Chapter 25 Departure, the trial of wind and snow

The sun rises and the moon turns, and in this extremely leisurely period, soon another month passed - among the county government, Taipan has been staying for a whole quarter!

The morning breeze at dawn swept by, and the ground was covered with frost!

So, autumn goes and winter comes!

"It's time to leave!" When the first north wind swept across the city of Shanbei County and rolled up scattered snowflakes, Tai Pan was also lazy. He poked his head out of the corridor of the granary and felt the roaring solemn whistling through the thick wall.

During the breathing, the chill swept through Taipan's body through the scales, causing him to involuntarily shrink, and then instinctively return to the corridor.

"It's time to leave!" After a moment, Taipan's head sighed from the corridor again. The thought of leaving in his mind echoed again and again, as if he wanted to resist the cold winter in this way.

It took a month to molt.

It took another month to learn to read.

In the third month, Taipan finished reading all the bamboo slips in the treasury, and by the way, he found the map of the Nanmu Kingdom in the bedroom of the county lord of Li. The county lord of Li was a royal family after all, and it was reasonable to have a map of the Nanmu Kingdom in his hand.

In addition, Taipan also found an opportunity to find another map from the yard of the people in the car.

How could the people in this car have traveled thousands of miles without a complete map?

As for the identity of the person in the car - in one month, Taipan also learned the origin from the people in this county.

Just as Taipan guessed, the man in this car was called Chen Ming, whose courtesy name was Zichang, and was a study abroad scholar from the Han Dynasty. What the people in this county called the Shang Kingdom refers to the country thousands of miles away, called the "Han".

The two old men who guarded Chen Ming's side, which made Taipan fearful, were the old soldiers sent by the lieutenant guarding the border when Chen Ming stepped out of the territory of the Han Dynasty.

Outside the granary, the footsteps became increasingly dense, and the sound of scattered soldiers was mixed with the sound of footsteps.

Since the beginning of winter, the atmosphere in this county has become tense.

The soldiers patrolling became more and more diligent, and they continued day and night.

The two old soldiers often left the city with the soldiers and returned all night!

Taipan knew what they were looking for—they were looking for themselves!

In winter, it is the time when snakes and insects hibernate. Under the bitter cold wind, even the fierce snakes and insects are inevitably stiff all over. With 70% of their strength, 100% of them have gone.

As for how the two old soldiers became interested in themselves, it was to go back to the hunt three months ago!

After that hunt, Chen Bing, who struggled to survive, and even the entire Chenzhuang, came from the Chen clan of the Han Dynasty!

Taipan still remembers that more than half a month ago, when Chen Bing, who was in a wheelchair, appeared in Chen Ming's courtyard, and then talked about the previous hunt and mentioned himself, the Confucian scholar named Chen Ming's eyes shining.

And in that conversation or report, Taipan also remembered a word!

A word that he could never forget after hearing it!

Demon!

When he heard this word, Taipan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated in his chest, almost exposing him to the eyes of the two old soldiers!

And it was after that that two old soldiers also frequently left the city!

After reading all the criminal culprits recorded in the Shanbei County Treasury, Tai Pan has already gained an understanding of his own value!

That mouthful is enough to call it a venom that is sealed with blood. It is inconsistent in the secret struggle between people!

From that time on, Tai Pan's actions became increasingly secretive!

Although it has become a disaster-level existence, Tai Pan is still not sure to face the two old soldiers at the same time!

And it is precisely because of this that Taipeng has the will to be free!

In addition, the second reason why Taipan decided to leave was that the wild rats and so on in Shanbei County were no longer enough for him to fill his stomach. If he continued to stay in Shanbei County, in order to fill his stomach, Taipan would inevitably devour the domestic animals, cattle and sheep domesticated by humans in this county, and that means Taipan was exposed to people!

"Must leave!" An extremely strong will spread in Taipan's mind, and then Taipan's snake body, which was more than three feet long, was completely separated from the warm corridor.

The dark green scales were shining with a cold light.

When the footsteps outside the granary were gone, Taipan took advantage of the night to get out of the warm granary, and then walked along the corner of the wall toward the city.

The bitter cold wind came towards us, like a sword, rolling over the scales around Taipan, taking away the heat flowing on Taipan's body.

The endless chill also spread throughout Tai Pan's body, almost making him completely frozen on the road.

This is a feeling that Taipan has never experienced before!

Although he had experienced this bitter winter in Xiaocang Mountain, as a beast of affliction, when the cold wind was blowing, he could always find a warm nest to avoid the bitter cold wind.

The bitter cold wind was still howling, while Taipan was still facing the cold wind, heading south!

This is the direction of the capital of the Nanmu Kingdom, and it is also the direction of the country called "Han" thousands of miles away.

Xiaocang Mountain is right beside it. Taipan knew that he only needed a little turn to return to Xiaocang Mountain, and then found a warm nest. After a full meal, he waited for the cold wind to stop!

But his cold reason told Taipan that once he returned to Xiaocang Mountain, he might never have the chance to leave again!

The warmth in the nest will wipe out his will!

"Continue to go south!" In just a moment, Taipan's slightly deflected direction had already turned back again!

Under the wind and snow, the dark green snake goes south. Although it is getting more and more difficult, it never stops!

Behind this big snake, all traces are buried by the wind and snow!

When Too Pan was extremely cold and almost completely stiff, the power hidden in his blood finally woke up.

A slight heat current surged around Taipan's body, and Taipan's scales were also tightly attached to each other, leaving no gaps, locking all the heat in his chest.

Although the wind and snow are still there, Taipan can no longer feel the cold existence!

Or, he is no longer afraid of the north wind and the cold!

"So this is, the demon!" When the wind and snow stopped and the clouds cleared, in a daze, such thought suddenly emerged from Tai Pan's mind.
Chapter completed!
