Chapter 394: First Visit to Kyoto

Because summer has entered, the temperature in Xia Country has risen.

But since Lin Shi moved north, he saw fewer and fewer survivors along the way, and so did the source beasts.

It is difficult for low-level source beasts and ordinary humans to survive in such extremely cold temperatures.

Originally, there were troops stationed in the Western Province, but when Lin Shi passed by, people who happened to catch up with the troops moved south with the only survivors.

Lin Shi inquired casually and found out that their destination was Shashi. He heard that the base in Shashi had been basically completed and could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

Because the temperature in the north is getting lower and lower, they don't know whether they can survive this winter, so they decided to carry out a large-scale migration and go to Shashi to join Lin Tianrui's troops.

Lin Shi pointed out a more precise route to the officer who provided the information, and then parted ways with those people.

After that, we went all the way north to Kyoto.

In fact, Lin Shi didn't know that he was in Kyoto at first.

Before coming to the north, he had no idea that the snow in the north would be so severe, two or three times deeper than the snow in the south.

There are also frequent snowstorms that can last for several days and nights.

In many places, even buildings are no longer visible.

Lin Shi was not familiar with the terrain in the north. Even if he had a map, he could not identify the specific location.

If Lin Shi hadn't been able to use his mental power to scan the ancient buildings under the snow, he might not have been able to recognize that this place was once one of the most prosperous cities in the Xia Kingdom before the end of the world, Kyoto.

Before the end of the world and in his previous life, Lin Shi had never been to Kyoto because of his adoptive father. After the end of the world, he had no chance to set foot in the north.

In fact, he has always wanted to visit Kyoto.

Take a look at Tiananmen, take a look at the Forbidden City.

However, when we set foot on this land after the apocalypse, those familiar scenes on TV have been buried under the endless white snow.

All he could see was a desolate scene, which made Lin Shi feel slightly lost and confused.

But he quickly regained his composure.

After three months of searching for mutated plants and with the help of birth-promoting abilities, Lin Shi's mental power had reached a terrifying 8556 points.

Everything within a 17-kilometer radius of Kyoto was covered by his mental power.

Walk along and explore along the way.

No one, still no one.

Not even a source beast could be seen.

It's like a deserted desert with nothing.

Lin Shi knew that many of the dignitaries brought by Xia Guohong came from Kyoto.

Seeing that the temperature in Kyoto is so low now, I thought there would be no one left in Kyoto.

However, he didn't expect that just when he wanted to look around the entire Kyoto and leave, he accidentally discovered traces of human activities.

"Huh?"

Lin Shi raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Demon King, you go back to space first."

After taking the Demon King and Gibbon back into space, he took the correct direction and walked forward.

After walking more than ten kilometers, Lin Shi saw human footprints on the ground.

It was snowing heavily in Kyoto, and the footprints were obviously fresh.

Lin Shi walked along the footprints for a while, and finally saw a few survivors wearing coats sewn from the fur of the origin beast within the range of his mental power, digging into the snow.

Among them was a third-level evolver, and the other six were all second-level evolvers.

Lin Shi's mental power could clearly see what they were digging.

Beneath the snow lies a gas station that has been flooded by snow.

These people want to get oil.

He approached these people with neither fast nor slow steps.

When Lin Shi was within fifty meters, someone finally spotted Lin Shi.

"There's a situation!!"

The third-order evolver looked at Lin Shi warily and warned the people around him in a low voice.

The rest immediately dropped the shovels in their hands, drew out the weapons from their backs or waists, and prepared for battle.

There was quite a bit of wind and snow today, and it was already covered in white from fifty meters away, slightly obstructing the view.

However, they are all evolutionaries with excellent eyesight. When they saw a human figure instead of a tall beast, many people were obviously relieved.

Only the third-order evolver still did not relax his vigilance. He watched Lin Shi gradually approach until he was about ten meters away before he stopped and said:

"Stop! Who are you?"

Lin Shi: "I'm from out of town. I want to ask you for directions."

"Outside? Are there any living people out there now?"

A second-level middle-aged evolver said in surprise.

The third-order evolver also frowned. He looked at Lin Shi carefully, with vigilance and inquiry in his eyes, and said:

"What do you want to ask? Just ask, and leave as soon as you finish asking!"

Lin Shi blinked and asked:

"I would like to ask, how to get to Changbai Mountain? Do you know any landmark buildings at the foot of Changbai Mountain?"

"Changbai Mountain? We are from Kyoto and have never been to Changbai Mountain."

Third-order evolver Ma Chang said.

Several people behind him also echoed.

"In Changbai Mountain, it should be at least 130 degrees below zero now. It can freeze to death. Young man, I advise you to go home quickly."

"Yes, it's freezing cold now, and everything is completely white. If I couldn't still look at the sun, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between east, west, and north. You can find it anywhere in Changbai Mountain!"

Lin Shi naturally knew the situation.

The snow in the north is too deep.

If it weren't for his mental power, he wouldn't have known where he was when no one was around on the road.

Although there are maps that can determine the general direction and location, it is difficult to find a precise place.

Searching like a headless fly is undoubtedly a waste of time.

As long as he knows the specific features of Changbai Mountain, he can use his mental power to find the exact location. He still has confidence in this.

"I have to go to Changbai Mountain for something.

If you can provide me with the surrounding buildings or landmark landscape buildings in Changbai Mountain, I can exchange information with a windproof lighter and other materials. "

Lin Shi directly made a price and took out a windproof lighter from the space using his pocket as a cover.

Ordinary lighters are now extremely precious commodities, let alone windproof lighters.

It is self-evident how important the fire source is to the current survivors.

When they saw Lin Shi proposing a deal and taking out a lighter, several people had different expressions.

When a second-level evolver saw the windproof lighter in Lin Shi's hand, he immediately moved and leaned into Ma Chang's ear and said:

"Captain? Is there a girl in our stronghold who came to Kyoto from Ji Province to work and was left here? I remember that her hometown is in the Changbai Mountains. Maybe she knows the situation."

The voice of the second-order evolver was very soft, and the surroundings were filled with the sound of wind and snow.

None of the others heard what he said, but this distance did not trouble Lin Shi, who had excellent hearing.

Lin Shi's eyes flashed with joy.

There's something going on in the secret passage.

However, Ma Chang glared hard at the evolver who whispered to him, then turned to look at Lin Shi and said:

"None of us know the location of Changbai Mountain. I'm sorry, little brother, but I can't help."
