Chapter 1,197 Finding the Road
? Yun Bixue knew that these native villagers believed this in their bones. She couldn't say it was superstition. After all, it was difficult to use scientific theories to change a person who had thought for decades.
So she could only say: "Old man, please, help me. I really can't think of any other way. I want to find my husband. I haven't seen or heard from him for a long time." "I'm really afraid of losing him. I can't live without him."
Grandpa is gone. If Xie Limo is never found again, she doesn't know how long she can carry it.
She can no longer bear the feeling of loss, which will make her collapse. She is also an ordinary person at heart. If all her emotions collapse to the extreme, she will collapse.
Yun Bixue said, her eyes were red and tears were shining, "Old man, if there is a mountain god, I will let him see my sincerity, and he will help me find my Mr. Xie."
Yun Bixue talked for a long time, and the old man was also very embarrassed, "Girl, don't be sad first. You have such a good feeling for your husband that you don't care about danger for him. You are a good girl. As you said, the mountain god can see If I see your sincerity, I will help you find it.”
After talking for a long time, the old man agreed: "I'll prepare something and go with you!"
"Thank you, uncle, thank you, auntie!" Yun Bixue thanked her so much that she almost cried. She was really excited, because with the help of someone who knew the terrain well, she would have more hope of finding Xie Limo.
"It's okay, girl, you are a good girl, that's why everyone is willing to help you."
The old man found some things, held them with a shovel, brought four dogs with him, and put on a set of bright red cotton clothes.
"Old man, these?"
"Only red clothes are easy to spot in the snow. These are necessary for going to the mountains with my studies. I used to raise eight of them, and then I went to the mountains again and again, and four of them died. I, too, got sick. After one game, my health is not good and my legs are a little bad." The old man smiled honestly and gently stroked the four dogs with loving eyes.
Yun Bixue looked at it, feeling a little sad for some reason, "Old man, I..." She must have been so heartbroken when four of them died after she was raised so big. Moreover, she saw that her old man was indeed limping when he walked.
"Girl, there's no need to say anything. Since I agreed, I'll help you find it. Do you have anything with you for your husband? It's best to bring his scent with you. The dog can lead the way based on the scent!"
Yun Bixue quickly took out a handkerchief from her backpack, which he often used. The four dogs sniffed it before she put it away.
After saying goodbye to her aunt and several villagers, Yun Bixue and her old man set out on the road to find Xie Limo.
The further they walked into the ravine, the more rugged and bumpy the road became. Only after actually walking here did Yun Bixue realize how cold and dangerous it was.
While walking, the old man explained to Yun Bixue the knowledge on the road and how to identify the direction and distance based on nature.
As he talked, the old man also talked about the changes in Guixian County, "This originally belongs to the south. The climate has changed abnormally in the past two years. Our Guixian County has also begun to accumulate snow year after year. At first, I was excited to see the snow, but then I felt I would rather not have so much snow, because in the low-lying areas of the ravines and valleys, the sun cannot reach it and it will not melt. In the past few years, in the winter, several villages have been buried and many people have died."
Yun Bixue's heart was lifted as she listened, "Doesn't the country care?"
"I care, but it doesn't work. This year's decent rescue was only possible. I heard that it was thanks to the Minister of State who came from the imperial capital. He is really a good man!"
