Vol 3 Chapter 130: Hot spring

"Mr. Xu, can you see the river in front? That is the largest river in our northeastern province, the Barna River. After flowing through the entire northeastern province, it will continue all the way to the east, passing the Dracing Principality and the Kingdom of Fino. Finally, it merged into the Skain River.
Earl of Longley enthusiastically pointed to a silver water belt in front of him and introduced it to Xu.
Xu also looked up and looked at the sparkling front, reflecting the numerous rivers of shattered sunlight, some strange.

Isn't the winter in the north not very cold? Why is this river not frozen?

Earl of Longley laughed: "This is the biggest feature of the Barna River. Although it is located in the north of the kingdom, it never freezes in winter."
"What is the reason?" Xu is also curious.
Although the northern part of the Kingdom of Lampari is not the northernmost part of the whole continent, the temperature in winter has already reached minus ten to twenty degrees. It is said that this Barna River is not particularly wide, and it should be frozen on ice. .
Earl of Longley smiled and said: "You will understand the reason later."
Xu couldn't help but turn his eyes. I didn't expect this Earl of Longley to have a bad habit of selling off.
The horse carried the two men on the bumpy rural dirt road and finally stopped in a small ordinary village.
Earl of Longley just got on the carriage, and a group of people gathered around.
"The Lord of the City, you are coming again."
"Master of the city, come to take a bath again?"
"The urban master, today is a good weather, it is suitable for more bubbles."
"Yeah, the city owner, you can't come for a few days. Walk around. Go to our house to eat first. I only ran a mountain horn deer yesterday. The legs are still there, you are here."
"Master of the city, I want to eat sugar..."
......
Looking at a group of ordinary villagers enthusiastically surrounded the Earl of Longli, Xu was somewhat surprised.
When I was in Bangta City, the Count of Satsuma was also known as a close relative, but it was never like the Earl of Longli. It allowed ordinary civilians to engage in dialogue with him so pressurelessly, just like an old friend. .
Earl of Longley is also full of smiles. He was very familiar with the people and said hello. He also reached out and asked him to pick up the child he was going to eat. He greeted Xu Yi and went to the old peasant’s house who had just invited him to eat at his home.
Xu also walked behind the village, and every time he passed a house, someone would say hello to the Earl of Longli.
It was not until the old peasant's home that the Earl of Longley put down the child, gave him a candy, and then patted his and rushed the child back to his home. This is like the owner who invited Xu to enter the door.
As soon as he entered the door, Xu immediately felt a suffocating heat of all sorts of strange smells. Can not help but frown slightly.
The old peasant who walked in front seemed to have long guessed that Xu would also react to this smell. He turned back and sighed and smiled embarrassedly: "This guest may not be able to stand the taste of the house, but there is no way, the country is Only then, please bear with me."
The Earl of Longli also explained: "The winter is too cold. This is a necessary means to warm the house."
Xu also fixed his eyes and looked inside the house. He found that there was only a stove in the middle of the house of less than 20 square meters. At this time, several pieces of wood fire were on the stove, and the smoke was also brought out. It makes the whole house look a little smoky.
It’s strange to be confused with the smell of something brewed in the iron pan on the stove.
In the corner of the house is a dilapidated bed with black lacquer and no visible quilt.
Two children wrapped in bedding, no more than ten years old, waited for the round eyes to look at the two guests who suddenly entered the room. After a while, the two children rushed down from the bed together and flew directly to Longli. In the count of the count, he cried cheerfully.
Seeing this situation, Xu also smiled at the old farmer who still apologized to the side: "Do not worry, the city owner can bear it, I certainly have no problem."
The old farmer smiled thickly and walked out from the back door of the house. It seemed that he yelled.
In a short while, the old farmer and a peasant woman re-entered the house and began to get busy around the stove.
At this time, Count Lonley had already scored with two children, laughing and sitting next to the fire, and then greeted Xu Yi.
"Come, Xu Huichang, sit down. Old Hal's stewed deer legs are rare and delicious, and I don't eat much. You are lucky, you can eat it today."
Upon hearing the praise of Count Lonley, the old farmer, known as Old Harr, smiled and smiled, and kept hands and feet in the pot with various materials that Xu could not recognize.
Until the old Hal finally stewed the horns deer legs, and a bowl of soup hands to Xu also in front of him, Xu also still feels that today's experience is somewhat strange.
Originally, he thought that Count Lonley had deliberately left himself to stay for one day. He would have something special to discuss with himself, but he did not expect that he just wandered around in the city of Batru yesterday, but said nothing.
Early this morning, he even unexpectedly took him to the ordinary village outside the city. Now he is led into the home of this ordinary poor peasant, and taste the old peasant himself to hunt and catch Come to the horn deer.
"This count of Longli, is it determined, or is he still hesitating?" Xu also doubted in the heart, but on the surface, he did not move, thanked Lao Ha, took the soup bowl, and took a breath. Gently sip.
A fragrant incense burst in the mouth, so Xu also involuntarily rushed to the old Halby gave a thumb.
"It's so good! It's no wonder that the Lord of the City will bring me here especially. It turned out to be a slap!"
I was praised by Xu, and the old haar smiled into two seams. I turned around and didn’t know where I was. I took out a bag that seemed to be made of sheepskin. I took another bowl and opened the sheepskin bag. The stopper on the top fell, and suddenly a scent of wine was filled with wine.
"Come, eat a venison. Drink a bite. That is the best enjoyment." Earl of Longley arrived here. It seems that I changed my personal style. I couldn’t see any noble style. I took the wine bowl from Lao Ha’s hand and gave it to Xu Yi.
Xu also touched the bowl with him and poured it down. He found that the taste of the wine was not as good as that of the Saatchi Manor, and it was not as good as the wine produced by the Dwarf Brewery, but it was quite good.
Then four adults and two children surrounded the stove. Even the little children were sipping wine, and they ate the venison deer soup. In a short while, they ate a large pot of venison, and even the soup at the bottom of the pot was not let go.
After the satiated meal, the Earl of Longley took a break for a while and greeted Xu again.
"Let's go, Xu will be long. In this weather, after eating, you should go to the top of the bubble. It is definitely a good enjoyment."
Xu Yi still wonders, but he does not intend to ask.
Today, Earl of Longley is not going to be ready to say anything at the last minute. Of course, he also waited patiently and would not urge him.
If Count Lonley’s mind is the same as he guessed, then this is indeed a very difficult decision for Earl of Longley, and he will be hesitant and normal.
After leaving the old Hal family, the Earl of Longli did not immediately go to the mountain, but returned to the carriage to take out two parcels and threw them to Xu Yi, carrying one another, leading the road in front, to a hill outside the village. Go.
It’s good to take a few steps after a meal, but it’s a bit hard to run straight to climb the mountain.
Xu Yi’s physical strength has never been good. Under such conditions, after climbing a mountain road, he was even more panting, causing the Earl of Longley to laugh.
"Mr. Xu, I heard that you are a magician. Are all the magicians physically so bad as you are?"
Xu also turned a blind eye, but could not refute.
At the very least, he currently knows a lot of magicians, and he has never seen a magician whose physical strength is particularly good.
Fortunately, the mountain is not high, and did not climb to the top of the hill, the Earl of Longli stopped, with Xu also folded from a small road on the mountainside.
After walking for a while, there was a burst of water in the front, and a thick mist of water vaporized from the front.
Seeing this situation in front of him, Xu also was amazed.
How does this look like the one that he occasionally experiences when he is on Earth?
After moving a little further, the water vapor was more intense, but it was still clear that there was a pool of hundreds of square meters on the mountainside.
The water in the pool obviously has a considerable temperature, and in this cold weather, it emits a lot of hot air, so that the entire pool is soaked in a fairyland.
That's right, it's actually a hot spring!
Looking at some of the hairy Xu Yi, Earl Longli laughed and said to Xu Yi: "Mr. Xu, you are a southerner, should you see our specialty hot springs for the first time?"
Xu also wants to say that this thing I have experienced on the earth many times before, but still nodded and admitted.
"Since it is the first time, you have to experience it. Tell you that in this weather, a hot spring is the greatest enjoyment."
After leaving this sentence, Earl of Longli was indifferent, and did not seem to have any jealousy at all. Skilledly took off his body clothes and went straight into the hot spring pool.
Seeing that Count Lonley was still beckoning himself in the hot springs, Xu shook his head helplessly, and undressed his clothes and drilled in.
I have to say that in this cold weather, it is a very good enjoyment to soak up this natural hot spring and enjoy the scenery in the distance.
However, because Earl of Longley brought his own intentions to come here, Xu did not have the opportunity to enjoy it easily.
The two chatted for a while while soaking in the hot springs.
After a while, Count Longli suddenly sighed: "Old Hal, although they are next to this natural enjoyment, but every day they have to worry about how to eat and eat, it is really not people to consider this kind of enjoyment, it is really people Compassion. Xu Huichang, what do you think?"
Xu also took back the look of the village at the foot of the mountain and turned to look at the Count of Longli.
This guy sold for a day, finally have to say the topic? (To be continued...)
