[The escaping midsummer brings the cool autumn as it disappears into the night sky]
[The fallen autumn leaves welcome the cold winter with the long cries of migratory birds]
[Wu Yingxue asks you how to fold paper flowers]
You agreed.
[You teach her very carefully, letting the girl follow you step by step. She is very serious, folding the paper between her fingers.]
[What you hold between your fingertips is not just paper, but also unforgettable memories]
[Folded up with it is also the sad past]
[After this night, the girl still couldn't learn how to fold paper flowers, and could only barely make a "flower bud"]
[Even with your instruction, my bare hands that danced with the spear with such ferocity will inevitably become clumsy the moment they touch the paper.]
[The girl is not depressed. All her sorrows and worries have been turned over with the folding of the paper. She has once again become the free and easy look you are familiar with.]
【"Go to bed now."】
[In the early morning when the sun rises, you order the girl to go back to her room and sleep with a serious face]
[The girl obediently agreed and took away the paper flower you folded, which she particularly liked]
…
【Three Days Later】
The air at the border becomes even colder.
[Aniu's Qi and blood tend to be stable. Every minute and every second, he is consuming the spirit and Qi in his body, stimulating the energy hidden in the dark.]
[His complexion looks much rosier and his strength is much greater]
[Now, Ah Niu is no longer as weak as before. He looks quite energetic and can carry a hoe and work all day without feeling tired.]
[The people of Qingniu Town were attracted by this magical effect]
[Many people started practicing the Fool's Skill]
[Except for the elderly who are too weak and the children who are still very young, almost everyone in Qingniu Town has learned this magical skill that can make them stronger]
【When the power of Qi and blood surges in your body, feel the new life that is coming to you】
[Someone kneels on the ground and cries loudly]
[Very sad, but also very happy]
[What kind of emotion is that? You look at the people crying with joy and think to yourself, it is probably the joy of discovering that you are also a "human"]
…
[A martial art that even a fool can practice, equally ignoring qualifications and aptitude]
[Be it a farmer or a mule, even a dung picker]
【All can practice equally】
[Qi and blood surged in the blocked veins, breaking down the humbleness of the people of Qingniu Town, breaking down the bottleneck of insufficient stamina and understanding, and bringing them real power]
[People thank you, with a desire to be born in their eyes]
[In order to prepare for the winter demon tide, you frequently explored the Shiwan Mountains. In the process, you killed many demons that were weaker than you.]
[The people of Qingniu Town, with great effort, carried the edible demon flesh and blood one after another, preparing to cook it into reserve food]
[If we cannot withstand the impact of the demon tide this winter]
[These reserve rations made from demon meat will be your only food after you leave Qingniu Town]
…
Winter is coming.
The end of autumn is so sudden.
In an instant, snowflakes fell from the sky like countless pure white butterflies, gently pressing down on everything in the world, covering it with a layer of silver.
For the people of Qingniu Town, for all human beings struggling on the border.
Winter is associated with hell.
The biting cold wind will blow away the little warmth that people have, and demons will emerge from the wind and snow and ruthlessly take people's lives.
In such a hell, there was even a tragedy where the snow was dyed red with human blood.
"This day has finally come."
The wind was howling.
Xu Xi walked out of the yard slowly, raised his head slightly, watched the cold snowflakes falling from the sky, and stretched out his palm to catch one or two.
The hands where qi and blood flow feel warm.
Snowflakes fell on the palm of my hand and quickly melted into water droplets.
As the palm tilted, the drop of water slid to the ground and was frozen into ice by the low temperature environment.
"It's really cold today..." Xu Xi said to himself. This is also one of the cruelties of winter, but if you are prepared, you can still survive it.
Relatively low temperature.
The bloodthirsty demons are the real threat.
"Sir, will we win?" the girl in red and white asked beside Xu Xi, holding a spear.
"Probably he will die..." Xu Xi did not express any false hope, but expressed the dead silence of this winter in a calm tone.
"But we have no choice."
"Everyone in Qingniu Town has no choice."
Xu Xi stepped out, his innate qi turned virtual into real, and he slashed at the sky in the wind and snow from a distance.
The wind stopped and the snow stopped.
The demon dies.
"Woo--!!" A red-feathered falcon monster with a ferocious look on its face swooped down towards Qingniu Town at high speed, but was killed by Xu Xi from a distance.
Its death means the winter demon wave has officially arrived.
The people of Qingniu Town were afraid.
The people of Qingniu Town trembled.
But he still followed Xu Xi, using his insignificant energy and blood to try his best to resist the attack of the demon.
"I'm not a coward!!!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Bleeding is inevitable, injuries are inevitable.
The fight between humans and demons is full of danger.
Fortunately, Xu Xi was stationed on the battlefield and could provide remote support with his innate energy. Wu Yingxue, who was at the fifth level of physical training, could roam around the battlefield and help those who were exhausted.
Kill!
Someone roared, his arm bitten off by the demon, but he still swung with his other hand.
Kill!
Some people are afraid, obviously extremely afraid, but when they think of their wives and children in the town behind them, their fear turns into fearlessness, which becomes nourishment for the practice of the Fool's Kung Fu, gushing out roaring qi and blood.
[Winter is coming, and the demon tide is coming too]
[You led the people of Qingniu Town to prepare various defensive measures early on, even though those were just minor obstacles that were dispensable to the demons.]
[The effect of the Fool's Skill is far beyond your expectations]
[Good, very good, very good]
[In the face of life-and-death crises, many people burst out with powerful strength. Although it only lasts for a moment, it still affects the changes in the battle situation.]
[You were able to focus your mind and fight with all your might against a demon of the same level. In the end, you succeeded in killing it. It was a ferocious beast as fierce as a tiger or a leopard.]
【You feel a little relaxed】
[If the subsequent waves of demons are only of this difficulty, you can guarantee the safety of Qingniu Town without any worries.]
[But suddenly, after the first wave of demons ended, when people were celebrating their victory, you felt a great threat coming from afar.]
"Run, run!"
There was no time to identify or explain anything.
Xu Xi's pupils shrank and he turned around and shouted to everyone.
"Brother Xu?"
"A brother?"
The people of Qingniu Town were very confused.
But seeing that Xu Xi looked anxious, they reacted quickly and hurried back to the town.
Bring your family, food and water, and the few clothes you have.
finally.
Under the leadership of Xu Xi, they left Qingniu Town at the fastest speed in their lives, running for their lives in the face of the wind and snow.
When people are so tired that they have to take a break.
Behind them, in the direction of Qingniu Town, flames suddenly rose into the sky.
“Screech!”
“Screech!”
The flames burned fiercely and the smoke rolled in the air. The two forcefully tore through the impact of the wind and snow, burning the sky red with heat.
Xu Xi saw it.
Countless fire crows were circling in the sky above Qingniu Town.
It is large in size, has a fierce appearance, and produces sparks when it flaps its wings.
Each one is no weaker than a warrior at the Blood Exchange Realm.
The gathering flames devoured everything recklessly, burning down people's familiar homes in their desperate gazes.
