Chapter 127 A Bunch of Fools Appear

The so-called path passage.

In fact, it is an extremely hidden stone crack, covered by dense vegetation inside and outside, connecting Dagan and the border.

This is not a secret passage of Dingyuan Palace.

It is not a hidden passage containing secrets.

Its essence and birth are just a coincidence of nature.

Wu Yingxue discovered the existence of this stone crack passage by chance. She is not the only one who knows about it. Many villagers near the stone crack know about it.

But no one will spread it.

They all hide it.

But now.

The blood is flowing freely, the broken and falling flesh, the broken bones, and the rotten internal organs.

The scene in front of her is like hell, with many bloody traces all around, and the vegetation that was originally used to cover the passage is all stained black and red by blood.

It's chilling.

"What on earth happened!?"

Wu Yingxue's pupils contracted, and the hand holding the spear trembled slightly. It was not fear, but anger.

She couldn't imagine it.

What happened here, and how many people died, to have such a horrific scene.

"Calm down, Yingxue."

Xu Xi stretched out his hand and placed it on Wu Yingxue's shoulder, stopping her from rushing into the crevice.

The innate realm of martial arts eyes allowed him to "see" more details that were difficult to observe. He was sure that the back of the passage was not safe.

...

[You see a hellish scene on earth]

[The stone path that you originally regarded as an escape route and should have been extremely safe is unusually full of dead bodies and broken limbs]

[You keenly sensed that something had happened here]

[You stopped the girl and the people from entering the stone crevice]

[You scattered people around and searched for possible clues. Soon, someone found signs of hiding in the snow]

[You followed the signs and found two people hiding in a cave not far from the crevice. They were particularly scared when they saw you coming]

[You patiently comforted them and took out the demon meat jerky]

[Your comfort was quite effective, and the two gradually calmed down]

[You began to ask about their identities, as And whether they know about the changes in the cracks]

[They cried and told you that they came from the village of Dagan on the other side of the cracks. Unlike your actions of fleeing the border, they longed to leave Dagan]

[At this time, Dagan was already in turmoil]

[High taxes, rebellions and harsh penalties deeply tortured every ordinary person who longed for peace]

[The villagers were unable to maintain their lives in fear, and finally decided to leave Dagan and flee to the dangerous border which was equally cruel but without too many corrupt officials]

[But such actions were soon discovered by the Dagan border troops]

[The other side of the cracks was blocked and guarded by the army, and the villagers who wanted to escape were driven to the border by swords and rushed into the winter border where the demon tide was at its peak]

[At this point, only the two people in front of you were left in the huge village]

Are you angry?

Are you angry?

Are you unwilling?

It seems that none of them.

After listening to the crying answers of the two people, Xu Xi slowly walked out of the cave where they were hiding.

Snowflakes were flying and the cold wind was howling.

Xu Xi's expression was very calm, seemingly without any fluctuations, but that was not the case. In his heart, his fiery heart was beating more strongly than before.

It showed how turbulent his heart was.

"The demons on the border are eating people."

"The demons in Dagan are also eating people."

"In this world, in this world, eating people is indispensable."

Xu Xi closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time before reopening them.

His surging emotions kept surging, coming from the blood of the warriors, urging Xu Xi to do something, but he chose to be calm.

The current situation is too bad.

Anger alone cannot solve the problem.

"Sir, what should we do next?" The girl in red and white robes came over, her face full of confusion.

Behind her were the people of Qingniu Town who also had confused expressions, as well as the people of different towns who chose to follow them along the way.

The crack in the stone was no longer passable.

There was a border army blockade at the other end.

Once you enter such a narrow passage, there is no room to dodge.

There is no doubt that the cracks in the rocks cannot be entered.

"Next step..."

In the wind and snow, Xu Xi's eyes turned and swept across those dull and numb faces. As he swept, those faces would also turn.

There are only two paths for the people living on the border.

One is to stay on the border and choose to face the great demons in the innate realm and the endless waves of demons in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The second is to force through the border and fight against those armored and bladed border troops, and face the once majestic "big men".

Xu Xi was silent.

Both paths are not easy to take.

No matter which one you take, someone is destined to bleed and someone will die.

If you have to choose, it would be better to force through the border.

Recently, with the rebellion in Dagan, the number of border troops has been transferred a lot, not as dark as before.

Moreover.

The number of border troops is limited, unlike the demons in the Ten Thousand Mountains, which are so numerous that people feel desperate.

"But, I can't do it alone, and even with Yingxue, it's not enough."

"With my current strength, I am far from being able to defeat the enemy alone."

"The best way to defeat an army is to use another army."

Xu Xi hesitated.

The people followed him to survive.

But now, if they were asked to fight the border troops, would they still be willing?

Xu Xi did not hide his thoughts and announced them to everyone frankly. Surprisingly, no one chose to leave after listening.

Why is this?

"Brother Xu, we no longer have a home."

The honest man who walked out of the crowd told the real reason.

The people of Qingniu Town and other towns followed Xu Xi because Xu Xi had an unimaginable personality charm?

Xu Xi himself thought it was probably not.

He never said words to coax people's minds.

The reason why people stood here and chose to follow Xu Xi was so simple that it made people silent.

Home was gone.

No food to eat.

In this demon tide, many people have died and become zombies, but they are willing to follow Xu Xi to find the way to continue living.

"Then, follow me."

The wind stopped, the snow stagnated, Xu Xi smiled and raised his long sword.

...

[The sudden change in the cracks interrupted your original plan]

[You realized that if you want people to survive, the only way is to force your way through and enter the interior of Dagan]

[If you continue to stay at the border, people will either be eaten by demons or frozen to death in the cold winter]

[You have no other way out]

[You can only fight for the future with your life]

[You laughed and taught everyone the fool's skill]
