The snow is falling, and the knife is biting.

"Xiao Er, another pot of hot wine, this ghost weather, it's really freezing to death."

The person by the window in the restaurant covered his cotton clothes, his face was red from the cold, he rubbed his ears, and his legs trembled.

"Okay!"

Xiao Er replied loudly, blushing and exhaling hot air, jogging over with a pot of soju, and carefully wiping the table with the cotton cloth in his arms.

"Guest officer, is it the first time to come to our Jinbian?"

"Alas, I made a little money a few years ago, so I went here to pour some season, but I didn't expect it to be so cold."

Xiao Er put the cotton cloth back in his arms, rubbed his hands, and said: "It's cold, every year in this season, thousands of miles of snow drift, and there are many people who freeze to death in previous years. ”

"Eh, okay, thank you, Xiaoer."

The merchant hurriedly brought himself a cup of hot wine and drank it all in a big gulp, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he took out a few copper plates from his pocket and handed them to Xiao Er, "Here, take it." ”

"Oh, thank you! Good luck with your business! ”

Xiao Er took the copper plate, did not dislike the cold hand, clenched it tightly, and hurriedly thanked him.

Wang Xu, who was sitting next to the stove, pricked up his ears and secretly listened to the customs here.

He was dressed in a snow fox robe, wearing a green jade official hat, and wearing gold-inlaid black boots.

Wang Xu was originally just an ordinary office worker who ate and waited for death in the unit, but one day after getting drunk, he couldn't afford to get drunk.

In a drunken dream, he became a spiritual mage, and after finally achieving the Yuan Spirit, he encountered great changes in the heavens and the earth, and had no choice but to choose reincarnation.

When Wang Xu came to his senses and opened his eyes again, he had been reincarnated on a battlefield full of apostles, demon kings, and fire mist warriors.

Then he saw the overwhelming red flames erupt, his eyes were dark, and when he woke up again, he was in this Northland Snow City, and now it has been seven days.

For seven days, he would come to the hotel every day to order a table of delicacies and drink two pots of soju, the purpose of which was to understand the customs and customs of the place.

Ice crabs, as Xiao Er said just now, are a specialty here, and they are precious ingredients that can only be caught at this time.

The crab catcher can catch a large number of crystal clear small crabs with a net in the prepared ice hole.

This kind of ice crab is not big as a whole, and when it is roasted with fire, the shell will break, and it is really delicious to eat.

In this kind of weather, the merchants who came from all the way from the Central Plains were basically purchasing this kind of fresh goods, and the price was naturally very expensive.

I heard that if it is in the south, ordinary people eat it once a year, which is considered a luxury, but it is conceivable that many people may not have seen it in their lives.

Wang Xu held the roast meat in the brazier with chopsticks, drank hot wine, but thought about other things in his heart.

I'm afraid that the primordial spirit in his body can no longer let him be reincarnated, in other words, if he dies again, he is really dead.

Wang Xu sighed, besides, he has no power to exist now, and he is a rich boy who has no power to restrain his hands.

When he first arrived here, he also wanted to devour a few people to restore the existence power in his body, but he helplessly found that everyone he met did not match him.

Wang Xu thought that when he was reincarnated in a world where the laws were harsh and gods and ghosts did not exist, he was about to eat and wait for death.

But after observing in the past few days, he found a few strange places.

Wang Xu was thinking about things when a few screams came from the second floor of the hotel.

"Oh no, he is frightened outside the king!"

"Horror?!"

"What's wrong?!!"

Pedal Pedal –

A group of people ran down from the upper floor, all dressed gorgeously, and at first glance they looked like rich families, and everyone was full of panic and wanted to jump down the stairs.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”

"A few masters, this is it!"

At this moment, the hotel owner was sweating profusely and looked panicked, leading a group of government soldiers wearing official uniforms with knives hanging from their waists and walking in quickly.

The cold wind mixed with the flying snow roared in, and the originally panicked people also cleared their minds.

Wang Xu grabbed a woman with a face covered in powder and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?!" ”

"Wang, outside the king, he was drinking upstairs, but, but, suddenly, he rolled his eyes, fell down, and then, after someone helped him up, he, he, he directly opened his mouth and bitten, and saw who bit whom."

The woman looked frightened and hid behind him, stammering her narration.

Wang Xu stood in the middle of the crowd and watched the two government soldiers carry down a person from the upper floor, obviously in winter, the people around him were all cold and red, but this person's face was pale, his eyes were all white, his tongue was sticking out, and his mouth was full of blood, which was extremely scary.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

A soldier who walked in front of him with a scabbard in his hand dispersed the crowd.

"Oh my God, is this still a king?! So kind of person. ”

"yes, yes, I saw it yesterday and it was fine, what, alas!"

"This is a shock, I guess I can't pick it up, God has no eyes, such a kind person."

The crowd stirred and quickly made way for the soldiers to leave.

It was still snowing heavily, and after a while, a layer of snow-white mourning clothes was laid on the outside of the king.

After this incident, there were a lot fewer people in the restaurant all of a sudden, the original mocking voice became a whispered discussion, the atmosphere was suddenly depressed, and the junior second runner in the running hall was no longer optimistic and cheerful as before, standing by the stove, adding coal, burning wine, the hotel owner was nowhere to be found, and it was estimated that they went to the government together.

Wang Xu sat back in his place, looking at the table full of wine and delicacies, he sighed and was about to leave.

The door of the hotel opened again, the cold wind mixed with the snow, and several strong men in long cotton tights walked in one by one, lifted the tail of their clothes and sat next to the merchants.

The strong man led by him took off his half-wet dogskin hat, hung rings on his ears, and had black hair all over his head, "Xiao Er, let's have two pots of good wine first, and I want the best burning knife!" ”

The man on the side was not happy, "Big brother, although we have done this vote, what will we do in the future!" ”

The man with the ring took the soju handed over by Xiao Er, and took a sip directly at the wine jug, "Cool!" If he has wine to drink today, he will do whatever he will do tomorrow. ”

"However, the fishing village has been ......" The man on the side wanted to say something after a little inaction, but finally sighed and drank wine.

"Dare to ask a few heroes what's wrong with the fishing village?"

The merchant sitting on the side was drinking wine and eating food, and suddenly heard something related to his business opportunity, so he hurriedly picked up his wine glass and asked.

The three men turned their heads to look at the merchants, raised the wine glasses in their hands and knocked on the table, and drank them all in one gulp.

The man on the side sighed and said, "This year's ice crab business is over." ”

"How so?!" The merchant was shocked, he had been preparing for a long time along the way, just for this business, "This brother, please make it clear, I am desperate!" ”

The man drank several sips of wine, but the expression on his face was even more sad, and said: "Our group has just returned from Zhao Village, alas, there are not a few dead people left in the entire village, how can anyone go to the cave to fish for ice crabs." ”

"What?!"

A man at the next table couldn't sit still, "Zhao Cun is also here?!" ”

"It's not just Zhao Village, Liu Village is a little better, but a lot of people have died."

The strong man with the ring drank a pot of wine, poured it again, and saw that there was really no more, "A lot of people have died in the fishing village near here this year, and I heard that the coffin makers are too busy this year." Little two, two more pots! ”

"Alas, what's wrong with this world!"

"God won't let us pass, this is!"

The whole restaurant was full of lamentations for a while.

The merchant stood in his seat, muttering to himself, "What the hell is going on, how can this be." ”

"It's a demon!"

A tall man with a meaty face and muscles all over his body said suddenly.

"What do you say, brother?"

The man with the ring looked curious, spit out the smell of wine, and urged drunkenly.

The muscular man looked around, his face proud, "A few days ago, I was running errands in a fishing village, and I saw with my own eyes a monster with long hair and sharp teeth and a sharp mouth devouring a living person, the monster was two feet tall, and he swallowed a living person alive in one bite, and when he chewed it, it was full of blood!" Not what a snow ghost is! ”

Wang Xu was about to leave, but he didn't expect to hear this kind of thing suddenly, so he hurriedly approached and listened carefully.

Originally, he wanted to go around other places to see if there were people who matched him, so that he could absorb the power of existence.

I didn't expect to hear about the gods and ghosts.

As a result, after listening to it, he was slightly disappointed, he had heard stories like this I don't know how many times.

"Big brother, could it be that it's really a snow ghost?" A man's face was full of doubts.

"This brother, it's not that I don't believe you, it's too." The man with the ring smiled and took another sip of wine.

Wang Xu shook his head and smiled, turned his head and went back to throw a few copper plates at Xiao Er, and was about to leave.

Bang Bang!

The muscular man slammed the knife in his left hand on the table, his face flushed.

"Empty words?!" After speaking, he pulled out the knife, pointed to the red marks on the blade and said: "My Northern Crazy Sword Mo Tian has been in the martial arts for so many years, do you think I can only talk empty words!" Take a good look, what is this! I took a lot of effort to cut off one of its arms, and that's the proof. ”

The group leaned over and stared at the blood stains on the blade, looking left and right.

"This, this, how does it feel exactly the same as when my mother-in-law killed a pig."

A man dressed as a farmer hesitated.

“……”

"Hahaha!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

"Fuck your son of a bitch!" Mo Tian's face turned red, and the green tendons on his neck bulged out angrily.

"This brother, I wonder if you can show me this knife?"

At some point, Wang Xu returned to the table and asked with a smile.

"Good, good!" Mo Tian's eyes were full of anticipation, and he quickly handed over the hilt.

Wang Xu took the handle of the knife with his right hand, and stroked it from the root with his left hand until he stopped in front of the bloodstains.

He hid the fluctuations in his heart and calmly handed the handle back to him, "I'm sorry, I can't tell what kind of blood this is, but it's definitely not pig blood." ”

"This brother still knows how to do it, what kind of pig blood, will the blood of your pigs not coagulate for so long!" After Mo Tian finished speaking, he directly returned the knife to the sheath, got up and left.

No one noticed, and the blood stains on the knife edge suddenly turned black and solidified.

When the swordsman Mo Tian passed by Wang Xu's side, he hugged his fist slightly, and then walked away in the wind and snow.

After Wang Xu sent the swordsman away, he didn't leave, but ordered a pot of hot wine again and sat down.

This swordsman had arrived earlier than him, and it would have taken him a few hours to say the least, but the blood stains on his saber had not yet dried, which was puzzling.

This is not the reason for the fluctuations in his heart, what really excites him is the power of existence contained in the blood!
