229: C229 Barrenlands

C229 Barrenlands

Although the Northern Realm borders the Jiangbei Region, in reality, there was a huge mountain range between the two of them. Not only was the distance very far, there were also very few aircraft heading to the Northern Realm.

Ding Yi finally managed to book a plane ticket and it was still 4 or 5 in the morning. Thus, Ding Yi had to get up and pack up after sleeping for two hours.

After packing up, Ding Yi left for the airport with his bag on his back.

Originally, Han Feirong wanted to send him off, but Ding Yi felt that it wasn't safe for Han Feirong to go back alone at night, so he didn't let her out. Instead, he took a taxi to the airport.

Jinzhou Airport was deserted at dawn, and there were basically no people around. Ding Yi came to the airport, passed through security and came to the departure lounge with his boarding pass. Looking through the glass, he could only see two or three aircraft standing alone on the runway.

"It's still a little too slow." Ding Yi shook his head and sighed.

Four hours later, Ding Yi walked out of the plane. Although he had changed his clothes in advance, the cold wind still hit him when he walked out of the cabin.

Luckily, after circulating the martial arts cultivation in his body, he managed to prevent the cold from coming out of his body. Ding Yi rubbed his hands as he walked out of the airport.

It was only when Ding Yi truly stepped onto the ground of Northern Realm that he could truly feel the cold weather of Northern Realm, as if it was a completely different season from the north of the river.

Although it wasn't snowing, the bone-piercing cold wind was like maggots that crazily drilled through the gaps of Ding Yi's clothes. If it weren't for Ding Yi circulating his terrifying power, ordinary people wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of weather.

Walking out of the airport, the entire Northern Realm seemed somewhat barren. There weren't any tall buildings in the surroundings, only a few short buildings surrounding the airport.

In the entire Northern Realm, only this airport, could be considered as the only place that was connected to the outside world other than the train.

The airport's surroundings were fine, but as Ding Yi left the airport, the surroundings became more and more barren. There were also very few signs of human life, so it was very difficult to see a single pedestrian on the road.

Ding Yi gave Jin Wudao a call, but this time, no one answered. Helpless, Ding Yi could only determine a general direction and grope forward on foot.

This place was completely out of Ding Yi's expectations, to the point where he couldn't even get a car. He remembered that although his Northern Realm was also very poor, there were quite a few farmers driving around, so how could he not see anyone after walking for half a day?

After walking for an entire day, Ding Yi finally found a village along the path. This was the only place he saw signs of human habitation after exiting the airport.

This was not a large village. A few people wrapped in animal furs would pass by occasionally. Perhaps because they had never seen an outsider, Ding Yi immediately aroused the village's vigilance.

"Hey, outsider, are you here to hunt Snow Monster as well?" A young, strong guy saw Ding Yi and asked in stiff Mandarin.

Hearing this, Ding Yi was stunned and subconsciously asked: "Hunting Snow Monster?"

"Yeah, are you not here to hunt Snow Monster?" The strong guy looked at Ding Yi and said curiously, "A few days ago, there were a few groups of people who came to the village to hunt Snow Monster."

"What is a Snow Monster?" Ding Yi had never heard of this Snow Monster before, so he asked in confusion.

Seeing Ding Yi's puzzled face, the strong guy revealed a look of disappointment and muttered: "Looks like you really aren't here to hunt Snow Monster. I thought I would have a chance to see the world with you."

"That's true. With your small body, how could you be a match for the Snow Monster?" After saying that, the strong guy helplessly shook his head.

"Little brother, you still haven't told me what a Snow Monster is." Ding Yi chatted with the strong guy with interest.

From the words of this strong guy, someone passed by this village a few days ago, could it be Jin Wudao's group? If not, then who could it be? What exactly is a Snow Monster?

This was Ding Yi's question, but before Zhuang Zi could answer, a middle-aged man with a full beard walked over. He stared at Ding Yi in alarm and waved at him. When Zhuang Zi returned to Ding Yi's side, he said angrily, "Foreigner, our chief wants to see you."

"Village Head?" Ding Yi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that someone would want to see him the moment he entered the village. "Alright, lead the way."

However, Ding Yi did not refuse. To be able to see the village chief was naturally the best. The village chief knew this place the best. The information would be more detailed and accurate.

"Don't try to harm our village, or I will personally remove your head!" The bearded man bared his teeth at Ding Yi and threatened fiercely.

Ding Yi quickly followed the bearded man to a house. After arriving there, the bearded man revealed a respectful expression. He lightly knocked on the door and waited outside with a meek face.

After a while, an old man opened the door from the inside. When he saw Big Beard and Ding Yi, he smiled and said, "Come in."2

"You are the village chief?" Ding Yi walked into the house and asked curiously.

This old man didn't seem to be young anymore. His hair was as white as snow, his waist was as thin as a stick, and his face was full of wrinkles.

"No, the Village Chief is inside." The old man shook his head with a smile and brought Ding Yi inside.

"Grandpa Ji!" When he saw the old man, the young man immediately revealed a simple and honest smile.

The old man rubbed the young man's head and said amiably: "Brat, I told you earlier, it's extremely dangerous outside. Snow Monster s are not something you can handle.

"I just want to go out and see what a Snow Monster looks like." Who knew that the originally simple and honest face of the sturdy boy suddenly revealed a determined expression. He clenched his fist and said, "I will definitely become an outstanding hunter. I will definitely be able to hunt a Snow Monster for the village!"

Speaking up to here, Ding Yi couldn't help but to glance at the strong and unyielding look on the young man's face.

Soon, Ding Yi saw the Village Head that the old man spoke of, a tall and sturdy middle-aged man. However, his appearance caused Ding Yi to be stunned.

He looked exactly like the people from Jiangbei, with no sideburns like the others, he looked white and clean, a far cry from the people from Northern Realm. Only he was as tall and sturdy as them.

"Hello." The Village Chief sat on the ground. After seeing Ding Yi and the others, he stood up.

Hearing the village chief's fluent mandarin language, Ding Yi was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded with a smile and said, "Hello, I was just passing by the treasure trove today. May I know if you have any advice for me?"
