Spring comes to the desperate place

Chapter 478: Sleeping in the open air

After the three of them reached a less populated area, Song Chunlin stopped. General Lin didn't understand why, but when Gu Fengyue asked him to dismount, he did so obediently. He thought the other party had prepared a carriage or food or something, so he was still looking around and waiting. However, the first thing he saw was a piece of green vine.

"What is this thing? I've never seen it before..." General Lin's voice changed, which shows how frightening the moving vines are.

Song Chunlin commanded the vines to wrap around General Lin, waved goodbye to Gu Fengyue, and then the vines shot up into the sky, growing and jumping rapidly towards the capital, just like riding a roller coaster, which was very exciting.

Perhaps it was too stimulating. When General Lin took to the air again, he finally couldn't bear the churning in his stomach and vomited.

Song Chunlin disgustedly let the mutant vines hang General Lin up, away from him, and vomit as much as he wanted.

After a long while, General Lin was brought back by the vines like a dead dog. Song Chunlin poked him and confirmed that he was still alive. In order to prevent him from dying halfway, the two had to stop and replenish General Lin with some spiritual spring water. Soon he finally recovered.

General Lin had just vomited bile, and his stomach was now empty and uncomfortable. Song Chunlin took out a steamed bun and handed it to him without saying a word.

"Eat something."

"Thank you very much." General Lin took the steamed bun with trembling hands, not daring to ask where the other party got it from.

The steamed buns were not made of pure flour, but were mixed with some pumpkin. They were pumpkin steamed buns specially made by Song Qinshi. Song Chunlin loved them very much, so he asked Song Qinshi to make a mountain of pumpkin steamed buns for him to eat slowly.

As soon as the steamed buns came out of the pot, they were transferred to the space. They were still hot at this moment. General Lin ate a big steamed bun with the water bag and felt that his stomach was not so uncomfortable anymore.

Glancing around, General Lin was surprised to find that this stretch of Gobi seemed to be quite close to the nearest town. However, wouldn't it take a day and a night to get to that town? They had only been out for a short time.

General Lin looked up at the sky in disbelief and found that the sun had not yet set. They had just left the city gate not long after noon, and now it looked like only an hour had passed, but they had already arrived near the town. What an incredible speed.

Seeing that General Lin was still in a daze, Song Chunlin walked over and poked him on the back, reminding him that it was time to set off.

After drinking the spiritual spring water, General Lin finally had enough energy to observe his surroundings. However, the vines were moving too fast. The scenery rushed past their feet and flew past before they could see it clearly.

Yes, it flew over.

General Lin never thought in his life that he would have the opportunity to fly to the sky again, but now he has experienced it.

Because they were in a hurry, Song Chunlin and General Lin almost did not sleep. They tried to walk through places with fewer people during the day, and took shortcuts at night without any scruples. The closer they were to the capital, the denser the surrounding vegetation became, which made it more convenient for the two to move around. This time, Song Chunlin also led his men to use mutant plants to travel the entire way. When they arrived outside Changping Town, Song Chunlin was already exhausted.

General Lin was not in a much better situation. Although he did not have to travel in person and could occasionally take a nap by hanging on the vines, he was preoccupied with things and did not sleep well along the way. He ate voraciously, just enough to fill his stomach. As for where the food came from, General Lin did not want to ask, nor did he dare to ask. He was afraid that if he knew too much, Song Chunlin would control the vines to wrap him up and kill him.

When they arrived at Changping, Song Chunlin dropped General Lin off not far from the Song family. It was already the morning of the fourth day, and General Lin had arrived ten days earlier than expected. When he arrived at the Song family, he explained the reason to Song Dazhuang, borrowed a horse from the Song family, and without even having time to eat, he rode his horse in a hurry to the capital.

Song Chunlin didn't expect that he would be back after only two months away. The Song family members were also surprised. When they heard that something had happened to the ancestor of the Lin family, Grandpa Song and Grandma Song's faces darkened.

"Alas, birth, aging, sickness and death are part of human nature. The Lin family member is already over ninety years old this year. He was able to see his children and grandchildren before he passed away. This life is worth it."

Song Dazhuang comforted the two old men: "Don't worry, with Chunlin here, you two will definitely live to be a hundred years old."

Grandpa Song glared at his eldest son and said, "Get out of the way! You're a grandfather, but you still can't control your mouth. You're a hundred years old, and you're not afraid of getting your tongue blown off by the wind."

Song Dazhuang didn't know why his father scolded him, but he still went to the fields dejectedly. The rice was to be harvested in June, and there was a lot of work to do in the fields, so he had to keep an eye on it.

As soon as Song Dazhuang left, Song Qin also went into the kitchen. When Song Chunlin came out of the shower, Song Qin brought in a bowl of egg noodles.

"Come, eat something first. You must be exhausted after traveling for a few days. Go and have a rest after you finish eating. I will make you whatever you want to eat in the evening."

Song Chunlin looked at Song Qinshi with a smile: "Mom, I want to eat fish, braised fish, and fried shark fin."

Song Qin tapped her son's forehead and said, "You're the only greedy little cat who knows how to eat. Okay, I'll go buy five fish later so you can eat as much as you want."

Song Qinshi did what she said and really bought five big grass carps. She chopped the fish heads and stewed them with tofu, coated the shark fins and tails with batter and fried them until crispy, sliced ​​the fish meat and cooked it with sauerkraut, and did not waste the fish bones. She marinated them and made pepper and salt flavored dishes. The table was full of fish and chicken. The big fat chickens she raised at home made a golden and shiny chicken soup from them, and the aroma was irresistible.

Song Chunlin had a big appetite and ate until his belly was full. Grandpa Song asked him how many days he would stay this time, and Song Chunlin just said that it depended on the Lin family.

"The Lin family's ancestor brought the entire clan to support us in establishing Dajing College. We must never forget this kindness. If the old man really passes away, we must go to pay our respects together. Gu Fengyue is not in the capital, so I have to take his place. As for our family, let Dad and Second Uncle take the men in the family to go together."

Grandpa Song had no objection to Song Chunlin's arrangement, and the rest of the Song family also thought it should be so. Song Chunlin did not tell the Marquis' Mansion about his return this time, so he would have to go to Beijing again later to inform Gu Fengyun.
