It has been nearly half an hour since the snow has fallen. The dense snowflakes have covered the view, making it difficult to see the scenes in the distance. The road under your feet is even more covered with snow, which is difficult to identify. And every step you take is to make sure that you step firmly before you can walk, otherwise you will be at risk of slipping.

Yu Chen was not affected by these situations at all. He seemed to have been here countless times, and was extremely familiar with the environment here. At the same time, he could see that he was very excited and did not notice his obviously abnormal situation.

Xia Ren climbed over the steep slope and followed closely behind Yu Chen. Otherwise, he would be lost in this harsh environment if he was not careful.

The strong wind roared by, and they did not expect that the weather by the sea would change at any time, and it would come so rapidly.

As the sky faded, Xia Ren noticed that there were hills standing beside the road they were walking, which was the grave that I had just seen on the steep slope. The dark brown tombstone stood in the snow, like a huge, broken nail on the rotting corpse, which looked creepy.

Xia Ren realized that the fear in his heart was growing irresistible. This was obviously not a good sign. You should know that he had not seen any strange creatures and horrifying scenes with his own eyes, which made Xia Ren a little worried whether this body could support him to walk to the old god.

He suddenly began to miss the ancient dream last time. Although the environment in Wuji Ice Field was extremely harsh, Lin Xiao's rationality and pollution resistance were much higher than that of ordinary people. Even if he witnessed Xiu Ges up close, he did not fall into madness, and could quickly react and escape with his companions.

Moreover, at that time, Lanaya was around me, and the gentle woman who had only a few packs of cookies left, had to pay them all to her.

Look at it now, there is only a poor boy beside me who has cussed his daughter with this body, which is almost like a sky and a underground.

When people are in pain, they always unconsciously recall the beauty of the past, because this can relieve their mental stress.

After walking for about ten minutes, they finally stood at the entrance of the town before it was completely dark.

"Is this the hometown of your family?"

Xia Ren was gasping for breath, with an unhappy expression on his face.

The previous invitation made it possible to hold an ancient ceremony here on December 25, but they had already arrived in the town. Not to mention the ceremony and the lively crowd, they looked over and saw that apart from the snowflakes falling all over the sky, even a child had never been seen on the main roads of the town.

The surroundings are quiet and silent. The doors and windows on both sides of the road are closed tightly, so it is impossible to see if there are any living people in the house. If it weren't for the street lights that would have illuminated at some distance, Xia Ren would even think that this is an old town that has long been abandoned by people.

Yu Chen also felt a little wronged, but he had long been used to the character of his father-in-law. He was a typical stingy mouth and a slutty heart. Although his personality is sometimes a little irritable, he is generally a good person.

Yu Chen was already very grateful to his father-in-law for being able to agree to marry his baby daughter to his poor boy, so he could tolerate it even if he had a bad temper.

"Maybe it's because it's snowing, I don't want to come out. And counting on the time, it's time to eat, so it's normal to have fewer people."

Yu Chen said with a smile.

Although he himself didn't believe this explanation, because they had walked a distance on the street and there was no smoke in the chimney of the houses passing by, which meant that no one was cooking inside.

Xia Ren snorted, not caring too much about his son-in-law.

In fact, when he saw this abnormal situation in the town just now, he felt relieved, because the more abnormal it was, it means that the higher the probability of an old god here. If he was lucky enough, he might be able to successfully meet the old god tonight and then break away from the ancient dream and return to reality.

On the contrary, if everything is normal, he will have to spend a lot of time and experience to actively find clues to the old god. This is the worst case, because the longer he spends in the ancient dream, the more painful he will be when he is separated from the ancient dream.

The reason why I scolded Yu Chen just now was purely to play this role well and prevent the other party from realizing something wrong with his father-in-law.

After being spurred by his father-in-law, Yu Chen also began to get anxious and his pace couldn't help but speed up a lot.

He was also a little worried because the butler who sent the invitation before said that there would be his tribe members here, but after walking for so long, there was no one on the street. As for the warm hospitality behind, he had no hope.

If I had known that when I was in Arkham, he and his father-in-law would ask passers-by about this town, and when no one had an impression of this place, he should have been alert.

Yu Chen secretly regretted in his heart and felt that he had been deceived.

The car they rented from Arkham is still parked at that narrow intersection, and it takes at least two hours to return. The behavior of rushing in the dark for two hours in the snow and wind is tantamount to suicide, so even if you want to go back, there is no way.

Fortunately, the scene that I have been dreaming about since childhood once again brought Yu Chen a prompt.

According to his guidance, he led his father-in-law forward, walked through the circular square in the town, and then followed a stone road to a steep roof house with the unique architectural style of Xizhou.

Unlike other houses in the town, the house has lights on.

Yu Chen smiled at Xia Ren: "It's this, that's right."

Then he knocked the door knocker.

Xia Ren looked inside through the window on the wall, but the lights in the room were really dim and could not see anything clearly.

Suddenly, with a "creaking" sound, the door opened, and Xia Ren felt a chill on his spine. He had obviously not heard any footsteps just now.

Fortunately, this fear did not last long. He stood next to Yu Chen. The one who opened the door was an old man wearing a robe and slippers. To be honest, Xia Ren had only seen this kind of ancient dress in movies. Unexpectedly, there were people dressing like this in reality, and they deserved to be an ancient family.

The other party's face was neither sad nor happy, and he was calm and had no intention of welcoming them at all. This made Xia Ren wonder if they had found the wrong house.

The old man looked up and looked at Xia Ren gently. With this look, Xia Ren suddenly felt like he was stripped and rolled in the snow outside, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to be hostile, so he stretched out a hand, pointed to his throat, then shook it left and right, indicating that he was a mute.

He wrote a quaint words and sentences with his carry-on notebook and pen, and welcomed them.

Yu Chen did not realize the horror of the old man, and he nodded to the other party and expressed his gratitude.

Because I don’t know sign language, I can only do this.

Xia Ren finally broke free from the fear just now. In a trance, he saw several blurry figures flashing in the dark and deep room, and his spirit became nervous again.

He felt a little distressed.
