118 Thousand Pine Castle, a city covered in snow and ice
Woo woo...
The blizzard continued, and the sky was dark, as if it was about to fall. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The city of Thousand Pines is deserted, and in addition to the frozen houses, the pine bamboo is the snow falling all over the ground, and the snow is a full man's height blocking the road, and every step can be knee-high.
"The city is completely frozen in ice!" both complained, not to mention food in this kind of place, and even resting have to worry about whether they will be frozen into ice sculptures the next day!
"It seems to be an empty city, and no one should live here. Listening to the snow flicking the falling snow on her shoulder, she didn't know how long it had been raining in this blizzard, and she stood for a while and her shoulder was plated with a layer of dark blue.
"It seems that without the irradiation of aquamarine, this city has become a dead city completely. Tianyi's face was not very good-looking, and his voice was low and almost drowned in the sound of wind and snow.
The Thousand Pines Castle near the Dragonspine Mountains looks like this, and it's hard to imagine most cities in the center of the Deep Blue Forest.
The temperature is lower there, and the blizzard will not be more violent.
Bell, bell, bell...
Suddenly, the sound of whistling wind and snow was mixed with the sound of beating.
"Anyone? Is there anyone in such a place?"
Everyone's hearts jumped, and a dark shadow under the dark corner not far away knocked tirelessly on the ice wall.
Tianyi tiptoed a little, stepped on the snow, and flew over the thick snow as light as a swallow. He can't float for long periods of time, but he has no problem making short leaps in the snow.
"Oh, it's a guest from afar!" said a dry, thin old man with a weathered face, wiping the sweat from his forehead, and without looking back.
In such a cold weather, his forehead was also covered with a thin layer of sweat.
Everyone approached one after another, quietly watching the thin old man silent.
They didn't understand why the skinny old man did this, or what the point of doing it was.
"I'm really tired from walking through such a snowstorm, I'm really sorry, I should have brought out food to serve you. The thin old man swung the ice hammer in his hand twice and stopped.
"However, there are quite a few empty houses here, and this is the only point in Thousand Pine City. He turned his head and smiled kindly.
Only then did everyone notice that the thin old man had been carved out of the frozen house. The ice crystals on the doors of the two or three rooms in front of him had been chiseled.
The snow was still falling, and it wasn't long before the house would freeze again. But the thin old man seemed to not know any tiredness, and he chiseled into the ice.
Is this guy an idiot, trying to brave a blizzard with a tiny ice hammer in his hand?
Everyone didn't think so, and looked at the thin old man's rickety back in a daze.
He wants the city to come alive!
There's no reason to stop a man from moving forward towards his dreams!
"Uncle, I'll help you!" Tianyi walked over and picked up the ice hammer on the ground, and smashed the ice wall little by little with the movements of the thin old man, hoping to free this room from the ice.
"It's like a weight loss exercise after a meal, and I've grown a lot of fat recently!" Shuangshuang pinched his arm that didn't have two taels of meat, picked up an ice hammer and chiseled the ice wall with a clanging tone.
"yes, it's time to lose weight. Listening to Xue echoed, even for such a lame reason, everyone couldn't find any words to refute.
For a while, five people and ten hands slammed into the ice wall with the movements of the thin old man.
How can humanity lose to a mere blizzard?
The thin old man grinned, the tiredness on his body was swept away, and the movements in his hands seemed to be faster than those of Tianyi and the others!
The ice cubes several feet thick gradually revealed a trace of cracks, so small that it was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye but expanded little by little, extended...
......
In the house, it was the house that Tianyi and the others had rescued from the ice.
"This is pine needle tea, and I was able to chisel out some of it a few days ago. The thin old man came with a tattered plate, on which were six worn-out but very clean cups, and which were rustled with some dark green pine needles.
He took a handful of snow and put it in a pot and lit a bonfire, the warm flames of which lit up the room.
The cold, dampness was dispelled the moment the flames appeared.
As soon as it warms up, people become lazy.
The atmosphere was exceptionally peaceful and peaceful.
"Uncle, this city..."Tingxue took a sip of the fragrant pine needle tea, and her whole frozen little face melted.
"Ah, this city, the first blizzard since five years ago—" The thin old man looked at the irregularly beating flames, his gaze wandering into deep memories.
Five years ago, Thousand Pine City was a vibrant city, with green pine and bamboo forests everywhere.
Until that night comes...
The sky seemed to be obscured by a large black curtain.
The wind whined, roaring like the fury of a wild beast, and the dark blue ice and snow were so merciless at that moment, with the wind howling and rolling a cold snap that swept through the city.
In just one night, Thousand Pine City was plated with a layer of cold ice blue.
At first, people didn't give up, and every morning they got up and began to clear the heavy snow that had piled up overnight.
However, blizzards come and go like air, sometimes blanketing them in a deep blue snow for days. The house, the pine forest began to freeze, and the dealer was even less likely to grow crops.
The roads near Thousand Pine Castle were gradually covered by heavy snow, and the supply caravans never came here again.
The city is like a dead tree that is dying and old, gradually withering and withering.
The people couldn't hold on any longer, and the first one packed up and decided to leave. One after another, everyone left the city, which was buried in snow and ice. Gradually, I don't know when only the thin old man was left.
"Humanity can't lose, it's just a five-year blizzard! Wherever people exist, miracles will happen, because we have the most amazing hands, and they can create everything!"
The thin old man's determined gaze was as bright as the light of hope. His never-defeating temperament infects everyone, just like a bonfire in the ice and snow to inspire everyone.
That's right, it's just a blizzard!
All things will be surrendered before humanity!
"Everyone, are you ready?!" Tianyi stood up straight, and a confident arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Of course!"
"Ready!"
"I'm getting impatient!"
"Hmm!"
Everyone drank the pine needle tea in their hands, and the soft feeling went down the throat to the chest, the warmth was the source of strength, and the old man's determination not to give up, the wind and snow didn't seem to be so cold!
Tianyi grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Let's go! Target Wolong City!"
In the dim darkness of the night, a little glow lit up in the heavy snow.
The figures of the five people gradually disappeared into the distance...
