The scenery ahead is yellow, a very strong kind of yellow. The carriage was driving on a dirt road. The temperature got higher and higher, and Ye Duohong was a little uncomfortable. He finally could not help but sat up and asked the man, "Do you think I'm sweating?" The man said,"You are sweating." Ye Duhong anxiously said,"Then why don't you sweat?"The man answered Ye Duhong calmly, "There is a place to sell medicine ahead. Buy some medicine in a while, it won't be hot after taking the medicine."
"Medicine?"Ye Duhong's eyes widened."What medicine is so good? Is it not hot after taking the medicine?"The man answered Ye Duhong and said, "The medicine is called ice pills. It will form a cold stream in the body when you take it. Even if it's hot outside, you won't feel hot."Ye Duhong was skeptical about the man's answer. With the bump of the carriage, Ye Duhong's body was sweating. About after a cup of tea, the carriage stopped, and Ye Duhong turned his tired head and looked at what was next with his tired eyes."Ah, it's a person, it's a woman."This woman was as old as the man who sold gauze. Ye Duhong asked the grandma why she didn't feel hot. The grandma shook the milky white magic bottle in her hand and said that it contained ice pills, and she would not feel hot when she ate one.
Ye Duhong believed the man at this time, and sure enough, there was an old woman, and sure enough, she was selling ice pills. Ye Duhong bought three ice pills, ate one, and stored the remaining two. When the ice pill entered the stomach from Ye Duhong's mouth, Ye Duhong immediately no longer felt the heat outside. The effect of this ice pill is really obvious. Ye Duhong is very grateful to the old woman next to him. The man said,"Don't thank the granny, thank the medicine."
Ye Duhong got on the carriage, and the man's carriage carried him all the way forward. Ye Duhong chatted with the man for a while, then drilled into the back space, where several women covered their mouths and laughed when they saw that Ye Duhong's clothes were torn and his buttocks were exposed. They are all dressed as ladies, and they all regard themselves as ladies, so they smile very carefully and ask themselves to smile without showing their teeth. Ye Duhong looked at the women and felt uncomfortable because they were laughing at him. What a shame it is to be laughed at by a woman. Ye Duhong came out of the space behind and jumped to the front. He saw the strong color in front of him again. Ye Duhong spoke to the man casually.
The carriage came to a piece of dry land. The man stopped the carriage here, and the scenery began to change here. The view in front has become white again. This is strange. Why is the front so white? The man told him that there was snow in front of him. Ye Duhong was puzzled, why is there a snow area over there? It's so hot here, and that side is adjacent to this side. How come the snow over there won't melt? The man told Ye Duhong,"The snowmelt you understand is simple secular logic, but there is a unique logic beyond the logic of lay people, which is Daya logic. This logic is elegant.Sometimes one is two, and two is one. It is obviously hot on this side, but the snow is not melting on the other side."Ye Duhong temporarily accepted this profound Daya logic and asked the man,"What's ahead?"The man understood what Ye Duhong meant, so he said,"The front is also a necessary place to go to Shadow in a Dream."
Ye Duhong is going to the Snow Country. The Snow Country is in front of him. There is only one reason why he wants to go there, that is, he can go to"Shadow in a Dream"from there. The man advised Ye Duhong not to go,"Whatever you do, don't go, because it's dangerous."Ye Duhong looks at the snow country, and the snow in the snow country is so beautiful, so how can a beautiful place be dangerous? Ye Duhong did not understand. Ye Duhong insisted on going, and the things he decided would not be easily changed.
The man finally failed to stop Ye Duhong and looked at the young man he knew in the old days from the earth country to the snow country. The man could only wish him a safe journey. The man stood for a long time, seeing that Ye Duhong had gone far, he returned in a carriage.
This snow country is cold, and Ye Duhong came here to experience it deeply. It was cold here, coupled with the fact that Ye Duhong had just taken ice pills, and now his temperature is very low. Ye Duhong was trembling all over his body. Isn't this suffering? Ye Duhong walked forward step by step, and his feet were almost frozen off. He can't ride the stone, because the temperature here is too low, sitting on the stone to fly, that has to blow what a big wind.Ye Duhong still walks honestly on the ground, walking on his feet is warm.
He didn't walk long before there were snowflakes in the sky. The snowflakes were beautiful, but Ye Duhong was so frozen that he had no intention of admiring the snow. He just walked forward step by step with difficulty. From time to time, there was a gust of wind, and a large piece of wind covered Ye Duhong. Ye Duhong's whole skeleton seemed to be blown by the wind. The wind really drilled into the cracks in people's bones. Ye Duhong thought,"the earth country is so hot, there are ice pill sellers, and the snow country is so cold, are there any hot pill sellers?"Ye Duhong doesn't know either.
He went forward again, getting colder and colder. He was afraid that he would die here. Ye Duhong finally couldn't hold it, and his body fell to the snow. Ye Duhong thought,"my father is dead, my mother is dead, and I am alone. In this world, what else is there to worry about? It is better to die in this pure place. It is better to die quietly. Let the snowflake bury me. If I die, I will not miss my mother."
Ye Duhong closed his eyes and was ready to die. However, he did not die. He was saved. It was three men who saved Ye Duhong, and they sent Ye Duhong to the igloo. Igloos, as the name suggests, are houses made of ice. Ye Duhong gradually woke up by the fire in the igloo, and opened his eyes to see three men. These three men are all dressed up as heroes, and they all treat themselves as heroes, speaking loudly and rudely. The three men competed to talk, and all asked where Ye Duhong was from, how old he was, and why he came to the Snow Country to die. Ye Duhong answered one by one.
One man said,"To survive in this snow country, you need to have the courage and dare to do it."The specific thing to do, the man also said, is to kill the fire fox. As soon as Ye Duhong heard the fire fox, his head lit up. What fire fox? Kill the fire fox? In the past, Ye Duhong visited the owner of Snow Fan. The sound of the lyre moved a fire fox, and the fire fox shed tears. So Ye Duhong has a deep impression on fire fox. This time he heard that they were going to kill the fire fox, and his heart thumped. Did they want to kill the kind of very spiritual fire fox? The man answered Ye Duhong, and said,"Is to kill the fire fox, to kill is the kind of fire fox you remember."
In the snow country, only enough fire foxes can be killed to obtain enough fire fox skins. These fire fox skins can be used for high-end clothes, so the price is high. Many heroes got fire fox skins in the snow country, and the fire fox skins laid down were sold for money, and they became rich. Only if you have money, you can be warm, because hot pills in snow country are very expensive. If you don't kill fire foxes, how can you have money? How can you buy hot pills without money? If you can't buy a hot pill, won't you freeze to death?
Ye Duhong certainly wanted to stay in the snow country, because he wanted to go to"Shadow in a Dream". However, he didn't want to kill the fire fox, he really didn't want to hurt the creatures.
The three men enlightened Ye Duhong, saying that it was a good thing to kill the fire foxes. Those fire foxes kept screaming in the snow country and made people sleepless. Ye Duhong knew that this was of course a far-fetched excuse. They just wanted to weave a reasonable word for killing the fire fox.
Ye Duhong asked what clothes the fire fox skins were used to make, and all three men said they made coats for women. It turned out that many beauty-loving women in the snow country wanted to put on fire fox fur coats to attract men. In order to meet this demand of beauty-loving women, all heroes gathered in the snow country to kill the fire fox.
