On the night of the twenty-fifth day of the third month of winter, Hu Biao quietly left, closing his eyes forever in his sleep, and the sound of crying came from Hu Biao's mansion.

The descendants of Hu Biao who still live in Zhongjing City have all come over, and the Hu clan people living in Zhongjing City have also gathered over, and the officials of the military department, field/war army and soldiers of the city defense army have gathered over, and there are people inside and outside the Hu Biao Mansion.

Su Yan, Tiger Witch, Snake Wisdom, Lu Yuan and others accompanied Hu Biao, their eyes were red and moist, and their old friends were gone, and their hearts ached.

sent away the former snake witch, the former tiger witch, and now sent away the tiger biao, I don't know who the next one will be.

However, the old people, like Hu Biao, are not afraid of death, if there is no dragon tribe, the possibility of everyone living past the age of thirty is very small, and now they can live to be over fifty years old, and it is enough to see the development and growth of the Xia Kingdom, and to see the number of future generations continue to increase.

Because of the weather, Hu Biao's funeral did not last long, and the body was hastily activated and the urn was buried in the cemetery.

Back in the palace, Su Yan, Meihua, Eyue, and Xiangxiang sat on the kang, their bodies close together, unwilling to separate, and the death of Hu Biao made the four of them feel the power of time and the ruthlessness of the years.

Su Yan is about to enter the thirty-seventh year of her life, Meihua is one year older than Su Yan, Eyue is one year younger than Su Yan, and Xiangxiang is about twelve years younger than Su Yan.

In the Xia Kingdom, being able to live past the age of fifty is considered a long life, and Su Yan is only thirteen years away from being fifty years old, thirteen years, how short.

Su Yan, Meihua, and Eyue have all practiced martial arts since childhood, and there is no shortage of high-grade medicinal materials, martial arts enter the territory quickly, and Xiangxiang learns martial arts later, but Xiangxiang is born with divine power, and his martial arts talent is very high, and martial arts enter the realm faster.

The power of the years weakened in Su Yan, Meihua, Eyue, and Xiangxiang, Su Yan, Meihua, and Eyue looked like they were only young people in their twenties, while Xiangxiang looked like they were only about twenty years old.

Not only is the body aging slow, the lifespan of the four is longer than that of ordinary people, Su Yan feels that he has no problem living to be a hundred years old, and his three wives are probably the same, and being able to accompany each other in the journey of life is nothing more than happiness.

Witnessing the death of Hu Biao, thinking of his future, and finally thinking of Snake Ci, Snake Ci is also old, only a few years younger than Hu Biao and Snake Wise, Su Yan doesn't know how old Snake Ci can live, while Snake Ci is still alive, let Snake Ci enjoy the warmth of home a lot, Su Yan doesn't want to leave any regrets.

Winter has entered the final period, this is also the coldest time in this winter, the cold wind is howling, most of the people in the summer country are lying on the hot kang, and then cover the body with a thick quilt.

When it comes time to go out, they also have to wrap themselves in animal skin coats, and almost no one dares to walk alone in the outside world, for fear of accidentally falling outside and never coming back.

The people of Xia Country have to be careful to deal with this extremely cold winter, and the same is true for other tribes, but the conditions of other tribes are much worse than those of Xia Kingdom, maybe when they wake up that day, they will find that the people around them have no breath and have become a cold corpse.

The various tribes tried their best to resist the cold breath of all kinds of houses, used all kinds of things to strengthen and thicken the houses to block all the gaps, risked the risk of the house catching fire in the house to make a fire in the house to keep warm, everyone tried their bodies close together to warm each other, all the methods that could be used were used, and there were still tribesmen who were frozen to death, this winter was terrible.

What's more terrible is that some tribes are about to run out of food, too much rain in summer, so that most of the tribes' crops are reduced, and more tribes' crops are not harvested, fortunately, everyone lives near the river, and can also rely on fishing to get food, before the river freezes, each tribe tries to fish from the river to store, and the lower temperature can make the fish store longer, not to mention the situation after the water freezes.

However, when a thick layer of ice formed on the river, the tribes could not fish, and the food stored in the tribes was not enough to eat for the whole winter, even if the rations of the tribes were restricted, the food could not last for the whole winter.

What can be done is to organize hunting teams to go out hunting, and these tribes do not yet know how to break the ice on the river to catch fish.

Fishing is even more dangerous during this cold winter, many wild beasts are frozen to death, other hungry wild beasts are even targeted by humans, hunting parties come to hunt in the jungle, and many are either hunted by wild beasts or frozen to death.

I don't know how many tribes will die out after this winter, and there will also be tribes that Xia Guo has come into contact with.

Su Yan will not have any mercy for the demise of these tribes, the Xia Kingdom has already given these tribes a chance, and also told the news that the duration of the winter has increased and become colder, and those tribes think that they can hold on with the strength of their tribes.

The high-level leaders of the Xia Kingdom all knew that after this cold winter, many tribes would join the Xia Kingdom, without exception, their tribes could not withstand the cold winter, and they had to choose to join the Xia Kingdom when so many clansmen were frozen to death.

On the one hand, Su Yan was reluctant to tell the nomadic tribe about the changes in winter, worried that the nomadic tribe would not trade with the Xia Kingdom, and on the other hand, Su Yan did not want to see the nomadic tribes die out in this cold winter, so that the Xia Kingdom would have no source of cattle and horses, and it would be difficult to quickly expand the population of cattle and horses domesticated only by virtue of the Xia Kingdom's goals.

Perhaps because of the history in the memory of the previous life, Su Yan has always been prejudiced against the nomadic tribe and is wary of the nomadic tribe.

Finally, the coldest part of winter has passed, and the weather is getting warmer until the day the ice melts, and winter is finally over.

"King, the melting of the ice has been delayed by three days again, and the duration of the winter that has just passed has reached one hundred and thirteen days."

Su Yan still remembered that when the water froze in the past winter, the deer witch happily reported to him that the time of the water freezing was only one day earlier, and now the deer witch's face became sad again.

It is sad that the duration has increased by four days compared to the previous winter, and that after several winters in a row, the duration has increased by twenty-three days compared to a normal winter.

Fortunately, the population of Xia is less than 100,000, and it can rely on fishing to obtain a lot of food, if it is an agricultural country with a population of millions or even tens of millions, if it encounters such extreme climate change, I am afraid that the country will fall into civil strife or even extinction due to lack of food.
