Chapter 351: A Chance Encounter (Part 1)
The north wind is howling and snowflakes are fluttering.
After November, heavy snow began to fall from the land north of Huzhou.
This is the first snowfall since the drought.
God seemed to be trying to make up for all the snow that had not fallen a few years ago. In just one night, the whole north was covered with a thick white coat, and even the river water turned into ice.
The rivers were frozen, so the ships naturally could not sail. Liu Feng and others who returned from Jiangzhou had to change to land. However, because the snow was too deep, it was difficult to walk by land, which greatly delayed the trip.
Although auspicious snow indicates a good harvest, Liu Feng really couldn't like this white northern scenery.
It was a little fresh at the beginning. After all, he was a southerner before traveling through time and had only seen snow on film and television. Now it is the first time he has experienced the taste of snow personally.
However, after seeing too much, I feel a little boring. Looking around, I see the vast whiteness everywhere, and there is no scenery at all.
In a carriage covered with soft animal skin, Liu Feng was lying in a warm silk quilt looking at the roof boredly. After a while, he got up and lifted the curtain. Suddenly, another cold wind gushed in, causing goose bumps to rise on his neck.
“Where have you gone now?”
It was white outside, and the carriage Liu Feng was riding in was not small, but compared with this white world, it was like a grain of sand in the desert.
Generally, people who don’t know much about terrain will easily lose their direction in this environment.
"Your Majesty, the detective cavalry has just returned and reported that we have entered the territory of Tangyuan Mansion. However, because the snow is too thick, I'm afraid it will take two days to get to Wencheng."
The Jinyiwei who was rushing the car replied.
"Are there two days left? Forget it."
Liu Feng put down the thick curtains to block the air conditioner outside, and the sound came from inside, "It's getting late, find a place to spend the night."
Although the sky outside was always drowsy, he could still roughly estimate the time. It was around 5:00 to 6:00 in the afternoon, and in a while, it would be completely dark.
However, it is not so easy to find a place to stay in the leeward area in this place where you don’t have a shop in front of the village and the shop in the back. It is not so easy to find. It was not until the sky became dark that Liu Feng and the others found a place to stay in the leeward slope.
Because of the heavy snow, after Liu Feng got ashore, he left the slow army and only brought a team of Jinyiwei, and rode a modified carriage towards the city.
Two carriages formed a semicircle behind the slope. Some Jinyiwei who arrived here first had cleaned up the snow in an open space, revealing the yellow-brown land, and a bonfire was also created on it.
The bright fire shines the surroundings brightly, and the heat emitted quickly dispels the surrounding coldness.
However, Liu Feng did not walk out of the car. Although there was a bonfire outside, it was far from comfortable as his bed. Moreover, with his current identity, he didn't need to do anything at all, just wait for food.
As the twilight became darker, the weather became colder.
Even the Jinyiwei patrolling outside could not help but retract his hands into his sleeves.
"It's so difficult to get some wild game in this bird weather. Fortunately, there is a small river nearby. Thank you two."
A sound came from far away. Not far away, Huangshan walked back with a river fish, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and two burly Jinyiwei were following him.
If these two Jinyiwei hadn't helped dig the ice just now, he wouldn't have gotten these fish.
"Everyone is a colleague, so don't be polite. If you have any questions in the future, just ask us for help."
The two said politely.
For them, the one-armed old man in front of them is a celebrity around the Lord, and making friends with him is not a bad thing. Besides, they are also greedy for the food made in yellow shirts. It is indeed delicious in the world. During this period, everyone has been greedy. Unfortunately, except for the Lord, others cannot eat these delicious foods every day.
Maybe because of hearing the movement outside, the curtain of one of the carriages was lifted, and a head was stretched out from the inside, and the big black eyes rolled around, revealing a hint of disappointment, "Old Huang, after going there for so long, are there only these fish?"
"There's no way, the ice is too thick. If these two brothers hadn't helped, there wouldn't be even these fish. You'll order dry food tonight."
Huang Shan said as he walked to the bonfire. The fresh river fish that he caught naturally had to be left for his lord to eat, so the others could only eat dry food.
Hearing that he could only eat the cold and hard dry food, Lu Yi's pretty face immediately praised and locked her head back into the carriage.
"Sister Nan, we have no good fortune today."
In the carriage, Gao Pannan was covered with a soft quilt, only one head was exposed. When he heard this, he also looked disappointed, "There is no way, it would be nice to have a hot meal in this weather."
Lu Yi's eyes turned, "I have a way, Sister Nan, please wait, I'll make you something delicious."
After saying that, she crawled out.
At this time, by the bonfire outside, Huang Shan was burning in the snow and turning into water to clear the river fish. When he saw Lu Yi coming over, he said curiously: "It's so cold outside. If you are not staying in the carriage, why are you running out for?"
"The dry food is cold and hard, I will cook it for Sister Nan to drink."
Lu Yi said as she picked up an empty iron pot next to her, walked not far away, spooned a pot of clean snow, and then put the pot on the bonfire.
"Well, I will give you one fish head and some fish bones."
Huang Shan said as the kitchen knife flashed a few times, then he divided a fish head and two fish bones, "Put it in and add a little of my unique seasoning, and the cooked it is very fresh."
"Old man Huang, thank you."
Lu Yi's eyes lit up, and her heroic eyebrows immediately bent.
At this moment, a rustling sound and the sound of rushing the train were approaching from afar. As the flames appeared, another group of people approached here, looking at the number of fires, there were still quite a few people.
"stop!"
The Jinyiwei, who was patrolling the outside world, took the lead in stopping the visiting people.
"Who are you? Do you dare to stop us? Is it because you won't be alive?"
The team that was stopped was a team of Qianjun, with about 300 people in the entire team.
"I care who you are. There is a master in the place ahead. You can take a detour."
The patrol team's Jinyiwei general flag was cold and bingbing.
"You are looking for death!"
The Qian army officer suddenly pulled out his waist knife.
"Stop~"
At this moment, a sharp voice came from behind. A white-faced man in eunuch's costume twisted his waist and walked over. He raised his hand and slapped the officer who was drawing the knife suddenly, and then wiped his hands with a silk scarf.
"My subordinates are ignorant, so I laughed at you. The Sa family is the chief minister of Daqian. After the order of the emperor, he sent the princess to marry. He also asked all the heroes of the factory guard to give him face."
