Reborn peasant girl

Chapter 106 the Road Is Frozen to Death

The world in winter is always monotonous and pure. If not for the shadowy outline of the village in the distance, the best old pimps would have lost their way.

It is a hard job to travel in such weather. Because even if there is no snow, the north wind is always mischievously blowing the snow particles that do not belong to the group, to the neck of the people to drink, to the face of the hit, holding the eyebrows and beard into frost.

Not to mention tens of miles, even if they came down from ten miles, they would freeze people.

However, lin bao, who was also driving the car, didn' t have these concerns. He even felt a little warm and quietly lifted the dog's fur hat up to reveal his full forehead.

After leaving yesterday morning, Jiao Jiao put a hot bag into his arms. He didn't know what was in the bag. There was a sound of water, but it wouldn't spill. However, it could only be heated for another two hours before it slowly cooled down. At this time, Jiao Jiao would reach out and take it in. However, after a while, it would be hot again.

With a heater in his arms and a thick blanket around him, it was no wonder he was about to flip his hat.

Even so, Jiao Jiao was worried that his brother would be cold and asked from time to time," brother, would you like to come in and have a sip of hot water?" "

"No, no, we'll be there in ten more miles. "

Lin bao quickly refused, thinking that if he met an outsider, he would quickly send the blanket and water bag into the shed. It doesn't matter if he freezes for a while. Don't get in the eye of others and cause trouble for his sister.

When Jiao Jiao was about to speak, the plow seemed to have landed on something hard. It suddenly jolted heavily and almost knocked over the hot teapot in the car.

Lin bao managed to stabilize the horse and turned his head to look, but a hand was exposed in the snow!

It turned out that it wasn' t a stone that had been pushed over just now, but a dead person!

"Grandpa, someone died of cold on the road! "

He quickly shouted in the car. As expected, the old man instructed," stop the car and go down to take a look." In such weather, it was possible that someone on the road had been killed. "

The moment the horse stopped climbing the plow, the old man opened the door and jumped down. Jiao Jiao was curious and wanted to follow, but lin bao pushed him back." Don' t be scared. Just sit in the car. "

The old man turned around and shouted," the wind is too strong and it's too cold. Jiao Jiao, don't come down! "

Jiao Jiao stuck out her tongue. Although she was still curious, she did not dare to disobey grandfather and brother's orders.

However, she still tried her best to get her head out of the window. In the end, she saw lin bao pull out a tall and sturdy figure from the snow. She did not know how long it had been freezing, but her entire body was purple and terrifying. She immediately retracted her head in shock and was no longer curious.

The old man had come down from the battlefield and the dead had seen countless people. Naturally, there was no fear in his eyes. He frowned and looked at her for a long time before saying," this man's clothes are somewhat like a hoodie, his hair is curly, his eyes are deep, and his nose is high. Why does he look like a foreigner?" "

For the first time, lin bao couldn' t help but step back and ask," grandfather, what should we do? It's freezing, and you can't help bury it. "

The old man looked over and saw that shadow one was looking like a temple not far away, so he said," it's not good for him to stay frozen on the road. After tying it to the car, go over there first. If you can bury it, help bury it. "

"Well, grandpa. "

Lin baozhuang took the courage to tie the passerby to the horse after climbing the plow, and then rushed the old horse to the broken temple.

Sure enough, there was no sign of people in the broken temple. Perhaps it was because there were incense fires in the summer, and the temple was not broken. There was even a courtyard behind the temple, which covered most of the snow.

After walking for a while, the old man picked up the firewood in the back corner of the temple, then took half a pot of charcoal from the car and lit four bonfires. Soon the frozen ground became damp.

Lin bao searched everywhere and got a pick and a small shovel. The two of them moved a pile of bonfires and dug a few picks. After working for more than two hours, they finally dug a two-foot-deep pit.

Old master lin took the blanket from the car and wanted to use it as a coffin to bury a passerby. In the end, the corpse of the passerby might have been roasted by the fire for so long, but it had also melted a little. A brand had fallen out of his clothes. It was brass and had the words" sea guest" engraved on the front. On the back was a sea sky map. The workmanship was exquisite.

Lin bao picked it up and said in surprise," grandfather, this person may really have come from overseas. Look at this sign. It has a picture of the sea! "

Elder lin took it over and looked at it before saying," stay here. If this person's family or friends find it in the future, it' ll be considered as a token. "

Jiao Jiao came up to him and saw that the sign liked it, so he snatched it away." Grandpa, I'll take care of it. I promise I won't lose it." "

As she spoke, she threw the sign away.

The old man doted on his granddaughter and refused to give the moon the stars, let alone a brand. So he smiled and didn' t say anything.

But lin bao added," this man's clothes are a bit tattered. I look like he's the kind of person who travels everywhere. No one will come looking for him." "

The old man waved his hand and bent down to continue wrapping the blanket around the passerby and putting it into the pit. At last, he said in a low voice," no matter who it is, it's still a poor man who lost his life in a foreign country. "

Lin bao thought of the family's usual peace and happiness, and then looked at this person alone, frozen to death by the roadside, if they did not accidentally encounter, afraid to wait until the spring snow melt will be discovered. This comparison was indeed too pitiful.

The grandfather and grandson worked together and soon filled up the hole with a small mound of dirt.

The old man found a wooden token and engraved a few words into it. Jiao Jiao also ran to the car and found a piece of oil paper. He placed it in front of the grave and offered a few pieces of snacks and a handful of red dates.

The three of them saluted and saw that it wasn' t early, so they hurriedly got into the car and rushed to the liu family's post.

Outside the liu family manor, it was unknown when or when someone planted a willow tree. It was cold in winter and the leaves of the willow were all gone. Only the sparse branches were swaying in the wind.

Lin ping pulled his neck and looked at the road in the distance for the umpteenth time. It was dark and snowy, so he naturally couldn' t see anything. So, he gathered his collar in disappointment and rubbed his flushed face, ready to go home.

No, it's not home. It's a master's house.

Although the master didn' t speak much and taught him harshly, it wasn' t that he didn' t dislike him for treating him sincerely. However, every time he ate, he couldn' t help but miss the big table at home, the hot food, the noisy brothers, the serious grandfather, the loving grandmother ...

When they were sleeping, they couldn' t hear their brothers grinding their teeth and talking in their dreams.

Also, little sister, she was always talking about him like a little adult, but she suddenly couldn' t hear him. Her heart felt empty and sad ...

It had been more than a month since his brothers last sent food. There was not much food left in the house. He knew that his aunt, who had been hired to cook, would steal some food every day, but he couldn' t tell the master. Fortunately, he kept the candies that his little sister had prepared for him.

But two a day, and now there are only 35 alone.
