Traveling through ancient times

"Brother Fei Mo, you probably don't know me yet. I like to be free and don't like to be bound. There is a saying that goes, don't let rumors and gossip mess up your heart, don't let other people's gossip influence you."

Gu Dalian looked at Luo Feimo deeply. At this moment, she seemed like a queen to him!

Luo Feimo pursed his lips. After all, he was only a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. No matter how steady he looked on the surface, he was still a child at heart!

He felt a little panicked and he didn't know how to express himself. He had been fighting on the battlefield with his father and brothers since he was eight years old and he really didn't know how to get along with girls!

Gu Dalian found that the handsome boy seemed a little depressed. This was the reaction a normal boy should have. That aggrieved expression was somewhat similar to that of little Gu Lun!

"Okay, I'm just talking, you look so upset, let's eat something first and then go out!"

Luo Feimo nodded. Sometimes, he felt that he was always lacking in confidence in front of Gu Dalian, and his words and actions were out of order!

This little girl sometimes speaks bluntly, which makes people feel a little embarrassed. Alas, I don’t know what’s wrong with me? I feel happy when I am criticized!

The two of them picked the vegetables themselves, and Gu Dalian kneaded the dough and made rolled noodles. They also fried tomatoes, peppers and eggs, and the noodles were particularly flavorful!

After the meal, the awkward atmosphere disappeared. Since it was the middle of the night, the two decided not to go out. They each took a shower, changed into pajamas, and each occupied a bedroom to rest!

That night, Gu Dalian slept very well, but Luo Feimo tossed and turned. Sometimes he regretted being too talkative, and sometimes he felt that he was right to remind him. He was completely conflicted. When he finally came to his senses, it was already past midnight!

When the alarm rang, it was already six o'clock in the morning. Gu Dalian changed into men's clothes, disguised herself, and then walked out of the bedroom!

Luo Feimo just came out and startled Gu Dalian:

"Oh my, when did a national treasure appear in my space?"

Luo Feimo pursed his lips and raised his hand, trying to cover his dark circles, but he heard Gu Dalian burst into laughter. He simply put his hand down and looked at Gu Dalian with a resentful face!

The culprit had no idea that Luo Feimo became like this because of her. She thought that Luo Feimo was used to his bed and couldn't sleep!

Luo Feimo was a little annoyed, but more importantly, he was troubled as to when did he become so sentimental?

Luo Feimo pulled Gu Dalian's sleeve and walked out of the space. There was already some movement outside. The two did not waste any time and hurried out of the room. The soldiers were already ready to go in the cold wind!

General Han looked at the two men and said, "I told you to hurry up and ride your horses. It's a bit gloomy today. I'm afraid there will be heavy snow. Let's try to move forward as much as possible!"

Gu Dalian's heart sank: "General Han, how many days do we have left to leave Hebei County?"

"It's hard to say. If the snow is light, we can walk for another three days. If it snows heavily, we can only stay at the post station, and we may not be able to leave for seven days!"

Gu Dalian felt heavy in her heart. The snow was even worse for the Northwest Army. She said anxiously:

"How about General Luo and I take some people and hurry up, so that the post station won't be full during the heavy snow, and the soldiers will suffer!"

General Han thought this was a good idea and said:

"That's fine. You can take 500 people and vehicles and go ahead. We can all go to different post stations. That's also a solution!"

"But there is a section of road ahead. It is said that there are bandits on the edge of Yandang Mountain. You'd better be careful to avoid being tricked!"

Gu Dalian nodded quickly, and together with Luo Feimo, selected 500 soldiers, pushed 300 carts of food and supplies, and started marching quickly!

At the beginning, although it was a north wind, the wind was not very strong. When everyone arrived at the next post station, there was only sporadic snow. Everyone replenished their supplies, ate some food, and continued on their journey!

The grain carts were all covered with oilcloth, so there was no need to worry about snow. The snow particles blowing in the wind would hurt people's faces, so Gu Dalian gave everyone a dog-skin hat to keep warm!

The inside of the semicircular helmet is made of cloth and cotton, and the surface of the hat is made of black velvet to make it more beautiful.

The front hat face and back hat band are made of dog skin, and there are large hat ears on both sides.

There is a small hole above the ear of the hat, which is convenient for hearing and breathing.

If you want to block the wind, you can make a small hat earmuff. When the weather is cold, tie the big hat earmuffs tightly to protect your chin and face;

When the weather is hot, lift up the small hat ears, turn up the big hat ears, roll them up, and tie them with a hatband.

The soldiers had never expected to receive such treatment. Even in the severe winter, they felt warm in their hearts. Everyone felt sorry for the horses pulling the goods, and the cavalrymen even tied their own horses in front of the cart to help pull it!

The soldiers pushed the cart together, and it seemed to be going faster than before!

It was two hours later when we arrived at the next post station. Luo Feimo looked at the route map and said:

"Let's take a short break. At this speed, it should take more than two hours to get to the next post station! It's a big post station, and we can rest there when the time comes!"

There were few people at the post station, so the soldiers got fodder to feed the horses themselves, while Qi Huli helped to boil water.

Gu Dalian put a dozen drops of jade liquid in it. Although it can't cure serious diseases, it can help the soldiers improve their physical strength! Even the horse feed was sprinkled with some!

When we set out again, it was snowing heavily and the snow under our feet was as thick as the sole of a shoe!

No one dared to delay and started the forced march. The strange thing was that they didn’t even feel how cold or tired they were!

Walking in the snow is like a battle. Every step requires overcoming the resistance of the snow, as if walking against the wind. Even so, neither the carriage nor the people slowed down!

There is another reason why Luo Feimo and the others are so anxious to move forward!

Since the bandits are lurking in Yingdang Mountain, they will never let go of such a big target as the grain cart. It would be better to lure the bandits out of their hole and catch them all in one fell swoop!

"In another half an hour, we will reach the post station. Let's work harder!"

Luo Feimo used his inner strength to convey a message to the people behind him to boost morale!

When everyone heard this, they were greatly encouraged and their speed increased again!

When we finally arrived at the post station, we found that it seemed empty!

The postmaster came over and smiled, leading everyone into the gate. Another postman directed the carriage to stop at the stable. Soon someone else came over to help feed the horses, unload the carriage, and give the horses a good rest!

"My fellow soldiers, although our post station is large, it suffered a disaster half a year ago, and food has become a big problem. Although our post station has some rations, it can't feed too many people!"

Luo Feimo said calmly:

"It's okay. Just heat up all the kangs so that everyone has a place to rest. We can take care of the food ourselves!"

The postmaster bowed and nodded repeatedly, then walked out!

Luo Feimo ordered all the soldiers to rest and there was no need to guard this place. After everyone had rested, Gu Dalian and Luo Feimo looked at each other. Before they could say anything, Qi Huli said:

"Master, something is wrong!"
