Chapter 2282 Extremely Cold Place

I winked at the old man and said, "It's not enough for outsiders."

The old man was startled, then suddenly realized, and subconsciously stroked his beard. Suddenly he realized that this action seemed a bit rude, and he couldn't help feeling slightly embarrassed.

I didn't care. I smiled and said, "Old man, we have traveled many miles and are a little tired. Can you give us a seat so that we can rest?"

The old man slapped his forehead and said in annoyance: "Look at my dim old eyes, I have no eyesight at all. Come on, sir, please follow me."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to the village chief and led the way to lead Kailan and me into the wooden house.

After sitting down, the old man ordered someone to boil a pot of hot water, took out two relatively clean ceramic cups, poured a cup into each of them, and brought it to them respectfully. Then he took out another slightly dark yellow cup and gave it to himself. I also poured a cup of freshly boiled hot water.

After sitting down, without waiting for the old man to speak, I bowed my hands and said, "May I ask your surname?"

"Bai Jingyu," the old man said with his head slightly bowed.

Hearing this, I was stunned: "Your surname is Bai? Which Bai is it?"

Bai Jingyu said: "Black and white are white."

"What is your relationship with the Bai family in Hancheng, York?"

Hearing the word 'Bai family', he looked slightly gloomy and said with a wry smile: "It has some relationship, but... alas, I was the fourth head of the Bai family."

I rolled my eyes and said with a smile, "Do you know Bai, Yu, and Ying?"

"Bai Yuying?" Bai Jingyu was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, smiled, and said: "Are you kidding me, the elder? There is only Bai Yuying in the Bai family, and there is no one named Bai Yuying."

"Excuse me," I said with my fists in my hands, "Young man, I have no other intention. I am just walking out for safety. I have no choice but to do so."

"No wonder that as an outsider, who has just arrived, he can play with the Bai family at the palm of his hand." Bai Jingyu praised and sighed: "The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared."

"You are so flattering." I blushed a little at these words of praise: "I am just a small person. How dare He De to play with the Bai family? All the things I have done before are really terrible." Doing it on impulse is not worth mentioning.”

After hearing what I said, Kailan, who was sitting beside me, smiled and rolled her eyes at me.

Bai Jingyu sighed for a while, then returned to his normal appearance, coughed slightly, and said: "Sir, I wonder if you are here to find someone? Or to find something? If it is convenient, you can tell me, although I don't know. Although he is talented, he can be regarded as half of the host here. He knows some big and small things, rumors and secrets, and may be able to help you."

"That would be great," I said, "I am worried about the lack of a guide."

Bai Jingyu happily accepted the order and became our guide.

After resting in the wooden house for half an hour, I took Kailan and headed towards the exit of the village with Bai Jingyu.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, the village chief looked worried and kept urging: "Sir, you are old, so you have to pay attention to your safety. How about you let me go with you so that you can take care of me?"

"How can this be done?" Bai Jingyu exhaled a cold breath and said, "This time, I have been entrusted by His Majesty to carry out confidential matters. How can I bring outsiders with me? If the secret is leaked, don't talk about you and me. Life, even this village, will turn into dust overnight, go back."

He waved his hand.

The village chief sighed deeply and said, "Then you should take care of yourself."

"I know, go back quickly." Bai Jingyu waved twice more, then turned around and strode forward.

I held Kailan's little hand, quickly followed Bai Jingyu's pace, and headed towards the destination.

On the way, Kailan whispered: "The way the man next to the village chief looks at me is really disgusting."

"That's because you're beautiful. If you had an upturned nose, pea eyes, and a toad mouth, he wouldn't look at you, and he might even stay away from you."

"That's what you look like!" Kailan said angrily.

After a few seconds of silence, she added, "I'm a little worried that that young man will follow us."

"Come if you want. Anyway, I have warned them both inside and outside of my words. If you dare to follow them again, you will be committing crimes against the wind, and the village will not be able to stay."

Bai Jingyu, who was walking in front, paused, let out a weak sigh, and continued to stride forward without expressing any thoughts.

As a member of the Bai family, he has long been aware of such things. Even if he can't bear it, he will not stop him. After all, he is a member of the Bai family. If he takes action rashly, it will cause chaos to the family, which is tantamount to causing trouble to the family. The Bai family was hit hard and even worse.

At that time, how can the Bai family accommodate him? How could his brothers, sisters, wives, concubines, and children tolerate him?

The most likely outcome is to be betrayed by the family, or even have to be exterminated by the children.

Thinking about his own children, in order to protect the interests of the family and maintain the continuation of the family, Bai Jingyu felt horrified by the pain and despair at that moment when he clenched the sword and slashed it hard on his own neck.

This is the first time I have passed through this location in Seoul, York. As far as the eye can see, the ground is covered with snow that is no deeper than a finger.

When you step on it, it makes a soft creaking sound.

"By the way, Kailan, I forgot to ask you, did you ever see snow when you lived in Airei City?"

Kailan looked at the snowy scenery around him and said casually: "I've seen it before, but not many. This is the first time it's so thick."

"The snow is not too thick yet." Bai Jingyu slowed down, took a deep breath, and exhaled a burst of white mist: "It will take a few days for heavy snow to fall."

"How big will the snow be?" Kailan asked.

"At most three fingers thick." Bai Jingyu gestured, walking slowly, wiping both sides of his cheeks, clasping his hands, and took a breath: "This is the capital city, where there is heavy rain and snow. Further north, at the national border, there is only It’s so cold and the ground is so cold and the snow is so white. A single snowfall can last two to three fingers, but when a heavy snowstorm arrives, it can accumulate to a depth of more than one meter.”

"More than one meter deep!" Kailan exclaimed, "Is it so scary?"

"This is not scary, little girl." Bai Jingyu chuckled and said, "The really scary place is not here. It is in Dashai City. I heard that some towns in the northernmost part of Dashai City can usually get one meter of snow." , when exaggerating, two or three meters is not a problem.”

Kailan's face turned pale with shock, and she hugged my arms tighter.

After a while, she asked again: "Then, is there anything more scary?"

"Yes." Bai Jingyu took a deep breath and pointed to the distance: "It is said that somewhere in the sea, there is an extremely cold land that is covered with ice and frost all year round. The temperature is so low that even the sea water flowing there is... So frozen that I can no longer bleed.”

“If water can’t flow anymore, is it still called water?”

Bai Jingyu smiled and said nothing.

I pinched the tip of her nose and said with a smile: "Silly, water that cannot flow is no longer water, but ice."
