Signing in to Datang: Rebellion at the beginning

Chapter 71
According to the information given by Li Ke, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs immediately cooperated and began to send people to search for the coal Li Ke mentioned in some mountains around the imperial capital.

Although I don't know much about coal, after all, Li Ke has described it relatively clearly, so it won't be too difficult to find and identify it.

After arranging this matter, Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief.

Either way, the odds of finding it are high.

Once found, to some extent, the problem of freezing to death in winter can be fundamentally solved.

Next, all he had to do was wait.

It's just that before he found it, he was still very worried about the people affected by the cold season.

So I decided to go to the places where some common people lived outside the city to see.

At the same time, we will also see if some officials have not acted under his policies.

This time, Li Ke brought Yu Mei Niang along with him and ten special forces soldiers.

After leaving the palace, Li Ke and Wu Meiniang took the carriage and headed directly out of the city.

After arriving outside the city, looking at the scene outside along the way, it was all white.

Passing through some villages, Li Ke would ask the special forces to drive in a carriage to have a look.

Some villages are basically built of wooden houses, which are not very airtight.

Although it is cooler in summer, it is extremely cold in winter.

After looking around, there is no snow on the houses of some families, which means that there should be a fire in this house, or a charcoal fire.

In this way, there is a certain temperature in the house, and the heat will rise, so it is difficult for snow to accumulate on the eaves.

But there are thick snow on the eaves of some houses.

This will not only make the house colder, but also dangerous.

Because the snow accumulation reaches a certain level, it may even collapse the eaves.

If this kind of thing happened, it would be very difficult for the family to survive.

After all, in this kind of winter, and it is snowing again, if the house or even the house is gone, it is impossible not to freeze to death.

After looking around in this way, there are blood accumulations on the eaves of many homes, which shows a problem. Most of these ordinary people cannot afford charcoal and firewood, or they are reluctant to do so.

Faced with such a scene, Li Ke couldn't help sighing.

Then he continued to lead the people towards other villages.

The farther away from the imperial capital, the more common it is for houses to have snow on them.

Even in a relatively distant county under the jurisdiction of the imperial capital, in some villages here, there is thick snow on the eaves of almost every household.

Some eaves have even collapsed.

Li Ke took Wu Meiniang to look closer, and found that in a collapsed wooden house in the village, almost all five members of a family froze to death inside, including a young boy in his teens.

The moment these corpses died, their clothes were slightly lifted.

This is a manifestation of freezing to death. When facing freezing to death, people generally have a hallucination of what the body shows.

It made them feel hot and dry, which is why they would tear their clothes apart even though they were about to freeze to death in such an extremely cold situation.

Looking at the tragic scene in the room, Li Ke felt uncomfortable, especially seeing the scene where the little boy was hugged by his parents but failed to escape the severe cold, which made Li Ke feel even more worried.

After a while of silence, Li Ke exited the house and asked his special forces to light a fire and set the wooden house on fire.

Bury them in this way, and at the same time, give them the last trace of warmth.

And there are several scenes like this in this remote village.

There was even a family, when Li Ke arrived with people.A six or seven-year-old girl was being hugged by the dead bodies of her parents.

It seems that before her parents died, she still wanted to keep her warm with her body...

As a result, they froze to death long ago, but the little girl still had a breath.

Li Ke immediately sent people forward to pull these cold corpses away.

The little girl was also dying.

Li Ke immediately took off his clothes and wrapped her around her body, took her back into the carriage, roasted her with the charcoal fire in the carriage, and helped her rub the skin on her body, so that she could recover from the cold as soon as possible. come over.

After half an hour passed, the young girl woke up leisurely.

She looked around in a daze, and said in a childish voice:
"This...here...is the fairyland my mother talked about... Sure enough, it won't be cold after arriving in the fairyland..."

That immature and trembling voice fell on Li Ke's heart like a heavy hammer, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Then he grabbed the little girl's little hand and said, "That's right, this is a fairyland. From now on, you won't have to feel any cold anymore."

The little girl smiled, she was innocent, maybe she didn't know that she almost froze to death.

I don't even know that my parents are dead.

Perhaps when her parents were about to freeze to death, she used the consoling lie about going to Wonderland to comfort the little girl.

Let her not feel fear in the cold winter, but have anticipation...

Thinking of this, Li Ke sighed.

Because scenes like this may be happening all over the country, or even around the world.

Therefore, it is urgent to find coal mines.
