If I remember correctly, those who live in the polar regions usually sleep in ice caves?
Is it possible that I can use this method to prevent wind and snow from eroding more plants!

The sky outside was foggy, and the snow-capped mountains were also foggy and white. The cold wind blew all night, but it showed no sign of letting up.

Wen Xia stood up and tried to see if there were any signs of pedestrians in the distance. Everything seemed to be covered with a vague white gauze.

She sighed and looked at the three little ones who were looking at her. "Okay, I allow you to go out and bring back some snow. Let's make a snow wall together."

The door to the Nameless Realm is open. The later you start, the colder the air here will be.

"But be careful when you go out. I'll guard the door for you. Don't run too far."

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"Ow~"

The three little ones wagged their tails and agreed.

The space rings on their necks were cleaned and piles of snow were filled. Xiaobai had the strongest energy and quickly filled half of the space. He ran back and left a bunch of chaotic little things on the snow. footprint.

Outside the yard, four iron sheets are connected from the door of Wumingjing to the wooden door of the thatched house, forming two one-meter-wide wide channels. Each wide channel fits the width of the door of Wumingjing. As long as the wide channels are filled with Snow, made into two snow walls, can prevent the intake of cold air to a large extent.

The little Huihui used their mental power to put the snow in the space ring into the wide channel, and then piled it up about two meters high.

Wen Xia put on her only cotton-padded jacket and rubber shoes, rubbed her hands, and stepped out of the warm yard with a shovel.

She took a deep breath, banged it hard on the iron sheet, and officially started her 'infrastructure' work.

The first step is to compress it as much as possible, and the second step is to water it so that an ice layer forms on the surface of the snow.

The cold wind of wild hunting whistled, and the cold air blew in quickly, making Wen Xia's work more effective with half the effort.

Xiao Huihui also fetched water and used his mental power to pour it on the ice wall.

Wen Xia stepped on it tentatively, and it was very stable.

They were busy for a day, and two ice walls with steps embedded around them came into being, but they were only less than 20 meters high.

Wen Xia fearfully climbed up the stairs that were as steep as those on the Great Wall, reached the highest point, inserted two more than 20-meter-long logs with snow on the top wall, sprinkled water on them, and blew them down in the strong wind. Transparent ice crystals condense, and after enough time, a natural ice wall can be formed.

She carefully came to the center and put a straw rope into the hole dug in the ice, barely reaching the length of the ground.

Repeat the same trick on the other side and insert wood and rope, and the first step is completed.

"Huh..." She exhaled a breath of hot breath and ran towards the yard holding her hands that were red from the cold.

Little Huihui ran over wagging his tail, sticking out his tongue and howling.

"Are you hungry? Wait, my hands are numb. I'll cook for you right away."

Because the matter was urgent, she and Xiao Huihui only had one breakfast. After a busy day, it was already dark.

The pot was burning with boiling hot water. Wen Xia scooped it out and soaked her hands. After her joints were warmed, she started chopping vegetables and cooking.

A snowy day is perfect for a steaming braised rice.

She cut two pieces of pork belly, diced the meat and diced the sweet potatoes, and cooked them in the pot with the rice grains.Then put two farmhouse sausages inside and let the spicy fat inside soak into the thick porridge water.

In the evening, everyone including Rhubarb had a bowl of hot bacon porridge.

Wen Xia put down the bowl and had no time to rest. He led Xiao Huihui and others over the fence, pulled out a pile of grass and fed it to the chickens, ducks and geese that were huddled in the cold.

The pigs eat raw sweet potatoes, which are high in starch, and grow meat on them.Although wild boars have thick skin, they have lived in tropical rainforests before and have rarely experienced such severe cold. Two piglets have already had abnormal reactions.

The pigsty was made of wood and slate, which could isolate most of the cold air. She also made some clay mixed with mud and grass blades to fill the air leakage holes. Half of the remaining thatch was placed between the chickens, ducks and rabbits. Half of the nest was placed in a pigsty, barely used as a sleeping mat for warmth.

Fortunately, the ice wall was high enough, and the speed of the incoming cold air dropped a lot. One day later, there was no telling how many poultry would be injured.

She took the two abnormal piglets back to the backyard and let Xiao Huang watch over them. If they could be rescued, they would be returned to the pig pen.

The cubs at this time are all treasures, and if one dies, the other will be missing.

It was another early morning, and Wen Xia dared to sleep only after ensuring that there was no foolproof place.

Because I had something on my mind, I got up early the next day. When the sky was slightly bright, the first thing I did was to climb the ice wall.

Xiao Huihui, a gray wolf living in the Gobi, was extremely excited when he saw Xue. He stayed awake and followed her to help.The wood laid down last night has blown into two thick layers of ice. As long as the inside is filled with snow and watered, it can be used as a strong cold-proof wall.While the rice was cooking in the pot, she and Xiao Huihui were busy for a while. She tied the rope she got last night around her waist and climbed down carefully.

From such a high height, she felt dizzy even if she looked down. She didn't want to be thrown to death, which would be too unfair.

The next day was another busy day, and because of my proficiency in work, the final progress was greatly improved. The whole Gaoqiang could not even see the height at a glance.

It's nearly 50 meters.

The two ice walls and the transparent protective cover of the thatched house act as a shield, completely blocking the cold air below, and the temperature in the nameless territory can be perceived by the body to stabilize quickly.

Wen Xia tried to take off her cotton-padded jacket and walk behind the ice wall in a T-shirt. The further away from the ice wall, the higher the temperature became, more like autumn, and she could occasionally feel a chill.

The yard was packed with stuff and looked extremely crowded.

She temporarily moved all the plants on the shelf to the farthest position and walked around the crops she planted. Fortunately, the vines and other plants she planted were still alive, but they were growing slower.

The iron sheet above the iron shed has also been removed, and the saplings inside are still alive and growing more densely.

The biggest dilemma solved.

Only then did Wen Xia have time to observe the world carefully.

It was already the third day. In order to build the first protective wall from the entrance of Wuming Realm to the courtyard gate, she built an ice wall at the entrance, leaving a window to observe the outside, and lit a fire on the newly built earthen stove inside. Cook the meal.

During these two busy days, there was no sign of anyone walking outside.

Xiao Huihui tried to go to a farther place. There was not even a green plant here. It seemed that there was only wind and snow in the sky and frozen ice.

Yes, in the gap in the valley not far from the Nameless Realm, there is a frozen curling stone, and further inside, there is a steaming hot spring.

Xiao Huihui took a bath there, and when she came back, she turned into a furry bear wrapped in snow, which shocked her.If she wasn't trapped in the Wuming Realm, she would have wanted to go out and have a look.

pity.

Another day passed, and not even a wild beast appeared outside, as if there was really no life. In order to search for traces of creatures, Wen Xia prepared flour cakes for Xiao Huihui and Xiao Bai Xiaohuang as emergency dry food. After a few words of caution, the three of them were allowed to go out.

Amid the whine of the mountain breeze, there was the vague voice of an old man.

"It's getting dark, and the wind and snow will get heavier and heavier. Everyone, please walk faster. You can rest when you reach the cave ahead."

"Yes."

A team gradually emerged from behind the snow-covered hills. The leader was an old man wrapped in fur. The tattered coarse cloth wrapped his entire head, leaving only his wrinkled face.

Behind him were five young men in equally shabby clothes. They followed the old man silently. Each of them stooped slightly and lowered their heads slightly to prevent the cold wind from blowing snowflakes on their faces.

They felt extremely hungry, their steps became slower and slower, and their bodies bumped forward abnormally. A young man fell heavily on the snow, and the rags that were not wrapped tightly fell off, revealing a terrifying face.

It was clearly a human appearance, but the eyes were out of place on the slender face, occupying almost half of the face.The corners of his lips were chapped, and the blood flowing out of them solidified at the corners of his mouth. When he gasped hard, a bloody pus blister was revealed.

"Ahem...I hurt...I'm hungry...Grandpa..." He was too tired to cry out and could only utter weak murmurs.

The companions around him were not frightened and took the initiative to help him up. They stared at the wind and snow in front of them with their big copper bell eyes and breathed like a cow.

One person helped him wrap a towel and led him on the road while identifying the next direction.

"Wait a minute." The old man at the head stretched out his hand, closed his eyes and listened to the sounds in the wind and snow.

"Grandpa? What happened?" Could it be that someone else fell in the snow and had not yet found a warm resort?

The young man restrained his anxiety and looked into the vast white distance.

The old man's voice sounded: "...There is movement, soon... I don't know what kind of creature it is... They are coming towards us, hurry up, hide first!"

Following his order, several other young people pounced on the spot, squirming in the snow like insects, and soon fell into the thick snow, with only their faces wrapped in cloth strips exposed.

The wind and snow howled, and several fluttering shadows appeared in his sight.

The old man's breathing became weaker and weaker, and the young people also breathed softly, staring at the unknown that was getting closer and closer.

A strange head that resembled the skull of an ancient creature appeared. It was covered in gray fur, with a black mark on its nose covered with white snow, and its eyes shone brightly.

Behind it, a small figure, one yellow and one white, was hidden in the wind and snow. If it weren't for their rapid movement, few people would not be able to detect it.

The old man took a closer look and was even more surprised.

The fur of these two little creatures is thicker than the skin of the sea beast they are wearing. Their lush features fly in the air, and you can see the white smoke evaporating due to the heat.

What kind of new race is this that can actually move in the wind and snow without wearing any clothes?

The old man was horrified in his heart, and his body trembled as he watched the gray figure leading him getting closer and closer, revealing a sharp fang that looked like a sea beast.

Several other young people were quite panicked. They pinched their fingers tightly together and slowly put them into their arms...

"Ouch?" Xiao Huihui paused as he ran wildly, sniffing the smell in the air, and noticed the scent of a creature in front of him.

Xiao Huang and Xiao Bai, who were closely behind, stopped, and the three little ones walked toward the crowd in an outflanking manner.

"Woof woof woof!" Xiao Huang roared in warning, digging out a layer of snow with his limbs and feet, revealing a shallow hole.

"Ouch!" Xiao Huihui took a few steps back warily, seeming to sense the malicious intent of several people.

It rolled its eyes, took out a pancake from the space ball, put it into its mouth pretending to be holding something in the wind and snow, took a few bites, then flicked it hard, and threw the whole pancake not far away.

The young man closest to him was stunned, looking at the piece of food in front of him that exuded an inexplicable aroma, and swallowed his saliva.

"Ouch?" Seeing that no one came out, Xiao Huihui repeated his old trick, took out another piece of bread, took a few bites and threw it out.

This time it was thrown in front of the old man.

He frowned and thought for a moment, then carefully moved his hand and pinched the pancake that was close at hand. He felt a warm touch in his hand, which was soft and completely different from the hard snowfish they brought with them.

It's just that the longer the exposure, the faster the temperature drops, and the temperature dissipates quickly.

"Ouch!!" Xiao Huihui took a few steps back, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes. As long as there was something wrong with this sudden person, it would be able to escape immediately with its companions.

The old man saw the reactions of the three of them in his eyes and gained an additional understanding of the intelligence of these new creatures.

At least, much smarter than the sea beasts under the ice.

He changed to a semi-crouching position, completely exposing himself to these creatures. He carefully broke open the food he got in his hands, pinched a piece and put it into his mouth.

A peculiar aroma spread in his mouth, and with a slight bite of his strong teeth, it melted into his saliva, giving it another sweet taste.

"Delicious!" He shouted subconsciously, and the eyes of the young people who had been paying attention to him lit up, but they did not move for the time being.

The old man took another bite, looked at his hidden grandchildren, restrained himself from putting down the food in his hands, stood up tentatively, and said when they took a few steps back: "Hello, we are villagers living at the foot of the mountain. This time Going up the mountain, I want to find a resort to get a chance of survival... I don't know where you are from, if there is any offense, we can leave now."

This is an unknown thing. Xiao Huihui can understand the speech of the Blue Star people, but cannot understand the words of these indigenous people.

However, animals have a very clear sense of good and evil in people, and the three little animals present were sure that they did not receive any ill will from him.

"Ouch!" Xiao Huihui shouted decisively, and threw out an uneaten pancake to express his goodwill. He looked at the ground next to the old man and bared his teeth in warning.

Xiao Huang and Xiao Bai stamped their feet and spun around in circles.

"...I think you have no ill intentions towards us, and we should indeed be honest. Ah Wei, come out." The old man picked up the pancakes on the ground and carefully put them in his arms.

Next to them, a group of five young people jumped up in a hurry, eagerly scrambling for the noodles they picked up, and quickly put them into their mouths.They ate quickly, but they did not swallow the jujube like Zhu Bajie. Instead, they chewed it carefully and tasted the sweetness inside.
