Chapter 127 – The Appearance of a Large Group of Idiots
by Jessie@AFNCCThe so-called trail access.
In reality, it was an extremely hidden stone crevice, covered by dense grass and trees inside and out, connecting the Great Qian to the border.
This is not a classified passageway of the Ting Yuan Royal Palace.
Much less a hidden passageway containing secrets.
Its nature, its birth, is a mere coincidence of nature.
Wu Ying Xue had discovered the existence of this stone crevice passageway by chance, and she wasn’t the only one who knew about it; many of the townspeople near the stone peaks were aware of it.
It’s just that no one is going to spread it around.
All of them hide it away.
But now.
Rampant blood, broken and falling flesh, mangled bones, and sparse entrails.
The scene in front of him seemed as if hell had descended, there were many bloody traces spread all around, and the grass and trees that were originally used to cover the passageway were all stained black and red with blood.
Chilling.
“What the hell, what the hell is going on!?”
Wu Ying Xue’s pupils contracted, the hand holding the lance trembled slightly, it wasn’t fear, but anger.
She could hardly imagine.
What had happened here and how many people had died to make this such a horrible sight.
“Calm down, Yingxue.”
Department Xu reached out his palm and put it on Wu Ying Xue’s shoulder, stopping her from trying to rush into the stone crevice.
The innate realm of the martial arts heavenly eye, so that he “see” more, difficult to observe the details, he can be sure, behind the passage is not safe.
……
You’ve seen hell on earth
[The cracks in the rocky paths, which you saw as an escape route and which should have been safe, are unusually strewn with dead bodies and broken limbs.]
[You’re keenly aware that something has happened here]
[You stopped the girl and the people from trying to get into the crevice.]
[You had people spread out, searching for any clues that might be there, and soon, someone found signs of hiding in the snow]
[You feel your way along the signs, and in a crypt not far from a rocky crevice, you find two men in hiding, who look particularly frightened at the sight of your approach]
[You calm down and bring out the demon jerky]
[Your soothing has been effective, and the two men are calming down.]
[You begin to ask questions about who they are and if they know about the change at the rock crevice]
[They cry and tell you that they come from Daqian villages on the other side of the rock crevice, and that unlike your actions in trying to flee the border, they long to leave Daqian]
“At this time, Qianlong has been in turmoil for a long time.
[High taxes, rebellions, and harsh penalties have devastated every ordinary person who longs for peace.]
[The villagers, unable to sustain themselves in their panic, finally decided collectively to leave Daqian and flee to this dangerous border, which is just as brutal, but without too many corrupt officials.]
[Just such an action was soon discovered by the Daqian Border Army]
[On the other side of the rocky crevice, blocked and guarded by the army, the villagers who tried to escape were driven by swords and thrown to the border, crashing headlong into the winter border, where the tide of demons was in full swing.]
“By now, you’re the only two people left in this village.
Angry?
Angry?
Unhappy?
None of them seem to be.
After hearing the two men’s sobbing replies, System Xu slowly walked out of the crypt where they were hiding.
Snowflakes are flying and cold winds are howling.
Xu System’s expression was very calm, seemingly not fluctuating at all, but that wasn’t the case, and at the heart chambers, the blazing heart was beating stronger than ever.
It showed, how his heart was raging.
“Demons on the border are eating people.”
“The demons of Daqian, too, are eating people.”
“There is no place in this world, this world, where cannibalism is not possible.”
Xu System closed his eyes and fell silent for a long time before reopening them.
The surging heart continued to surge, the fervor originating from a martial artist urging System Xu to do something, but he chose to remain calm.
The situation is too bad now.
You can’t solve a problem with just a fit of rage.
“Sir, what should we do next?” , the young girl in red and white robes walked up, her face full of confusion.
Behind her were the people of Qingniu Town with the same blank expression, as well as the people of the different towns that had chosen to follow them along the way.
The rock crevice is no longer passable.
The other end is blocked by border troops.
With such a narrow passageway, there wasn’t even room to dodge once you entered.
There is no doubt that the rock crevice is absolutely inaccessible.
“Next ……”
In the wind and snow, Xu System’s eyes turned, sweeping over the godless, numb faces, and as he swept, those faces would turn with him.
The people living on the border have only two paths.
One was to stay at the border, choosing to face the great demons of the innate realm directly, facing the endless waves of demons in the 100,000 Mountains.
The second is to go through the border, with those who wear armor and hold the blade of the border army as the enemy, and face the once formidable “big man”.
The Xu system was silent.
Neither path is good.
Whichever way you go, someone is destined to bleed and someone is destined to die.
If you have to choose, it’s better to go hard over the edge.
In the recent period of time, with the rebellions within the Great Qian rising, the number of border troops had been moved away from many, unlike the black and white as before.
And.
The number of border troops was limited, unlike the demons of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, which were so numerous that one could feel as desperate as possible.
“But, I can’t do it alone, and adding Ying Xue isn’t enough either.”
“With my current strength, I am far from being able to fight an army with one.”
“The best way to defeat an army is with another army.”
The Xu system was a little hesitant.
The people followed him to stay alive.
But now, ask them to fight the Borderers, will they still be willing?
Without hiding his thoughts, Department Xu declared them openly and honestly to everyone, and much to his surprise, no one chose to leave after hearing them.
Why is that?
“Brother Xu, we no longer have a home.”
The simple man who stepped out of the crowd told the real reason.
Did the people of Qingniu Town, the people of other towns, follow Department Xu because he possessed an unimaginable charisma?
The Xu system itself felt that it mostly wasn’t.
Nor has he ever said anything to coax the mind.
The reason why people stood here and chose to follow the Xu system was so simple as to be silent.
Home is gone.
No food.
In this tide of demons, many had already died of heart and become walking corpses, but they were willing to follow the Xu system to find that way forward to continue living.
“Come with me, then.”
The wind stopped, the snow stagnated, and Xu System smiled as he raised his longsword high.
……
[A sudden change in the rock crevice interrupts your original plan]
[You realize that if you want people to continue to survive, the only way is to force your way through and into the interior of Daqian]
[If we stay on the border, people will either be eaten by demons or freeze to death in the winter.]
“You have no other way out.
“The only way to fight for the future is with your life.
[You laughed out loud and taught everyone Silly Kung Fu]
