Winter in Yuhe seems to have happened without warning. For many days, the sky remains unchanged, gray and wet, just like the blue kakiburi is soaked in ink and is about to drip.
The yellowing foxtail grass in the wild fields was drifting in the wind with its last breath, and the body was already shivering.
