Chapter 155: The Wind and Snow Fall into Winter
Chapter 155 The wind and snow are coming into winter
The earth is white, and the sky is long.
When the monsoon blows from the southeast coast of the Dongtu region, blows from the sky above the Dongtu region, and meets the cold current from the Beichuan region, the first snow will fall on the huge territory of the Dongtu region, which refers to the snow day that lasts until the spring blooms.
The winter in the Eastern Earth Domain is more humid than the other four regions because of the seaside. In the middle of winter, the travel of people in Dongtu has become more and more scarce, and more people have hoarded enough dry goods and food in the warehouse to cope with the winter, and the cold weather can ensure that these materials will not become moldy and deteriorate in the underground warehouse.
Dongtu people also have a preference in winter is to freeze some autumn white pears and flower cover pears in the clay pot in front of the door, and when the snow seals the fertile land for thousands of miles, the pears are frozen into black and frozen in the naturally condensed ice in the clay pots, which they call frozen pears.
Because the East soil and the other four domains are separated by tens of millions of miles, transportation has always been a problem of communication between the East Tu people and the outside world, the circulation of goods naturally has a lot of inconvenience, many times after the autumn harvest, in addition to the fruits sold, there are often some left, in order to facilitate storage, the ancestors of the Dong Tu people thought of this method.
Frozen pear is an indispensable dessert after tea and dinner in the winter of Dongtu people. Take a frozen pear, soak it in cold water, and wait until the frozen pear is slowly penetrated to the surface surrounded by an ice shell, then you can crush the ice shell and eat it, or you can take a small bite and suck it to eat.
For some wealthy people, they can eat honey or rose syrup from the trade of the southern Xinjiang region, which is deeply loved by Dongtu women. It melts in the mouth, and the frosty and sweet taste can make the Dongtu people forget the cold for a while in the middle of winter. The people of the East are fierce, and there are also children of the martial arts family, who like to use it as a wine accompaniment, and enjoy thousands of miles of silver with friends and beauties, and talk about the wine, not very happy.
After the middle of winter, the city of innocence is also a lot quieter, the streets of Baihua Street have been paved with a thick layer of snow, and the diners are also after the middle of winter, some hearts are affected, few people set foot here again, all day long only to have fun, drunk and gold.
I don't know if these people were banned by the owners or owners of the streets, or whether they were concentrating on preparing for the martial arts conference of the eighth corridor and twenty-four streets of the innocent city after the beginning of spring, Baihua Street was much more lifeless than before in the middle of winter, just like the old tree at the entrance of the street, even if it was grotesquely evergreen, there were petals falling every day, and there would be a clean day.
There is a deathly tranquility everywhere in Baihua Street, which is occasionally heard, and at night there are people who whisper to the bleak music. Some people also heard the sound of paper-cutting relatives in Baihua Street, like the low chirping of insects and insects in summer.
Xue Ding relieved himself with a plate of frozen pears, just a pot of aged hundred flowers brew, and sat cross-legged on the peach blossom tree at the entrance of Baihua Street, watching the snowflakes falling from the sky above the city of innocence, and the petals of the hundred flowers that have not withered on Baihua Street.
The blue-haired girl who didn't know if it existed didn't wait for Xue Ding here as usual today, covering him with a thin blanket after he fell asleep drunk, although she knew that people of Xue Ding's realm would no longer be afraid of the cold.
"It's the middle of winter...... The kid at home has also been out for a few days. Xue Ding raised his wine to drink, but the shadows of the two children suddenly flashed in his groggy mind, and Jiuzun stayed on his lips for a moment and sighed.
"I didn't know that this vast snow would cover the dry bones of several people. ”
Xue Ding shook his head, and was about to put a frozen pear pickled with jujube nectar in his mouth, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a person not far from the promenade on Baihua Street, who was as drunk as himself, admiring the flowers and snow.
The man lying down is a plum, not as thick as the old peach blossom tree, but it is also growing on the cliff of the huge pit of the city of innocence, holding up a hero of Baihua Street, in the middle of winter, the heavy snow is just right, the yellow and white flowers of the plum blossom are more vibrant, growing on the branches unruly, not falling with the petals of the old peach blossom tree.
"It's a bit heroic, but it's a pity that I'm born charming and ...... a strange person"
Xue Ding hastily swept over the man, then stopped looking, took a slow frozen pear in his hand, waved his big sleeve, and a golden fruit was carried by a petal in the wind and snow, and flew from the street to the end of the street. The man was also aware of it, the corners of his mouth curled, and the smile was as unruly as the plum tree under him, like a landscape in the wind and snow.
The man made a claw with one hand, took the frozen pear pickled in the nectar of jujube flowers produced in one season in southern Xinjiang, generously sent it to his mouth and took a bite, and grabbed the wine pot next to him with the other hand, and drank it with his head.
Xue Ding smiled silently, held up a pot of warm potpourri next to him, and was about to raise his hand to send it, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong, so he took off a palm-sized purple gold gourd from his waist, threw it heroically, and gave it to the guest at the end of the street.
"When you meet a confidant in the snow, how can you not have good wine?"
The man also did not refuse, unceremoniously took the gourd and drank a big sip, and a peach blossom-like tempting flush rose on his face, and the man's face was also shocked, and he laughed and said, "Good wine!"
After thanking Xue Ding, the man sent the wine jug back, and there was another gust of flower wind on Baihua Street. It seemed that he was drunk with the scenery and the pot of wine, and the man seemed to be drowsy, and in this snowy weather, he actually fell asleep.
Xue Ding took the small purple gourd back into his waist, and only asked if it was okay for the man to sleep at this street entrance in this weather, but shook his head and sighed: "Buddha killed, even I don't dare to drink it, but today I saw the second person who can drink this thing." ”
"Good flowers, good wine, good people, wouldn't it be happy if it weren't for the eventful season?" Xue Ding glanced at the eight corridors, and instead of taking the cloud car silver lock, he chose a hidden ladder to climb down a few people, and frowned, "But I've never been drunk, and your acting skills haven't deceived me after all." ”
Xue Ding didn't even drink the last sip of Baihua Brew in the wine jug, he actually wasted a sip of good wine for the first time, and took advantage of the snowflakes to cover people's sight, rolled up a burst of petals and disappeared into the old tree at the entrance of Baihua Street.
As soon as Xue Ding moved, the sleeping person at the end of the street also moved, not even a gust of wind was alarmed, Lamei was still hanging on the branch, and the person disappeared, leaving only an empty wine pot and a pear core.
"Sure enough, I still can't blindfold you. ”
The sky was full of wind and snow, and a soft sigh sounded.
