Chapter 9: Happiness

Early in the morning, Li Po slowly opened his eyes.

The warmth on his body made him a little lazy to move.

But the chill that gradually began to invade made him quickly sober up and get up neatly.

looked at Qingchun, who was lying beside him, wrapped like a zongzi, but still trembling, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Fever, in his opinion, is not a big problem.

But in such an age, it was really easy to take a life.

But he didn't have much to do, so he could only count two of them, keep warm and full.

Fortunately, he has not been idle in the past two days, he has entered the mountain twice, and brought some wild things back, originally preparing to eat on the road, but now, he can only come to solve this urgent need.

The fire has not been extinguished, the north wind is howling outside, and the weather is freezing, but this temporary nest still retains the temperature that humans can survive.

Li Po added some firewood to make the stove more vigorous.

This is a half-collapsed house, which kitchen should be here, not because of how complete it is, but because there is a kitchen stove here.

Grabbed a clay pot with an open mouth and shook it, as well as most of the half jar of water.

The only benefit of heavy snow days is the same, it is much easier to get water.

Placing a clay pot on top of the fire, throwing in the pieces of meat that had been cut yesterday, and adding some seasoning, it is still easy to make a jar of unsatisfactory broth.

After preparing breakfast, Li Po wrapped the tattered leather robe on his body, gently pushed open the tattered door, and as soon as he lowered his head, he got out.

He was greeted by stubble of snow and a howling north wind.

Li Po shuddered, stood up straight, and spat out a breath of white air for a long time.

The eyes are full of dazzling white, and the sun hangs in the sky, but you can't feel the temperature at all.

Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, thousands of paths and people disappear, and the severe cold in the north dominates everything in heaven and earth.

Li Po didn't go around the ruins of the village again, even if the villagers left in a hurry and left some things, but when the people behind arrived here, they cleaned the place very clean.

Nothing was left but the ruins and rubbles of the land.

However, for Li Po, if he wants to survive here, it is nothing.

Li Po went straight to the river, overnight, the ice on the river has been frozen very thick, Li Po walked on the river, stomped a few feet vigorously, did not hear any strange sounds, looked at the river channel that is not wide, but it is definitely not narrow, grinned with satisfaction.

Then he returned to the river, picked up the stones that had been prepared, came to the middle of the river, lifted the heavy stones, and smashed the ice one by one.

In a short time, he had carved a small hole in the river.

The next thing is to wait, Li Po was not idle, returned to the riverbank, stretched out his fists and kicks, until his muscles and bones were stretched, and the thin sweat was slightly released, and then he walked on the ice again.

At this time, near the hewn ice cave, there were already a few frozen river fish.

Li Po smacked his mouth, obviously very satisfied with the pure natural, pollution-free, and abundant freshwater resources in the river at this time.

Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, thousands of paths and people disappear, lonely boats, fishing alone in the cold river and snow......

Can we also get into the painting? Li Po thought to himself, neatly put away the catch, and moved the stones back to the shore, and then returned to the village against the cold wind.

In fact, relying on this river, with Li Po's ability to survive, he will not worry about drinking water and food, the only thing he lacks is salt, if it is not a cold winter, he can also use some salt-rich plants or insects to replace it, but now it is not possible, between the depression of all things, this above, Li Po can not think about it.

I can only chew some cured jerky from the north from time to time, but this is obviously not a long-term solution.

And the pickiness about food also made Li Po feel unbearable gradually.

Back at the place where he stayed, Li Po shook off the ice and snow, the fire was not extinguished, the temperature was not low, and he looked at Qingchun again, the child was shrunk into a ball, still in a groggy sleep.

Li Po knew that if the high fever had not subsided after a day or two, then he was afraid that there would be another wisp of ghost in the ghost gate.

Add some wood to the fire, and the broth in the jar exudes an enticing aroma.

Looking into the clay pot, Li Po regretfully thought that this soup was a little old.

The clay pot was set aside to dry, and a few fish were thrown next to the stove, and they melted away in a short time.

Li Po held a short knife in his hand, cut the abdomen and scaled it neatly, threaded a few fish into two strings, put them on the fire, and sprinkled some seasoning from time to time, this is his meal.

When the broth in the clay pot was warm, Li Po helped Qingchun up and fed him the broth in the clay pot little by little.

Don't see a doctor, but the child's appetite is not small at all, and in a half-dream, half-awake, a can of broth entered his belly.

It wasn't until the broth ran out that Li Po put the child down.

was so busy before, and he didn't feel anything, but at this time, Li Po was sweating profusely, and scolded in his heart, this work of serving people is really not done by people.

This day of being a father and a mother, why did it fall on his Li Po's head?

Sitting next to the fire, Li Po bit the grilled fish viciously, lamenting the wonder of the world while pondering the future itinerary.

This is the early winter, the road is a little harder, but it can be endured, if you wait a little longer, let alone travel far, it may take a lot of effort to get to the river.

Fortunately, the colder the weather, the cleaner it should be......

"Don't leave Koharu behind, Koharu can do any job...... "......

The sleeping child was muttering something and his body began to toss and turn.

Li Po scratched his head, but still moved his body and sat down next to the child, who magically curled up beside his legs, as if he had found a support, and settled down again.

An inexplicable feeling of happiness rippled in Li Po's heart, and he looked down at the same as himself, dirty as a beggar's child, and the lines on Li Po's face instantly softened a lot.

"If you survive...... I hope the two of us can start and finish well......"

Undoubtedly, this child's vitality is very strong.

On the evening of this day, the high fever subsided, and Qingchun woke up completely, if he could maintain such a body temperature for another day, this life would be picked up.
