At present, the road surface of Xicheng has been repaired, and the stone houses used for winter are all built. Besides the city wall, the most basic construction is almost completed, and ye Xi is finally a little idle.
He held the flaming fern ball, rode a big bat, braved the cold rain to the rock salt mine cave.
It''s getting colder and colder. The pouring rain is like ice. Most of the animals in the forest are hiding.
Two Uighur birds, who are responsible for guarding the cave, are not afraid of the cold. They stop on a nearby tree with small chests and puffy feathers. They let the cold raindrops fall through the leaves.
When ye Xi turned over and jumped down from the back of the big bat, the two Uighur birds immediately put their feathers away with vigilance and looked at them with sharp eyes.
When ye Xi was discovered, the two Uighur birds suddenly withdrew their vigilance, and their plumage exploded again, just like two lumps of round brown fluff, close together to resist the cold.
At this time, Jiaojiao was listless and huddled in the depth of the rock salt mine. In the dark, he opened his scarlet eyes blankly and let the cold wind blow in.
The scales, which used to be as smooth as metal, are now dull.
"Jiaojiao --"
Ye Xi stood at the cave and yelled at it.
The black scale boa constrictor, who used to come out of the cave like lightning without calling, slowly climbed out of the cave. It hissed at Ye Xi twice, and immediately lowered its head, never moving again.
Ye Xi was surprised to see Jiaojiao like this: "what''s the matter?"
He knew that snakes were afraid of the cold and had the habit of hibernating, but Jiaojiao was already a kind of fierce beast. According to the truth, they should not be afraid of the cold to such an extent that their scales lost their luster.
"Hiss..."
Jiaojiao gently vomited the snake.
Ye Xi frowned and looked at Jiaojiao carefully. He found that his cornea was smoky blue. Then he suddenly realized that he was about to molt.
This is the first time Jiaojiao molts. He is a little unprepared But it''s always a good thing that a python molts its skin, and the new skin becomes harder after it''s shed.
Ye Xisong * tone, pat its big head, warm voice: "this time you work hard, today you can return to the city to sleep in peace, do you think the tribe dig out of the hole? It''s deep enough and it''s big enough for you to shed your skin. "
Hearing Ye Xi''s words, Jiaojiao immediately raised his head and looked at him suspiciously with scarlet eyes.
It only saw Ye Xi and Da Bi. Who is going to guard the cave?
Feeling Jiaojiao''s doubts, ye Xi did not explain, but said with a smile, "you come out first."
The huge Python body slowly swam out of the cave. The black scales of the python were drenched with cold rain, and the sound of metal percussion was made, but the scales became more and more gray.
After the Jiaojiao came out completely, ye Xi put down the flaming fern ball in his arms with both hands, put it upright at the hole, and squatted down to look at it solemnly,
"Yan Wen fern, this cave is very important to us, so I would like to ask you to protect here, can you?"
In this period of time, the light of the flaming fern ball became more and more dim, and even the breath was almost nonexistent. Just like the most common rattan ball, there was no trace of vitality.
But as soon as ye Xi''s voice fell, the flaming fern ball suddenly swelled wildly!
Numerous vines spread out in all directions, climbing up the mountain wall of the entrance of the rock salt mine like climbing vines. At the same time, each leaf seems to be lit up, and the complex lines that had been silent once again sparkled the light of magma.
It''s almost a moment of terror.
"-- GAH!"
On the branch, two Uighur birds screamed to the extreme and flew into the air in an instant.
Hula, all the creatures around him exploded like fireoil and fled to the distance. The Jiaojiao also grabbed Ye Xi as lightning and tried to escape from here. He changed his decadent appearance and made amazing moves.
The smell of the outbreak of the fern is terrible.
Jiaojiao was so frightened that he didn''t even have the thought of resistance. He ignored everything and immediately left with Ye Xi.
Ye Xi didn''t expect that the flaming fern would emit such a terrible breath. His heart missed a beat, and the next second he responded and ordered Jiaojiao to stop immediately.
Jiaojiao is very afraid of the red fern. He is afraid that his pupils will shrink into a line.
But its extreme trust in Ye Xi forced it to overcome this fear and rigidly released Ye Xi and kept him by his side.
The fern is still growing.
Innumerable vines gradually covered the whole mountain, the leaves spread like flowers, the light of the lines became more and more prosperous, and sent out a hot breath.
It''s like a big furnace out of thin air.
The temperature of the surrounding area rose instantly, and the cold feeling was swept away. When the pouring rain water fell on the leaves of the fern, it was immediately evaporated.
When the fern is stretched out, the mist on the top of the mountain is like a sea of clouds. The scene is quite shocking.Then the fern began to reduce the heat.
The rolling and majestic fog also contracted sharply, leaving only a layer of two centimeters of light water mist.
Ye Xi breathed a deep breath and calmed down the shock in his heart.
Just now, the breath of flaming fern burst out more terrifying than when he first saw him. He had no guard at all I don''t know how much the real strength of Yan Wen fern is. It''s a waste to let such a strong existence guard the salt mine, or we should let it protect Xicheng.
However, it is extremely cold in winter, and it is impossible to send soldiers to guard the salt mines.
It''s better to spend the winter first.
Ye Xi recollected his thoughts and spent some time to find the two Uighur birds, who were frightened and cracked, and ordered them to continue to guard the cave.
Although the flaming fern can guarantee the absolute safety here, if the Uighur birds are not there, what happens here in Xicheng is unknown.
Two Uighur birds were really scared and fluttered down. Ye Xi comforted them and said, "don''t be afraid. It won''t hurt you. If you feel cold, you can still stand on it to keep warm."
He has just touched it. The fern is warm now. It feels warm and comfortable.
The two Uighur birds did not understand. They took a look at the glistening flaming ferns all over the mountain, and then continued to shiver together. They looked pitifully like two weak cabbages in the wind and snow.
Ye Xi wanted to laugh. After comforting him again and again, he was ruthless and ruthless, and left here with Jiaojiao and Da Bi.
…… When
returned to Xi Cheng, ye Xi settled the Jiao in the underground cave of the tribe *, and thought about it, and walked slowly along the flagstone road towards the weaving house.
A Zhi''s house is on the top of the hill.
Dozens of ancient mulberry trees have been transplanted from the forest there, which is full of green.
In fact, mulberry leaves would fall off in winter, but he helped these ancient mulberry trees maintain their vitality by using Wu Li, so that they could still be luxuriant in the cold weather, and the mulberry leaves could be eaten in winter.
The fireplace in the room was blazing. As soon as the door was opened, a stream of warm air rushed towards him, dispelling the chill on Ye Xi.
Now a Zhi is sitting on the fur blanket by the fireplace, quietly weaving silk clothes.
Long snow-white hair on the ground.
Countless bright silks interlaced around like cobwebs, weaving half of the silk clothing. These silks were hanging in the air, while a Zhi''s hands were wrapped around several silks, interweaving rapidly in the air.
When she weaves silk clothes, her movements are like playing with the harp, and with some rhythm, it looks very beautiful.
"Brother Ye Xi!"
A Zhi turns his head to see ye Xi is very surprised, immediately stops the action in hand, pours forward to smile at him.
Ye Xi righted her, but frowned: "silk clothes don''t worry, don''t spin silk, and have a good rest for some time." When
was just building the city, he put all the * tribal slaves under control. Ah weave all the silk in his body, and his face turned pale as a piece of paper. He walked unsteadily. He didn''t work well when he drank the Li Quan water. He slept for two days and two nights before he recovered.
This sleep scared Ye Xi. He did not dare to let a Zhi spit silk like this again and again told her to take a good rest.
"It''s OK. I''m free. Don''t worry about me. I''m all right now after all this time." Ah Zhi said, drooping her eyes and lowering her voice, "I just Some think of mulberry ridge, some think of a sang
Ye Xi advised: "winter is coming. It''s not the time for you to go back."
Silkworms are very afraid of cold creatures. At the end of autumn, they spin a lot of silk, wrap themselves in white cocoons, and then fall into a deep sleep until the weather turns warm.
Ye Xi touched her cerebellar pouch melon and said, "even if you go back after weaving silk, you will see a Sang''s white cocoons. It is better to spend a warm winter here and reunite with them."
A Zhi was silent.
Ye Xi thought for a while and said, "you haven''t seen what the snow looks like."
A Zhi suddenly raised his head and his eyes flashed slightly.
Ye Xi laughed in his heart and continued in a seductive tone: "the snow is pure white. In winter, they will float down from the sky, just like petals. If you wait a lot, the ground will be covered with a thick layer of snow, loose and soft. If you step in, you will sink into it
"If you wear a little thicker, you can still lie in the snow and roll, or make a big snowball!"
"There''s a fireplace and a hot Kang here, which can help you through the cold winter. You won''t have such a rare opportunity when you go back to mulberry ridge in the future."
A Zhi imagined the scene. Her eyes became brighter and brighter. She finally regained her spirit and said, "brother Ye Xi, I want to see the snow!"
