It's strange to say, Xiang En never saw snow in his previous life until he was nearly thirty years old, and whenever he wanted to go to the north to see the snow, he would always encounter all kinds of things, which made his thoughts always fall short.

If you give up your efforts, there is no need to go to see the snow.

Now when I see a snow-white world, I really can't help myself, and I can't control my curiosity at all.

Andrea expressed her understanding and cast a kind look at the child.

Ten minutes later......

The two men added two extra clothes, put on thick gloves, and walked out of the village with their swords.

"What are we going to do today?" Andrea shook the snow off her body, wondering why she had to go into the forest when it was snowing outside.

There is no difference between snow in winter and rain in summer, and if you accidentally encounter a blizzard, you may be buried in the snow, which is worse than rain.

Holding a wooden spear in his right hand and a wooden barrel in his left hand, Xiang En walked on the muddy ground with only a little snowfall, staring into the depths of the forest and not daring to be careless, and replied, "Just go to the river to have a look." ”

Looking at the wooden barrel that Xiang En was holding in her left hand, Andrea raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes were thoughtful, and she said, "Are you going to catch fish?" But the river shouldn't freeze yet......"

"No, I want to see if the water can be used now."

"Oh."

"If you can catch a fish, then drink fish soup today." Xiang En added.

Andrea's eyes lit up, they were very water-efficient, and for the last seven days they had eaten baked dried meat with bread, and every piece of food was calculated accurately.

Although those salty dried meats are delicious, you will still feel tired after eating too much.

It would be a beautiful thing to be able to drink a bowl of fish soup on such a cold day!

Thinking of the possibility of drinking fish soup, Andrea couldn't help but get excited, and hurried ahead to open the way, hoping to catch a fish or two later, and fulfill her sweet dream.

The two of them braved the snow and hurried to the small river not far from the village, which was much cleaner than the inky black water before, and a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the river.

With a flick of a wooden spear, the ice shattered and floated away with the current.

Andrea peered at the bottom of the river, expecting a fish to poke its head out of the small hole, as she had seen on her own glacial lake.

It's a pity that the scattered small fish at the bottom of the river don't bird her at all, and their tails twitch a few times, and those who are far away from them don't come at all.

Xiang En looked at those scattered small fish, and also gave up the ridiculous idea of catching fish.

The fish were almost dead when the river was black, and they managed to recover somewhat, but they couldn't just fish as hard as they could, although they wouldn't necessarily stay in the village for long.

After taking some thin ice and filling the barrel, Xiang En was about to turn around and go back with Andrea with a disappointed face.

At this moment, the grass on the other side of the river moved, and a huge head emerged.

The skull was narrow and covered with scale armor, the shape of the inverted triangle and the golden vertical pupils revealed the same coldness as the temperature, and the body slowly left the grass, gradually revealing its dinosaur-like tough body, like a combination of a Komodo dragon and a tiger with an inverted triangular head.

Xiang En and Andrea couldn't help but stop their movements and looked at the demonic beasts on the other side of the river, one with a solemn expression, and the other with an unknown reason.

One thing is certain, the fangs of that monster are quite bluffing.

Xiang En recognized it, it was a demonic beast scaly tooth beast that was close to the gold level when it was an adult, and it belonged to a kind of demonic beast with neither weak defensive ability nor attack ability.

It is supposed to be here to drink water, and judging by its calm appearance, the river may already be able to drink it!

Xiang En's gaze at the scaly tooth beast was also flickering, he and Andrea's strength growth had slowed down for a while, and he happened to meet this demonic beast, should he try it.

Catching a glimpse of Andrea who was eager to try, he suddenly shook his head again and said, "Let's go back......"

As soon as he finished speaking, the scaly-toothed beast on the other side of the river suddenly turned to look behind him, and then turned around and ran quickly downstream along the riverbank, attracting the attention of Xiang En and the others again.

A low roar was heard in the woods, and three humanoid black shadows rushed out alternately from the woods on the other side of the river, startling Xiang En and Andrea.

Three ragged humanoid monsters with black patches and tumors on their hands scurried in the direction of the scaly-toothed beast's escape, seemingly unaware of the distance between the two of them.

Xiang En stared at the three monsters in the distance with wide eyes, and his mouth opened wide, although he couldn't believe it, he could already determine that the three were one of the corpses that ran out of the village entrance.

The bodies of the three monsters, which could no longer be called humans, were rickety, their faces seemed to be swollen, their mouths drooped like beasts, and their deep white teeth were as terrifying as beasts.

Under the gaze of the two, the rough long tongue flicked in the air, and a few drops of mucus dripped out, which was extremely disgusting.

Maintaining the posture of most of the human beings has given them a lot of psychological pressure, just imagining those black tumors growing on their bodies, the two of them will have goosebumps.

"To... Xiang En, are those villagers? Andrea on one side was also frightened and bloodless, looking at the monster in the distance, her eyes were full of incredulity.

"Obviously......" Xiang En also wanted to say no, but the tattered clothes couldn't help him escape from reality, that is, the dead villagers turned into monsters.

Several villagers disappeared into the forest for so long, they didn't see each other while hunting and cutting trees, and finally ran back after going around and around.

The big mouths that are no longer human-like mean that they have completely become inhuman monsters, a new kind of monster that is not as rigid as undead creatures.

Although their movements are very agile and flexible, in the winter, they are also slightly stiff when they run, and their speed is obviously not fast, so they should not be able to catch up with the scaly beasts.

"What if those monsters come and attack us?" Looking at the three monsters that were far away, Andrea, who was worried and hurried, asked.

Hearing this, Xiang En thought for a while, and replied, "Let's give them a name." ”

Andrea looked at him in surprise, looking puzzled, "Huh? Why give them a name? ”

"Because we value them, we give them names, and with pronouns, we can systematically recognize them."

"It's... Is it? Andrea, who didn't understand this, tilted her head and didn't object.

Xiang En began to think of names for those monsters, and the first thing that came to mind was "zombie", but he was vetoed by himself.

Zombies aren't very magical, this is the world of magic, so we have to take a more magical name.

After racking his brain for ten seconds, he thought of it.

"Let's call them 'ghouls.'"

In this world, there is no such thing as ghoul, and the words used by the people here are also phonetic, greed, corpse, and undead, the three words are split and combined, and it becomes a new word that has never appeared in this world.

The word Xiang En automatically translates to "ghoul", and then explains it to Andrea.

When Andrea understood the new word, she was shocked and shuddered, and the ominous words can also make people feel frightening in different environments.

Turn around and look around the woods behind you, for fear that a ghoul will suddenly run out from behind them.

"Let's go back first, it doesn't seem like it's a good day to go out."

"yes, okay."

Re-energizing, Xiang Eun and Andrea return to the village.
