Having one's magic power sealed was a rather troublesome matter. How was one supposed to leave the wasteland? Lin Feng didn't know much about the wasteland, and it wasn't easy for him to learn more about it from this village. There was no way to cultivate in the wasteland, and they weren't cultivators, so they knew very little about the outside world.
Their lifespans weren't particularly long either. Of course, this was the Celestial Realm after all. Compared to ordinary people in the mortal world, the lifespans of ordinary people here were much longer. The lifespans of ordinary people in the mortal world were about a hundred years, while the lifespans of ordinary people here were about three hundred years. Although they couldn't cultivate in the wasteland, many people still practiced martial arts.
Practicing martial arts could increase the strength of their bodies and improve their constitution. It could also greatly increase their lifespans. Many people's lifespans could even reach four or five hundred years.
"Big brother, what are you doing here?" The little girl from before was extremely puzzled when she saw Lin Feng. She thought that Lin Feng should be resting in his room. Lin Feng looked at the little girl and smiled. "My body has recovered, so I came out for a walk."
The little girl nodded, but she didn't quite understand.
Lin Feng asked, "What's your name?"
The little girl sweetly replied, "I'm Qiao 'er."
"Qiao 'er? That's a very nice name. " Lin Feng smiled. He reached out and patted Qiao 'er's head. Although Qiao' er wasn't very old, it was obvious that she was a very obedient and cute little girl. She was very likable.
"Big brother, what's your name?" Qiao 'er asked.
"I'm Lin Feng." Lin Feng smiled.
Qiao 'er then asked softly, "Then will big brother become my brother-in-law?"
Lin Feng was a little confused when he heard Qiao 'er's question. Why was this suddenly brought up?
Lin Feng asked, "Why do you ask?"
Qiao 'er replied, "I heard some uncles and grandpas talking about this with my sister."
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. What was this all about?
He could ask Qiao 'er's sister later.
Soon, it was time for dinner.
Qiao 'er's sister returned with dinner. After chatting with Qiao' er, Lin Feng learned a lot of things. For example, this village was called the Ye Village, and her name was Ye Qiao 'er. She was seven years old.
As for her sister, her name was Ye Shuang 'er. He is twenty-one years old this year.
Three years ago, their parents died tragically under the attack of the beasts. Ye Shuang 'er took over her father's position and became the new chief of the Ye Village.
After hearing many things about Ye Shuang 'er, Lin Feng also felt a little emotional.
With such tender shoulders, how did he manage to carry the Ye Clan on his shoulders?
Dinner was very simple. There was a plate of wild vegetables. Lin Feng didn't know what this wild vegetable was called, a bowl of egg drop soup, and four vegetable nests. The vegetable nests were also made with wild vegetables.
Ye Shuang 'er placed a bowl of egg soup in front of Lin Feng and said, "You just woke up and need nourishment. Drink this."
Her voice was cold, and her palms looked a little rough. They didn't look like the palms of an ordinary girl.
"What about you guys?" Lin Feng asked.
"We'll drink water," Ye Shuang 'er said, not saying much.
? "Qiao 'er loves drinking water." Ye Qiao 'er glanced at the egg drop soup and swallowed her saliva. She then smiled and said.
"Are the conditions in the village really that harsh?" Lin Feng asked.
Ye Shuang 'er frowned slightly and said, "It's already winter. Once it snows, the mountain will be sealed. At that time, there will be many terrifying beasts roaming the forest and people won't be able to go out. At that time, food is more precious than life …"
"Food is more precious than life …" Lin Feng muttered. For a cultivator of his level, he couldn't understand these things. However, when he thought about it, this was the great wilderness. It was indeed too dangerous. The people of the great wilderness couldn't cultivate either. Life here was indeed tough.
Perhaps …
This was the place with the toughest living conditions in the Heavenly Realm.
It turned out that not every place in the Heavenly Realm was as beautiful as imagined. For example, the great wilderness made people sigh.
"Qiao 'er, drink this bowl of egg drop soup." Lin Feng placed the bowl in front of Qiao 'er.
"Big Brother, Qiao 'er likes drinking water …" Qiao' er's voice was loud and clear, but her eyes kept sneaking glances at the bowl of egg drop soup.
She was still growing, but she could only eat vegetables and nests. One could imagine how difficult life here was.
However, this was the situation that the Ye Family was facing.
It wasn't just the Ye Family, the other villages were the same.
Compared to the other places in the Heavenly Realm, this place was bustling and prosperous.
The Great Desolate Land was an abandoned place, a forgotten place. Everything in the Great Desolate Land seemed to be incompatible with the outside world. In the eyes of the outside world, everything in the Great Desolate Land seemed to have disappeared and should not continue to exist.
Everything here was filled with sin.
There were obviously many secrets hidden in the great wilderness, but Lin Feng didn't ask Ye Shuang 'er because she was just an ordinary village leader. The village wasn't strong, and she worried about the livelihood of the village every day, especially when winter came. When the snow sealed the mountains, it would be extremely dangerous. She would never forget what happened three years ago.
The snow sealed the mountains and ferocious beasts attacked. The Ye Family was so weak, they couldn't even withstand a single blow. Almost half of the people in the village were eaten by ferocious beasts, including her parents. However, no one could stop all of this. They only left after the ferocious beasts had eaten their fill. This was the current situation she was facing. Every day, she worried. If the snow sealed the mountains and ferocious beasts appeared again, how would they defend against those ferocious beasts?
One ferocious beast was enough to completely destroy the Ye Family.
"How about this, the three of us will each take a third." Lin Feng smiled and divided the bowl of egg drop soup into three portions.
Qiao 'er looked at her sister, Ye Shuang' er.
Seeing her sister nod, she said happily, "Thank you, big brother."
The little girl stuck out her tongue and licked the egg drop soup. Then, she slowly savored the taste, as if she was eating the most delicious food in the world.
"You can drink this, I don't need it." Ye Shuang 'er said and pushed the bowl to Lin Feng.
Her face was pale. She had suffered some injuries in the previous battle, and she needed time to recover. She also needed to replenish her nutrients.
"You can choose to drink it or throw it away." Lin Feng said.
Wasting food was absolutely not allowed, so when she heard Lin Feng's words, even the good-tempered Ye Shuang 'er couldn't help but be angry. She looked at Lin Feng angrily, but when she thought of Lin Feng as an' injured person ', the anger in her heart quickly dissipated.
The three of them ate in silence.
Lin Feng asked, "I heard that the people in the village want you to marry me?"
At the mention of this, Ye Shuang 'er's face flushed red. She said, "Not to marry you, but to make you a live-in son-in-law."
"A live-in son-in-law?" Lin Feng asked.
"Yes."
Ye Shuang 'er nodded and said, "It's the elders' idea. They think that I can't marry someone else, because if I do, will the Ye Clan still belong to the Ye Clan?"
Lin Feng said, "Seems like they think that a married woman is like water that can be poured out. When the time comes, you will side with your in-laws."
Ye Shuang 'er said, "Actually, I've never thought of getting married. I will definitely let the Ye Clan live a good life. This is my wish."
Lin Feng said, "So, you didn't agree to this?"
Ye Shuang 'er was silent.
Lin Feng muttered in his heart. She couldn't have agreed, right?
Was he marrying into the Ye Clan?
Becoming a live-in son-in-law?
? What was going on?
Ye Shuang 'er said, "The elders in the village said that only my sister and I are left in the main branch. They hope that we can give birth to a boy so that we can have a successor. You were picked up by us, so they can rest assured."
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. What was going on?
He looked at Ye Shuang 'er and asked, "What do you think?"
Ye Shuang 'er said, "I … haven't thought about it yet."
"Okay." Lin Feng nodded and did not say anything else.
When it was time to rest at night, Ye Shuang 'er and her sister, Ye Qiao' er, rested in the inner room.
Lin Feng rested in the outer room.
The winter here seemed to be very cold.
Therefore, winter was the most difficult time to endure.
Moreover, winter would last for about five months. In a year, half of the time would be spent in winter.
One could imagine.
How difficult would it be to endure such days?
But this was the problem they faced in reality …
It was no wonder that Ye Shuang 'er and the rest had chosen to fight to the death even though they knew that they were no match for Bai Qihu and the others.
If they couldn't protect the grain …
At least seventy to eighty percent of the people in the village would starve to death.
Therefore …
That was why they fought with those people without fear of death.
There was no other way.
In the long winter, if they wanted to survive, they had to have food.
It snowed that night.
The snow was very heavy. Lin Feng had never seen such heavy snow before. In just one night, the snow had accumulated to a depth of one meter.
Many people were worried sick and sick at heart.
Lin Feng chatted with some elders. Those elders were also sighing because this year's snow had come half a month earlier than the previous years. Moreover, the snow was heavier than the previous years.
This winter!
? It would be even more difficult to endure!
Therefore, they were very worried!
Lin Feng was walking around in the village. He saw some disciples of the village, they were all practicing martial arts. Everybody was working hard.
Because they needed to protect the village.
They could not afford to let their guard down.
After seeing Lin Feng, the bearded man shouted, "Brother Lin, how is your recovery?"
"Not bad." Lin Feng replied with a smile.
It was not strange that the man knew his name. After all, Lin Feng had already told his name to Ye Shuang 'er, Ye Qiao' er.
The people in the village should have known by now.
The burly man quickly walked towards Lin Feng. When Lin Feng got closer, he realized that he wasn't very old. He looked quite young, but he had a beard, so he looked quite coarse.
"What's your name?" Lin Feng asked.
"Hehe, my name is Ye Biao." The man said.
Lin Feng had some understanding of the Ye Village. Although it was called the Ye Village, not everyone in the village had the surname Ye. There were seven or eight other clans with the surname Ye, but they did not have the advantage in numbers.
The people in the Ye Village were mainly from the Ye Family.
"I heard that you brought me back that day. Thank you." Lin Feng said.
"Hehe, Brother Lin, you're too courteous. The village leader is my cousin with the same surname. From now on, you'll be my brother-in-law. We'll be a family soon." Ye Biao said.
Lin Feng was speechless.
Did the entire Ye Village think that he was going to marry Ye Shuang 'er?
However, he could not refute this.
Roar!
At this moment, a tiger's roar came from the forest outside the village. This tiger's roar caused countless people in the village to panic.
Many people thought that it was a wild beast and quickly hid in a cellar that was dug in the depths of the village.
The wild beast had brought too many painful memories to the people of the Ye Village.
"Brother Lin, quickly run deeper and hide in the cellar with everyone. I'll arrange for the other clansmen," Ye Biao said solemnly.
He did not stop and quickly left.
Besides, Lin Feng didn't run into the depths of the village. He walked towards the exit of the Ye Clan. Lin Feng had the feeling that the tiger wasn't a ferocious beast, it was probably a wild animal.
He was still able to determine this point.
Perhaps he could kill the tiger and give it to the people in the village to improve their lives.
Soon, Lin Feng walked out of the Ye Village.
? He searched for the tiger's whereabouts in the forest.
Lin Feng smiled bitterly. In the vast wilderness, even his divine sense was sealed. Hence, he could not use his divine sense to search for the tiger's whereabouts.
Otherwise, he would have found the tiger long ago.
However, Lin Feng felt a dangerous aura.
That ferocious tiger should have locked onto him.
Although tigers were known as the kings of the forest, they were extremely cautious.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of wild beast would use sneak attacks when hunting prey.
Even if wild beasts were weak in their eyes, they would still use sneak attacks instead of fighting them head-on. Perhaps this had something to do with the habits of their species. It was a habit that had been cultivated over the years and passed down from generation to generation. It had long been integrated into their blood and could not be erased.
Whoosh.
Suddenly, a silhouette appeared behind Lin Feng at an incredible speed, it was the ferocious tiger.
Lin Feng's current divine sense, magical power, divine ability, and so on were all imprisoned because of the vast wilderness.
However, his perception and reaction were still extremely sharp.
Moreover, Lin Feng's physical strength did not decrease.
He turned around and threw a punch at the ferocious tiger that was pouncing towards him.
Bang!
Lin Feng's punch collided with the tiger's huge claws. The tiger was sent flying by the powerful force.
Its claws were directly broken and its huge body broke a big tree.
Lin Feng saw the tiger's appearance clearly at this time. It was about seven to eight meters long and four to five meters tall. Its body was really big.
Although it had not transformed into a beast, its strength was not to be underestimated.
However.
At that moment, the ferocious tiger was looking at Lin Feng as if he were looking at a demon. Its gigantic body was shaking violently.
It really couldn't understand how this young human could have such terrifying power.
The tiger quickly fled into the depths of the forest.
Lin Feng sneered and chased after it in a few steps. Lin Feng quickly caught up with the tiger and directly jumped on its back. He sat on the tiger's back. The tiger wanted to throw Lin Feng off, but it could not do so.
Lin Feng punched the tiger's head and the tiger's head was shattered.
It died on the spot.
The ferocious tiger's enormous body fell to the ground with a loud crash, dead.
Seeing that the tiger was killed by him, Lin Feng smiled bitterly. If it was outside, wouldn't it be easy to deal with such a tiger?
It would just be a snap of the finger.
However, it was not possible here.
He could not even send out a sword qi. He could only rely on his fists and nothing else.
The tiger's body was big enough to be half a good bonfire dinner.
? Lin Feng carried the tiger and walked in the direction of the Ye Family.
At this moment.
Most of the people of the Ye Family were hiding in the cellar. Ye Shuang 'er and dozens of other warriors were hiding in various parts of the Ye Family, looking outside with a serious expression.
"It's the Giant Forest Tiger."
Ye Biao's voice was heard.
Many people's faces were pale.
Including Ye Shuang 'er.
Although the Giant Forest Tiger was not a ferocious beast, it was still a ferocious tiger because of its huge size. It was not easy to deal with. If they wanted to kill this Giant Forest Tiger, they would lose at least half of their warriors.
Ye Shuang 'er could only pray that they would be able to scare the Giant Forest Tiger away.
This way, they would not lose so many people.
As the Giant Forest Tiger approached the Ye Family, everyone's hands were trembling slightly.
Ye Shuang 'er's hand, which was holding onto her sword, was also trembling slightly.
They could not attack now. They had to wait for the Giant Forest Tiger to come closer and then use arrows to deal with it.
In fact, Ye Shuang 'er knew that the Giant Forest Tiger's fur was too thick. Even if they used arrows to deal with the Giant Forest Tiger, it would not be able to cause much damage.
However, they did not have any more powerful means to deal with the Giant Forest Tiger.
In the cellar.
Many people were trembling in fear.
"Mother, I'm scared …"
? Some of the children said in fear.
Not only were they scared, but the adults were too.
Ye Qiao 'er's eyes were also filled with fear. Three years ago, when she was only four years old, she saw her parents being eaten by ferocious beasts.
And now.
More ferocious beasts had come to the village.
And her sister.
She led the people to deal with the ferocious beasts.
She only had Ye Shuang 'er left as her closest kin.
She was afraid.
Her sister had also been killed by the ferocious beasts.
"They have entered the village. Archers, get ready."
Ye Shuang 'er said in a low voice.
Many people felt their throats dry.
But they had no way out.
They could only choose to fight the Giant Forest Tiger.
They would fight to the death.
However, right at this moment, they saw the enormous mountain forest tiger fall to the ground with a loud bang.
A good-looking young man was standing beside the giant tiger of the forest.
There was a faint smile on his face.
The Giant Forest Tiger!
It had been killed by that youth!
That youth was Lin Feng!
