Chapter 112: Distress
"Why are the gates closed? Has it already passed the unitary time? Bai Qingshuang only felt that not only was his face blown by the wind and snow in pain, but even his back was also bursting with chills.
The gates are closed, so how are they going back? Do you want to freeze outside the city for a night? Then they will definitely turn into four icicles.
"There are still guards at the city gates, I'll call the gates!" Zhou Ming shook off the falling snow, jumped out of the carriage, and when he landed, he could already hear the rustle of the snow under his feet.
It can be seen that it is only about half an hour, how heavy the snow is, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that it is a blizzard, and it came one night earlier than Meng Guanyue and Qin Tianjian expected.
"Shuang'er, Feng'er, stay inside and don't come out, Dad and the Zhou brothers will go together!" Bai Zhihong told him to get off the carriage too.
"Daddy! Here you go! Bai Qingfeng grabbed him, took off his cloak and handed it to his father.
The boy grew up very quickly, not only did his head grow taller, his body became stronger, his face was ruddy, and even his intelligence gradually approached that of a normal person.
This made Bai Qingshuang sure once again that Bai Qingfeng was actually only slightly mentally retarded or had autism because of the negligence of his family when he was young, and he was not a child with cerebral palsy, nor was he a fool.
Bai Zhihong touched his son's head lovingly and lovingly, and did not refuse, after all, it was freezing outside, and he was a weak scholar, and he was not suitable for hypocrisy.
Following Zhou Ming to the city gate, the two raised their heads in unison and shouted: "Please open the door!" Keeper, please open the door! ”
I don't know if it's because the wind and snow are too big, no matter how they call, on the high city gate, you can only see the weak swaying of the banner in the wind and snow, and the flames shaking inside the city tower, but no one can come out at all.
"Dad, Brother Zhou, in my opinion, they are all hiding in the city tower, and they can't hear our shouts!" Bai Qingshuang, who had been waiting in the carriage for a long time, also got out of the carriage and came to their side.
The cold wind carried the flying snowflakes around the demonic dance, almost blinding people's eyes, although the carriage was not warm, but standing in the wind and snow, but couldn't help but tremble.
"Frost, why did you come down, go back to the car, it's cold outside!" Bai Zhihong turned his head to look at his daughter, and immediately asked her to go back to the carriage first, "Let's try again!" If not, then you can only go back to the academy for one night! ”
"Dad, if we can't go home tonight, my mother will be worried at home alone! There are also Aunt Zhou, Sister Wan, and Xiaodou, if they don't see Brother Zhou, they will also be worried. Bai Qingshuang shook his head and said.
"The most important thing is that this snow is getting heavier and heavier, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to go back to Wutong Academy!" Zhou Ming glanced at the white expanse behind him, the confusion that seemed to be connected between heaven and earth, I was afraid that he couldn't even recognize the southeast, northwest and northwest.
"So, we only have one way to go, and that's to go home!"
If you can't go home, you can only wait to freeze to death here!
She doesn't want to, her shop has just improved, and there are bigger ideals waiting for her to realize!
Bai Zhihong also glanced back behind him, and sure enough, as Zhou Ming said, the snow on the official road was getting thicker and thicker, and even the marks of the carriage they had just driven were quickly covered by the heavy snow.
"We must try our best to find a way to let the soldiers on the city tower find out about us, otherwise we will ......" Bai Zhihong's words were not finished, because they all knew what that otherwise the latter meant.
"It's not okay to shout, if they can hear it, they have already heard it, so they can only find another way!" Bai Qingshuang rubbed her hands, put them to her mouth and kept hazing, and walked in place to prevent her body from cooling down.
The three of them stared at what to do.
At this time, there are still two places where people are restless.
One is in the Zixiao Courtyard of the Protector's Mansion, Meng Guanyue looked at the snow outside the window, and her eyebrows furrowed tightly.
It's obviously snowing heavily tomorrow morning, why is it six hours earlier, is it really because it has something to do with her rebirth?
I don't know what her rebirth will affect, but fortunately, although there is a deviation, after all, this heavy snow is still falling, otherwise, I really can't explain it.
She did him a favor, and he must have thought of her good!
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and Meng Guanyue's smile was unclear.
Hongyan had already adapted to the change of the master, and didn't care much, so she only kept her duty and added a big piece of Dayu and said: "Miss, it's snowing and windy outside, don't be greedy for the snow scene and feel the wind cold!" ”
Meng Guanyue retracted her gaze and said, "Close the window!" ”
She is no longer the eldest lady in her previous life who only likes to enjoy flowers and scenery, dance and ink, and chant poetry.
Then there is the palace, Xu Ruixiang looked at the heavy snow flying in the sky, and he couldn't even feel at ease with dinner, and after eating half of it, he ordered: "Go and pass the six princes and the deputy of the Qintian prison into the palace!" ”
"Yes!" The emperor has a decree, that is, there are knives in the sky, and you have to endure the pain to see the driver, not to mention that it is just snowing?
The little eunuch who was specially responsible for transmitting the decree immediately went out of the palace to announce the decree in the wind and snow under Zhou Hai's instructions.
——
The carriage parked in front of the city gate had accumulated a thick layer of snow, and if it waited any longer, it was in danger of being crushed.
Bai Qingshuang, Bai Zhihong and Zhou Ming's heads and shoulders were constantly covered with snowflakes, shaking off layer after layer.
"Dad, this is not the way to go, let's try throwing snow balls on the city tower!" There is a vast white area all around, and it seems that the only thing that can be used is snow.
When Bai Zhihong and Zhou Ming heard this, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly and said, "Dad's arm strength is not good, I'm afraid I won't be able to throw it into the city tower!" ”
It is useless to be a scholar, and when physical strength and force are needed, it is really profoundly reflected.
Zhou Ming touched his head and said ashamedly: "Although I am used to rough work, but this city tower is too high, and I am not sure, why don't you try it first!" ”
Zhou Ming was not very confident in raising a snow ball on the ground, and then threw it the city tower, unfortunately, although he had the strength, the city tower was too high, and the snow ball fell down less than half of the city tower.
I tried several times in a row, but I died halfway.
"What can I do?" Bai Qingshuang bit her lower lip, looked at the city tower that needed to tilt her head to see the top of the city tower in annoyance, and secretly sneered: What are you doing with nothing to build so high? The most odious thing is that the emperor ordered to close the city gate before the war, and they were biased to close the city gate in advance when the snow fell, which is really hateful!
"Daddy! Frost! I'm cold! At this time, Bai Qingfeng, who was freezing in the car, staggered out of the car, his teeth chattered when he spoke, and his lips were pale under the reflection of the snow!
"Brother!" Bai Qingshuang was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the crumbling Bai Qingfeng, only to find that his forehead was hot, "Dad, my brother has a high fever!" ”
"Wind!" Bai Zhihong was taken aback, and secretly blamed himself for wearing his son's cloak, but forgot the child in the carriage.
Even if the temperature in the carriage was slightly warmer than outside, but at this moment, the roof of the car was full of snow, and he was alone in the carriage, without the crowded heat, didn't he have to suffer from the cold?
He hurriedly held Bai Qingfeng in his arms, warmed his son's hot and cold body with his body temperature, and said even more worriedly: "What can I do now?" The wind is burning badly, if you don't hurry into the city to see the doctor, he ......"
As soon as Bai Zhihong's words fell, suddenly there was a loud "bang" behind them, and the roof of the carriage, which could not bear the snow accumulation, actually fell apart and fell to the ground.
The horse was so frightened that it neighed wildly, and was also taken to the ground by the collapsed carriage because it was caught off guard, and it was lying on its side and struggled to get up, but it was trapped and couldn't turn over.
This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight!
Is it really heaven that is going to kill them?
Even though he is usually calm and self-controlled, thinking that he is ready to call for wind and rain in this life by relying on his own wisdom and the experience accumulated in later generations, Bai Qingshuang is just a little woman after all, and at this time, because of this series of changes, he has already frightened the six gods and panicked.
I don't know if it's because of the cold after standing in the snow for a long time, or the waves of fear that have sprung up in her heart, which makes her tremble so much, and her eyes are so white that she can barely see anything, and there is still a trace of consciousness that tells her that her body is gradually sliding down......
"Frost!"
"Sister Frost!"
The two adults shouted wildly at this time, annoyed that they were powerless, and could only scream and beat their chests.
"Who's downstairs?" Suddenly, from the high castle tower, someone poked out half of his head to look out of the city, and saw four shadows in the snow.
"Don't open the city gates yet!" Behind the guards at the city gate, a low and warm rebuke suddenly came, "The time has not yet come for the city gate to close, who told you to close the city gate?" If there is anything good or bad for the people outside the city, you will come to see it yourself! ”
"Yes! Be! Several guards who had wanted to be lazy and had closed the city gate early broke out in a cold sweat.
If it weren't for the fact that they happened to hear a roar outside the city, when they noticed something unusual and came out to check, the six princes patrolled and saw someone outside the city, their lives......
The spirits shivered again, and they did not dare to think about it, so they immediately rushed down the tower to open the gate.
Xu Jingyu stood on the high city tower and looked at the four people who looked unusually small below, as well as the collapsed carriage and the neighing of horses, his brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes under the firelight flickered brightly and dimly, obscure.
His feet moved slightly, and he was about to go down the city tower, when Yi Jue had come to his side and respectfully announced: "Master, the emperor has sent you into the palace!" ”
After a pause, Xu Jingyu retracted his gaze, looked up at the sky where goose feathers and snow were flying wantonly, and the hand hidden in the wide sleeve curled up and took a step.
Yi Jue, who was following him, also glanced down, and followed closely with a cold face without fluctuating.
On a luxury carriage inside the city gate, Xu Jingxuan watched Xu Jingxuan's carriage leave with a slight gaze, and then got down from the warm car, glanced at the few people who had staggered in from the open city gate, and then said to the stunned waiter: "Send them to the hospital!" ”
"Huh? The master ......"
A cold gaze shot over, and the waiter immediately covered his mouth and drove the carriage to pick up people...... R1152
