People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 925
Pei Xingjian nodded, his face was still full of doubts, and he didn't know what happened to Brother Wang and Daniu, so it must have been difficult before.

Wang Xuance shaved his beard with a knife and said, "This heavy snow will last for a long time. According to the nature of the weather here, the heavy snow will last for at least a month. After this month, the snow mountain will be completely sealed. We will stay here for at least a month."

"One month..."

Pei Xingjian stopped heating the water, "So long?"

Wang Xuance nodded and said, "Don't worry, I brought a lot of food this time, enough for us to survive the heavy snow here."

As he spoke, Wang Xuance pointed to several carts covered with black cloth.

Pei Xingjian stepped forward and lifted the black cloth, revealing a cart full of potatoes.

There are also two carts of beef and mutton, and the next three carts are a lot of millet.

They are all millet from Guanzhong.

Pei Xingjian looked at these and said foolishly: "You did it this way."

Daniel smiled knowingly, "We have always kept in touch with Guanzhong. We know exactly what teachers we need. We already knew that it would be the snow season when you were stationed here. We have already started preparing for it."

Wang Xuance said: "It's freezing cold, cover the beef and mutton with snow, and it won't spoil even if it's freezing now."

Pei Xingjian nodded vigorously.

After taking a hot bath and cleaning his beard, Wang Xuance put on clean clothes and looked younger by several years.

Daniel said to Pei Xingjian: "Let's say it will take less than a month here. If you have nothing to do these days, you can study some knowledge with me."

Wang Xuance said lazily: "When we were in the snow mountain, Daniel studied things day and night."

Pei Xingjian looked at Wang Xuance, "What about Brother Wang?"

"Me, I slept for a month." Wang Xuance yawned and said, he felt much better after taking a hot bath, and fell asleep on the clean wooden shelf beside him.

Still curious in his heart, Pei Xingjian came to Wang Xuance's side and whispered, "Brother Wang, what have you guys done?"

Wang Xuance closed his eyes and said, "Do you know what I have experienced in the past two years?"

Pei Xingjian said: "I really want to know."

Wang Xuance said in a low voice: "In the past two years, I have experienced many things and understood many things. I have learned one thing. When encountering something you cannot understand, you should not think about anything and just close your eyes and go to sleep. Just fine."

"What?" Pei Xingjian didn't recover from his words for a while.

Thinking about asking again, Wang Xuance's snoring has already started.

Sitting by the bonfire, Pei Xingjian was full of doubts, and glanced at Daniel who was still marking the map.

It is true that there is nothing you can do if you are trapped in this snowy mountain.

It seems that there is only sleep.

Glancing at Wang Xuance again, Pei Xingjian asked himself in doubt, Brother Wang really slept in the snow mountain for a month?This is so much sleep.

It snowed heavily for seven consecutive days, and the mouth of the mountain pass was completely sealed by heavy snow.

Daniel sprinkled some salt on the potatoes and ate them.

"The weather here will always be very cold, and the snow may not melt by next spring." Wang Xuance said while eating a potato.

"Prepare more firewood. It must be kept burning day and night. We must send people to watch the fire every day so that the fire cannot be extinguished." Daniel whispered to Pei Xingjian.

Pei Xingjian took a notebook to record the words of Daniel and Wang Xuance.

To survive on the snow-capped mountains, you still have to ask these two experienced people.

Pei Xingjian wrote down his words and asked, "Why do you keep lighting the fire?"

Wang Xuance glanced at Daniel and explained: "The snow is about to stop. When the snow stops, the weather will be very cold. There will be no living things for thousands of miles on the snow-capped mountains. Many living things will be frozen to death, let alone people."

Pei Xingjian also glanced at Daniel, "Really?"

Wang Xuance nodded and said: "That was the big cold wave after the snow stopped. The wind stopped at that moment. A few people from the Western Regions who worked as coolies for us said that they were going to go out to relieve their hand. It was less than a cup of tea, and they were waiting for us to go out again. By then people were freezing to death.”

"The bonfire will be extinguished faster in this low temperature. It is the cold that can freeze people to death. We have never experienced this kind of cold in Guanzhong. You can feel it in these two days."

Daniel was still eating potatoes quietly, marking the map.

The camp was also very quiet, and everyone was huddled in tents to keep warm.

It's freezing cold now, especially on the ears and toes.

Pei Xingjian sat by the warm bonfire, and Xue Rengui found a lot of firewood from outside to burn.

There is an extra place in the camp to store firewood.

For the next two days, everyone was idle, and Daniel even began to teach the soldiers here how to do math problems.

"It's nothing to do, let these killers do these boring math problems." Xue Rengui said in a low voice.

Pei Xingjian was working on the geometry problem in his hand. The problem was created by a genius, and everyone who had nothing to do would discuss and solve the problem. This is one of the few ways to relieve boredom on the boring snow-capped mountains.

"It's actually quite interesting, Brother Xue, do you want to try it?" Pei Xingjian said.

Glancing at the topic written on the wooden board, there was also a headache-inducing graphic, Xue Rengui shook his head and walked away with a sigh, then lay down beside Wang Xuance and chose to sleep.

Finally the next day the heavy snow stopped, and Wang Xuance walked out of the camp to check the direction of the wind.

Pei Xingjian braved the cold and walked beside Wang Xuance and said, "How is it going?"

Wang Xuance took out a piece of wool and looked at the wool swaying in the wind, "It should be coming soon."

Pei Xingjian looked up at the gloomy sky, and then at Wang Xuance's dignified expression.

Suddenly Pei Xingjian felt the wind stop.

"Stopped?"

Wang Xuance took a handful of snow and sprinkled it high into the sky.

Pei Xingjian watched this scene and saw with his own eyes that the snow was not blown away by the wind.

"It's coming, hurry back." Wang Xuance said as he walked towards the camp.

Pei Xingjian also hurried to the camp.

When they came to the camp, Wang Xuance said loudly: "Raise the fire, don't let the fire go out."

As he said that, Wang Xuance sealed the mouth of the col with wooden boards.

The Jingyang guards, who had experienced this kind of thing long ago, immediately understood what was going to happen.

Hastily stepped forward, no matter whether it was stone or wood, the mouth of the col was sealed.

After the outside was sealed, Wang Xuance checked several times to see if there was a gap that was not sealed firmly.

Xue Rengui was still at a loss.

Daniel kept adding firewood to the campfire.

After a few breaths, a sudden chill hit, making people unconsciously approach the fire.

"Don't let the fire go out." Wang Xuance shouted again.

"It's so cold all of a sudden." Pei Xingjian said tremblingly and spit out white mist tremblingly from his mouth.

The flame was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and everyone kept adding wood.

There was a strange noise outside the camp, it sounded like wind, but it didn't look like wind.

Everyone looked up at the roof of the shack, and Pei Xingjian asked in a low voice, "What's the movement?"
