Before entering the boundary of Qiuping County, Wen Jinrui and Junping were frightened by the scenes around them. In front of them, there should be snow-white land. On the hills, there are many holes. The mud head, which is more solid than iron, was dug out one by one, leaving only the residual weed debris.
If it's just like this, it's not enough to scare them. What's more terrible is still behind them. All the trees that you can see are already bare, let alone some trees with green leaves in winter, those that have already dried up, and the bark is gone.
Looking at the vast expanse of white, it is more lonely and desolate. It makes people feel sad and sad, but also shocking!
Here, the snow on the ground began to thicken up, the horse's hooves fell is lost, see this situation, Wen Jinrui had to give up the idea of dismounting to check, continue to take Junping toward.
Along the way, both of them fell into silence, and Wen Jinrui's face became more and more ugly, because the more he went forward, the more tragic the situation became. Before, those trees had no bark, but behind them, even some relatively tender branches and leaves were gone, and the smaller trees were even stopped. Only a small part of them were barely exposed The snow outside.
"This It's not all local people How about food? "
Although it was incredible, even unimaginable, his intuition told Junping that what he had guessed was probably true.
Wen Jinrui, who is frowning, has a cold face and nods gently, but he doesn't speak.
Growing up in a military camp, he has long been familiar with eating grass roots and bark, especially when he was in trouble during the March.
But even so, Wen Jinrui has never seen such a miserable situation as before. It's more than eating grass roots and bark. Those still small trees are eaten, only one root is left. It's still snowy and frozen. I'm afraid the real situation is even more miserable and unimaginable than what they see!
When he came to a hill which was not too high under the cover of ice and snow, Wen Jinrui stopped to look around, then his eyes suddenly tightened, and then he rode away.
After noticing Wen Jinrui's action, Jun Ping turns around and looks at him. Then he looks cold and follows him.
Even though she didn't want to believe it all the way, Wen Jinrui couldn't help floating a strong sense of killing and grief on her face when she really got to the front and back of heel.
In front of him, a relatively tender branch had been broken and taken away. There was only one tree trunk which was more than one person tall. Just below the waist, a woman was trapped in the ice and snow, and only half of her body was leaning on the tree. The woman's body had already frozen into ice, and she tried desperately to tear off a small piece of bark which was still on the tree with one hand, while the other was lying on the tree A bracelet in front of the chest, as if holding something.
The woman's body is already frozen, if at this time a little hard, I'm afraid it will be broken, so Wen Jinrui carefully looked into her arms, it was found that she was holding a baby!
Although it was also frozen, but the baby's face is still obvious to form ice beads of tears, small mouth open, as if very hungry to eat something to eat in general.
Seeing this, Wen Jinrui's pent up anger finally broke out. He hit the tree beside him with one blow, leaving only the tree trunk broken. His eyes looked at the mother and son who died of cold and hunger. His strong intention to kill even made him suffer from countless battles. It was a cold war.
"These animals! It's time to cut a thousand pieces! "
After sipping his lips, Junping didn't answer at last. Although he was also very angry in his heart, he was just a servant, and could do nothing but look at him.
"Bury her."
A moment later, in the cold wind, Wen Jinrui finally calmed down his anger, and then whispered.
"Buried? It's snowy How to bury it? " It's not that Junping doesn't want to bury it. It's just that he doesn't know how thick the snow is. The key land is frozen harder than iron. Even if he cuts off his sword, he won't be able to dig a hole.
Smell speech, Wen Jinrui looked at him one eye, didn't speak but oneself squat down. He carefully cleaned out the tree trunk in front of the woman, then slowly flattened her in the snow, piled up some ice and snow, buried it, and then compacted the ice and snow with internal force.
Although the current situation does not allow her to live in peace, at least she should not be allowed to die in the wilderness. She has already died miserably. If she is eaten by wild animals, even if it has nothing to do with him, Wen Jinrui will feel uneasy.
Looking at Wen Jinrui quietly doing all this, Junping's eyes flashed a touch of complexity, but then also quickly help.
After burying the mother and son and confirming that the hardness of the ice and snow would not attract wild animals, Wen Jinrui turned over and got on the horse again, looked at them and said, "let's go."
They went on their way in silence. They were very heavy in their hearts. Although they had known about the snow disaster in intelligence, they didn't expect it to be so serious. Here, Wen Jinrui knew why the riot happened.In this way, I don't know how long it took, Qiuping County finally appeared in front of me. Wen Jinrui took a deep breath and tried to make herself look calm. But the next moment, before they entered Qiuping County, they were stopped again.
"Someone's coming."
If put in peacetime, it must be a voice and emotion and people can't help but guard against the cry, but at this time it seems to be breathless and powerless, but it seems to see the meaning of hope is very obvious.
"Sir, please give me something to eat..."
"I haven't eaten for several days. Please do me a favor..."
With the sound, there is still a distance from the city gate. The people who are holding the ice and snow are looking at Wen Jinrui and Junping. They are slightly stunned, as if they didn't expect that someone would come at this time. Then they stagger forward to surround them and constantly beg.
Looking at the crowd around them, the listless eyes seem to see hope, but deep in the eyes is already numb despair. Wen Jinrui's heart is trembling, and he hasn't opened his mouth yet. On one side, Jun Ping has already taken out the wallet with silver from his arms and thrown it to the crowd.
