Chapter 538: Natural and Man-made Disasters

The things were prepared last night, so Fu Ce didn't clean up anything and directly followed Sheng Xi with two followers and continued to move towards Mobei.

Fu Ce was really happy! His long-cherished wish came true for two consecutive days, and he was unable to suppress this excitement for two consecutive days. On the night of the next day, the excitement was finally pressed back by the cruelty of rushing. When he arrived at the station, he lay on the bed without even having enough food, staring at the bed tent with a look of no hope.

However, he knew that this was just the beginning.

In addition to protecting Fu Ce, one of the entourages also had another task, which was to persuade Fu Ce to go home at the right time when he couldn't hold on and not go to Mobei again.

When Fu's eldest son learned that Sheng Xi was about to move forward, he was sure that Fu Ce could not bear the hardship of moving forward, so he secretly gave the order to the entourage.

However, he underestimated his son's stubbornness, and immediately jumped out of bed when he heard the persuasion, glared at the entourage and said, "If I hear you say this next time, don't follow me again!"

The follower opened his mouth and swallowed back what he wanted to say when he saw Fu Ce's eyes.

If you don’t persuade me, don’t persuade me. It’s because the eldest son is too naive. Is the young master the kind of person who will give up easily? Even for the sake of face, he cannot easily compromise. He said that in the end, not only can he not let him retreat, but he might strengthen his confidence!

The follower's guess was right. Fu Ce originally wanted to persuade Shi Shengxi if he could rush to take a break for two days. As a result, he immediately ate this idea and ate it directly into his stomach.

What should I take a break? Sheng Xi is still a girl's house, but he is a real man. If even a woman can't stand it, then he won't live!

From Luojing to Mobeitan River Guard, it took more than 20 days to reach the normal speed. Sheng Xi and his team rushed to the scene, which reduced the time by nearly half. Therefore, twelve days later, the group did not encounter any obstacles on the road, and finally reached the next ward closest to the Tanhe Guard, Hexi Guard.

"According to the speed before, we will definitely reach the Danhewei before the sun is noon tomorrow." Pinglou looked at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar city tower not far away, and turned to Sheng Xi and said.

At this time, the group was standing on a hillside a few kilometers away from Hexi Wei, facing up, and could see the Hexi Wei at a glance.

Fu Ce kept yelling to join the army in Mobei, but this was the first time he stepped on his foot. Although his butt was almost eight-petal and his inner thighs were so sharp that he was so sharp that he came to this place as he wished. If Sheng Xi and others were afraid of embarrassing, he would have stood on the hillside and shouted loudly.

After hearing Pinglou's words, he couldn't help but look back at Sheng Xi, and saw that the other party was squinting his eyes and looking ahead, with no surprise or joy on his face.

Fu Ce thought, but fortunately he didn't shout.

Sheng Xi retracted her gaze and nodded. A gust of wind blew, and she wrapped the cotton coat she was wearing.

Although March is about to begin, the climate in the north of Mo this year is abnormal. It should be the time when everything is growing, but it is still covered with snow. The northward temperature is lower. Before coming, she had predicted that the temperature would drop, but she still didn't expect the temperature to be so abnormal.

Zhou Xi, Xin Ru, and Fu Ce's two entourages have already started to make rice. They will complete supplies every three days, so there is no shortage of food, and winter clothes are prepared in advance.

However, their success does not mean that everyone is like this. There are naturally people who go to Mobei like them on the road, but compared to the direction they are traveling, there are more people walking from the opposite direction to them from the border. Most of them are ordinary people in ragged clothes.

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable, and the people are displaced." Seeing Sheng Xi's eyes on the people who seemed to be fleeing, Pinglou said. Sheng Xi looked at him sideways and then took them back. She didn't say anything, but Li Changyu, who was beside her, sighed: "These people are so pitiful!"

At such a low temperature, some people only wear thin shirts, and those with better clothes can even wear cotton coats, but the cotton coats are all patched and patched, and even black cotton wool is exposed. This is the first time he has seen such a situation. Even if Wentong County, under his father's rule, is a low county, he rarely sees such situations.

However, Pinglou said: "They are already good."

Sheng Xi and Li Changyu turned their heads to look at him when they heard this. Pinglou pursed their lips and said for a moment: "You can take your family out, and some even have ox carts to sit on. This is a relatively wealthy family." In such low-end weather, people who are truly poor may not be frozen to death or starved to death.

Although Pinglou has not said the following words, Li Changyu has already reacted somewhat, let alone Sheng Xi had historical experience in his previous life.

The topic ended here, and the three of them didn't say anything until Xin Ru came over to call them.

After dinner, several people quickly packed up their things, put out the fire with earth, and then prepared to set off and go directly to Tanhewei.

That's right, they did not plan to enter Hexi Wei. There was no need to go to Tanhewei to cross Hexi Wei. There was also a road next to it to Tanhewei. And according to the map copied by Shen An and Sheng Xi, they would be able to reach the nearest station next to Tanhewei in another half a day. At that time, they would rest at the station for one night, and still go on a hurry on the second day to reach their destination.

This will reduce most of the time.

The closer he got to Tanhewei, the more excited Fu Ce was. He couldn't help but start talking nonsense halfway and directly got on Sheng Xi's carriage, rather than talking halfway.

Seeing that he was about to part with this person and Fu Ce had collected their food expenses for the second half, Sheng Xi then endured and didn't kick the person out of the car.

They arrived at the inn half an hour later than expected because it suddenly started to snow halfway through. Although they were wearing thick clothes, they were still riding on horseback for a long time and their bodies were a little overwhelmed. When they got off the inn, even the flat building was a little unbearable.

It's so fucking cold!

When the postmaster saw that someone came again, he hurriedly brought people forward to greet him, but when he saw so many of them, he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"To be honest, there are only large shops left in the inn, and the room is gone." The official secretary looked at them wearing nothing badly, especially Fu Ce, who was obviously the young master of a rich family, so he spoke very politely.

It is precisely because of this that he was in a difficult situation. In Datongpu, which young master is willing to squeeze into sleep with others? Although it is quite warm to squeeze into sleeping now.

Sure enough, when he finished speaking, the young master immediately spoke: "It's gone? Then you can help mediate! Just come out two rooms for us!"

The Yicheng's face immediately collapsed and he wanted to cry: "Young master, it's not that I don't want to mediate for you, yes, it's impossible to mediate this!"

If it were possible in the past, it might be possible to adjust it, but today it happened that the people who were staying in were people who he could not afford to offend. He didn't know the other party's background, and if he stabbed the hornet's nest, he would have to be in trouble at that time.

Fu Ce frowned when he heard this and wanted to speak, but he heard Sheng Xi say, "Cheng, Datongpu is OK, please help me arrange it."

"Sheng Xi..."

Sheng Xi glanced at Fu Ce: "After entering the military camp, it's a big bunk. Young Master Fu might as well start to adapt now!" After saying that, Sheng Xi took Xin Ru straight away and followed a friend.

Fu Ce: "..."
Chapter completed!
