Before departure, a simple farewell ceremony was held at the crematorium under the chairmanship of Ling Zhonghai.

He left as if he had lost his parents, with a solemn expression.

The remaining one looked relieved, and two almost laughed out loud.

The White Lotus rebels were so powerful that if the usually weak government troops failed to hold out, only one in ten would survive and return to the crematorium.

Many people who came to the crematorium had seen what the defeated officers and soldiers looked like.

That is an existence more evil than evil spirits.

Ling Zhonghai said a lot of nonsense, trying to speak in an official tone but failing to do so properly, and it was neither fish nor fowl. However, most of the cremators could not understand him.

But in the end, he was honest and gave each of the crematorium workers two coins of silver as a starting point.

The cremators who were chosen by lottery set out, with the officers on duty following behind. Li Tie's face was filled with reluctance, but he still said to Ling Zhonghai, "Boss, can I not go?"

For this dispatch, the Bingmasi required each crematorium to send two on-duty officers to lead the team. One Xu Changshou was not enough, so another one had to be sent. Li Tie was unlucky and was chosen.

Ling Zhonghai said with a serious face, "What are you talking about? Don't you know what desertion is?"

Li Tie suddenly became dispirited and didn't dare to speak in anger.

Deserters will be executed immediately and their entire clan will be exiled!

"That's enough. A man who shrinks back is not like a real man." Ling Zhonghai scolded him, and then said, "Let's go. Don't worry about home. Your sister-in-law and the girl will take good care of you. If you can't come back, I will take care of you."

"Um?!"

Li Tie was suddenly horrified and stammered: "No...Brother, we are brothers, you you you..."

"Oh, let's go. We'll be late." At this time, Xu Changshou came over, dragged Li Tie away and stuffed him into the car.

Compared to Li Tie's panic, Xu Changshou was calm and even felt secretly happy.

No matter whether you draw one or two, he is indispensable.

The convoy set off in the snow and wind.

"Dingling bell~~"

On the eaves of the chimney of Room 7, horse bells rang melodiously, as if saying farewell.

Ling Zhonghai and Gao Linkun watched the team go further and further away.

After a long moment, Gao Linkun looked at Ling Zhonghai and said, "Boss, why did you say that to Tiezi? I think his face turned green."

Ling Zhonghai slowly exhaled a breath of white air, gathered his sleeves and said, "Don't provoke him so much. If something happens, I'm really worried that he won't be able to come back."

"That's... true."

Gao Linkun suddenly understood and nodded. At the end, his eyes rolled and he grinned, "Tiezi's woman looks like firewood, boring. But the one Xu Changshou likes... hehehe."

"Tofu Xishi?" Ling Zhonghai's eyes lit up slightly.

The two looked at each other, and obscene smiles gradually appeared on their faces.

"Brother, don't fight with me."

"Bullshit, I'm the boss."

"No, brother, you are not being righteous."

"Do you still want to hang around? Believe it or not, I will get my buddy back now."

"Then... that big pot in Qinhe must belong to me."

"make a deal."

……

A total of twelve people set out from the East City Crematorium.

Ten cremators and two leading officials.

The team was not large, with two mule carts, one for carrying supplies and the other for carrying people.

There are also two mounts, a little donkey and a little yellow cow.

Xu Changshou rode a little donkey and Qin He rode a little yellow ox.

There is no horse.

There was no way around it. Due to years of war, important military supplies such as horses had long been confiscated by the imperial court.

All in all, the small yellow cattle from Qinhe are of higher quality.

There's nothing we can do about it, since he's the only cremator with a mount.

A Lamborghini consumes the energy of ten steamed buns per 100 kilometers.

Apart from his love of destroying things and causing trouble, he has no other problems.

Soon, the team from the East City Crematorium joined forces with the teams from the West, North, South and the Crematorium, and the team became quite large.

Feiyu Wei Er led the team with the sword to kill Baishou and headed south along the canal.

The White Lotus chose an excellent time to launch its rebellion.

First, the people were starving and cold, and many of them rebelled.

Second, the canal began to freeze and ships could not pass through.

Military supplies can only be dispatched by land, which greatly reduces convenience.

If the canal is passable, it would take two days to reach Linqing by going downstream, and five days to reach the city of Jinan.

But once the canal freezes, it will take at least half a month.

As the team grew, the originally depressing atmosphere eased a little, and the snow stopped at that time.

The cremators all stuck their heads out of the carriages.

"Brother Qin, didn't you sell your cow?" Liu Sanjin looked at the little yellow cow and asked curiously.

"I bought it back." Qin He spoke calmly even when he was nervous.

"Brother Qin brought a big turtle with him when he went out." Li Quezi stared at the big turtle lying on the cow's head.

"These are our belongings. If we don't take them with us, we will starve to death." Qin He said.

"What a big piece of meat. It will definitely taste good if stewed." Liu Sanjin talked about meat every other sentence.

At this time, the big turtle stretched out its head, made a "tui" sound, and actually spat at Liu Sanjin.

This little thing is not very smart.

"Hey, hey, hey, this... this turtle has become a spirit, it's spitting." Old Liang looked extremely surprised.

Even Xu Changshou was curious and asked, "Qin He, where did you come from?"

Qin He thought to himself, why is your question so awkward?

But he still replied, "I caught it accidentally one night while taking a bath in the canal. It was huge but I didn't know how to handle it. I've kept it ever since."

Big Turtle: “?”

"It's not easy to make turtle dishes. You need to add some spices to suppress the fishy smell, otherwise the smell will be too strong. But spices are not easy to buy. There are only a few shops in the city that sell them." Xu Changshou said.

"Which ones?" Qin He asked.

Big Turtle: “???”

"Taeheng Grocery Store and Thirteen Hong Warehouse definitely have them. They have a maritime merchant background and can get spices from Southeast Asia, but they're a bit expensive."

Xu Changshou paused, as if remembering something, and suddenly said seriously, "This reminds me of a secret dietary therapy dish. It's said that if you feed ginseng to a turtle, and wait for the turtle to absorb all the medicinal properties of the ginseng into its meat, then add more than a dozen herbs to boil. The resulting turtle soup has the effect of clearing the mind and refreshing the spirit, and can cure hysteria."

Qin He: “?”

Big Turtle: “???”

"This is the exclusive secret recipe of Doctor Qiao Daosan. So, when I come back, I will go to Doctor Qiao to get the medicine according to the prescription. You buy some ginseng to feed this turtle." Xu Changshou took the responsibility.

When the big turtle heard this, he could no longer hold back. He kicked his legs wildly, jumped off the cow's back, and rushed into the canal.

"Godfather, help me~~"
