Under the snowstorm, the vent on the roof was covered by snow on the third day. Li Fan and the others tried to pass it several times, but each time it was covered by heavy snow at the first time. As the snow thickened, , this situation is getting worse.
It is conceivable that their house will be buried several meters deep in the snow soon, and they will also be suffocated to death.
Sure enough, the year of divine punishment is not so easy to survive.
Everyone lost their minds and could only look at Li Fan expectantly.
Li Fan took a few breaths of irritability because of this, the solution was not so easy to think of.
He stared at the house for a long time, and at one point noticed the heating pipes.
The next moment, Li Fan's eyes lit up suddenly, well, the solution is really easy to think of, he has an idea.
He hurriedly asked the dwarf to build two detachable iron pipes. The iron pipes were 15 meters long and more than ten centimeters in diameter, not too big or too small, but enough for ventilation.
Li Fan asked someone to insert the iron pipe into the snow at an angle until it was outside the snow.
After using an iron rod to break through the snow blocking the iron pipe, you can hear the sound of wind and snow outside the house.
There is an air inlet but no air outlet, and the wind at this time cannot come in yet.
Li Fan identified the direction of the wind, and then asked someone to insert another iron pipe into the snow.
Li Fan's idea is very simple, he plans to use two iron pipes to complete the ventilation.
Simply put, one iron pipe goes in the direction of the wind, and the other iron pipe goes against the direction of the wind.
The cold wind in the heavy snow is very strong.
The cold wind will send fresh air into the upwind iron pipe, and will take away the old air in the house from the downwind iron pipe to complete the air circulation.
The only problem is that in this way, the temperature in the room will drop a lot.
But in order not to be suffocated to death, Li Fan and the others didn't care so much.
At worst, let the dwarves build more coal stoves. Anyway, they have a full 40 catties of charcoal, which is enough to squander.
Chapter 106 God's Love Day
After the ventilation problem was solved, Li Fan and the others returned to their peaceful and boring days.
After going like this for almost ten days, Li Fan suddenly felt that the room was much warmer this morning.
Li Fan searched for the reason, and then discovered through the iron pipe for ventilation that the wind and snow outside had stopped.
"Didn't it mean that the winter in the Year of God's Punishment would last for 4 or 5 months? Why did it stop after only a dozen days?"
Li Fan excitedly woke everyone up.
Only later did he realize that he had made an own mistake, and the experienced Bai Qi and Qing Mu told him.
It turns out that the heavy snowfall in the winter of the Year of God's Punishment did not stop falling. The heavy snowfall would miraculously stop twice a month, and it was precisely because of these two respite opportunities that most people in the Magic Continent had the opportunity to survive. The winter of the Year of God's Wrath.
It was as if the gods could not bear to see the life in the Magic Continent completely perish, so they used their divine power to suspend the wind and snow twice a month, so people called these two days of each month God's Love Day.
"God's punishment on the one hand, and God's love on the other?"
Li Fan doesn't understand what people in this world think, but he knows very well that this opportunity should not be wasted, and he should take advantage of this God's Love Day to remove the snow outside the house.
Others apparently thought of this too.
Then the crowd gathered together.
Although the wind and snow had stopped, it was still extremely cold outside, and ordinary people couldn't bear it at all.
After testing everyone, they found that only people with strength above level 2 can go outside for a period of time after they are fully dressed.
As for Anna and Ying at level 3, as long as they take good precautions against the cold, they can stay outside for a long time.
In addition, there are dwarves above level 1. The tempered body of dwarves is more cold-resistant than ordinary people. Even some level 1 dwarves with [Extreme Cold Resistance Blessing] can live longer than level 2 orcs. Comparable to level 3 Anna and Shadow.
After knowing the bottom of his heart, Li Fan began to arrange for everyone to put on their clothes. At this moment, he didn't care about the hot eyes, so he equipped Gu Li and the others with the magic weapon of silk stockings.
As the saying goes, no matter black silk or white silk, the one that can keep warm is good silk
With the existence of stockings, Coulee's flexibility has increased significantly, and they are no longer as bloated as before and can't even run.
Seeing that the snow shoveling team had already covered their faces with warmth, Li Fan opened the door to the outside.
What catches the eye is the white snow wall.
"Moo..."
The iron-headed guy slammed into the snow wall without even thinking about it, and then struggled to make a passage leading to the ground in the snow.
Everyone then climbed out, because there was soft snow all around, they could only stand on the roof of the house.
Even on the 'God's Love Day' when the wind and snow stopped, there was still no trace of the sun in the sky, and the sky was so gloomy that it seemed that there would be another snowstorm at any time.
Li Fan looked around and saw endless white.
He glanced down the hillside again, and then he couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
Fortunately, they built their house on the hillside, and the heavy snow fell down the slope a lot during the accumulation process. Now the sinful town under the hillside has been completely flooded by snow, and the snow there is estimated to be nearly ten thousand. Mi Shen, if their house was built under the hillside, it would definitely end the same way.
But even on the hillside, the snow piled up to a depth of 5 meters, more than one meter higher than the roof of their house.
"The world is just crazy."
Li Fan really couldn't figure out how Xue could be so big.
Now it is extremely difficult for them to shovel snow.
After all, snow is soft, no matter whether it is an orc or a dwarf, as soon as they step on the snow, the whole person will sink into the snow, and there is no way to shovel the snow.
Li Fan thought for a while, and thought of an artifact, snowboarding.
The so-called snowboard is to tie a large wooden board under the soles of both sides.
The idea is to spread the weight of the body over a larger area.
Relying on snowboards, people can walk on the snow.
Tell the dwarf about the design idea, and the dwarf immediately started looking for wood to make snowshoes.
Not long after, everyone on the snowplow team equipped with a pair of snowshoes and began to shovel the surrounding snow.
Once again, the benefits of building a house on a hillside, they don't have to shovel by shovel by shovel, they just need to find a way to push the snow down the hillside.
This couldn't be easier for reckless people like Gu Li and Tietou.
The snow on the hillside disappeared at the speed of the naked eye under the joint efforts of everyone.
By 1,2 or [-] noon, everyone had cleared most of the snow.
At the same time, in the central area of the evil forest, this area that almost no one can reach is in darkness.
A pair of ice-blue eyes suddenly opened slowly in the darkness. As the eyes opened to the maximum, the owner of the eyes moved, and a majestic figure walked out of the central area little by little.
……
In Winter City, Qixi and her mother worked hard to shovel the snow, and her younger sister Qimi also wanted to help with a plank.
Because of poverty, their home was far away from the city center, so they could only be built close to the city wall.
Ironically, because of this, the city wall blocked most of the wind and snow for them, and now the snow in their house is less than 3 meters high.
Qixi tried his best to push the snow in front of him to the street outside, but there was also snow on the street, so his efforts had no effect.
Qixi frowned. According to the situation in previous years, there would always be city guards led by knights to clear the snow from the streets at this time. However, in this year of God's Retribution, neither knights nor city guards showed up.
Residents in the city have no choice but to appeal to everyone to remove the snow from the streets to the outside of the city in order to clear the snow.
It's a pity that everyone can't even deal with the snow around their own houses, so there is no time to clear the snow on the street.
Under the vicious cycle, the already tough winter seems to be getting more difficult.
Because of this, Qixi looked at the mother next to her worriedly.
My mother has lost weight recently, and the reason is very simple.
In order to save food, his mother let him and Qimi eat wheat porridge, but she often ate bark to eat.
The bark is difficult to digest, and mothers often skip second meals throughout the day.
Qixi knew very well that it was impossible to go on like this, but the kind mother in the past seemed extremely stubborn at this moment.
When did this stubbornness appear?
Maybe it has existed since the day my father had an accident a few years ago, but it was only exposed today.
Qixi didn't know what to do, so she could only look in the direction of the center of Winter City with a sad face.
There, there is a splendid stone castle.
It was Caton, the lord of the castle, who lived in the castle.
Qixi didn't understand, what is the city owner doing?
Why not send knights and city guards to help clear the snow during this difficult time.
Is there anything more important than the lives of residents?
Chapter 107 Firestone
"My lord, do you really care about the snow on the street? If the snow is not cleared today, the snow will fall again soon, and most of the houses of the residents in the city will be completely buried. I am afraid that the next God's Love Day will come. A large number of residents would have been frozen to death before."
Facing the question from the great knight Wood, Caton didn't show the slightest expression on his face.
Carton played with a red stone in his hand, and asked Wood: "Knight Wood, do you know what this is in my hand?"
Wood glanced at the red stone in Carton's hand. It was obviously not an ordinary stone. The space around the stone was constantly twisting, as if being burned by an invisible flame.
In fact, there was indeed a hot breath emanating from the stone.
Only then did Wood realize that the room he was in was extremely warm, and it was only because of his level 4 strength that he didn't feel it clearly so he didn't notice it at the first time.
Wood realized it instantly and exclaimed.
"This is Flint, and the imperial capital is willing to send this precious stone to Winter City?"
Carton looked at the flint in his hand, and said calmly: "Nothing is impossible, the Great Knight of Wood. As early as the day when the heavy snow fell, I had already arranged some flints in the entire Winter City, so the temperature in the Winter City It’s much higher than outside, and under such circumstances, as long as it’s God’s Love Day, the residents in the city can go out to clear the snow, and the probability of their survival is already very high, at least much higher than the people in other cities.”
As Carton spoke, a ruthlessness suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he continued, "Even if there were no flints, I wouldn't use the knights and city guards on such trivial matters as clearing the snow."
"Why? Clearing the snow is no small matter. If you are not careful, more than half of the civilians in the city may not survive this winter." Wood's eyes widened and he looked at Caton with dissatisfaction, and his fists were clenched unconsciously. up.
Caton didn't feel unhappy because of Wood's rudeness, but said coldly: "Because there are more important things than protecting civilians, Knight Wood, you may not know if you haven't experienced the Year of God's Retribution, except for the terrible blizzard In addition, the Year of God's Retribution will also cause a strange phenomenon, a phenomenon that only occurs in towns near the Sin Forest and the Warcraft Mountains."
"What... phenomenon?"
"Beast Tide"
"Didn't all the monsters fall into hibernation in the winter of the Year of God's Punishment?"
"That's why it's a strange phenomenon. In the winter of the Year of God's Punishment, most of the monsters will indeed hibernate, but that's only the majority. There are still some monsters that can still move, such as ice-type monsters and monsters with Extremely cold-resistant monsters, these two kinds of monsters can even move in the snowstorm of the Year of God's Retribution. When they can't get food in the snowstorm, they will trigger a wave of beasts and attack the surrounding towns. The biggest task of the knights and city guards is to guard against these monsters."
Speaking of which, Carton stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the city streets outside the castle, staring at the residents who were desperately clearing the snow.
"If we don't clear the snow, many residents may lose their lives, but if we don't survive the beast tide, then everyone in the entire Winter City will lose their lives."
After hearing this, Wood was silent for a moment, and finally said hesitantly: "But isn't the beast horde coming yet? At this time, we can go and clear the snow first."
Carton glanced at Wood, with a flash of disdain in his eyes, but as Wood was the only great knight under his command, Carton could only patiently explain.
"Whether the beast tide will appear? When will it appear? No one knows. The only certainty is that from the first God's Love Day, the beast tide may occur every day, so we must be vigilant all the time. Can you waste the power of knights and city guards for some civilians?"
After hearing this, Wood was speechless, as if he was the last one insisting, he said: "Many people will die in this way, they don't have much food, and now we have to clear the snow, even if we block the beast tide, in the end There won't be many living people left in Winter City!"
population?Just a bunch of data.
Carton knew Wood's temper, so he didn't say this.
In fact, the population of Winter City is really just a number to him. What he is most afraid of is underpopulation, or what the human race is most afraid of is underpopulation.
Orcs are known for their powerful strength, they are natural fighters, [Beast Transformation], [Blood Warfare: Blood and Life], [Quick Recovery]... Almost all of their racial talents exist for fighting.
Elves are famous for their spiritual power, they can use magic, and everything in their race is in line with nature. Although they have developed an arrogant and untouchable temperament because of this, they have gained longevity in nature. As long as they live long, they will naturally Produce strong, this is why the elves are powerful.
Dwarves are famous for their physical fitness. They have their own blessings after tempering their bodies. Their racial talents are all focused on resistance, and they are the most tenacious of all races.
And our human race is famous for its agility. Apart from fighting skills, what is our racial talent? Yes, it is rapid growth and reproduction.
Rapid growth and reproduction, our human race has the most newborns of all races, and it is also one of the fastest growing races, so what if some people die
