Chapter 468 I protect you
"good."
Wang Jingzhi nodded and held his wife in his arms.
He is lucky to have such a wonderful wife.
On the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, it snowed heavily.
There was deathly silence in Yancheng, except for a few lanterns in the streets swaying in the snow.
The bright moon hangs high, and the bright moonlight shines on the ground, printing white light on the snow.
In the light, two figures sneaked through the streets and alleys, and finally stopped at the city gate.
"Is this really useful?"
"Try it."
The two of them were talking, and one of them took out an oil paper bag from his arms. When the oil paper bag was opened, a scent of cumin suddenly spread in the air.
"What if he doesn't come?"
"If he doesn't come, we'll just have a midnight snack."
"good."
The two huddled aside and looked at the roasted chicken quietly.
After a quarter of an hour, there was still no movement. Nanzhi's feet were a little numb, so he slowly moved and leaned on Shen Wenchen.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Wenchen skillfully hugged the person and put the weight of her body on his, and then asked while warming her hands.
"My feet are numb."
Nanzhi whispered.
"Then let's go back first?"
"No, wait any longer." Nanzhi shook his head and only moved his body closer to Shen Wenchen.
"Then wait another quarter of an hour. If there's still no movement, let's go back. How about that?"
Shen Wenchen laughed a little and just rubbed her hands to keep her warm.
"good."
Nanzhi responded, his eyes continuing to stare at the roast chicken in the city gate tower.
A quarter of an hour passed quietly, and snow had piled up on the couple's bodies. Seeing the roasted chicken turn from hot to cold, and now even frozen into a pile, Nanzhi was discouraged.
When Yuan Bao came to Kyoto to buy ginseng, it was the old man who brought it to him. When he returned, he only found it with a roast chicken.
She thought it would be of some use this time.
This experience today made her very curious.
When Di Ling told him that a new way of heaven had been born in this world, the old man said that this world was collapsing due to unstable luck and dissipation of spiritual energy, but he also told them that there was still a glimmer of hope. However, Senior Mingqin's system said that this world There is no solution.
A series of messages came down, and she didn't know which one to believe.
After all, the current situation is completely different from the plot he watched back then.
If she didn't know how to find Xiao He, she would really want him to come out and explain.
"Forget it, let's go back quickly." Shen Wenchen helped her up, rubbed her calves again, and then quickly went over to get the roast chicken.
Regardless of whether he is true or not, he believes that as long as everyone works together, we can get through it.
Although there is not much food and grass in the city now, people still have surplus food in their homes.
In addition, so many people left yesterday, so the city can survive a little longer no matter what.
They don't have the ability to fight against the sky, so they can only rely on themselves to do their best.
"Um."
Nanzhi felt that his face was a little stiff, and the tip of his nose was even red from the cold. At this moment, he could only rely on Shen Wenchen, and the two of them moved home bit by bit.
This winter is really cold.
After the two left, they left deep and shallow footprints on the ground. When the snow covered them again, a small black shadow got in through the gap in the city gate.
The first day of the new year should be a lively day, because of what happened the day before yesterday, there were few people walking around in the city for a while.
Occasionally, a few people walked by on the road, and they were all in a hurry, eager to take three steps at a time.
Because Chi Sheng brought back herbs, the village outside the city became a little lively.
The patients who had been suffering from high fever began to wake up one after another. Although their faces were a little ugly, their consciousness was clearer.
"Thank you so much, Master! Thank you so much, Master!"
When Aunt Li saw that her son finally woke up, she knelt on the ground with a plop.
She only has her son as a relative now. If something happens to him again, there will be no point in living for her!
"Aunt Li, get up quickly. If it weren't for you to take care of them, they wouldn't be able to survive now."
Chi Sheng couldn't see her looking like this, so he hurriedly helped her up.
"And these days, the second master is diagnosing and brewing medicines. These herbs are brought back by everyone. How can I take all the credit alone? Aunt Li, please wipe your tears quickly, and you have to Making medicine."
"Eh, eh." Aunt Li quickly raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, then nodded with a smile.
Seeing that she stopped crying and continued working, Chi Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Asheng."
Ming Qin held Yuan Bao, who was still a little sleepy, and said with a smile.
She is very beautiful, and now that she has found her most important person, the smile on her face is more genuine. Just seeing her from a distance can make people dizzy.
"Why did you get up so early?"
Chi Sheng was still not used to it, so he subconsciously reached out to pick up Yuan Bao.
But he didn't expect the little girl to look like she hadn't woken up. When she saw that he was about to hug her, her eyes widened immediately.
"I want my grandma to hug me."
The little girl tried her best to keep her eyes wide open, and reached out to ask Mingqin to hug her.
Seeing how cute her daughter was, Mingqin naturally couldn't refuse, so she bent down and held her in her arms.
"Okay, grandma is holding Yuan Bao."
"Yuanbao likes grandma the most."
Little babies have a natural feeling of closeness to their mothers. At this moment, a little face was buried in Mingqin's arms, leaving only a round back for Chi Sheng.
Chi Sheng was a little embarrassed, and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red.
"Some couldn't sleep, so they got up."
"Now, let's sleep a little longer."
"No need." Ming Qin shook his head and asked softly when he saw some fresh blood stains on the wall.
"Did it happen again last night?"
When it came to business, Chi Sheng lost his previous restraint and just nodded.
"Two waves came last night, but nothing happened. I heard from them that the frequency of rat swarms has decreased a lot in the past few days, and the number has also decreased a lot.
Maybe this rat plague will be over. "
"Although there are already medicinal herbs for treatment, everyone must be more careful. Don't be careless. These mice are not simple, and they may cause diseases."
"knew."
"I'm worried that something will happen to Yancheng."
Mingqin sighed. She paid attention to the surrounding road conditions when she came to the village yesterday.
The village is only a dozen miles away from Yancheng, and the surrounding villages are plagued by rat plagues. Yancheng should not have even the slightest impact.
And now the fields everywhere are no longer able to grow crops. Even if everyone survives this winter, what about the future?
It is a huge problem to cultivate without soil in this world.
"Don't worry too much. General Shen is a powerful man. He will protect Yancheng." I will also protect you.
Chi Sheng had a good impression of Shen Wenchen and admired him even more. Although the two were not close friends, they were still friends who could sit and have a drink together.
"Okay." Mingqin smiled and said softly.
