The ice and snow howled behind me, and the icy wind sliced ​​my back.

The woman ran forward desperately, hearing the sound of wind sounding like the roar of wild beasts, and her shouts being faintly drowned by the sound of wind.

She knew that it was Chris's desperate cry, but she didn't have the heart to listen carefully to what Chris was shouting.

Maybe it was just some curse words for her.

She looked back and saw that the dense ice and snow looked like a giant beast opened its mouth and swallowed Chris's body. She could only vaguely see Chris stretching out her hand towards her from the vast white field.

A figure that has become stiff in the ice and snow.

But in just a few seconds, the figure had completely disappeared into the ice and snow, and the cry was drowned by the howling of the cold wind.

Lin Dong chased behind him, like a white beast opening its mouth and showing its fangs!

She is racing against winter!

"run!"

"Run faster!"

The woman seemed to be unable to feel the fatigue and ran wildly holding on to her cold body.

The ground under her feet had begun to freeze, her eyebrows and hair were covered with white frost, and a fist-sized hailstone slammed into her shoulder!

This winter giant has caught up with her and seems ready to devour her fangs at any moment!

It’s still a hundred meters away from the settlement!

The woman's consciousness had begun to blur, and her body seemed to be frozen. As a cold wind blew by, her feet suddenly slipped!

"Snapped!"

The woman fell to the frozen ground. Her stiff body could no longer feel the pain, but she could not move. Chris used her last strength to turn her neck and look in the direction of her home.

Vision has begun to blur.

She is about to become part of the ice and snow.

but.

In the blurred vision, someone suddenly ran quickly into the cold winter, grabbed her with a pair of big hands, and dragged her into the house!

"boom!"

The wooden door was shut tightly, blocking out the cold winter outside.

The woman slowly opened her eyes and saw a familiar face appearing in front of her eyes. The originally unconscious woman suddenly woke up.

That's Chrissy's husband!

"Mom, Mom!" Some thin girls rushed forward, hugged the woman, and cried: "I thought I would never see you again..."

"No," the woman touched the girl's face complicatedly: "Mom, mom is a superman... Mom runs very fast... She can't catch up with me in winter."

The woman glanced at the room and saw that a fire had been lit in the dark little room, and the small flame was trying hard to release light and heat.

The cold wind howled outside the wooden door, pouring in through the cracks in the door. The small flames could not resist the cold wind. The temperature in the room was probably only below zero, but it would not freeze people into ice sculptures.

Hail as big as a fist hit the roof, causing the small house to shake violently. It was like a box bearing the ravages of a giant beast, as if it was about to collapse at any time.

But fortunately, the stone houses are still relatively strong. Thanks to Daxia's suggestion, most of the houses in Oufang adopt semi-underground construction structures, so they can still hold up.

"Did you save me?" The woman looked hard at the man.

The man squatted beside the fire with a pale face, shivering to keep warm. He looked at the woman and said in a complex voice: "What happened? Where is Chris? You are her best friend. She went out with you."

…”

"Chris..." The woman looked a little guilty, but she still shook her head and said, "She...she left a long time ago. I don't know where she is..."

The man is silent.

He sobbed silently, as if he already knew what happened to Chris. He lowered his head and said, "I asked her to stop chopping firewood and repair the house with me. She didn't listen. She insisted on going... I should stop her.

I should have stopped her..."

"Sorry." The woman turned away.

"You should rest first." The man rubbed his face and stood up slowly, "I have to go home."

The woman was stunned for a moment: "The ice and snow outside are so big... Why don't you wait?"

"No, my son, Blue, is at home by himself. He can't light a fire. The fire will be extinguished..." The man shook his head, with no sadness on his face: "I have to go back, it's only a few dozen meters away...

…I shouldn’t be able to freeze to death…”

He seems to be a walking dead.

>He pushed open the door with all his strength, walked into the roaring wind, and walked into the bone-crushing ice and snow.

"Clang!"

The cold wind blew in and the door slammed shut.

There was a brief silence in the room.

next moment.

"Daughter..." The woman hugged the thin girl and sobbed in the dark and narrow house supported by a small fire in the ice and snow.

At this moment, the entire Europe was covered in ice and snow!

Under this winter storm that swept the world, countless European people were hiding in cold little houses, guarding small fires, listening to the howling of the cold wind and the sound of falling hail in fear.

meaning.

Countless animals and citizens outside were directly swallowed by the ice and snow and became part of the cold winter.

Winter has officially arrived!

Unlike the citizens of Daxia, the people of Europe instantly experienced the horror of winter!

the other side.

On the steaming Great Wall of the North, Lin Fan, Jin Lao, Shang Weitian and Chen Lao, the four Vajras responsible for different aspects, sat around a hot pot.

The red oil bubbles gurglingly, the fragrance overflows as the base material surges, and the rushing heat makes snowflakes melt in the air.

"Crash!"

Jin Lao picked up half a plate of fat and lean ice-field beef with chopsticks. It was steaming hot and covered with dipping sauce, and then he put the tender and juicy beef slices into his mouth.

"Hoo ho ho," Mr. Jin took a few breaths because he was burned, then took a sip of white wine and said with emotion: "This is how we should spend our winter."

"Damn it, I think back then, when I followed the old regiment leader here, it was a land of ice and snow. The soldiers were eating fried noodles and nesting in snow nests..."

"At that time, I dreamed of eating hot pot. The spicier the better. If it could be paired with white wine, it would be like a magical life."

Mr. Jin glanced at the hot pot in front of him with emotion, and then looked at the ice and snow outside. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion and said with a smile: "Haha, I didn't expect that in just a few decades, this magical life has really come to pass, and such a building has been built.

The big Great Wall..."

He glanced at the tourists who were still cheering for skiing, eating hot pot, or laughing and taking pictures, and said with a smile: "Brothers, old leader, have you seen it? Daxia, as we wish!"

Lin Fan was thoughtful: "By the way, the old regiment leader and many ancestors are sleeping in this ice and snow... We are drinking and skiing here, doesn't it feel like a graveyard dance? Isn't this wrong?

Too good?"

"That's not a good thing!" Mr. Jin snorted coldly: "Isn't it just for this scene that the old captain and the brothers worked hard back then?"

“We’re drinking and skiing here, and they’ll be so happy when they see us!”

"Maybe a little doll will slide across it, and the brothers will have to tell the doll to slide slowly and don't fall!"

Lin Fan nodded.

Shang Weitian looked at the cheering crowd on the city wall and frowned: "Now all over the country are very happy because of the arrival of winter. Businessmen have opened clothing stores, hot pot restaurants, barbecue restaurants, ski resorts, and outdoor supplies stores to make money.

Get a lot of money.”

"The people have directly saved electricity bills and can play in the snow everywhere... Now 'praising the winter' has almost become a mantra, and even I say it from time to time."

"I suspect that the Winter Temple uses this method to make us feel happy and build faith in happiness!"

Lin Fan: "..."

Are you sure they want us to be happy?

"You may be overthinking." Lin Fan shook his head: "This kind of faith is not the faith that gods need."

"Our 'Praise to Winter' is just pure gratitude. No one will obey Winter wholeheartedly just because they have fun playing in the snow. Have you ever seen anyone kneel down to Snowball during a snowball fight?"

"What they want is obedience, surrender, wholehearted submission...that must be established from fear."

Shang Weitian breathed a sigh of relief.

"But we still have things to do next, and we will have to trouble Mr. Jin then." Lin Fan said, taking out a snowflake.

"This is?

"Lao Jin was stunned.

"The Winter Treasure House can be opened by turning it in the snow." Lin Fan explained: "Same as the Ocean Treasure House, it stores the most important resource of the Winter Temple - the conquered planes."
