Chapter 126 Cold!
As the carriage finally left the terrifying brothel.
Li Sian felt waves of fear.
If I can't bear the fear and fight with the other party, or escape from the carriage, I'm afraid I have...
"But if this carriage passes by this brothel next time, I'm afraid it will hit him directly. Entering a brothel.”
Taking a deep breath, Li Si'an was hesitating about the way out of this strange situation.
But suddenly I found that the scene outside seemed to have changed.
It is no longer the single dense forest before, but dim houses appear intermittently.
But as expected, these houses all have their doors and windows closed, with no light coming through.
Li Sian still did not choose to jump off the carriage out of caution.
Who knows if these dark-looking houses might be haunted houses occupied by evil spirits.
But finally being able to see something different made Li Sian feel a lot more relaxed.
It's better than being trapped in that weird brothel and not being able to leave.
But until this time, Li Sian finally felt the biting cold coming from his body.
The cold wind outside was getting colder and colder, but the carriage seemed to be leaking wind from all sides. Li Sian couldn't help but shiver from the cold.
Ice stubble formed on my hair, and my breath turned into white mist.
At this time, Li Sian was still wearing thin robes, which could not withstand the cold.
But with Li Sian's physical fitness, he would never freeze like this just from the cold.
"It's probably the rules of the strange environment that force people to endure this coldness."
After holding on for a moment, Li Sian felt that his blood was about to freeze. On the carriage Neither sitting nor lying down.
At this moment, he suddenly saw light coming from the window again.
And it is not a dazzling light like a brothel, but an ordinary light that although not bright, can warm people's hearts.
Li Sian could even vaguely smell the aroma of the food, which made him feel hungry.
“No, if we continue in this carriage, we will either starve to death or freeze to death.”
“Even if there is a mountain of knives and arrows raining down upon this room, we must go in. Take a rest, it’s best to find some clothes to wear.”
After weighing the risks on both sides, Li Si'an understood that if he didn't get off the carriage, he would definitely freeze to death in less than half an hour.
While secretly accumulating strength and boosting your spirits.
If there is any trouble, Li Sian can fight back immediately.
Li Sian carefully got off the carriage, looked around and found that there was no scary, strange or evil thing.
I walked into the house tentatively and found that there was no one in the house.
There was only a large, heavy-looking cotton-padded coat placed on a slightly worn wooden table.
Li Sian, who could no longer bear the cold, rushed forward and put on the large cotton coat.
This cotton coat fits very snugly, as if it was tailor-made for Li Sian.
A sense of comfort and warmth suddenly hit him, making Li Sian's whole body so warm that he didn't even bother to move.
At this time, Li Sian also discovered that it started to snow heavily outside the house.
The temperature dropped again, but Li Sian no longer felt the slightest bit cold.
Hungry Li Sian was ready to leave here quickly and got on the carriage to find a way out of the strange situation.
But at this moment, the aroma of rice and vegetables slowly came from another room in the house.
"Is there someone in this room!?"
Li Si'an couldn't help but feel a little wary. He approached the room cautiously and then looked inside.
The next moment, Li Sian was stunned by the scene inside.
It turned out that the room was a kitchen, and a woman was cooking in it.
Turn around, it was Jiang Lei who was already more than seven months pregnant.
"Sian, what are you doing standing there? Help me bring the dishes to the table."
Li Sian took the two plates of dishes blankly and took a look at them. They were indeed the same. My favorite dish.
And it is a dish in the true sense, no longer the twisted, dirty, foul-smelling sour swill in my eyes before.
"I..." Li Sian also wanted to see through the other party's flaws through questioning and strengthen his own thoughts.
But Jiang Lei did not stand there blankly. Instead, she stepped forward and took Li Sian's hand to sit at the table.
"It's time to eat. I know you are tired and hard working from studying every day, so I specially cooked your favorite dish to reward you."
Li Sian took a deep breath and then asked ：
"Why are you here? Aren't you afraid of evil things attacking you?"
Jiang Lei was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and touched Li Sian's forehead in confusion:
"What evil things are there?" "Isn't this our home?"
Li Sian wanted to ask again, but Jiang Lei asked Li Sian to eat first, otherwise the food would be cold.
Even though he was extremely hungry, Li Sian did not touch any food on the table.
Instead, he quietly picked up a chopstick dish for Jiang Lei.
After confirming that Jiang Lei had eaten the vegetables and that there was no poison in them, she carefully took a small bite.
After a while, after confirming that there was no physical discomfort, I finally started to enjoy the meal.
Two dishes, two large bowls of rice, and a small pot of warm daughter's red.
After eating, I felt indescribably comfortable all over my body, and Li Sian even felt like crying.
After coming to this house, Li Sian realized that the world in his eyes seemed to have finally returned to normal.
As long as it involves this house, everything is as it should be. The snow outside the window is unprecedentedly white, no longer a twisted, dark yellow muddy water.
Although the interior of the house is simple, it is not filled with distorted visceral colors and textures.
Especially because there is a pot of flowers in the house, and the refreshing floral fragrance is something Li Sian has never smelled since he got sick.
Although after practicing meditation, Li Si'an can tolerate the distorted world to the maximum extent and minimize their harm as much as possible.
But Li Sian has always wanted to live in a normal world from beginning to end.
No need to endure the disgusting world, no need to face those hideous and terrifying people.
According to Li Sian's plan, he planned to replenish his strength before leaving the house after eating.
But the feeling of weariness with the world made him want to stay in the house, unwilling to face the real but cruel world outside.
"Forget it, I'm tired after going through so much, why not rest in the house for a night, and then go out to explore this strange place after dawn."
Although I know that this place is fake, but anyway It’s the same everywhere, so why not choose a place where he can be more comfortable and enjoy it?
"Sian, have you decided on a name for our child?"
"Name?" Li Sian was stunned.
"Yes, don't say you forgot." Jiang Lei said angrily:
"You said it yourself, you are a scholar who has read a lot of poetry, so you can definitely come up with a good name with literary talent."
Li Si'an looked at Jiang Leimei's beautiful face and was intoxicated by it. He said seriously:
"In terms of seniority, my generation should be called Shi. If it's a boy, let's call him Li Shiwen."
"Shiwen?" Jiang Lei read. Reading this name, I am obviously very satisfied.
"If it's a girl..." Li Sian was interrupted by Jiang Lei before he finished speaking:
"It's definitely a boy!"
"How do you know?"
"I just know. I am the child's mother, so I naturally know whether my child is a boy or a girl." Jiang Lei did not He said convinced.
"Don't worry, no matter whether they are boys or girls, they are all my children, Li Sian."
Li Sian does not differentiate between men and women like ordinary people. They pay attention to the inheritance of the family line.
Afterwards, Jiang Lei started talking about all kinds of trivial things about the parents.
What delicious dishes did I learn today, and what beautiful scenery did Li see outside.
Although they were boring topics for men, Li Sian listened tirelessly and felt particularly peaceful.
Looking at the wind and snow outside the window, Li Sian suddenly murmured:
"When the snow stops, I will take you out to see the scenery."
"Okay."
Soon, Li Si'an and Jiang Lei lay on the narrow but warm bed, preparing to sleep for the night.
"Just sleep for one night. It will be brighter tomorrow, which is more suitable for me to go out and explore."
Li Sian warned himself in his heart, and fell asleep peacefully on the bed.
The next moment, Li Sian suddenly woke up.
There is no longer a warm and bright cabin in front of me, nor is my beloved beside me.
Everything seems to be just a dream.
I was still wearing only a thin cloth robe, sitting in a cold carriage and driving in the dark.
Aimless, with no end in sight.
My hands and feet were so cold that I lost consciousness, and it was very difficult to bend my fingers.
In addition to being cold, Li Si'an also felt something else.
That’s hunger.
Being hungry made Li Si'an restless and extremely weak.
Now even if Li Sian is given a cow, Li Sian seems to be able to eat a meal.
“I’m so hungry, so cold...”
Li Si'an knew in his heart that he had to get out. If he continued, he would die.
The curtain of the carriage was suddenly opened, and the cold wind outside swept toward Li Sian without any cover.
With the blizzard all over the sky and the reflection of light on the snowy night, there is an endless darkness of wilderness with no end in sight.
“Ah!”
Li Sian just wanted to shout to vent the fear in his heart, but found that he had woken up in the warm cabin.
"Si'an, are you having a nightmare?"
Jiang Lei gently stroked Li Si'an's back with her small hands to ease Li Si'an's fear and uneasiness.
Li Sian then realized that he was so frightened that he was covered in sweat.
Looking at his wife's worried eyes, Li Sian finally said with strength:
"It's okay, I just had a nightmare."
Although he knew Jiang Lei was fake, Li Si'an still couldn't bear to expose it all.
Even if it was the illusory Jiang Lei, Li Sian still hoped to avoid her sad eyes as much as possible.
Li Sian was suddenly afraid. He was afraid that after he fell asleep again, everything warm would disappear again, and it would still be a bitingly cold, twisted and ugly world outside.
It wasn't until daytime outside that Li Sian got up from the bed.
“It’s daytime?”
It’s time to hit the road...
