It's empty at noon.

Wang Changle was walking on the mountain path, but he couldn't feel any warmth.

Looking up at the gray sky, the bright sun high in the sky is being blocked by the foggy air.

The midday sun shines down, but its brightness cannot even match the afterglow of the setting sun. It is as dim and decaying as this world that is about to decline.

Going all the way down from the mountains, what he saw and heard gave him a better understanding of this world. It was even more barren than the world of 'Big Sword'.

Among the mountains and forests, a large number of fields were deserted, and a large number of cottages and houses were abandoned or turned into ruins.

I saw one or two ‘people’ here and there, but no, they couldn’t be called people anymore.

They were disheveled, naked, and rummaging for food in the fields on all fours. When they saw Wang Changle, their first reaction was not to be wary, but to attack.

They were attacked like wild beasts, but were knocked to the ground by Wang Changle. However, it seemed that they had lost their ability to speak and were unable to obtain more information since they had not communicated with others for a long time.

Those dim eyes were full of panic and madness. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call them savages.

Wang Changle let him go after communicating with him to no avail, but when he inspected the village houses, he found that these cottages were actually covered with a large number of sword marks.

"This sword mark..."

Wang Changle brushed the sword marks with his fingertips, thought for a moment, then put the wooden board with the most sword marks into the space, and then continued down the mountain.

The further you go down the mountain, the thinner the fog becomes, but the things you see are not much different.

Looking up at Nanguo Town where smoke was rising, Wang Changle couldn't help but quicken his pace.

There were no guards guarding the city gate. There was just a veteran sitting slumped inside the city gate, holding a dry cigarette in his hand and smoking it.

He didn't pay any attention to the pedestrians coming and going, but he kept the long sword in front of him at all times.

"Master Jun, may I ask...how to get to Yuelai Inn?"

As soon as Wang Changle took a step forward, the veteran immediately raised his sword and stared at him warily. He also muttered something, but the voice was too low for him to hear clearly.

He repeated it again, but the veteran still didn't respond. However, when he mentioned the words "Yelai Inn", a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that he could not communicate, Wang Changle was silent for a moment and walked towards the city.

After Wang Changle left, the veteran had a weird smile on his face and couldn't help licking his lips.

"Kekeke..."

……………

After walking around Nanguo Town, Wang Changle found that the situation in this town was not much better than that in the mountains and forests. It was extremely depressed.

There were only a few people walking on the street, and they were all in a hurry. Most of the houses had their doors closed, with yellow charms hanging on them or white cloths on them. There were more yellow paper money scattered on the ground than fallen leaves.

After walking for a long time, Wang Changle finally found Yuelai Inn.

"Hey, guest sir, how many of you...one of you, do you want to be the top one, or stay in the hotel?"

As soon as Wang Changle entered the inn, the waiter greeted him eagerly and looked behind him. Seeing no one behind him, his eyes moved slightly.

"No hurry, no hurry, two taels of pork head meat first! Then a pot of knives to cook."

Wang Changle stroked the bench, and the traces under the bench made him smile clearly.

He took out the two taels of broken silver he found in the cottage. He accepted the waiter's eagerness, but did not touch the tea on the table.

The waiter put away the money with gleaming eyes and headed towards the kitchen.

As soon as the waiter left, several men with long knives sat around him.

"Brother, where are you from? You are so kind-faced."

The leading man with a beard had greed in his eyes, especially when he saw Wang Changle's extraordinary clothes, his tone became a little more eager.

"Hey, isn't this Aru's distant cousin? He borrowed 1 silver from my family the year before last. Now that he has returned home in fine clothes, the debt should be repaid, right?"

The shoehorned boy in fishing clothes grabbed Wang Changle from the side with a hint of scorn in his tone.

"Gaba~"

"Ah, my hand, my hand~"

The shoehorned boy held his twisted and bent hands and backed away with a howl, big beads of sweat streaming down his face.

"Boy, you've gone too far!"

The bearded man immediately jumped up from the table, shaking the long knife in his hand, and slashed towards Wang Changle's neck.

With a flash of cold light, the man flew out, hitting countless tables and chairs, while the other man rushed out in panic.

"In broad daylight, it is really shameless to rob someone instead of blackmailing them."

Wang Changle shook the long knife in his hand and put it aside. This man looked fierce, but his strength was unexpectedly weak.

"Ah, my shop! Where did you come from, my new table and chairs! If you can't come up with 300 taels, don't even think about walking out of this door today."

The innkeeper and the waiter rushed out from the back hall, looked at the messy hall, and roared at Wang Changle with a red face.

"That's right, kid, you can't leave until you give me enough money!"

The waiter and several shop assistants had already expertly tied the door of the shop. They also held a long stick and a long knife in their hands. The style of the long knife was the same as the one on the table.

In such a scene, how could Wang Changle not understand what was going on?

In this troubled world, other people are hell!

However, this mode is suitable for him to do things.

"It turns out this is a black shop! First it was blackmail, then it was robbery, and now it's just robbery?"

As Wang Changle spoke, he clicked on the square table covered with knife marks, and the shop owner's face instantly turned the color of pig liver.

"What else are you looking at? Come on! Beat this bastard to death~"

The fat-headed and big-eared shop owner roared at the top of his lungs, and all the waiters came up after hearing the sound.

Wang Changle's face turned cold, and he waved the long knife in his hand, slashing out with cold light.

As blood spattered, several large heads rolled to the ground, and the store owner fell to his knees with a 'pop' in shock.

"Ah, hero, spare your life, hero, spare your life!"

The fat shop owner bowed his head immediately. He had been doing evil for many years, but he didn't know that he was kicking a brick wall.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! But he had read countless people, and he never expected that this middle-aged man who looked ordinary was actually a green forest hero, and he eliminated everyone present in a few seconds.

"No need to bow, I won't kill you! But..."

Wang Changle shook his sword and killed a dozen people, but there was no treasure chest left. Although these people knew some boxing and kicking skills, their fighting power was very weak.

Just as he was about to continue speaking, the door was kicked open.

"My lords, my lords, help me! Where are you going to run this time?"

The shop owner, who had just paid his respects, immediately rushed behind the soldiers, and his triumphant face was clearly evident.

"That thief, we are under the command of Mr. Hu, who patrols the city, why don't you just arrest him without restraint!"

When all the soldiers looked at the shop full of dead bodies on the ground, their expressions changed, and they all drew out their long knives and looked at Wang Changle with wary faces.

"Has Nanguo Town been taken over by the city patrol camp now? No wonder there is no one on duty outside the government office. If that's the case, please take me to meet the Master Hu you call me!"

Wang Changle threw the long knife to the ground as he spoke. The dangers in Nanguo Town are really intertwined.

No wonder the veterans at the city gate felt strange when they heard the words "Yelai Inn".

It has been more than three hours since he arrived, but the information and gains obtained are extremely limited, let alone the information about the City Without Tears.

But if we can get help from local officials, it might be a good breakthrough.

When the leading officers and soldiers saw Wang Changle discarding his long sword, most of the fear in their eyes immediately dissipated. However, seeing that this man was so calm and calm, they did not dare to take action again.

He led Wang Changle towards the military camp, and the store owner followed closely behind.

The sinister look in his eyes was like maggots attached to the bones, clinging to Wang Changle's body. Now he was determined to make this kid die a miserable death.

Wang Changle just smiled in response to the shop owner's cruelty, but the shop owner trembled all over.

This man's eyes are so cold!

The group of people crossed the street and entered the government office. The armor-clad officer had a ferocious look on his face, and there were six officers and soldiers standing next to him. However, they showed no expression.

The interior of the government office, which was supposed to be clean as new, was filled with a faint smell of rancidity.

"Snapped"
