Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 59: The man in the snow is as beautiful as jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world. Who says doing farm work is not handsome?

It had already been buried by heavy snow.

No wonder the two dogs were barking so eagerly? It turned out that they were buried.

Li Xiang came to the dog shed with a shovel and shoveled away the snow. The two dogs could see the light of day and barked excitedly. Then, they saw the heavy snow, a vast expanse of white, and became even more excited. One after the other, they rushed into the snow.

The snow was very deep this time, reaching above Li Xiang's knees. The two dogs disappeared from the snow, but they were still having fun, like little kids.

Poor dog, he has never seen such heavy snow in his life.

Li Xiang went over and cleared the snow from the entrance of the chicken coop and duck shed, then opened the door. The chickens and ducks inside were already impatient, especially the big rooster with a red crown and colorful feathers. The rooster took the lead and ran outside, and the rest of the chickens and ducks followed suit, following it as their leader.

After holding it in for a whole night, they were already exhausted. However, they just came out and hadn't run far when the big rooster stopped.

It stood on the snow, both of its paws deeply embedded in it. The cold wind was blowing, and it couldn't help but shrink its neck, looked around blankly, and then... turned around and flapped its wings to fly towards the chicken coop.

Seeing this, the rest of the chickens and ducks also followed suit. In less than ten seconds, the group of chickens and ducks just came out for a short walk and then hid back again.

It’s cold, too cold, at least minus seven or eight degrees Celsius.

However, now is not the coldest time. The coldest temperature can reach minus ten degrees Celsius, which is unimaginable for the south.

If this happened in ancient times, the emperor would have issued an edict of repentance!

"So you're afraid of the cold even with down jackets." Li Xiang couldn't help laughing. He walked to the storage room, scooped half a scoop of old millet with a broken gourd ladle, scattered it at the door of the chicken coop and duck shed, and then ignored these guys.

He still has a lot of things to do.

The most urgent task was to scrape some of the snow off the roof. The new kitchen and corridor were fine, as they were newly built and very solid, but the old house was in danger of collapse. With such a thick layer of snow on the roof, it might collapse.

Fortunately, his old house has been reinforced this time and can still hold up. However, this snowstorm will not end so easily. It will continue intermittently for more than half a month. If the snow is not removed in time, even the reinforced old house will not be able to withstand it.

Li Xiang took a long-handled rake, walked to the wall, and began to gently scrape the snow.

If you use too much force, the tiles may move, which will cause leaks. When his old house was being reinforced, he also "picked up tiles".

"Picking tiles" is a craft, which involves re-arranging the tiles on the roof and replacing the bad tiles and rotten wooden strips.

To be honest, Li Xiang's old house is quite distinctive and well maintained. It can barely be called an "ancient house". It has a long history and has witnessed the vicissitudes of time. If it were in an economically developed area, it would definitely be a popular check-in spot.

If I open a coffee shop in the backyard, I can definitely make money by charging twenty or thirty dollars for a cup of coffee.

In the backyard, the snow on the flat ground was about knee-deep, but the snow at the base of the wall, which had probably fallen before, was already more than a meter high. This was one of the reasons why the snow poured in as soon as his door was opened in the morning.

Li Xiang scraped away the snow on the roof of the old house and the old kitchen. At this time, grandma also got up.

"Please be careful. Wait until I clear the snow in the corridor before you come out." Li Xiang was afraid that his grandmother would fall. The old lady was afraid of falling because she was old. Once a fracture occurred, especially a pelvic fracture, it would not be easy to recover. Long-term bed rest would cause muscle atrophy and produce venous thrombosis.

Although there was not much snow in the corridor, some of it still drifted in. Grandma was very obedient and waited in the main room.

Li Xiang changed to a big broom and began to sweep the corridor. After sweeping it clean, he wanted to help his grandmother.

Grandma pushed him away with a smile and scolded: "I'm not so old that I can't walk!" She is also a bit strong-willed.

Li Xiang laughed and said, "I was worried that your legs would hurt, right?"

"You know what, after drinking your snake wine, my legs have been feeling much better these days than in previous years." Grandma said with a smile.

Li Xiang thought to himself that it might not just be the snake wine, but more because of the first-level spiritual herbs he had eaten.

After grandma washed up in the bathroom, she started to prepare breakfast, while Li Xiang continued to shovel snow. The snow that was scraped off the roof also had to be transported to a farther place.

He can only pile it up first, and when there is more space, he plans to build an ice and snow castle. Well, let's post a video. Well, we in the south can also play snow sculptures.

Although the end of the world is approaching, we still have to live our lives. Not only must we live our lives, but we must live them happily.

This is to find joy in adversity, and it is also a positive attitude in the face of disasters. Because even if you are pessimistic and gloomy all day long, will disasters and the end of the world not come?
Living his life over again, Li Xiang feels that it is important to please himself, a bit like "how can you clean up the world if you can't even clean up your own house?"

In the backyard, next to the old house, a tall persimmon tree stands alone, with thirty or forty bright red persimmons hanging from the top, like red lanterns hanging on the branches. A touch of red in the white snow, it is worthy of being called "Lingshuang Hou", beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Since the leaves of the persimmon tree had all fallen, only the bare trunks and branches were left, and there was not much snow. Li Xiang took a bamboo pole and gently poked the place on the tree where the snow was a little thicker, and the snow fell down.

Not far away, some pine, cypress, bamboo and other trees on the hilltop that were lush and green even in the winter were not so lucky. They were almost all bent by the heavy snow.

When heavy snow hits a pine tree, it will stand straight. But if the snow is too heavy, the pine tree will break. Pines and cypresses in the south rarely experience such extreme weather.

Just then, a "crackling" sound was heard, and a small tree halfway up the mountain could not bear the weight and broke.

This is not an isolated case. From time to time, "crackling" sounds can be heard from the mountain. If you look closely, you will find that many trees or bamboos have already been crushed.

Li Xiang looked at the vast expanse of white all over the mountains and his mind was filled with thoughts.

If possible, he hopes the end of the world will never come.

No one cherishes the ordinary but peaceful days ahead more than he does.

In the previous life, it was also this heavy snow. In retrospect, this unusually heavy snow was a precursor to disaster, but at the time, no one paid attention to it.

It’s the same now, not many people really take it seriously.

This kind of rare heavy snow is not completely absent in the south. For example, in 08 and 16, there were heavy snowfalls in the south.

However, this time was really different, because it lasted for a very long time, and every winter after that was unusually cold, and even in the south, heavy snow became commonplace.

Some people even proposed to provide central heating to the south.

Southerners have long envied northerners for their central heating.

"It will take more than nine years to reach that star region. It's not too close, but not too far either." Li Xiang sighed.

He silently calculated in his mind that the solar system travels about 64 billion kilometers a year, which is 640 billion kilometers in ten years. This number seems large, but what about when compared to light years?

One light year is about 94607 billion kilometers, and 640 billion kilometers is approximately 0.0068 light years, which means that with a distance of only 0.68% of a light year, endless disasters are about to befall!

"No matter what the future holds, live every day to the fullest!" Li Xiang cleared away distractions, cheered himself up, and continued shoveling snow.

The extraordinary inheritance he obtained was particularly suitable for practicing while doing farm work, and shoveling snow was actually similar to digging the ground.

Now that the amount of snow clearing work is so large, it is natural to integrate breathing techniques and physical skills into it in order to improve efficiency. At the same time, it is also a rare practice.

Breathe in, breathe out, breathe out, breathe in
With his unique breathing frequency and energy-generating skills, as he shoveled up snow one shovel at a time and threw it far away, Li Xiang's spiritual power flowed in his body, and bursts of clear light spread through his flesh and blood.

This made his complexion become more and more rosy, his skin became crystal clear, white and rosy, and the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a layer of holy light.

The man in the snow is as white as jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world.

Who says doing farm work isn’t cool?

　Thanks to "Wu Shudao" and "08a" for their rewards.
