"It's snowing?" After Angel flew out of the cave, he saw white frost dots floating in the sky.
Looking around, the earth has indeed been covered with a layer of silver makeup.
"I hate snowy days. Especially, snow without sunlight." It was the tree spirit who spoke, and he was looking up at the sky covered by thick clouds.
The figure of the tree spirit is somewhat illusory, and it is obviously not the real body.
After the Dryad finished speaking, he didn't hear Angel's response for a long time, and looked back suspiciously. But found that Angel was not listening to him, but looking at the distance.
The tree spirit followed his line of sight, but saw a row of black spots like ants on the edge of the vast snowfield, walking slowly.
They were humans, ordinary mortals. There were about two or three hundred people, everyone was wearing thick clothes, their faces were red with cold, and white ice threads appeared on their hair and eyebrows, but no one dared to stop, so they could only keep walking forward.
"Hey, I can still see the refugees from the Eternal Night Kingdom now." The tree spirit clicked his tongue twice.
"Are they refugees from the Evernight Kingdom?"
The tree spirit nodded: "Yes, you can tell by their clothing style. But I remember that the refugees from the Evernight Kingdom almost fled at the beginning of the year, why are they still there?"
"Maybe it's not the original batch of refugees." Although it was far away, Angel could clearly see that some of those refugees were covered in furs made of wild beast fur. The fur of these beasts is basically the common beasts on the Pamiji Plateau.
There are also obvious mottles on the fur, indicating that the roughest soil tanning method is used, and some trace elements in the saline-alkali land are used to remove oil and soften the leather. This takes a lot of time and requires finding the right territory.
That is to say, this group of people has at least been on the Pamiji Plateau for a long time and has a long-lived saline-alkali land.
After listening to Angel's analysis, the tree spirit also agreed: "I have indeed heard that there are a small number of refugees from the Evernight Kingdom who directly establish settlements on the Pamiji Plateau. adaptability."
This group of people may indeed be the people who survive on the plateau.
It's just that now they seem to be moving away from the old soil, because each of them is carrying a lot of salutes, even trailers with salutes, apparently on a migration.
"Why did you migrate?" Although Angel was in doubt, when he asked the question, various answers began to appear in his heart.
There are too many variables in the Pamiji Plateau, and for these ordinary mortals, any one variable will bring endless danger.
Just like some time ago, the fusion of planes caused a large number of spatial dislocations in the Pamiji Plateau. If the extraordinary is not careful, it may fall into a state of irreversibility, let alone ordinary people.
Not to mention the variables brought by the extraordinary, it is difficult to avoid just ordinary situations.
Beasts, glaciers, illnesses, etc., including a cold wind, a seemingly unharmed snow, may be the last straw that crushes this group of mortals.
So what kind of migration is it
"If you want to know, just ask." The tree spirit just suggested casually, but he didn't expect that Angel really flew to the location of the group of mortals.
However, Angel did not fall in the crowd, but came to the snow field not far behind the crowd.
A girl with frozen limbs and flushed cheeks was looking at the gray sky with absent-minded eyes, waiting for death to come.
"Is it abandoned?" A voice came into the girl's ears. She wanted to see who was talking, but her neck was frozen and she couldn't move at all.
"It shouldn't be, the fur on her body has not been peeled off. Abandonment should not be considered, perhaps, it is just the helpless choice of the human race in a desperate situation."
As the voice fell, the girl heard footsteps coming towards her, and a figure soon appeared in her field of vision.
A red-haired man.
He squatted beside her slowly, some messy red hair but not stained with any snow.
The girl's mind had already started to stiffen, and it was too late to think about why the snowflakes didn't fall on him. All her attention now is attracted by the eyes of the other party.
It was a pair of golden eyes.
This light golden color is the most beautiful color she has ever seen.
Is it a hallucination before death? or real? No matter which one it is, the girl doesn't care anymore. Anyway, she is dying, and it is not too bad to see such a beautiful look before her death.
When she thought this might be the last thought of her life, the man's slightly lazy voice sounded in her ear.
"Do you remember your name?"
…
The girl woke up from her sleep, opened her eyes, sat up and looked around.
She seemed to be puzzled by the warmth of her frozen body, but she didn't think too much, but stood up slowly and walked forward.
She is going to find her own people and tell them about the dream she had.
In a dream, someone told her that as long as she jumped into a bottomless moat, that would be her way of life!
The girl didn't know whether the dream was true or not, and she didn't want to judge whether it was true or not. The only thought in her heart now was to convey this information and tell her family.
It was not until the girl disappeared from their sight that Angel and the Dryad slowly emerged.
Dryad: "It seems that she really thought she was dreaming."
"It is a blessing to be able to have a beautiful dream in such a cruel environment."
The cruel environment mentioned by Angel is not only the heavy snow and the dangerous plateau, but also the reason for the migration of this group of people.
Live line infection.
They learned from the girl that they were originally residents of a border town in Yongye Kingdom. Because of the change in the dome of Yongye Kingdom, they came to the Pamiji Plateau and found a quiet saline land to settle down.
It is not easy to survive in the Pamiji Plateau. The settlement of nearly 1,000 people has been reduced by 200 to 300 people in half a year due to various reasons.
When they finally stabilized, they thought they could live a peaceful life. Encountered the biggest crisis, the bizarre infectious madness, that is, the outbreak of live lines.
This live line broke out too suddenly, and nearly 50% of the people were infected. Only a few hundred of them escaped and were forced to find new settlements.
On the way, the girl's limbs were frozen, and she had a severe cold and fever. As a last resort, she chose to stay where she was and quietly wait for her death.
However, what she didn't expect was that what she welcomed was not the god of death, but Angel.
Dryad: "I'll take you to the ruins first. As for the location of her previous settlement, I've already informed your mentor."
If you can save it, try to save it. If you can't save it, you have to give up. But even if you give up, you can't let this group of people stay outside. The vitality of the living thread is too strong. If it spreads beyond the Pamiji Plateau, it will be troublesome.
Angel nodded: "Let's go."
