Volume 1: Life as a Hero Chapter 1: How easy life is

Next Chapter

The moment he walked out of prison, He Yi's eyes, which had been clouded for several years, finally had a trace of clarity.

The moment he was sent to death row by stealing his life, he never thought that he would come out alive.

At this moment, he felt like he had been reborn.

Even though the sun was scorching and dazzling, he still looked directly at the blue sky and carefully combed his scattered hair for a long time.

......

The prisoners who were released together with He Yi were about 100 people, and the reason for their release is still unknown.

On the good side, maybe someone paid a lot of money to buy some prisoners to be slaves, and at worst, it is possible for the two armies to face each other and let the prisoners serve as cannon fodder.

Anyway, nothing good is right...

Now that immortals are in charge, secular mortals are just dogs, not to mention some death row prisoners.

"Look at it! Don't go yet!"

He Yi was pushed forward by the jailer behind him, and staggered forward a few steps, leaving a few messy stains on the blue brick road covered with a thin layer of snow and frost.

He couldn't help but look back at the tall and terrifying cliff prison in the wind and snow, and under the blue-black cliff plaque, there were death row inmates who came out like black ant colonies.

After a period of shoving, seven or eight huge carriages were slowly pulled over, and the smell of meat could be smelled from afar, and the vehicles stopped in front of the prisoners, and the officer used his knife to pick open the tarpaulin covering them, and the cars were indeed full of greasy animal meat.

Immediately after, He Yi heard countless sounds of swallowing saliva.

He Yi didn't hold back himself, swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, he hadn't eaten meat for a long, long time.

......

"You guys!"

The officer's leader let out a loud shout, and a whip struck a roasted beast's leg, sending oil stars flying everywhere.

"Let me go to eat! Let go of the drink! When I finish eating, I will go to the battlefield! If I die, I will be a martyr! If I live, then I will be free! But I will first say ugly things first! If anyone dares to escape, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The officer said, and took off the big sword behind his back, which was a magic weapon blessed by the spell of the "immortal", and it was extremely powerful, and the blade of the sword flashed with scorching fire, and when it slammed into the ground, it rumbled into a large crater, and the rubble was scattered everywhere.

"Cut, talk so much nonsense, and you can't feed us in the end?"

"If you have something to say, let go of a fart!

“......”

Such a move has undoubtedly been looked down upon by many death row inmates.

The people who can stand here at this time are all ruthless people, and before they were imprisoned, they basically lived a life of licking blood from the knife edge, and naturally they were not afraid of threats.

As for going to the battlefield to be cannon fodder, these people have no objection, even if there is only a 1 in 1,000 chance of surviving, but at least it is a way to live?

The officer saw that his shock was fruitless, but he was not angry, smiled cruelly, and then waved his big hand - "Eat!"

With the officer's permission, one prisoner after another rushed into the wagon laden with animal flesh in a frenzied manner, savagely tearing and devouring like a hungry herd.

After a full meal, the soldiers escorted the prisoners out of the city and headed north.

This walk is more than ten days.

The Far North is bitter and cold, and after passing through a few small towns, only the endless wilderness of snow-capped mountains remains.

As we continued to go deeper, the faces of the officers became more and more solemn, while the faces of the prisoners were full of confusion.

Is there a battlefield in this kind of place?

Barren mountains and snowy mountains, cold and biting, such a lifeless place, I don't know what kind of enemy there will be?

The defeated rebels of the Old Country, the bloody and powerful barbarians, or the Icefield Snow Monsters?

No one knows what they're up against.

But from this moment on, everyone's fate has been arranged, and all they need to do is follow the route marked on the map in the officer's hand and go all the way.

The more than 100 prisoners were divided into more than 10 teams by the officers, and three non-commissioned officers guarded a team, forming a long line and walking on foot in the vast snow.

Soon after, a strong wind rose in the snow, and the prisoners, unable to stand the erosion of the wind and snow, began to complain on a large scale, and even worse, directly ignored the orders of the officers, stopped a carriage full of meat, and snatched food, which almost turned into a riot.

The weather seemed to be getting colder and colder, and the leading officer had no choice but to take advantage of the prisoners' temperament and order to camp in place and prepare for the night.

The heavy snow is flying, the splendor is sprinkled, and the sky is high and the clouds are thick, there is a feeling of depression and grandeur.

If it were He Yi in the past, in the face of such a scene, he would definitely be full of interest and chant a song "Walking in the Snow" to help the fun, but now, he is just walking in a hidden manner and is lifeless.

"It's cold..."

The farther north he went, the more severe the cold air became, and after more than ten days, even He Yi felt very painful.

He wrapped the thin shirt on his body tightly, and looked at the people around him expressionlessly, chopping wood for chopping wood, and lighting a fire for fire, but he couldn't raise his interest at all.

Exhale a breath of hot air and blow it in the palm of your hand, and after a short warm temperature, it will be a cold hoarfrost.

He Yi looked at it in a daze, and shook off the white frost very helplessly, and was very happy.

Once famous, the remaining sins will last for a thousand years.

From the initial response to the call to the current death row prisoner, He Yi has experienced the biggest ups and downs in his life, and this situation makes his heart like a pool of stagnant water, and there are no more waves.

"How easy is life? Sweet is not there because the bitterness has not been enough. Don't be discouraged, only by living can there be hope, think more, do more..."Before he was imprisoned, his father said such a thing to him, and then died generously.

He Yi was indignant at the beginning, and he was also ashamed of his reluctance to survive, but now he gradually understands that sometimes it takes more courage to live than to die.

He reached into his arms, took out a pendant with black and red beads, spread it in the palm of his hand and stared at it quietly.

This is the last relic left to him by his father.

"In any case, live, think more, do more. ”

He Yi understands that no matter what, to live.

Then think more, do more...

......

"Boy, go chop some firewood and warm up the big guys. You're all busy, and you're lazy alone, doesn't seem to make sense?" a sudden voice interrupted He Yi's thoughts.

He Yi raised his head slightly and glanced at the man with a hollow gaze, but he didn't speak, just lowered his head silently.

This person is the "big brother" of their ten-person team.

At first, there were only two prisoners in the team who called him that, but he gradually became the big brother of the ten-man team.

Because these three people are a group, and the remaining few people are scattered, and there are no other groups among these people to choose from, it is inevitable that they will merge with each other.

Because the weak will always be swallowed up by the fusion of the strong.

Although, He Yi doesn't think so.

"Hey, are you dumb or deaf? Can't hear your eldest brother, hurry up and get up and work!" The other two attendants walked over and looked He Yi up and down, very dissatisfied with He Yi's attitude of ignorance.

Since he is a "big brother", it is natural to enjoy the treatment of a big brother, beckoning his subordinates to work and enjoying his success, this is the treatment that a "big brother" should have.

And from the very beginning, these people all decided that He Yi was the best one to bully.

Because He Yi always walks at the end of the line, he doesn't like to be with people, and even so withdrawn that he never talks to people, and often lowers his head and doesn't dare to look at people...

Such a person is a soft egg nine out of nine.

"Others make fires, others make their own heat, I don't make fires, I don't keep warm. He Yizheng lowered his head and thought about his thoughts, and was suddenly disturbed, so he hurriedly put the pendant back away, and then frowned in disgust.

He didn't have a good impression of these three commanding guys, so naturally he wouldn't give a face.

Hearing He Yi say this, the "big brother's" face turned cold on the spot.

"Brother, it's very cold here at night, maybe there are man-eating beasts, if you let the beasts bite or bite to death, don't cry out!" one of them threatened.

"So what?" He Yi raised his head and glanced at the man expressionlessly.

After a short eye contact with He Yi, the man chuckled in his heart, but he first avoided He Yi's gaze, turned his face to the side, and felt a little hairy in his heart.

That look is so weird, unwavering, heartless.

Those completely out-of-focus eyes look at you, but they don't look like they're looking at you.

How can I say it, it's like a dead man, looking at another dead person...

"So, now you go and chop wood to make a fire, and serve our eldest brother comfortably, but I can keep you safe all night. The other saw that his companion was a little strange, and took over the conversation.

He Yi frowned and thought about it, and refused: "Don't go." ”

He is not afraid of offending these outlaws, there are more than a dozen officers patrolling here, who dares to openly cause trouble, I am afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around.

Besides, this barren mountain is full of unknowns and dangers, and there are unknown "enemies" who exist rashly.

The reason why He Yi kept his head down was because he was thinking about how to hide after nightfall.

Think more, do more, live... The teachings of the father dare not be forgotten.

"Boy, don't be ignorant!" The eldest brother almost had a seizure when he heard He Yi's refusal, and the two attendants saw the eldest brother's expression in their eyes, and they wanted to take He Yi down.

Just took a step forward when he was stopped by the big brother.

"Don't do it now, if there is a riot, I am afraid that the officers will not stop. The eldest brother said in a low voice, pointed his finger at He Yi's head, glanced at him gloomily, and left with two attendants.

He Yi looked thoughtfully at the backs of the three of them leaving, pulled out the dagger distributed by the soldiers from behind, and sharpened a short piece of wood one by one......
