I married my nemesis after dressing up as a brother

Chapter 62

Zhao Hong of Xizhou was wearing armor against the wind and snow, galloped across the street on horseback, galloped all the way to the General's Mansion, dismounted from his horse, and ran in.

Pei Zhengchen was dressed in military uniform and stood quietly in front of the defense map of Xizhou, his brows were furrowed, and his face was extremely solemn. There has been heavy snowfall in recent days, and the food and grass here in Xizhou is insufficient. The soldiers may not have a good harvest next year.

Da Yu is now suffering from a snowstorm that is rare in a century, and the coming year must be a famine year. A few days ago, it was reported that thousands of people froze to death in the north, and then there was another plague. Beidi people took advantage of the chaos and raided the border of Beizhou. After destroying three cities, the Xirong people on the Xizhou side are about to move again.

Zhao Hong tried his best to save only the four craftsmen, and the rest were left in the sea with no bones left. He also sent Zhao Hong to search for traces of people at sea a few days ago with his second brother who had just met. , has not yet fallen.

Later, the sea was frozen and the boats could not sail, so people were transferred back to supervise the production of firearms, and another person was sent to look for them. After being missing for such a long time, Pei Zhengchen still did not want to believe that he was buried in the sea.

Su Yuqing was dressed in snow-white fox fur, and brought a cup of hot tea to his hand.

"Don't worry too much, the second brother is born with great abilities, and Ji Ren has his own fortune. It's uncertain which island he drifted to."

His father and father eloped away from home back then, hired a large boat and took a dozen servants to go out to sea, accidentally drifted to an uninhabited island and settled down, and named the island, Worry-free Island .

Later, their family lived on Wuyou Island for more than ten years, living an isolated life. If they needed daily necessities, they would take a boat to this Xizhou City to buy things.

It wasn't until grandfather found them that father brought a group of them home to fulfill his filial piety.

During the years of living in the Su Mansion, my father was ridiculed and ridiculed. My grandfather and the others disliked him as a brother. My father's eyebrows were not bright red. After giving birth to him, there was no more children. My grandfather and the others wanted to force my father Marrying a wife, the grandmother's mother's family wanted to get married with Su's mansion, and they poisoned him and his parents.

Daddy took them back to the island in a fit of rage. Daddy passed away within three years because of too much poison and no medicine. Daddy also died of depression. He survived under Zhengchen's care.

At this moment, Zhao Hong hurried in in a snowstorm.

"General, it's a success, it's a success, the craftsman has made a fire bomb."

Pei Zhengchen was startled, then rushed out, followed by Zhao Hong, Su Yuqing shook his head, and followed slowly.

As soon as he arrived at the place, he heard Shi Wu laugh out loud.

"This stuff is powerful, enough for the Xirong people to drink a pot."

Hearing this voice, Pei Zhengchen went up and slapped him on the head, but his face was filled with uncontrollable excitement, "What are you yelling about, where are things?"

Shi Wu shrunk his head, gritted his teeth and rubbed his head, and pointed to the group of people in front of him.

"It's there."

When everyone saw Pei Zhengchen coming, they automatically gave way, revealing two baskets of black bumps. The black thing was the size of a small watermelon, and they shook it in their hands, asking, "How powerful is this thing?"

Blowing up a city wall is no problem. "A craftsman next to him replied.

Pei Zhengyi repeatedly applauded, and specially took one to experiment, and had someone blow up the small mountain opposite.

When Su Yuqing arrived, he heard a loud bang that shook the sky in fright, and when he looked around, he saw a small hill in the distance collapsed visibly with the naked eye, splashing snow and mist.

There were still snowflakes floating in the sky, falling on the heads of the group of people and turning into water droplets, and then condensed into ice. This group of people didn't feel the cold at all, and they only cared about getting a new weapon for joy. Having this firearm can be regarded as solving Pei Zhengchen's problem What is on my mind is that the roads are blocked by heavy snow now, and the problem that the food and grass cannot be transported to the group of people in Xizhou City has to be solved.

"It's better to go to Biluo Island and move out the food there for emergency." Su Yuqing said.

Biluo Island is an island that they accidentally discovered when they went to Wuyou Island to pay homage to their parents. The plains on this island are vast and fertile, and the grain grown is much better than other places.

"For the military salaries of the soldiers, the imperial court will definitely not transfer the money this year. We can't suffer these soldiers. Let's take out part of the gold that daddy collected on Wuyou Island, and pay the soldiers' military salaries first. So as not to chill everyone’s hearts.”

The next day, Pei Zhengchen sent Zhao Hong to Biluo Island to carry food, and he personally brought a small team to Wuyou Island.

Pei Xing on the island here is very moist every day and Shiyi. Since there is no shortage of oil and salt, he used to pick other condiments on the mountain.

Shi Yi changed the pattern to make the hundred to ten catties of fish caught a few days ago. The two of them had nothing to do after eating every day, so they moved a stone mill to grind wheat and rice flour, and also ground tea seed powder to try to use oil. Made a few bars of soap and came out.

When it doesn't snow, Pei Xing will take him up the mountain to hunt pheasants. The animals in the forest in winter are much more manic than in summer. Today they accidentally encountered a small herd of wild boars. There are about seven or eight of them. It must be okay to get them all back. There is no way to finish it, but it can be smoked into bacon, or made into pure meat old ham, and kept for eating slowly.

This group of wild boars rushed towards them. Pei Xing was afraid that when he was injured, he pulled people behind him one by one, and flew up with a machete in his hand. With a click, the pig's eyes fluttered and fell to the snow.

In this way, Pei Xing's figure is like a ghost, the speed is so fast that people can't catch the figure, leaving only an afterimage, guarding in front of Shi Yi, building a solid wall to block the wild boar's attack Attack, and at the moment of regaining consciousness, the group of wild boars were all knocked to the ground.

I thought the matter was over like this, but suddenly three big worms jumped out from nowhere, surrounded them, opened their bloody mouths, let out a long roar, and felt the bloody smell in their mouths It was all sprayed on his face, and his little face was pale with fright in an instant.

Pei Xing hugged Shi Yi into his arms, his expression became serious, the back of the knife was replaced by a blade, he clenched the machete in his hand, his eyes were extremely sharp, before the three tigers could react, he flew up and jumped towards Looking at one of the most vigorous looking tigers, he slashed straight at it.

Shi Yi's eyes widened, and he stared blankly at this scene. He saw the tiger leaping up, showing its sharp fangs. It was not afraid of the machete, and when it heard the sound of bones cracking, the warm blood splashed. Looking at his face, the old man was split into two pieces abruptly.

He exclaimed in shock, buried his head in Pei Xing's chest, and the hands holding him trembled.

After the tiger was hacked to death, the other two tigers became extremely manic. Pei Xing didn't dare to delay, and jumped out of the encirclement. As soon as he landed, the other two tigers flew towards him at the same time.

Pei Xing tipped his toes, jumped to a height of several feet, stepped on the head of one of the smaller tigers, stomped heavily, and at the same time slashed at the head of the other tiger with a knife. In the past, this time I directly chopped off the whole tiger's head, and after successfully killing another one, I quickly turned around and stabbed down with the machete, straight into the head of the last tiger, before the tiger had time to react Come over, and lose life after a few blows.

Pei Xingxiu pulled out the machete and brought out blood, and his tense expression relaxed. After such a long time, the two of them didn't even know that there were tigers on the mountain. Thanks to their luck, they were not killed on the mountain a few days ago. Attacking, he must have run out from the depths of the forest very hungry now.

His ears became quiet, and Shi Yi poked his head out to take a look. When he saw the three tiger corpses in front of him, he felt trembling in his calves, and threw himself into Pei Xing's arms again, which was still safe in his old Gong's arms.

Pei Xing hugged him and coaxed him for a while, and when he recovered, the two of them started to pull back the wild boars and tigers on the ground. After a trip, I just finished moving those things.

Eight wild boars and three tigers, these are enough for them to deal with for a few days. Pei Xing first sorted out the three tigers. Three tiger skins sewn together are enough to serve as a blanket cover.

It took Pei Xing four days to clean up those wild boars. The weather is not too hot now, so I won’t be afraid if I leave them for a long time. The smell of wild boars is relatively strong. It needs to be marinated to cover the taste. For the ham, another twenty strips of bacon were smoked, and the remaining leftovers were marinated several times to remove the fishy smell, and they could be eaten in soup or stir-fry.

It took more than ten days to clean up the pork. The two men who had nothing to do started to clean the rice piled up in the next room, shelling it bit by bit. Shi Yi used rice to grind some flour and steamed it with sugar. Two big pots of rice cakes, and some rice skins to eat.

At noon this day, rice noodles were mixed with fish meat and kneaded into balls. The big bone soup was simmered in the pot for three hours.

Pei Zhengchen led Shi Wu's thirteen people and paddled on the sea for more than ten days and finally arrived at this worry-free island. His body was as cold as a popsicle, his breath felt cold, and his fingers were stiff.

As soon as the group of people set foot on the island, they smelled a strong smell of food, faintly like a hint of sweet rice fragrance, and then saw the smoke from the green brick house in the middle of the seven houses. .

Everyone's expressions were shocked, and they cheered up. The island was unknown to outsiders who broke into it so suddenly. Pei Zhengchen was startled, feeling a little excited, and ran over in big strides.

When the others saw their general running over in a hurry, they thought there was something wrong and became alert, but they had just stood by the door when they heard a soft and pleasant voice coming from inside.

"Isn't it delicious? I'm amazing."

Well, with such a naive and charming voice, he must be a beautiful little brother, everyone thought.

Hearing this familiar voice, Pei Zhengchen was stunned, his expression visibly excited.

"Well, baby, you are the best."

"Yeah, don't kiss me so oily."

Hey, there is still a master, they haven't married a daughter-in-law yet.Everyone was a little upset.

Pei Zhengchen pushed open the door excitedly, laughed and said excitedly.

"I knew you'd be fine."

The two of them, who were leisurely drinking meatball soup and eating fried rice cakes in the kitchen, looked towards the door together. When they saw Pei Zhengchen whose whole body was frozen into ice, before Shi Yi had time to be happy, a figure flew over , picked him up and laughed and turned around a few times.

"Third brother, why are you here, hahaha, I'm so happy!"

Shi Wu hugged Shi Yi and turned around a few times, the foolish boy was only interested in being happy, and didn't notice that the face of the other person in the kitchen was dark, and there was a gloomy coldness hanging from the corner of his mouth, only colder than the ice in the middle of winter.
