Yu County.

Outside the city gate, a young man in a white bachelor's gown sat on a white horse and stopped not far from the city gate.

Look at the mottled city wall and the empty city gate.

Twelve-year-old Lin Tian sat on a white horse, frowning as he looked at the city full of death.

"drive..."

Lin Tian rode his horse towards the city.

When he arrived at the city gate, he saw several old people and children sitting not far away. They had lifeless faces and looked dull, like bodies without souls. A group of flies were hovering over their heads.

Not far away, several old dogs that were starving to the point of being skin and bones lay on the ground, sticking out their tongues weakly, and turned their heads to look at Lin Tian who was slowly entering the city.

Ever since he left the previous county, all he saw on the way to Yun County were piles of bones. Those bones must be the remains of people who escaped from here!

Such a tragic scene, what exactly happened here? All the others who escaped from here died on the way to escape. I guess Xia Guo hasn’t received the news yet!

Otherwise, Xia Kingdom would have sent people here long ago.

How could it be like this now, with the entire Yu County in such a miserable state, without even a single young man?

"Bones are exposed in the wild, and no rooster crows for a thousand miles.

If one out of a hundred people survives, the thought of it breaks one’s heart…”

Lin Tian spoke slowly, he dismounted, holding the white horse in his hand and slowly walked towards an old man.

The old man was sitting against a collapsed low wall, holding a little girl about three or four years old in his arms, and a bamboo was placed horizontally at his feet.

The old man lowered his head and did not react to Lin Tian's approach.

Lin Tian squatted down and said to the old man sitting on the ground: "Old man, I don't know what happened here..."

"Young man, why are you here? Leave quickly! Those people will be here again soon." The old man opened his cloudy eyes, looked up at Lin Tian, ​​and said with cracked lips.

“They, who are they…”

Lin Tian asked with some confusion.

"They... they are a bunch of beasts, they are a bunch of bastards who do all kinds of evil..." The old man's face was full of resentment when he thought of those bastards who burned, killed and looted.

Even the desperate old men and women next to them were filled with resentment.

It was those people who made them lose their homes and now they have no hope of survival at all.

Next, with the old man's explanation, Lin Tian finally understood what had happened in Yu County.

A folding fan appeared in Lin Tian's hand, fanning it continuously.

He was filled with rage and wanted to see if he could use the fan to disperse the anger in his heart.

"Ah! Yesterday, two strangers came into our city. They refused to leave even when we told them to. Among them was a very pretty girl. If those damned beasts saw her, they might..."

The old man shook his head and said with some regret.

"There are other people, old man. I don't know where the other two are. I want to go and get to know them..." Lin Tian knew that the two dared to enter Yu County, and despite the reminders of these old people, they still did not leave here. They must have some abilities.

"They are the two of them! On Lao Xiao's side, if you go forward along this road, you will see an inn. The two of them are inside."

The old man said to Lin Tian.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian nodded, closed the folding fan in his hand, took out two pancakes from his sleeve and put them in the old man's hand, then walked towards the inn.

Arriving at the inn where the old man had stayed, Lin Tian looked at the inn in front of him. The name...it really was an inn.

As he walked into the inn, Lin Tian immediately saw the innkeeper and his wife sitting at the cashier counter.

The two men looked listless, just like the old men outside.

Lin Tian walked forward, bowed, and asked, "Excuse me, owner, are there two strangers resting here?"

The shopkeeper weakly raised his head and looked at Lin Tian. Seeing that he was in a bachelor's uniform, he guessed that he must be a scholar. A scholar actually dared to come to Yu County. Wasn't he afraid of something bad happening? However, he didn't care much and pointed to the innermost room upstairs.

"Here, there."

Lin Tian thanked him and went upstairs.

When he arrived at the door, he raised his hand and knocked gently.

"dong dong dong..."

Soon, a crisp sound was heard from inside the house.

"who..."

The door slowly opened, and Lin Tian looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help but be amazed.

The woman had picturesque eyebrows and eyes like stars, but she was wearing a veil, so her features couldn't be seen clearly. Only her clear eyes could be seen.

He clasped his fists and introduced himself: "I am Lin Tian, ​​passing by here and came to visit."

Qingyue looked Lin Tian up and down. She could feel an unusual aura from Lin Tian. It was a holy and profound power, as heavy as ancient mountains and rivers, and as fresh as the dawn.

She had never seen such power before.

"Auntie, who is it?" A voice that was extremely familiar to Lin Tian sounded in the room. He was so familiar with that voice that it couldn't be more familiar.

"Xiao Fan..."

Lin Tian couldn't help but shout.

After hearing Lin Tian's words, the sound of running came from inside. The next moment, Lin Tian saw Lin Fan's familiar face.

"Brother Lin Tian, ​​why are you here..." Seeing Lin Tian, ​​Lin Fan immediately shouted excitedly.

"Xiao Fan..."

Lin Tian was also very happy to see Lin Fan and shouted with a smile.

"Brother Lin Tian, ​​come in and have a drink of water first..."

Lin Fan dragged Lin Tian inside, and Qingyue saw that Lin Fan knew Lin Tian, ​​so she didn't ask any more questions and went back to the room first.

When Lin Tian followed Lin Fan into the room, Qingyue had already made a cup of tea for them.

"Brother Lin Tian, ​​this is Aunt Qingyue. If Aunt Qingyue hadn't saved me this time, I would have been beaten." Lin Fan hurriedly introduced Qingyue to Lin Tian.

"Junior Lin Tian meets Aunt Qingyue and thanks Aunt Qingyue for taking care of Xiaofan." Lin Tian hurriedly bowed respectfully to Qingyue and said.

"You're welcome, Xiaofan, you were just doing this to save my face. In fact, it was Xiaofan who saved my life." Qingyue looked at Lin Fan gently and replied to Lin Tian.

After spending some time together, the more they got along, the more she felt that Lin Fan was like her own child.

Xiaofan said she looked like her mother, and she didn't know if she was her lost sister.

"By the way, Brother Lin Tian, ​​aren't you studying at the private school back home? Why are you here? Are you out alone? It's so dangerous outside, why would you come out alone?"

Lin Fan asked Lin Tian a series of questions in a hurry.
