Chapter 494 Environment
Leaving the Daxue Mountains, Jiang Lin's figure kept shuttled through the cracks in the space.
With the help of the giant stream arm armor, you can reach a thousand miles in one step or two hundred miles in just a few steps.
He originally wanted to stay away from the Great Snow Mountain at least tens of thousands of miles, after all, the ice and snow creatures that were tens of thousands of meters high were too powerful.
Although this is a fragment of the long river of history and everything is taken for granted, Jiang Lin still does not want any mistakes in the seedlings of ancient purple gold wood.
Step three and come to a place 600 miles away from the Great Snow Mountain.
It is still very cold here, and ice and snow cover the whole world.
There are many houses scattered around the white sky, and there are already living people.
But these people did not live happily, and the extremely cold ice and snow weather almost blocked all roads.
In the howling cold wind, Jiang Lin could hear the low choking sounds in the house and the crying of the child when he was hungry.
Jiang Lin didn't plan to pay attention to it, after all, there is no need to care too much about the people and things in the long history.
But in the field of vision, a small figure appeared.
It was a middle-aged man, and he was covered with only two layers of animal skin.
The wind and snow made his hair and beard white.
He held the hemp rope behind him tightly, and a small piece of half of the leg of an unknown beast was tied to the hemp rope.
Although half of his body was covered with ice and snow, Jiang Lin still clearly felt the strong bloody smell on his body.
This man was seriously injured.
His eyes were almost dissipated, and he was moving forward entirely by his willpower.
I walked through the snow with such difficulty until a family stopped in front of the door. I just raised my hand and knocked on the door, but before the door opened, I fell down exhausted.
After the door opened, a woman exclaimed and hurriedly dragged the man into the room, and her loud cry came from soon.
Jiang Lin frowned slightly. Although he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, with his personality, he really couldn't help him.
Even a fragment of the long river of history is equivalent to the real world to a certain extent.
Jiang Lin's figure flashed and then appeared in front of the door.
Firewood was lit in the room, and the smoked black smoke was hard to breathe.
But the temperature brought by the flames can prevent them from being frozen to death.
A three or four-year-old boy was wrapped in animal skins, squatting beside the firewood, staring blankly at the injured man.
The flames melted the ice and snow, revealing the man's wounds.
Half of his body was almost rotten, as if he had been pierced by some sharp weapon. The terrible injury could directly kill him.
However, he did not die, and he came back with the food he had finally found with his strong willpower.
Of course, it's not far from death.
Jiang Lin stepped in and felt the man's injuries carefully.
The sudden appearance of the woman was startled, but she just hugged the man in her arms tighter and looked at Jiang Lin with a panic on her face.
It was confirmed that the man was only seriously injured and had too much blood loss, and Jiang Lin stretched out his palm.
The light of stars gathered from all directions and turned into a round elixir.
In the world of [Pictures of the World], Jiang Lin has nearly the same ability as a god.
If something of a grade is not particularly high, you can create something out of nothing directly.
This pill for healing was bounced into the woman's hand by him: "Give him food, you can survive."
After saying that, Jiang Lin turned around and wanted to leave.
But after walking for a few steps, he turned around and saw that the woman was not moving at all.
Jiang Lin reminded: "If you don't give him food, he will die."
The woman then woke up. She looked down at the pill in her hand, as if she was hesitant.
After all, Jiang Lin was wearing armor, weapons, and carrying a bow and arrow, especially his figure, almost hitting the beam of the house.
Such a figure, coupled with the extraordinary momentum brought by the Taoist Martial Arts, is daunting.
A strong man of unknown origin gave him an inexplicable pill, and she hesitated whether to give it to her man.
Jiang Lin sighed, most women are indecisive and can't say anything.
He could only turn around, swing out a powerful energy, rolled up the pill and put it into the man's mouth.
The pill melts in its mouth, and the powerful medicinal power quickly repairs the man's injuries.
At this time, Jiang Lin suddenly seemed to have sensed something.
He walked over, squatted beside the man, and reached out to caress his wound.
A small ice crystal was pulled out from the wound.
Staring at the ice crystals that had not melted at their fingertips, Jiang Lin clearly felt a hint of vitality.
This is not ice, it is more like a living thing.
Just like... those ice and snow creatures.
Jiang Lin, who had planned to save the person and leave, could not leave now.
Someone was injured by ice and snow creatures 600 miles away from the Great Snow Mountain?
It seems that nothing strange is that the ice and snow creatures have crossed thousands of miles and went from the Great Snow Mountain to the Blacksmith Camp to attack him.
Jiang Lin looked at the woman and asked, "What was he injured?"
The woman looked panicked and replied, "It may be Xuexian."
"Snow Fairy? What is Snow Fairy?" Jiang Lin asked.
The woman hurriedly said, "Since ancient times, it has lived between heaven and earth forever, and was born from ice and snow."
Jiang Lin immediately understood that this should be the creature of ice and snow.
But men obviously go out to find food, so why do they face ice and snow creatures?
Logically speaking, those ice and snow creatures should not need to eat.
Even if you need to eat, you won't eat the same thing as others.
The woman explained: "Snow Fairy has attracted wind and snow. If you want to get food, you must sacrifice it with human blood."
Jiang Lin frowned when he heard this. Ice and snow creatures need human blood to sacrifice?
He subconsciously thought of the giant leg bone under the secluded sea, which also used living people to "sacrifice" to attract bloody insects and take spiritual liquid.
Jiang Lin had a natural disgust and hatred for this sacrifice.
He immediately asked, "Why does Xuexian need human blood?"
"Only human blood can produce the Snow Fairy." The woman said.
Jiang Lin was even more surprised when he heard this. Was the ice and snow creatures born from human blood?
How is this possible? According to previous hearing, this is a creature evolved from the spirit of ice and snow.
What does it have to do with human blood if something born and raised in the earth have to do with things that are born and raised in the earth?
Could it be that ice and snow creatures are not born naturally by heaven and earth?
"Where are you offering sacrifices?" Jiang Lin asked again.
The woman raised her hand and pointed in a direction: "There is a place every hundred miles."
But she hadn't traveled far, and she wasn't sure where she was.
At this time, the man had slowly woken up. When he opened his eyes and saw Jiang Lin, he was startled.
When the man learned that it was the elixir given by Jiang Lin that saved his life, he hurriedly fell to the ground, grateful.
Jiang Lin helped him up casually and asked in detail about the ice and snow creatures.
What a man said is no different from a woman, but he just explained the specific direction.
The village here is less than thirty miles away from the place where human blood sacrifices are offered, and it is already a relatively close place.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to drag his seriously injured body back and forth in such extremely cold weather.
But many people died on the road despite their successful sacrifice and obtained food.
In this regard, he is already lucky.
But this little food is not enough to support your family eating for too long. If it weren't for Jiang Lin, with his current injury, even if he did not die, it would be difficult for him to walk freely before he was consumed.
The only thing waiting for this family is the woman going out to offer sacrifices.
As for whether you can come back alive with food, it depends on God's will.
Once the woman cannot come back, both the man and the child will die.
But this is not an exception. This is true for all areas covered by wind and snow.
And this wind and snow are said to cover a thousand miles away.
Even if they want to escape, they have no chance.
In such an environment, it is very impressive to go out for fifty miles, but it is almost impossible to do it for five hundred miles.
Five thousand miles?
That is even harder than climbing to the sky.
"We are struggling to survive here, but it is impossible. Although it seems inappropriate to sacrifice human blood, in fact, if there is no food given to Xuexian, it may be even shorter."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
When a man speaks, he looks like he accepts his fate.
They have been like this for generations and have never thought about why such an environment exists.
These people have succumbed to fate.
Jiang Lin did not persuade him. After all, things that were imprinted in ideological instinct since birth are difficult to change in just one or two sentences.
Just like the little boy sitting by the fire, he witnessed what his parents did, and he would do the same when he grew up.
It has been passed down from generation to generation, and gradually became an instinct.
Jiang Lin was silent for a moment, then waved his hand.
A lot of food appeared in the house.
There are all kinds of things.
This magical method made the whole family stunned and even more shocking.
They quickly fell to the ground and shouted to the gods.
Jiang Lin said: "These food is enough for you to hold on for a while."
The man hesitated, but gritted his teeth and kowtowed, "I would like to ask the gods to give more food to others. Almost all the villages here lack food, and some families are unable to sacrifice anymore. If there is no gods to save them, they will definitely die."
The history of offering sacrifices to Xuexian and obtaining food has been passed down for many years.
The average life expectancy of these people is very short, and it is a blessing to live to middle age.
No one can tell you clearly when the Snow Fairy appeared and where did the history of offering sacrifices and obtaining food begin.
They only know that there are fewer and fewer people around them, and maybe one day everyone dies until the ice and snow completely flood everything.
Jiang Lin looked up and saw that most of these houses were made of wooden boards and snow blocks, which could not stop his visit at all.
As far as I see, almost all the houses lived a miserable life.
There are only a few who can have food.
Most people were frowning, pale and thin, and their eyes were full of despair.
Some families don’t even have firewood to roast.
Wrapped in animal skins, she was trembling with fear by the cold.
Without additional help, they really struggle to hold on for too long.
Three days?
Or one day?
In an extremely cold environment without food, a few hours is enough to kill people.
Being able to live for so long is already very strong.
Jiang Lin sighed in his heart, but since he has done it, he might as well do more.
Anyway, in the world of [the paintings of the world], I am not afraid of wasting too much time.
He nodded and said, "You don't need to worry too much about other people's affairs, just live well."
After a pause in his voice, Jiang Lin said again: "As for the so-called snow fairy, I will find a way to deal with it."
The man was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What does the god man mean... to kill Xuexian?"
"Of course." Jiang Lin said.
Since it is the ice and snow creatures that have caused the current situation, killing them is the best solution.
However, as soon as these words were said, both men and women looked frightened.
They knelt on the ground and kowtowed again, begging: "Divine man must not do this. If the snow fairy is gone, we have nowhere to get food and will die. Please be merciful and spare our lives!"
Jiang Lin was surprised, but it was easy to understand their thoughts.
In such an environment, relying on the food given by Xuexian is the only way for them to survive.
For a long time, they have become accustomed to this way of survival.
If the snow fairy disappears, they will lose the means of survival.
Jiang Lin frowned and said, "It is those so-called snow fairies that have made you live such a difficult life. If you kill them, you can live a normal life."
"We naturally understand this principle, but have the gods and men ever thought that even if the snow fairy is gone, the ice and snow will not melt for a moment. How long can we last?" said the man.
Jiang Lin said: "Didn't I give you enough food?"
"But there are still many people who don't have food. Not only our village, but there are countless villages that survive on the snow fairy. Unless each of your family gives food that can support the complete melting of ice and snow and the reproduction of other livestock, we..."
Jiang Lin didn't ask any further, the man was telling the truth.
It takes time for the ice and snow to melt. Such extremely cold weather is obviously impossible to be caused by those ice and snow creatures.
Even the Great Snow Mountain may not have the ability to cover thousands of miles.
What's more, the ice and snow melt and everything will revive, and it's still unclear how long it will take.
But Jiang Lin didn't think this was a problem. He could give these people food, which would naturally make the livestock reproduce rapidly.
In the world of [Pictures of the World], it is not an exaggeration to Jiang Lin be called a god.
It’s just that, there’s no need to explain it too clearly to the other party.
Seeing that they were so frightened, Jiang Lin said, "Since that's the case, I will consider it carefully and not act recklessly. You don't need to worry too much."
"Thank you, God!" The man and the woman kowtowed repeatedly, and pulled the children next to the fire.
The child was kowtowed by his parents' head a few times, and he was still looking at Jiang Lin curiously.
He hadn't left the house yet, and he didn't know what was outside, nor did he know what Jiang Lin's existence means.
There are only men and women. In the once distant legend, I heard that not all places in the world are as difficult as here.
Many places are filled with birds singing and flowers blooming, as beautiful as a fairyland.
Unfortunately, they never had the chance to see it in their entire lives.
Jiang Lin didn't say anything more, then went out and distributed food to everyone in the village.
He received everyone's gratitude and he stopped staying.
The giant arm armor tore open the crack in the space, and Jiang Lin stepped in.
When his figure disappeared, the cracks in the space healed, and many eyes looked through the windows and doors, full of awe.
They have never seen such a magical means, nor have they seen such a powerful existence.
Jiang Lin took a step forward, and a small snow mountain immediately appeared in front of him.
At the foot of the mountain, you can see some figures in scattered ways.
Some climbed up the mountain, while others just came down from the mountain.
Some people rolled down and no longer had a rest. There was only cold food, buried with the wind and snow.
