Chapter 8 8 Distress in the Snow
Ye Xiaobai's ears hurt so much at this time that he could only nod to show that he understood. He didn't expect that the tall and powerful guard in front of him had such a careful and gentle side. It seemed that General Shen Kun was very good at choosing people. What on earth was that Xu Jishu? Sneaking into his side?

"Brother Ajin, it's completely dark. I'm afraid we have to find a place to rest first and rush back tomorrow?" Dadong looked around and saw the vast expanse of white snow.

Ah Jin nodded, "We can't move fast in this wilderness with a carriage. Let's go to the nearby farmers' homes to have a look!"

"I know, Brother Ajin..." Dadong waved the reins.

"Drive, drive, drive..." The sound of horse hooves echoed in the empty snow at dusk.

After two sticks of incense, a scattered village finally appeared in front of them, with smoke swirling in the air.

"Brother! Brother Ajin, there is a village ahead!"

Ah Jin got out of the carriage and showed a tired smile,
"Great, the snow rabbit's body is starting to feel hot. Let's quickly find a farmer's home to settle it down. How can it bear this bumpy journey!"

Dadong responded and drove the carriage around the outside of the village. Due to the heavy snow, the farmers kept their doors closed and no one was there.

Dadong had no choice but to jump off the carriage and knock on the door from house to house. Unexpectedly, he knocked on several houses in succession. Some of them waved their hands and refused to receive them. Some even saw that they were foreigners or dressed as cavalrymen and "knocked" as soon as they opened the door. "The door was closed with a sound.

Dadong returned to the carriage dejectedly.

"Brother, what if they don't open the door?"

"Are you going to try again with this silver?" Ah Jin looked at the semi-conscious Snow Rabbit in his arms, feeling even more anxious.

Dadong took the silver and went to the last house in the village. Looking at the cold and faint light inside, Dadong straightened his clothes and mustered up the courage to walk over.

The low wooden door could not stop him originally, but the general said that the interests of the people are above all else, so he could only knock on the door lightly a few times.

"Excuse me? Is anyone there?"

After waiting for a while, a low hoarse voice came from the room,

"Come, come, who is it? It's so late?"

Dadong stood on tiptoe from the wooden door and saw a white-haired old man walking out slowly with a cane. He felt happy and shouted quickly,

"Uncle, uncle, we are passing by here. The wind and snow are too heavy and we can't go back. Can you stay here for a night?"

The old man opened the door, looked him up and down, and then looked at the black carriage behind him.

"Who are you? Since there is a carriage, why don't you leave?"

"Uncle, it's freezing and snowy, the horses are too cold, and the carriage can't go far in the snow. There are two of us, please help me~" As he spoke, Dadong stuffed the money in his hand.

The uncle looked at the money and pretended to refuse, "What money do you want to give me? We meet each other by fate. My surname is Li. You can come in, but there are few rooms in my house. I only have one room for you to live in."

Upon hearing this, the big stone in Dadong's heart finally fell to the ground. At least he, Brother Ajin, and Snow Rabbit no longer had to wander in the wind and snow, so he stuffed the silver into his arms with all his strength.
"Thank you, Uncle Li, as long as you have it, we won't pick it!"

"Come on, come on, come in and warm yourself up!" Dadong greeted Ah Jin, who held the snow rabbit in his arms. After a while, the two of them and the rabbit were already crowded into the small, narrow room.

At this time, Ye Xiaobai's whole head was feeling dizzy. She knew that she had been injured on her ear, and she had been exposed to wind and cold in the snow and ice. According to modern theory, the inflammation of the wound caused the fever... But in this book Where in the world are anti-inflammatories available?

Ah Jin looked at the sleepy snowshoe rabbit and felt very anxious. If there were three snowshoe rabbits, three long and two short, how would the general explain it? Moreover, such a rare breed might be difficult to find next time. "Quick, Dadong, go find some branches or something to make a fire. The house will be warmer... I came out in a hurry this time, and the gold wound medicine I brought with me has also been used up. What should I do?"

Hearing the anxious voices of the two people, Ye Xiaobai felt cold. Could it be that he was going to confess to being here now?Forget it……

It's better to die next to the two of them than to die next to King Fu. At least he doesn't have to have his blood drawn every day. But I don't know if I can see Shen Kun again before I die?
Just when the two and one rabbit were anxious,
"Dong dong dong~" There was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Gentlemen, there is hot water and white porridge here. If you don't mind, feel free to eat some."

Dadong opened the door and took it over, and said sincerely,

"Thank you, Uncle Li, we will come back to thank you in the future!"

Uncle Li waved his hand and said hoarsely, "No, no, the money you gave me is enough for me to spend for a while! I'll go to bed first, and you guys can eat slowly!"

"Brother Ajin, please eat something first to fill your stomach."

"Okay, let's go together, let's feed it some more carrots!"

The two of them finished the porridge in front of them in a few mouthfuls, and then gently placed the carrots they had obtained from the uncle in front of Snow Rabbit, "Snow Rabbit, you should eat some too, we have to go on the road tomorrow?"

Ye Xiaobai shook his head. He was so dizzy that he didn't want to eat at all, and he always wanted to hear someone's voice just now. However, his body was injured, and it seemed that his mind-reading skills had also failed...

Seeing the snow rabbit motionless, Dadong sat down on the wooden bench and asked, "Brother, what should we do?"

Ah Jin couldn't hide his anxiety,

"There is no other way. Give me some water. We can only rush back to the house as soon as possible tomorrow to find the doctor!"

"Yeah, okay!" Dadong nodded.

"Brother, what should I do about Mr. Xu? Do you want to keep him on the carriage?"

"It's okay, the carriage is also in the yard. He is tied up with ropes and can't escape!" Ajin nodded. There was only one room, so it was impossible for him to come in and sleep together.

After discussing, the two people arranged the snow rabbit on the warm kang in the innermost corner, and the two of them lay fully clothed by the window, and gradually fell asleep in the wind and snow on the cold night.

"Hoo hoo...

woohoo hoo...

bang bang...

bang bang...

Banglang..."

The wind and snow got worse in the middle of the night, and the doors and windows of the cabin were blown loudly. Ye Xiaobai was already in a daze due to illness, and he couldn't sleep even more when he heard the noise from the doors and windows. He simply got up and gently opened the door through the crack. Look outside.

It doesn't matter at this glance. In the blowing wind and snow, a figure is pulling the carriage hard. Xu Jishu was the only one in the carriage. The wind and snow were so strong that Ye Xiaobai couldn't see clearly what was going on. Anyway, he might Just tell him here, he simply made up his mind, jumped up on all fours, and jumped out of the window that was blown open by the wind.
