The northern border was already covered with snow at this time, and only in the hot summer did the snow retreat a lot, revealing only the streets for pedestrians.

The vast and endless mountains have long been covered with a thick white coat of snow, and thick snow covers the villages under the snow-capped mountains.

At noon, the sun shone on the snow, and everything seemed white as if the whole world was white and silent. There was a village at the foot of a huge snow-capped mountain, with what seemed to be thirty households.

People in the northern border area wear thick coats all year round, and during the day they go to market on the snow-covered streets.

An older man was smoking beside a wall covered in thick snow. After he finished smoking, the smoke rings he exhaled were a little bit indistinguishable from the white breath he exhaled in the morning.

There was a little kid next to him with a round, red face, and he was wearing a thick coat like everyone else in the north.

The little kid couldn't walk steadily in the thick snow. He limped to the sled with his left and right legs and said, "Grandpa, we should go transport wood. Otherwise, we will be cold and hungry at night."

The old man put down his pipe, looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying, "Where is our destination this time?"

"Of course it's Longzhou, because it's the nearest rich place to us." The old man nodded immediately and said, "Longzhou is indeed the nearest rich place to us, but besides Longzhou, where is the nearest place to us and richer than Longzhou?" The little guy immediately said, "Of course it's Chuanzhou."

At this time, the old man next to him was still talking to himself: "It will take a day or two to get to Longzhou from here." The little guy nodded immediately.

"I know. Let's set off early too. I think most of the other families have already left, Grandpa."

"I want to go big this time. I plan to go to Chuanzhou." The old man packed up the special wood that he had cut from the mountains. He loaded the wood onto the sled, held the kid in front of him, and said, "Let's go!"

When they were about to leave, an old lady suddenly came up behind them. She walked over and said, "You two are in such a hurry that you didn't even prepare any food before you left. It will take you more than ten days to go back and forth. If you don't have any food, you will starve to death on the road."

The old man looked at the kid in his arms and said, "Hey, kid, didn't you take some food?"

The little one said, "Grandpa, isn't this your responsibility?"

At this time, the two gentlemen looked at each other, and then were so embarrassed that they couldn't speak.

Then the old lady took out a few large cakes from his arms.

"You are so careless. How are you going to survive without me?"

Then, in the distance, I saw two people sitting on a sled slowly disappearing into the snow.

The wind blowing down from the snow-capped mountains became stronger, as if a blizzard was coming. He looked at the aurora in the sky, then looked at the two masters who disappeared in the blizzard, and slowly returned to the village.

The temperature at night had reached more than thirty degrees below zero, and then, at night, the blizzard continued to blow.

At this time, the old man and the little one lit the lanterns they used at night, and a yellow lantern illuminated the night road.

Although the snowstorm was still blowing, many yellow spots of light appeared around. It turned out that many people in many villages on the northern border went out to sell their hometown specialties.

“It’s also for a living!”

The little sparks of fire in the snow across the border were like sparks, forming a bright fire dragon.

The blizzard was still falling in the snow-capped mountains, like a constantly rotating white vortex, but suddenly a soldier in ice armor broke out of the snow, and behind him, many more soldiers broke out of the ice in the snow within a hundred miles of the snow-capped mountains. Finally, looking around, the entire snow-capped mountains were full of soldiers, like a white ocean.

They kept cheering, and a man riding a huge white bear slowly walked down from the top of the mountain, as if he was a god walking out of the mountain.

All the soldiers on the snow-capped mountains shouted towards the man, "General Feng Xiong is mighty!" When the view zoomed in, they saw a middle-aged man wearing a dark blue helmet, a white cloak behind him, and silver-white armor. His eyes were deep and firm, like a shining star.

Feng Xiong turned around cautiously and called out the prettier woman behind him.

Her arrival formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding soldiers and seemed out of place. In this cold environment, she wore relatively little, but the clothes on her body were made of white icy ice brick apricot clothes, giving people a cool feeling.

She was wearing shoes made of ice, and her small and delicate feet could be clearly seen through the transparent ice. Her lush blue hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, fluttering slightly and emitting a faint fragrance.

Her deep eyes are like the twinkling stars in the night sky, which make people intoxicated. Behind her, there stands a huge white deer. Its fur is as white as snow and exudes a hint of coldness, as if it has merged with the surrounding ice and snow.

Feng Xiong looked at the endless plain in front of him, then turned his head to look at the glacier mountains, and said in his heart that the Donghuang Territory was really lucky! Then he said to the woman behind him: "Princess, this is the border between Donghuang Territory and us. Should we launch an attack now?"

The woman at the side said, "General, you can handle it yourself. I am only here to supervise the army. As for the specific matters, you can make your own judgment. But if you must consider my opinion, I ask you to spare those women, young and old."

The general looked at the woman, then sneered and said, "Although this is not a good thing to say, Your Highness, please don't forget why you are here. It is not a good thing to be soft-hearted in the royal family."

Afterwards, Feng Xiong immediately ordered the entire army to leave no trace wherever they passed.

The cavalrymen who first received the order had organized hundreds of people to charge down from the snow-capped mountains. Then a dozen messengers passed through the entire army and conveyed the general's order to the entire army.

"No piece of armor remains wherever we go."

"Nothing remains wherever it passes." In the end, the entire snow-capped mountain echoes with these words.

The people in the village were still sleeping soundly. A middle-aged man was still snoring in his sleep. Then there was a sudden explosion outside and flames. He woke up from his dream and opened the door in a daze. Suddenly, a man in ice armor rushed over and shot him to the ground with a sword.

In a moment, the entire village had been burned, killed and looted. In the snowstorm, there were hundreds of cavalrymen, holding torches in their hands, galloping from a lit village to another quiet village.

The others who were not riding horses were slower. They waited for the cavalry in front to succeed, and then moved towards the cavalry from their original locations.

The massacre continued all night until dawn, when the sun shone into the bloody village. There were still bloodstains on the snow and the village was still on fire.

There were many survivors around, they looked helpless and at a loss, shouting non-stop.

The soldiers at the border reported the situation to the territory, and the survivors began the task of repairing their homes.

After dozens of days, people who had traveled far away began to return home one after another.

The old man and the little one also returned to the village, but the first thing they found when they came back was that many houses in the village were on fire. They looked around a little at a loss.

At this time, the old man suddenly found his brother, who was holding his wife and crying in the snow. Then the old man slowly walked behind him and said, "Little sister, what's wrong?"

"Brother, my wife is dead." He slowly took her towards his dilapidated house while shouting.

"Those thieves from the border are here again. They're here again."

The old man immediately realized that something was wrong, and then he rushed home without caring about others and the little one. He prayed that his mother in the house was okay. At this time, he came to the door of the house and saw a white-haired old lady planting vegetables in front of the door. Then he immediately ran over and said, "Mom, are you okay?"

The old lady turned around, hugged the old man in her arms and said, "It's okay, it's a pity that almost everyone in the surrounding villages died." The old man, the little one, and the old lady were lucky, but their neighbors were also unfortunate.

At this time, people who had returned from afar returned to their hometowns, only to see their relatives and friends dying in front of them, and many sharp cries were heard all around them.

Dong Bo in Donghuang City roared loudly in anger.

"How dare they come again?"
