Chapter 1: Seeking to stay in the mountains
The cold wind is howling, and the cold is blowing.
Wang Xiao woke up slowly.
I felt that my chest was hard and uncomfortable, and I subconsciously turned over.
Smack.
There was a sturdy intimate contact directly with the ground.
The hazy sleepiness suddenly woke up for seven or eight minutes.
"Am I not in a tent......" Wang Xiao muttered.
Rubbed his heavy eyelids.
When I opened my eyes, I found that the familiar army green tent was gone.
Looking up, there was a gray, overcast sky outside.
Sky?
Before it got dark last night, I had clearly laid out my tent sleeping bags.
Did you sleepwalk at night and run outside and sleep all night?
Can......
Where is this?
Frowning and looking around.
What catches your eye is a barren wilderness plain, completely out of step with the jungle environment surrounding the campsite.
In front of him, except for a bare dirt path that led to no one, there was only one horse and himself.
Wang Xiao looked at his whole body, and his mood gradually became heavy.
The phone was gone, as was the wallet and all the documents inside that could prove identity.
What he was wearing was a bloated cyan robe without any impression.
This strange strange costume.
and the horse next to him, who has been quietly waiting for his master.
What the hell is going on?
Even if you sleepwalk, the clothes you wear when you wake up shouldn't change......
Could it be that there is a supernatural event?
Wang Xiao's thoughts fluttered, feeling that his current situation was gloomy and compassionate, very grotesque.
Suddenly.
A sharp pinprick-like pain came from deep in the head.
Strange information flooded into my mind.
Wang Xiao, who had just woken up and was still weak, only felt that his eyes were dark, and he fell into a coma again.
When I woke up again, it was already dark.
He got up and touched his wet robe that had been beaten by the evening frost.
Wang Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I scared myself before.
It's just that I never thought that the episodes in the online novel would happen to me.
He crossed.
Judging by the memory fragments that have just been received.
This is a world very similar to the ancient feudal dynasties of China, but not quite the same.
There is a imperial examination system, there are princes and nobles, there are rivers and lakes, and there are even more strange forces!
Folk demons are in trouble, and ghosts are rampant.
In the Yamen of the Criminal Department in the capital, countless cases of demons and demons are submitted to the Demon Suppression Division every day.
The villagers who could not bear the ravages of ghosts and monsters in various places also sold their fields and turned into homeless people, dragging their families and flocking to the capital.
The ground was full of hunger, and ten rooms were empty.
This is the truest portrayal of the people of Daxia.
The original owner who passed through this body was also called Wang Xiao, who had the same name and surname as Lan Xing's self.
Originally, he was a knife catcher in the warp and weft division.
I went to Beijing this time because I lost a miserable errand from above.
The reason is that after the autumn harvest, the imperial court decided to survey the world and make a large number of yellow books.
Originally, this was a matter of the household, and it couldn't be compared with the eight poles of the warp and weft division that explored the terrain and drew the map.
I don't know if it's a struggle for power and profit in the court, or an open and secret fight.
In the end, the Jingwei Division of the Qingshui Yamen also became a part of the census world.
And the candidates who went out of Beijing to the countryside.
Wang Xiao, who has no background and is not treated well by the superiors, naturally became one of the many unlucky eggs.
It's just that I never thought that this person had just left the capital, and he hadn't had time to encounter a strange force.
The weak body was infected with the wind and cold, and the camel was bumped on the back of the horse for half a day, and then he died.
Wang Xiao, a hiking enthusiast on the Blue Star, crossed over at this time.
The right path is impermanence.
"So, I'm a census taker from another world?"
Wang Xiao shook his head helplessly.
Take things as they come.
Don't think about the annoying drudgery for a while.
Right now, it's freezing cold, and there is no store in front of the village or behind it, so it's the right thing to find a place to warm up.
A cold wind is blowing.
Seeing that the horse carrying him was still standing quietly and waiting.
Wang Xiao walked up and stroked the horse's mane and said, "Let's go, take advantage of the fact that it is not dark and find a family to take shelter from the wind." ”
With that, he turned over his horse and walked away.
……
In my memory, I learned that the nearest county seat to the capital was Anping County, and the horseback riding mileage was about three hours.
Wang Xiao left the capital this morning, and was in a coma and delayed on the road for half a day.
At this time, it was dark, and it should not be possible to make it until the city gates were closed.
Hope to find some people on the road.
Wang Xiao rode his horse and galloped, thinking secretly while nibbling on dry food.
I ran like this for about half an hour.
Finally, at the foot of a mountain not far from the post road, Wang Xiao saw a faint yellow candlelight.
He immediately turned his horse's head and rode forward.
After a few moments, arrive at the present.
Wang Xiao knocked on the simple wooden door on the fence and asked loudly, "Is anyone there?" ”
The whispers in the room seemed to be interrupted by strangers.
After a moment of silence, the door creaked open a tiny gap.
The owner of the house leaned against the door, showed one eye, and asked, "What is it?" ”
Wang Xiao turned over and dismounted, hugged his fists and said: "The master's family is good, in Xia Wang Xiao, the people of the capital." ”
"I went out of Beijing today to visit relatives in Anping County, but I accidentally got lost in the wilderness, and I couldn't find anyone until it was dark."
"The cold wind outside is really unbearable, and I ask the host to give it a convenience."
There is a request for others, Wang Xiao's posture is very low.
"Is there a way?"
"Yes, yes."
"Come in and warm yourself up by the fire."
"Thank you, host."
The owner of the house opened the door wrapped in a thick cotton coat and walked out, holding a sturdy wooden stick in his hand.
glanced at the horses led by Wang Xiao, and the look of vigilance on his face was reduced by a few points.
In these days, those who can ride horses when they go out will not be homeless people who are fainting from hunger.
"The horse is tied to the yard, the barren mountains and mountains, it's not good to let the big insects take it away."
"I'm in trouble."
Stepping into the fenced courtyard, a cold wind blew.
Tethered the horse, Wang Xiao's body trembled unconsciously, and he felt that the sky became even more gloomy at this moment.
Outside the small courtyard, there was a fog.
Wang Xiao shook his head and sighed at the impermanence of the sky, turned around and walked into the house.
The bitter cold wind was kept outside.
As soon as I entered the door, my eyes were attracted by a woman in the house.
It is different from the coarse cotton clothes worn by the owner of the house.
She sat down at the small table.
The green silk is like a waterfall, and the eyes are like silk.
He was draped in a light yellow gauze robe cut from fine satin and paired with a long embroidered skirt of the same color.
It's like a budding peony flower.
This, is the wife of a mountain hunter?
……
Sitting next to the stove, Wang Xiao chose to find something to talk about in order to hide the surprise in his heart.
So I chatted with the owner of the house about whether I had a match or not.
Orion's surname is Wu.
took Wang Xiao's road and looked at it.
After learning that he was an errand boy in the capital, his attitude was a lot more respectful.
"Poor master, drink a bowl of hot water to warm up, the broth will be good immediately."
"I'm tired."
When the hot water enters the abdomen, the chill in the body is dispelled a lot.
On the fire, the cauldron of boiling beast meat gurgled and steamed, and the fragrance hit, making Wang Xiao's empty stomach and index finger move.
Nevertheless.
But Wang Xiao's attention.
But it was difficult to move away from the woman who was doing female red next to her.
Her eyes glanced at Wang Xiao and the others from time to time.
I don't know if it's an illusion.
Wang Xiao felt her expression.
In addition to the love for her husband, there is also a faint charm that makes people reverie.
She's teasing me!
Wang Xiao's heart swayed.
Although the Internet was developed in his previous life, he has seen many beauties in various channels.
But the person in front of him, Wang Xiao subconsciously felt that he was not as vulgar as those vulgar fans.
The perfect face without powder, and the smile between the conversation between Wang Xiao and Wang Xiao from time to time, are quite everyone's style.
"Stop!"
"Friends and wives can't be bullied!"
"The master treats me sincerely, and it is convenient for me to avoid this bone-chilling wind, but I am coveting his wife!"
"I'm no different from that thief!"
