You are not exile, you are clearly traveling!

Chapter 116 Great Changes in One Night

Chapter 116

Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed.

When everyone woke up, they saw a vast expanse of white all around. The ground and treetops were all covered with snow.

"Ah!"

"so cold!"

"I'm freezing to death!"

People huddled together and hid under the trees. They were woken up by the cold in the middle of the night and frantically added firewood, otherwise they would have frozen to death.

They never thought that winter would come just overnight, without any precautions.

"Come on people!"

"Help!"

At this time, a woman suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked back and saw a woman holding an old man in her arms. The old man was lying on the ground unconscious. He was obviously unconscious from the cold.

When Xu Tian heard the movement, he ran over quickly and shouted at everyone, "Get out of the way, let's carry him to the fire together!"

Feeling the coldness on the old man's body and the lack of a beating pulse, Xu Tian looked very ugly.

"let me see!"

Doctor Yang came over quickly carrying the medicine box, followed by Yang Xiaohua. The first thing Mr. Chen saw when he saw it was snowing was that he was worried that someone would freeze to death, so he asked Doctor Yang to help.

As for the medicine box, Mr. Chen and the others bought it in the county. They bought two at that time, one for Dr. Yang and one for Yang Xiaohua.

Xu Tian knew that he was the doctor next to Mr. Chen, so he quickly got out of the way, and Dr. Yang squatted next to the old man.

After checking it, he sighed, "It's too late, it was already last night..."

The old man's body has poor resistance and cannot keep up with his nutrition. He has to walk long distances every day and is very exhausted physically and mentally. Last night there was a sudden heavy snowfall, and the consequences can be imagined.

When the woman heard this, she immediately hugged the old man's body and cried loudly, "Dad, dad, don't leave me alone...Dad...why..."

Xu Tian stood up silently and looked around. There were also wailing sounds from all around. Apparently, more than one person had frozen to death.

"Make the fire bigger and let everyone gather together." Xu Tian quickly reacted and ordered other government officials.

"Also, hurry up and boil some hot water and cook some food so that everyone can fill their bellies."

After everyone gathered together, Xu Tian also counted the casualties. Only two people died from the cold, one was an old man and the other was a baby.

Fortunately, the snow did not fall last night. In a sense, it should have fallen in the morning.

At that time, everyone was almost awake, so when they felt the snow falling, they had already gathered together to keep warm and made a fire.

Otherwise, the trouble would not be just two people.

When Xu Tian sighed, he was a little thankful, but also a little confused. This place was still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from Nanman. He didn't know how many of these people could persist to the end.

Shaking his head and not thinking about it, he saw Master Chen and others cooking something and walked over.

Then I saw Mr. Chen and others making ginger soup, and then letting the children, old people and women drink first.

"Why!"

Some people were dissatisfied, "Why can they drink it but we can't!"

"Just because we brought these out!" Chen Xue said coldly, "We can do with our things whatever we want!"

"you……"

The man didn't expect Chen Xue to be so direct, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

At this moment, Lord Chen also came out and looked at the crowd, "You all have elders, wives and daughters, etc. This ginger soup is limited, you should think carefully about whether you should let your wives and daughters drink it or drink it yourself."

As soon as Mr. Chen said this, everyone naturally chose to give it to his wife, children and the elderly. After all, they were weak.

Of course, there are also people who are selfish and drink it themselves instead of giving it to their wives and children. Such people have long been blacklisted by Mr. Chen.

The snow fell suddenly this time, and no one was prepared. Mr. Chen was responsible for sudden snow disaster relief in the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Therefore, he was very aware of the consequences of the sudden snow. If he did not take action, these people would not survive the next day.

Although he is not the Minister of Tobe now, he is capable of helping, so how could he watch these people die in front of his eyes.

Even if some of these people deserve their crimes, many more are innocent.

And he doesn't need to pay a big price. As long as he pays a small price, he can save a group of people. With Mr. Chen's character, how could he not do it.

Therefore, he asked his wife and daughter for their opinions, and after receiving their consent, he made ginger soup from the ginger that Chen Xue had bought as seeds and seasonings.

After all, it is well known that ginger soup can keep out the cold.

However, ginger is limited, so the ginger soup made is naturally limited. Master Chen is naturally not a saint, and he cannot give everyone a bowl of water.

Unless more water is added, in this case, there will be only a little ginger flavor at most and no effect at all.

Therefore, he chose the elderly, children, and women, who were relatively weak and prone to freezing, to let them drink ginger soup. If there was more, he could give it to others.

Ask the government officials to maintain order, ask the women, children and elderly people to come and collect them, and ask them to finish drinking on the spot and leave.

The man who just asked the question curled his lips, "Isn't it just a bowl of ginger soup? What's so great about it? It's not like I haven't drunk it before."

Others ignored him and looked at those people with envy. Some of them did not have children or wives, so they were wondering whether they should have a bowl.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"

A family of three suddenly came to Mr. Chen and knelt on the ground.

"Get up!"

Mr. Chen was a little confused and quickly helped them up. Only then did he recognize that it was Wu Zhang who explained to them how to build a bamboo house yesterday.

"If it weren't for Mr. Chen, our family would probably..." Wu Zhang was very grateful to the Chen family. Yesterday, the Chen family gave him some cotton-padded jackets so that their family would not suffer frostbite in the face of a sudden drop in temperature.

It can be said that their family's lives were saved by the Chen family.

"If Mr. Chen doesn't dislike you, we are willing to serve by your side."

After Wu Zhang discussed with his wife, he decided to seek refuge with Mr. Chen. After all, if he followed them, he would not be bullied.

"This……"

Although Mr. Chen thought about taking Wu Zhang for his own use, he just thought about it and hadn't figured out how to speak. As a result, they ended up...

Seeing that Mr. Chen did not speak, Wu Zhang seemed to be worried about being misunderstood and quickly explained, "Sir Chen, we are not here for food. We just want to get a shelter. We will find a way to provide food. If Mr. Chen gives orders, we will definitely be there." No matter what."

Master Chen was not worried about the food, but he had not examined Wu Zhang's temperament, so he was hesitant.

"Father, agree!" Chen Xue suddenly spoke and whispered in Mr. Chen's ear, "Didn't we discuss it before? Take all these prisoners for our own use."

Yes, they had discussed it before and took all the government servants for their own use. As a result, something happened to Captain Sun and others, but the result was exactly what they wanted.

Most of the government officials listened to them, and now as long as they get rid of all the prisoners, their road to exile can really be regarded as a tourist road.

At that time, no matter what they do, it will be fine. These prisoners are theirs and the secrets will not be leaked in the future.
