Qimi tugged at the corner of Qixi's clothes, and looked out the window blankly.

At a certain moment, Qimi asked Qixi anxiously.

"Big brother, why hasn't mother come back?"

"Mother is looking for food, and she will be back before dark. We must stay at home honestly and not make trouble for her."

Qixi comforted Qimi, eight-year-old children are easy to coax, and twelve-year-old he knows how to comfort his sister.

After hearing Qixi's words, Qimi really felt relieved a lot.

However, Qimi didn't notice that Qixi's eyes were full of worry at this moment.

Qixi knew very well that there was no food to buy in the city, and their mother must have gone out of the city to look for food now.

Although Warcraft will stay away from big cities like Winter City, there will be incidents of people being attacked by Warcraft outside the city every year.

Qixi only hoped that her mother would not encounter it.

Qixi couldn't tell Qimi about this kind of thing. As a big brother, he couldn't help his mother, but at least he had to take good care of his younger sister, Qimi.

The sky is gradually getting dark, and for some reason, the sky today looks extraordinarily gloomy.

This gloom seemed to make Qimi extremely disturbed, she asked Qixi again.

"Big brother, it's almost dark, why hasn't mother come back?"

Qixi didn't answer, he looked at the gloomy sky, and his heart was full of worries.

Qixi suddenly squatted down and said to Qimi in front of her, "Qimi, stay at home, I'll go find my mother."

Qimi immediately shook his head, "I'm going too."

Looking at Qimi's firm eyes, Qixi hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"Okay, but we can only wait for mother at the gate of the city, and we can't go out of the gate, do you understand?"

"knew."

The brother and sister left the house holding hands and walked towards the city gate.

There were not many pedestrians on the road, and everyone looked sad.

At this time, Qimi found an old man dressed as a beggar not far away staring at her.

Qimi was a little scared looking at the shining eyes of the beggar old man, and took Laqisi's hand.

Qixi turned her head and soon discovered the existence of the beggar old man.

Seeing the old beggar staring at her and her younger sister, Qixi's face changed, and the next moment she hurriedly grabbed Qimi's hand and ran towards the crowded place.

The old beggar looked at Qimi and Qixi's retreating figures, with hesitation on his face. Seeing that the two siblings had mixed into the crowd, he turned and left unwillingly.

Qixi took a look behind her and was relieved that she didn't see the old beggar chasing after her.

Recalling the look in the eyes of the beggar old man just now, Qixi felt that the beggar seemed to want to eat them, and her mother also said that these beggars seemed to secretly take the children away. There is no return.

Qixi felt that if they hadn't been running fast just now, she and her sister might have been dragged away by the beggar old man, and then on a winter morning when there was no food...

The more Qixi thought about it, the more frightened she became, hesitating whether to go home, and finally he took Qimi's hand and walked to the gate of the city.

Seeing that the sky was going to be completely dark, the mother's figure finally appeared at the gate of the city.

Qixi heaved a sigh of relief, while Qimi had already rushed into his mother's arms.

Mother was surprised that the siblings were waiting for her here, but she didn't blame Qixi, and walked back with the siblings in a basket.

Qixi glanced at the basket, there were few wild vegetables and a lot of bark inside.

Mother had collected a lot of bark these days, and Qixi knew that these barks were not used for burning fire, but for eating.

He had seen his mother eat it, and he ate some out of curiosity. The bark was really edible, although it was not tasty, and he only ate it once, and he would not want to eat again for several days.

However, there is no way, the whole food in the family is only 200 catties of wheat.

Qixi took the basket from her mother, and under her mother's gratifying smile, the three of them walked towards home.

Seeing that the door of the house was just ahead, my mother stopped suddenly.

Qixi and Qimi seemed to have sensed something, they stopped their feet and raised their heads together with their mother.

The mother and son just raised their heads blankly, letting the snowflakes fall on them.

At the same time, Li Fan and others, who had just returned from hunting, also watched the snowflakes falling from the sky

Then I heard someone in the hunting team say something.

"It's snowing, winter is finally here..."

...

Winter in the Year of God's Punishment is no joke.

Early the next morning, Li Fan woke up from the cold in bed, and hurriedly peeled off the five layers of monster fur on his body and got up.

He first put on four or five pieces of clothes in a row, and then covered the outside with two layers of fur. Then he walked to the coal stove and lit the long-extinguished coal fire.

As the charcoal fire became brighter, the temperature in the room also slowly increased, and Li Fan, who was roasting by the fire, slowly stopped shivering.

He looked back at Gu Li Tietou and the others, and sighed that these guys are really thick-skinned, and they can still fall asleep peacefully in such a cold.

Now, Li Fan finally understands the horror of God's Year of Retribution.

It was still lukewarm yesterday, which makes people wonder whether it is cool weather with short sleeves or long sleeves.

After a night of heavy snowfall, Li Fan felt that the temperature outside the house was at least minus 50 degrees.

In less than a day, the temperature dropped by about 70 degrees. If it weren't for the insulation effect of their double-walled house and the support of charcoal fire, Li Fan felt that he would not be able to survive the whole night.

Outside the window, the heavy snow has already buried half of the house. It is estimated that their house will be completely buried under the snow tomorrow, and they don't know how cold it will be then.

"Dina and the others should be fine, but Xiaoqing won't hibernate, right?"

When Li Fan was thinking about these things, a little heat suddenly came from the heating pipe in the house.

With the coal stove, the role of the heating pipe is much smaller, but at least it can remind everyone that dinner is about to start.

And at this moment, Gu Li and Tie Tou, who were still asleep just now, opened their eyes together and quickly got up.

"It's done, it's done"

The two of them couldn't help but opened the door of the next room without wearing a few clothes. The orcs and dwarves next door were also awakened one after another. When they heard that it was time to cook, they also got up and walked towards the room of the cafeteria together. The house ran.

Li Fan looked at the speechless and shook his head, he warmed the fire for a while without haste, and then walked towards the toilet.

The canteen and the toilet are actually located in the middle of all the houses, and the two rooms are built back to back, but at Li Fan's strong request, a few more walls are deliberately separated in the middle.

Li Fan followed the door opened by the iron head and the others all the way to the toilet, which was divided into men's and women's toilets.

He first entered the men's toilet to release the water stored in his body overnight, then walked to the wash area and began to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Orcs and dwarves don't have the habit of washing every day, which is more conducive to their survival in winter.

Although Li Fan knew the reason, he still couldn't stand not washing at all.

He reminded orcs and dwarves of the damage to teeth and skin caused by not washing.

In the end, except for a few girls who love beauty, the rest of them sneered at what Li Fan said, and Li Fan was too lazy to persuade him.

After wiping his face clean, Li Fan walked towards the cafeteria next door while shouting.

"It's time to cook."
