High Magic Earth

Chapter 684: Hurry up

The ghosts occupy their hometown of Baigang, and the people who lost the city can only migrate. There are no cities along the way to stop them. Even if there are, there is probably no city that can accommodate them. [Latest chapter reading..]

Not only is Ming relatively backward and primitive, but its biggest feature is its vast land and sparse population. Often there are no other gathering places within a few hundred miles of a city. If there are, it is only a lot of small villages and towns that depend on the city.

And there are not too many people in the city, and the scale of more than 100,000 people, I am afraid that the entire Westeros continent is only one of this continental political center.

What's more, the special weather environment in the world of ice and fire means that every winter coming will mean a major cleansing for the creatures on the mainland, so even if the population of the seven countries does not decrease in the war, it will disappear in the snowstorm.

Fortunately, human beings are extremely reproductive creatures. Even in such a bad situation, they still occupy the majority of Westeros.

Although the wars between the seven nations continued and burnt-up and snatched often occurred, but for the massacre, still not every noble general would order to do it, because the situation of Westeros is different, the population here is for every noble For the country, they are the most precious resources.

Because the population of these millions is still too small.

Unless military fortresses and defensive castles are of the kind of **** opponents, the war rarely kills innocent civilians.

Therefore, unlike some areas in the world, although the civilians here will be driven by the nobles like pigs and dogs, they will not be scared to leave their hometown when they hear a certain noble noble. .

The first reason is that the wild is very dangerous, and more importantly, the butchers of the nobles generally do not sway at the civilians.

For them, these pariahs are too lazy to look at them, just like Sir Willis Mandalay. In his mind, civilians are his private property. Although he can be slaughtered at will, he will not do it at all.

Because anyone who has seen it has killed all j because of the disobedience. No, the nobles simply didn't bother to pay attention to the civilians. The civilians and the nobles are completely people of two worlds.

So for the lowermost civilians, no matter which noble is the master of this city. None of their lives will be affected. Should they be harsh or harsh? Can they eat or eat?

As for what they burn and kill, they have long been accustomed to, and this situation is the same no matter where they flee. It is also the inertial thinking for thousands of years. Anyway, as long as it does not die, the hungry will always live, so whoever rules them does not matter, there is no need to leave.

At most, taxes are increased and more people starve to death, but even so, the lower-level civilians who lived in the Middle Ages and were extremely tenacious can survive, because they can’t persevere. It is death, they have no other choice.

The nobles are not bored and do not find the so-called untouchables in their eyes, because in the eyes of the nobles, they have lost their worth, and the civilians who live at the bottom do not care who their king is, and Or which noble family annexed other families.

The two have maintained a special understanding for a long time.

Therefore, this kind of large-scale migration of Baigang residents is not common, not to mention that the northern border has not had a war for a long time, except for the war at the time of the old king’s ascension, and the recent Lannister family. A large commercial city-state like Baigang is needed for migration.

Every nobleman who occupies there will only do business well. Fully tap the potential of a commercial city-state and turn it into your own private territory, rather than looting and looting.

Therefore, the last time such a large migration team is probably still a longer period of war. It can even be traced back to the original alien invasion.

In this magical world, although it is only the lowest low-magic plane, it is no longer a war, but a more terrible creature, a ghost.

Niya is exactly 20 years old this year, in the middle ages, when the average age is less than 30 years old. She is indeed an old man.

Of course, the definition of old man in this period is completely different from the definition of this world, but I am afraid that even if someone who knows these things sees Niya, it is not easy to confirm whether she is old.

Because although she was only 20 years old, her appearance was not, her withered hair was a little sparse, and it was scattered behind the same thin scalp. You could still vaguely see the shadows that had been carefully managed, but the belly was difficult at this time. Under the circumstances, she obviously has not paid attention to these things for a long time.

Her body is very thin, and the thin one is almost a stump, but it is much better than the guys who have been deformed because of long-term hunger in Junlin slums, but because of hunger and cold, they seem to have no strength. It will fall apart with a light touch.

Twenty years old, but it looks like the appearance of aging at the age of forty or fifty, this is the ordinary portrayal of the poor in the Middle Ages.

Her body wobbled, and she slowly moved forward with the team in the cold wind. There were no towns along the way, and there was also little pitiful food.

Food is not available in all fields. Most of the things that can be eaten and hungry are close to the forest, whether it is animals or wild fruits, but from Baigang all the way down the coast is coastal, and there is not much forest.

They passed a few forests and collected some edible things in it, but no one chose to stay there. The forests are also very dangerous places, and they may not be able to build a windshield before the heavy snow comes. Wooden house sheltering from the rain.

Niya had experienced a winter when she was three or four years old. At that time, she was young and ignorant, but it was good luck that Baigang, which was not exposed to war and aliens, was a very prosperous commercial city-state. Even civilians can afford babies in winter, without falling or starving them.

And when she remembered, Winter was about to end.

But this long winter nearing the end still brought her a very deep impression. . If it is an impression, the only word that can be used to describe it. . It's the corpse.

The corpses everywhere turned almost all the streets of Baigang into a huge open cemetery. Under the snow, there were countless overlapping corpses, long dead, or just frozen, cold. The weather sometimes keeps them well for a long time without causing an epidemic.

sometimes. Just stepping on a foot may step on the corpse, and when the heavy snow drifts over the surface of the corpse, everything is covered up.

Of course, Baigang will not die so many people, most of them died outside Baigang. That is, people in nearby cities and towns, after they have run out of food, they have to ask for help from the big city states. Unfortunately, the nobles will not control their life and death, and the poor people are helpless to them.

The only thing waiting for them is a dead end.

Winter is not without food, such as the only food winter life. A plant with good taste, there are many places to grow, in forests, city-states, and sometimes even next to human corpses.

This plant has a lot of water and is not hungry. In the modern world, it is not nutritious, but fortunately, it tastes good, and you can eat more. . If you can find so many.

At that time, in Niya’s memory, Dongming was the only thing you could eat every day. It is also a very delicious food.

It’s a pity that after Rin Dong ended, she never eaten it again. Later, she waited for two more years. She married a poor man next to her, her current husband, and both of them worked **** the pier. In order to get a little money for the coolie, although at this time there is much more food than in the winter, Niya still occasionally remembers that on that cold winter day, her family in the world together in a dilapidated small house. Snuggling through the winter.

A gust of cold wind blew gently, immediately blowing Niya's thin clothes through her heart, she couldn't help but shuddered, and then tightened her body tightly. Pulling thoughts out of the past.

Everything in front of you is the most important, because if you can't find food, I'm afraid it won't be long before the two of them have no future at all.

Because of the small population, the nobles on the Westeros continent were more or less intimate, although a larger part of their reason was that there was not much room for choice for the sake of matching families. But the same is true for civilians.

The world is small, so the scope will not be large. In the nearby city-states, almost everyone will have one or two relatives. Niya has a brother in Luanhe City.

of course. . Even if she wanted to take her husband to her brother, she had to walk to Luanhe City alive first.

Someone in the cold wind team kept falling silently. At this time, though Winter had just landed, for the people who fled from Baigang, hunger was their biggest enemy.

Niya hasn’t eaten for a whole day, she doesn’t know when she will be next, when death will be on her head, she can only pray silently in her heart, "Great Seven Gods ... please bless me."

Death has been permeating this team, as if a group of living walking dead, the screams and hurricanes on the face are getting bigger and bigger, and the wind is even strong enough to blow Niya's thin body.

The cold wind blew her piece of burlap that was barely broken and could hardly be called a dress, tightly attached to her, and the broken d mouth seemed to be torn even more by the hurricane. Seriously.

This kind of clothes that are difficult to block the spring light is naturally more impossible to block the cold wind. Niya and her husband must arrive at the Twin River City as soon as possible, otherwise the cold winter will take their lives when the winter snow falls from the sky.

However, although Niya Yi didn’t cover her body, she didn’t even have one person to look at her around. This was a big reason for her appearance and skull-like appearance, because the women around him were like this, but What's more, under the threat of starvation, things other than food are obviously not important anymore.

"Look! What is that!"

"so many people.."

"Who are they?"

"Maybe we can go up and order some food..."

Suddenly, Niya heard a noise in front of her, and the people around her also heard it. Their godless eyes suddenly flashed a little luster, and then looked up.

Niya didn't know what was happening there. She was hungry and her eyes were dizzy, hoping to find the food, and it was better to be the kind of food that she could pick up a few fruits while taking it.

Because she had seen it before, several people had been fighting because they were lucky to see a frozen rabbit, and finally their fighting attracted others and even caused a greater confusion.

Food is difficult to find, and it is more difficult to protect the food, so most people eat it immediately. As for Niya, her only harvest these days is a few bitter berries, because of the early winter It came and stopped growing, withering and dying, was discovered from a small forest.

Not knowing the other side's gains, Niya remembered her husband. The male obviously had an advantage in the competition. The night before yesterday, his husband brought back an unknown bird carcass, although only a circle larger than the slap.

While Niya was thinking wildly, the source of the chaos in front of her finally appeared in front of her.

Not far in front, there is a very large team, they are walking slowly forward, although it seems to be like the escape group like Niya, but the actual difference is very far.

Although they are also migrating, they have soldiers as protection. There are soldiers in armor before and after. They seem to have very good combat effectiveness, and these people have a good complexion. It's very thick, and apparently prepared long ago, Niya even saw a lot of supplies placed in the soldiers.

This is a prepared team~www.readwn.com~Niya thought that this was the only thing she could think of with her knowledge. As for why these people want to go to the north, then what happened to the south, she didn’t know anything about it. Did not expect, or realized.

This team apparently did not disturb their thoughts, or rather. . Not for the time being, and the group of people where Niya was located obviously felt retreat because the other party had heavily armed soldiers, unconsciously moved away and separated from the side, so the two teams passed by immediately.

What kind of people are they? Niya feels a little strange because she sees that there are many strong and terrible people in the team. They are not soldiers or knights. Although they look better than themselves, they are not good. Where, in other words, they are all civilians.

But why is it so strong, Niya sees them with a slightly high back, a strange walking posture with their hands hanging down, and a little yellow eyes, which makes her even more strange.

Because she didn't know that fate was always everywhere, but it was really difficult to get in touch with it, but sometimes it was very simple and simple. . Only one pass is needed. (To be continued.)
