Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 711
739 Octopus Splendor
"It's just ahead? How far is it?" They continued on their way. Because of the incident of wolves hunting for food, many people regretted joining in the fun this time, but going back now?Obviously, it is impossible for the people leading the group to send them back, and even they themselves dare not let fewer people send them back.

With more than a hundred people staying together, they feel a little more secure.

"It's just ahead, about five or six miles away." A soldier replied.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts calmed down a little.

Just get to the place.

They are on their way these days, but it is not easy.

Although I also walked and played on the road, and ate, drank and stayed in the new third district for one night, after leaving the new third district, my heart became more and more uneasy.

They also passed a checkpoint. It is said that the destination is outside the second checkpoint, because Youzhou built a third checkpoint before winter, and in the area surrounded by the third checkpoint, there is a great lake!
This is also the reason why the third checkpoint was set up in Youzhou, in order to push the land boundary to the north little by little, so that more fertile land could be given to the water source and enclosed in this land boundary.

Going further north, it would be too barren, and it would have already left the border of Youzhou.

The place where they are staying now probably no longer belongs to Youzhou, but I heard that the King of Youzhou greeted the emperor and included this area, and it was included in the boundary of Youzhou.

It can be said that after the king of Youzhou came, even the place of Youzhou became much bigger than before.

The officials in the court and people in other places didn't care much, because further north, it was really barren, and the places where all kinds of cold-resistant foreign tribes lived, even if they were really enclosed by Youzhou, it was nothing Bad things.

For those adults in Datang, places further north, the standard place of bitter cold, belonged to places where exiled officials would not be exiled, because further north, it was too cold.

Now this place, after more than a hundred people have arrived, they feel that it is too cold.

"Hiss! It's colder here than in Youzhou County! It feels like it's going to snow again." Someone muttered.

When they were on the road, they had already caught up with a snowfall, but fortunately it was not a heavy snowfall, so they enjoyed the snowy snow scene on the road at first.

But after the initial novelty passed, I felt this icy horror.

"We are still following the regiment, and we all wear enough clothes, bring a lot of food, and drink hot ginger syrup every day, so that we don't catch the cold. How can the people living here suffer?" Someone sighed while warming his hands.The sled they were sitting in was surrounded by things, and sitting inside, they did not miss the scenery on both sides, but if there was a wind blowing in, they shrunk their necks down so that the wind would not blow to their faces.

If it snows, pull up the plastic cloth tents on both sides of the sled, which can block most of the wind and snow.

Because it is a donkey-drawn cart, not a dog-drawn cart, the sled is a two-person sled. In addition to a person sitting on each sled, there is also a sleeping bag produced in Youzhou, as well as some flesh and water bladders.

In fact, there are some sleds in the team that are specially used to load supplies, but even so, there are things on the sledges that can ensure that the people on it can eat and drink for at least two days, this is to prevent accidents from happening.

The donkeys are all wrapped in some "clothes", and they look fully armed, and they will not be frozen at all when walking in this kind of snow.

This configuration also makes it strange for outsiders who are walking in the snow for the first time to view the scenery.They even thought that if they had known that the snow scene was so beautiful, they would have come a long time ago.

But they know better that before King Youzhou comes, before the new third district and these checkpoints are built, even if they are allowed, they will not come!
Not to mention anything else, if it wasn't for the new third area and the first two checkpoints as a midway supply, or if they dared to come, who would dare to bring them here?
Traveling day and night in ice and snow is no joke!
That is to say, with these supplies and sufficient preparations, these outsiders who like excitement can come out together and enjoy the beauty of the white snow.

"Ask the people who live around here how they suffer? How do you say this? The garrison in Youzhou is naturally fully armed. There is nothing to eat, drink, use, live, or travel. It’s missing. It’s only from us walking all the way. Even if they are patrolling and resting outside, they probably won’t be afraid of the things they use. If you mean those alien races living further north, well, maybe they have rough skin and thick flesh. Antifreeze!"

Such an answer has won the approval of many people.

Naturally, among the foreigners present, some have seen foreign races, but these people who have seen foreign races, the foreign races they have seen are basically those who came to the Tang Dynasty with the mission, know etiquette, wear good clothes, and dress well. A nice gentleman.

Like ordinary aliens, or how the aliens living in the north live, they have never thought about it in the past.

The place they were in now, not even the northernmost point, was so cold and desolate. They really couldn't imagine that flesh and blood like them, without the backing of a generous God of Wealth like the King of Youzhou, should How to survive in such a cold place.

Maybe it's really because those alien races are particularly resistant to freezing!
"It's here, it's here!" Just as these foreigners were thinking about this, someone in front shouted in surprise.

arrive?

These people quickly raised their heads and stretched their necks to look forward, and they saw a large group of small black dots moving slowly, and farther away, there seemed to be a large shadow building. Is that the third level?

I heard that the place they are going to is not far from the third checkpoint, it should be right in front!
Could those little black dots be the participants who arrived earlier than them?
The sled was not moving slowly, and after a while, they arrived at the location of the little black dots, and they saw many people who were not soldiers.

They are all dressed thickly, most of them are men, but there are also some women, these women are basically dressed in heroic clothes, because of the previous female guide killing wolves, the group of viewers who arrived later did not pay attention to those women. Showing surprise.

"What a coincidence that you are here! Today is the day for fishing!" the male guide in charge of their group suddenly said.

His voice was very loud, and when he spoke, many people heard him.

net fish?

"That's right! Today is the fishing day! Look, there is a lake ahead! A frozen lake! They are all watching the fishing! It's about to start!"

As the middle-aged man's voice fell, cheers suddenly sounded from the other side.

"There are fish! There are fish! Pull!"
