Chapter 143 Is this world scientific?

After passing the Pingzhou border and heading south, the weather did not get warmer, but instead became colder and colder.

On this day, the sky was covered with clouds, and at dusk, it started to snow.

Salt-like snow fell from the sky and turned into water before it landed on the ground. The road began to become muddy, making walking on it wet and slippery.

Yang Liang was walking on the wet road without an umbrella, carrying a baggage on his shoulders.

After walking for a while, he raised his head and looked at the long road, feeling secretly worried.

Looking at this momentum, it is estimated that it will not stop for a while. If you can't find a place to stay at night, you will have to sleep in the wilderness.

Although camping was very popular in previous lives, it was very deadly in Pingzhou.

Not to mention the hungry wolves, tigers and leopards on winter nights, it is difficult to deal with this low temperature weather.

[Freeze to death] is not just an adjective in the north.

Yang Liang took a deep breath, there was nothing he could do about it, he was so eager to rush on the road that he missed the last place to stay.

I walked further to see if I could find a sheltered place and try to light a fire to get through the night.

The road became increasingly slippery, and the snow particles fell on the grass and trees. They had no time to melt and accumulated a thin layer.

Yang Liang rolled up his trouser legs. His boots were already soaked and his body was cold.

A vague outline appeared in front of him, like a building.

Yang Liang walked a few steps quickly, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He saw a house not far away, with a white lantern hanging in front of the house.

If there is a house to shelter from the wind and rain, it is much better than sleeping in the wilderness, and maybe there is a chance to mix a bowl of hot water to drink.

Yang Liang came to the house and saw that there were no other buildings around it, only one house standing alone.

Yang Liang shivered when the cold wind blew, and he quickly picked up the door knocker and knocked on the door.

"Is there someone..."

Yang Liang shouted several times, but no one responded, and the cold wind penetrated his body like a bug.

He took a few steps back. There was no plaque on the door, only a white lantern, and no lights.

Could it be an abandoned house that no one lives in?

Seeing that the front door was clean and tidy, with no weeds, it didn't look like it.

In addition to being a scholar who protects the country and the people, he is also a robber who flies over walls and walls.

It seems that the wall is not very high, so why not climb over and take a look at it yourself.

Yang Liang took two steps back and looked around to see where he could easily start.

"What are you doing?" At this moment, an old man's hoarse voice suddenly sounded from inside the door.

Yang Liang was startled and said hurriedly: "Old man, I am coming to Beijing to take the exam. I would like to stay here for a night. Can it be convenient?"

He was secretly glad in his heart. If the old man had remained silent for a moment, he would have started climbing over the wall.

Wouldn't that be embarrassing?

Everyone has a good impression of students rushing to take exams, and may be able to accommodate themselves for one night.

The old man seemed to be looking at Yang Liang through the crack in the door. Yang Liang didn't dare to show too much strength and acted weak.

"You wait a moment, I will report to the master."

"Excuse me, please."

Yang Liang stood in the doorway, and unknowingly a stick of incense time had passed. Just when he was getting a little discouraged, the black door suddenly opened from the inside.

A hunched old man stood at the door. He couldn't tell how old he was, his beard and hair were almost white.

"Come in, everyone in the family is asleep, please keep your voice down."

Yang Liang naturally couldn't stop thanking him.

The old man led him into the courtyard. There was an unused house next to the gate. There was some dust inside, but it did not affect living.

"You just stay here for now. Don't mind it. I'll go back to the back and bring you a set of bedding."

"Old man, don't bother me. I'm strong, so it'll be fine."

The old man looked back at his pale face and said, "Come on, you're not as strong as I am."

"Uh……"

Yang Liang was speechless for a moment, wondering if he had overacted.

He closed the doors and windows, sat on the bench, and took off his snow-soaked boots first, and then his whole body relaxed.

This journey has been really hard.

Hungry and full, if you miss Sutou, you can only sleep in the wilderness. At the same time, you have to be careful of bandits and wild beasts.

Yang Liang picked up the handy kettle and took a sip of wine to dispel the cold for the time being.

At this time, the old man came from outside, carrying a bedroll and several hot buns wrapped in cotton cloth.

"I went to the kitchen and took a look. These are the only steamed buns left. You should satisfy your stomach first."

Yang Liang hurriedly stood up and thanked the old man. He took out a bunch of copper coins from his body and made sure that the old man accepted them.

The old man waved his hand and said, "I rely on my parents at home and my friends when I go out. When it is inconvenient for everyone, I can just help."

Yang Liang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just kept saying thank you.

"I wonder what I should call the old man?"

The old man pointed at Tuoqi's back and said, "People here call me Laotuo. I can't even remember my original name.

Okay, it's getting late. You should go to bed early. I don't know when the snow will fall. "

When the old man left, he left an oil lamp in the house.

By the dim oil lamp, Yang Liang took out something from his book bag.

This is the mysterious stone carving.

Now the seven stone sculptures have been put together so tightly that there is no trace of the original cracks.

At this time, the seven dolls were also looking at him, with lifelike and different expressions.

Yang Liang frowned and thought about the purpose of this stone carving. He had been thinking about it all the way, but he couldn't figure it out.After the Yidaoxian gang came into contact with this stone sculpture, they all had a tendency to transform into monsters.

Will he also become a monster?

Squeak.

The door suddenly opened at this time. Yang Liang was startled and subconsciously covered the stone carvings on the table with his sleeves.

The hunchbacked old man stood at the door. He opened a pair of cloudy eyes and said, "Young man, I forgot one thing. If you are fine, you must not go to the backyard?"

"Ok?"

Yang Liang was startled and subconsciously wanted to ask what was in the backyard. At this time, the old man had already waved his hand, closed the door and left.

Yang Liang was left sitting on the bed confused. If the old man hadn't told him, he wouldn't have thought about the backyard at all.

Just wait until dawn tomorrow, then say goodbye and leave.

However, what the old man said aroused his curiosity.

Having said this, Yang Liang also felt that something was wrong with this house.

In the barren mountains and ridges, there is nothing around except a house.

Except for the hunchbacked old man, the house was quiet, and he saw no one else.

He began to observe the surrounding environment, sniffed subconsciously, walked to the window sill, stretched out his finger, and pressed the window pane hard.

There are some oil stains on the fingertips, and there is a smell of tung oil.

new.

This is obviously a recently built house.

Yang Liangliang was agitated and remembered the stories and legends he had read in his previous life:

A frail scholar who is rushing to take exams stays on the roadside and happens to meet a charming female ghost, and a touching and pathos story unfolds.

Yang Liang bent his arms and looked at his thick biceps. He didn't seem to be a weak scholar.

Where is the charming female ghost? Where can I find female ghosts? Why haven’t they come yet?
He shook his head, driving the random thoughts out of his mind.

Then, he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice rice transplanting.

A wave of heat melted in his lower abdomen, passing through his limbs like a warm current. The chill in his body was gradually dissipated, and Yang Liang felt relaxed.

After collecting the mysterious statues, he was rewarded with a destiny coin. Yang Liang spent some of the destiny coins to learn poetry and swordsmanship.

The only problem now is that he lacks a sword.

If he had time, he would take the time to practice this rice-planting technique. Yang Liang felt that his body was much stronger than before.

If not, walking in this ice and snow, I don’t know how much more hardship I would have to endure.

After a while, Yang Liang felt his body warm, and then fatigue gradually came over him.

Yang Liang fell on the bed and lay down with his clothes on, and gradually fell into sleep.

He seemed to dream that he won the first prize in the exam, rode a tall horse back to his hometown, and married Wang Huandi in a sedan chair.

On the wedding night, I walked into the bridal chamber. The bride was sitting on the bed with a hijab on her head.

Before she could take off the hijab, the bride suddenly stood up and threw herself at him.

The hijab on her head was blown open by the wind, and what was underneath was not Wang Huandi at all, but a strange female corpse.

She seemed to be pulled by something, and she struggled hard, but the force restraining her became stronger and stronger.

"Help, help..."

Yang Liang suddenly sat up from the bed, only to find a layer of cold sweat on his face.

"It turned out to be a dream."

Yang Liang sweated and turned to look out the window.

The last cry for help was so clear, it didn't sound like it came from a dream, but rather like it sounded in the backyard.

He shook his head and smiled. He thought about it day by day and dreamed about it at night. He had suffered too much on the road, so it was not surprising that he dreamed about some beautiful expectations at night.

But what happened to the strange female corpse?

According to scientific explanation, dreams are nothing more than random combinations of memory fragments.In other words, a person cannot dream of someone he has never met.

The problem is that this world is scientific?

He opened the window and found that not only had the snow not stopped, but it was getting heavier and heavier. It had turned from snow particles into snowflakes, and a thin layer had accumulated on the outside.

Yang Liang also woke up when he was blown by the cold wind.

He looked over the eaves and towards the backyard.

Do you want to explore for yourself?

He is already a veteran snitch, even if it is snowing, he can still walk in the snow without leaving a trace.

but……

The old man with a hunchback was kind-hearted. Not only did he let himself in, he also brought him bedding and steamed buns.

If he were to be a thief here, Yang Liang would feel that he was nothing.

He thought about it in his mind, but couldn't decide to pay attention. Then he thought, it was just a dream, why should he take it seriously.

At worst, I could explore this family's background during the day.

In the time before dawn, Yang Liang didn't feel sleepy, and the sky turned bright before he knew it.

Yang Liang opened the door and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. A thick layer of snow fell, and the eaves, tiles, and walls all turned white.

At this time, the hunchbacked old man was sweeping the snow with a broom. Yang Liang hurriedly snatched it away and said, "Old man, thank you for taking me in last night. Now that the snow has stopped, it's time for me to leave."

"It's snowing so heavily that the road has been cut off. Why don't you rest for another night and wait for the snow to melt before continuing on your way."

This was exactly what Yang Liang wanted. He still said politely: "I don't dare to trouble the old man anymore. I'm afraid it will delay the journey. I'll leave later."

"In this case, I won't keep you."
