Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 16: The weather will get colder and colder


   The weather is getting colder and colder, and the temperature keeps dropping. When I get up every morning, ice accumulates on the water. Every day, a tree man falls on the ground or does not wake up and turns into a real tree.

   Treemen have no natural enemies, but they are still no match for the cold weather.

  Wei Huo began to think of a way for them. First, he woven straw mats out of withered grass and wrapped them around the tree people. This was how people used to protect the street trees before humans stopped.

   In addition, you can also brush some lime water, but where to find lime now?

   Every night, many small piles of bonfires are lit up in the Treant community, otherwise, the moisture inside the Treant will freeze into ice.

  The leaves on the tree canopy are constantly falling off. It looks like a middle-aged person is bald. The situation is very serious. The reduction of leaves will reduce the efficiency of photosynthesis, just like the loss of human teeth. This is very serious. Case.

  Wei Huo is actively trying to find a way, but Shuren is not the kind of animals and plants suitable for long journeys.

   But fortunately, treants have a tougher mind than humans. No matter what happens, even if there is only one treant in the entire tree population, they will continue to the south until they reach the southernmost part of the North Continent.

   But this is just an extravagant hope. Trees die every day, and it will take more than a year for Wei Huo to reach the southernmost part. What's more, the temperature is still falling. Now even at noon, the temperature is only 10 degrees. The temperature at night It dropped to minus thirty degrees.

   Every morning when tree people open their eyes, they will find that a companion becomes a real tree, but they firmly believe that when the climate warms, these tree people will come back to life.

   Until the end, the last tree man fell to the ground. It was not dead yet, it was still moving forward, and it was Wei Huo who was carrying it forward!

   "Don't die!" Wei Huo continued to encourage the thinner tree man on his shoulders.

   said so, but Wei Huo is like carrying a five-story building that has fallen down. Every step will leave a footprint on the frozen ground. Intermittent exercise makes Wei Huo very powerful, the human limiter is unlocked, his strength can grow indefinitely, and human beings have no limits anymore.

   Tree people are different from animals. As long as one survives, they will be able to multiply into a race sooner or later, but unfortunately, the tree people on the shoulders of Wei Huo did not survive in the end.

   Wei Huo dug a big hole, put it upright and buried it in the soil, hoping that, as they thought, when the weather gets warmer, all the tree people will be resurrected.

   Wei Huo took away dozens of seeds from the tree, and put them in a small bag. Finally, he continued on his way to the south.

   A heavy snowfall of goose feathers fell in the sky, and a layer of straw mats were placed on the two giant beasts. Wei Huo not only increased his lifespan because of Qi training, but also did not invade the cold and heat. At least before the energy of Qi was exhausted, he was right. The temperature doesn't feel much.

   They moved on, the ground was covered with snow, and the leaves were all gone.

   There is another reason why the North Continent is so cold now, that is, winter is here.

   Hunting has become more and more difficult. Many animals have died in this low temperature. They all have hypothermia. Faced with extremely low temperatures, without fur protection and sufficient energy, there is only a dead end.

   Of course, if you learn to make a campfire and sew clothes, you can withstand the cold to a certain extent.

  Wei Huo saw a group of monkeys making a bonfire. The monkeys also sew their own clothes, just like humans pretending to be.

   Besides, Wei Huo also saw polar bears and arctic wolves.

  The polar bear and the arctic wolf said: The north is too cold, we have to run to the south.

   However, the two giant beasts showed their effects at this time. From time to time, they would smell some dead beasts, and then go to the snow to plan out some frozen animals.

   In this temperature, the dead animals will not rot at all, and they can be eaten by defrosting them with fire.

   But despite this, the pandas and tigers are almost unable to hold on. Wei Huo basically carries the luggage alone. He also put thick animal fur on the two giant beasts. Nevertheless, they Still can't hold on anymore.

   They seldom growl, because they have to save energy and eat very little. I don’t know why, and they have been very depressed.

   They were originally temperate animals, but when the extreme cold came suddenly, they couldn't stand it anymore.

   They fell down until the day when the highest temperature during the day was sub-zero.

   Hypothermia, a horrible disease threatening all animals and plants in the northern continent. Except for Wei Huo and the human beings who were stopped by Shi Ting, no creatures are immune.

   Wei Huo can’t move on anymore. He can only stay, and then cut down the trees that have long been dead, and then make wooden houses. The trees are too big, and Wei Huo can’t make wooden houses for them, but two The size of the behemoth is not too big.

   "To survive!" Wei Huo built a wooden house for the two giant beasts, created a bonfire in the wooden house, and went out hunting himself.

   But there is already heavy snow outside the wooden house, the snow is already knee-deep, and hunting has become more and more difficult~IndoMTL.com~Wei Huo suddenly remembered the movie he had watched, "The Fantasy of the Youth "Drifting", a teenager and a tiger on the same survival boat, cross the ocean, and are finally saved.

   But Wei Huo’s situation is different from that of the boy. First of all, Wei Huo is no longer a boy, and he is used to seeing life and death. Now, he is just doing his best to save these two giant beasts.

   If they die, Wei Huo may be sad, but he will never cry.

   "What a pity!" Wei Huo touched the heads of the two giant beasts, "I can't teach you the skills of Qi training."

   Qi training skill is a systematic skill. As long as the posture is correct, then the skill can be used to practice Qi, but teach it? How to teach? What's more, it is passed to animals.

   The two giant beasts are dying, Fat Tiger has become a Thin Tiger, and Fatty has also become a Thin Tiger.

   They collapsed in the wooden house, motionless, with their tongues out and panting, as if they were asthma and looked extremely uncomfortable.

   If they wailed a few words, Wei Huo felt okay, but they would not yell when they were in pain like humans. They were always silent and their eyes were confused, but Wei Huo would react a little when patted them. Maybe he would look at Wei Huo, maybe he would move his tail.

   Even if Wei Huo put the food in front of them, they just sniffed and licked, but didn't want to eat it at all. There was no way, Wei Huo had to force them into their mouths and let them swallow it.

   Wei Huo walked out of the wooden house and looked at the gray sky and the falling snow. He couldn't help sighing: "Hey! Winter will last for a long time!"

   Every night is a torment for the two giant beasts. The temperature is still declining, and the low temperature at night is even more terrifying. Even if you continue to add firewood to the campfire overnight, it will not bring a trace of warmth to the wooden house.
