Chapter 1: Desperate Survival

Next Chapter

In the cold winter, in the northern territory of this great Qianguo, the cold wind is howling, the snow is fluttering, and the snowflakes are like jade scales falling from the sky, which is beautiful. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If this kind of beautiful scenery is a poet of the Daqian Empire who is sentimental and sad here, he will definitely be full of poetry and singing.

But for the exiled prisoners who are struggling to walk in this world, this snowy beauty is like that femme fatale, which seems to be plump and moving, but it invisibly makes people lose their spirits.

In the heavy snow, there are countless sparse black spots that do not fit in with the surrounding white snow scene, looming and blurring.

As the snow slowly decreased, it finally revealed its true face, which turned out to be a burly sergeant in heavy armor and armed with sharp weapons, as well as a ragged prisoner.

The sergeants did not seem to have suffered much physical damage during the long march and in such bitter cold weather.

The breathing is still steady, the pace is steady and powerful, showing a strong physical fitness, and the first knight in green clothes and armor is even stronger, there seems to be an unknown energy within a meter around, and the snowflakes have already evaporated into gas before they come into contact, which is amazing.

The sergeants were strong and fearless of the cold, but the prisoners with shackles on their feet behind them seemed to be unable to withstand the might of heaven and earth, and fell one after another.

Seeing that several of the prisoners escorted had died, Cao, the logistics officer of the escort army, came to the Tsing Yi knight and bowed down and asked

"General Qiu Yi, the heavy snow this time is too tight, and most of these prisoners were rich and noble before, weak and weak, but now the situation has reached the limit, and ten people have died of cold. Keep going, there may be more prisoners who can't hold on, general, can we take a break."

When the Tsing Knight heard the death toll of the prisoner, his face did not change at all, as if the lives of ten people were just a number to him. After a few moments, the Tsing Knight finally spoke slowly

"Life or death aside, continue to move towards Dongping City. ”

The prisoner who was close to him heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but look depressed. He secretly scolded this man as a ruthless beast, and he had no mercy. Now there is still some distance from Dongping City, and how many people can reach such a march alive, even if they can survive it, it is just "just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den".

It turned out that this prisoner was also a low-level military attache of the Daqian Empire before, and knew that since the founding of the Daqian Empire, Dongping City had always been an important border town in the northern territory of the Daqian Empire, and it was also the first choice for exiled prisoners.

Just because it is located in the extreme north of the Great Qian, it is a bitter cold place outside the Saiwai, and there are frequent wars, there are no ordinary people willing to settle here.

Therefore the men who have committed serious sins are sent out to this land, and they are enslaved to the armoured men.

And the border army is stationed in this bitter cold place all the year round, and most of them are fierce people, and their temper can be described as brutal and abnormal.

Therefore, there are sometimes rumors of exiled prisoners being tortured and dying tragically, so it is often heard among the people of the empire that they are peaceful and change, which makes people shudder!

Thinking like this, the prisoner felt that his whole body was able to support his walking less and less, and the unusually cold weather and the fear of the ghost town of Dongping completely crushed his will to survive at this moment.

At this moment, his whole body was like a walking corpse, confused. This snowy scene seemed to him to be like a heavenly kingdom on earth, and his soul seemed to want to go out of his body to reach the Elysium.

A voice from the bottom of his heart told him to let go of everything, to give up the desire for life, and to no longer have to endure the pain of this mortal world. Apparently his consciousness had begun to slip away.

As if he had figured it out, the prisoner slowly fell down unsteadily, and there was no reaction for a while, and the sergeant next to him probed his snort with his fingers, and then felt his pulse, but he was completely out of life, but he didn't care anymore.

And the prisoner's body was covered in snow like this, and died like a mustard.

As more and more prisoners collapsed on this snowy field and never got up again. An atmosphere of utter gloom spread over the prisoner troops.

At this time, one of the prisoners' troops was particularly conspicuous, it turned out that the rest of them were already exhausted due to the continuous march and the lack of food supplies in this cold and snowy place, but this person was still in good spirits, exhaling like a sword, and obviously had good martial arts strength.

I saw that he was eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, a beard and muscles that were as hard as iron lumps, although he was a prisoner, his ragged clothes could not hide his fierce and fierce spirit.

It's just that at this time, he is holding a lean prisoner. The prisoner was yellow-skinned, and it was clear that his body had been severely damaged by the long exile.

As if he couldn't hide his anger in his heart, the lean man said to his beard

"Straight mother thief, I never thought that this group of freshly weaned cadres are more ruthless than our bandits, this eats so little and walks day and night like animals, I really treat us as livestock, I Li Datou will one day tie this group of animals to the big pillar, peel the skin and dig out the heart, and relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Who knew that the fierce man couldn't help but shake his head when he heard it

"You fool, you are a bird egg, your legs are unstable, what are you bragging, hurry up and adjust your breath according to the exercises taught by the Sprinkle family, don't die before you arrive in Dongping City, if you destroy the prestige of the Sprinkle family's evil tiger village, the Sprinkle family will beat you to hell."

Perhaps he was talking about his heart, and the bearded man's eyes dimmed suddenly, as if he thought of the brothers of the evil tiger village who died tragically one by one under the encirclement and suppression of the big cadre army, and at this moment he suddenly blamed himself very much.

And Li Datou saw the evil tiger village owner who used to swallow thousands of miles, and Li Xiong, who was known as the evil-faced King Kong in the green forest, actually showed a depressed look that he had never seen before.

I couldn't help but speak

"Big boss, you relax, I Li Datou will not die in front of these abusive officials, I still have to be happy with you. Let's reorganize the mountain race. What's more, Wei Guogong's pampered son can hold on, and I may not be able to lose the face of the evil tiger village. ”

Perhaps in order to encourage Li Xiong's fighting spirit, Li Datou rarely cheered up for a while. Li Xiong nodded slightly when he heard this.

Following the words spoken by the big head, he unconsciously looked at the thin young man of Wei Guofu mentioned in his words. The young man had a delicate face, and his height was more than eight feet, perhaps because of his long exile, and his body looked very thin, but his face was delicate, and he had an elegant temperament that could not be concealed.

At this time, the handsome young man seemed to be on the verge of collapse, his eyes had begun to be in a trance, but he still refused to give up like other prisoners, and his face was still full of determination.

The soles of the feet in the tattered shoes were almost frozen unconscious, and the flesh of the hands was torn apart from the cold.

It's just that the crumbling body still didn't fall down after all, the corners of his mouth muttered to himself, and he could only hear the faint voice "revenge...... Revenge...... I must not fall"

Dongping City morgue

The prisoner one-eyed Ah Si is cleaning up the corpses of prisoners sent by Dongping City as usual, it is said that he is a prisoner who has just been exiled to Dongping City recently, and he has already arrived in Dongping City, but because of the long-term wind and cold, he died of high fever.

One-eyed Ah Si is already in his fifties, and he used to be an elite soldier of the Dongping City Mountain Infantry Army, but because he had no eyes on the sword in the battlefield battle, one leg was injured on the battlefield and was disabled, and he was unwilling to leave Dongping City, so he did some simple work in this morgue.

Maybe he is old, and he is alone, the one-eyed Ah Si looked at the handsome young man in front of him who was only the age of his grandson, and couldn't help but sigh

"Hey, what a sin, it's a pity that your child has died at such a young age, but it may also be a relief compared to staying here and suffering. ”

Ah Si slowly cleaned up the corpse, covered it with a white cloth, he always liked to smoke some dry tobacco to refresh himself when he was old, maybe because of fatigue, he slowly leaned on the beams of the morgue and fell asleep.

And just when the one-eyed Ah Si was asleep, the white cloth of the corpse was constantly shaking, and it seemed to have undergone unpredictable changes.
