Chapter 90 1 years in a hurry

There was no need to guess where they were going. After all, they were still children. Even Leng Yuzhao, the usually taciturn maid, could not resist the temptation of curiosity.

Arriving at the orchard, Liang Zifeng went to look at the planted black iron branch, which was the branch with a faint vitality. He planted it in the orchard after returning from Ma Rulong, and used the wood-attributed spiritual energy in the orchard to warm it.

"I finally survived, and my vitality has grown a little stronger."

Liang Zifeng looked at the branches on the ground and sensed that the vitality inside them had become much stronger than when they were just planted. He smiled with some joy.

Then I looked up at the fruit trees that had sprouted and grown green leaves. Some of the fruit trees had begun to produce flower buds. Perhaps soon, this place would be a world full of blooming flowers.

There were many wild flowers blooming on the ground at this time, and seven or eight jade bees were busy everywhere. Now the jade bee colony has more than 30 worker bees. These worker bees are busy every day. These worker bees have helped Liang Zifeng a lot.

"I don't know if the third brother will come back for the New Year."

Thinking that New Year’s Eve is only a few days away, this is the first time for everyone to celebrate the New Year in the valley, and it would be a bit awkward if the third child is missing.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. The original plan was to decorate the platform with crystal light balls, and then have family activities on the platform at night.

But a cold wave hit two days ago, and the minimum temperature dropped to minus 42 degrees Celsius. In this kind of weather, except Liang Zifeng and Baihu, no one else was willing to go out and suffer the cold.

However, after getting the crystal light ball, Liang Zifeng would expand the space inside the mountain whenever he had time, and now he has dug out an activity room of more than 400 square meters.

However, the New Year's Eve activities are more lively in the orchard. The family sets up the New Year's Eve dinner in the orchard, and everyone prepares programs to liven up the atmosphere.

The little girl and Leng Yuzhao both performed a dance, allowing Liang Zifeng to see the effect of "Xuannv Foundation Building Method". In the past, watching Leng Yuzhao dance gave him a feeling of rising desire, but now he only felt a pleasing, extraordinary and stunning feeling.

The fourth brother performed a set of knife skills he created himself. Although it was very immature, it was pretty good.

The third brother did not come back for the New Year after all. Although fortune-telling showed that he was safe, everyone was still a little worried about him.

As for the fact that Liang's father and the others did not return to the valley, Liang Zifeng felt a little strange, but they should still be alive. He estimated that Liang Tianye should have some magical healing methods, and even be able to assist him in cultivation, but they have been hiding it all the time, and Liang Zifeng has no interest in exploring.

……

The New Year passed and Liang Zifeng turned 16. Everything in the valley was dull and time passed quickly.

Although the third brother did not come back to celebrate the New Year, he sent back a very long letter in late February. It was delivered to the outside of the valley by Yang Tiezhu himself, and was discovered by Xiaobai who was out foraging for food.

However, Yang Tiezhu did not enter the valley. Instead, he handed the letter to Xiaobai and hurried back. The situation in Yuanshan Village was not very optimistic. He had more things to do than usual and was not in the mood to visit the valley.

The third brother explained his current situation in the letter and said that he would be back after the spring. The pseudonym he used outside was also given a nickname by the people in the martial arts world, called the Phantom Swordsman, which came from the phantom clone in "Nine Shadows Phantom Steps".

He also mentioned the situation of Liang's father and others, saying that they were fine and were secretly accumulating strength. Liang Tianye turned a disaster into a blessing and successfully advanced to the middle stage of the third grade after recovering from his injury.

After several months, the valley was covered by the formation, and the temperature difference between inside and outside the formation had reached nearly six or seven degrees.

By the end of April, around April 26th, the ice and snow in the valley had completely melted, and the wild grass on the ground had a hint of green. However, in the outside world, the ice and snow did not completely melt until mid-May.

During this long and extremely cold winter, more than 20 villagers in Yuanshan Village froze to death or starved to death. In the mountain villages outside, even more people died. In some villages, almost no one survived.

This is not just the current situation around Yichun County, but the entire Daxing, and even the surrounding areas of Daxing. The sudden severe cold weather caught people off guard.

Smart people have already sensed the anomaly in the world, and those families with a long history have moved their entire families and started moving towards the vicinity of superpowers.

Therefore, the land around any force that possesses the status of Domain Lord or Martial Saint becomes a hot commodity across the entire continent, and ordinary people can only rely on themselves to survive this abnormal period.

In late May, the third brother came back, but there was a scar on his originally tender face, and Liang Zifeng also knew that there was a long knife scar on his back.

Obviously, the third brother suffered a lot outside, and his whole temperament changed drastically. He was no longer as calm as before, but was steady from the inside out.

By mid-July, the formation outside the valley was further improved, the middle-level illusion formation was also set up and successfully activated. From then on, the valley completely disappeared from the eyes of ordinary people, and anyone who successfully entered the illusion formation would become mentally ill after coming out.

After the illusion array was activated, Liang Zifeng finally felt relieved. Judging from the mental power of the third-grade warrior he had come into contact with, he was still unable to break through the illusion array.

After feeling that the valley was temporarily safe, he suddenly announced a retreat in a separate retreat room dug inside the mountain.

After the third brother came back, the fourth brother was very envious when he heard the third brother talk about his experiences outside. Unfortunately, he was too young, and Liang Zifeng would not let him break through. Instead, he always let him focus on practicing "The Heavenly Five Elements Body Tempering Art" to improve his aptitude.

The fourth brother originally planned to secretly break through to the middle level, but after seeing the third brother coming back, he was actually focused on improving his qualifications. After talking with the third brother, he realized the importance of qualifications and gave up the idea of ​​promotion.

This year's winter was the same as last year, neither earlier nor later, but the first snow came as early as the end of September.

On the day it snowed, the temperature outside the valley was already below zero, but the temperature in the valley was still around 25 degrees. However, when the snowflakes outside passed through the formation and entered the space of the valley, they melted into light rain, causing the temperature of the valley to slowly drop.

In fact, the formation deduced by Liang Zifeng still has many loopholes. The most obvious one is that these formations are only aimed at creatures with high intelligence and consciousness. For animals such as hares and pheasants, they basically cannot detect the existence of the formation.
