748 Too Late?

Caroline and Lu Qiling became friends, and also squatted over, her face was full of helplessness, and she sighed softly: "No way, the soldiers outside are more sick, the medicinal materials have been used up, it is really a roof leak, and it is still raining outside, none of them are good." ”

Zhen Tuo said in a low voice: "This is called a house leak that happened to rain overnight. ”

Caroline blinked, "That's what it means, isn't it?" ”

Zhen Tuo chuckled and nodded.

The charcoal fire is saved, if it is only for two days, it will definitely be enough, and there will be a lot more.

Yuan Xi thought about it, kept the five-day supply, and sent the rest to the guards for his subordinates to use.

After eating some hot rice at noon, Lu Qiling also struggled to eat some, and in the afternoon, the temperature on her forehead had receded a little.

However, this did not reassure Yuan Xi at all, because although the sick crowd did not expand further, some of those who were placed together had already burned to the point of not being able to do so. If you don't get treatment quickly, your life will be in danger at any time.

"General, General." Wang De hurriedly ran in, "Some of the brothers are about to die, I want to take them on, there is a small town twenty miles ahead, and the brothers may have a little hope of being rescued." ”

"Nonsense." Yuan Xi scolded: "Such a wind and snow outside, the kind you were in Youzhou at that time?" Don't talk about the blizzard at this time, how do you go? Do you know how deep the snow is outside? ”

"General, just now I and some soldiers found a lot of snow dogs outside, wear them warmer, and you should be able to go farther with them."

"Snow dogs?" Yuan Xi was puzzled: "What kind of dog is this?" ”

"It's a dog that can run in the snow." Wang De couldn't explain clearly, so he simply said: "These snow dogs can replace war horses and are very easy to use." As long as you don't freeze to death, you should be able to get there. ”

Yuan Xi is very unoptimistic, even if he finds a substitute, he will not be frozen to death, can this ghost weather really do it? "No way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Wang De kneeling down again with a "poof", "General, they are burning badly, and there is no place to keep warm, if you drag on like this for two or three days, you will definitely die." It's better to give it a go, maybe you can get a way out. ”

"Okay, get up, your knees are soft, kneel at every turn," Yuan Xi said impatiently: "Let the soldiers pay attention, put on everything that can be worn, throw away all the things that you don't need to bring, and the weapons are too, only bring food and drink." ”

Wang De knocked his head heavily on the ground a few times, and turned to leave.

Yuan Xi was in an unusually irritable mood, he was not optimistic that these soldiers who went out on a snow dog would survive, but Wang De was right, this was their only chance to survive.

If you don't go out, you will die, and fever and cold are usually minor problems. But in this kind of place, that's a big problem. Especially when there is no way to treat it, it is especially troublesome and fatal.

Without even fighting, he lost so many elites, for a person like Yuan Xi who cherishes feathers, his heartache can be imagined.

Seeing Yuan Xi walk in with a gloomy face, all the women were silent and didn't dare to squeak.

Caroline and Aunt Liu squatted beside Lu Qiling to take care of her, while the Zhen sisters and Gongsun Baoyue hid in a quilt and looked at Yuan Xi silently.

Yuan Xi got into a quilt and beckoned to Caroline.

"Husband." Caroline was actually in a very bad mood, and even wanted to cry, after all, she was here this time, and she felt the most responsible for such a thing.

"Snow dog, do you know something? Can this thing pull people on the snow? ”

"Snow dog?" Caroline was surprised: "Of course Snow Dogs can, but there are very few Snow Dogs, how did the husband know about this?" ”

Yuan Xi told Caroline about the previous incident, and after Caroline heard it, her face suddenly turned pale, "Husband, this, although the snow dog has a great effect, but the snowstorm outside is not encountered in a hundred years, if you go out, it is useless to say that the snow dog, even if the tengu comes." ”

Yuan Xi said "um" and lay down in the quilt.

"Husband?" Caroline didn't react.

"If you don't go, you're dead, if you go, you're dead, and if you go, at least on the way to survive, it's much better than waiting for death."

Caroline was silent, no matter how ignorant she was, she still understood this truth.

yes, who wants to wait for death? Thinking of this, her eyes looked at Lu Qiling, what would she do if she was not good?

There's no medicine here.

There was a moment of silence in the room. The mood of the crowd was unusually heavy.

"General, General." There was shouting outside.

"I'll take a look." Caroline quickly got up and rushed outside.

Soon Caroline ran back, "Husband, Qiling is saved." You see what this is? ”

Yuan Xi looked at the cloth bag in her hand, frowned, and said, "Medicinal herbs? ”

"Yes, these herbs are enough to make Qiling better. I'm going to boil the herbs. Seeing Caroline happily start boiling medicine, all the women also smiled, and the solemn atmosphere generated by Lu Qiling's illness was suddenly dispersed.

Yuan Xi looked at Caroline and walked out of the room.

When I opened the courtyard door, I saw a soldier standing there shivering, jumping and jumping to drive away the cold.

"What are you doing here?"

"Ah, General." The man hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "The humble post is here waiting for the general to interrogate." ”

"Did Wang De ask you to bring it?"

"Yes, he said......."

Yuan Xi interrupted him and said lightly: "I know, remember to clean up the rest of the matter." ”

The soldier's face tightened, and he said loudly: "Yes! ”

Turn around and run.

Yuan Xi returned to the warm room and lay down on the bed again, feeling a lot more relaxed. At least Lu Qiling should be fine.

Soon the smell of Chinese medicine filled the room. Yuan Xi took a deep breath and sighed in his heart, this is a bloody medicinal material, but there is no way, some people want to live, some people are allowed to die, this is no way.

People are selfish, he will not blame Wang De, and he is not qualified to blame Wang De. Because in the end, he will do it. It's just that now Wang De has put the pot on his back. He also wanted to come and go, and he was determined to die.

Two days later, the blizzard finally became a little smaller, but it was just a hope that it would stop, "Husband, this snow will stop." Caroline was confident.

"It's amazing that this snow can fall so thickly. What's the use of stopping now, it's hard for us to get out. Yuan Xi looked out of the window, looking at the white expanse outside, and only sighed that the prairie was magical, and it could rain such a thick snow, it was like drowning the world.
