Chapter 224: Serious Snow?
In the twenty-first year of Wanren, the first snow in Tianren City came earlier than before.
It's autumn, and the dead leaves on the trees haven't fallen yet, and the snowflakes have already fallen.
The snowflakes that had been sparsely scattered quickly became dense and fell to the ground with a rustling sound.
Ji Que stood beside Zhang Yishan, who fell to the ground, and sighed, "Is this a grievance?"
If this sudden heavy snow is unexpected enough, then Ji Que's victory over the top three of the Qingyu list can be said to be thunder.
There is only one thought in everyone's hearts, that is, the Qingyu Bang is about to explode.
For a long time, although Ji Que's reputation in the north is getting more and more famous, most people have a strong impression of him, but he is Ning Hongyu's subordinate, because of his handsome appearance, he is suspected of eating Ning Hongyu's soft rice.
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, Ji Que is behind Ning Hongyu, and it is common sense that Ning Hongyu is not as good.
And the great good girl Zhang Yishan's ranking on the Qingyu list even has to be crushed by Ning Hongyu, so it is difficult for them to be optimistic about Ji Que, thinking that Ji Que has swelled after many victories, and they don't know how deep the water in the cultivation world is.
But the fact is that this pool of water is nothing to Ji Que.
At this time, Zhang Yishan's followers had begun to drag Zhang Yishan in the deep pit, and Ji Que walked over, so frightened that they shook and sat on the ground.
Now in their eyes, Ji Que is already daunting, and the slightest movement can scare them into urine.
They couldn't wait to leave Zhang Yishan on the spot, and ran away without looking back, but their legs didn't obey the call.
Ji Que stood in front of Zhang Yishan and said, "Don't pretend to be dead, apologize."
Zhang Yishan's originally closed squinting eyes opened, and while coughing up blood, he said in pain, "I'm sorry."
Ji Que said, "Then is the beam between us over, or is it going to continue?"
Zhang Yishan said with tears in her eyes, "It's over."
At this time, Ji Que glanced at the two frightened followers and said, "Take it away."
For a while, the two followers were amnesty, and hurriedly ran away with the great good girl Zhang Yishan.
From their expressions, it could be seen that they were afraid of Ji Que like a ghost.
And on the side of the Demon Suppression Building, the gaze of Ji Que has also changed.
What is this called eating Ning Hongyu's dinner, how does this give people a feeling that it is harder than Miss Ning?
This duel between the Demon Slayer Building and the Demon Suppression Valley, because of the deep and hard reasons of Ji Que, the Demon Suppression Building can be described as a big victory, and the Demon Slayer who was pressed and bullied by the Demon Suppression Valley in the past two months couldn't help but breathe a bad sigh.
Those colleagues who had just silently retreated behind the crowd rushed over one after another, expressing their admiration for Ji Que like a surging river, endlessly.
Looking at the crowd of people, he would automatically give way wherever he went, Ji Que couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Why is there a feeling of a black boss again?"
Not long after the newly built Demon Suppression Building was completed, it encountered the blow of the Demon Elimination Valley, and everyone felt that this luck was not good, and some fellow Taoist priests thought that it was a bad omen.
After Ji Que's battle, most people thought that the Demon Suppression Building had a Zhongxing trend, and the fellow Taoist priest even changed his words, "This is a good omen."
It was this snow, and everyone only felt a lot colder. ….
In just half a day, the originally scattered snowflakes turned into goose feather snow, and there is a tendency to get bigger and bigger.
Snowflakes sprinkled like goose feathers on the bamboo forest, and the black roof tiles stained everything white, giving people a very unreal feeling.
The four seasons of Tianren City have always been distinct, and even if there is occasional snowfall in winter, it is still just a light snow that does not form a climate, or what people call it.
It can be said that the reason why Tianren City can gather so many people is that it is indeed a blessed land with good weather and good weather, and there have been no natural disasters for many years.
There has never been snow in the autumn in Tianren City, at least the old people who have lived here for many years have no memories of it.
[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, @
The girl in the Qinglou can be seen from the cool dress of the tulle dress as usual.
In the past winter, they probably dressed like this.
But at this time, the girls who were dressed up coolly all year round couldn't bear it anymore and began to add clothes one after another.
After this snowfall, the chill in the area of Tianren City has exceeded the coldest month of winter in the past.
Lin Xiangzhi nibbled on the honeydew melon and said in surprise, "It's really snowing?"
In fact, the entire people of Tianren City were extremely surprised by this.
The men and women who were wearing short shirts and light skirts were so cold that they hurriedly took out their winter clothes to avoid the cold.
The poor are the least fond of this kind of weather.
In the cold winter, the rich can wear fox fur and eat hot pot freely, while the poor are not full of food, clothing, and have to resist the cold, which is particularly difficult.
In particular, the beggars who sleep on the streets thought that there would be another autumn to live on, but they were suddenly dragged to "hell".
But they still held out hope, because it was a vision of heaven and earth, and it should not last long.
Ji Que, like most people, thinks that this snow will fall for two or three days at most.
Unfortunately, his prediction was wrong.
This snow has not stopped for four whole days and has a tendency to get bigger and bigger.
At first, the whole autumn world was covered in snow, not much different from the usual winter snow.
However, after more than three days of heavy snowfall, the lives of everyone in Tianren City were greatly affected.
On the fourth day after defeating the Great Good Girl, Ji Que looked at the snow in his courtyard that was about to cross the threshold, and was a little surprised.
His surprise here, in the midst of more beings living in Tianren City, gradually turned into fear.
At first, the snow soaks the ankles at most, making it only slightly difficult to get around, but as the snow covers the calves, some of the frail people don't want to go out.
When this autumn snow has affected people's lives, the people in this area have no experience in this area at all.
Some of the bright-minded and conservative by nature were already secretly buying and storing food when the snow fell until the next day.
On the fourth day, when more and more people found that it was safe to store some food and firewood, the snow had already closed many roads.
People have a hard time traveling, even if they are young and strong, walking a few dozen steps is a big gasp, and they can't wait to turn back immediately.
Walking on such a snowy road, and looking at the goose feather snow that keeps falling, there is a sense of panic that you will be drowned. ….
The snow fell like goose feathers, bringing with it a rustling sound.
Some people began to know the snow in the courtyard, but found that the snow outside the courtyard gate had accumulated so deeply that it was difficult to sweep it out.
With the snow closing the road, the streets of Tianren City, which were originally lively, became extremely deserted and bleak.
For cultivators like Ji Que, the snow can't stop them from going, for example, right now, Ji Que is swimming around the snow in the courtyard.
Lin Xiangzhi was wearing a goose-yellow silk skirt and did not feel cold.
She walks on the snow, her feet do not sink under the snow, only a shallow footprint.
This kind of walking on the snow can be done by monks who have reached the Second Realm Condensation Realm.
Ji Que swam very well with his eyes closed, and when he got up, he plunged into the snow and came to a dive.
He is still optimistic.
The visions of heaven and earth are divided into large and small, and it is impossible to say if they will come for a few more days this time.
As a result, he was just about to get up from the diving snow when the crooked-necked tree in the yard fell coldly and fell straight on him.
Ji Que lifted the tree and climbed out, looking at the vast snow that was still falling, and realized for the first time that if this snow continued to fall like this, I was afraid that people would die.
Because of the snow, he stayed at home for several days and did not go out on the streets.
He knows that in this kind of weather, the tofu brain stall will not set up a stall.
The vast snow covered the world in front of me, and the scenery that was not repeated became similar for a while, and the season was lacking for a while
I felt a little bored, so I decided to go out for a walk.
Lin Xiangzhi also followed, saying that there was no food at home.
She doesn't even know where she can buy groceries now.
The shops along the street were closed, and the thick snow flooded the threshold, and even a section of the door panel, so that Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi had the illusion that they had grown taller.
Where the snow was deeper, the courtyard walls that used to be jumped over were now almost as high as theirs.
Later, they also saw a man lying on his stomach mending the roof of a tiled house crushed by the snow.
He leaned on the roof of the house and listened to the sound of the wife of the family handing the tiles below.
Seeing this, Ji Que said, "Do you want to help?"
The man was stunned for a moment, not expecting that someone would come out of such a heavy snow.
At this time, a little girl's voice came from the house—"Daddy, Mother, I'm so cold."
Ji Que no longer hesitated, and jumped lightly to the roof, startling the man.
The next moment, he jumped straight into the house.
The floor of the house was piled with tiles, good and bad.
Originally, the woman and the little girl in the house were startled when they saw a person suddenly jumping down, thinking that they were not lovers, but after seeing Ji Que's handsome face, they were relieved again.
looks so handsome, doesn't look like a bad person.
The next moment, Ji Que's body turned vigorously, and the tiles on the ground flew up one after another, sticking to him.
At first glance, he looked like he was wearing a robe made of tiles.
He jumped onto the eaves, and with the strength of Tai Chi, the tiles on his body also spun.
There seemed to be many more pairs of invisible hands in the air, and the tiles fell on the roof one by one, stacked up.
After a few moments, the roof was repaired. ….
The man naturally knew that he had met the monk, so he hurriedly thanked him on the rooftop, "Thank you, young man."
Ji Que hurriedly supported him and said, "Don't kneel, be careful that it collapses, go back."
As he spoke, he landed lightly on the street and walked out.
"Dare to ask the young man's name?"
The man was about to thank him again, but Ji Que just waved his hand without looking back, and disappeared into the street with Lin Xiangzhi.
The man stood on the roof, looking at a man and a woman who had disappeared into the wind and snow, and only felt like a dream.
Then he couldn't help but shudder, and climbed down the ladder, saying as he climbed, "I'm freezing to death."
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi were walking on the road, and suddenly thought of a question, and couldn't help but say, "Our water house won't be crushed by snow, right?"
In these houses, what he has been worried about is the water house.
The water house is relatively poorly repaired, and it will be blistered every year, which is the least strong.
So he decided to check it out.
There is a long distance from the Qing Canal to Linshui Lane, walking in the vast snow, there is no one on the street, Ji Que only feels that the Tianren City, which was quite familiar, has become unfamiliar.
At this time, the two finally saw someone on the street.
Two ragged beggars were buried in the snow with pale faces.
Ji Que stepped forward and pulled them out, he found that they were dead and their bodies were stiff.
One of these little beggars was familiar to him, and he once asked him for food in Linshui Lane, and he looked to be less than ten years old.
Lin Xiangori stood behind him, speechless.
Looking at the corpses of these two beggars, Ji Que sighed helplessly.
He didn't know where to bury them.
There is an ancient poem that says, "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road." , but Ji Que is clear, if this snow continues like this, I'm afraid that Zhumen will be unable to protect itself.
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi came to the old house in Linshui Lane.
The snow was so thick in the alley that I couldn't even see the ditch next to it.
The snow here is almost waist-deep, and the courtyard door of the water house has been tilted.
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi wanted to sweep the snow, but there were still people around this alley, and if they swept their own snow, they would pile it in front of other people's houses.
In the end, the two had no choice but to give up.
The sky was frighteningly overcast, and gray lead clouds were piling up on the sky, which was very oppressive.
For a while, the snow may not stop.
The two of them continued to walk, and the snack street, which used to be quite noisy, was now only the two of them stepping on the snow, and the world was lonely.
At this moment, a woman's screams suddenly came from the next house.
"Xianggong, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't come here!"
"If you dare to mess around, I'll report to the official."
At this time, only a man's voice was heard - "Reporter? Now that the official master himself can't manage it, will he still take care of this? Take out all the money, and let our two brothers be refreshed, madam, and let you and your useless husband live."
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi glanced at each other, and their feet landed on the courtyard wall of the house a little on the snow.
The yard was covered with snow and sprinkled with bright red blood.
A man with a sharp knife stuck in his abdomen, his face pale, fell under the eaves.
Inside the house, a woman is holding scissors and confronting two men in black.
The two men wore black gauze on their heads, and each held a sharp knife, one of which was still stained with blood, and they looked quite fierce.
"Someone! Help!" The woman trembled and cried out in despair.
The tall man couldn't help but laugh wickedly, "You called! Don't look at the situation outside, even if you cut your throat to see if anyone comes?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a click, and a young man and woman landed in the courtyard.
As soon as the two knife-wielding men turned around, they saw a pair of wall figures standing there.
The two knife-wielding men were frightened.
The tall man wore a black gauze cloth and his scalp was numb, but he knew that there was no turning back, so he couldn't help but turn his heart sideways, and said with a hideous face: "I advise you not to meddle in your affairs, otherwise you won't have good fruit to eat!"
The sword flew in the rainstorm
