The Russian Far East has a harsh natural environment and difficult conditions, not only because of the terrain of the mountainous plateau, but also because of the high latitudes close to the Arctic Circle, which leads to low temperatures all year round.

As a result, land transport is not well developed, and even in the 21st century, it is not difficult to see from the maps of Russian railways, navigation lines and navigable rivers that a large part of the Far East is not even accessible by rail.

People here rely on air and water transportation for a large part of their transportation.

Although there is very little precipitation throughout the year, the water network in the territory is dense, which provides convenience for water transportation. It's just that the temperature is too cold throughout the year, and in winter, the mountains, forests and lakes are covered with snow, and the big rivers and rivers also condense thick ice.

Cheng Fan once spent some time in a city in the north of the empire, and every year when the winter was cold, the lakes and rivers froze, and even a certain area of the sea was also frozen.

The north of the empire is not yet the northernmost part, and the cold of winter is already like this, and the Far East region that Cheng Fan is now setting foot in is in winter, and the cold ice and snow are needless to say.

The harsh natural conditions make these areas vast and sparsely populated, and although the cities and villages where humans gather are not scattered, most of the people in the agglomeration areas are sparsely populated, and even if they are a city, there is not much population.

Vast tracts of land are untouched forests and wilderness, and there is no thriving network of railways and roads, and after so many days of travel, Cheng Fan has seen almost no people, except for the occasional small village on the plain on the other side of the mountain.

Cheng Fan's first arrival in the Far East was probably at the turn of July and August, and now there are dozens of days and nights, and this land in the cold season is much larger than the warm season, and will once again welcome the ice and snow back to the earth, so that thousands of forests will be dyed.

The sky was a little darker, not the same as the sunrise and sunset, but the further north it went, the extent of the polar night in the Arctic Circle expanded, causing the sky to look like a faint black veil of smoke.

The sun hides behind the black veil, does not come out, and with the cold wind roaring around, in a trance, it seems that people have arrived in the ghost realm where ghosts are rampant in the world, and there is no day and night.

However, the sun is actually still rising in the east and setting in the west, but the further it goes, the more blurred the line between light and night brought by this rising east and setting west.

The more Cheng Fan moved forward, the more he felt as if he was advancing towards the realm of the god of death, and the god of death was opening his realm of the kingdom of the gods, sending its ice and snow and the messenger of the north wind to greet him.

The surrounding area is already white, and the green, ochre, or black and yellow mountains of vegetation are very few, and they are scattered like beautiful gems dotted on the white snow and silver plates of the earth.

The rivers that had been rushing in the summer had now been covered by snow, and they were covered with thick ice, like long silver bands wrapped around the waist of the earth.

Cheng Fan walked in the snow, wearing a bear skin to resist the wind and snow, but he miscalculated, the bear skin was frozen hard, not soft at all, but like a piece of cardboard resting on his body.

Occasionally, a gust of wind blows, rolling up the unaccumulated snow on the ground, and instantly the wind and snow hit the face, if you are here, you will definitely feel the pain of a knife opening on the face to cut meat.

A pair of ice-blue eyes stared smartly in the snowy field, and the tail behind him flicked and shook its paws, and if it was inactive, the tail and paws would soon be covered with frost.

It's a harsh world!

Cheng Fan said in his heart, raised his head and looked at the dim sky, the dark clouds at the foot of the mountain were gathering in large numbers, and now the snow had stopped, but Cheng Fan knew through his observations in the past few days that there would be a bigger snowstorm in the future.

The forest after the snow is indeed a fairyland on earth, and it is extremely beautiful, as if you are in a painting.

Natural white and natural green, nature's extraordinary magician performed a large-scale magic trick that did not belong to the world.

The forest was eerily quiet at the moment, with snow accumulating between the branches and leaves of the hardy trees, but a touch of green leaked out of the snow. The glade in the forest is naturally covered by snow, the heaven and the earth are silent, all the sounds are silent, and the sky is endless, the forest and the snow sea, the earth is vast.

Walking in the forest, "bang", Cheng Fan's feet were blocked by something, and the snow bulged into a snow bag, without thinking about it, Cheng Fan subconsciously flew up with a kick, kicked out something strange from the snow, and rolled far away.

He ran over to see that it was a rather fat ptarmigan.

The body of this ptarmigan is extremely well preserved, probably out to forage for food during the snow and ice season, and was accidentally hit by the snow falling from the trees, and failed to escape in time, and was frozen to death here......

Food should be cherished and not wasted, especially in the current skymap.

Cheng Fan knocked off the ice that covered the Thunderbird, lifted the Thunderbird's legs, and continued to move forward.

Everything in the forest seemed to be frozen in ice, the creek was frozen and frozen, the squirrels jumping on the branches in the summer were gone, the brown bears were sleeping soundly in the hollow of the tree, but in the snow, the footprints of wolves could be seen, which proved that they were still active and hunting in winter.

It is more brutal than other warm, well-fed areas, and every year unfortunate animals freeze to death in the cold and starve to death without food.

This is the natural selection of heaven and earth, ruthless and indifferent, and the road of life for hundreds of millions of years has been so from ancient times!

Probably because of the monster's body itself, Cheng Fan is not afraid of the cold, even if it is cold and snowy outside, he can move freely.

The bearskin he was wearing didn't actually bring him warmth, but he still carried it, not to be a little monster in bearskin, but actually to make a bag of bearskin and hold something.

Polar night time, polar night range, the sky is always so dark, I don't know how long it has been, whether it is day or night in the outside world, Cheng Fan walked for a long time, felt the wind and snow falling in the air, and knew that the snowstorm was coming again.

It's not a wise thing to do if you're still hanging out at this time. Although this body is strong and fearless of the cold, but in the snowy mountains under the snowstorm, the wind blows and howls, who knows which mountain is not solid enough to collapse into an avalanche, and the snow that washes down from the mountain is far from being able to resist by man. Even if you can survive an avalanche, you can be buried by a thick layer of snow, and it is not so easy to climb out.

Cheng Fan dug a cave in a leeward col, stayed in the cave, ate cold thunderbird meat, and listened to the angry howl of the wind and snow outside, it is not difficult to imagine that at this time, the sky must be gloomy, the wind demons are haunting, and the snow devils are roaring.

After eating the Thunderbird meat, ignoring the wind and snow in the outside world, Cheng Fan fell asleep in the cave.

When I woke up, I stretched my body, my spirit was full, I dug up the snow hidden at the entrance of the cave, and came to the wilderness.

This is the Far East, winter, the season of ice and snow!
