Chapter 418 Winter is coming, the hungry Yanxi Village
Food shortage will be the last straw that will crush Yanxi Village! Fu Xingyun wants to use the harsh environment to make them self-defeating.
The rainy ghost cry ended after seven days, and the clear weather came again as scheduled, but this was the last peaceful time before the blizzard. According to past practice, the tribesmen could move freely, but this year was different. The entire Heting Village was in a state of preparation. The elderly, weak, women and children in the village were sent to store hay for consumption for wild animals raised in winter. Harvesting hay is much easier and easier than hunting. Six or seven hundred people acted together, which was enough to ensure the supply of the whole winter. The strong three hundred elites were on their backs and went on a battle again.
Fu Xingyun did not let Yanxi Village remain peaceful for a moment. They stored less wild beasts and their combat power would be weakened by a little. If they drank less meat soup, they could shoot less arrow feathers. In this way, when the final battle was decided, they might not have to take action by themselves.
"Damn it! The mess in Lianshan Village is here again!" The hunting team in Yanxi Village was exhausted and tired of dealing with it.
"How many people do you have? How much food have you stored?" Fu Xingyun asked when he caught a Yanxi hunter and pressed his neck with his arrow feathers.
"Bah!" Yan Xi hunter had a hideous face. "One day, we will make a comeback and kill all of you!"
"It won't be like this day."
With a "swish", the arrow feathers left Xuan and pierced his neck.
"Let's go, go to the next destination." Fu Xingyun and the others turned into ghosts and disappeared into the dense forest.
Three days later, the warm sun disappeared and heavy snow fell from the sky. Even the most cold-resistant wild beasts chose to hibernate, and there were no traces of creatures in the wilderness.
It was cold and the earth was frozen. Logically, the war should have been put on hold. However, Fu Xingyun did not stop. He brought Little Li, Old Li and a hundred elite troops to the stone wall of Yanxi Village.
"The miscellaneous things in Yanxi Village are coming out to die!" Old Li's voice resounded throughout the valley.
It was still coming to harass it when it snowed, and it was so dark that the guards of Yanxi Village were all filled with righteous indignation. However, they had no choice but to do anything because Fu Xingyun and the others stayed at 1,300 meters, which had exceeded their normal range.
"Looking for opportunities, if anyone shows up, they will shoot and kill!"
One hundred people were unable to capture the valley. Fu Xingyun's purpose was to make the exhausted Yanxi Village even more tired. This kind of fighting method was not efficient, but he could kill more than ten people a day.
On the third day, Yanxi Village, which could not bear it, sent five hundred troops to fight. The enemy advanced and we retreated, and Fu Xingyun and others slipped away like rabbits. However, the army had just returned to the valley, and the arrow feathers of the stone wall flew over again, and Fu Xingyun, who was struggling, appeared again. Yanxi Village was harassing and uneasy every day.
The weather was getting colder and colder, beyond the tolerance of many people, and the harassment team was reduced from one hundred to twenty. "The miscellaneous people in Yanxi Village came out to die!" They were tired, and Yanxi Village was even more tired!
"Go to your uncle!" A Yanxi hunter was overwhelmed and prepared to fight back, but when he appeared, he was shot by arrow feathers. He showed a blur, staggered a few steps, and led down from the high stone wall.
This is the third unlucky guy.
The heavy snow is getting heavier and heavier, and it is getting stronger and stronger day by day. "Brother Fu, the situation is not good. The heavy snow will be closed in a few days."
"Yeah" Looking at the increasingly hungry guards of Yanxi Village on the stone wall, Fu Xingyun knew that his goal had been achieved. When winter came, they began to save money, which meant that their winter reserves were far lower than normal, and this winter would be a bad news for them.
Whoever controls the food will take the initiative. "Okay, let the rest be left to God's will." Fu Xingyun and the others disappeared in the vast snow. They did not come again. Everything was as he said, left to God's will!
The sufficient food source makes Lianshan Village feel fearless. The tribesmen can drink delicious fish soup and eat large pieces of minced meat every day. Old women and children are treated the same way. If it were the past, it would be impossible. Therefore, even if it is cold and frozen, the mortality rate in Lianshan Village is extremely low.
The population of villages is growing explosively.
"Hello, Lord Fu." When Fu Xingyun was on patrol, his tribe members greeted him one after another. His prestige grew day by day. Of course, he didn't care about these things, but people with ulterior motives were extremely anxious.
"What should I do if this continues!" the elders whispered. "Heting Village and Yanli Village have a faint intention of being the leader, and Lord Yue will let it go, and sooner or later it will be out of control." This is exactly what it means to worry about.
"We must do something to weaken his power!" The plot began.
Fu Xingyun stood on the top of the tower, looking at the heavy snow of goose feathers, and showed a meditative expression. "If nothing unexpected happens, Yanxi Village will disappear in the dust of history at the end of winter."
Small-scale conflicts have never been able to conquer cities and land, so Fu Xingyun decided to give Yanxi Village a fatal blow at the right time. And this right time is the end of winter.
As the temperature gets worse, his heat sensing is back, and the sensing range is twice as high as last year. Does that mean that his body's recovery is twice as high as last year? Although he has never recovered his magic power after he transformed into a mortal world, his body is also strong, and he has even surpassed Yueqing, who is the fifth level of Qi training.
There is no time in the mountains. Before I knew it, half a year passed, and the tribesmen had already hibernated in the cellar and hibernated. There was no dispute and no need to worry about food. This may be the quietest time in the mountain village.
Of course, for Fu Xingyun, it is also the quietest time. Because the old woman who is nagging all year round will shut her mouth, she is afraid that she will not wake up if she loses breath. She is always worried about this and that, but she lives longer than everyone else.
"Brother Fu, do you think this year will be like last year, and it will last the whole year after heavy snow?" Little Lizi asked leaning against the wall against the skin.
"Maybe!"
"It wasn't like this before. At most half a year, the climate is so abnormal. I really don't know why?"
Fu Xingyun was silent. The climate here is completely different from that in the western frontier. The four seasons in the western frontier are distinct, but the winter here is astonishingly long.
Little Lizi was sleepy and yawned. "Brother Fu, why are you not sleepy?"
"I'll be sleepy occasionally." In fact, his energy is better than ever. The cold air seems to be a tonic. The colder it is, the more energy it is. To be precise, he has not slept for three days and three nights, and even after seven days and seven nights, he will not want to sleep. He seems to have returned to the fasting state when building the foundation. Personally, he hopes that winter will be longer and colder, which will be more beneficial to his physical recovery. "Little Li Zi, you and the old woman have a good rest, I'll go out."
He walked out of the valley and after a long journey, he came to the entrance of Yanxi Village. The purpose of his trip was to learn about the situation of Yanxi Village.
"A preliminary inference, even if they are struggling to save money, they can only last for half a year! Now that half a year has passed, they should have no surplus food in their hands." It has to be said that he had to infer that, under the thick stone wall, he saw piles of white bones, not the ribs of wild animals, but human bones. The hungry Yanxi Village began to eat people!
What is the difference between eating people and animals? But in the face of hunger, the so-called morality and ethics have long been pale and powerless.
"When winter is over, this valley will be destroyed by itself!" Fu Xingyun turned around and left.
He returned the same way, but when he passed a valley, he sensed something seemed to be moving ahead, very special, with a little temperature but much lower than normal beasts, and even lower than snakes known as cold-blooded creatures!
The weather is so cold that there are still creatures appearing? Soon, a white shadow appears in the field of vision. Fu Xingyun was shocked when he saw it. It was the dire wolf!
Fu Xingyun once killed a pack of 100,000 wolves and was extremely familiar with this type of wild beast. He should not have been surprised at all. However, what he was surprised was not the dire wolf, but why it appeared? Just as the grassland wolf only lives in the vast grassland, the dire wolf only lives in the snow all year round. The short-term blizzard will not attract such snow beasts. What does its appearance mean!
As expected, after half a year, the wind and snow still did not stop. It has been a whole year. At this time last year, spring was warm and flowers bloomed, but this year is nowhere to be achieved.
The emergence of the wild beasts of ice and snow means that winter will be longer. Fu Xingyun remembered the words of Little Li Zi. In the past, the longest winter lasted only half a year, but after he arrived, it increased year by year. Is this related?
The wild beasts in captivity have consumed two-thirds, only one-third are left. I don’t know when the winter will end, so Fu Xingyun issued an order to control food. Even Heting Village, which is full of food, is like this, and the Yanxi Village, which is already eating people, is even more overwhelmed.
The entire wilderness was like a year in suffering. Finally, three months later, his heat sensing disappeared, which meant that the worst was over. Sure enough, a month later, the wind and snow gathered, the temperature rose, and the breath of spring appeared and disappeared. Until the fifth month, the ice and snow melted, the plants and trees recovered, and the winter was completely over.
It lasts for a year and five months, unprecedented. Not to mention humans, even wild beasts with thick skins have frozen to death, which is even called a disaster! But Fu Xingyun feels that all this has just begun, and next year's winter may be longer.
The first thing Heting Village did when Nuanyang arrived was not to resume its homework, but to lead its army to fight. The day before, he had already drawn 300 troops from Yanli Village, plus the 400 troops in Heting Village, forming a 700 army to attack Yanxi Valley.
The soldiers are very fast. In order to prevent Yanxi Village from obtaining food and supply, he privately mobilized troops and strong generals without seeking the consent of Yue Qing and the elders. Although he knew that doing so would attract suspicion and suspicion, he had no choice. "There is only one opportunity, and there is no way to lose it!" He had to appear in front of Yanxi Village with the strongest posture. Can he succeed?
