The north wind is howling, the snow is falling, and the vast snowfield in the darkness is full of biting cold chill. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the border of the Chu State, this small city called 'Black Iron' was completely covered by the endless heavy snow, silently endured the ravages of wind and snow, and survived this winter with difficulty.

In a remote corner of the city, a simple hut floats in the darkness of the night, stubbornly resisting the wind and snow.

The mud walls on all sides were covered by snow, and the dead grass on the roof was constantly blown by the strong wind, and the entire roof would be torn open at some point.

Shu Ye lay on the wooden bed in the hut, curled up, wrapped in a tattered animal skin, shivering with cold.

His stomach was so hungry that he almost fainted, and his whole body was sore, and he had no strength.

The tightly fastened doors of the hut were opened, and cold winds drifted in and snow splashed.

In the cold wind and snow, a thin girl in coarse linen rushed in, threw the small sack in her hand on the ground, sat in front of the bed, and quickly poked her palm towards Shu Ye's forehead.

Her hands were as cold as ice, slender and thin, full of scars, and her body was covered with ice and snow, and her clothes were extremely thin and covered with countless patches.

When she reached out of her palm, she felt that the heat on Shu Ye's forehead had subsided a lot, and her face, which was bruised by the cold, instantly showed a happy look.

"Xiaoye, you wait, my sister will cook you a bowl of rice porridge right away. ”

She carefully wrapped the animal skin for Shu Ye, picked up the sack, poured out a part of the coarse rice inside, and quickly began to cook porridge.

Shu Ye looked at all this blankly, wondering why his soul suddenly came here and came back to life after being slapped by that mysterious giant palm.

He could clearly feel cold, hungry, which he could not perceive as a soul.

Looking at the girl's emaciated and busy back, the messy memories in his mind suddenly flooded in, making him understand all this instantly.

For some reason, his soul traveled through time and space, came to another world, and merged into the body of another young man who had just died, also named Shu Ye, and inherited the other party's body and all his memories.

This is a vast world, wild and horizontal, vast and boundless, without any scientific and technological civilization, only the martial arts and power that dominate the world.

In the memory of the dead teenager, human beings are divided into countries, inhabited by towns and villages, and worship strength as life.

The girl's name is Shu Xueyi, and she is Shu Ye's sister, and the two are attached to the black iron city under the jurisdiction of the Exquisite City, living a poor life.

Black Iron City is mainly used to collect iron, refine and sell refined iron, and is a poor small city controlled by the big northern city and the Exquisite City.

It is located in the depths of the Beiming Snow Field, close to the iron-rich Black Iron Mountain, because this place has heavy snow all the year round, extremely cold, grain and grass crops can not survive, so the people living here are very poor, can only rely on collecting iron on the Black Iron Mountain, refining it into fine iron, and exchanging food and clothing for food and cloth to the Exquisite City to survive.

Shu Ye, a young man who had just died, died because he was digging up precious 'iron crystals' when he was collecting iron in Black Iron Mountain, and when he was robbed, he was pushed off the cliff, and after being injured, he was stimulated by the wind and snow and infected with wind and cold.

His last wish before he died was to drink a bowl of hot rice porridge.

It's a pity that there is no food at home.

In order to fulfill her brother's wish and let him get better quickly, Shu Xueyi ran into the city desperately in the dark night of the storm, trying every possible way to get a little life-saving food.

But what she didn't know was that she was still late.

In the moment before she returned, his brother's soul had dissipated, and now it was Shu Ye's soul from another world that was alive.

Watching the girl carefully pour the coarse rice in the sack into the iron pot to make a fire to boil porridge, Shu Ye felt in her heart and really felt the strong care from her family.

Shu Ye, who had never felt family affection, was full of emotion, and a rich warmth spread instantly in his heart.

Looking at the emaciated figure of the girl, he suddenly made up his mind and decided to take root in this world and survive, live a wonderful life again, and make up for all his regrets.

"From now on, we are the same person, no matter where, no matter where, there is only one Shu Ye, your life is my life!" Shu Ye felt those strange pictures in his memory, and secretly swore in his heart, "Those humiliations, those sufferings, I will take them back one by one, and I will never let it happen again." ”

"Xiaoye, drink it quickly, warm your body, and the illness will get better soon. ”

Shu Xueyi served the cooked porridge to Shu Ye and looked at him with a happy face.

She obviously felt that Shu Ye's face was a little better than when she went out before, and it was no longer so pale.

Shu Ye was indeed hungry, so she took the porridge bowl from Shu Xueyi's hand covered with carbon chips, smelled the fragrance of rice porridge, and couldn't help but take a big sip.

Coarse rice is a mixture of rice and rice bran, which is very unpalatable, but Shu Ye found it very delicious under extreme hunger and cold conditions, but after a few sips, he drank a large bowl.

"Drink it slowly at night, there is still it in the pot, and my sister will serve it to you again." ”

Shu Xueyi patted her younger brother on the back a few times, took the empty porridge bowl in his hand, poured all the remaining rice porridge in the iron pot into the bowl, and served it to Shu Ye again.

The hot rice porridge warmed his body a lot.

Wisps of cold air are quickly excreted from the body as the blood accelerates.

Shu Ye looked at Shu Xueyi, pushed away the porridge bowl she handed over, and refused to drink any more: "Sister, I'm almost good, you can drink the rest." ”

After he finished speaking, he moved his arm with a smile and showed it to Shu Xueyi.

"No, Xiaoye, you drink, my sister is not hungry. She shook her head and insisted on stuffing the porridge bowl into Shu Ye's hand, "This is specially reserved for you, you must get well quickly." ”

In the past two days, she has been taking care of Shu Ye, she has never eaten anything, and the only things left in the house have been used by her to exchange for medicinal materials.

She couldn't tell Shu Ye, no matter how difficult it was, she only hoped that her brother could hold on and get better slowly.

Fortunately, Shu Ye has been half-asleep for the past two days, and he didn't know that his sister was bent on deceiving him.

Now that Shu Ye has woken up, her face is better, but her injuries are still very serious, and she must leave a little food for Shu Ye to replenish her strength and resist the cold.

As for herself, on the snowfield, there are often snow rats infested, and if she works hard, she can also catch one or two to satisfy her hunger, as long as she survives this period and waits for Shu Ye's body to heal, she believes that everything will be better.

Shu Ye watched the expression on her face change, thinking of the situation in herself and her family, she instantly understood, and she was full of emotion, but also extremely distressed.

"Sister, if you also fall and I'm not well, then what should we do?" Shu Ye asked, forcibly stuffing the porridge bowl back into her hand, "I'm really much better, I feel like I'm warm all over my body, and my body strength has recovered most of it." ”

He sat up straight and waved his arms to Shu Xueyi.

Although he was only sixteen years old, his bones were already quite strong, and his fists were swinging.

After the body replenishes heat, the blood becomes very smooth.

Shu Ye was distracted and found that his injury was getting better very quickly.

The cold that wrapped around his body was cleared in a matter of moments, and streams of heat seeped out from the inside out, making him sweat all over, and the wound covered in coarse cloth showed a burning sensation, as if flesh and blood were growing rapidly, and even the bones in his body that had been broken by the fall no longer hurt......

His body, as if suddenly, was completely stimulated by something, and his self-healing ability was several times faster than that of ordinary people.

Shu Ye felt the changes in his body, and while he was amazed in his heart, he instantly found that the Tianxin Stone that was fused with his soul had moved.

The clear red light passed through the Tianxin Stone, radiating from his heart to his whole body, and through the blood, it turned into a stream of heat, pouring into Shu Ye's limbs and hundreds of remains.

The fiery sensation emanated from the inside out, causing a layer of hot sweat to break out all over his body in an instant.

Shu Xueyi looked at a layer of sweat on Shu Ye's forehead, stretched out her hand to probe again, and couldn't help but 'huh'.

Shu Ye's body had returned to normal body temperature in this moment, his pale complexion gradually turned ruddy, his eyes were bright, his consciousness was clear, and he seemed to have completely returned to normal.

"Xiao Ye, you're really much better. She was full of joy, and though she had doubts, she did not think much of it.

Shu Ye knew that all this was due to the Tianxin Stone in her body, so she nodded in surprise and asked her to drink the rest of the rice porridge as soon as possible.

Shu Xueyi was happy in her heart, seeing her younger brother getting better, she no longer insisted, and instantly drank the rice porridge in the bowl, with a smile in her eyebrows.

Her mind slowly relaxed, and a warmth swelled up in her body, feeling that the hardships and fatigue of the past two days had disappeared in this moment.

Shu Ye remembered that the granary of the refining workshop in the city was empty half a month ago, looked at her sister, hesitated for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Sister, now that the wind and snow are continuous, every family is having a very difficult time, except for the city lord Zhu family, the city has long been out of food, where does the food in my sister's hands come from?"

In the Black Iron City, where it snows heavily all year round, food is more important than life.

Shu Ye remembered the days he had experienced before, and sighed lightly in his heart, surging with countless emotions.

In previous winters, when it was hard to endure, he and his sister would go around the city to borrow grain, but no matter how difficult they were, even if they were about to starve to death and begged, no one would be willing to lend a grain of rice.

In this cruel winter, the last thing to rescue them is often the occasional snow rat that sprang out of the snowfield.

He and his sister are always exposed to the wind and snow, hunting snow rats on the snow field all day long, roasting food, and surviving the long winter.

Every midwinter in memory is a test of life and death.

So Shu Ye knew that the bag of grain that his sister brought back definitely had some additional conditions that he didn't know.

"In Black Iron City, there are always one or two people who pity our sister and brother. Shu Xueyi turned her head and replied vaguely with a hanging face, "Xiaoye, your illness has just improved, so don't worry about these things." ”

Shu Ye felt her sister's flickering words, she must have hidden something, and was about to ask again, when a heavy footstep suddenly sounded outside the house.
