Chapter 256: There are frozen bones on the road

Zhenguan four years of bumper harvest, although not everyone can eat enough, but the starvation of people has begun to decline sharply, especially at the foot of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City, basically there will be no more people who starve to death, but there is a saying in later generations that people will not die if they do not do.

After the young gambler was driven out of the broken temple, not to mention whether his current physical condition can last until the night, if he can't find a place to stay before dark, then what awaits him must be the end of being thrown out by the patrol Wuhou, if he is frozen to death on the street, then the patrol Wuhou will throw him to the mass grave not far outside Chang'an City.

The cold wind howled, and instead of making the winter cold wind a little smaller, the wide street became more violent, and the knife-like cold wind penetrated into the young gambler's sackcloth full of holes, quickly taking away the temperature that had just accumulated on his body, and he wanted to use his trembling hands to pull the sackcloth on his body tighter, but found that the tighter he pulled, the colder his body would be.

"The weather of this dog, I knew that I wouldn't have sold the fur, I made a mistake, I made a mistake, there are still a few days before the end of the month, I really hope that his salary can be sent over soon, otherwise this winter will be difficult."

The young gambler curled up his thin body in the corner of a wall, the cold wind could not blow here, it could make the body slightly warmer, of course, this warmth was only relative, even if there was no howling of the cold wind, just the extremely low temperature around him could make him drink a pot.

"It's cold."

The young man's lips had frozen to blue and purple, and his body temperature had lost a lot, so that his body didn't even have much temperature, and if this situation continued, freezing to death would almost be his final end.

The young gambler's body began to tremble violently involuntarily, this is a subconscious act after being frozen, he felt this strong twitch from the inside of the body, and wanted to make the manic body quiet, but at this moment he found that he had lost control of his body, and the more he wanted to control, the more his body trembled.

The sight in front of him has become foggy, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed from the wide Chang'an Avenue to the warm alley of his youth, there is a teenager older than him in front of him, the bright smile makes him have a trace of warmth from the bottom of his heart, full of caring words, but also makes his whole body full of endless motivation.

"Brother, don't worry, as long as my brother is here, I will definitely not let you suffer hardship."

The young gambler has not yet come and expressed his opinion, the scenery in front of him suddenly underwent a huge change, the pouring rain will wrap the wide street tightly, the scenery in front of him is hazy and hazy by the heavy rain, the back of the elder brother is slowly disappearing in the rain curtain, no matter how the young gambler shouts, the elder brother has no intention of turning back, when he stumbles into the rain curtain, but can no longer find the figure of the brother, no matter how he howls, no matter how he howls, there is only the sound of the rainstorm hitting the ground between heaven and earth... …

After that, little by little the past appeared in front of the eyes of the young gambler, he was bullied when he was a little beggar, and was beaten and scolded by the shopkeeper when he was a young man, and finally he learned to gamble, and when he won enough money from the casino for the first time, he was ecstatic and fell into it for the first time, and there is no faster life in this world than this money.

Becoming a gambler requires a big win, but also a lot of big losses, the life of a young gambler began to revolve around the table, after winning the scenery and the local thugs to eat and drink a drunken party, after losing, he was thrown into the street by the thugs in the casino, the most miserable Qiaodong, the most luxurious restaurant, have left his figure, the future has never appeared in his mind, until one day, a brightly dressed person appeared in front of him.

Just at first sight, the young gambler recognized that this person was the brother who ruthlessly left him behind many years ago, for this person who abandoned himself, the young gambler did not think of forgiveness, but the brother came up with an apologetic face, gave money, gave a place to live, and wanted to make up for his departure that year, however, how could the young gambler who was full of scars forgive him like this, thinking that the money given by his brother was to atone for his brother's own sins, and he spent his peace of mind.

A gust of wind swept by, the scenery in front of him suddenly disappeared without a trace, there were not many pedestrians on the cold street, the feeling on his body became more and more cold, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier......

Jia Yi kept the words of the thousand cicadas in his heart, but he was not in a hurry, with the monthly portion of the ten thousand cicadas, so that even if a person does not do anything, just lying at home to eat and drink, he will definitely be able to live very freely until the time of the next month, and now he still has something to do, that is, to go back to Zhuangzi, let the glass factory start to produce a large number of glassware, the raw materials are very sufficient, Jia Yi has no worries about this, although it is impossible to make all the materials into glassware before the end of the year, But at least we need to make enough to sell a million pieces, and it's too late to hurry up.

I don't know where Wang Yanping and Cui Zhuang went, seeing that the sky is about to get dark, if they can't go out of the city before dark, then the time for producing glass products will be delayed for another day, feeling the fright brought by Li Er, Jia Yi really doesn't want to taste such a taste, if you can start a day earlier, start a day earlier.

The most lively place in Chang'an City is Dongcheng, Jia Yi also felt that Cui Zhuang and Wang Yanping should have gone to Dongshi, and the warm carriage took him slowly in the direction of Dongshi, but after walking not far, the carriage stopped.

"Stop, hurry up, we're going to get out of town before dark." Jia Yi didn't think much about it, and said casually to the coachman who was driving the carriage outside the car.

"Young Master, there's a dead man on the road."

Dead people in Datang really can't be regarded as an uncommon thing, after all, the world has just stabilized, and when the world was undecided before, I don't know how many dead people there will be every year, it's not a matter of wanting to see or not, the world is full of dead people, and it's impossible to see it.

It's just that now that the prosperous era is coming, especially in Chang'an City, the probability of seeing a dead person on the side of the road is really not high, Jia Yi poked his head out of the carriage with curiosity, although the face of the "dead man" was full of dirt, but Jia Yi still saw the appearance of this person clearly at first sight, and at the same time, he jumped off the carriage quickly and came to the side of the "dead man" to take a closer look, and found that it was so imaginary with the ten thousand cicadas, is this ten thousand wood?

Stretched out his hand and touched the neck of the "dead man", the faint heartbeat showed that the fire of his life was swaying with the wind, and it could be extinguished at any time, regardless of whether it was ten thousand trees or not, since he met on the streets of Chang'an City, Jia Yi, as the noble of the Tang Dynasty, had no reason to see death and not save him, so he immediately called the coachman to help carry him to the car, and then quickly turned around and ran in the direction of Jiafu.

Jia Yi was rescued by the young gambler, there was a charcoal brazier in the carriage, Jia Yi took off the sackcloth on the young gambler's body, and after roasting his hands on the fire, he quickly pasted it on the young gambler's body, hoping that this could bring some warmth to his cold body.

Soon the carriage returned to the door of Jia's mansion, Jia Yi immediately found someone to bring the young gambler into the guest room, the stove rose, after a while, the room became very warm, summoned four maids, began to roast the fire, while rubbing the young man's body, rubbed for half an hour, the blue and purple on the young man's body gradually turned pink, the young man's heart became strong again, and his breathing began to become smoother.

Jia Yi saw the young man lying in the thick quilt, and let out a sigh gently, the young man's dirty face was wiped by the maid again, and he had already shown his original appearance, although he looked a few years younger, but it was almost like a mold carved out of a mold with Xun Qian Cicada, Jia Yi was sure that he was the younger brother of Shi Qian Cicada, but what Jia Yi couldn't understand anyway was why Shi Qian Cicada, who had a lot of examples, why would his younger brother live so miserably.

"Go get him some hot porridge."

Thanks to the fact that Qianmu didn't stay in the cold wind for a long time, it only looked like an hour, if it was a little longer, Jia would really be a corpse when he touched it.

Jia Yi knew that Zhumen's wine and meat stinked, and there were poems about frozen bones on the road, but he had never seen what a person who froze to death would look like.

It didn't take long for Shun Qianmu to wake up, and when he noticed the unfamiliar environment around him, there was no surprise in his eyes, just like he had seen such an environment, and finally the focus of his eyes fell on Jia Yi's face.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Jia Yi, what's your name?"

"Ten Chigi."

"Well, I'm your brother Shun Qiancicada's friend, you can rest assured ......"

Jia Yi's polite words were not finished, and Xun Qianmu, who still maintained a trace of respect for Jia Yi just now, after Jia Yi said the name of Xun Qiancicada, the expression on his face suddenly became very calm, as if Jia Yi did all this for him, and even the tone of his speech changed very dramatically.

"You should be the one he found to take care of me, you are really, why didn't you come earlier, I almost froze to death, I have nothing to eat, I am dying of hunger."
