Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Desperate Situation

It hasn't snowed much this winter, and now the belated heavy snow has finally come. The snowflakes in the northern country are as big as a mat, covering the whole land with a piece of silver in a short time. After realizing that it was snowing heavily, Ding Yuluo and Ding Hao acted immediately to rouse the guys who had just rested, no matter how reluctant they were, they used both soft and hard tactics to get everyone to get up and hurry. The heavy snow was dense, the world was vast, and at dawn, there was a strong wind again.At first there was still warmth, but now the snow was sticky, sticking to people and the wheels, but now the warmth is gone, and the wind blows snowflakes straight into people's necks, which is even more chilling to the bone. Go, that group of people has become a snowman who can move.

There was a lot of snow on the ground, and the wheels were twisted and twisted so that it was difficult to move forward. The villagers who held the whip, the coachman and the guards pushed their shoulders and pushed their hands, and drove the mules and horses desperately. At noon, everyone was exhausted. It was difficult to take a step, and the whole convoy finally rested in the wilderness with no village in front and no shop behind. The bright but unwarming sun hangs high in the sky, shining on the boundless snow, the reflection dazzles people's eyes.The guys who hid beside the cart and hurriedly ate some dry food looked exhausted. No matter how Ding Yuluo, Liu Shishi, Li Shouyin and others encouraged them, and even offered huge rewards, they refused to take a step forward.

Ding Hao's voice was hoarse, he repeated back and forth with a hoarse voice, and he was still trying to persuade everyone: Brothers, there are not many roads left, we have turned over thousands of mountains and mountains, and we can still lose at this last section. With a little more effort, Hirohara is in front of us An exhausted Min Zhuang leaned on a big cart, and said weakly: Steward Ding, the Ding family paid three days' wages a day, and treated us well along the way. If you don't fight righteousness, we can taste it.If you can still walk, you don't need to say, the big guy will give up a hundred catties, but we really can't walk anymore.

Feng Dazhang came back from the front stepping on the thick snow, his eyebrows and beard were shaved white by the wind and snow, and if the bloated sheepskin jacket was dyed red, it would be like a Christmas tree. elder. When he saw Ding Hao, he sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "Xiao Ding, don't make it difficult for everyone. Even if the big guy is willing to risk his life, it will not work. The rest of the road is not easy to walk. Heavy snow At first, we couldn't even see the road, we were lost in the wilderness now, and if we went any further, the axles would be broken in a short time.

Then we can ask people to explore the way. Although it is slower, it is better than sitting still and waiting for death. Pathfinder?Even if we can find a way, this car will not be able to move in the thick snow with such a heavy grain. Ding Hao glanced at the wheels of the cart. The wooden wheels were less than half the width of the tires of the car. The cart was loaded with grain and completely sunk in the deep snow. The strength of the mules and horses was limited, so they could only pull the cart under normal circumstances. A lot of grain, even if the number of mules and horses doubled in this situation, it would be difficult to drag the cart out of the thick snow.

Ding Hao looked blankly at the crooked convoy, the exhausted young man, he couldn't help but bewildered, maybe he didn't care so much about the future of the Ding family, but how much effort he had put into this matter, now it's over? After a long time, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "Where is Missy?" The people around looked around, but they didn't find Ding Yuluo's figure.Just now Ding Yuluo was still here with the stewards trying to persuade everyone, but at this moment, no one noticed where she went.After a long time, Xue Liang said: Dumb, just now I saw that the eldest lady went there.

Ding Hao looked in the direction that Sao Zhu'er pointed, and there was a sky in front of him, intertwined with the snow-white earth in the distance.The heavy white snow bent the reeds, and the reeds were bent into a bow shape. The reed tips were buried in the snow, and the reed stalks were hairy, like fox tails. On the thick snow, there was a row of deep foot pits.Ding Hao pulled a long whip from the shaft as a crutch, and followed the footprints. It was a slope, if it weren't for the fox tails bowed by the reeds, just look at the snow patterns blown by the wind, the snow slope would be like a beach by the sea, more like the waves of a desert, desolate and desolate.

Ding Yuluo stood in front alone, just standing there so firmly.Ding Hao walked to her side, stood still, and saw that her face was very white, just like the snowflakes on her shoulders.The pale, lifeless face made her figure look like a sculpture. Missy I asked Feng Dazhang What? He said that such a strange weather, even he did not see it beforehand.This snow doesn't fall sooner or later, but at this time it blocks our way out, blocks our way of life Missy Ding Yuluo giggled suddenly, and the snow on her shoulders rustled down: This snow seemed to be specially for my Ding family. Missy

Ding Yuluo turned around slowly, a snowflake floated down alone, and was blown onto her face by the breeze, her long eyelashes did not blink, those eyes looked at Ding Hao, but those empty eyes floated Passing Ding Hao, I seem to see overlapping mountains and rivers in the distance Dumb, you should be my second brother, but you have to call me Miss.The Ding family has been rich and prosperous for thirty years, and you have never enjoyed a single cent.fortunate?Or is it unfortunate?Looking at it in the past, it was misfortune, but looking at it now, it is luck. At least, you will not have anything to do with the Ding family's catastrophe.

Missy The heavy snow does not melt in a day, and the food and grass cannot be transported to Guangyuan in a day.This is the death of my Ding family, the Ding family is exhausted Ding Yuluo's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally focused on Ding Hao, with a smile on his lips: If it was a time of peace and prosperity, it would not be a big deal if the grain truck was robbed, but it was the grain and grass of the frontier army, and the northern Tartars were in the middle of it. Harassing the border, the Ding family caused such a catastrophe, no one can save us.I think Dad will be very lucky, thankful that he has always regarded you as a passerby, because his cruelty has left a trace of incense for the Ding family.The ancients said that blessings come from misfortunes, and misfortunes depend on blessings. Thinking about it now, it is true

She was in a trance, but her face was flushed with bright red. Seeing that strange look, Ding Hao secretly felt a chill in his heart.After Ding Yuluo finished speaking, he quickly pulled out the gleaming sharp sword from behind his shoulder: Yuluo can't save the Ding family, so now she just wants to die clean, so as not to be humiliated while alive. Before Ding Yuluo could say a word, he flipped his wrist and wiped his sword away from his neck. At this time, there was still a distance of more than two feet between the two, and the ground was covered with knee-thick snow, even if the thief Bisu he met in Qinghe Town was as light as an ape, he would never be able to jump over in time stop. Ding Hao broke out in a cold sweat
