Chapter 266: Frozen Bones
When he turned around, "Hey, Uncle Flyer, what kind of clothes are you wearing?"
Xiao Jing coughed twice: "This is my uncle's clothes when he was a child." ”
"Oh, no wonder you look there, there's something, it's dark."
"I'll see."
Xiao Jing jumped out of the car, used his saber to pull the snow around the black cloth a few times, and suddenly turned his head and stuffed Mo Yao into the carriageway, "It's nothing, let's go in quickly." ”
Mo Yao was still pointing there, "I obviously saw something, you can take a closer look"
"You're wrong."
Couldn't help but stuff him in, close the car door, Xiao Jing glanced in the direction just now, and then sat back casually, just blocking Su Xiaojiu's sight.
It's just frozen bones, and children don't need to know about it.
Su Xiaojiu tilted his head to look over there, also curious, "It seems that there is indeed something." ”
Xiao Jing suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled her head back, and looked forward, "Don't look." ”
Su Xiaojiu was defenseless, and was so frightened by his intimate actions that he didn't dare to move, and later found out that he didn't want to let himself look into the snow, probably because there was something dirty, so he moved it to the side, and said in an urn voice, "Just say it, why do you still move your hands and feet." ”
If this is seen, a hundred mouths will not be able to explain it.
But his hands are so cold.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, I'm just afraid you'll be scared."
It's okay if he doesn't say it, this statement hooked Su Xiaojiu's heart again, why would he be so scared that he didn't let Mo Yao see it, and didn't let her see it, isn't it a stool that freezes into an ice lump
The eyes secretly looked that way, but it was just a matter of angle, and the eyeballs almost slanted out and I didn't see it.
I don't know where she got so much curiosity
Xiao Jing was helpless, "It's a corpse." ”
After speaking, he opened the carriage door and pushed the stunned Su Xiaojiu in.
The carriage was quiet for a long time, and after a while, the door gently opened a crack and silently handed out a hand stove from inside.
Su Xiaojiu had also experienced life and death, and he was shocked for a moment and calm, but then he became worried again.
This is the foot of the real imperial city, and there are frozen bones, so what about other places
The disaster of heavy snow in the south has not yet ended, and the north has also experienced such a rare cold, I really don't know if the Dayuan Dynasty can survive this difficulty.
A few small balls didn't understand the melancholy of the world, and after playing in the carriage for a while, they began to get bored.
Looking east and west, even counting how many flutes there were on the windows, the convoy still didn't move.
Su Wen and Su Wu were already sleepy, Mo Ying also yawned, waiting quietly, Mo Hong was the youngest, but the most energetic, seeing that his brothers and sisters were asleep, he asked Su Xiaojiu, "By the way, Sister Jiujiu, where are the silkworm babies that Mama gave us yesterday, have they woken up?"
Yesterday, I heard that they were leaving, Aunt Gu sent a dustpan of silkworm cocoons overnight, Mo Hong had never seen this thing, Su Xiaojiu told her that there were silkworm babies sleeping here, and when they woke up, they would become beautiful white butterflies, and then lay eggs, and there would be more silkworm babies at that time.
Su Xiaojiu bent down and pulled out the dustpan from under the couch, only to find that the quilt that was originally covered on the silkworm cocoon had been lifted by someone without knowing who had lifted it.
Since the other dumplings were asleep, she asked softly, "Who lifted the quilt of the silkworm babies, so that they will freeze to death?"
Mo Hong pointed to the sleepy Mo Yao, "When I first got in the car, the third brother seemed to say that he wanted to open it and take a look." ”
At that time, Su Xiaojiu was busy preparing the charcoal basin, and he didn't notice that when he heard that the silkworm babies had been frozen for a day, he was afraid that he would not survive, and said with some regret, "The silkworm babies should not wake up"
"Are they going to hibernate?"
In the stories told by Sister Jiujiu in the past, many small animals had to hibernate, and Mo Hong thought that silkworm babies would also hibernate.
If you tell her the truth, I am afraid that the baby will be sad, so Su Xiaojiu nodded, "Yes, the silkworm babies are hibernating, and it will be a long, long time before they wake up." ”
When the spring starts and the weather gets warmer, she can raise some silkworms in the palace, so that the babies can witness the magic of breaking the cocoon into a butterfly.
Mo Hongxin thought it was true, so he stretched out his index finger and put it to his mouth, and whispered, "Then let's be quiet, don't wake them up." ”
Su Xiaojiu nodded, stuffed the dustpan back, coaxed Mo Hong to lie down and said, "The baby can sleep too, and when you wake up, you will be home." ”
"Hmm, okay."
Dango rubbed her eyes, opened her mouth and yawned again, and found a comfortable position to sleep.
Su Xiaojiu had something in his heart, and put on his jacket and went out, Xiao Jing turned around, looked at her hair that was blown by the wind, frowned and said, "Why did you come out again, the front is almost cleaned up, and you will be able to enter the city soon, so be patient and wait." ”
Glancing at the snow, Su Xiaojiu hesitated, "Since we met, should we help bury it?"
It's okay that the snow is piling up now, but when the snow melts the next day, the corpse will be exposed
Not to mention that it will scare pedestrians, the ancients also paid attention to entering the soil for safety, since they encountered it, it is also a kind of fate, and it is always difficult to ignore it.
Xiao Jing really thought so before, but just now he poked the ground with his sword, and the soil had already hardened, so he said, "It's frozen three feet, and the ground can't be dug at all." ”
After thinking about it, he said, "You can cover it up first." ”
There was a piece of oilcloth under the carriage, which was used to cover the carriage when it rained, Xiao Jing pulled out the oilcloth, walked to the side of the corpse and swept the snow aside, Rao was used to seeing life and death, but he was still stunned for a moment.
It wasn't a corpse, it was a family of three.
The clothes on his body are all patches, and they are all single.
The first to show up was the man, beside him, snuggled up to a woman of about the same age, between the two, there were children curled up in a ball, because of too much walking, the soles of several people's feet had been worn out, and the red blood stains were frozen together with the soil, which made people unbearable to look at directly.
Su Xiaojiu wanted to help him, but when he saw the scene in front of him, his legs instantly became weak, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, but fortunately there was a car behind him, so he didn't fall down, and said in a trembling voice, "How, how can this be"
"It's like a refugee."
It's a pity that the imperial city is close in front of them, but they have never been able to step into it. Su Xiaojiu looked away, trying to keep his composure, Xiao Jing saw this, and said softly, "Obviously scared, what else do you want to do, I'll come by myself." ”
As he spoke, he shook the oilcloth in his hand and covered the family of three underneath.
Back on the wheel, Su Xiaojiu looked at the snowy sky desolately, this was just what they accidentally encountered, but they didn't know how many such poor outsiders were hidden in this vast snow
Looking into the distance, on the road behind him, a few small black dots appeared as far as the eye could see, and they were moving with difficulty in this direction, Su Xiaojiu was suddenly solemn, it was a disaster victim from other places
