"Guard the surrounding area. No one is allowed to approach within a hundred feet. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

Yang Kaishan's emotions came and went quickly. He quickly put away his little girlish attitude and said in a deep voice, full of murderous aura.

The words were meant for the surrounding veterans and could not be spread beyond this small courtyard.

He was still an old farmer before, but now he straightened his spine and fought with iron and blood, like a sword unsheathed, making people dare not look directly at him.

"promise!"

A group of 'old men' around them knelt down on one knee and shouted loudly. When they stood up, they straightened their backs and their eyes were sharp. They didn't look like they were caring for their old age. They were clearly a group of ferocious beasts that chose people to eat after waking up.

To be honest, facing such a group of 'old people', Yun Jing was a little frightened. It seemed as if there was a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood under their feet. The aura of a life-long battle really made people's scalp numb.

They are veterans of many battles and are proficient in killing methods. I am afraid that years of hard work have not only not made the sharp blades in their hands dusty, but have actually polished them even sharper.

A group of killers, I am afraid that facing enemies of the same level, they can cut people like vegetables. Just facing their momentum honed from hundreds of battles, the enemy will be defeated by three points!

"Master Yun, please take a seat." Yang Kaishan turned back and looked at Yun Jingdao.

He looked at Yunjing with scrutiny, and did not look at him differently because the eldest princess was carrying a jade pendant. They had been waiting for decades to be loyal to Dali, loyal to this country, and respectful to the royal family. But Yunjing, a mere young man, was not enough.

to get them to put down their posture.

Yunjing cupped his hands and said: "General, you're welcome."

The two parties sat down, and although they were in a small farmyard, Yunjing felt like he was in a Chinese military camp.

Fortunately, Pei Mo's gang didn't come here, otherwise they would have been chopped into pieces by these veterans if they met...

Yang Kaishan sat down with a golden sword, took a deep breath, and asked Yun Jing: "Master Yun, I have been away from the world for decades and isolated from the world. What is happening to the outside world now? Is our family and country safe?"

The first thing he asked was that he cared about his family and country, not about being forgotten by the world. Yunjing felt sad because Dali had lost a lot of money to them.

Thoughts flashed in his mind, Yun Jing said: "The family and the country are here now, so that General Yang can know that ten years ago, farmyard manure appeared in the border areas. The dynasty vigorously promoted it, and the farming methods were different from those in the past. Now if there is no disaster, the people will

After a year of hard work, grain production has increased by more than 30%. Now the people can barely have enough to eat. In the past, not even one out of ten people died of starvation!"

Hearing this, Yang Kaishan, including the veterans who listened with their ears pricked up, were all shocked and extremely excited.

"Okay, okay, okay, the people have food in their bellies and grain in their barns. This is a prosperous age. We never dared to think about it, but now it has actually come true. God bless the great separation," Yang Kaishan said excitedly, and immediately gestured to Yun

The scene continues.

In this era, people can barely eat enough and fewer people die of starvation. This is a rare and prosperous era, and we dare not expect too much.

Then Yunjing talked about some changes in the situation over the years, such as the layout of the court in the years after the new emperor ascended the throne after they came here, etc. Then the conversation changed and he said in a deep voice: "Many years ago, Master Chen was murdered and fell by the design of the Dajiang Dynasty. I

Da Li sent troops to the Northern Expedition, many years have passed, and now the war is still going on!"

As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the small courtyard dropped by more than ten degrees out of thin air.

Yang Kaishan snorted coldly, and the whole courtyard trembled. He said in a cold voice: "The traitor in Dajiang deserves to be punished. Although we have been dead for decades, our sword is still young. One day, we will definitely kill him with his head rolling!"

"

The surging killing intent was like a knife blade, and Yunjing's skin felt the stinging pain like a knife cutting it. Especially the anger on these veterans, as if the scorching sun was about to burn the world, which frightened Yunjing.

After the words fell, Yang Kaishan restrained his aura. After understanding a little about the changes in the outside world, he looked at Yun Jing expectantly and asked: "Did Mr. Yun come with the imperial edict?"

Opening his mouth, Yun Jing shook his head and said helplessly: "No."

Frowning, Yang Kaishan asked again: "Can I carry the cabinet transfer order?"

"No," Yun Jing shook his head again, feeling a little depressed.

The eyes of Yang Kaishan and the surrounding veterans were somewhat sad, and he continued to ask: "Do you have any documents from the Ministry of War?"

"Still not", Yunjing said in a complicated tone, not even daring to look at the other person's eyes.

Their expressions were already a little bitter, but Yang Kaishan refused to give up and said: "Master Yun, does he have an oral order from the emperor? Or does the eldest princess express his will?"

Sighing in his heart, Yun Jing said: "General, please forgive me, I came here by chance and did not come with any orders."

"Is that so..." Yang Kaishan murmured, his tone and expression extremely bitter. He probably already knew that he and others had been forgotten by the outside world.

Decades of persistence have resulted in such a result, which is a shock that ordinary people cannot understand.

However, they have persevered for decades. They have waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and their minds are so firm that they have not wavered in the slightest!

With thoughts flickering in his mind, Yang Kaishan examined Yun Jing and said: "I don't care how you got the eldest princess's belongings, nor what your status is. There is no imperial edict, no royal decree, no cabinet order, no military documents, just rely on the eldest princess's possessions.

We will not give you the things that the princess carries with you, and our responsibilities are confidential, so we cannot let you go. Mr. Yun, do you understand what I mean?"

"General, you have been here for decades. Things have changed in the outside world. I am still young. I don't know what happened back then, which is why you have been here forever without anyone caring about you. Moreover, I know that you are here and you still have some connections outside. If

If you leave, you will definitely be able to report it to Heaven, and at that time there will be an order from the court to reassure the troops." Yun Jing thought for a while and said.

Shaking his head, Yang Kaishan said in a deep voice: "Master Yun, what I can tell you is that when we were ordered to escort something, the person was there but the person was missing. Apart from the documents from the Ministry of War, there were only imperial decrees and cabinet transfer orders.

Only with the royal edict can we direct our next actions. The things we protect, including our movements, are related to confidentiality and must not be leaked at all. Therefore, you do not have the documents of the Ministry of War, the imperial edict of the Tianjia, and the third one.

There is no royal decree in the cabinet transfer order. Our mission is top priority and we dare not relax at all to reveal our whereabouts. Therefore, even if you have the eldest princess’ belongings, you only represent an individual. We cannot let you go. If you stay, we will not

This is the maximum I can do to embarrass you!"

"This..." Yunjing was confused.

What kind of thing is this? They have been holding on for decades. The mission is confidential and cannot be leaked at all, so they will not let any leaks happen, and they will not let anyone go.

The problem is that this place is deep in the center of the illusion, isolated from the world. People from outside cannot come in. They have been forgotten by the world. No one will care about them. No one can get out. The news cannot be passed to the court. The court cannot

Knowing them, of course it is impossible to issue an order. This is an endless cycle...

Yunjing struggled: "What should I do?"

"Wait, wait for the order to be issued. Mr. Yun may think that I am stubborn, but military orders are military orders, and there is no room for error. Unless a new military order is issued, you can only wait, and you will have to wait for eternity." Yang Kaishan

Take a deep breath.

Yun Jing understood what he meant. In a word, there was absolutely no possibility of letting him go except waiting for new military orders to be issued, because that would probably leak the secret.

This is very difficult to do.

"What if, this junior said, what if this junior insists on leaving?" Yunjing thought for a while and said.

Yang Kaishan said: "I understand what Mr. Yun means. You want to leave before you can notify the court to issue an order to break the current deadlock. But let's not talk about whether you can leave the illusion. If you insist on leaving, in order to prevent leaks

, we will kill you, I know this is very contradictory and entangled, but it is the fact, it is our duty!"

Thoughts flashed in his mind, Yun Jing asked again: "What if I leave quietly? And then notify the court to bring the transfer order, what will the general do?"

Frowning, Yang Kaishan said: "If you dare to leave, we will spare no effort to kill you. I know Mr. Yun is doing it for our own good, but please don't try it easily. You will really die. However, if Mr. Yun really

They can leave under our siege and bring new orders. At that time, we can only obey the new orders."

That's okay. Yunjing is confident that it's easy to leave.

Seeing his relaxed expression, Yang Kaishan warned seriously: "Master Yun, really, I understand your thoughts, but I still want to advise you not to try it easily, you only have one life!"

"Junior understands," Yunjing nodded seriously.

Shaking his head, Yang Kaishan also saw that Yun Jing did not listen to what he said, but he had already said what needed to be said. If Yun Jing insisted on causing trouble, he would really not be merciful in order to prevent the news from leaking.

Then he said: "Master Yun, you can live here peacefully and don't mess around. By the way, don't reveal our identities to others. Do you understand what I mean? I don't care if they are

We have guessed our identities, but our identities are still confidential. Next, I will mark a piece of land for you and arrange a place to live. Just wait and see."

He had already issued an order to expel guests, but Yunjing did not leave. Instead, he thought for a while and said, "General, I have no intention of inquiring into the military situation, but General, can you tell me how you got here? How have you been living these years?

If it’s not convenient to say it, forget it.”

Yang Kaishan thought for a while and said: "Since Mr. Yun wants to know, there is nothing wrong with you, so I will tell you what I can tell you. Back then..."

Under his narration, Yunjing understood a little bit about their experiences.

At that time, they, the border army, were guarding the border as usual. One day, they suddenly received an order saying that there was a fear of war and asked them to be on guard. They didn't know the reason and just obeyed the order.

Not long after they received the order, the Dali Dynasty and the Dajiang Dynasty suddenly made large-scale military mobilizations. They still didn't know the reason, but they had a premonition that a war was about to happen.

Sure enough, the two sides started a war out of nowhere. At that time, the total number of people participating in the war between the two countries was four to five million!

That war was completely incomprehensible to the people at the bottom.

When the war reached a certain level, Yang Kaishan and his fellow veterans who guarded the border suddenly received an order to escort something back to the country and go to Luocao Slope. When the time came, there would be someone there with the order to receive the items they escorted.

At that time, the order was issued in a hurry. They only told them not to ask what it was and to deliver it safely. Moreover, the order said that the things being escorted were of great importance and there was no room for error. Even if they all died, nothing could go wrong and they could not tell anyone.

Anyone outside their army is escorting things secretly. Military orders are as high as the mountain, and anyone who disobeys them will be killed without mercy!

Then he inexplicably escorted something back home under the cover of friendly forces and headed straight to Luocao Slope.

As a result, after they arrived at Luocao Slope, no one came to pick them up...

After waiting for several days, no one came. In order to protect the things they were escorting, they had to find a secret place to wait, and then they came to this illusion by some strange combination of circumstances.

The illusion is so evil that once they enter, they cannot get out.

At that time, there were three thousand people in their border army, and each one of them was a veteran of hundreds of battles. But after entering the illusion, in that weird illusion, they died one after another, and finally they were able to pass through the illusion and come here.

There are only a few thousand people in the central blank area.

Yang Kaishan said that at that time, so many of them entered the illusion. In order to avoid being separated, they came up with a stupid way to connect everyone with ropes. Even so, most of them were still killed or injured in the strange illusion.

After the remaining more than a thousand people came here through the illusion area, they stationed themselves and continued to protect the escorts and waited for someone to come to meet them.
To be continued...
