The loess layers here, eroded and deposited over millions of years, formed deep cracks and ravines, akin to the wrinkles of the earth, recording the vicissitudes of time.
The sky appeared exceptionally vast.
Occasional dark clouds drifting by hinted at the impending rain.
The rainfall distribution in Xi'an and the nearby Loess Plateau was uneven.
The summer season was the major rainy season, especially in July and August when rainfall was more concentrated, but due to the special geological structure, water was hardly absorbed and retained by the soil, often causing brief and intense downpours, which then triggered flash floods and mudslides.
It was early summer at this time.
The weather in May was unpredictable, with clear skies and dark clouds alternating.
Clearly,
it was about to rain here soon.
Chen Yun looked up at the gradually gathering dark clouds, secretly calculating how to use this natural force.
He chose a relatively open area as a temporary base.
