Chapter 276: Good Guy!
I inexplicably felt a sense of reluctance to part.
Liao Jiu smiled and said, "On the way back, we won't be facing the wind, so it shouldn't be that cold, don't worry. Of course, if you give me an extra cotton-padded jacket, I can do that too."
Jiang Lianzhu cursed, "I lost all your things. Where can I find you a cotton-padded jacket? Forget it, forget it. I've just made it with new cotton this year. Here you go. Just don't come next time."
He took off his bluestone-colored cotton jacket and gave it to Liao Jiu.
Because it is made so loose, you need to wear multiple layers of clothes inside, so it can also be worn close to Liao Jiu's skin.
Jiang Lianzhu found a pair of rabbit fur gloves and a cotton scarf and put them on him.
Finally, Liao Jiu put on the cloak again.
He was almost fully armed, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
You can't see Liao Jiu's expression, but there is a smile in his eyes.
After going to the backyard, Chengfeng reluctantly wiped his head with Jifeng, carried Liao Jiu on his back again, and flew away.
The strong wind was reluctant to let it go, so it flew up into the sky with it and sent it away.
Jiang Lianzhu saw Liao Jiu on Chengfeng's back, waving at her.
She waved back.
Unfortunately, it can’t be seen from above.
She could see them because Chengfeng wore two bright night pearls around his neck, like a lighthouse in the darkness.
Going further and further away...
Going further and further away...
The sound of the golden eagle's long cry is particularly long and distant in the silent night sky.
Only when it was out of sight did Jiang Lianzhu sniff, look away, and lower her head.
He let out an inexplicable long sigh.
After a while, the wind came back.
"What are you chasing after... I told you to chase... but you can't catch up. We're not on the same path, so why bother chasing..."
It was not known whether these words were spoken to Ji Feng or to herself.
It was too cold outside, so she went back into the house to continue her New Year's Eve celebration.
The three snow wolves were still napping.
Jiang Lianzhu continued to roast her sweet potatoes and chestnuts for fun.
It was roasted and smelled delicious, but I had no appetite to eat it. I was thinking that this bastard Liao Jiu might have frozen to death and fallen off the golden eagle's back and died.
Or maybe the golden eagle only knew the way back to Shili Town and forgot the way to the capital, so it got lost and flew until tomorrow morning. After dawn, it found out that it had flown to the wrong place?
Or maybe Liao Jiu got too tired on her back, fell asleep, fell off, and died. She got her new cotton-padded jacket, new gloves, and new scarf for free...
…
Jiang Lianzhu didn't feel sleepy at all.
My heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
The charcoal fire was a little dry, so she picked up a pear and peeled it to eat.
I was thinking about something and was peeling a pear with my hand. I didn't pay attention and the knife cut a small cut on my finger.
Blood gushed out instantly. Seeing blood on New Year's Eve, I don't know whether it is a good sign or a bad sign.
Forget it, I won’t eat anymore, just wipe the blood.
She simply took out the Green Lotus Golden Warmer to study it. She didn't notice that the blood stains on her fingers seeped into the Green Lotus pattern on the hand warmer, and the Green Lotus pattern rippled like microwaves.
"It's really strange. It's obviously empty inside, but when I hold it in my hand, I feel a warmth. It seems much warmer than when I held it just now. It's probably around 45 degrees Celsius, right?" Jiang Lianzhu said to herself.
This temperature is just right for warming your hands.
She wanted to try it out and see if it would get hotter after adding charcoal.
So, she used tongs to pick up two pieces of charcoal and put them into the small stove...
The temperature hasn't changed, it's still constant?
This is a bit magical!
Was there not enough charcoal? The effect wasn't obvious. Because the hand warmer was too small and looked small, Jiang Lianzhu only took two small pieces.
She picked up two more small pieces and put them in.
Or is there no change in temperature?
What's going on?
Jiang Lianzhu expressed her dissatisfaction.
She continued to add more until the stove was full, but still, there was no change, and the temperature remained constant.
She continued to add...
etc! ! !
Her hand warmer is so small that it can be held in both hands. How is it possible that the fire is still not full even after adding charcoal so many times?
When Jiang Lianzhu realized this problem, her mind became completely clear.
Holy crap!!!
Did Liao Jiu send her a treasure? Was it the legendary Xumi space, or something else?
Lotus Lantern? ?
Jiang Lianzhu perked up. She continued to add charcoal while observing the changes in the hand warmer. She could still add more charcoal and it was not full. However, she noticed that the blue lotus pattern on the hand warmer was different. Her memory was quite good. The blue lotus pattern was in a bud state before, but now it was slightly blooming.
She tried adding charcoal twice more, and the blue lotus pattern opened a little bigger.
It's like there's something inside, so it's stretched open?
However, the temperature remained unchanged.
Constant state.
Jiang Lianzhu picked out the charcoal fire piece by piece, and sure enough, she saw that the green lotus on the stove began to slowly close again.
Awesome!!
She must have found a treasure.
Now it only has the function of a constant-temperature hand warmer. I wonder if new functions will be discovered in the future. It’s so awesome, it must be more than just a hand-warming function, right?
How about asking Liao Jiu next time you see him? What's going on?
She recalled carefully that when Liao Jiu gave it to her, he didn't say much, just said it was a gift from the palace. He had never used it, so he gave it to her. He certainly didn't know if it was a treasure, but she would not return it anyway.
I studied it inside and out for half the night, but apart from the fact that the blue lotus pattern inside could be used to store things and had changed, I haven't discovered what else it can be used for.
Also, whether it contains charcoal fire or ice and snow, the hand warmer maintains a constant temperature.
It's not affected at all by what's inside.
In this case, Jiang Lianzhu thought of a new use for it. She put roasted sweet potatoes and chestnuts in it to keep it warm.
Hey, here you have a convenient and quick thermos that will never get cold.
Sure, sure. Liao Jiu came over and gave her a thermos. She should thank him well next time.
***
Xiang Zuo and Xiang You waited for their master to go out for a ride, and they waited... for a whole night.
When I went out, I wore a night-shining pearl, so I guess I didn't bump into any mountain, right?
The two of them had already decided that if they didn't return by daybreak, they would set off and go directly to Shili Town, Shamen County.
Fortunately, at daybreak, they heard some movement and came out of the house. Looking up, they saw a bright light in the sky...
Thank God, a frozen man wrapped in ice so that only his eyes could be seen has finally returned.
As soon as the golden eagle landed, it lifted the frozen man into the yard and flew away again.
He also looked exhausted.
Xiang Zuo and Xiang You carried Liao Jiu into the house.
Good job!!
He exclaimed, "Good guy!"
