Chapter 2 Meteorites

Su Ming walked very slowly, and wanted to go home several times, but when he saw Zhang Xiaohu's excited appearance, he couldn't bear to disturb.

"Let's go, there's still one last bit of snow on it, I'm going to build a snowman and bring it back. Zhang Xiaohu saw the snow in front of him and excitedly sped up his pace.

Su Ming sighed leisurely, come here, just enjoy the scenery.

There was a pavilion halfway up the mountain, and the two rested for a while, Su Ming didn't want to go up because he had no strength.

Zhang Xiaohu saw Su Ming's state, hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Ming, I still have a candy for you to eat." ”

Su Ming was stunned for a moment, then a little excited, and said with a smile: "Thank you, then I'll accept it." ”

I rejoiced, I haven't eaten candy since I came. I can't wait to peel off the outer layer of wrapping paper and put it in my mouth.

Damn, this smell, it's so light. Su Ming's heart suddenly felt like a basin of cold water, and his joy immediately changed. Hey, the businessman doesn't have a good thing.

The candy melted quickly in his mouth, and in the time of half a cup of tea, Su Ming finished eating, and when he saw that Xiaohu staring at him, he was also a little angry, exhaled, and said, "Let's go, I'll go up with you!"

On the other side of the pavilion is the stone steps up the mountain, which was fine at first, but after ten meters it began to tremble.

The two sat on a stone step, Su Ming wiped the sweat on his head, and said a little puzzled: "Why do you have to build a snowman, it's been a few days, and it's going to melt." ”

"Next door Wang Fang was sick a few days ago and didn't see snow, I want to make a little snowman for her. After speaking, Zhang Xiaohu himself was a little embarrassed, and his eyes quickly looked ahead.

"Oh, that's it!"

Su Ming was a little surprised, he didn't expect Zhang Xiaohu to be so attentive, and suddenly quipped: "You shouldn't have taken a fancy to her, right?"

"What's the matter, she's so fierce, she always calls me Fat Tiger. Zhang Xiaohu's fat face was a little red.

"Haha. Su Ming laughed.

At the end of the stone steps is also a gazebo, which is located at the highest point of the North Mountain, and there is indeed some snow around it, like a white blanket covering the ground.

"The snow on the ground is too thin, and look, there's still one on top of the gazebo. Zhang Xiaohu pointed to the top of the gazebo and said happily.

Su Ming glanced at him and said helplessly: "It's so high, you can climb up?"

"Oh, yes. Zhang Xiaohu reacted.

"Speechless, what a talent. Find more snow on the ground and take it with you, hurry. Su Ming urged, he now wanted to go back and lie on that thatched bed and sleep beautifully.

"Oh yes, you can bring some for me. Zhang Xiaohu took off his padded jacket, took off a cloth shirt inside, spread it on the ground, used it as a cloth bag, and put snow on it.

Su Ming glanced at it, didn't say much, and hurriedly took a handful of snow on the ground and put it up.

The snow was very thin, only less than half an inch thick, Su Ming slowly pushed forward with the palm of his hand close to the ground, and the snow in his palm accumulated a lot before picking it up.

"Oops. Su Ming didn't pay attention, the edge of the palm of his left hand was scratched by the edge of a stone in the snow, and blood marks appeared, but the wound was not deep, Su Ming just found a few leaves and pasted them.

"It's really unlucky, I knew I wouldn't come!" Su Ming was a little angry, looking at the stone, wanting to kick it away, but looking at the appearance of the stone again, he grabbed it, and then held it in the palm of his hand, Su Ming felt that its weight was very light, and then looked at the color, Su Ming understood a little.

This is the fragment of the flying stone outside the sky three years ago, at first these fragments were not paid attention to, and then the government posted a notice saying that these fragments are harmful to people and animals, and they are not allowed to be privately hidden.

Su Ming knew that this could be rewarded, and he was overjoyed, and when he thought about its texture, it was very strange. You must know that in his previous life, Su Ming graduated from geology, and at this moment he really couldn't think of what kind of material such a light meteorite was.

Holding his right hand in the palm of his hand, Su Ming looked at it carefully, the shape of the gravel was narrow and long, oval, half the height of the palm, the whole was brown, there were several broken edges and corners on it, some of them were sharp, and the weight was not even half a catty.

Su Ming saw that Zhang Xiaohu didn't care about his actions, and quietly put the meteorite into his pocket.

After another half of the incense stick, about three bowls of snow were collected, and Zhang Xiaohu's cloth shirt was piled up.

"Almost, let's go!" Zhang Xiaohu crossed the sleeves of his shirt and knotted it, and with his back behind him, he took the lead and walked down the mountain.

"Why are you in such a hurry, hurry to see Wang Fang!" Su Ming began to joke again.

"If it's too late, the snow will melt, and she won't be able to see. Zhang Xiaohu's face stopped blushing this time.

Su Ming grinned, suddenly remembering his first love in college, and felt a little emotional for a while.

Soon after going back, Zhang Xiaohu and his father were already standing anxiously at the door of the store, waving to Zhang Xiaohu from afar.

"You little rabbit, where have you been?" his father didn't say a word, just split his head and covered his face.

"Didn't I tell you, I went out with Su Ming. "Zhang Xiaohu is a little aggrieved, didn't I say hello to you.

Su Ming looked at it and replied with a smile: "Uncle, let's go to the mountains to see the snow, no, Xiaohu will bring a little back." ”

"Look at the snow, the rebel army is about to fight under the city, prepare to flee!" Zhang Xiaohu and his father cried with a sad face, and fleeing meant that his assets were almost gone.

"What, how can this be, rebels, why haven't I heard of it?" Su Ming was a little puzzled, there were a lot of people coming and going from the north to the south of the inn, why didn't he even hear a shadow.

"Yesterday afternoon, the hungry people and robbers in the area of Fengshan Mansion colluded to gather people to make trouble, and this morning the entire three towns of Beishan Province were all captured, and they opened warehouses to release grain, and soon won the hearts of the people, and for a time many people joined, and I heard that there were nearly 20,000 people in the team. Zhang's father hurriedly said a few words, and then took Zhang Xiaohu home.

Su Ming was taken aback, 20,000 people is not a small number, how could the other party's combat effectiveness be so strong, and he captured Beishan Mansion in such a short time.

Nanfeng County is one of the ten counties of Yueguo, located in the southeast, adjacent to the East China Sea, and has three prefectures under its jurisdiction: Beishan Prefecture, Fengshan Prefecture and Linhai Prefecture.

Su Ming is located in Luoxia Town, the northernmost part of Linhai Mansion, adjacent to Beishan Mansion. There are three towns in Linhai Prefecture: Luoxia Town, Hongxia Town, and Chaoxia Town.

Su Ming saw that the pedestrians on the street looked in a hurry, and he also quickened his pace back to the inn.

Entering through the back door, the horses in the stable were gone, and it seemed that the people who were staying in the stables were gone.

When I came to the inn hall, it was not meal time, only a few people gathered around the square table, and Boss Xu was also there.

Boss Xu's real name is Xu Cuishan, he is kind and courteous; when he was young, he studied for a few years, and began to do business after his career was hopeless, and he bought this shop in the downtown area in a few years, and renamed it Xu Ji Inn. Su Ming has never been regarded by the current people, and Su Ming's impression of him is still good.

At this moment, Boss Xu, Aunt Liu, and several other handymen were also there, and several of them were silent, their faces were not good-looking, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

"Master, what is said outside is true?" Su Ming stepped forward and bowed.

Xu Cuishan glanced at Su Ming, didn't blame him for why he went out, sighed slightly, and said, "I was just about to go to look for you, you happened to come, I inquired many times, and the news outside is true." Halfway through speaking, his eyes glanced at a few people, and his face seemed to be even more ugly, "I'm ready to go, go to relatives, this is a silver ticket, fifty taels per person, you can go." ”

After speaking, Xu Cuishan took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve, about ten, counted them, and then got up from the chair and handed them out to everyone one by one.

Su Ming's monthly salary is only three taels, fifty taels is already a lot for him, not only Su Ming, but several other miscellaneous servants also feel incredible, but everyone did not speak, Xu Cuishan has done his best to do this.

"Dad, we're really leaving!"

Xu Yingying, who was dressed in white, hurried from outside the door, panting and breathing.

"Yes. ”

Xu Cuishan glanced at his daughter, said a little helplessly, and then, walking to his bedroom at the back door, Xu Yingying glanced at everyone, did not speak, and followed Xu Cuishan's footsteps.

Su Ming didn't expect that the next time he saw Xu Yingying would be many years later, of course, that was a later story.

Su Ming now wants to die, what kind of golden finger and big backer do others have crossed, he has been here for less than three years, he has been displaced, and now he has just had a stable day, catching up with the troubled times, God, why are you doing this to me!
