91. The convoy is on the road
That night, Liu Yi and the barbarian discussed these matters together. The Barbarian came up with a good solution, which was to get out of the Freljord Ice Field and go to a place with a signal. As long as there is a signal, it is not a problem to transmit to the earth to buy things.
The Freljord Ice Sheet is the northernmost part of the Valoran continent, and to get out of it, you have to cross the Iron Ridge Mountains. The Iron Ridge Mountains are covered in biting ice all year round, with cooler temperatures than Freljord, and the climate is even harsher. Whether it's going to the War College in the middle of the continent, Noxus in the east, Bandel City in the southeast, and Shurima Desert in the south, crossing the Iron Ridge Mountains is a must.
If Liu Yi wanted to come to a place with abundant signals in the shortest possible time, or buy the fruits and vegetables, spices, daily necessities and other things he needed, he had to cross the Iron Ridge Mountains and go to the nearest plain - the city of Piltover.
Originally, the ideal place to go was the War College, where there were not only the barbarian's wife Ash and Jean Nu Sana, but also a group of good friends of the barbarian, but the war college was a long way away after all. This time the incident was urgent, so I had to choose a closer location.
*************
Outside the cave, the sky was full of snowflakes, and the north wind roared. Cui Chunlei, Xue Lian, two women are cooking on a fire in the kitchen, in the mud stove, the flames are raging, and the material for burning the fire is the dung of wild monsters, which is the same as cow dung on the earth, burning very vigorously and with sufficient firepower. Monster meat and feces are regularly delivered by the barbarian tribesmen. Without the help of the barbarians, the workers would not have been able to provide food.
Liu Yi was grateful to the barbarian king as a good brother in his heart. He just gave the perfumes, clothes and other daily necessities on the earth, some very ordinary things to the barbarian king, and asked the barbarian king's wife Ash to sell them, but he didn't want the barbarian king to invest so much manpower for Liu Yi's mining career, and the good things helped to the end.
Since Liu Yi first came to this world, the barbarian king has never left him. If there is any problem, the barbarian king will help him solve it as soon as possible. It is enough to have a confidant in life!
Li Xuehui sticks to Liu Yi every day, almost inseparable, and even pays attention to the company when she goes to the toilet. Liu Yi had already told her everything she wanted to know. originally wanted to send her back to Earth, but due to the signal interruption, Li Xuehui couldn't go back for the time being. He could only follow Liu Yi to Piltover.
Without further ado, it is necessary to go right away.
On this long journey, the barbarian king took the initiative to lead the way, accompanied by two experienced young men from the tribe who were familiar with the terrain.
Early the next morning, the five of them set out on the road of wind and snow. Their mounts were one-horned rhinoceros, one for each of the barbarians and the two clansmen, and one for Liu Yi and Li Xuehui.
The wind and snow are pervasive, but the remnants are reckless. Mountain dance silver snake, original Chi wax elephant.
Li Xuehui was dressed in thick wool and wrapped like a baby. She rode on the back of a tall rhinoceros, her heart beat faster, hugged Liu Yi's waist tightly, put a pretty face on Liu Yi's back, and whispered: "Liu Yi, I'm a little afraid..."
"It's okay, wife, just take it as a trip. I'll protect you, don't worry. ”
The barbarian jumped on the spot, stepped on the mount with a 'bang', and said with a hearty smile: "In addition to Brother Liu, there are three of us here, and four strong men protect you, it should be no problem." ”
"Hahaha!" everyone laughed happily.
Li Xuehui's face turned red and hugged Liu Yi tighter.
Their mounts were hung with cloth bags, tents and food, mostly meat, which did not perish because of the low temperatures, and some materials for making fires, such as flint and steel, dry wood, etc. Everything is ready, and the convoy is ready to go.
The only people who saw them off were Fat Pig and Zhao Tiezhu, the workers were mining, and the two women were also busy in the kitchen. Liu Yi didn't want to alarm too many people, so he kept a low profile. In fact, he did not want the workers to know about his departure, he was here, it was an invisible deterrent, and as soon as he left, this deterrent decreased or disappeared. Because he is everyone's boss and the owner of money, everyone is used to looking at people's faces and doing things, and when the boss is not there, who will work hard and seriously.
"Jingle ......"
The bell on the neck of the one-horned rhinoceros rang, the clear sound was faint, and the group went on the road facing the wind and snow.
The vast snowfield, the white world, and the appearance of silver glaciers from time to time, like tall mirrors, shining with silver light, are such a beautiful picture.
"It's beautiful!"
Li Xuehui hugged Liu Yi and said with emotion from the bottom of her heart.
Four one-horned rhinoceros, through the wind and snow, came to a glacier, the snowflakes are no longer fluttering, the eyes are full of huge glass-like tall and crystalline, transparent ice, standing next to it can see their own appearance, looking in the mirror like magic. From time to time, groups of purple butterflies fly by with brilliant brilliance, like fireflies in the night sky, which makes people dizzy. These butterflies huddle together to keep warm, and are not afraid of the cold climate. Not far away, there are some sika deer, looking forward to these strange humans, their big ruby eyes flashing, their skin is blue, there are white plum blossom patterns, it looks very eye-catching.
"It's a fairy tale. Li Xuehui said with emotion.
"It's also the first time I've seen such a magical view. Liu Yi smiled, "You didn't come in vain this time, did you?" As he spoke, he quietly kissed Li Xuehui's cold little face.
"I hate it!" Li Xuehui said shyly.
The Barbarian King stopped his mount and said to Liu Yi, "We have been walking for two hours, and we have not yet reached the Iron Ridge Mountain Range. We need to walk through this glacial cave and then walk a little more to climb the mountains. The natural environment will be even worse then. However, we are in a comfortable environment right now, so why not stop for a bite to eat and a drink or two. ”
"Good!"
So, everyone got off the rhinoceros and spread a large blanket on the ground, the blanket can block the cold of the ice, and people can sit on it to keep warm, and it feels very comfortable. Everyone sat on the ground, and Liu Yi also lay down comfortably. Breathing fresh, clean and pollution-free air, accompanied by good brothers and beauties, this should be a wonderful trip.
They took food and wine out of the sacks.
In the open space next to it, some dry wood and charcoal were placed, and the two clansmen made a fire out of flint and steel. The flames weren't big, probably because of the altitude.
However, there is no problem with hot wine and barbecue.
Liu Yi, the barbarian king, and the two clansmen drank a glass of wine and began to barbecue. The meat of the wild monster, which was rich in nutrients, made a 'shivering' sound in the flames, and the refined fat fell low on the fire, freeing up a high flame. It didn't take long for the smell of meat to come to your nose, and the smell was mouth-watering.
Grilled meat, sprinkled with salt, bright in color and delicious.
Liu Yi put a piece of meat on an iron plate and handed it to Li Xuehui.
"Thank you. Li Xuehui felt the warmth of being taken care of and smiled happily. She gently tore off a piece of steaming meat that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and put it in her mouth. When she is hungry, it is even more delicious to eat, and she usually eats meat in order to ensure her slender body and does not eat much meat, but at this time she can't help but eat happily, and her mouth is full of oil.
"Little piggy, you can really eat it. Liu Yi gently wiped the oil stains off her face and smiled lovingly.
"I hate it~" Li Xuehui said coquettishly, then picked up another piece of meat and continued to eat. A cold and beautiful world, full of laughter......
