large wicker basket on their back. This kind of basket resembled the kind the ancient scholars used to carry on their travels to their exams. The difference was there was a covering cloth on the scholars' basket, and this group's baskets were significantly bigger.

Ji Yuan couldn't hear their whole picture clearly as his range was limited, so he could only picture the limbs, the baskets and the covers, with the face unclear.

It was not just the large baskets that made Ji Yuan puzzled. Some wore raincoats-like coats, while others did not. In short, they did not look like any modern raincoats at all.

      "Come on, come on, let's go! There's a temple ahead!!!"

  "Watch your step, the road is slippery in the rain !"

  "Follow me, let's take shelter from the rain and we will make a fire. Hurry up! Get going!"
