The snow was more than half a man's height, but they could hear clear footsteps, and at the same time, everywhere the shadow went, the snow on the ground flew up and fluttered on its side, making it look like a big snowball rolling forward.

"Run!" Ariel shouted and turned to run, but tripped over the snow and fell to the ground, eating a mouthful of snow.

Seeing his reaction, Cynthia and the others couldn't help but be a little nervous, and they took out their wands one after another, ready to deal with the trouble.

But just as the snowball was about to roll in front of them, a loud voice came from the top of it, and it was stopped.

"Stop, Blue! Stop! Don't hit anyone!"

Alan then realized that it was a sleigh pulled by a wild boar-like animal, but the boar was very large, similar to a young elephant. Its snout is slightly long, branched to the sides, and it is spewing hot air outward, and at the same time it makes a low "whoosh" sound.

A man wrapped from head to toe jumped off its back.

"I didn't expect to meet someone on the road so early!" the man looked a little excited, "I'm the only one on the road at this time!"

"Y-Hello. Alan hurriedly said hello.

"Hello, boys, oh, and girls!" the man pulled down his hat, waved it at them, and snapped it on his head, "You don't dress warmly in such weather!

The man was right, Alan couldn't feel anything but cold now. Although the wind had almost stopped, and there was an enchantment above his head to block the snow, every time a snowflake fell on his face, it still gave him goosebumps.

"Yes, we ...... Well, we're here for a sightseeing tour. Alan replied simply.

"It's a pleasure to meet you! My name is Chaswell Hluhulhar, and this is my good boy Blue!" said the man, patting the boar's rough, thick off-white fur.

"Just call me Alan, these are my friends. ”

Several other people also gave Khluhar a brief introduction to themselves.

"What a lot of fun, a group of students!" said Heluhar, dancing happily, "It's been a long time since I've seen a guest like you! Would you like to come and sit at my house? I think you need a hot cup of tea right now!"

Seeing that Heluhar was so enthusiastic, Alan glanced at the other people, and then didn't refuse: "Then thank you!"

Not only do they urgently need a cup of hot tea now, but they also need to warm up their bodies thoroughly and dry their clothes, otherwise they won't be able to continue their journey. And it's almost time for breakfast, and a few people need to find a place to sit down and have a good meal. Of course, the best food is also hot.

"Come on!" said to Hluhar as he climbed back on his back and beckoned to them, "though this is the car I usually use to pull firewood, it should be comfortable to sit on, at least, much easier than you walk!"

It was a good idea, and the few of them had had grown up with the waist-deep snow and climbed into the back of the car.

Heluhar controlled Blue's head to turn slowly, and Alan realized that the reins were tied to Blue's two huge fangs. There were also some barbs on the tips of the fangs, presumably with sharp weapons for self-defense, and if it weren't for the presence of Heluhar, they would never have dared to approach this behemoth.

"Excuse me, what kind of animal is this?" Alan was a little curious, "can a wild boar grow this big?"

"Oh, you say Blue?" said Hluhar with a little frown, "this is a 'snow pig', a rare species that only lives around here! They are made for this environment! Look at this thick fur, no amount of wind and snow can wet it! And this powerful nose, he only needs to exhale to blow all the snow off the ground and find the sprouts of plants hidden underneath! Of course, it is also very convenient to clear the snow from the road!"

By this time Blue was already running, and the footsteps sounded heavy but not slow.

"He won't run when I pick up this kid!" Speaking of Xingtou, Hluhar didn't care about the wind and snow, and continued to turn his head and introduce to Allen: "He likes to go out at this time! Because there is no one on the road, he can run happily! Usually even if I don't go to collect dry firewood, I will take him out to run for a while every day, and he will be very happy!"

In this way, they chatted with Heluhar all the way, and before they knew it, they had reached their destination.

Hluhar's home is on the edge of a small village. It was a low-rise dwelling, most of which were covered with snow, except for the Hluhar family, which had been swept away.

"Come in!" said Heluhar, inviting a few people into the room, "It's a little small, but it's still warm!

The structure of the houses here is somewhat unique, it is not boxy like other areas, but round, and even the roof is hemispherical. There are no cubicles or side rooms in these houses, just large rooms with tables and chairs, stoves and beds in different directions, and a campfire in the middle. At first glance it looks like a fully enclosed yard.

In the blink of an eye, the bonfire had been lit by Hluhar.

"Wait a moment, just a few minutes!" said Hluhar, placing a kettle on the campfire and adding something like a leaf to it, "This is the fallen leaf of the Sun Tree, which is not available now." The tea made with it can warm you up all day with just one sip!It's just a little expensive, well, a little expensive......

"Sun Tree!" Alan was a little surprised, he didn't expect to hear about it so soon, and immediately asked, "Where are they?"

"I don't know much about that...... I've only heard from people who sell these leaves that they're far north from here, and I haven't been there because there's a big snowfield just north of here. "It's so barren that the rats can't survive there, so hardly anyone goes except the petty traders who make a living selling the fallen leaves of the sun tree." ”

"Do you know these people, right?" said Allen, "Alan asked.

"Yes, I know that I used to buy Rosali a lot...... But what are you looking for him? do you want to buy some to bring home?" asked Hluhar, "and if so, I advise you not to bother. ”

"Why?"

"Because he told me a week ago that not only his house, but the entire Snoconley business was out of stock. ”
