Chapter 24 Fire and Water Are Incompatible

Mei Ga ignored him, took a package from the horse and handed it to the officer: "This is my eldest brother's clothes!"

After Mei Ga saw that the errand officials had taken it, she saluted and said, "I have worked hard, and if we meet in the future, I will be doubly grateful!"

She came to deliver the clothes after discussing with her brother, and the money was her savings for many years. Knowing that the North Sea was cold and the winter was long, he asked his sister to send a wolfskin cotton robe.

The elder brother saw his sister's thoughts and liked Master Su, and he knew that his sister wanted to marry a Han and one day return to his mother's hometown to live. But you can't say it, let alone persuade it, so let my sister do what she wants to do!

Su Wu looked at the figure of Mei Ga beating the horse far away, and felt very uncomfortable. A woman she didn't know before, when she was injured, she took good care of it, and now she is giving cotton clothes...... His tears rolled out of his eyes, and in an instant, they were frozen outside his eyes.

"Brother Su, let's go!" said the errand officer who spoke to him just now.

Su Wu's sleeves pulled down his eyes: "Thank you! Let's go!"

Another: "Brother Su, you really don't know him?"

"Do you know him?" asked Su Wu rhetorically.

He shook his head and thought that this person was what everyone called an immortal god, and he didn't even recognize it

Anyone who knows knows helps him in this way, and we can't neglect him! He introduced himself: "My name is Yu, and his name is Juwu." ”

"Okay, the remaining officer, the sentence officer, Su Wu saluted!" he saluted with his hands on his chest.

The two officials hurriedly returned the salute: "Brother Su, we are brothers now, please don't be polite!"

"Let's go, let's get on our way!"

Su Wu walked forward with a scepter in his hand, and the two officials, Qi Yu and Juwu, led the horse behind and followed. Yu Yu said to his companions: "If we go like this, we will all freeze to death, so we might as well find a way to go faster!"

"You say, how can you go fast?" asked Jugo.

"Instead of freezing the sheep to death along the way. It is better to go to the front, meet the herdsman, sell the sheep, take the silver or exchange it for something practical. How about we get 20 of them back when we get to the place?"

"This is a good way! I'm afraid that Wei Lu will know in the future, and the two of us won't be able to eat and walk around!"

"If you don't say it, I won't say it," Qi Yu pointed to Su Wu in front of him, "He won't say it!"

"That's right, so let's all get on the horse and hurry, and we'll all be here soon!"

On the third day, they passed by the bottom of the dirt slope, and found a large tent and a shepherd's house with a sheepfold, and sold twenty sheep cheaply

Bag a horse, and they all get on the horse and go.

It's a lot faster, but it's too hard. They tried to treat two horses as well as possible along the way, and on the way, even if people didn't eat, they had to give the horses good food and drink. The weather also helped, and after ten days, they finally reached their destination - the Baikal Sea.

As soon as winter enters here, it is a hundred miles, if not hundreds of miles, of uninhabited land. After the snow, it was even more bleak, full of desolation, and I couldn't see anything that could move, but fortunately, the weather was good.

They helped him choose a sunny hill to stop and eat something. Yu Yu helped Su Wu set up tents along the slope and cleaned up his living place. Juwu went to the neighborhood to find a sheep to buy.

Three days later, he had only bought back six small rams and a sack of grain. They discussed and left these and all the things they had brought with them to Su Wu.

Ju Wu said to Su Wu: "Brother Su, we will leave all these food for you, enough for you to use until next month, when the official family sends you food." ”

"Then what should you do on the way back?" Su Wu worried.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and Qi Yu said, "Brother Su, follow you, a god, and God will take care of you, we have arrived half a month early." The rest of the time, the two of us will go to the neighboring Ding Ling to see relatives and friends, there will be no difficulties!"

The bleak blue sky, the miserable white morning sun, the howling cold wind. After Su Wu stood in front of the tent and watched the two officials beat their horses away, his heart suddenly dropped to the freezing point.

Although he had anticipated and prepared for hardships and hardships, he couldn't help but shudder when he thought that he would have to face the long cold and uninhabited wilderness alone. He wrapped his robe tightly and walked into the tent.

It was warmer inside the tent than outside, but the cold wind tore the tent apart. In the past few days here, I don't feel like I have anyone to eat and live together, but now I have to face all this alone, and my heart is still scared.

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept up the tent, wrapped up the frozen ground around the tent, and hit him in the face. He threw himself at the tent and was taken to the ground without hesitation, so that the tent was not swept away.

He poked his head out of the tent and saw that the sheepfold around the branches of the trees beside him had been taken off by the wind, and the sheep were connected with ropes, and the cold frightened them screamed in the cold wind. But now he couldn't care about them, so he could only hold on to the tent. This is home here, otherwise you will freeze to death.

Half an hour later, the wind slowed down. He struggled to his feet, pounding his stiff waist, looking at the collapsed home and the frightened sheep, his mind blank.

Baa - a sheep broke the rope and ran away, which woke him up. He ran forward to grab it, it was too fast. He did not dare to chase after him, for fear that another strong wind would blow the tent away.

He muttered, "I can't be cowardly, I have to find a way to live!" They say that I am a man of God, and a man of God has a way to build a home...... Yes, do it now!

He cheered up, looked at the terrain, picked up the shovel left by the officer, and dug up under the slope. The hammer fell on the frozen ground, and a white mark was accumulated, and the tiger's mouth was shaken

I can't move a single hair on the ground when it hurts.

What to do...... Yes, fire and water are incompatible, and fire is used to deal with freezing.

Su Wu put the machete on his belt and walked into the grove behind the hill with a scepter in his hand, picked up the branches one by one, piled up a large pile along the slope, and lit the fire chain with a firechain......

And it worked. After the large pile of branches burned, a layer of frozen soil more than a foot thick on the ground opened. He struck while the iron was hot, picked up the shovel and shovel, and dried. Most of the soil here is black and yellow, and it is easy to dig after the frozen layer is gone.

Hungry, he eats something and continues to work...... When it was dark, he lit a bonfire until he dug one side of the slope into a tent-wide gap more than a foot deep.

He managed to prop up the tent in it, cut down a few tree trunks nearby and carried them back, put them on both ends of the slope wall to protect the roof of the tent, and put branches on top of it, like a house in his hometown, and pressed the top layer of soil, so that the tent house was built to protect from both wind and cold.

He brought the frozen clods of earth and pressed them in front of the tent door, drove the sheep into the tent who were shivering and bleating, threw some hay in front of them, and the hungry sheep ate them with a gulp.

In the light of the campfire, he looked at his masterpiece and was very pleased. He blocked the tent door with a piece of wood, pulled open the mattress, and lay down with his tired clothes closed.
