When the ice cream appeared in front of the people of Powell, Xia Zoe, His Majesty the Pope, Gena and others stayed in the castle and did not go out.
And in just a short while, the avalanche happened.
Even if the danger didn't happen near the castle.
It's not far away, and it can't be affected here, but it still makes Gena unable to help change his face.
After all, in the face of natural disasters, everyone is an extremely insignificant existence.
What's more, Gena can also think of - if he hadn't moved the festival of the blessing ceremony earlier and changed it to today.
If he hadn't ordered all the people of Powell to come here for the blessing festival, then...
Thinking of this, Gena couldn't help but glance at Desinia.
Both of these requests were made by him...
Xia Zuoyi noticed a gaze staring at him, turned his head, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Garner: "No, nothing."
"Oh."
Xia Zoey responded and turned her head back again.
He sighed: "The avalanche is too scary. Fortunately, the blessing ceremony was held today. Everyone is fine. It's good."
"Your Majesty, do you think so?"
Segalot: "Indeed."
Xia Zuoyi sighed and said a few words with joy.
Gena thought, how can people predict natural disasters, it seems that everything is a coincidence.
The avalanche lasted for a while before it stopped.
From the disintegrating snowflakes in the sky, I couldn't see anything clearly, as if the whole world was covered by a vast expanse of white for a while.
After everything around them calmed down, and then looked closely, many people took a deep breath.
—Looking from the long slope, the mountain where the avalanche occurred in the distance seems to have been split in half by someone out of thin air, and the smaller half of the mountain wall is gone.
But in fact, this is just the snow that has slipped down over the years.
If they hadn't come to participate in this early blessing ceremony, I'm afraid they would have been buried by the snow... If they didn't even have time to escape, they would have suffocated to death under the extreme cold...
"Huh—it's terrifying, fortunately... Fortunately, the festival of the blessing ceremony was earlier, otherwise..." Someone couldn't help but say.
Then he happily hugged his wife and children around him tightly.
"Fortunately, our whole family came. Our family lives at the foot of that mountain..."
"My children and relatives all came here to hold the festival..."
"Blessed by the God of Creation, this festival is ahead of schedule and it is too timely! Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you Lord!"
"It must be the blessing of the white wolf, it is the white wolf who brought us luck!" someone shouted suddenly.
"That's right, it's the white wolf, it's the white wolf that brings us luck, and the white wolf protects us!"
There were shouts from the crowd, and then they grew louder and louder.
In the end, everyone raised their hands in the direction of the white wolf and cheered, celebrating this lucky festival.
Ice Cream's ears moved, and after hearing the shout, he turned around from the long slope where he watched the avalanche, his ice blue eyes flashed suspiciously, and tilted his head at the crowd.
The voices from the crowd grew louder.
Xia Zuoyi smiled and said to Gena, "Your Majesty, we should go out too."
Gener couldn't help sighing: "The white wolf has a very different meaning to Powell and the people..."
"Lord Desinia, you really don't think about letting the white wolf stay in Powell for a while... Maybe there will be little wolf cubs..."
Xia Zuoyi: "I don't want the ice cream to stay, and I have no choice. I won't force the ice cream..."
"But Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it. Even if there are no white wolves in Powell, you can have other things."
"What?" Garner questioned.
Xia Zuoyi smiled and didn't answer for the time being.
Shouldn't it be said that the people of Powell are big-hearted.
-Although the avalanche did not cause any casualties, it actually destroyed some people's houses and property.
Xia Zoe thought that Gena would order the blessing ceremony to be temporarily cancelled, and then send someone to the location of the avalanche to deal with the follow-up situation as soon as possible.
But I didn't expect that this blessing ceremony would be held as usual.
And those people whose houses might be destroyed by the avalanche didn't feel the slightest bit of concern, and they waited enthusiastically for the blessing of the white wolf as usual.
Segalot whispered to Xia Zoe: "This is probably the biggest difference between Powell and other countries."
Differences in ideas due to historical and cultural differences.
The people of Powell have faith in the white wolf above all else.
Xia Zoe nodded when she heard the words.
In the end, this advance blessing ceremony went on smoothly.
After it was over, Gena Cosmo told Clifford to send people to settle the homeless people for the time being, and then count the damage caused by the avalanche.
For the people of Powell who were very lucky to escape the avalanche, and there was no casualty, Gena thanked Xia Zoe for this.
—Thanks to his two proposals at the time.
Xia Zuoyi said that it was all a coincidence, no thanks.
They have been in Powell for many days, and it is time to leave and return to the Territory of Desinia.
Gena said: "Anyway, I still have to thank the lord. If you need help with anything in the future, you can mention it..."
After the conversation between the two ended, Xia Zuoyi and His Majesty the Pope and others returned to the territory.
…
The Territory of Desinia is a long way from Powell.
In addition, he lived in Gnar's ice and snow castle for a few days, coming and going, almost two months have passed.
When Xia Zoe returned to the territory, the harvest period of sweet potatoes and corn also happened to start.
- The yields of these two new crops are no less than that of potatoes.
Especially during the harvesting period of sweet potatoes and corn, the Thorns Chamber of Commerce also launched new sales in time about the eating methods and practices of the two new crops.
The simplest and most authentic way to cook corn is to boil it with water. It tastes sweet and delicious, and has a unique taste.
And it can also be roasted with fire, or boiled corn soup, stir fried corn kernels, etc.
The way to eat sweet potatoes is also very direct, and fire roasting is the sweetest one.
Every household has a fireplace, or firewood is lit at night. When the fire is extinguished, the sweet potatoes can be buried in the ashes that still have temperature.
After a while, you can turn the sweet potatoes out when the temperature drops.
This is the time when it is most delicious.
Sweet potatoes can also be steamed, boiled porridge, made sweet potato cakes, fried sweet potato balls, etc.
Xia Zuoyi had already ordered people to study various ways to eat them—be sure to dig out all the relevant recipes for the three crops of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.
Although it can't be perfect, it should be as rich as possible, and then people in the territory can slowly explore and study.
…
Cotton is a plant that only matures once a year, has high requirements for soil and water, and has a long growth cycle, ranging from seventy-five to one hundred days.
The picking season is more busy.
Xia Zuoyi has ordered people to harvest the cotton seeds, which can be planted immediately after the spring of the next year.
At present, the crops that have been successfully planted on a large scale are temporarily only potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes.
Tomatoes, peppers, cotton, and cocoa, which are also crops brought back by Samuel from the New World, need to wait a little longer before they can be popularized in the whole territory.
Xia Zoe is not in a hurry.
After all, these three high-yield new crops have already excited and excited the people in the territory.
The next thing to do is to promote and publicize the three crops again.
Inside the school in Fort Comoy.
Jack resolutely came to live in the Desinia territory from the Saint Air Empire. After a few months, he and his two younger brothers have completely adapted to the life here.
Moreover, Jack met a lot of new friends at school.
On this day, the school cafeteria will distribute sweet potatoes for free at the gate.
One person can receive a baked sweet potato.
But Jack and his friends don't have sweet potatoes to bake.
Instead, one person picked a raw sweet potato with dirt hanging from the box next to it with sweet potatoes.
"Why, do you want to cook the sweet potatoes yourself?" the person who distributed the roasted sweet potatoes said with a smile.
Jack nodded, picked it up, and ran off with a few friends.
They came to a grove behind the school building, and they skillfully picked up dry wood together, and then put dry branches and dead leaves together and lit it together.
A warm orange-red fire gradually rose.
In such cold weather, it is a joy and enjoyment for them to chat, laugh and play with each other by the fire.
When the fire gradually went out, and only the charcoal and ashes were left in place, the friend hurriedly called Jack and the others over.
They would simmer the sweet potatoes under the hot ashes, and then find a stone and sit in a circle.
Someone exclaimed: "It's so good, I never dared to think about a life like this before..."
He used to be a child in the ghetto of the San Airo Empire, growing up without parents and family.
The other children couldn't help but hold their faces and recall the past.
They are all the same.
Regardless of whether he had parents or family members before, he has become an orphan now. Maybe Jack's situation is better.
After all, he has two younger brothers.
"But we have a home now, the school is our home, and you are my family..." a shy child whispered.
Hearing the words, the others raised their heads, looked at each other, and all laughed.
"Yes, we are family."
Jack said: "We have warm accommodation and food to fill our stomachs. In school, we can learn all kinds of knowledge..."
"And these, even in the past, were not easy to get."
"We are able to have these, all thanks to the lord!"
"That's right, it was the Lord Lord who gave us an Enron life!"
"The lord also brought us sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes..."
"I heard from the teacher that these three crops will be planted in large quantities in the future, and no one will be hungry in the territory again."
Jack and the other children sat in a circle and praised Xia Zoey.
When the time was almost up, they peeled off the ashes and found the sweet potatoes that had been cooked.
"It smells so good!"
"Jack, save two to bring back to your brother. I want to eat the smaller sweet potato. I was too full for lunch just now."
"Wow, it's so hot, wait a minute and eat it."
At this time, a cold wind blew, the weather gradually darkened, and the temperature dropped a lot from noon.
Jack looked up at the sky and said, "It seems to be getting colder and colder recently."
"I think the wind will blow in a while, why don't you take the sweet potatoes back to the dormitory to eat... Let's go."
The other kids nodded, and that was fine.
The author has something to say: Xia Xia: You don't have to sleep in the same bed with the Pope when you come back...
Pope: This ellipsis is very spiritual, so
