Chapter 11: A Snowy Night (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection)
When Li Kuan crossed over, it was already early autumn. It's been more than two months now, and the middle of winter is coming. The weather is getting colder and colder day by day, Li Kuan is not used to the winter of the Tang Dynasty, this time is not the kind of global warming world in later generations, in this early winter season, the temperature is already terrible low.
Li Kuan tightened the quilt on his body and looked at the gray sky outside the window: "It's going to snow!" I didn't expect that this was just winter, and the snow began to fall, if it was another month, I don't know how cold it would be! "There was a fire in the house, but it could not stop the pervasive north wind, which howled by them and took away all the heat, leaving only the cold air to laugh at the shivering people around the fire.
"Damn low productivity! How is there no quilt? Li Kuan complained about this era! To know what padded jackets, down jackets, woolen sweaters in modern times, these warm clothes are endless. Where is it like now, when the brocade quilt is blown by the cold wind, it is no wonder that the poet named Cen Shen will write the poem "The fox fur is not warm and the brocade is thin".
At the time when he first crossed, Li Kuan still felt that Datang was quite good, and the autumn was crisp and cool, and it couldn't help but be hot. And instead of breathing all kinds of toxic gases every day like in modern times, I eat pure natural green vegetables and drink clear and sweet mountain spring water, instead of the tap water that has been filtered through layers. But he didn't expect that in just two months, he was deeply hurt by the Tang Dynasty that he once loved deeply.
"Cotton, this thing is made in Gaochang, which is a very small country. It seems that he was destroyed by Hou Junji, and at that time it was Zhenguan for a few years? Li Kuan thought in his mind, should he go to this small country to get a little bit first and spend this winter.
In fact, when the first cold snap hit this winter, Li Kuan regretted it, and he had already known that he would have exchanged a quilt first, who knew that this Tang Dynasty winter was so difficult! Thinking that he had replaced the remaining energy points like that two days ago really made him feel like he wanted to hit the wall.
"I have to get some coal and change the bed and quilt, otherwise Lao Tzu will freeze to death!" Thinking of this, Li Kuan got up wrapped in a brocade quilt. I was going to take the little money I had saved in the past two months, although it cost a lot to buy the medicinal materials needed to regulate my body, but I still had about half of it left. Fifteen taels of silver can buy a hundred kilograms of coal. There are ten energy points that can be absorbed, and this energy point should be able to change the bed quilt!
But just as Li Kuan stretched out his hand and picked up the box containing the silver, a thought arose in his heart: how to explain it if someone finds out. This is also a stinky problem that Li Kuan developed after coming to Datang, and he is afraid that he will be found out that he is different in everything. Because his roots are shallow now, if he is too different, he will be attributed to being different. As the old saying goes: half a step ahead of people is a genius, and one step ahead is a madman. But if Li Kuan really came out, it would not be one step ahead, but fifteen hundred years. Then he is the biggest madman of this era!
Because the front is afraid of wolves, the back is afraid of tigers. Although Li Kuan practiced boxing to recuperate his body in the past two months, he was not in a good mood, but he did not receive any obvious results. It's still the size of the sick seedling before, so when the north wind blows this time, he can't stand the birds!
"No, maybe it's an opportunity! Li Er is coming back, this may be a breakthrough! Li Kuan's mind turned around for a moment, and a flash of inspiration: 'Yes, you must buy it, you must change it!' Ha ha...... Lao Tzu is a genius! ’
"Someone! Come! Li Kuan shouted loudly, knowing that there was always someone standing by his side at any time. This is also the right of the royal children, and of course it is also sad! Because you don't know who these people are loyal to in their hearts, whether they will turn around and sell themselves!
"Shizi, is there something wrong?" Li Kuan's attendant poked her head out of the door. This is also a bad problem brought by Li Kuan from modern times, he doesn't know how his predecessor dealt with such a beautiful girl who can score eighty-five points, anyway, after he came, he directly let this so-called personal maid sleep next door, anyway, there are many empty rooms. He didn't want to be listened to if he was talking in a dream or something, at that time, this little beauty thought that Li Kuan had alienated her, and she was very sad for a while.
"Go and get me a little guy! I'm going to buy something! Li Kuan commanded.
"Shizi, I don't know what to do with the summons?" A small guy soon appeared in front of Li Kuan's eyes.
"You go buy me coal and come back! Go ahead and buy all this money for coal! Li Kuan stuffed the box in his hand into the little guy's hand and ordered.
"The little ones are going!" The little guy responded respectfully.
That afternoon, before it was dark, the little maid took two subordinates and carried two burlap bags to Li Kuan's yard.
"Carry something for me!" Li Kuan instructed after receiving the maid's message.
The two subordinates immediately carried the bag into Li Kuan's room, the little maid lived in the same room as Li Kuan, and there was a screen in the middle, and now the little maid went to sleep next door, and the room was vacant A lot of space, just piled up this coal.
"Get out, all of you! Don't bother me! Li Kuan directly gave a death order, you must know that in the past two months, because of such an order, several people have eaten the board. So now no one dares to disturb Li Kuan after he has given such an order.
"Discover low-energy carriers! Does it absorb it? "The system is really powerful, and immediately gave a hint.
"Absorb!"
"Absorb low-energy carriers - coal, one hundred kilograms. Gain 10 Power Points! ”
"Can you change a quilt with ten energy points?" Li Kuan asked directly.
"Quilt, searching...... It can be exchanged for huàn, and the productivity can be manufactured at this stage! Five points of energy for a bed. "The system gives the price.
"It seems that there is more than one bed change! If I change two beds, I can save one for myself! Li Kuan was happy now, he was worried that he could only change the bed, and if he implemented his plan, he would not be able to cover it. I didn't expect the quilt to be so cheap, I could change two beds, leave one bed to cover myself, and one bed to do what I wanted.
The sky was getting dark, and flakes of snow fell from the sky and rushed down towards the land of Guanzhong below. The howling north wind carried them throughout the Guanzhong region, turning the world into a legendary snow country overnight.
It was a rare heavy snowfall, and overnight the roof of the house had accumulated a thick layer of snow, and strings of ice cubes hung from the eaves like sharp cones. Li Kuan had a good night's sleep last night and was really comfortable. The quilt was warm on his body, and it was the most restful sleep he had since the beginning of winter.
But Li Kuan's good mood was broken because of a good night's sleep.
Because Li Li's little Lori was sick, because of the sudden heavy snowfall, the temperature dropped quickly, and Zhan Xiao Lori's health was not good, and suddenly the external evil invaded, and she fell ill!
When Li Kuan heard the news, he hurriedly felt that Li Lizhen's residence, because it was her daughter, there was no small courtyard for her to live in, only a small building of her own, and the servants and maids lived below, and the little Lori lived on the second floor. There are several other small buildings around this small building, which are for the people of Xiangcheng and Nanping. These small buildings are faintly surrounded by Li Liqin's small building, a bit of a starry and moon-like posture, which fully shows that Li Lizhen is the eldest grandson and Li Er's favorite daughter.
Li Kuan stepped on the wooden staircase, and the sound of the rustling made him very unhappy, which made him think about the cement staircase in the future!
Walking into Li Liqin's boudoir, Li Kuan felt depressed for a while, looked around, the doors and windows were closed tightly, the two stoves in the room were burning, and Li Kuan's face changed on the spot.
"Who did that stupid thing? Did you do that? Li Kuan looked at the maid who was adding charcoal to the stove, and he was directly scolded.
"Second brother, what are you scolding them for?" Little Lori heard Li Kuan's voice, stretched out her little head from the bed, and said a little weakly.
Li Kuan looked at the sickly red little Lori on his face, and the anger in his heart became even stronger, he turned around and opened the door, and then walked quickly to the window, opened the window, and the cold air turned into a strong wind, and suddenly rushed into this small room.
"Are you trying to kill Lishi? The doors and windows are closed tightly, and there is a stove! Didn't know that a stove consumes oxygen in the air? The carbon dioxide produced by combustion will be even more suffocating, get out of the way! Li Kuan looked at those maids who had long been submissive.
"Second brother, don't be angry! Liqin is so uncomfortable! Is Lizhi unable to survive? Little Lori's voice brought the angry Li Kuan back to his senses.
"No, there is the second brother here, the second brother is here, and Lizhi will definitely be fine!" Li Kuan walked quickly to the bed and reached out to hold Little Lori's little hand.
The already thin little hands are now even colder. Li Kuan held it in his hand, as if holding a piece of ice: "Lizhi, why did you fall ill?" Didn't the concubine go to the imperial doctor? Li Kuan sighed into the little hand in the palm of his hand in distress, hoping to make her feel warm.
"The mother concubine has come to see Lizhi in the morning, but the father is coming back soon, and the mother has to worry about everything in the house, and Lizhi let her go!" Little Lori looked at Li Kuan's hand and sighed, and her heart warmed: Is this my brother? Why does Big Brother never do this?
Li Kuan no longer spoke, he also knew that the eldest grandson was very busy and tired now. And because Li Er is coming back soon, the prince has stepped up the persecution of the Qin Palace, hoping to force the eldest grandson to give up some of his interests before Li Er returns to Chang'an.
For the first time, Li Kuan felt sad about his identity, he really had no relatives in heaven. Even if Li Lizhen is the favorite daughter of the eldest grandson and Li Er, she has to give in in the face of that huge interest.
