Black clouds overwhelmed the city, the cold wind blew, setting off bursts of yellow smoke and thick fog, and there was a faint smell of frost and snow in the air......

"Whew"

The hexagonal diamond-shaped snowflakes fell one after another, and the misty clouds shrouded the entire Yongcheng, ethereal and desolate.

Yongcheng is located in the extreme south of the Celestial Empire, the weather has always been hot and humid, even in winter, there is little snow, even if it really snows, it is only a very fine snow, how can there be such a goose feather snow today?

The ground has already accumulated almost knee-deep snow, and the whole world is white, like a sea of frost and snow, and the snow light reflects the heaven and the earth, covered in silver, and now Yongcheng is like a castle in the ice and snow empire.

"Lao Wang, you are wearing too few clothes, look at what you are frozen."

"Hey, I know it's cold...... But all the clothes I can wear are already on...... Actually, it's fine, I work more and my body will naturally warm up, hehe. ”

The middle-aged man named Lao Wang smiled innocently, revealing a mouth full of white teeth, spitting out thick white smoke when he spoke, his hair was covered with white frost, and his rough cheeks had already been frozen into fine cracks.

He was wearing seven or eight thick clothes, and he wrapped himself like a big fat man, but these clothes were all dirty and shabby, and at first glance they had no warmth effect, and he still knew how to tremble after wearing so much.

"This weather... It's so cold, to say the least, there must be minus thirty or forty? ***…… This kind of temperature is not uncommon in the north, but the air in the south is humid. When it gets cold, it's like soaking in ice water, and I woke up in the middle of the night when I hid under the covers last night......"

Another middle-aged man with his arms crossed, his teeth chattering, a thick old military scarf around his neck and a peaked cap on his head...... It's funny to wear a cap on such a cold day, in fact, he also wants to wear a warm hat, but there is a shortage of materials in Yongcheng. A lot of warm clothing is not enough.

"Tsk, the weather is getting more and more abnormal...... Not to mention that he hadn't seen the sun for months, and now he was still snowing heavily...... What can I do? Shall we continue to work? Is it really possible to continue building the walls after such heavy snowfall? ”

"Hey. If we don't work, where can we still get steamed buns? My whole family is counting on my job......"

"Yes, the people of the army are not so kind, they don't want to raise waste wood for nothing...... I want to eat well and dress well. You have to work for them......"

A large group of men gathered together, letting the wind and snow blow down their faces, and one by one they fell on their faces, and the crystal water droplets of Huacheng slid across their necks, making them gasp for breath.

It's winter season.

In places like Tien Nam province, where December used to be late autumn, people usually only wore autumn clothes, and some of the stronger children even wore short sleeves, but this year is different...... Because this year is the first year of the end of the world. The earth's magnetic field, climate, ecology, and earth's crust have long been chaotic, and it is not unusual for Yongcheng to fall in December, and the temperature drops to minus 40 degrees.

Although it is not unusual, many people are not mentally prepared and have not taken precautions...... I was immediately caught off guard.

Just ask. In such a chaotic city as Yongcheng, seven million ordinary citizens can't even eat, and people are starved to death every day, so the quality of life is naturally extremely poor, and the problem of warmth is naturally impossible to take into account, and the lowest temperature in the first few months is only minus 10 degrees. Wear more clothes and endure it to get through......

But now, the weather is so cold that the urine can freeze, and the cold is unbearable for ordinary people, so the cold suddenly rises to the biggest enemy of survival!

The survivors who lived in the buildings were more comfortable...... But there are also many poor survivors who have not been allocated housing for the time being, and can only live miserably in wooden sheds, bridge piers, basements, and abandoned houses, which have no shelter from the wind and rain......

I don't know how many people will freeze to death when the heavy snow fell last night, perhaps, after this cold snap passes, those who freeze to death will not even have a chance to collect their bodies......

"It's coming, it's all quiet, the people of the army are finally here!"

Suddenly, the crowd shouted such a sentence, and many men who were shivering in the cold wind hurriedly turned their heads, but saw that in the goose feather snow, there was indeed a team of soldiers pushing a few small wooden carts to this side with difficulty.

"Everyone, no matter how cold and snowy it is, it must be very aggrieved and hard...... But no matter how aggrieved and tired you are, you must also persevere, the work of building the city wall cannot be delayed, we finally waited for this opportunity to breathe, and we must not neglect the hard-won opportunity because of this bit of wind and snow......"

An officer at the head stood with his hands in his hands, raised his head quite imposingly and said to the nearly 100 men.

"Second Lieutenant Liu...... That's true, but the snow was so bad that it could freeze people to death, and the snow on the ground was almost knee-thick...... Look at ......," the migrant worker named Lao Wang bent down and said in a humble tone.

"Well, the army will naturally be considerate of everyone...... The workers who continue to work today will each receive three more steamed buns..."The officer patted the carriage of the small wooden car and smiled.

"Wow, that's great!"

Three steamed buns are too important for the survivors of the apocalyptic era, don't think that steamed buns only the size of a fist are very lowly, but this is enough for an adult man to have a full meal, if you save a little food, or even enough energy consumption for a whole day, for a strong man who wants to support his family, it is tantamount to a lot of wealth......

To be honest, the army does not have much to spare, although relying on those magic plants to absorb the flesh and blood of insects for nutrition, it can produce more than a million kilograms of food every day, but it is still too much porridge for the monks...... Yongcheng is a very realistic city, its focus is inclined to useful people, even if it occasionally sympathizes with the old, weak, sick and disabled, it is impossible to fully take care of the lives of the weak......

That's right, Yongcheng is providing free food to the weak every day, two steamed buns for adults and one steamed bun for children, but this is not enough to eat, if you want not to starve, then well, you can work for the army, go to build the city wall, to build houses, to help carry, to enlist in the army, to grow crops, to please the officers......

"In addition to receiving three more steamed buns, the army will also distribute some insect eyes to each household, which are high-energy fuels that can burst into flames once ignited for hours, enough to keep warm at night."

The officer raised his eyebrows, and as he spoke, he took out the eye of a dragon lice from his pocket, which was the size of an orange, and he used his gloves to remove the snow under his feet, put the eye on the ground, and then lit the eye with a match, only to see that a blue flame burst out of the ground, and then burned extremely vigorously, the flame was a meter high, and the heat that erupted was quite amazing, ten times more vigorous than the heater!

That's where the high-energy insect eye comes in.

The insect eyes of the first-level middle-level sickle beetle are used for lighting, the first-level high-level red-capped beetle is used for barbecue and cooking, and the second-level low-level dragon lice can be used to ward off the cold, the biological energy contained in this thing is frighteningly high, and I don't know what the ingredients are, in short, its burning value is thousands of times that of coal!

As for the insect eye above the second intermediate level, it is a strategic resource, and its role is more extensive and rare, mostly used for casting, melting, enchanting, talisman making, magic blessings, etc., only inheritors can use it, and it will definitely not fall to the people.

"Uh, when did the army become so generous......"

The crowd whispered and discussed, all of them had their eyes shining, and they all had a sense of disbelief that the iron tree was blooming and the water was flowing backwards, since Commander Lu Dingyun's accident, the army has rarely sent supplies to ordinary survivors on a large scale, and even if there is, it is just a few grains, and now the army is sending so many low-level insect eyes that have been saved up for free on a snowy day, although it is reasonable, but it still makes people feel a little unbelievable.

"The army has always been very generous, especially after Commander Lu and Commander Chu died one after another, and after Commander Dye took power, ......" The second lieutenant officer coughed, and opened the box on a small wooden cart, revealing the low-grade insect crystals loaded inside, and exclaimed:

"Come on, come on, each person will take three worm crystals, it is best to be able to fuse them to strengthen their strength, even if they can't be fused, they can be regarded as extra wealth for you......"

"Wow! Three worm crystals? ”

The migrant workers who built the city wall were all stunned, and then they all burst into cheers, all of them staring at each other with round eyes.

Don't look at the three low-level insect crystals are very rubbish for the inheritors, like Li Jiayu, Dye Hongxia, Yang An, Gu Qing and other super masters of that level, I'm afraid they won't even look at the low-level insect crystals, but this thing is still a good treasure that ordinary people can't desire, in the black market, a good low-grade insect crystal can even be exchanged for ten catties of food, and if it is a red-top beetle worm crystal that can improve arm strength and a spotted beetle worm crystal that can improve leg strength, it will be even more valuable, at least thirty catties of grain can be fried!

Thirty catties of food is enough for an ordinary person to save for nearly two months, so there is such a saying in Yongcheng: A low-level insect crystal is equivalent to a human life.

Not every ordinary person can fuse insect crystals to strengthen their physique, about to calculate, only about one-half of the people have the qualifications to fuse insect crystals, and the remaining half of the people will be weak ordinary people for the rest of their lives, and they will never be able to become strong enough to have the strength to protect themselves......

"Yes, it's three worm crystals, you should be glad that the army has changed its policy...... The policy pursued by the current Dye Commander is ......"

The officer glanced at the migrant workers for a long time, and said word by word:

"All are soldiers!"
