I thought that I could hold on to Liquan County, but I didn't expect the snow to get heavier and heavier, and I couldn't walk as soon as I walked to Shitan Town, so I had no choice but to stop here.

Shitan Town is not as big as Yuexiu Town, nor is it prosperous, but there is also an inn, the scale is much smaller, only less than half of it.

"The snow is too big, and it's windy, so we can't see the road at all, let's settle here today, see if we can stop today, and if it doesn't work, we can stay."

Fang Zhengyi said to them.

Everyone had no objection, and opened three upper rooms in the inn, saying that they were upper rooms, which could not be compared with those in the big city, and were equivalent to medium rooms at most.

They put the carriage in the back and took down the valuables and brought them into the room.

A few people didn't take it in the lobby, there were only five tables in the lobby of this inn, and it was already full of people, and they listened to it, all of them had come here before and were blocked by heavy snow.

After exchanging glances, they went upstairs, put their things away and went to Chen Shijin's room.

They opened three rooms and they were in the innermost side by side, Chen Shijin and their room was in the outermost, they were talking inside the house, the door was open, and someone outside could find it when they passed by.

There are a total of five rooms on this floor, and there is a staircase in the middle, and there are two rooms on the other side, and there are no other people's rooms, so there is no need to worry about things being placed in the house.

Qian Yan came over directly with the child, no way, this kid is awake now, and he doesn't look like he wants to sleep at all.

On the road, I slept in the car, maybe swaying like a cradle, and woke up as soon as I got out of the car, with two big eyes dripping and turning, and I was very energetic.

When they arrived at Chen Shijin's room, several people sat at the Eight Immortals table in the outer room to discuss the next arrangements.

Fang Zhengyi spoke first: "I thought that this snow had just fallen, but I just listened to the words of the people below, it has been raining for three or four days, this is not good, it has snowed so heavily for three or four days, I want to know how thick the snow is on that road."

And I'm afraid that the villages and towns in the east will be plagued, and if we wait for the snow to stop before leaving, I don't know how many more days it will take, and then we will probably run into the victims, and then we will be in danger. ”

After all, they all have food on the car, even if they are all loaded into the carriage, looking at their ruddy faces, they also know that there is no shortage of food, and there will definitely be people who want to rob them.

Although they have kung fu, if there are more disaster victims who do it, it is inevitable that they will be invincible with two fists and four hands.

Besides, the victims are not robbers, and if they are all killed, it is indeed impossible to do anything, but if they are only injured, they will already suffer from the disaster, and they will not be able to eat and be in danger, and if they are injured and put in this snow, it is no different from killing.

It wouldn't be good for them to stay here for too long, especially the Fang family's father and son, they still had a task to do, and it would be bad if something big happened if something big happened.

Chen Shijin and them are the same, his mother's health is not very good, and she is in a hurry to go home to treat her throat, and their home is not in Yunzhou, there is still a long distance after Yunzhou.

Now this situation is like this, and it is not necessary to go or not, and everyone is a little undecided for a while.

Qian Yan looked forward with her divine sense, she could now reach out ten miles, this was her current limit.

Some of the houses in some villages over there have collapsed, they are all dilapidated houses, and the houses are already crumbling, and the snow will collapse directly.

There are no disaster victims on the road, after all, the people's homes are hoarded with food for the winter, how can they hold on for a while, even if the house collapses, it is only a few, other people's houses are still fine, help dig out the food, and make do with it in other homes can also pass for a while.

Most of the people in a village are from the same clan, and even if they are not, there is always a good relative and friend, and it is normal to help each other.

So in fact, it is better to leave now, while there is no one on the road now, it is safe, and the more delayed, the worse it is.

She told them what she thought, and it made sense for a few people to think about it, but they also had some concerns.

There is no problem with the carriage of the Qian Yan and the Fang family, no matter how thick the snow is, they are not afraid, they have this sled, and they will not be trapped in the snow at that time, but the horse may have a little more difficulty walking, and the speed is definitely not so fast.

However, Tilt Yan made the ugly look at it, the snow has just reached people's calves now, and there is no problem with walking now, if the snow falls again, it will not be necessarily.

She also asked Chouchou, and Chouchou said that as long as Liquan County passed, the weather would be a little better, although there was still light snow, which was much better than here.

The snow fell in this area, and there were only scattered light snow in the direction they came from and in other directions.

Qian Yan was puzzled and said, "Why is this piece of snow so big, but not elsewhere?" ”

"That's because there are more water sources here, and there are not only rivers around, but also pools and streams in every village. ”

"Understood, just like rain, where there is more water, there will be more rain, the sun can evaporate the water, and more water vapor can be gathered in the air, and in arid places, even if it wants to rain, there is no water to evaporate it." ”

Ugly nodded, "That's right, so now we'd better hurry up, there will be no problem walking through this wind and snow belt, the road behind is easier to walk, and we will be able to reach Yunzhou soon." ”

The top priority now is to install a sleigh board under Chen Shijin's carriage, and they don't have to care about what wood is made of wood or not, as long as they can hold on to these dozens of miles, they will be replaced when the time comes.

Fortunately, there is a carpenter shop in this town, and the carpenter shop is not as regulated as the blacksmith shop, and it must be reported to the big town, after all, the iron is controlled by the imperial court, and the carpenter does not need it, which belongs to the civilian category.

Since it was decided that a few people would not be delayed, Chen Shijin and Uncle Gui went directly to the carpenter shop in the town.

It's just noon, and if they can make it, it's still too late, at most they'll have to leave tomorrow if they delay it for an afternoon or a night.

Otherwise, the snow would have gotten thicker, and the town would have been plagued, and the snow would have reached their ankles when they had just stopped their car and walked around from behind.

The father and son of the Fang family did not go out, they stayed to watch, and the men were gone, what should I do if someone beat their carriage.

Qian Yan talked to them and the old lady for a while and then went back to the room, because the child looked at her and pouted, either hungry or peeing.

Carried him back to the room, first went to the toilet to pee for him, didn't pee much and didn't pull, it seems that he should be hungry, after all, it's been early in the morning.

Now you don't need to feed him with freshly heated milk or porridge, there are ready-made goats in the ugly space, and you can just squeeze them out, so there is no shortage of goat milk.

Ugly has already been boiled and sterilized in the space, and the goat's milk can be drunk directly.

Dumping Yan used goat's milk to make some rice paste for the child, this wood flour was ground into powder in the previous county, she fried the rice in advance, and it can be eaten directly with water, just to make it easier for the child to eat on the road, which is more convenient than cooking porridge.

The little guy is really hungry, gobbling up a small bowl, the bowl he is now using is a small wooden bowl and a wooden spoon specially bought for him, which is lighter than a pottery bowl and is not afraid of falling, and it is convenient to put it anywhere.

After eating, he scraped half an apple with a spoon to eat, and the children in the province did not eat vegetables and got on the fire, and they couldn't pull out the poop.

The child's eyes narrowed when he ate, he usually only ate milk and paste, and the taste was relatively light, and when he ate this sweet and sour taste, he didn't eat beautifully.

While eating with a smile, he still dangles his little arms back and forth, which is very cute.

Qian Yan thinks now, I can't complain that many people like children, and sure enough, human cubs are distressing, of course, this is when they are obedient and well-behaved, and there is no difference between the bear child and the little devil.

For example, the children of their neighbors recruit cats and dogs, and often roll on the ground because they want something, dirty and whirring, and they are not welcome.

When she was in Hong Kong City, there were also some arrogant and domineering children who were spoiled by the family, and she used to fight with her brother when she used to fight with them, so whether she was liked or not actually depended on the child's personality.

After eating the fruit, the little one yawned a lot, which was sleepy when he was full of food and drink.

Qian Yan picked him up and walked around on the ground, just to give the child to eat, but after a few laps, the child fell asleep on her shoulder, and he didn't have to coax others to sleep by himself.

She stopped and lightly put the child on the bed, covered him with the quilt, and began to study the next itinerary with Chouhou.

To be honest, even if you walk now, it's quite troublesome, because everyone has been trapped here by the wind and snow for a few days, no one passes by on the road, there are no rut marks at all, and the official road is not easy to recognize.

Today's roads are not like those of later generations, where there are usually two rows of trees on both sides, or drainage ditches, etc., which can be recognized even if there is snow.

Now even if it is an official road, it is only a little wider than the path, especially on the northwest side, both sides are bare, and occasionally a few trees or a forest are also wild, and no one will plant two neat rows of trees on both sides of the road.

So the next step is to rely on Ugly Ugly to guide the way, its divine sense can reach underground, Tilt Yan can't do it, she can only see the surface.

It's not a big deal, as long as she can walk, as for the village that was affected by the snow after that, they can't help it, after all, she can't control the weather, even if she wants to, she can't help.

They don't have much food in their space, and they have always bought it little by little in different places, after all, buying a large amount of food at once will attract the attention of the government.

Every time they go to a town, they will buy some, and they slowly save some, only about 2,000 catties, and they can't get it if they want to help the victims, this little thing is a drop in the bucket, so they can only rely on themselves or the imperial court.

When Chen Shijin and Uncle Gui came back, they went downstairs directly to the lobby, and it was time for lunch.

As a result, they came down to find out that because of the snow, there was only porridge and noodles in the store, and there were no dishes, not even radishes and cabbage, but some mutton, which was frozen in the snow.

In the end, the people who lived in the inn ate mutton soup and boiled noodles, and if they really didn't like to eat, they drank millet porridge and ate the dry food they brought.

They were sure to leave again, and there was no food in the inn, and if the snow went down, they might not be able to walk here.

And the supplies on their car have just been replenished, there are food, meat, eggs and vegetables, and they can hold on for a few days by themselves, if it is really at the end of the mountain and the water, these people may not be able to fight their idea of this thing, so let's take care of ourselves first.

After eating and returning to the room, they gathered in Chen Shijin's room again, and the three of them opened a room, and the old lady lived in the bed inside, Chen Shijin slept on the long couch, and Uncle Gui slept in the outer room.

A bench can be used to make a makeshift bed, which is better than laying on the floor.

It's not that they are reluctant to spend money to open an extra room, but there are only three rooms left in this inn.

The inn was too small, and there were only five rooms in total, and the other two were already occupied before they came, even the middle and lower rooms and the large bunks were also full.

are all people who were blocked here before, if it weren't for the high price of the house, those people would be reluctant, and it is estimated that there would be no left.

I just don't know if the people behind them will come, if they do, they will probably be trapped here, so it is better to stay in Yuexiu Town for a few more days.

Chen Shijin talked about their visit to the carpenter's shop, and also talked about the news they had heard by the way.

Sled boards are actually very easy to make, as long as they don't require wood, the carpenter can make them with just a glance.

It just so happens that the shops here have no other work these days, just do their work, and they can do it before tomorrow, so they can only stay here for one night.

The news I heard was that the surrounding villages were closed by snow, not to mention vegetables, and even food could not be harvested, and it was impossible to go to other places to buy goods and not get out, so the vegetable shops in the town were basically closed.

The grain store still has some stock, but they don't know when the snow will stop, and they don't dare to open it for sale, so they can only open the door for half a day every day, sell a little less every day, and maintain business, for fear that it will be sold out all at once, and then they will have to close the door.

In addition, this year's snow is the heaviest in decades, and many people have never experienced such a large amount of snow in their lives, nor have it rained for such a long time.

Relatives in the village said that they were ready to flee, especially on low ground, for fear of being buried alive in the snow.

Except for Qian Yan, several people listened with a solemn face, they didn't know that there was only heavy snow in this radius of dozens of miles, and it would not be so serious if they left here, so it was actually a wise choice for those people to leave.

As long as people are around, there is hope.
