Not understanding the situation, Zhou Sen did not dare to act rashly. He and Olin lay down in the bushes to watch the surrounding environment.
This is an empty wasteland with no towering trees. The tallest bushes are only about two meters tall. There are weathered rocks and gravel everywhere, forming patches of bare ground without any grass.
The two moved a certain distance under the cover of bushes and found that this was a typical gully plain. Every once in a while, there would be deep ditches covered with weeds. The deep ditches were between three and five meters deep.
It is about one meter shallow and should have been washed away by floods during the rainy season.
Why is it so quiet here?
Why are there no animals?
Why are there no birds in the sky?
Zhou Sen found a lot of animal feces around, and many of them were still fresh, and the plants also showed signs of being eaten by animals, which shows that there is not no life activity here.
Why do they suddenly disappear?
Suddenly, a group of people appeared in the distance, a huge group of people, all over the mountains and plains, walking in the direction of Zhou Sen.
What kind of people are these?
Zhou Sen lay down in the bushes and observed. He found that this group of people should be fleeing. They were just walking in one direction and had no organization or discipline. Moreover, they were dragging their children with them, and they all carried some quilts and the like.
personal belongings and farm tools, and even some people leading some large animals.
"Dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong..."
"Woooo..."
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
…
Just when Zhou Sen and Aolin were confused, suddenly, earth-shattering drums and passionate horns sounded in the distant wilderness, followed immediately by another burst of shouts of killing that resounded through the sky.
A cavalry suddenly appeared on the originally quiet wasteland and rushed towards the huge crowd. Behind the cavalry was a group of infantry. At this moment, Zhou Sen suddenly understood the reason why nothing was seen in the wasteland. It was obvious that
, some animals were scared away by this army before.
Compared with the huge group of refugees, the number of this army is very small. The number is less than one-tenth of the number of refugees. However, they are well-equipped and well-trained. They first used a small number of cavalry to attack the refugees.
After dispersing the refugees, they then began to form a team to hunt down the refugees unscrupulously.
Tigers among sheep!
Watching the heads of the refugees being chopped off one by one, Zhou Sen's heart was bleeding. He found that in the face of the brutal army's sniper killing, none of these refugees other than wailing and running away, actually no one dared to resist.
Many refugees held farm tools in their hands, but even when a knife hit their necks, they did not raise their farm tools to resist...
…
Orin was very regretful because she didn't have the equipment to record this bloody scene.
The killing lasted for about half an hour, and the troops began to gather women, children and animals together.
Zhou Sen discovered that this army's hunting was extremely targeted, mainly killing adult men and the elderly. After half an hour of rampage, the wasteland was already covered with blood and corpses.
The group of people who were taken away were young women and children.
All around, there were refugees fleeing in all directions.
Obviously, the army also knew that the number of refugees was too large, and had no intention of killing the refugees. After all, with such a huge number, even standing still and letting them kill would be very tiring, not to mention that these refugees would keep coming.
Escape for your life...
…
"Peng!" A young man panicked and fell into the ravine where Zhou Sen and Olin were hiding. Zhou Sen directly covered the young man's mouth with his hand, and then used his body to tightly control the young man.
"Woo..." The young man struggled desperately.
"Don't scream!"
Zhou Sen's sharp Tang Dao was placed on the young man's neck. The young man's voice stopped suddenly and he looked at Zhou Sen with a horrified expression.
"We are friends. As long as you don't scream and alert the soldiers, I will let you go." Zhou Sen was afraid that the young man's struggle would alert the soldiers, so he could only comfort him first.
"Woooo..." The young man nodded quickly.
"What happened? Speak slowly!" Zhou Sen asked while paying close attention to the movements of the army. He wanted to ensure that the other party would not come in this direction. From the current point of view, their position is safe because,
Their current position is at a high place, while the direction the army is leaving is at a low place.
"They took over our land, and then everyone fled... Wuwu..." The young man couldn't help sobbing after saying a few words, wiping his tears.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it for now." Zhou Sen was afraid that the young man would not be able to control his emotions and cry loudly, attracting the soldiers, so he quickly stopped him from continuing.
Zhou Sen stared at the army. At this time, the army was driving the women and children together and began to collect the property abandoned by the refugees. Because of the lack of manpower and the large number of people they captured, they did not expand the search area.
After just cleaning the core area, they drove away the women, children and livestock.
Zhou Sen watched the army leave in a mighty manner, and at this time, he was surrounded by trembling refugees...
…
Seeing the army plundering a much larger population and leaving in a mighty manner, Zhou Sen and Olin felt as if they were watching a holographic movie, as if they had returned to ancient times.
Ancient times.
wrong!
Thinking of ancient times, Zhou Sen suddenly discovered that the styles of human clothing here are similar to those in the five star regions. There are even many industrial products. For example, some people wear slippers made of plastic. The boy next to him is wearing
A pair of worn sneakers and a pair of dirty jeans.
What the hell is going on?
Since there are industrial products, why are the weapons used by that army still cold weapons?
Zhou Sen's mind was filled with questions.
According to the God of Death, this is the place of death, but as of now, this so-called place of death is no different from the cold weapon age of mankind in the ancient earth period.
The only thing Zhou Sen couldn't understand was why these people still had some modern technology products on them?
"What's your name?" Zhou Sen asked the boy next to him.
"Yang Jiong."
"Where did your shoes come from?" Zhou Sen looked down at the pair of tattered sneakers and jeans on the boy's feet.
"I picked it up." The young man's face turned red.
"Picked it up?"
"Yes, there are many things in the old capital. We poor people will go to the old capital to look for daily necessities. If we are lucky, we will find some clothes, shoes and so on."
"Where is the old capital?"
"You can see the old capital after climbing over that mountain." The young man stuck his head out and glanced in the direction where the soldiers left, and then pointed to a high mountain road in the distance.
"Can you take me to see it?"
"That place is very dangerous now. There are many headhunters operating there." The young man shook his head quickly.
"Okay. Can we see the old capital just by climbing over that mountain?" Zhou Sen asked.
