Rolling mountains, steep stone walls, dangerous peaks, and strange rocks.

Beneath the cliffs, piled with white bones, there is a deathly silence in the beautiful scenery.

All the birds that can be found have been eaten up by the hungry people who have come to flee, the bark of the small trees has been eaten, the hungry people have begun to cook the bark of the larger trees, the newborn babies have been boiled and drunk as food, and half a sweet potato can be exchanged for a big girl with yellow flowers who usually have a beautiful national color.

All the unknown wild vegetables have been eaten, and even the leaves have been eaten.

The plague was rampant, and those people in Henan, Hubei and other provinces who were afraid of the plague all hid in the deep mountains and old forests.

The number of people who come to the deep mountains and old forests is gradually increasing, but the food is getting less and less day by day, until there is no more food, so in some deep mountains and old forests, the phenomenon of some people eating people has begun to be common.

In this huge mountain range, it is impossible to appear alone, and once it is caught by other gathered people, it will be steamed and eaten, and it will definitely be in danger of life anyway.

Tian Wenjing was already stunned when he just walked into the deep mountains and old forests, in this mountain forest with good scenery, people actually use thatched as their houses, or caves as their homes, or build a shed under the big trees, which can be regarded as a house.

Under this vast wood, a large part of the people have no thatched caves, etc., and many refugees just lie down against a tree, and they have to keep their ears on the side of the changes around them, for fear that they have been thrown into the cauldron and boiled and eaten when they wake up.

In the early days when people entered this deep mountain forest, the corpses that froze and starved to death were thrown everywhere, attracting some wild wolves to covet them, and they came out in groups during the day to eat the corpses.

A person is thin and only bones are left, but those wolves are very fat, because wolves are in packs, so people are always very afraid, and there are a few hunters who are not afraid of death, and they dig a trap directly next to the corpse

Not to mention that this trick is quite effective, the wolf who came to eat the corpse saw three or four companions who fell in a row, and he no longer dared to come and eat the corpse easily, but stared at it with blue eyes in the distance, and sometimes he was extremely hungry, and attacked directly when he saw a living person.

Later, the wild vegetables were eaten up, the bark was gnawed away, and people began to eat people, from children to adults, and from then on, the stench of corpses appeared everywhere in the deep mountains and old forests, but layers of white bones.

"My lord, go back, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time", a staff member hurriedly persuaded Tian Wenjing to hurry back home.

Tian Wenjing looked at the mountain peak in the distance, a puff of black smoke was rising there, it seemed that there were already many people living there, and he was thinking about whether to go over and have a look.

Suddenly, a group of hungry and panicked victims quickly rushed out, hooked several soldiers at the tail of the escort soldier team with a divine rope, and dragged them directly into the cave with lightning speed.

In this case, Tian Wenjing decided to retreat immediately.

"Let's withdraw!"

Tian Wenjing issued an order, which was exactly what the soldiers who followed him would not be able to ask for, after all, in this place, from time to time, they had to worry about being caught and eaten raw by the victims who fled here, and it was absolutely impossible to say that they were not afraid.

"Lord Tian, slow down", a group of people and horses with bows and arrows quickly appeared beside Tian Wenjing, shooting arrows while approaching this side, arrows on both sides rained down, shouts burst, and the last moans of some people before being shot and killed were heard in countless corners.

"Be careful, protect your lords!" , Tian Wenjing's subordinates were highly vigilant, and quickly commanded the soldiers to join together and protect Lord Tian layer by layer.

"Is it Tian Wen Jingtian? Immediately, Marshal Xiang has something important to discuss! ”

After the group of soldiers-like people killed all the people in the surrounding caves and thatched huts, they began to gradually approach Tian Wenjing's guards.

"It's my family, Tian Wen Jingtian! Who's coming? Tian Wenjing's staff replied instead of Tian Wenjing himself, indeed, many times, the more powerful the position, the more you need to be cautious in your words and deeds, and general words are generally directly handed over to the subordinates to be responsible.

"The young general's name is Gan Yuxing, and the young general is the adjutant of General Ma Xiang sent by the Holy Lord for disaster relief this time, and I heard that my subordinates said that the adults are here, and I am specially ordered by Marshal Xiang to come here to meet with the adults, please leave immediately to meet with the marshal of my family to discuss countermeasures," said Adjutant Gan.

"Why do you want to exterminate these people, it is not easy for these people to flee here from thousands of miles away, why don't you cherish their lives, but kill them innocently?" , Tian Wenjing's staff, named Dong Wenjun, known as "Sai Zhuge " asked.

This person is resourceful and knowledgeable, and since he participated in a case tried by Tian Daren, he has admired Tian Wenjing all his life, so he decided to follow Tian Wenjing for the rest of his life.

Tian Wenjing did not treat him badly at all, every time the emperor rewarded him with gold, silver and jewelry, he always asked people to send him a very rich part, and also married him a beautiful lady like a flower, and rewarded him with a set of local prominent mansions, which made him instantly from a poor and sour show to a rich man with thousands of acres of land, and then a group of wives and concubines, which made him grateful to Tian Wenjing.

"Adults don't know, the famine is rife here, the vegetable roots here have been eaten, the bark is hard to obtain, and people have been commonly cannibalistic, if you don't kill the people around you first and then pass through here, then the young general and the people led by the young general will definitely be captured by their ropes, or tripped and grabbed by them, or fell into their swords and swords, they must be dead without a place to be buried, if they don't die, then we will die!"

Adjutant Gan said a lot in detail, obviously this person has been here for a long time, and he already knows a lot about this place, so he knows how to survive in this jungle.

"Now where is Marshal Xiang stationed?" , Dong Wenjun hurriedly asked Tian Wenjing, and Tian Wenjing was bowing his head and contemplating, clasping his fingers, as if thinking about how to deal with this extremely complicated situation.

"Tell your lord, at this moment, the 20,000 troops led by Marshal Xiang are stationed in the valley ahead, not far from here, because of the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, there have been many deaths among the soldiers, but fortunately, because Xiang prohibits the army from contacting the people, so that the 20,000 troops have not appeared plague for the time being, and the food and gold are still there."

"Let's go to the barracks first, and then it's not too late to discuss the plan together", Dong Wenjun said this, put his mouth close to Tian Wenjing's ear and whispered some words.

Tian Wenjing immediately reacted, "Someone is coming, immediately follow him to check first, no matter the result, return immediately, at present, the team of people can be temporarily stationed here, waiting for the news of your smooth return."

"Yes, my lord"

This strategy was proposed by Dong Wenjing to Tian Wenjing, which was to prevent these people from uniting to kill and eat each other in this situation where everyone eats each other.

The wind and dust were rolling, and the group disappeared for about half an hour and ran back.

"My lord, it is indeed Marshal Xiang immediately, please see, this is the imperial court seal that Marshal Xiang handed over to the lower officials as a certificate!"
