Judging from the current situation, a considerable portion of the energy collected by Yingshan has been used after opening the alien space, maintaining the operation of the channel, and taking out the medicine.

If the system could not now collect energy from other places in succession, it would have to give up its own optimization and repair.

There was nothing wrong with the system's use of energy. Jiang Tuan didn't fail to understand it, he just felt distressed.

She endured the hardships of traveling and was worried about Jiang Huai's illness. She finally gathered so much energy, but it was gone before he could react. It was so heartbreaking!

But what can he do no matter how heartbroken he is? Can he prevent the system from opening the alternate dimension, saving Jiang Huai, or repairing the system?

None of them. All he could do was try to comfort himself and tell himself that these were necessary investments and he would be able to get them back in the future.

After comforting himself, Jiang Tuan had nothing to ask, so he let the system optimize and repair it.

Jiang Tuan still felt a little uncomfortable after the system left. He rolled around on the kang with the quilt in his arms. Only when he felt the warmth of the kang did he feel better.

Yes, that's right. The Daxia merchant also arranged a kang in the house he built on Yingshan Mountain. The kang had been lit before Jiang Huai came, otherwise the other party's illness would be more serious with the current temperature of the grassland.

After lying on the kang for a while, he began to get dressed.

For Jiang Tuan, if there are difficulty levels for wearing clothes in the hot summer, wearing summer and autumn clothes is considered ordinary level, wearing formal wear is hell level, then wearing winter clothes is a difficulty level in between the two.

In order to keep warm, he wore a lot of thick clothes. After putting on all the clothes, he would put on a thick cloak made of animal fur. Every time he put it on, he felt like he was doing a moderate intensity exercise.

He had too many clothes and they were too hard to wear. He missed his thick down jacket very much. If he wasn't afraid of being too eye-catching, he would really like to wear it. It would be so light and convenient!

After finally getting dressed, Jiang Tuan opened the door. The cold air blew in his face and made him shiver.

Looking at the bright sun hanging high in the sky, he felt a little strange. Why did the temperature feel lower than before when the sun was so bright?

However, since he didn't have a thermometer, he wasn't sure if his feeling was accurate. Or maybe it was normal for him to feel a little cold after just coming out of a warm house.

After this little episode, Jiang Tuan went to Jiang Huai's room. As soon as he entered, he saw Jiang Huai walking around in the room.

"Why don't you lie down a little longer? You need to rest more so that you can get better."

Seeing Jiang Tuan dressed like a clumsy little bear and walking in with heavy steps, Jiang Huai smiled.

"Uncle, I've been lying down for so many days and I feel really uncomfortable. I really can't lie down any longer. Besides, your medicine is very effective and I feel much better now. Moving more will help me regain my strength."

Jiang Tuan saw that Jiang Huai's complexion had improved a lot, and nodded: "Yes, you are right, it does look much better. But you can't take it lightly, you need to eat more to see how much weight you have lost."

Jiang Huai felt like vomiting when he heard that he needed to take supplements. Why did he move around? Besides the fact that lying down was really uncomfortable, it was also because Ning Baifei said that he had lost weight due to hunger and needed to take supplements.

The other party and Baiguo prepared a lot of food that would help his body recover. As long as he didn't sleep, they would get some for him every hour.

He felt like he was being fed like a pig, and was really afraid that he would get so fat when he returned that it would be difficult for him to even ride a horse.

Not wanting Jiang Tuan to persuade him to eat more, Jiang Huai quickly changed the subject: "We plan to leave tomorrow, uncle, do you think it's okay?"

Just go, Jiang Tuan has no objection.

Although he had no worries about food and drink here and no one would let him suffer any grievances, it was cold and desolate here. In order not to attract too much attention from others, he did not dare to go out and communicate with those businessmen. It was really a bit depressing that he could only stroll around the house every day.

And perhaps because he was too close to the Huns, he always felt that this place was very dangerous, and the sooner he left, the less sense of crisis he would feel.

"Sure, but how about you? Can your body handle it?"

"Uncle, I'm really much better now. I'm fine."

Since they had made the decision to pack up a bit at night, the group planned to leave the next day. But when Jiang Tuan got up and went out the next day, the sunny sky had turned a little gloomy.

Traveling in such weather is not a good choice, but someone in the caravan who knows the weather said that it would not be a big problem and at most there would be some light snow. Seeing that some caravans left regardless of the weather changes, Jiang Tuan and his companions thought about it and finally decided to leave.

But after walking for half a day, the weather, which was just a little gloomy before, suddenly became dark, and heavy snow fell without any buffer or hesitation.

Looking at the snow balls as big as goose feathers, Jiang Jiang was very worried. He wanted to ask the system whether this snow was the heavy snow recorded in history. After calling twice, he remembered that the system could no longer be contacted.

If it was just snow, it wouldn't have affected our trip too much, but soon a strong wind started to blow, and the wind mixed with snowflakes quickly turned into a blizzard.

Captain Jiang had never seen such heavy snow in his life, let alone this kind of terrifying blizzard. When he lifted the curtains, he couldn't even see the vehicles in front clearly.

Looking at the vast expanse of white snow and listening to the whistling wind, he felt a little nervous when he thought that they were the only group of people on the journey for half a day.

Suddenly he saw Ning Bai riding a horse towards him: "My Lord, the snow is too strong and there is no place to hide nearby, so we must return to Eagle Mountain."

Jiang Tuan knew that what Ning Bai said was right. When they came here, due to Jiang Huai's illness, they rode at full speed from Zhen'an City to Yingshan, which took them almost two days. Now facing such a heavy snowstorm, it would be difficult for them to return to Zhen'an City in a short time.

If this snow was the first heavy snow recorded in history, and if they insisted on going, the most likely scenario was that the entire caravan would be trapped on the road, and then starve or freeze to death due to lack of food, drink and warmth.

So the best way is to go back to Eagle Mountain. No matter what, there is at least a place to shelter from the wind and snow and food. Although the conditions are worse, there is no danger to life.

Thinking of this, he immediately agreed loudly to Ning Bai's proposal.

However, even their journey back was not smooth. The snow was too heavy and a thick layer of snow fell in a short time, making the convoy's progress more difficult and slower.

They didn't know how long they walked, but the snow had already reached above their insteps and was heading toward their calves, and they were finally not far from Eagle Mountain.

If the blizzard hadn't affected their vision, they should have been able to see the houses at the foot of Eagle Mountain.
