Chapter 232: Snow Disaster

The cold wind enveloped the whole city, and it wasn't until he saw the signboard on the side of the street that he hadn't had time to change it, and Su Xiao realized that it was June.

This year's weather is particularly abnormal, the keel flowers are not blooming, and it is unbelievable that it is summer but it is snowing unreasonably.

But whether it is the patriarchs or the people at the bottom, they all know one thing, if it continues like this, many people will freeze to death in the Black Iron City.

It's like the Holy Capital half a month ago.

No one expected to be wrapped in a padded jacket in June, and people were a little caught off guard by the spread of this severe cold.

Because it's even colder than last winter, and it's frighteningly cold.

Although the City Lord's Mansion has released many messages, saying that this time it is just a severe cold that occurs once in decades, and everyone should not panic, but the Black Iron City has only existed for more than thirty years.

Su Xiao walked on the road with difficulty against the strong wind, and saw a family that seemed to have not closed the door properly, swaying under the blowing of the wind, and the lights from the house also flashed and flickered, like some kind of signal.

Su Xiao shook his head, just glanced at the lights in the room and moved on.

Maybe it was an illusion, or maybe it was a psychological effect, under the illumination of that light, Su Xiao felt that his body was much warmer.

He looked at the civilians who were frozen to death on the side of the road, and sighed deeply, but he was a little helpless.

He couldn't do anything, and he couldn't save them.

The remains will probably be collected the next morning, and since they are so well preserved, they are also very valuable as fuel.

Although this has been a tradition in the Black Iron City for many years, it is still a little unaccustomed to seeing such a person who adheres to the feelings of being in the earth.

The target of Su Xiao's trip was a noble mansion.

He was commissioned by Acting President Yu Han to retrieve a precious prototype of the creation.

The so-called creation archetype is the precious prototype left in ancient times, between the universal understanding and the divine workmanship.

But because it is a broken existence, in addition to the alchemist will use it as a reference, only the nobles will use it as an ornament.

And this kind of precious prototype, although it can't be used, has a high collection value after all, so the Green Apple Academy is not worried about sending ordinary students to pick it up, for fear that something will happen.

Therefore, this errand fell on Su Xiao's head.

Su Xiao naturally understood Yu Han's intentions, she wanted to let herself go out for a walk, divert her attention, and reduce some resentment towards Qinghe, as well as her thoughts about Qiyue.

After all, the creation prototype needed for this lion was also borrowed from this nobleman through Qing He's arrangement.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Xiao finally arrived at the luxurious mansion, and could faintly hear the laughter inside.

Su Xiao looked at the remains of the insignificant women outside the mansion, and was silent for a long time before slowly knocking on the door.

The housekeeper with a gloomy face opened the door and couldn't help but be a little surprised to see Su Xiao, but his eyes swept over the epaulettes of the Green Apple Academy on Su Xiao's body, and he instantly understood Su Xiao's identity, showed a smile, and politely invited Su Xiao in.

"Mr. Su, wait a while, you can walk around this courtyard freely, and I will report to the master." Looking at the back of the housekeeper leaving, Su Xiao sighed and swept his gaze to this magnificent courtyard.

Although it was only a wall, Su Xiao had a feeling of going from winter to summer.

The courtyard is not only the scorching sun, but also the decoration of the courtyard and the selection of flowers and plants are also only in summer, it seems that this courtyard has not been affected by abnormal weather, and still lives a normal spring, summer, autumn and winter.

In addition to the blossom trees, there are many girls in underwear, who are standing by the wall with shy faces, as if waiting for something.

This is not the first time Su Xiao has stepped into the mansion of a nobleman, the last time Kreis broke into the mansion of Elder Song alone, he followed Qing He and his party to go in and stroll hastily.

Perhaps because he didn't have time to take a closer look, the Song Yuanling Mansion that Su Xiao looked at that day was far less luxurious and extravagant than today's.

"It's a great honor that Su came in person." The drunken young man walked out of the back room directly with two naked girls in his arms, presumably this is the aristocrat Ding Zhen that Su Xiao wants to see.

Ding Zhen looked at Su Xiao drunkenly, and while telling him interesting stories about the past two days, he asked the housekeeper to pick up the prototype of the creation that he threw into the warehouse.

Su Xiao listened quietly, nodding in response from time to time, his face calm.

"Student Su, I'll tell you the truth, I was also a student of Green Apple Academy." Ding Zhen drunkenly hugged Mei Ji and said with a smile.

Su Xiao was stunned when she heard this, and asked tentatively, "Which session is Mr. Ding?" I guess it's my senior. ”

"One year older than you, it's just that my grades were not up to standard, and I was driven back by Senior Sister Qinghe."

Su Xiao smiled wryly, and just wanted to comfort a few words, but heard Ding Zhen say with a sincere face: "I am still very grateful to Senior Sister Qinghe, I know that she is for my good, and my admission depends on the special contribution of the family, whether it is strength or talent, it is far from other students."

And Green Apple Academy has a lot of trials and tasks involving life and death, and if I stay, I will definitely die. ”

Su Xiao nodded silently, recalling the time when she first entered school, and her heart moved slightly.

"Since I think Qinghe is my best and most true senior sister, then you are my brother-in-law.

In that case, I ask you something. Do you know why Senior Sister Qinghe always drives away students like me? ”

Su Xiao was stunned when she heard this, and shook her head.

Ding Zhen showed a smug smile, he approached Su Xiao's ear, and whispered: "Legend has it that the sister who died on the battlefield was specially enrolled. Senior Sister Qinghe has been blaming herself for not taking good care of her. ”

Su Xiao's body trembled slightly, and he suddenly understood something.

The housekeeper on the side looked at Ding Zhen with some embarrassment and gently pulled his sleeve.

Ding Zhen also consciously lost his words, and after smiling awkwardly, he said boldly: "This kind of private matter is still left to you two to talk slowly, I won't talk nonsense, this is what Senior Sister Qinghe wants me to hand over to you, you can see if it's right." ”

Looking at the prototype of the creation in Ding Zhen's hand, Su Xiao nodded gratefully and reached out to take it.

After repeatedly rejecting Ding Zhen's invitation to join the carnival with him, Su Xiao put away the prototype of the creation and stepped out of Ding Zhen's mansion.

Looking at the remains outside the mansion, and thinking about the interesting things Ding Zhen said before, Su Xiao suddenly understood something.

The people at the bottom don't know how many have frozen to death, but these have nothing to do with the nobles.

In the sweaty courtyard burned by their own stove, they drank ice drinks and enjoyed the joy of summer.

But the women at the bottom have added a new way to sell themselves.

Fire slaves, who voluntarily became the objects of the nobles' desecration, in order to enter the warm house and not freeze to death.

But what these women didn't know was that most of them were thrown out the next day, frozen to death outside the mansion, and then taken away by the corpse collection team of the City Lord's Mansion to be added to the incinerator.

After all, it was June, and the preparations of the City Lord's Mansion were not very sufficient. According to the experience of previous years, the incinerator should have been extinguished in March, but it lasted until June.

However, it eventually went out.
