Chapter 317 - 175: Bidding Farewell to the Old Year
Reed Moon hides the dragon, Waxing Moon celebrates the year.
November just passed, followed closely by the Waxing Moon.
In the season of icy cold, Boss Cheng of the Incense and Candle Shop across the street, wrapped in a thick cotton jacket with an outer robe, was curious when Xu Qing went to fetch incense candles:
"The weather is getting colder by the day, don’t you fear the chill wearing just that robe on your outings?"
"I’m young and full of energy, what fear of the cold! Besides, this robe I’m wearing is woven with cotton, thick enough already, unlike Boss Cheng, who has a delicate body and needs to wrap in bedding to go out."
Since the start of winter, Xu Qing has made a special effort to wear cotton robes, just to prevent others from noticing anything unusual.
In addition, he had the embroiderer weave a scarf, just enough to cover his mouth.
The reason for this was that zombies do not emit warmth from their bodies, so even in the coldest weather, they do not breathe out white steam when speaking.
Xu Qing has always paid attention to these details, but did not expect to meet someone like Cheng Caiyun, who was born to fear the cold.
If it weren’t for the frequent sight of people in cotton robes on the streets, he might have thought he had missed a detail, revealing a flaw!
"You better be careful, I heard that quite a few people froze to death this year..."
"I know about this," Xu Qing sighed, "I’ve handled quite a few of those frozen corpses lately, you can feel my hand, it’s still icy cold, maybe I’ve caught the chill too."
