The wind and snow are boundless, and the wings are all over the sky, and the lonely and glorious place finally gathers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Layered pterosaurs, this small wyvern has a very unique wing structure, the wings on both sides are membranous wings rather than feather wings, but these membranous wings are not a simple layer, but the main body is divided into two harder thin surfaces, connected by countless complex vein structures. When the air passes through the gap between the wings, the slightest change in the thin surface will affect the final flight attitude, so the movement of the pterosaur in the air can often be surprisingly agile and flexible, even the cold wind and snow cannot stop their skills.

That's right, as Xinglan and the others continued to advance to the east, the snowflakes flying in the sky did not weaken, but the situation became more and more serious. This does not mean, of course, that the herd is wrong to take the eastward route, as the east is currently a little warmer than the west, but the overall climate is cooling faster than the rate of migration.

It was as if the entire Northern Yuan Continent was covered by this snowflake flying cloud, and the cold breath made the animals in the south of the land that were not adapted to this environment shiver, and some of the thread-leaved grasses on the prairie began to die, which was not good news for animals.

At this moment, it is not only the stratopterosaurs flying in and out of the sky, but also some strange-looking objects that often glide over in large swaths. These elongated, flat objects with a brown appearance extend their broad wings on either side, like a flock of birds, weaving between the fluttering snowflakes...... However, they were not flocks of birds, so they never flapped their wings, which looked too fragile, but only vibrated slightly with the wind.

They're just flying with the cold wind, that's all, because these aren't really flying animals. This can be seen when two strong air currents collide by chance, causing the projectile in the middle to lose power and fall rapidly to the ground. They are structured like paper airplanes and can fly lightly in the wind, but it is clear that this is only a passive glide rather than an active flight, so it is difficult to fly again once you have landed. The passing beasts were interested in sniffing and touching them, but they soon left disappointed, and there was really nothing to say about it.

These unpowered gliders, which have been apparently unusually numerous lately, are not animals, they are plants, or more accurately, they are the seeds of empty gourds. These paper-airplane-like seeds carry structures suitable for gliding in the wind, and can fly directly from the top of the empty hoist, and can even fly for several kilometers in windy weather. However, presumably to lighten their own weight, they do not have the same abundant pulp as most plant fruits, so even herbivores are not very interested.

It is not only animals that feel the abnormal change in the climate, but also plants, and these empty gourds have entered the season of seed dispersal in advance under the stimulation of wind and snow, which is also a kind of insurance measure for reproduction.

The first encounter with the northern moon praying people didn't come too quickly, but it was definitely not slow. When they walked forward on this prairie for three days, they suddenly met the figure who also had long silver-white hair, but it was different from Mu Xue's empty-handed appearance in Xinglan's coat, and the other party was obviously a veteran of survival here.

As soon as the moon praying man appeared not far ahead, he attracted Xinglan's attention, although the other party was obviously dressed in heavy clothes made of the skin of the Rising Sun, like a wide cloak completely covering his body, but the difference in body was still extremely eye-catching in Xinglan's eyes...... It's just that this kind of eye-catching is obviously a two-way street, because the other party almost spotted them later, and it seems that they are clearly staring at their position.

The reason why it looks like is because the other party's head is wrapped in animal skin, except for the long silver-white hair that is still exposed, and even the face is covered with a mask that is obviously made of some kind of animal bones, so it is impossible to see what the expression and eyes behind it are like.

Interestingly, Xing Lan's first thought when he saw this moon prayer man was that he was much warmer than Mu Xue when he wore it like this, this outfit that seemed to be completely prepared for the cold climate of the Northern Yuan Continent simply made the conventional sense of warmth to the extreme, although this would also reduce agility, but the slender bone spear held in the other party's hand was obviously not taken for nothing. Generally speaking, as long as it is not the case that the attack method of the Xin Yu people is so special that it is completely incomprehensible, in the face of the attacks of most animals, it is still no problem for the Moon Prayer people to escape even if they can't beat them.

However, when the other party saw Mu Xue casually throwing a piece of meat backwards and being skillfully swallowed by the broken blade behind him, it seemed that his whole body was stunned for a moment, obviously shocked...... The huge body of the Broken Blade was naturally extremely eye-catching, and it was far easier to discover its existence than it was to discover Xinglan and Mu Xue, but it seemed that even the Moon Prayer people on this side of the north had never tried such a crazy thing.

"Xinglan, he's coming this way." Mu Xue simply stopped moving forward, and just stopped in place and watched the moon praying man get closer and closer to this side. He was dressed in heavy animal skin clothes and swayed in the wind, holding the solid bone spear in his hand on the ground like a cane, allowing those herbivores to come and go next to him, but the other party's walking posture could tell that it was not a completely relaxed posture, and Xinglan believed that he could react to the situation at any time.

"It's better to be careful." At this time, Xinglan was not as excited as before, because she found that there was something wrong with the movement of the moon prayer person, this was not like the vigilance that should be in an ordinary patrol state, and considering that the other party was going alone, it was obviously not a team that went out hunting, "The moon prayer people of the northern tribe......

The distance between the two sides wasn't too far, so he quickly stood in front of Xinglan and Twilight, his orange fur clothes tightly covering his body, shaking in the wind. The mask of animal bones on his face perfectly concealed his expression, and only some silver-white skin could be seen through the gap, but the direction of his gaze and state of mind could still be roughly judged by the direction of his face.

The presence of the Broken Blade was clearly putting a lot of pressure on him, as evidenced by the fact that he looked at the striking Plains Stalker from time to time, but he approached it anyway, clutching the apparently polished bone spear tightly in his hand. Xing Lan could feel that he was staring at her, and the two sides were silent for about a few tens of seconds, and the prayer moon in front of him seemed to confirm something, and the hand that grasped the bone spear loosened slightly.

"Strange Visitor......" he spoke for the first time, his voice seemingly reverberating within the skulls that made up the mask in such a way that it sounded as low and slow as if it had been processed with a voice changer, "to show that you are approaching the edge of your tribal realm. ”

"Twilight snow, under the light of the frost, crossed the sea from the south." Twilight stared at the other party, even though she was about thirty centimeters shorter than the moon praying man in terms of height, and the other party was obviously not a fledgling teenager, "I'm here to inform the arrival of the last group of northern sea crossers, and to find someone who might be here. ”

"A seafarer from the south?" The Moon Prayer Man in front of him repeated, obviously looking at Xinglan and then at the huge plains stalker, "This is not like the appearance of a sea crosser, you need more strong evidence to prove this, I don't think the southern tribes have ...... Send a child to act as a messenger alone. ”

"Xinglan, the passer-by who accompanied Twilight Snow across the sea." When he looked over, Xinglan introduced herself with a smile on her face, even though the content of her introduction didn't sound any different from saying nothing.

"Suhui, Border Patrolman." Then he was silent for a moment, as if he was choosing something, and looked at Xing Lan with a smile on his face and shook his head, "You are not them, and your characteristics are obviously very different...... Goblin? The demon who can communicate so fluently has never heard of you, what the hell are you? ”

Not to ask who you are, but what you really are.

However, Xinglan didn't care about the way Su Hui asked the question, she was interested in the information revealed in his words just now, which already said a lot: "Looks like you've already seen those guys...... Who am I? It's none of your business. If you have to answer the question, think of me as the one who created the moon......"

Bang!

In just a moment, Xing Lan quickly pulled out a dagger from her waist and slashed at the black shadow thrown out by Su Hui, and the projectile that was distorted was directly inserted into the ground. It was a sharpened bone thorn that was enough to pierce even an unsuspecting human body.

"What a guy who can't afford to make jokes." Xing Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Su Hui, who seemed to have done nothing just now after throwing out the bone spur, and the latter faintly stated her position in that buzzing voice: "Anyone who dares to disrespect the moon god will die." ”

"Wait...... Wait a minute! As if she had thought of something, Twilight hastily interrupted the gunpowder-filled situation, and she reached directly into her clothes, pulling a small section from the torn vine dress in the innermost part and handing it to Suki, "This should be able to prove it." ”

Hui paused, but still reached out to take the small section of vine, and Xinglan noticed some small colored spots on the back of his palm, which are a characteristic that can easily appear when the Moon Prayer is excited. When he gently leaned in and sniffed the scent of the vine, his tone seemed to soften: "Confusion Vine, that's right, this is indeed the kind of unique smell that grows on the land of the south, so you are really a messenger from the south?" How could it be in such a place, this is not a place where it is possible to land at all. ”

What kind of olfactory structure is your nose, hey, Xinglan couldn't help but complain fiercely in her heart, but Twilight Xue couldn't help but continue to ask at this time: "We encountered a little accident when we crossed the sea, so we deviated from the direction and simply came over from the land, is this going to be close to the tribal settlement in the north?" ”

Suhui raised his head again, although he still couldn't see the change in his demeanor under the mask, but judging from the state of his movements, at least he didn't seem to have too much hostility. He glanced again in the direction of Xinglan and Broken Blade before slowly nodding his head and pointing to the east.

"I'll lead the way, it may not be appropriate, but that's all I can say, welcome to the last refuge in the Northlands......"

"Shining Moon Forest."
