Chapter 390: Eternal Night, Extreme Cold, Strong Wind and Snowstorm

Everyone looked up and saw that the red sun in the sky seemed to be dragged by something and fell rapidly.

The sky suddenly darkened, and then a strong wind blew.

Kong Xiangdong's expression changed drastically, "Not good, this is going to enter the polar night in advance, hurry up!"

In fact, there was no need for him to remind them, Yang Zhan and others turned around and ran back.

Because everyone knew what this meant.

After entering the polar night, the temperature will drop sharply and will soon reach a point where ordinary creatures can hardly survive.

By then, let alone ordinary people, even if you are a martial arts master, you will be buried in this white desert.

But according to calculations, it should be several days before entering the polar night!

Everyone's heart was full of doubts.

But at this time, there was no time to care about so much, escaping was important, so people rushed to the town.

Zhao Ya was not too anxious.

He followed the crowd slowly, looking back at the Wuwang Sea that was trapped in the darkness from time to time, with a glimmer in his eyes.

Although this trip to Wuwang Sea was fruitful, it also added countless questions.

These question marks mixed together, making this sea area shrouded in fog all year round seem extremely mysterious.

Especially the last rising fog, Zhao Ya had a sense of foreboding in his heart.

Soon, people rushed back to the town.

The town was also in chaos.

Everyone ran around with fear on their faces, as if the end of the world had come.

When Zhao Ya and Kong Xiangdong returned to the brothel, they saw that the people here were already packing up the luggage and the convoy in an orderly manner under the command of Jing Rou.

When seeing Zhao Ya, Jing Rou nodded, and the meaning was needless to say, I already knew it.

Zhao Ya also knew that this was not the time to speak, so he turned around and helped to organize the team.

Although there were many people in the brothel, there were many women among them.

But those who could come to this northern snowfield to make a living were not ordinary people.

Not to mention anything else, the composure of these women alone was far beyond that of ordinary men.

In addition, people who often go out always have their luggage ready.

So soon, everyone prepared everything.

Kong Xiangdong waved his hand, and the team set off immediately and ran to the south.

It was already dark at this time, and because of the heavy snow, not even a little starlight could be seen.

Only the endless snowfield reflected the dim white light, and when it was projected on people's faces, it gave people a strong sense of unreality.

It was like being in a dream.

As soon as they left the town, the howling wind came towards them, and the temperature dropped to an unimaginable level in an instant.

At the same time, the tavern owner Yang Zhan and other people in the town also led the team to catch up.

There was no greeting or greeting, even if there were conflicts between them at ordinary times, they could not care about it at this time.

People gathered into a team very tacitly.

After all, in this extreme cold, one more person means one more hope of life.

The team moved forward, but after more than a hundred steps, the town behind them disappeared.

There was almost nothing to see except the blizzard.

Even with thick towels wrapped around their mouths and noses, the hot air they exhaled was quickly frozen into ice.

No one spoke, and everyone lowered their heads to hurry on.

At this time, any extra movement meant unnecessary heat consumption.

This was fatal in the extreme cold.

Among the team, only Zhao Ya dared to ignore these rules.

He looked up and saw that the increasingly strong wind and snow had completely blocked the road ahead.

The dark sky was like a pot lid on the top of the head, making people feel depressed.

The key is that in this situation, people have no way to tell the direction.

And once you lose your way, it means death.

Zhao Ya quickly came to the front of the team and saw Kong Xiangdong looking down at something.

Zhao Ya came forward and saw that it was a simplified version of a compass.

But at this time, the compass needle was shaking constantly, and it was impossible to tell where it was pointing.

Kong Xiangdong's face was pale, and red light gradually appeared in his eyes, which was a sign of losing control.

Fortunately, Zhao Ya arrived in time and immediately shouted: "Don't worry, I can find a way out."

After hearing Zhao Ya's words, Kong Xiangdong's emotions gradually stabilized, and then he looked back at him.

Although he didn't know how Zhao Ya could tell the direction in this environment, after this period of contact, Kong Xiangdong knew Zhao Ya's strength, so he believed his words without a doubt.

Zhao Ya was actually a little unsure.

If he was alone, the worst thing would be to find a place to hide and wait for the blizzard to pass before continuing.

Anyway, he was not afraid of the cold, it was just a matter of leaving early or late.

But it couldn't be done now.

First of all, there was Jing Rou.

Although the eldest brother of the Thunder and Fire Department of the Mechanical Sect was quite powerful, he was still unable to fight against this severe cold for a long time.

So even for Jing Rou, he had to leave this area as soon as possible.

Zhao Ya whistled at the sky, and then waited quietly.

At this time, everyone knew what happened.

The guide tool that Kong Xiangdong carried with him was ineffective.

And it was not just him, but also the guide tools used by Yang Zhan and several other sea-hunting teams.

And in this kind of weather, everyone knew what it meant to get lost.

But at this moment, even if you want to cry, you can't do it.

The extreme cold even froze the tears.

Everyone just gathered together in silence, quietly waiting for the judgment of fate.

Zhao Ya whistled to the sky again.

And in order to make the sound go farther, he also used his true strength.

The sharp whistle broke through the barrier of wind and snow and echoed in the wild.

A moment later, a cry was heard in the sky, and then the leader of the white-eating bird appeared in the blizzard.

When they saw this huge body, the team was in turmoil.

The eyes of many people who had been extinguished rekindled hope at this time.

Zhao Ya also laughed and reached out to pat the giant bird that landed beside him.

"Go to the front and lead the way!"

The leader of the white-eating bird did not hesitate.

Even if such a violent snowstorm caused great pressure on it, since Zhao Ya gave the order, it would execute it unconditionally.

The huge body flew up with difficulty, then circled in the air and flew down in one direction.

"Follow up!"

In fact, Zhao Ya didn't need to say anything, everyone followed up tacitly.

At this time, the snow on the ground had already reached above the knees, and every step was very difficult.

But even the weakest woman was gritting her teeth and persisting, not daring to fall behind.

Because once she fell behind, it would mean death.

The sweat soaked the inside of the cotton-padded jacket, and then formed a thin layer of ice shell on the outside.

The huge physical consumption made many people's bodies begin to tremble.

But the road under their feet seemed to be endless.

Finally, some people began to be unable to hold on.

A woman was walking, and she felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and then she was about to fall.

At this moment, a hand supported her shoulder.

"Can you still hold on?" Zhao Ya whispered.

The woman's face was pale, with gratitude in her eyes, and she kept nodding, which meant that she could hold on.

You know, at this time, if you can't even save yourself, who will have the energy to help others?

So even if Zhao Ya just gently helped her, the woman was still grateful.

Zhao Ya sighed in his heart, knowing that the woman was actually lying.

She was afraid that if she said she couldn't hold on, people would abandon her.

And it's not just her, many people in the team are already on the verge of physical limits.

Zhao Ya quickly came to the front of the team, opened the luggage of Yang Zhan's team directly, and took out the wine jar inside.

Fortunately, Yang Zhan's tavern sells high-proof liquor, otherwise, with the current low temperature, the slightly lower-proof liquor would be frozen directly.

Zhao Ya handed the wine jar to people one by one.

People couldn't wait to open the bottle corks, gulped down a few mouthfuls, and then handed it to the next person.

The strong liquor was like fire, and it quickly dispelled the coldness on the body after entering the stomach.

People's faces finally showed a touch of blood.

Not only that, Zhao Ya also took out a whole jar of good wine, flew up, and after a few leaps, flew directly to the giant bird in the air.

He opened the lid of the wine jar and poured it directly into the giant bird.

Because even the native white-eating bird was shivering in the bad weather at this time.

After all, under normal circumstances, it would stay in the warm nest in such weather, who would run outside.

However, after drinking this jar of wine, the giant bird burped very happily, and the previous shrinking state was swept away, and even the flying posture became much more stable.

Zhao Ya then flew to the ground, and then kept patrolling in front and behind the team to prevent anyone from falling behind.

In fact, this matter has nothing to do with Zhao Ya.

But Zhao Ya has a principle in doing things.

That is, within the scope of one's ability and without hindering oneself, if you can lend a helping hand, you should lend a helping hand.

This is not a saint, but just a belief in my heart.

After all, Zhao Ya was able to grow up step by step from a poor boy in a small town, and he also received help from many people.

For example, if it weren't for the shelter of the chief escort Meng Lei, Zhao Ya would not have been able to step into the road of martial arts so smoothly.

And the people in the team were also grateful for Zhao Ya's help.

Even if Zhao Ya sometimes just supported them.

But in such an extremely harsh environment, any help is precious.

And just as everyone was struggling to trek, Zhao Ya suddenly felt that there seemed to be something in the wind and snow behind him.

He immediately turned around and looked, but he found nothing after looking for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Kong Xiangdong also noticed Zhao Ya's abnormality and immediately gestured to ask.

Zhao Ya shook his head and didn't say it clearly.

Although he was sure that it was not an illusion just now.

But don't say it again at this time to make trouble.

In that case, it will not have any effect except adding pressure to people.

Kong Xiangdong also saw what Zhao Ya meant, so he turned around and left without saying anything.

At this moment, the only thing he could do was not to cause trouble for Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya retreated to the end of the team without making a sound.

At this time, his perception ability was greatly weakened because of the blizzard.

But Zhao Ya discovered a strange phenomenon.

That is, as long as he concentrates on thinking about something, the processing speed of his brain will jump to a higher level.

Not only can it block distracting thoughts, but also the agility of thinking and associative ability are far beyond normal.

This feeling is like the brain is overclocked.

Zhao Ya speculated that this should be the effect of brain unlocking.

And this ability is just in use at this time.

Zhao Ya slowly inhaled a breath, then blocked all distracting thoughts and began to expand his perception range.

The wind and snow were like countless noises, interfering with Zhao Ya's perception.

But at this time, the overclocked brain showed a strong processing ability.

These noises were quickly blocked and filtered out...

Soon, Zhao Ya's perception ability adapted to the surrounding environment.

Finally.

He caught something strange again.

Obviously, this breath is definitely not human, and it is very familiar!

It's a human-faced bear!

Zhao Ya reacted immediately.

And there is more than one, at least a group of human-faced bears.

This discovery made Zhao Ya's expression become solemn.

Of course, he is not afraid of this strange beast.

But at this moment, in this environment, if this group of human-faced bears attack again, then all the fleeing people will probably die.

Zhao Ya quietly tightened the hilt of the knife at his waist and prepared for the battle.

This blizzard also made it impossible for Zhao Ya to use many of his methods.

Especially the poison method, which was greatly restricted.

After all, in such a strong wind, if you release the poison powder, it will be blown away immediately.

Otherwise, it is just right to use this group of human-faced bears to test the newly developed poison powder.

But Zhao Ya waited for a while, but found that these human-faced bears did not seem to have the intention of attacking, but followed behind honestly.

Not only that, as the brain filtered the surrounding environmental noise, Zhao Ya also found several other strange beasts.

For example, the group of snow wolves following the human-faced bears.

It’s just that these strange beasts that usually fight to the death when they meet, at this time, all tacitly did not attack each other, but walked silently.

Zhao Ya suddenly realized.

It turned out that these strange beasts followed not to attack by surprise, but to borrow the road.

After all, with his group of people leading the way, they would be much easier to walk.

After realizing this, Zhao Ya relaxed a lot.

Although he was still vigilant, at least for the time being, the danger was temporarily lifted.

He quickly came to the front of the team and made a gesture to Kong Xiangdong that everything was fine.

Kong Xiangdong's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

In this way, people trudged hard, and drank some wine to warm themselves up when they were tired.

I don't know how long it has been.

People have become sluggish and numb, and even feel that this blizzard will never stop.

Suddenly.

As if a giant hand pressed the pause button, the whistling cold wind disappeared.

The snowflakes in the sky disappeared with it.

The starlight shone down and projected into everyone's eyes.
