My game even includes ancient times

After finishing their meal, the group sat and rested for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, they prepared to set off again for the Heyang Sect.

Xia Yuan asked the shopkeeper to buy a straw hat for each of the five people. After wearing it and tying the rope, it could barely keep out some of the wind and snow.

Once again, they mounted their well-fed and watered horses, and following the previous order, with Xia Yuan leading the way, they crossed the streets and left the city.

The snow had been falling for most of the day, and not only did it show no signs of stopping, but it was falling even harder, and the wind had picked up as well, blowing snowflakes that hit my face, making it both cold and painful.

The official road was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the horses trotted along, splashing up snowballs mixed with mud.

Xia Yuan pulled up the collar of her fox fur coat to cover the lower half of her face and squinted at the distance.

In the vast white chaos ahead, there seemed to be several small black dots wriggling.

She glanced back at Bai Yushen, who understood immediately, spurred his horse slightly, and followed, walking alongside Xia Yuan.

"There are three people. Judging from their attire, they seem to be disciples of the Ouyang family."

Bai Yu squinted her eyes, which were being chilled by the biting wind, and turned to look at Xia Yuan. "Senior Sister, should we chase after them?"

Xia Yuan gently shook her head: "No need, the wind and snow are too strong."

She glanced back at Chu Yunsi.

Chu Yunsi, who had never traveled far from home before, encountered a rare blizzard on her first journey across two states.

At this moment, she was already dizzy from the north wind carrying countless snowflakes. She buried her head in her cloak, only revealing half of her dark back of her head, while He Shi beside her pulled on the reins and ran forward.

Xia Yuan and He Shi exchanged a glance, and He Shi nodded to her to indicate that he was fine.

When it comes to heavy snow in winter, Shuozhou and Linzhou are comparable. Every year, many houses collapse under the weight of the snow, and livestock and people freeze to death. He has long been accustomed to this kind of climate.

Moreover, at this moment, he was wearing comfortable and warm clothes, wrapped in a thick, windproof fox fur coat, and didn't have to walk in the snow that was up to his thighs, which was already quite comfortable.

So, in addition to traveling on his own, he could also help Chu Yunsi lead the horse, closely following behind Xia Yuan and Bai Yushen.

At the very back of the group, Chu He pulled his straw hat down to cover his eyebrows and eyes, his back relaxed, and he swayed back and forth with the horse's running movements, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, he abruptly lifted the front edge of his straw hat, quickly looked around, his previously relaxed muscles tensed instantly, and his right hand slowly rested on the hilt of his sword.

Just a moment ago, he clearly sensed that familiar gaze again.

Has that mysterious woman reappeared?

------

He Yu sat on the recliner, looking at the phone in her hand.

On the small screen, five horses carrying people galloped slowly through the swirling snow.

Above this screen is an expanded dialog box.

[Task 1: Showing Initial Talent]

[Mission Description: After a year of practice, young hero He Shi is about to make his debut. On this chaotic stage, please work diligently and secretly to ensure he delivers a stunning first performance.]

[Mission Requirement: Make He Shi's name known throughout the martial arts world.]

[Quest Completion Rewards: 280 Experience Points, 50 Silver, 1 Wind Chasing Talisman, 1 Universal Key]

Putting aside how to complete this latest task, just now, after He Yu went online in the [Immersive] mode, he suddenly realized that he couldn't become invisible at all in this kind of weather.

Because the snowflakes falling on her body would outline her figure.

Even after the snow has fallen, you can't just walk around on the ground. Every step you take leaves a footprint, like something out of a ghost story.

With no other option, she had to resort to playing the "mobile game" mode, something she hadn't done in a long time.

However, the limitations of the mobile game mode are too great, making it inconvenient for He Yu to cause trouble in secret. In that case, this task might not be so easy to complete.

Although He Shi's talent is indeed unmatched, he has only been training for a year, and the other young prodigies in the martial arts world are no pushovers either. It would be difficult for him to amaze everyone on his own.

However, you could try the almost unused "External" mode. Even if the effect is not as good as "Immersive," it is still better than mobile games.

Thinking this, He Yu closed the [Mission] panel, zoomed in on the screen, and prepared to check on He Shi. Then she caught a glimpse of Chu He's alarmed reaction at the end of the group.

Her fingers, which were swiping the screen, paused, and a complicated expression flashed across her face.

A few days ago, when He Yu logged on, she found a letter written to her on the stone table in Chu Zheng's courtyard.

God knows what she was feeling when she read that letter.

The letter began with a long string of pleasantries and attempts to get closer to the person, and then subtly reminded the person not to wander around the resort unnecessarily, especially not to enter other people's yards, to respect their privacy, and to avoid misunderstandings.

He Yu didn't know if the letter was an Easter egg from the game or a real letter from Chu Zheng.

If it's the former, she'll mentally praise the game designer's creativity and then let it go with a smile.

if the latter one……

The logic behind it is truly terrifying upon closer examination.

He Yu thought about it carefully for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he really resembled the fourth natural disaster that inexplicably invaded other worlds in some literary works.

Through the screen, she gently tapped He Shi's head, which was covered by a straw hat. Her chaotic thoughts were intertwined, and her gaze drifted into a daze.

If my guess is correct, then could He Shi really exist?

They truly live in another real world.

……

The unchanging scene on the screen suddenly changed. Xia Yuan, the team leader, tightened the reins, slowing down the entire team's pace.

He Yu refocused her gaze on the screen and sat up slightly.

Ahead of the five men, several horses stood by the roadside, heads bowed in the wind and snow, close to their companions.

Behind the horses, in the sheltered spot, two young men dressed in identical clothes were squatting on the ground. One of them had someone lying in his arms. Their clothes were the same as the other two, clearly indicating that they came from the same sect.

Noticing that several horses had stopped on the official road beside him, the young man who was giving water to the person lying down turned his head warily, keeping an eye on the people who were dismounting, while subtly reaching into his robes.

Only when the figure and face in red appeared in the blizzard did the young man's guarded expression suddenly relax, and obvious joy appeared in his eyes.

He turned to his companion and shouted something.

[Ouyang Jian: It's Miss Xia from the Chu family! Ye Bing, we're saved!]

The young woman named Ye Bing raised her head, revealing a smooth oval face, and her slanted, arched eyebrows added a touch of heroism to her gentle appearance.

[Ouyang Yebing: Really? That's great.]

As the two were talking, Xia Yuan had already walked up to them. She bent down slightly and glanced at the unconscious person.

[Xia Yuan: What's wrong?]
