Snowflakes filled the sky, and the cold wind seemed to blow into people's bones. There were more than a dozen people lying on the snow. The wounds on their bodies had solidified, and they were obviously not breathing. They died peacefully.
In a leeward place next to the small battlefield, the unkempt Li Ping looked desperate. Because of the sudden attack by the Mongolian cavalry, she finally escaped from the control of her archenemy Duan Tiande, but her stomach suddenly hurt.
The baby is about to be born.
Even if you are at home with a stable mother-in-law, giving birth to a child has to go through hell. But your child has to be born in a place like this. Is it against yourself?
You must teach your children a lesson when they grow up!
"Ah!" Li Ping couldn't help but scream out in agony.
Feeling cold, hungry, and in pain, Li Ping's consciousness gradually began to blur.
"No, I can't give up. This is Brother Xiaotian's bloodline. I want to give birth to him and inherit his legacy!" Li Ping tried to cheer herself up.
Although she is only a farmer's daughter, if she marries a chicken, she will follow the chicken, and if she marries a dog, she will follow the dog. If she cannot keep the bloodline of the Guo family, how can she have the nerve to meet the ancestors of the Guo family!
Half an hour passed, and Li Ping, who had bled a lot, turned pale, her lips were chapped, and her eyes gradually became blurry.
She was kidnapped by Duan Tiande all the way from Qiantang to Mongolia. She traveled thousands of miles and hadn't had a good meal in several months. Her body had long been depleted of nutrients. Now that she was bleeding so much, she could only feel that her strength was getting stronger and stronger.
The smaller.
"For the sake of your children, you can't give up!" Finally, Li Ping tried her best and finally...
"Wow, wow!" The child came out, but his cry was weak.
Li Ping quickly took off her clothes and wrapped the child, then bit off his umbilical cord with her mouth, leaving about six inches.
I heard the midwife in the village say that six inches is just right. If it is shorter, it will hurt the organs, and if it is longer, it will damage the muscles.
Tie a knot carefully.
After completing these actions, Li Ping lost all strength and lay in the snow, her body getting colder and colder.
"No, if I die, my son won't survive."
Li Ping tried her best to open her eyes, looked at the corpses around her, and tried to crawl over to see if there was anything to eat or drink.
"Meow~" Suddenly a slight cat meow appeared next to me.
Li Ping's heart sank. Cats in the wild are not like cats at home. Wild animals can eat people!
She turned around and saw a golden kitten that was about the size of her hand. It had a small body, small ears that twitched, and big round blue eyes staring at her.
For some reason, Li Ping looked at the little yellow cat and felt that there seemed to be inexplicable power pouring into her body. She was refreshed and even regained a lot of strength.
"Go, go, go!" Although she felt that this kitten was special, Li Ping still tried hard to drive it away.
Under normal circumstances, there must be adult beasts near the cubs. If the little yellow cat stays here, it is likely to attract big cats. And a big cat that can survive on the grassland is unlikely to be something she can resist now.
The little yellow cat was motionless.
"Meow!"
Are you my shit-sweeper?
Li Ping didn't understand, so she grabbed a snowball and threw it at it: "Get out of here, let's go!"
Miao Le was stunned and fell into deep thought.
However, seeing that something was wrong with her situation, she didn't do anything exciting and just squatted aside silently.
….
After trying several times but unable to get rid of it, Li Ping had no choice but to continue searching around for the things she needed, including broken silver, warm clothes, weapons, food, water, and she even found a gold bracelet.
After eating something and drinking some water along the way, Li Ping felt that her condition was getting better and better.
However, there are many wild animals in deserts and grasslands, and it is still winter, with heavy snow in the sky, and there will be less food. It may not be long before wild beasts come following the smell of blood.
After packing her things, she wiped off the blood on herself and her son with snow, and covered her son's crying mouth with a cloth. Li Ping slowly left, dragging a big bag, and soon found a leeward rock to stop.
With her current
I can't walk too far physically.
The other one was just after giving birth, and her lower body was constantly leaking lochia. However, the current environment did not allow her to undergo confinement, so she had to wrap it tightly with a cloth to prevent the smell of blood from emitting.
After a while, Li Ping wrapped herself and her son tightly with several pieces of clothing, and Li Ping's body gradually warmed up. After resting for a while, she loosened the cloth blocking her son's mouth and started breastfeeding.
Unfortunately, due to poor health, the baby could not get a few drops out even after sucking for a long time. Then he opened his mouth to cry, but Li Ping quickly stopped him.
She had already heard the howling of wolves just now, but she could not let her son cry.
"Meow~"
Li Ping was startled and looked up. Why was the kitten still there? Could it be that it got lost at home?
"***, come here~" Li Ping waved.
Miao Le was delighted and jumped over quickly.
Oh yeah, the lying-win cat life has begun again!
Although Li Ping was a little surprised that the kitten was really human and seemed to understand what she said, she still covered his mouth.
Late at night in the wild, making sounds may mean danger.
Miao Le:......
Mom was right, women are all liars.
Hugging the two cubs, Li Ping then fell into a deep sleep. In her sleep, she felt as if she was sleeping next to a heater, and the warm and bright light enveloped her, making her whole body warm and sunny.
It was the first time since her husband passed away that she slept so sweetly, as if she had returned to her mother's arms when she was a child.
Suddenly, as if she remembered something, Li Ping suddenly opened her eyes. The little yellow cat was lying on her son's body, sleeping soundly. She didn't care. It was so big that it couldn't crush her son.
He just carefully put his finger on the tip of his son's nose.
Fortunately, I am angry!
Li Ping took a deep breath, then stretched her body, and found that her body seemed to have recovered more than half, and even her chest was a little swollen.
After thinking about it, I woke my son up and asked him to take a few sips, and there was actually milk.
Li Ping once again looked at the little yellow cat in her arms that sipped from time to time and occasionally kicked her son with its hind legs. Li Ping was greatly surprised.
Although she has never read a book, she has heard many interesting stories told by the elders in the village.
Could this cat be the legendary auspicious beast?
Liu Bang killed the White Snake and revolted, and King Wen of Zhou Fengming called Qishan. Will his son also have great potential in the future?
After thinking about it, Li Ping quickly opened her clothes and pulled the little yellow cat to the other side, preparing to feed him some food.
Such a small one has not eaten until now, but he cannot starve to death. He will also accompany his son to build a successful career in the future.
Unexpectedly, the kitten refused to eat despite being pooped, so Li Ping had no choice but to give up.
….
Miao Le rolled his eyes. He didn't know that just after giving birth, the milk from the previous month didn't taste good and tasted fishy and weird. He wasn't interested at all.
A quarter of an hour later, after feeding her son and putting the little yellow cat on the spot, Li Ping took her son a little further and dug a hole to solve the hygiene problem for the two of them.
Then wipe the body clean with snow, then wipe it with a cloth, and then bury the two people's excrement.
In the wilderness, the smell of excrement can also attract wild animals.
Li Ping learned all this from the old hunter in the village. At this moment, she recalled everything for her son. She was not afraid of dying, but nothing could happen to her son.
After a while, both mother and son were shivering with cold, and they quickly returned to their temporary home behind the stone.
"Huh~" took a breath of air-conditioning. As soon as she entered this place, Li Ping discovered that this place was special.
It's very warm, like being next to the stove or under the warm sun in winter.
Li Ping was surprised and happy, and then she hugged her son and the little yellow cat together. Originally, she was worried about what she would do if her son caught a cold or had a fever in such a cold weather and there was no doctor at all.
it's good now!
Miao Le:..........
The situation seems a little wrong, this time the shit shoveling officer seems to be doing a little miserably.
After resting for more than an hour,
Feeling that the wind and snow were a little lighter, Li Ping recovered a little strength, packed up her things and started to set off.
In this uninhabited place, she was a woman with a child, and she could not survive for long with only this little food, so she had to find people.
It was a completely white day, and Li Ping had no idea of the direction, so she had no choice but to walk aimlessly.
If it feels like it's getting dark, just find a leeward place to hide, eat, rest, and nurse the baby.
What surprised her was that the kitten didn't eat, drink or poop. She would only give her son a kick when her little hands moved around and touched his tail, and spent most of the rest of the time sleeping.
With such a temper, if he hadn't met him, he might have been eaten by a passing wild beast.
As she walked and walked, what surprised her was that she didn't meet him again along the way, and even heard the sound of a wild beast.
About three days later, Li Ping was alarmed to find that she was almost out of food, but she hadn't seen any people.
In this world of ice and snow, nothing is useful. Do we need to eat snow?
Li Ping hesitated for a while, looking at the kitten in her arms and lost in thought.
Miao Le:???
Women are too scary!
Miao Le quickly raised his paw and pointed to the northwest.
Li Ping's eyes lit up and she set off again. Sure enough, half an hour later she saw a large tent with two small tents surrounding it.
"Is there anyone there?" Li Ping hurriedly stepped forward and shouted.
As a woman with a newborn child, she could only seek help from other people in this vast grassland and desert.
After a while, a woman came out of the tent. She was very wary, but seeing Li Ping relaxed a lot and seeing the child in her arms, she hurriedly called her in.
After a while, hot milk and meat were served.
Although Li Ping couldn't understand what they said, she could feel their kindness and could only smile at them while eating.
Smile is the best way for human beings to communicate.
After eating, the woman arranged for Li Ping to rest in the corner of the tent.
….
The entire bottom of the tent is covered with a layer of fur, which is very warm.
But Li Ping didn't sleep well that night. Firstly, she had to get up frequently to feed her baby. Secondly, she had the habit of urinating before going to bed, but she was a little embarrassed, so she had to hold it in for most of the night.
In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I climbed out of the tent, went to the leeward corner, and unbuttoned my pants. In an instant, I felt freezing cold.
Hua Hua Hua~
Finally, I feel comfortable. (Special note: no matter how cold it is, your urine will not freeze, so no need to knock!)
Then he quickly returned to the warm room and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, early in the morning.
The female herdsman was very sad because one night passed and a little lamb froze to death at home.
Afterwards, the whole family, including Li Ping, except the hostess, happily ate lamb stew together. Although only a little salt was added, it was very fragrant.
Miao Le could hardly stop eating.
However, the herdsmen were a little unhappy when they saw that their food was fed to a cat. After Li Ping gave away some broken silver, everyone instantly became happy.
Even in the grasslands, broken silver is useful.
After winter, large tribes in many places will celebrate festivals and hold markets. These scraps of silver can be used to buy good things from the large tribes: iron pots, seasonings, tea bricks, cubs of cattle and sheep, etc.
...
In winter, the herdsmen had nothing to do. They fed the cattle and sheep with the prepared grass and processed the stored furs, milk wine, meat, etc. During the remaining time, Li Ping took the opportunity to learn the herdsmen's language.
She is still a wanted criminal by the court, and it is impossible for her to return to the Song Dynasty. There is a high probability that she will stay here for a long time. If she learns here, it is necessary to integrate here.
Li Ping felt sad when she thought about it. Her husband and brother-in-law had spent their whole lives serving the Song Dynasty and resisting the Jin army. But after the Jin people said something, the Song Dynasty directly wanted their family, without giving them any chance to defend themselves.
This damn world.
A month later, Li Ping was finally able to communicate on a daily basis. She was a little surprised to find that she was learning quite quickly.
What a pity, a good material for reading.
Now that she can communicate, Li Ping helps the herdsmen with work every day besides taking care of her son: cleaning, feeding grass, skinning sheep, etc.
It is benevolent for others to entertain you, but it is shameless for you to lie still and enjoy it.
Of course, Li Ping also had her own little thoughts. While working, she was also asking for advice on how to feed these animals, what precautions should be taken, and how to skin sheep, kill sheep, etc.
She is a farmer's wife. She often kills chickens and ducks at home. She is a good hand at farm work and can learn these things very quickly.
Soon she became a member of the family because of her enthusiasm and efficiency.
Of course, the little yellow cat lies on the tent every day to stay away from the naughty children.
This family is actually very pitiful. It is said that the men were recruited by the big tribes to fight in the war. It has been a year and there is no news at all. Now only the women, old people and children are left.
The woman's name is Gergen, which seems to mean good weather.
Winter is gradually passing, and Li Ping has also learned a lot of little knowledge about living in the grassland. But maybe because she hasn't bathed for a long time, her body smells very strong, and the little yellow cat doesn't pay much attention to her now.
Every time she wanted to hug the little yellow cat, she felt that the cat's nose was twitching and he disliked her very much. Sometimes he even turned his butt towards her and clawed at the snow with his paws.
Li Ping:......
Isn’t this what the village kittens do when they bury their feces?
Finally, the heavy snow gradually melted, the grass began to sprout, and the grassland ushered in spring again.
Gergen knelt on the ground and thanked the Immortal God for his blessing.
Li Ping asked and found out that the most terrifying things in winter are two things: attacks by hungry wild beasts, and illnesses of the elderly and children.
The most ferocious of wild animals are wild wolves. They will not only snatch away sheep, but also bite other sheep in the sheepfold to death.
As for illness, for grassland people, every winter is a disaster for the elderly and children. Without medicine, a little pain may take away their lives.
After hearing Gergen's description, Li Ping remembered that nothing had happened to her and her son all winter long.
Is it really the blessing of the Immortal God?
Li Ping raised her head and looked at the top of the tent, where the little yellow cat was sitting upright. The sun was shining on him, and the golden light was dazzling. His small body seemed to have the aura of looking down at the world.
Li Ping suddenly realized.
He can bring good luck and drive away wild beasts. This is a real mythical beast.
In this grassland, he is more likely to be the king of this land!
Shaking her well-behaved son in her hand, Li Ping said happily: "Jing'er, grow up quickly, you will have many godfathers in the future!"
