Chapter 263 The first snow in winter
The sky gradually darkened, and the howling cold wind became stronger and stronger, like a sharp sword raging over the wilderness, causing the dark clouds to press down on the ground even more heavily.

If it was said that the sky was only dark before, like after dusk and before dawn, then now it has completely turned into the purest night between the two, and the snow has begun to fall.

At the beginning, it was just a little bit of crystal falling, but now the sky is full of snowflakes like goose feathers, just like that, one by one, falling from the sky.With a slight chill, it fell on the mountain, on the ground, and on the field.

The field gradually became white and flat, because it was covered with layers of snow, making the whole land covered with a layer of silver-white coat.In a short while, the snowflakes have been falling continuously with the momentum of rolling all over the sky, as if to connect the vast land with the boundless sky.

As the wind and snow swirled, the violent storm began to howl crazily, howling mournfully.

However, there was a strange sound that sounded vaguely, even if it was mixed in the blizzard that announced the direct entry into severe winter, it was so obvious——

"Kaz in the sky doesn't talk, Brother Dao in the river misses his mother... Majiete thinks of Dio's dripping words, ACDC's tears, the boss hangs up..."

Humming a strange tune, Mu Xiu covered his forehead with one hand, and walked forward step by step against the violent wind and snow, and the speed was not slow.

He only felt that the ground under his feet gradually became like a thick layer of carpet, and there was a "creaking" sound when he stepped on it, and a series of deep footprints would be left behind after walking.

This feeling is particularly interesting. If he hadn't experienced it in the main world, he would probably get lost in this silver-white world right now.

Because it was an indescribably wonderful feeling, which made him very happy, and he liked it so much.But as for why he likes the snow scene so much, even he himself can't explain it clearly, after all, there is no reason for emotional things.

It's just a heartfelt emotion—

I don't have any special thoughts or purposes, just lamenting the lonely atmosphere, liking the quiet beauty, and having a vague premonition: sooner or later, I will be in this quiet snowy day. , Meet the most important person in yourself.

hmmmmmm…

But if it is this kind of snowstorm, forget it. Although I like it very much as long as it is snowy, it is too beautiful to speak of.

Looking up at the sky full of clouds, Mu Xiu sighed, but he didn't stop.

Although the snowflakes are getting denser and denser, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the whole world is completely white in all directions. The average person can't see anything clearly a few meters away, and they will turn into a snowman after a while on the road.

However, Mu Xiu has maintained an unimaginably accurate sense of direction from just now until now, advancing straight in the snow.

And even though he had been blown head-on by the gust of wind, his hair fluttered and his clothes bulged, but there wasn't a single snowflake on his body that could get on it.It was as if there was a strange force swimming through his body, even if a snowflake was falling, he could accurately sense it, and directly shake it away with just the right amount of force.

A feather cannot be added, and flies cannot fall.

This ability to grasp every ounce of strength in detail is a realm that ordinary people can't achieve in their entire lives. Only a very small number of martial arts masters can master similar top martial arts skills after decades of hard work and actual combat.

For example, a master who has practiced the essence of real spear skills is said to be able to make a big Liuhe spear that is more than ten feet long and weighs more than eight catties, directly pick up flies on the window paper without breaking the window paper.

However, for Mu Xiu, such skills as unloading, deflecting, exerting force, etc., are basically automatically upgraded to the peak level like instinct, and he is self-taught, and has been passively triggered.

If you feel it, you must post it, and if you post it, you must hit it!
But to be honest, at the beginning, he was actually a little worried about such an instinctive passive ability. After all, if someone didn't pay attention, as long as someone patted his shoulder, then Mu Xiu might counterattack in the next moment. , you can beat people into meat sauce...

It was only later that he discovered that this ability was matched with his own almost metaphysical perception. If someone approached him, he would definitely feel it, and he would subconsciously distinguish between friend and foe.

Besides, if he could really approach him quietly, then the opponent's strength would certainly not be that bad, even if it was a counterattack, it wouldn't be a problem.That's why Mu Xiu was relieved, and he didn't deliberately suppress this instinct any more.

"The snow is so heavy, how should people live in this age..."

The boy muttered, confirmed his direction again and continued to move forward. Although the front was also pitch black, his eyesight was strong enough and sharp enough to see the outline of a village at the foot of the mountain in the distance.After walking for half an hour in the blizzard, he finally saw a place where there were people.

The bone-piercing cold of the snowy day had no effect on him, or it should be said that the general cold and hot environment could no longer affect his ability to move.

But at this moment, Mu Xiu suddenly stopped moving forward, and kicked his legs hard the next moment!
There was only a muffled sound of "bang", and a huge pit appeared on the ground, accompanied by a strange scream that disappeared in the snowstorm in an instant!A stream of black blood mixed with some disgusting tissue fluid shot out from the crack, and the ground churned for a while, but slowly there was no movement.

Mu Xiu's face changed slightly when he fell more than thirty meters away. Although he sensed the enemy's situation, he immediately took the initiative to kill some inexplicable monster underground, but the situation did not improve in the slightest.

Or it got worse——

Almost at the same time that the stinky smell of blood had just dissipated and merged into the air, he sensed several strange auras coming quickly from all directions.

Is this era really so dangerous? The density of demons, ghosts, ghosts, etc. is too high!

Exhaling a long breath of cold air, Mu Xiu quickly glanced around, then turned around and continued walking forward.On the way, two pistols appeared in his hand, one was a Gauss pistol with infinite ammunition with a sci-fi look, and the other was his favorite M500 revolver.

The former is infinite ammunition, does not need to be reloaded, and the electromagnetic force field generated can accelerate the bullet to an astonishing speed and launch it, and penetrate almost any obstacle. The range, accuracy and stopping force are all perfect.

The disadvantage is that because it is an unlimited ammunition version, in order to prevent technology leaks, the package of "Lord God" is too complete.

It will only generate a pulsed high-strength electromagnetic field at the moment of launch, and Mu Xiu can only use the electromagnetic force to correct and accelerate again at the moment the bullet exits the chamber.

In addition, other means of targeted strengthening of attack power are difficult to have an effect on the "ammunition" inside a firearm with unlimited ammunition.

The M500 revolver has only five rounds of ammunition, but it is powerful enough to kill an African elephant with one shot.Coupled with the fact that the recoil is too strong, it is jokingly said that unless the biochemical crisis breaks out, or goes to space to hunt aliens, it is useless.

But the advantage is that Mu Xiu can not only use electromagnetic force to accelerate the trajectory of the warhead, and even shoot it directly as a super electromagnetic gun, but also use armed domineering to directly entangle the bullets in the gun to strengthen the attack power——

In Takashimaya Times Square before, he killed a Class A evil spirit with one shot.

That's perfectly sufficient.

That's right, he just restrained his breath along the way because he thought it was troublesome. It didn't mean that these miscellaneous soldiers were really qualified to make trouble for him.Not to mention how many, even if there are hundreds or thousands, it is not enough for him to kill casually, so there is no need to be serious.

Therefore, there is no need to change the route, and there is no need to formulate any tactics, just go all the way and deal with the incoming things by the way.

Anyway, it's more or less a matter of gently pulling the trigger and sending a bullet.

……

……

In the distance, the village at the foot of the mountain.

The sky was so dark that nothing could be seen, only snowflakes falling from the sky one after another, looking around, the whole world was shrouded in a vast expanse of whiteness.

A dozen or so villagers in simple clothes, which could even be called shabby, held torches, shivering in the cold wind, and could only shrink back as much as possible to shelter from the wind.They just stood under the big tree at the entrance of the village, looking worriedly at the onmyoji who was leading the horse in front of them, admonishing each other one by one.

"Master Onmyoji, don't go at this time, it's too dark and too dangerous..."

"Yeah, anyway, there is nothing wrong with the enchantment, if there is any danger, just raise it up..."

"..."

The onmyoji led the only skinny horse in the village, turned his head and sighed, and said in a helpless tone: "Everyone! Just thinking about escaping is not enough. Now that winter is coming, I don't have enough spiritual power." The enchantment that has been supporting the village can only be opened when necessary..."

"—I don't know if the movement around the village is a monster or a ghost. I have to go and see it. Be careful before I come back. If there are wild beasts coming, use a torch to drive them away. Don't feel sorry for firewood. People who don't have fire I can't survive the winter!"

After some instructions, the Onmyoji no longer hesitated, got on his horse and rushed out. Soon his figure became smaller, and gradually this black spot disappeared into the whiteness at the end of the snowy field in the distance.

"..."

"..."

The villagers who couldn't stop each other looked at each other in blank dismay, and were in no mood to speak.

Just like the ancient people in other worlds would not be surprised by the wild beasts everywhere, and for example, no primitive people would use simple stone tools instead of advanced alloy craft products. Think it's unreasonable to do that.

These villagers who belong to this era and this world also take the existence of demons and monsters on this land for granted, just like there must be a sun in the sky, and there must be mountains and rivers on the ground, so there is nothing surprising.

After all, inhuman things have existed since ancient times, and some even appeared earlier than humans.

But this does not prevent them from feeling that life is difficult-wars, taxes, wild thieves, beasts, natural disasters, plagues, aliens... are all things that kill people in this era, unless it is those big towns and cities, they will be relatively It is much safer, and as long as an ordinary village exists, there will basically be an onmyoji or witch.

Generally speaking, they have not only mastered some spells that can deal with ordinary monsters, but also mastered some simple pharmacological knowledge, so the village can exist.It can be said that in this era, an onmyoji or witch is the real person in charge of a village.

Seeing the "lifeblood" of the village walk into the snow alone, and the harsh winter has just begun, naturally any villager would feel uneasy.

And their premonition was indeed correct. After half an hour, the Onmyoji didn't come back.
