Origin Chapter 157: Walking alone in the snow


It gets dark earlier in winter, and it gets dark earlier when it snows. Seeing that night is coming, Wu Zhongyuan begins to worry about where he lives. The weather is so cold that he must find a place to spend the night. He will definitely freeze to death if he wanders in the wild.

At this time, it was not like modern times. There were no unfinished buildings on the roadside, and no orchard nursery. There were only two options to spend the night in the wild. One was to find a sheltered place to build a fire for warmth, and the other was to find a natural cave. But he didn't carry any tools to make a fire, so he couldn't make a fire, so he could only find a cave.

The caves are not everywhere, so he had to look for them. Until night fell, he couldn't find a decent cave, let alone a decent one, but he didn't see any decent ones.

After searching for more than an hour, Wu Zhongyuan gave up, the possibility of finding the cave is too small, it is better to keep moving forward and rush to the next village as soon as possible.

But he doesn't know where the next village is, nor how far the next village is, so he can only bite the bullet and move forward.

The further forward Wu Zhongyuan went, the more uncertain Wu Zhongyuan felt. The snow on the ground was so thick that it covered the road, and the road was full of big trees. There are shrubs growing, without shrubs, it is not easy to tell the direction of the road. To avoid getting lost, he could only stop every once in a while to clear the snow and check for fallen leaves and dead grass under the snow.

However, this method is not very safe, because there may not be many people walking on this road, and there are also dead grass and fallen leaves on the road.

The shoes he wears are made of cowhide leather. When he walks in the snow for a long time, the snow seeps in through the eyes of the needles. His feet have long been frozen and numb, and his body is getting colder and colder. Walk, keep walking, you will sweat, sweat will freeze, freeze will make it colder, this is a vicious circle.

Wu Zhongyuan was in a low mood when he left the village. When he was walking hard in the snow, his mood turned into depression and annoyance. At this time, he couldn't help but want to laugh. When he thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to be doing anything. How can you be retributed for something wicked, if it's not retribution, how can you be so unlucky.

It is said that Fu Wushuang and misfortune do not come singly. This is really the case. I don't know when a group of wolves follow, there are a dozen of them, just a few dozen meters behind, and when he leaves, the wolves also leave. He stopped, and so did the wolves.

Wu Zhongyuan was full of anger and let out a breath. After seeing the wolves, he immediately took off the longbow on his shoulders and opened the bow with an arrow.

A strange thought came to his mind as he opened the bow, it would only be interesting if the bowstring was broken.

But he hasn't been unlucky to that extent, the bowstring hasn't been broken, and he didn't shoot the arrow. In fact, there's nothing wrong with this pack of wolves. It's freezing and snowing. If it's not hungry, who would come out to hunt , Forget it, don't rush to kill them, wait until they really come up to attack.

The wolves are still quite afraid of bows and arrows. Seeing him take the arrow and open the bow, they turned around and ran away.

As the saying goes, if you stand at a high place and look far into the distance, if you stand at a high place, you may be able to see the light in the distance. Thinking of this, he will leave the road and walk to a high place. Snowy days are also good for snowy days. That is, you can leave footprints, and when you reach the top of the mountain, you can go back the same way.

After finally climbing to the top of the mountain, Wu Zhongyuan found that he had come in vain. At this time, it was still snowing in the sky, and the surrounding area was white and could not see anything. To take a step back, even if there is no snow, it is estimated that there will be no fire. Who would start a fire in the open air in this kind of bird weather.

After a wry smile, he started to turn back on the same path. Not far away, he suddenly heard a strange noise behind him. He turned his head to look back, and found a black shadow swept eastward from the top of the mountain.

Seeing this, he hurriedly ran back to the top of the mountain again. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance. He saw a blurry black shadow drifting eastward fast in the wind and snow. This kind of movement has exceeded the scope of Qinggong. Flying through the air, which can only be performed after being promoted to Purple Qi.

But he just watched the dark shadow go away, and didn't shout, and he shouted in vain, and people would not turn around and come back to show him the way.

When the shadow disappeared, Wu Zhongyuan turned around and wanted to go down the mountain. As soon as he turned around, he suddenly found something on the snow. He squatted down to take a closer look. It was a few drops of blood. Due to the unusually cold weather, the blood did not seep in. snow.

The shadow in the past was relatively petite and should be a woman. I don't know what happened to this person. In short, it was injured.

Just as he was checking the blood droplets on the snow, two huge black shadows appeared in the air to the southwest. If it hadn't snowed, he would have been able to see what the two shadows were, but unfortunately it was snowing , he couldn't see it clearly, he could only be sure that the two shadows were not people, because people's bodies were not so big.

The two shadows moved very fast. For safety reasons, Wu Zhongyuan hid behind the tree and tilted his head to observe. When the shadows were within 30 meters, he saw the real bodies of the two shadows. Two huge eagles.

These two eagles are much larger than their counterparts, with a wingspan of at least four to five meters, and their coat color is similar to that of common eagles.

Two eagles fluttered their wings and flew from a distance. When they flew over the top of the mountain, one of the eagles actually said, "There are footprints on the top of the mountain."

"It's a man's footprint, ignore it," said another eagle.

Hearing the eagle's words, Wu Zhongyuan was very puzzled. After thinking about it, he suddenly realized that these two eagles are not real eagles, but masters of the cattle race who can transform into beasts. When I suddenly realized it, I was also terrified. Fortunately, one of the guys had good eyes and knew that there were man's footprints on the ground, otherwise he might have come down to chase him.

The two eagles flew eastward and quickly disappeared.

When they left, Wu Zhongyuan hurried down the mountain and continued to move eastward from the forest.

The three people who passed by before also went east, and if he went east, he would probably bump into them, but he knew that, he could only go east, because the road was to the east, if going south or Going north, the chances of encountering a village are even slimmer.

I haven't eaten for a day. Wu Zhongyuan has long been hungry, but hunger can be tolerated. What makes him unbearable is the severe cold. It's too cold. The frozen temples on both sides hurt. The trachea directly choked into the lungs, causing a burning pain in the lungs.

He has been walking in silence, his mind is a little dazed, in order to refresh himself, it may be because of frozen consciousness, he began to sing, "The snow is fluttering, the north wind is blowing, the world is full of Vast..."

He seldom sings, not only out of tune, but also forgetting the words, but these are not important, because there is no audience, even if there is, they can't understand what he is singing, because he uses a modern language and can hear Those who understand are thousands of years later.

It is said that a man who can sing is more likely to win the favor of women, but unfortunately he belongs to the category who can't sing. Long, walking on the song. Looking back, looking at the stars. The past is like a cloud of smoke..."

At the end of the song, he couldn't even listen to it, so he stopped singing and instead said to himself, "Am I sick, why am I running back when I'm not sick?"

"What's wrong with me? I have to play noble. What's the difference between me and those stupid women with a savior complex?"

"Oops, beauty, don't leave me, or I won't be able to live."

"Well, you're so poor, I'll marry you."

"Damn it, they took the bait, why did I take the bait? It's up to me whether they live or die, and I didn't eat a grain of their rice."

"It's not right, I can't do it if I don't come back. The 18th Bureau will kick me back. I'm not looking for abuse myself. I was kicked back by someone else."

Fortunately, there is no one else around, otherwise he will definitely be regarded as a lunatic, even if he does not understand what he is saying, he will be regarded as a lunatic, because not only is his language wrong, but his tone is not normal.

Actually he's a little bit delirious now. He underestimated the effect of cold on people. Hypothermia can slow blood flow and cause a series of adverse effects, including physical weakness and loss of oxygen supply to the brain. Insufficient, he now sees things have begun to ghost.

He continued to walk for more than half an hour, and he began to feel hot. How could it be hot at this time? The reason why people take off their clothes before dying.

Recognizing the badness of his own situation, Wu Zhongyuan calmed down. In fact, he has nothing to miss, he has nothing, and he has nothing to worry about, and he doesn't have to worry about being embarrassed after death, because no one knows him. There is no need to worry that Wang Xinran will be sad, because in Wang Xinran's imagination, he will be the king and the king when he comes back.

No, I can't say that I have no worries. There is also a sanhu, and I have not been able to do what I promised it.

But it doesn't matter, the current Sanhu doesn't know his existence, nor does he resent him for his broken trust.

No, even if Sanhu didn't know of his existence, he would still lose his trust.

But there's nothing I can do. It's not that I have the ability to do it and I didn't do it, but I died.

Wu Zhongyuan is just moving forward mechanically, just to persevere. In fact, he has no hope. There is not a single footprint in the snow. Even if there is a village in front of him, it is far away.

It would be a lie to say that he has no regrets. Now that he is back, he should pay homage to his parents. Others have no favors for him. His parents are still very kind to him. It was the wizards who had gone wrong. He didn't remember his parents, and Wu Hao had no impression of them either, but just because his father dared to bring him back to the bear clan to raise him, he should give him a thumbs up. In today's words, he is an illegitimate child. Ah, father will be criticized for taking him back to the bear clan. What is daring to be daring? Both are correct.

Being a son, I don't want to lose my father. Although Wu Zhongyuan didn't do anything, he was a little proud in his heart. Once he came back bravely, he didn't need it anymore. Small. Second, he decided to leave after being slandered in the village during the day. Until now, he does not regret leaving that village...
