Chapter 98 Signal Bomb

"Oops! It's a signal flare!"

Seeing the red light breaking through the felt bag, Shen Yinxing reacted instantly.

The assassin with his hands tied deliberately rushed to the carbon fire, just to ignite the signal flare on his body.

Judging from the sound and brightness of the signal flare, the person receiving the signal is estimated to be within a range of fifteen kilometers.

Thinking of this, Shen Yinxing's eyes darkened, this is troublesome.

There was a faint smell of burnt barbecue in the air, and the back of the assassin lying in the charcoal fire was on fire. He howled in pain while rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames behind him by rolling.

"Ahhhh!"

The burned assassin whimpered and writhed, his facial muscles twisted into a ball in pain, the people around him looked at him coldly, and no one wanted to go up to help.

The assassin rolled twice on the ground, and then just rolled to the position where Obscure Moon was standing.

Obscure Moon was not far from the coal pile, so the assassin rolled to her feet in the blink of an eye.

No one expected that the assassin, who was still rolling and howling on the ground one second, suddenly rose from the ground the next second, and then broke the ropes of his hands, and the lightning moved towards the moon.

Just now in the charcoal fire, the assassin cleverly used fire to melt the rope tied to his hand.

The eyes of the assassin who rushed towards Ouyue were full of determination and cruelty, and in a flash, his big hands covered with thick calluses had already twisted towards Ooyue's neck.

The incident happened so suddenly that the young Obscure Moon couldn't dodge at all.

But there was no trace of panic in Ozuki's eyes, she stared fixedly at the assassin in front of her, with a curved mouth.

As early as the moment the assassin attacked Ozuki, Shen Yinxing opened a barrier around her, so Ozuki didn't panic at all.

However, the other guards in the felt bag didn't know this, they only thought that Mizuki's neck would be broken in a second.

A guard who was good at wielding knives immediately drew his knives, shouted loudly, and then flew towards the assassin's head to slice off.

"and many more!"

Shen Yinxing hurriedly stopped it, but it was obviously too late.

The guard raised the knife and dropped it. With a flash of cold light, a red line shot out in the air, and the moment the red line landed, it splashed into a pool of blood.

The assassin's head also rolled down, spun a few times on the ground, and stopped at the foot of the moon.

Although this is not the first time Obscure Moon has seen the head of a dead person, the scene is still too bloody, and Obscure Moon is so shocked that she stays where she is, covering her small mouth.

This assassin actually wanted to die, so he attacked Obscure Moon.

Shen Yinxing also understood this, so she hurriedly called to stop just now.

The assassin had just released a flare, so he must be sending some kind of message to his companions.

Shen Yinxing glanced at the two corpses on the ground, and shook his head. Now it's unknown whether his companions are going to attack or retreat.

In desperation, he accidentally killed someone and cut off an important clue. The guard also blamed himself a little.

But Ge Jiamu patted her on the shoulder, "It's okay, you did a good job, Lan Duo is more important than those clues."

Obscure Moon also recovered from the bloody scene, nodded and said: "Yeah, soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, I want to see who dares to attack the grassland princess in Dayuan territory."

Shen Yinxing said in a deep voice: "People within fifteen kilometers can see the signal flare. If they make a move, they will arrive within two hours."

Ge Jiamu held his bandaged arm and immediately said, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go!"

The wind and snow urged people, and the team set off.

The prairie cavalry cleared the way in front, Ge Jiamu and the carriage team walked in the middle, and the rest of the Xu family wore cotton clothes and nestled in the carriage.

Xu Ajiu rode a little donkey at the end of the team, and a few goshawks hovered in the air, watching out for movements around them.

Shen Yinxing took Xu Jia and Xu Wei to guard the two sides of the team, in case someone attacked from the flank.

Obscure Moon was wrapped in a fluffy red cloak, and was hugged by Xu Jingyang and curled up in the carriage.

The cold wind whistled in the ear, and the wind and snow outside the car were faint, and the wind was blowing like a knife.

Not long after they walked, the hands and faces of the cavalry were red with cold, and a thick layer of frost formed on their eyebrows.

The temperature inside the carriage was also low, the thin walls of the carriage could not block the air-conditioning at all, so Xu Jingyang put some charcoal fire in an earthen jar and put it on the carriage, which gave him some warmth.

Because Ozuki was afraid of carbon monoxide poisoning, he asked Dad to raise a corner of the curtain to ventilate.

Mischievous snowflakes and the cold wind drifted in through the door curtain.

Obscure Moon looked up, the curtain of the door revealed the skylight, and there were a few white plums falling, which was very poetic.

Obscure Moon breathed out into the frozen red fist, the snowy day is beautiful, but it is also really cold.

Suddenly, Shen Yinxing, who was patrolling on a white horse, came back, then lifted the door curtain, and handed Miyue a bunch of red fruits.

The bunches of fiery red berries are exquisite and lovely, full of plump ones, with clean white snow falling on them.

This is a kind of berry called sorghum bubble, which grows in the wild in winter. It has a sweet and sour taste and is full of juice.

Shen Yinxing knew that Yuyue liked to eat sweets. When she was patrolling around, she saw sorghum bubbles growing in the field, so she picked out a bunch of sorghum bubbles that were the largest, reddest, and full of water, and brought them to Obscure Moon.

"Hee hee, thank you, mother~"

Obscure Moon took the long string of fiery red sorghum bubbles, and then smiled sweetly at Shen Yinxing.

Obscure Moon rolled her eyes, and the dimples on her face were revealed, which made Shen Yinxing's heart soften.

Ahhhh, her baby girl is so cute, she will protect this smile forever.

Afterwards, Shen Yinxing put down the door curtain, rode forward, and continued to patrol around.

When Haoyue was taking sorghum bubbles, she also noticed that Shen Yinxing's scratched hands were already a little red and swollen from the cold.

There are barbed thorns on the branches of sorghum pao. If you are not careful when picking them, they will scratch the back of your hand.

Originally, Shen Yinxing could open a barrier to resist the attack of wind and snow, but because Ge Jiamu had been targeted by assassins, just in case, Shen Yinxing had been using a barrier to protect Ge Jiamu.

Obscure Moon picked a fiery red berry covered with falling snow and put it into her mouth. She sipped the crystal clear and plump sorghum bubbles with her tongue, and the sweet and sour juice exploded in her mouth instantly.

The carriage is instantly filled with fresh fruity flavors, and the sweet and sour berries make your mouth water.

The sour taste of the berries is stronger than the sweet taste, but it stimulates the appetite very much. One after another, I can't stop eating.

Xu Jingyang didn't like sweets, so he told Ozuki to eat slowly, and was careful not to be hooked by the barb.

Through the curtain, Ozuki turned her head to look at Ajiu who was walking at the end of the line. She remembered that her brother also liked to eat sour fruit, so she wanted to give it to him.

Xu Ajiu rode a little donkey and Er Gouzi at the end, and the wind and snow wrapped around him. Even though he was wearing a thick cotton coat and a warm felt hat, he still couldn't stop the wind and snow from attacking.

Ajiu's originally pale cheeks were flushed red from the cold, and her eyelashes were covered with fine icicles.

As soon as the eyes blinked, the fine icicles on the eyelashes began to fall down.

Originally, Ozuki wanted to call him in, but Ajiu said that it was convenient to interact with the cavalry outside, and if they found the enemy, they could immediately notify everyone.

So Ajiu rode a little donkey and Er Gouzi at the end of the team.

Ozuki wanted to find her brother, so she jumped out of the carriage with a thud, but the snow on the ground was already waist deep.

With a jump of her short legs, her whole body was submerged directly into the snow, leaving only a round felt hat and two big eyes exposed.

This scene made Xu Jingyang laugh out loud, "Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, you are so short, how dare you jump directly."

Xu Jingyang was not in a hurry to fish for Yunyue, he let her flop around in the snowy sea, watching jokes from the sidelines.

Hearing the unscrupulous laughter above her head, Ozuki, who was thumping in the snow, stopped moving for an instant, then stared at Xu Jingyang pretending to be angry, and pursed her mouth dissatisfiedly.

Seeing that the baby girl was upset, Xu Jingyang laughed and reached out to fish up Miyue, and then patted the snow off Miyue's body like a rag doll.

Ajiu saw that her sister seemed to be looking for her, so she rode over on a donkey whistling.

Ozuki noticed that Ajiu's hands were tightly clasped, and there seemed to be something in her hands.

She poked her head around, and found that Ajiu's hands were red with cold, and there was a shivering little sparrow snuggled up.

Ajiu touched the head of the little bird in his arms, and then spit out a few words: "Its legs are frozen."

I saw that the bird's feet were stuck together with a branch, and a thick layer of ice crystals formed in the middle.

The little bird on the side of the road just saw a convoy passing by and struggled to fly away from the branch, but its feet were frozen on the branch, and no matter how hard it struggled, it was useless.

Ajiu noticed its strangeness, so she broke off a branch and took it down, and then tried to melt the ice on its feet with the warmth of her palm.

Obscure Moon saw that her brother's hands were also turning white from the cold, without thinking about it, she raised Ah Jiu's hand to give him a breath.

"Ha~"

Ozuki's movements made Ah Jiu's eyes widen, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Brother, leave this little bird to me, it will be warmer in the carriage."

As Ozuki said, she breathed a sigh of relief at Ajiu's hand, then took out half a string of fiery red sorghum bubbles and stuffed it into his hand, "Brother, eat it, this fruit is sour."

"Um"

Ajiu always listened to Ozuki's words very much, he nodded, then handed the little sparrow to Ozuki, and took half a bunch of sorghum bubbles.

Ozuki noticed that Ajiu's hands already had chilblains, and the red bumps on the back of his fair hands were particularly eye-catching.

At this moment, Ozuki suddenly remembered that there were several bags of warm babies in the space.

Therefore, Ozuki took the warm baby out of the space, then tore open the packaging bag, handed it to Ajiu and said, "Brother, stick this warm baby in your clothes, just stick it on your chest, and your body will warm up in a while." .”

Ajiu nodded, and took Nuan Baobao again.

Watching her brother put Nuan Bao on, Miyue returned to the carriage with Xiao Xueque in her arms.

It's really a pain to rush on the road in heavy snow.

Obscure Moon frowned and thought, just after the snow fell, everyone's hands and feet began to suffer from frostbite, and the next journey will be icy and snowy, how can they bear it.

Seeing A Niang and her brother suffering from the cold in the ice and snow, she felt a little uncomfortable.

It's a pity that there are not many warm babies, and there are only two pieces left in the space backpack, and this warm baby can only heat up for a few hours, and it can't withstand the chill of the wind and snow at all.

Unless there are a huge number of warm babies, they can be covered all over the body, and then replaced as soon as they don't get hot.

Obscure Moon's eyebrows twisted into twists, where can she get so many warm babies.

"Baby emperor, do you still have the warm baby you gave your brother just now? My old cold legs are broken again, and it hurts from throbbing."

Xu Jingyang poked Luyue's little face, then asked with a smile on the side.

Thinking of falling into the snow pit just now, and this person was actually watching a joke beside him, Obscure Moon became very angry.

Obscure Moon gave Dad a white look, and then said angrily: "No more, you are in pain."

"No more?" Xu Jingyang scratched his head: "Can you make one?"

A word to wake up the dreamer, yes, the warm baby is gone, can you do it yourself?

Ozuki's mind recalled the principle of Nuan Baobao's fever.

She remembered that when she was in chemistry class, the teacher talked about it.

Warm baby is a polymer synthesized by iron powder, activated carbon and inorganic salt. Its heat generation is an oxidative exothermic reaction.

Under the action of the catalyst, the high-purity iron powder undergoes an oxidation reaction with the oxygen in the air, thereby releasing heat.

Then use the non-woven fabric to control the amount of oxygen permeation, and the oxidation reaction speed can be controlled, thereby adjusting the heating temperature and time of the warm baby.

Therefore, the core material for making warm babies is iron powder. The finer the iron powder, the higher the quality, and the longer the heating time of warm babies.

However, in order to make a warm baby, in addition to needing a large amount of high-purity iron powder, it is also necessary to adjust the ratio of salt and charcoal in many ways. more difficult.

However, you can pay more attention, after all, the iron smelting technology in this era is already very developed.

Seeing that his daughter was in a daze again, Xu Jing squeezed her face: "Can you do it? Just like making the mask last time?"

Obscure Moon came back to her senses, pouted at Xu Jingyang: "No!"

"Can't? Can't what?"

Ge Jiamu didn't know when he suddenly appeared next to the carriage, followed by a few guards.

Seeing that it was Ge Jiamu, Ozuki's tone obviously eased a lot: "Oh, I'm discussing with Dad about Nuan Bao. Nuan Bao is a kind of cloth bag that can generate heat by itself."

"Self-heating cloth bag? Tell me in detail!" Ge Jiamu was very interested in Nuan Baobao.

So Ozuki recounted the heating principle of the warm baby, the materials needed and the difficulties in making it.

Listening to Ozuyue's narration, Ge Jiamu's eyes became brighter and brighter. If this warm baby can be made, there will never be soldiers and herdsmen frozen to death on the grassland.

The grasslands in winter are extremely cold, but the herdsmen are fine and can hide under the covers at night.

But every night in the royal court, patrolling soldiers were frozen to death.

Moreover, soldiers lurking in the snow and carrying out their missions would probably die quietly under the snow if they encountered a blizzard.

The grassland is sparsely populated, and soldiers who can fight are even more precious.

If this warm baby can be made, it will greatly improve the survivability and combat capability of soldiers.

After understanding the difficulty of making Nuan Baobao, Ge Jiamu patted Luyue on the shoulder: "Landuo! When you get to the royal court, I will take you to find the most powerful craftsman and blacksmith. This thing is worth a try!"
