It's much better to wear a hat on your head, and the frost and dew won't wet your hair anymore.

Fortunately, guarding the charcoal stove, the evaporating frost with hot gas is not too heavy.

Xiao Qi sat honestly by the carbon stove, not that she didn't think of taking this opportunity to practice swordsmanship, but then Xiao Qi dispelled this idea in her heart, if she practiced, she would definitely wake up Brother Qiu, who had just fallen asleep.

People who practice martial arts are much more sensitive to the outside world than normal people, not to mention that Brother Qiu is already strong in martial arts, and he can't hide his ears when there is any trouble.

Fortunately, it was not idle to do anything, he took a wooden board from the carriage, and Xiao Qi guarded the charcoal stove to carry the internal strength.

The time for practice always passed quickly, and when Xiao Qi came back to his senses from the exercises, the sky had already shone slightly.

At the end of the exercise, the girl stood up and stretched her body, moved her fists and feet a few times, gave up the idea of practicing the knife, and stopped her hands and feet after practicing the fist technique.

Glancing at the two tents that were not moving, she smiled lightly, she took out a few small sweet potatoes from the carriage and washed them, ready to boil some porridge, steamed some steamed eggs, and it was almost there.

There is no difficulty in these, Xiao Qi will still be neat, as long as she is not allowed to stir-fry and cook, as long as she does not have anything to do with oil, this girl still can't be hungry herself.

The sweet potatoes were cut into small pieces by Xiao Qi with a dagger and thrown into the pot, and a few handfuls of rice were washed and thrown in, and half a pot of water was added to the example of Brother Qiu, and then put on the grate and took some buns and eggs, covered the pot and lived.

Next, he took a few sticks of dry wood from the car and filled them into the charcoal stove.

After a while, there was a strong aroma of sweet potato porridge, smelling this taste, Xiao Qi was very satisfied, she was also a person who could cook.

Maybe the porridge was too fragrant, or maybe it was dawn, and when the porridge was about to be cooked, Grandpa Cui and Brother Qiu came out of the tent at the same time.

"It's really fragrant, our Xiaoqi is getting more and more capable." Following the aroma of porridge, Dr. Cui looked at Xiao Qi with a smile on his face, full of praise.

"It's fragrant, I also think it's quite fragrant, it seems that my skills in making porridge have grown again." Xiao Qi said immodestly with Grandpa Cui's words, with a little bit of arrogance on his little face.

"Very fragrant" Dr. Cui nodded again very applaudedly, and then went to wash up at Xiao Qi's urging.

On the other side, Qiu Jing had already washed up, was in a good mood and prepared the dishes and chopsticks, and took over the rest of the things from Xiao Qi's hands very naturally.

After eating and drinking, the next step was in a nervous hurry.

Soon two days passed, and when they passed through a prefecture city at noon, Xiao Qi and they obviously felt that the atmosphere was different.

It seems that the people here are a little nervous, as if they are worried about something?

With questions, Xiao Qi's carriage stopped outside a restaurant that seemed to be of decent size.

Under the leadership of the guy, the black beans were placed, some forage and water were added, and then the guy entered the restaurant together.

The people who dined in a huge restaurant only had a few tables, which shows that the sequelae before the disaster are still very serious.

Xiao Qi and the others sat down by the window.

The guy in charge of hospitality warmly poured a cup of tea for each of them.

"Guest officer, please use tea" "What does the guest officer want to eat?" Our signature dishes are hung on the wall in front of us, so that a few guests can take a look at them, or a small one can be introduced to a few guests. The guy with the blue cloth on his head said earnestly.

Receiving the eyes of Grandpa Cui and Brother Qiu, Xiao Qi, who didn't want to waste time, said to the guy: "Come here with two of your signature dishes, and then a soup and vegetarian dishes, and a few servings of dry rice for the time being." ”

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!" Hearing this, the guy put down the teapot in his hand, bowed down and left happily to make arrangements.

Maybe it was because there were few customers who didn't make them wait too long, and the meal was served quickly.

When the guy left, he Xiao Qi called out to him, took out more than ten copper plates from his body and handed them to him.

"Little second brother, I want to ask you something."

The guy who collected the money was obviously a little enthusiastic, "If the guest officer has anything to ask, as long as I know, I must know everything." ”

Xiao Qi: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just think it's strange, we thought that the atmosphere in the city was a little depressing, everyone seemed to be a little serious, I don't know what happened?" ”

"The guest officer originally asked about this matter, and the objective observation is really meticulous, the atmosphere in the city has been a little depressing in the past two days, mainly because the big guy heard that the barbarian army has driven the troops outside the border, and the war may be on the verge of breaking out, can the big guy not be nervous when he hears about this matter?"

Then the guy glanced at the shopkeeper and whispered, "Presumably, the guest officer also saw the business of the restaurant, although there are also reasons for the epidemic, but it is usually not so bleak, everyone now has some money in their hands and wants to buy food and things, and there are fewer people who go to the restaurant to eat, and a little silver also wants to stay in his hand, if once the side hammer can't hold on, it is good to leave as soon as possible." ”

"Alas, I'm afraid it will be difficult in the future, General Wen still had a hope among the people in the past, but now the general is dying, and the situation is really not optimistic."

This guy is talking about the Tao, I'm afraid I haven't heard much talk about it these days.

Although he already had a bad premonition, hearing the news, Xiao Qi was still stunned, and couldn't help but look at his eldest brother and Grandpa Cui.

The guy saw that the guest in front of him was digesting the news, so he automatically retreated very discerningly.

As expected, the barbarian army would not let go of this good opportunity at all.

I hope that the soldiers in the border areas can hold on, after all, the situation in the provinces and cities after the disaster is much better than what she dreamed.

It should no longer be like in a dream, the frontier soldiers are like a plate of loose sand that is easily captured by the barbarians.

"Don't think about it, kid, hurry up and hurry up after finishing your meal, and rush back to Beichi County as soon as possible." Doctor Cui said with a solemn face.

At his age, he especially knew the cruelty of the aftermath of war.

Xiao Qi nodded and didn't say anything more, but from the speed of eating, she could see that she was in a hurry.

Qiu Jing's eyes were also a lot more solemn, and after eating, he kept helping Xiao Qi with her favorite dishes.

"Brother Qiu, you don't have to help me clip you and eat your own, let's be faster, I can't let go of my heart if I don't get home." Xiao Qi swallowed the food in his mouth and took the time to say to Brother Qiu.

"Okay" said that he gave Xiao Qijia a few more chopsticks and meat dishes, and Qiu Jing sped up the speed of eating.

I was eating Qiu Jing and seemed to think of something again? shouted to the guy who was not far away.

"Little Er, help us pack more steamed buns and other easy-to-put foods, the more the merrier, we will keep it for the road to eat." As he spoke, he took out a few copper plates from his arms and handed them to the guy.

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute." As he spoke, the man walked quickly towards the shopkeeper's side.

Xiao Qi, who was eating food, listened to Brother Qiu's arrangement, and his heart was not ironing, Brother Qiu thought of going with her, and I am afraid that there will be less and less time to rest for the next journey, so I should prepare more food.

Soon after paying the bill with the packed food, they drove the carriage out of the restaurant without stopping.

Because he was in a hurry, he didn't stay in Fucheng for long, he said that he had added a bucket of water and didn't add anything else, so he went straight out of the city, ran onto the official road and went straight in the direction of Beichi County.
