Happiness System

Chapter 376: True Gold's Escape 38

During the two days in the mountains, Meng Yuxi found a safe place, boiled some medicine to prevent the disease for everyone to drink, and fumigated many face towels with herbs...

Everyone continued on the journey fully armed, and with the help of strong winds they walked quickly for another ten days. They were about to leave the southern country.

At this time, the water level, which had not been seen for a long time, began to drop rapidly, and the temperature also dropped with it.

Out of desperation, the large team had to stop and rest.

This stop lasted another five days.

By the time the large group set out again, the temperature was close to zero degrees.

The distance from the South Country to the Zhou Country seemed not far, but it took them three full days to walk!

The barrier between Daqi and Li State is a high and steep mountain range, and I didn’t expect that the barrier between Nan State and Zhou State is also a high and steep mountain range.

The difference is that there is a deep mountain road between Daqi and Liguo, while there is a natural cave between Nanguo and Zhouguo.

Anyone who walks into this cave will know the secrets!

It’s even better than a natural refrigerator.

Meng Yuxi was shivering even though she was wrapped in a thick quilt. "Brother Jin, is it winter in Zhou Kingdom? Or a very cold winter?" It's extremely cold, damn it!

Wen Yujin hugged her and the quilt together, "The travel notes clearly recorded this magical scene, saying that it was summer on one side of the mountain and winter on the other side!

It's winter in the South, so Zhou must be colder than when we were in Li, right?"

"It's so horrible!" Meng Yuxi reached out and pulled Wen Yujin's clothes, asking him to get into bed quickly. She needed a human heater!

There was more than one mountain range between the South Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom. It took them a whole day and three cave entries before they finally entered the Zhou Kingdom.

At this time, the Zhou Kingdom was a world of ice and snow.

However, after leaving the cave, although it was still cold, it was much better than when I was in the cave.

Zhou State also belongs to the plain area, but unlike Li State, Zhou State is not developed in animal husbandry, it is not developed in anything! Everything is mediocre!

We can't say that everything is mediocre. Their mining industry is still good. They have iron ore, gold and silver mines, which are all hard currencies. With these things, they can go to the South without worrying about not being able to exchange for supplies!

But now everything is frozen in ice and snow!

They had been traveling in Zhou State for ten days, but they had not met a single Zhou person!

They entered the Ice City, the largest city in the Zhou Kingdom, and found it was an empty city. There was no living thing except for some corpses!

Meng Yuxi muttered, "Strange! There's no one here! When we were in Shangdu, someone said that all the cargo owners from Zhou State cancelled their orders last year and didn't pick up the goods. Did they all leave at that time?"

Wen Yujin knew more than Meng Yuxi, and after hearing this, he said helplessly: "There are many talented people in various countries, and it is natural that we are not the only ones who have received the news!

The Zhou Kingdom is in a unique location. They only need to pass through the stone city behind to reach the sea, and they can go ahead and search for the new continent."

The geographical environment of the Zhou Kingdom was not good. Although they were not short of gold and silver and were quite wealthy, they were short of resources and were too dependent on the Southern Kingdom. Now there was a major reshuffle and they had the upper hand, so naturally they had to occupy the territory early!

After chatting for a few sentences, Meng Yuxi lost some energy.

Zhou Guo was even colder than Li Guo. She felt a little stuck and was drowsy every day.

Could it be that she was a snake in her previous life? To be honest, she really wants to hibernate!

Wen Yujin looked at her with some concern. There were twelve hours in a day, and his wife had to sleep for eight hours. Wasn't this too much?

For this reason, he specially went to ask the imperial physician to come, but the imperial physician could not find any problem and only said that Meng Yuxi just liked to sleep more!

There was nothing special about the Zhou Kingdom except that it was cold. Under the seemingly endless snow, some people lost the will to live and were buried under the white snow.

The strangest thing is that there is not even a snow wolf in the Zhou Kingdom in winter!

They really don't even have a chance to get supplies!

After one-third of the people had left, most of them had no food to eat and most of them started to tighten their belts.

When Meng Yuxi was awake, she wanted to help, but she was powerless.

She leaned against Wen Yujin dejectedly: "Brother Jin, I can't do anything! Zhouguo is very likely to have suffered a flood at the same time, and it was winter here before the water receded. The ice underneath is so thick!"

Her special powers were useless even though they could penetrate the ice layer of about ten meters, and she couldn't make the crops grow at all!

Wen Yujin hugged her tightly with heartache, "Xi'er, I don't blame you! Life and death are determined by fate, and you gave them many chances!"

Meng Yuxi frowned as she watched the slow-moving team, "Brother Jin, can't the government send a guide to lead us all first?"

"Leave first?" Wen Yujin was puzzled.

"Well, you know skiing, right? People with less supplies can just go ahead and make a simple ski sled..."

Wen Yujin frowned, "Let me think about it!"

Finally, he went to the government, and the government solicited opinions and mobilized a group of people, but only a few were willing.

Wen Yujin came back and shook his head, "Life is right in front of us. If we can't grasp it, no one can be blamed!"

Meng Yuxi also sighed, "These people don't think there is a big monster ahead, and they think we are asking them to act as a death squad and die, right?"

Wen Yujin sneered and lowered his voice, "Your Majesty doesn't want me to interfere, do you know what the last country is called?

Stone country!

The situation in Zhou State is similar. If the winter is too long, the wood collected in the south may be the only material for shipbuilding. "

Meng Yuxi seemed to hear him say: So many people can't leave...

So, instead of wasting food rescuing them and then abandoning them, isn't it better to just let them be buried under the snow?

White is really depressing...

After knowing that, Meng Yuxi lost all motivation.

"Xi'er, Xi'er, cheer up, save your brothers! Save them!"

Meng Yuxi heard someone crying in her sleep, and it took a lot of effort to wake up, "What's wrong?"

Aunt Zhou Lanxin rushed over, "Xi'er, do you have any medicine? Please check it for your brothers and sisters, and your nephews? They are all sick! Please save them!"

Meng Yuxi's mind buzzed, "My father?"

"Your father is fine, and A Jin and A Xu are fine too. It's the other people! Xier, even though your family is of no use to you and even though they have treated you badly, they are all your blood relatives! Aunt, please, okay?" Zhou Lanxin's tears froze on her face, and she looked miserable.

Meng Yuxi pinched herself under the quilt. It hurt! It really hurt!

Her head was also aching, so she called out "Xiao Xia", but it was Wen Yujin who came in.

He pulled Zhou Lanxin away and said, "Aunt, you should look for the imperial physician. Xier's medical skills..."

Zhou Lanxin's tears flowed again. She looked a little desperate. "I can't invite them. Too many people are sick. There is no medicine... no medicine!"

Meng Yuxi's head hurt even more because of her crying. She covered her head and said, "Aunt, please go back first. I'll come later!"

Zhou Lanxin wanted to cry a few more times, but when she met Wen Yujin's cold eyes, she paused and crawled up in embarrassment, "Okay, okay! Xier, those are your brothers and sisters, you must come."

After Zhou Lanxin left, Meng Yuxi took out a bottle of energy water and drank it, and then she felt much better.

She asked Wen Yujin, "What's going on? Why did everyone suddenly fall ill?"

Wen Yujin helped her up and put on thick clothes for her, then said slowly: "It's not sudden, but you were in a deep sleep and didn't know. Many people have been sick during this period. The government said it was caused by the cold, and it may also be related to the corpses in the South Country before!"

"plague?"

"It's not a plague, it's just like a common cold. Some people can get better after enduring it, but for others, it gets worse the longer they wait. It's contagious, but not very serious..."

"How is everything at home? Are you..."

"I'm fine, and my family is fine too! Every two days the kitchen will make the defensive medicine you prepared and distribute it to everyone. If anyone feels uncomfortable, just take two pills and you'll be fine."

"Well, then you accompany me to visit the Meng family. It just so happens that I haven't seen my father and brothers for a long time."

"it is good!"

Meng Yuxi put on her clothes, opened the car door, shivering from the cold, and immediately closed the door again.

I took off my coat and put on a specially made cold-proof down jacket, then put my coat back on before going out.

She was wrapped so tightly that she looked almost as big as a brown bear.

The Meng family is not that close, but fortunately Wen Yujin and his team have already developed skis.

After getting off the carriage, Wen Yujin carried her on his back, put on his skis and slipped out. They also met Zhou Lanxin who was halfway there, but it was not convenient for Wen Yujin to take her with him, so he just passed her by.

"Xi'er, come and sit down first!"

Old Man Meng was shivering with cold in the tent. When he came back from a walk outside, he unexpectedly met his granddaughter.

"Alas, I told you not to bother you, but they still..." The old man shook his head, "Don't listen to your aunt, it's not that serious, she just loves her son too much!"

Meng Yuxi nodded, "I know, Grandfather!"

She followed the old man into the tent, where there was a fire. Almost all the people who were not sick were there. She greeted each elder one by one.

After chatting for a while, I took the pulse of the old man, the old lady, and the father and son of the third room. I relaxed a little only after confirming that there was no problem.

The old man laughed when he saw her like this, "I told you not to call you, you scared my eldest granddaughter!

Alas, those children are still too weak, unable to withstand even the slightest wind and waves, and their bodies are not as strong as your grandmother and I, who have one foot halfway into the coffin!"

"You and grandma are our backbone. Only when you are well can we feel at ease!"

Meng Yuxi was helpless. If she hadn't treated them before in Yucheng and made pills for them later, these people would have been in danger!

She took out a few bottles of pills from the medicine box and distributed them, saying, "I think it's time to finish the previous medicine. These are for strengthening the body, so we need to continue taking them!

In addition, the Wen family has some medicinal decoctions for preventing colds. I'll have someone send a few over later.

You still have to be careful and don’t get close to people who are infected with the disease..."

After giving a few instructions, she went to another tent.

It was also helpless, half of the dozen or so young people fell!

Falling sick is not a big deal, the main problem is the lack of medicine and medical care. The Meng family’s relative who knows medicine didn’t survive the desert.

The Meng family's condition worsened from mild to severe, and they became panicked as they had no medicine and could not find a doctor.

Seeing a group of sick people looking so depressed, she smiled and said, "It's okay, you won't die. I'll have someone bring you some medicine later. Take a few doses and keep warm. You'll be well soon!"

She used her half-baked medical skills to diagnose these people, and under Wen Yujin's guarded eyes, she quickly retreated.
