Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times
Chapter 177 The Tomb without a Monument
Chapter 177 The Tomb without a Monument
Chang'an, the sun is shining brightly.
Xu Jiashu opened his eyes and rubbed them vigorously. He couldn't believe that the sun actually came out in Chang'an.
The Three Kingdoms era at the end of Han Dynasty was in the Little Ice Age, and the winter in the first year of Chuping was even more despairingly long.
Every time the simulation scene appeared, Xu Jiashu could only see the biting west wind blowing endlessly, and the heavy snow seemed to never stop.
No wonder everyone except Miss Lu stayed at home and was too lazy to go out. This knife-like weather was the most annoying thing for girls.
Looking at the long-lost sunshine, Xu Jiashu recalled the rejected proposal to enjoy the snow.
"Miss Diaochan," he walked to the door of the wing, knocked gently, and asked loudly: "It's sunny today, how about you go out for a walk with me?"
Hearing this, Diao Chan in the room tilted her head and thought for a while - only when she is alone will she show some of her original habits.
The reason why she rejected Xu Zimao last time was very simple. The snow was so thick and soft when stepped on that it was easy to fall or fall into a small pit and sprain one's feet. Physical contact was almost inevitable.
Moreover, the two of them were traveling together. If Xu Zimao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, she would not be able to get foreign help even if she started to make a fuss, let alone if his bestiality showed up...
But it's different now.
At this moment, the weather was so clear that she could see the light passing through the window paper even in the house. The reason for being afraid of the cold must be that it could no longer be used. In addition, Xu Zimao had proven his character many times, absolutely Don't do anything ridiculous in broad daylight.
Thinking about it this way, the most you can do is to be supported or held by him. This level of physical contact is not a big problem and is completely within the acceptable range.
In fact, even if the other party didn't invite him, she still planned to take the initiative to create some physical contact or something - the progress was too slow, and it would probably take years and months to wait for this fool to figure it out on his own. In order to smoothly advance the plan of fighting for favor and power, she had to take the initiative to give him some sweeteners. .
It doesn’t matter what the sweetness itself is, what’s important is that it sends out a signal, a signal of [availability].
Most of the time, Diao Chan doesn't need to take the initiative to release this signal. Just her natural appearance and figure are enough to make people flock to her and jump into her fish pond. But in the face of Xu Zimao, a slow and hateful person, Guys, she had to try casting the bait too.
If she doesn't take the bait again, she will doubt Xu Zimao's sexual orientation.
"Xu Langjun, wait a moment, I'll go after changing my clothes," Diao Chan said sweetly to the door, then turned around and picked out the shirt in the box.
With just one glance, she made her choice.
Diao Chan put on the lady's attire that Wang Yun planned to give her to Niu Fu, and the corners of her mouth raised inexplicably - this time it was not a carefully wrapped gift.
If her family hadn't been ruined by the move to the capital, she would have been dressed like this and going out with her friends, right?
Shaking her head and throwing this inexplicable thing away, Diao Chan finally put on a big cloak and went out with Xu Jiashu.
There are a large number of civilians who have been forced to move out of the inner city living in the outer city. These people do not have the luxury of staying in their houses to burn charcoal for heating as the noble family members do, and they are not even as good as homesteaders.
After being kicked out, he lived a life of inactivity and silence. No matter how cold the weather was, he had to go out to find work, otherwise he would not have enough food for the day.
Because of their presence, the thick snow on the ground was trampled tightly. It had been snowing before and it was not visible. When the sun came out, the soft layer on the surface melted, and the slippery layer underneath was exposed.
The road conditions were such that it was impossible to travel on horseback, so Xu Jiashu could only stand up and dismount.
"It's okay. It's better to travel on foot." Diao Chan looked like a caring and good sister. She stretched out her hand to Xu Jiashu and smiled coquettishly, "I can support Xu Langjun."
It was probably the first time in her life that she had taken such initiative. Her face was bright red and she had a different look than usual.
Two passers-by not far away were only looking at this dazzling girl. They accidentally bumped into each other and fell sprawled on the snow. However, they did not rush to stand up. They just lay there and giggled, sighing that they were really lucky. Yes, this world is worth it.
"Oh," Xu Jiashu just said oh and moved closer so that Diao Chan could support him.
He didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind, and he never even noticed the detail that Diao Chan would not take the initiative to have physical contact with him. Although he couldn't see the exact favorability level, at least it seemed that Diao Chan had always been a considerate and good sister. look.
Seeing Xu Zimao's reaction was so bland, for a moment, Diao Chan's professional fake smile froze, and she secretly sighed in her heart, there is really no place for beauty.
The two of them supported each other and walked for a while. They let go after they got out of the slippery section at the city gate and started walking side by side.
Xu Jiashu originally planned to take Diao Chan to the Weishui River. It has been snowing for such a long time, and the ice on the Weishui River is about several feet thick. Even if the sun comes out, skating will not be delayed.But soon, Xu Jiashu noticed that Diao Chan didn't seem to be going south of the city, so he calmly slowed down and followed her.
Not long after, the two came to an unknown place outside the city. Xu Jiashu looked at the footprints on the ground and found that no one else had been here except himself.
What you can see is just a slightly raised snow field.
Diao Chan in front lowered his head as if looking for something. Xu Jiashu was bored. Seeing that the snow on the ground was fluffy and fluffy, he took a stroll.
"You stepped on Han Lu!" Diao Chan reminded him aloud after identifying his secret base, looking back and noticing his naughty behavior.
Xu Jiashu lowered his head and looked at his feet. There was nothing but the footprints he had just stepped on. He wondered: "Who is Han Lu?"
"A dog."
"." Although he didn't know why the dog's name was Han Lu, Xu Jiashu still chose to take two steps back.
"You stepped on Fu Shou again!" Diao Chan pointed at his feet again.
"Fushou is also a dog!?"
"He's the neighbor's younger brother, he's very well-behaved!"
Diao Chan came over, squatted near Xu Jiashu and searched, and found a broken piece of pottery in the snow with Fu Shou's name engraved on it.
She raised her head, reached out and raised the pottery shard vigorously, as if to prove that she was not lying.
"Should the names of the man and the dog be changed?" Xu Jiashu bent down and saluted the deceased, still complaining to himself, "Why is the dog called Han Lu and the man called Fu Shou?"
"Fushou is his nickname." Diao Chan buried the pottery pieces in the snow again and replied without looking back: "If he was still alive, he should have a real name, but in this world, people and dogs also have It makes no difference.”
After the capital was moved, famine swept through the entire outer city, and people had to exchange everything for food until they had nothing and were reduced to starving corpses.
Even after Xu Jiashu and Gan Ning provided relief, only those who could survive the early stages of the famine and young adults were lucky enough to survive.
Even Diao Chan's father spent all his money first, and then had no choice but to send his daughter to Situ's Mansion to save grain, and only then was he recruited by Gan Ning to work as an accountant in Jinfan Ranger.
The strong will always be strong, and the weak will perish. The world is dominated by the Matthew Effect all the time, but when a disaster occurs, it will show itself in a more straightforward and cruel way.
This is the place where those who died of hunger were buried. Diao Chan marked everything she knew so that she could return here in the future.
Judging from the vast expanse of white on the ground, less than a year has passed and these people and objects have been forgotten by the living people.
Who would have thought that the pottery fragments carved by Diao Chan would become the only evidence of their existence.
Xu Jiashu put away his leisurely thoughts of traveling and followed Diao Chan to visit these tombs without monuments.
He finally understood why Diao Chan came here, and why she was so cold and rational at a young age - she had a secret base, a mass grave where everything she had ever known was buried.
"Everyone is going to die, and I'm going to be lying here too."
She patted the snow flakes on her hands and stood up.
"Xu Langjun, let's go somewhere else to bask in the sun. It's a bit cold here. It's not a place for a noble person like you."
After leaving these words, Diao Chan turned around and left.
