Chapter 719: Attack
In the snowfields of the far north, there is no natural disaster that even the indigenous snow people will smell about, and it is none other than the blizzard that destroys everything after it is formed.
The storm and snow that covers the sky and the sun, once it rags over, even the incomparably solid ice will be scraped off, not to mention the flesh and blood of mortals, without shelter, it will be torn into pieces in an instant, which is also one of the main reasons for the harsh environment of the snow field.
When the snowstorm comes, the indigenous snow people will collectively take refuge in the cellars dug in the ground, like the Nanke Chamber of Commerce, which stays on the ground, but happens to have a mountain col to avoid danger, as the middle-aged man said, it is God's favor, dangerous and dangerous.
The sound of the wind and snow blowing outside the carriage became louder and louder, like countless ghosts roaring, and the noisy sound combined with the constantly shaking carriage made people inevitably creepy, and in the carriage in the center of the col, after the atmosphere solidified for a moment, the middle-aged man in charge of the Chamber of Commerce smiled lightly and responded:
"I am a businessman who took his wife and daughter to discuss life in Tianmen Pass, but when I was young, I learned a little bit of the ability to arrange troops with my father, who was a soldier before, and with God's favor, it has today's scale. ”
The middle-aged man's faint voice fell, sitting cross-legged in the carriage, the old Bei'an Wang Jiangyu, who was wearing a black shirt, reached out and took the kettle handed over by the girl Pearl, and said at the same time:
"The people of Tianmen Pass South City, who doesn't know the name of your shopkeeper, three in and three out of the Arctic Snow Field, without losing a person, this strength is not something that can be done by just luck, and at this time, the calmness in the face of the snowstorm also impressed the old man. ”
After finishing speaking, the old king of Bei'an raised the kettle in his hand, raised his head and poured it, only to feel a spicy rush down from his mouth, and then turned into a wave of heat to the limbs, and the whole body suddenly became warm.
Then a trace of surprise appeared in the eyes of the old king of Bei'an, and he said softly:
"In this kettle, put Yan pepper?"
After the old prince's voice with vicissitudes fell, the girl Pearl beside him, with some freckles on her face, suddenly showed a look of surprise, her beautiful eyes widened, and then she spoke:
"Old man Yu, you are really well-informed, this Yan pepper is a treasure in the palm of the leader of the Snow People Tribe, it only grows next to the snow hot springs, it is extremely precious, the taste is hot and energetic, a small one, you can provide heat in the extremely cold temperature, activity for several days, it is a treasure to cherish life, and our Chamber of Commerce also exchanged a lot of money for a few. ”
Speaking of this, Pearl's face showed a look of pride, being able to exchange for this snowfield treasure Yan Pepper also reflected the strength of this Nanke Chamber of Commerce from the side, and the relationship with the big tribe in the Snow People tribe is not ordinary, and then the girl Pearl stretched out her hand, patted the kettle handed back by the old man, and said again:
"So old man Yu, you can be regarded as a blessing, if it weren't for the snowstorm raging outside, no one can say what accidents would happen, so I was reluctant to take out half a hot pepper and mix it with water, it was a life-saving thing." ”
When the words fell, the girl Pearl opened her mouth and smiled at the old King Bei'an, revealing a mouthful of white and neat teeth, and then the middle-aged man behind him stretched out his hand, patted Pearl on the shoulder, and said softly:
"Pearl, in front of the old man Jade, don't be unreasonable, quickly hand over this kettle to the little brother over there. ”
The middle-aged man's voice fell, and the girl turned her gaze to a silent figure in the corner of the carriage.
Ever since the caravan rescued him on the side of the road, Pearl had never heard a word from the good-looking young man with his eyes closed, which made the girl sometimes wonder if it was the extremely cold temperature that made the boy freeze stupid.
But the kind-natured girl still climbed into the corner of the carriage, half-squatted and handed out the kettle in her hand, lowered her volume, and said softly:
"Come, take a sip and your body will warm up for at least a day. ”
The girl surrounded the carriage with a gentle voice, but the young man in front of him still had his eyes closed, his face was expressionless, and the young man's face still had purple and blue after being severely frostbitten, but his appearance was still handsome, suddenly, the young man opened his eyes and said directly:
"Something is coming. ”
This is the first time the boy has spoken, and his voice is still a little hoarse, and a little blurry, so the girl Pearl didn't really listen, and all her attention has been completely attracted by the young man's pupilless, can't see eyes, and involuntarily murmured:
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"I said, something's coming, it's fast!"
The young man in the corner of the carriage spoke again, this time he increased the volume, and the calm voice continued to echo throughout the carriage, and then the faces of Pearl and the middle-aged man changed greatly at the same time, because there was a strange sound in the continuous sound of wind and snow howling outside.
"Pearl, hold on quickly!"
The middle-aged man let out a roar, almost wanting to step forward to protect his daughter, but it was too late, the next breath, the entire carriage was hit by a huge force, the huge impact force directly shattered the load-bearing beam at the bottom of the carriage, the huge carriage hit the ground and bounced up, shaking fiercely, and at the same time specially reinforced the surface of the carriage, instantly emitted an overwhelming squeak.
Inside the carriage, the pearl, who was already half-squatting, fell directly to the ground in front of him because of this sudden huge impact, and if his head hit the ground, he would definitely be seriously injured!
Between the lightning and flint, a young right hand, stretched out from the side, directly wrapped around the girl's waist, pulling it back, and at this time, Pearl's forehead was only an inch away from the ground of the carriage.
At the same time, outside the carriage, everyone could not see the place, and suddenly in the void, scarlet thunder spread out in all directions like a spider web, and turned into countless thunder pythons, shrouding down, firmly fixing the crumbling carriage directly and firmly in place, not moving at all.
After a long time, the carriage stopped shaking, but the whole interior of the carriage was already in shambles.
The girl Pearl stood up upright, her pretty face was bright red after the blood surged, she gasped for breath, and then said in shock:
"What caused such a big tremor, could it be that a blizzard had rushed into the col?"
"If the tornado storm hits directly, I would have been torn to pieces by this time, so it shouldn't be, maybe it's a snow beast that happened to be blown into the mountain col, I'll go out and take a look, maybe I can still have a hot meal." ”
The middle-aged man in the carriage wrapped his heavy cotton clothes tightly, hesitated for a few breaths, opened the door of the carriage, and quickly got out.
"I'll go too!"
Pearl, the girl who had just come back to her senses, opened her mouth to drink the hot water soaked in the hot pepper in the kettle, wrapped the heavy cotton clothes on her body tightly, and her figure followed, and she also plunged headlong into the still raging wind and snow.
