Chapter 46: Kindness

"Pucao, I really want to know, what is your experience of squatting in the thatched house waiting for paper? Are you hesitant, disappointed, anxious, embarrassed? As soon as the mission of the Yu Kingdom told Su Zizhong that they wanted to rest for a while, Su Zizhong communicated with the cathars sent by Xuehan City in slang, and the whole team found a leeward place and stopped.

Su Zizhong was quite interested in Pucao's experience of waiting for paper in a thatched house.

"Don't you bother to try." Pu Cao was too lazy to answer Su Zizhong, and Pu Cao regretted telling Su Zizhong the truth about the matter.

Pu Cao found a place far away from Su Zizhong, so as not to worry about it, and the twisted chief behind him pulled a long mist with his pace.

The deeper you go, the more the role of the Twisted Chieftain becomes apparent. This knife was originally made of cold meteoric iron, and in the ice and snow of the Great Snow Mountain, the knife communicates with the cold air in the heaven and earth, almost forming a faint ice mist visible to the naked eye, and it is like a herald's fireworks flag when it moves slightly.

Pucao didn't want to think back to half an hour in the thatched house.

Xuehan City, the thatched house of the welcome building.

Pu Cao happily solved the problem in her stomach, and took advantage of no one to properly check the position where she was kicked by Princess Lingzi.

A little setback is the only way to grow! Men, you have to stand the test!

Recalling the softness of that moment, it feels so good.

I didn't think it just now, but now there is a stream of blood rushing to the top of Pucao's brain, and a certain injured part is gradually getting bigger and harder.

Pay attention to the occasion, this is a thatched house, okay! If you have an opinion, go back to the room and mention it again!

Pucao's hands were dry, trying to distract him.

It's over, what about the flax paper I brought with me when I went out?

The leather robe that Pu Cao wears has no pockets, and I remember to go out with the paper in my hand, so I can only wait in desperation to see if there are any acquaintances who ask for some paper.

The thatched hut in the Great Snow Mountain is open in the house, and the two squatting pits are connected, and you can see who is in and out of it.

The squatting pit next door to the iron-beaten cattail grass flowing water.

There is a good envoy who is old, Xu is to eat the cold food of the snow mountain to make trouble, back and forth four or five times, every time I come to see Pucao squatting here with a face, see Pucao looks like an inland person, kindly persuaded: "Child, you can't pull it out and you can't scratch your face!" ”

Pucao almost crashed headlong into the wall.

It was easy to come to a burger whom Pucao knew, and cheekily asked the burger to help him get some paper, saying that it was pitiful to see an old man of the Harmony Mission who couldn't stop, and he couldn't help himself, so he could only donate a few pieces of soft linen paper.

Come in with your legs between your legs and go out with your hands on the wall. There was no way, squatting for half an hour, Pucao's feet were already numb, and every step felt like stepping on the needle carpet.

Zhu Youzhi caught up from the rear of the mission, first said a few words to Su Zizhong, and then turned his horse to Pu Cao's side, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Can you help me get some paper?" ”

Pu Cao held the twisted chief in his hand, "Come on, come on, no paper, no knife, I promise to dig you clean." ”

Zhu Youzhi saw Pu Cao's black face, "What are you angry about, I'll go to Snow Eagle City at night, I just told Brother Su, after handing over the errand, let's go to the Sleeping Moon Pavilion to soak in the hot springs and drink, I will cover all the expenses, you don't want to go." ”

"It's a fool not to go!"

Great Snow Mountain, Snow Temple.

Huang Yi just talked about the preparations for the Snow Festival, which is basically ready, but the selection of the elders who will receive the sacrifice still needs to be discussed.

In the past ten years, Zhao Lanxiu has led the sacrifice, and the elders in the sect have the highest generation and the most prestige, and there is basically no dispute that he will receive the sacrifice.

It's just that Zhao Lanxiu's health is getting worse and worse this year, climbing on a high platform of dozens of feet to sing and dance, and using true qi to amplify the sound so that hundreds of thousands of people can hear it, which is really difficult for him.

You can't let Zhao Lanxiu give her life on the high platform.

The twelve elders of the Snow God Sect, except for Zhao Lanxiu and Huang Yi, the other ten elders were basically divided into several factions.

Elder Cao, Elder Qiu, Elder Yan, and Elder Bai were the closest, and the most important military and commercial affairs in the sect were firmly grasped by these people.

Elder Zhong, Elder Nie, Elder Li, and Elder Pei had a close relationship in private, controlling the specific affairs of the sect, Elder Cao and his faction were outside, and Elder Zhong was inside, infiltrating and restraining each other, all thinking of finding a suitable opportunity to overwhelm the west wind.

As for He Weifeng and another Elder Bai, who was seven or eight years younger than Zhao Lanxiu, they stood firmly on Ding Yi's side.

Being able to serve as an elder and ascend to a high platform under the attention of hundreds of thousands of believers to express their worship to the Snow God on behalf of the people of the Snow Mountain is a symbol of identity and an affirmation of the contribution of the Snow God Sect.

Therefore, Zhao Lanxiu can't go, and whoever goes is a matter worth fighting for.

"In terms of qualifications and merits, Elder Cao deserves it, and I suggest that Elder Cao receive the sacrifice this year, which must be the most suitable." Elder Qiu Sheng took the lead in expressing his position.

Qiu Sheng is Qiu Xing's elder brother, don't look at Ying Xuan killing his younger brother in Snow Eagle City, but Qiu Sheng and Elder Zhong's faction are still silent in the sect, and they haven't said a word, let alone ask Ding Yi for an explanation.

For some things that have clear facts and conclusive evidence that harm the interests of the Snow God Sect, whoever comes out will be attacked, and who here is not an old treacherous and cunning person.

The second prince of Longguo is right, as long as his life is still there, his hands and feet will eventually grow, and he will endure it for a while, and he will wait for the day when the clouds and rain will come.

If he boldly stood up, Ding Yi really had to come up with some evidence, but he would really be ruined.

Therefore, the heads of the Snow Eagle City were rolling, and the people in the Snow God Temple pretended not to see it.

"Elder Cao has worked hard all these years and worked hard for the Holy Sect, and everyone can see all the efforts he has made for the Holy Sect. It is said that it is not impossible for Elder Cao to receive the sacrifice, but the death of the Holy Son Cao Kui has not yet been investigated, and it may be impossible to say whether there are some other secrets involved for the time being. Compared to Elder Cao, I think it is more suitable to choose Elder Zhong. Seeing the statement of Elder Cao's faction, Elder Pei naturally wanted to stand up and refute it.

The tricks in Snow Eagle City can't be taken out and said on the bright side, Cao Kui's death is the best reason, and Elder Zhong's faction will naturally not let it go.

As usual, as long as interests are involved, the Snow Temple will fall into an endless cycle of mutual attacks and cynicism.

Ding Yi waited for them to be almost noisy, and then he spoke up, "Elder Huang has been preparing for the Snow Festival in Xixue City recently, and he often visits Elder Zhao, I don't know how Elder Zhao is doing?" ”

"It's worse than in the mountains, a few days when I went to visit, Elder Zhao was mostly in bed, even if he walked a few steps, he already needed the support of the children of the family. As much as I hate to guess at the worst, it doesn't look like it's going to last long. "Huang Yi has been spending a lot of time in Xi Snow City recently, and he told Ding Yi about Elder Zhao's situation.

Ding Yi sighed, "Elder Zhao loves Yun'er the most, I still thought that Elder Zhao's body would allow it, and I also wanted to ask Elder Zhao to marry Yun'er, hey." Did Elder Zhao tell Elder Huang about the selection of this year's sacrifice? ”

Elder Zhao has a good reputation for dealing with people in the sect, and no one can find fault with him, but whenever there is an indecision in the sect, Elder Zhao is like a needle that fixes the sea, helping several sect leaders to solve their worries and difficulties. If he returned to the embrace of the Snow God, it would indeed be a great loss for the Snow God Sect.

Speaking of Elder Zhao, there was silence in the Snow God Temple.

Huang Yi then said, "Elder Zhao actually told me that he is powerless even if he wants to receive the sacrifice again. As for the candidate, Elder Zhao's original words were like this, it would be better if the elders could reach a consensus, if they couldn't reach a consensus, the high priest asked for his opinion again, and he recommended Elder Bai, in his opinion, Elder Bai was the most suitable person. It's just that Elder Zhao also said that Bai Changlao is not young, and he usually studies the doctrine quietly, and if he is willing to take on this burden, he will ask the high priest to ask Elder Bai's opinion. ”

Ding Yi originally wanted to be sacrificed by Elder Bai, but Elder Bai's temperament was weak, and none of the candidates suggested by Elder Cao's faction and Elder Zhong's faction recommended Elder Bai, so he decided that Elder Bai would not look good on his face, even if he was about to go to see the Snow God, Elder Zhao's mind was still bright, and he was worthy of being the pillar stone of the sect.

Elder Bai stood up and bowed his hands, "Originally, I would never dare to compare with all the younger elders who have made greater contributions, but since Elder Zhao has a wish, I dare not resign." ”

Seeing that there was no longer any controversy, Ding Yi finally made a decision, "Then it's hard for Elder Bai." ”

"Brothers, let's go, let go and play, the money is enough." Far away from the Sleeping Moon Pavilion, I heard Zhu Youzhi's voice.

I can't help but be unhappy, when I came to the Sleeping Moon Pavilion before, I secretly asked my mother to stuff a few silver tickets, but this time when he went out, his father was unprecedentedly generous, and specially gave him money to take Su Zizhong and a few little brothers to have a good time in Snow Eagle City.

In the Great Snow Mountain, sleeping flowers and willows have never been a big deal.

Pu Cao was sullen, and just sent the mission to the embassy in Snow Eagle City, Princess Ling Zi happened to look at him when she got out of the car, and she couldn't wait to use her eyes to dismantle Pu Cao.

"Yo, isn't this Lord Zhu Shaobao, but I haven't been here for some days. Men are ruthless ghosts, and they are happy on the big meadow, but they can lose a few pounds of weight in our family. Zhu Youzhi's loud voice shook the sky, and Liuniang just assigned a few small people to hang snow lanterns at the entrance of the pavilion, and the Snow Festival was coming, and when the snowflake-shaped lanterns were hung up in pieces, the pavilion looked like it could add a lot of color.

Seeing that Zhu Youzhi was coming, Liuniang hurriedly trotted a few steps to meet her.

"I said why did the snow sparrow call this morning, it turned out that several young castle masters were here, and the Sleeping Moon Pavilion was really full of brilliance." Liu Niang turned her head and called the little girl hanging the lantern to come over, "Go and clean up the courtyard of Lord Zhu Shaobao, and arrange a few elegant courtyards, so that the best Qing sister in the pavilion can prepare to serve a few sons." ”

Su Zizhong and several other people have been here before, but they are strictly controlled at home, and they only look for Qing people to play the piano and sing songs in the pavilion, which is not as open as Zhu Youzhi. It's just that there is an inland black boy with Su Zizhong who is very good-eyed, and he can't figure out the details for a while, so he can't be too attentive, and he can't be too cold, so he arranged all the Qingqi people and only vacated Zhu Youzhi's second-class courtyard.

Zhu Youzhi saw that Liuniang was very good at coming to things, and he also felt very face-saving, after all, he was a frequent visitor to the Mianyue Pavilion, and he stepped forward at the moment, and the master made a pie, "Brothers, go to the hot springs first, I will let Xia Hewen have good wine, and if you don't get drunk tonight, you won't return." ”

Liuniang came to Zhu Youzhi's side, "The young castle master often comes, I don't need to say anything, but this time I will be a little careful, and Ding Shouhua will be in the fifth courtyard of the first class." ”

Zhu Youzhi didn't react for a while, "How could the flower keeper come here." ”

"Shhhh It's not for Cao Shengzi's business, I've been here for a while, don't ask too much, just be careful. Liu Niang hurriedly pulled the sleeves of Zhu Youzhi's leather robe, "I don't worry about my subordinates, you are here, I have to keep an eye on it myself." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll tell them, you go and do your own business." Of course Zhu Youzhi knew Ding Yang, he had been in a hurry during this time, and he didn't get the news that Ding Yang had left the mountain, since Ding Yang was in the Sleeping Moon Pavilion, it was necessary to talk to Su Zizhong in advance, after all, Ding Yang was Ding Xueyun's uncle.

Su Zizhong heard Zhu Youzhi say that Ding Yang was also taken aback here, for Ding Xueyun's uncle, Su Zizhong must be much more familiar with other people in the Great Snow Mountain, and it is not an iron law of the Snow God Sect to guard the flowers and keep flowers without exterminating the religion, and Uncle Ding, who is dedicated to practicing and never being a good woman, is very intriguing here.

Could it be that something great happened to the Snow God Sect?

Since he is guessing, it is better to ask for an understanding, Su Zizhong no longer hesitated, pulled up the grass and washed off the snow and dust on his body first, and planned to change into clean clothes and bring a few friends to Ding Yang to say goodbye.

"Ying'er, come here, the snacks in my house have been put for a long time, and it's a pity to throw them away, you go with me to pick up the bag and send it to the beggar's nest on the east side of the pavilion." Liu Niang twisted her waist, which was no longer slender, and called the little maid who took care of the flowers and plants.

"Okay, Liuniang is really kind-hearted, and the snow god will definitely bless Liuniang." Ying'er was very skillful, and she lifted her skirt and followed Liuniang into the house.
