Xiqu City is located in the southwest of the mainland, close to the Quyuan Sea. From a geographical analysis, this place should have a subtropical ocean climate, but Xiqu City has obviously subverted this common sense. Every winter, from the Quyuan Sea
The cold current that blows over will directly drag the temperature in Xiqu City from more than ten degrees to several degrees below zero or even more than ten degrees. Since the air in Xiqu City is humid and has sufficient moisture, every drop in temperature must be accompanied by a
There was heavy snowfall, and the mountains and fields were covered with pure silver.
This kind of cold wave is intermittent, and each cold wave lasts for a short time, ranging from three to five days to two or three days. When the cold wave recedes, the temperature will quickly rise to more than ten degrees, and the snow will accumulate rapidly.
The weather melts, creating a beautiful scene of bright spring sunshine. But when the next cold wave comes, the temperature will instantly drop to below zero.
This weird climate starts in late November and ends at the end of December every year, lasting for more than a month, covering the entire west coast of Quzhen Country.
Of course, a temperature of more than ten degrees below zero is not as severe as the severe cold in the northeastern part of the mainland, but what is terrible is that this sudden change in temperature is destructive to animals, plants, and humans. The vegetation on the entire west coast of Quzhen Country is different from other places.
Quite different. At the end of autumn, these plants with different shapes in summer will all change into slender leaves, as if they change from a broad-leaved forest to a coniferous forest in an instant.
The first snowfall of this year in Xiqu City was very heavy. From the early morning of November 25th to 4 o'clock in the morning on the 26th, the snow was up to people's knees. The entire Xiqu City could be seen at a glance.
, all white.
Wrapped in silver makeup, this beautiful scenery is unique to Xiqu City. According to many literati and travelers, this beautiful scenery is a gift from God and a visual feast.
However, this snow was a disaster for Wuma Xi at this time.
His injuries were extremely serious, especially the broken left arm. Originally, he was capable of handling this kind of injury himself, but the heavy snow covered all the herbs he needed, which made his medical skills useless. Moreover, he did not
Money means not being able to buy medicinal materials.
Now the broken arm has been straightened and fixed, and it is hung on the chest with a cloth strap. But without the assistance of medicinal materials, God knows what kind of trend the wound will develop under the heavy bandage.
Since last night, Wu Maxi can clearly feel the heat in her left forearm, which is a sign of inflammation. She also feels a little dizzy in her head, which is a sign of fever. This sign becomes more and more serious as time goes by.
Seriously, by morning, his body was so tired that it was difficult to stand still.
Wuma Xi hid under the eaves of a dilapidated room, stroking a stone strip as thick as a finger in her hand.
This stone strip was found inside Zhao Tieban's clothes, three stones.
This stone bar was engraved with four small seal characters of "Xia Ye Ying Yu". From the appearance alone, Wu Ma Xi couldn't tell what it was, but it was the only gain he got in exchange for 350 gold coins. Although
I didn't find any use for it, but I kept it anyway.
He tightened the animal skin tightly around his body, faced the east, and bathed in the long-lost sunshine.
The golden sunshine shines on the snow all over the city, and the light it emits is dazzling. This scene is called Xiqu Morning Makeup, and is known as the first of the ten scenic spots in Quzhen. However, this kind of beauty, Wuma Xi
But he didn't have the ability to bear it at all. All he could do was try to find some place facing the sun and out of the wind to save every ounce of heat in his body.
No matter how picturesque the city is, he does not want it to become his own tomb.
The snow has stopped, and the warm wind will soon visit the city again, and its own vitality will come with the warm wind.
There are already some morning people on the street. The beautiful snow and bright sunshine give people a bright mood.
The famous narration poet Lu She once said that the people in Xiqu City are wild and wanton, living an indulgent and unrestrained life, as if they are living the end of the world every day.
The beautiful scenery of Xiqu Morning Makeup dilutes a bit of end-of-the-world indulgence, but gives people a kind of carnival like rebirth at the end of the world. Perhaps for the people of Xiqu City, only in such a beautiful morning, laughter is naturally beautiful
, and not as exaggerated and weird as the old owl night horn.
But there was still disharmony. A drunk man came from the street carrying a bottle of wine. After walking half a street, he walked crookedly towards a broken wall on the street. Wu Maxi thought he was drunk and lost his direction.
Guess, it turned out not to be the case. The drunk man walked to the wall, held the wall with one hand, took out the dick with the other, and started peeing.
Ten minutes after the drunkard left, the door of Qingque Inn on the street opened, and a beautiful girl walked out. She was wearing a white fur coat and a white fur hat, covering her nose and mouth with her hands,
Standing there, the whole person seemed to be integrated with the beautiful scenery of Xiqu's morning makeup. The snow reflected her face, with a hint of pink in the flawless whiteness, which was even more beautiful than the colorful snow scene.
Although she was wearing thick furs, her waistline still showed the slenderness and beauty of her figure. As she walked towards the street with thin steps, Wu Maxi noticed that her calves in pink leather boots were as deer-like.
It is light and agile, and the series of footprints left behind are like blossoming lotus flowers.
She wore a string of bells on her wrist, which kept jingling as she walked.
Throughout the southwestern region of the continent, the dressing style pays more attention to accessories, especially for girls. The whole body is in pieces. When standing against the wind, there is a string of human-shaped wind chimes. This girl only wears a string of bells on her hands, which is already relatively beautiful.
Simple.
There was a faint smile on her face, but she didn't know why her smile was so beautiful.
She was obviously shocked when she saw Wu Ma Xi. Wu Ma Xi, who was half lying under the eaves of the street, looked bleak, with a gray face and a mess all over. A broken arm hung on his chest.
It looked shabby and shabby when I went up there, which was incompatible with the beautiful scenery in the early morning.
The girl hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards Wuma Xi, but her face was already a little red. It was obvious that she was a shy girl.
She squatted down in front of Wu Ma Xi, and her soft voice seemed to have a slight tremor, "Are you... injured?"
Wuma Xi did not answer. She looked at the girl with sour eyes because of her fever. There was no expression on her face. The girl's hair was light golden, which seemed to be transparent in the sun. This slight trace was unnoticeable.
Beauty captured Wu Ma Xi's weak eyes.
The girl stretched out her beautiful little hand and waved it in front of his eyes. Wuma Xi's expression remained unchanged, and she didn't even blink, like a stone sculpture.
The girl pursed her lips lightly, then made several beautiful hand gestures with her hands in front of her chest, accompanied by a string of pleasant ringtones. Based on experience, Wu Ma Xi knew that she was weaving an artistic conception.
Artistic conception weaving has very strict requirements for rhythm, which is an extremely difficult bottleneck for beginners to overcome. Therefore, 1,600 years ago, the sage Zhu Fan of the artistic conception school proposed the use of oral formulas and hand formulas to assist
.
This method is very effective and makes it easier for beginners to get started. However, in the realm of realm cultivation, it has always been advocated to weave the realm without Jue. Jue is only an auxiliary when learning artistic conception for beginners, and experienced people will basically abandon the help of Jue.
Take Wu Ma Xi, for example, who has mastered the corpse-repelling spell for more than ten years without using any manual or oral formulas at all.
As soon as the girl finished the kneading technique, Wu Ma Xi felt something flowing through her body, just like the water washing over her body when taking a bath. However, the water can only wash away the surface of the body, but this thing seemed to cleanse her body.
It touches the human internal organs.
Wu Ma Xi didn't know what this artistic conception had done to her. She changed her face slightly and stared into the girl's eyes.
The girl did not notice the change in Wuma Xi's expression, but was frightened by the injuries in Wuma Xi's body and became a little flustered. "Oh, are you injured so badly?"
Wu Maxi felt relieved. What the girl was weaving must be a detection concept. There was still no expression on her face, but it seemed that the girl was not talking about him.
After a moment of panic, the girl calmed down and started knitting the artistic conception again. This time the artistic conception was more complicated, and she didn't finish it even after a long time. Judging from the girl's expression, it was obviously difficult for her to weave this artistic conception.
Wu Ma Xi could tell that she had no ill intentions toward him, and just watched her weave her artistic conception indifferently without interrupting.
The girl finally completed the last change of her hand skills, and pointed at Wuma Xi. Wuma Xi immediately felt refreshed, and all the cells in her body seemed to become active in an instant. Fatigue was swept away, and her organs were glowing.
Vitality.
The girl was still a little regretful and said softly: "It's a pity that I only know how to spread incense with kapok. If I learn how to make a long-lit lamp, I will definitely be able to cure your injury."
The ever-bright lamp the girl mentioned is briefly introduced in Lan Ruogu's "Illustrated Artistic Conception". It is the ultimate treatment method for practitioners in the realm of witchcraft and magic. The legend is that "the ever-bright lamp will not be extinguished, and the breath will be cut off and the life will not end."
Outstanding artistic conceptions like the Eternal Light Lantern have always been secretly taught and are simply inaccessible to ordinary people. But for this girl to be able to learn this artistic conception, she must be from a famous family.
Wu Ma Xi was a little envious, even jealous. She had worked hard for twelve years to attend the most inconspicuous artistic conception college. However, as of last night, this dream was completely shattered.
The injustice in the world is so profound, like the deepest chasm that no one can cross.
"The injury is so serious, why don't you go to the hospital?" the girl asked softly.
Hearing this, Wu Ma Xi suddenly felt a little resistant to her kindness.
Who wouldn't want to lie in a hospital with such an injury, but that is only a benefit for the rich. A girl like her who is well-dressed and well-fed can't understand the helplessness of the poor. When you are sick and injured, holding on to death is the first step for the poor.
A choice. Wu Ma Xi also knew that she was not deliberately sarcastic, but her heart still felt like needles pricking her. She glanced at her and lowered her eyelids without saying anything.
The girl wanted to persuade her again, but she heard a clear female voice coming from the left: "Ruyi, you damn girl, why didn't you call me when you came out?"
Turning around, he saw a girl in pink clothes trotting towards here, and not far behind her, followed a handsome and handsome young man.
Not as light as the girl in front of me.
The girl soon came to Wuma Xi.
If the girl named Ruyi was a delicate and beautiful narcissus, then the girl who came later was like a peach blossom that was infinitely beautiful.
It's a pity that the two beauties were standing less than three feet in front of her, but Wu Ma Xi didn't even bother to raise her eyes.
The girl took Ruyi's left hand and scolded: "We agreed to go to Qingwu Tower to see the snow scene together today, why didn't you call me?"
There was some grievance in Ruyi's words, and she said: "Sister Weiwei, I called you early in the morning, but you said you wanted to sleep!"
"Is there any?" Weiwei had some doubts on her face, and then she started to mess around, "Oh, I don't care, it's your fault anyway. Hurry up, you won't be able to see it when the snow melts." After that, she took Ruyi to the toilet.
To leave.
Ruyi couldn't resist her, and followed her for a few steps, but then turned back to Wu Maxi and said: "Um..., your injury is very serious. Remember to go to the hospital later, otherwise it will be very troublesome.
"How to call Wu Ma Xi is a very troublesome thing for her.
Wu Ma Xi was too lazy to reply, turned her head to the other side, raised her eyes, and saw the young man standing in the snow, smiling bitterly at the backs of the two women.
Wu Ma Xi retracted her gaze, lowered her eyes and sat quietly. After a while, she felt someone walking in front of her. Wu Ma Xi didn't bother to open her eyes. She just used her hearing to detect the movement of the person until a faint "ding" sound was heard.
This was the sound of gold coins, and Wu Ma Xi was very familiar with it. He opened his eyes with some doubts, and saw the young master's face less than two feet away from him, with a kind smile on his face.
The young master put the gold coin in Wu Ma Xi's hand and said in a gentle tone: "Friend, you should go to a medical clinic for your injury, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Wuma Xi was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, the young man had already stood up and was about to leave, leaving a gentle smile on Wuma Xi's face.
You can tell without looking that there should be more than ten gold coins in your hand, which is quite a lot.
Wuma Xi was somewhat resistant to this kind of help, but she thought twice and did not refuse. In any case, these dozen gold coins are indeed very important to him now. Without this money, his survival would be very difficult.
But his mood is still very contradictory.
It's not that he has never accepted other people's coins. In addition to his main job as a corpse exorcist, he has many side jobs, and begging is one of them. It's just that some of the gold coins today seem to be a little different from those that came from begging.
