Not long after the king's beards entered the village, the tide of displaced people arrived at the Grand Canyon.

The first wave of shock began immediately.

Those who were driven by hunger, smelling grain and cattle from a long distance, followed this terrible smell, and without saying a word, they began to attack directly.

They carried a rudimentary ladder and held a very sharp wooden stick, and climbed silently against the stone wall, like ...... A swarm of black, thin old locusts.

Guo Yang, Anu, Wang Huzi, and everyone in the village looked at the faces of the homeless people very seriously, overwhelmed by this strange silence.

The homeless people were thin, their eyes were a little glazed, and their swarthy faces had no expression. What is especially heart-wrenching is that their eyes, which shimmer with a strange dark red, or blood red, should not have been human eyes for a long time.

The corners of Guo Yang's eyes twitched, but he still stared at the faces of those people without changing his face.

If it weren't for hunger, none of these people would be considered evil, and even many of them would be considered relatively virtuous. However, under the widespread famine, all men were driven mad by hunger, and all were stimulated by a helpless despair, and became more terrible than wild beasts.

Guo Yang had to make his heart cold, hardened, and become equally inhuman. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do it.

His knives are sharp, but deep down in his heart, he'd rather never use a knife to solve a problem.

He actually wanted to be a sheep, an auspicious, docile and rich sheep.

"Kill!"

Guo Yang suddenly shouted, and the canyon shook and echoed, breaking the strange silence in an instant.

The knife came out of its sheath, and a dark white light flashed, with a faint sound of wind and thunder, like a demon's sigh.

Three drops of blood splattered silently, paused in the air, and then fell, smashed into the clean dirt beneath the stone wall, and were torn apart.

Guo Yang sighed, glanced at it, and the three drops of blood seeped into the soil and disappeared at once.

The three outcasts who had climbed the stone wall first suddenly straightened up and fell vertically like three stones.

Almost at the same time, Anu's knife was unsheathed, and the two outcasts fell down the ladder in equal silence, slamming into the dirt, letting out an indiscernible sigh where their throats had been cut.

Sigh...... It's a sigh, the kind of relief that is finally liberated, a sigh.

The king's beard, along with thirty young men descended from merchants, and a hundred or so men, swung their swords in their hands.

Thirty knives, more than a hundred bronze swords, and a huge long-handled copper hammer tasted the first drop of blood.

Because of long-term hunger, or, because they may have devoured the flesh and blood of their own kind, the blood splattered by the homeless people turned out to be dark red, with a striking wisp of black, very viscous.

In less than a breath, the first group of people who climbed the stone wall turned into dead people and smashed to the ground with a "thud".

"Ahh

"Ahh

The crowd was boiling, accustomed to death and blood, and everyone had long since become hard-hearted. The corpses that flashed past their side and above their heads instead inspired their soul-deep evil thoughts and bestiality, and they raised their heads to the sky and let out a thrilling roar.

……

This day seems to be endless, and I can't wait for the end.

Everyone was red-eyed, and they just numbly waved their weapons and smashed down one wave after another of the people who had climbed the stone wall, falling to the ground like stones.

From noon until evening, there was no pause.

It was getting dark.

In the stockade, more than a dozen bronze tripods were erected, more than a dozen pigs were cooked, and the meat of the white flowers was happily tumbling in the hot water, making a "gurgling" sound. On the water, there is a thick layer of oil splashes, which is very beautiful.

Dozens of old men and women from the merchant relics threw large handfuls of salt, coriander and wild vegetables into the copper tripod, prepared various bronze food tripods, and scooped them out hot with soup and meat.

The rich aroma of meat permeated the entire Grand Canyon, and even overflowed the tall stone walls with the wind, spreading more than ten miles away.

The homeless people, who had planned to retreat, smelled the rich smell of meat, and immediately went berserk, roaring hoho, and launched an even more desperate attack.

Many years later, Guo Yang will think of this scene several times. He often wondered if it was a soldier of the Zhou people who attacked him, armed with a weapon, would he be sad and slow?

……

A tiresome slaughter lasted for a day and a night, and the bandits brought by Wangbeard were almost unable to wield their blades. Almost all of their bronze weapons were scrapped, so they had to pick up sticks and stones.

However, the thirty teenagers, after the first period of nausea, quickly got used to it. They advanced and retreated in unison, attacking and defending in a certain way, like a dangerous line of defense, and they were firmly guarded there, so that Wang Huzi and others were sideways.

And what made them envious the most was the thirty, nay, thirty-two bright knives, which, after slaughtering countless people, were still as clean as snow.

……

At noon, the tide of displaced people began to recede.

Outside the stone wall, the piles of corpses are close to the height of the stone wall, and you can even climb the stone wall directly without stepping on someone else's head or face.

After a long period of attack, the homeless people, who had already lost half their lives with hunger, trembled like hens after a rainstorm, and staggered into the distance.

They are aimless, and many people fall down suddenly while walking.

Hunger makes people have no shame, and as soon as someone falls to the ground, several people will pounce on them, tear them with their teeth and nails, eat them alive, and swallow them.

……

Guo Yang looked at the retreating crowd from afar and felt unprecedentedly tired. He sat down, reached out and grabbed a piece of cold pork, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, swallowing it with difficulty.

The meat had been cooked and served the night before, but he didn't bother to eat it. What's more, when it comes to killing, he doesn't like to eat meat.

The first wave of attacks finally ended, but Guo Yang's heart became even heavier.

There are crowds of homeless people everywhere, and if this continues, the day will end! Except for Anu, who was able to continue to command and fight, everyone else was close to collapse.

Thirty teenagers, pale, sat in a row, indifferent to the food in front of them, and even somewhat repulsed. The first time they participated in the battle, they received an unprecedented baptism, which made these half-grown children directly cross from excitement to disgust and boredom.

It was Wang Huzi, who may have long been accustomed to the days of licking blood with a knife, although his face was a little gloomy, but he was still the same as Guo Yang, endured nausea and boredom, reached out and grabbed the already cold piece of meat, swallowed it with difficulty, and picked up the copper jue, and drank all the broth.

If it doesn't work like this, sooner or later the Grand Canyon will have to be breached.

The number of people is too small to be on duty in turns.

Guo Yang slowly stood up, looked up at the sky, and said to Wang Huzi: "These corpses have to be disposed of." ”

Wang Huzi wiped his greasy mouth with the back of his hand, frowned, and said, "And it has to be dealt with as soon as possible." There has already been an outbreak of plague among the outcasts, and almost every one of them has been contaminated with bad things, and if it rots, it is estimated that none of us will be able to escape. ”

Guo Yang nodded slightly and asked, "How is it handled by the army?" ”

"Simple, with fire." Wang Huzi said.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. I'm going to have to get you some knives as soon as possible. Guo Yang said.

"Really?!" Wang Huzi was overjoyed, he saw the knives in the hands of Guo Yang, and he was really envious in his heart, helplessly, they had just taken refuge in and rashly asked for weapons, which was obviously a little inappropriate.

Hearing that Guo Yang was going to get a knife for everyone, the bandits brought by Wang Huzi jumped up with excitement.

"However, in the next few days, you must keep the stockade for me." Guo Yang left a sentence and turned away from the stone wall.

He took Anu and chose twenty or thirty other women. He wanted to build a knife, but he didn't want Wang Huzi and the others to know about it for the time being.

It's still a secret about iron.
