Although this world looks similar to the ancient earth, it does not have the concept of a country or dynasty.

It is a bit like the period of feudal separatism in ancient times. In this vast land, the city-state lord system is implemented.

A force owns one or several cities and rules over thousands of miles of land.

Lu Wei's original place was near the endless forest in the northeast and Yongzhou in the north.

It belongs to an area ruled by a certain family. This area is very large, nearly 1,000 miles wide from east to west, and nearly 2,000 miles long from north to south.

However, in such a large area, there are only 3 large cities, a dozen small cities and hundreds of villages, with a population of less than 3 million.

Obviously, this is a cold and bitter borderland, so it is sparsely populated.

In this disaster, those who can run away basically ran away, and those who can't run away are probably eaten clean by monsters.

Most people in Lu Wei's village followed a caravan, although the caravan would not protect them.

But if they encounter wild beasts or bandits, the caravan will generally take action to solve them for their own safety.

These refugees can be regarded as free shelter.

So, the people following the caravan are not just Lu Wei's village, but at least tens of thousands of people at the beginning.

Although their behavior is a bit rogue, the caravan people did not drive them away.

Because, if they really encounter a danger that they cannot deal with, these tens of thousands of people will become a good bait.

However, the team of tens of thousands of people at the time of departure has only a few thousand people left in nearly two months, and nearly 80% have been eliminated.

Some fell on the road forever and became food for wild beasts or others. Some really couldn't walk anymore and could only find a place to hide, hoping that the beast tide would not find them.

Lu Wei once wanted to hide in a deep mountain forest like them.

But when he thought of those powerful monsters, he gave up this naive idea.

It is a foolish dream for an ordinary person to survive in a forest full of monsters.

So, no matter how difficult or bitter it is, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

As time went on, most people had already run out of food.

From then on, the evil of human nature was more vividly displayed.

Rice meat, vegetable man, two-legged sheep, and rotten bones...

These words were presented in front of him in a real and bloody way.

As Mr. Zhou said, there are only two words in history: cannibalism.

At the beginning, those people only picked up dead bodies to eat, and slowly developed into killing people to eat.

Lu Wei knew that he and his sister belonged to the vulnerable group and were likely to become the target of those people.

So, along the way, he was very vigilant and would not separate from his sister no matter what he did.

When camping at night, he would also find a remote place to hide.

Just like tonight, he took his sister to find a small ditch, which not only blocked the wind, but also avoided the sight of those who were interested.

But he didn't expect that he would still be found by those people.

It seems that they may have set their sights on him and his sister a long time ago.

Lu Wei looked at the three people who were slowly approaching, and quickly turned around to put out the fire first, and then picked up his sister and put her a little further away to avoid any harm to her.

Then he pulled over two pieces of wood, one large and one small, and placed them where he and his sister were.

Most people nowadays have night blindness, and they can't see anything clearly at night.

Even those with better eyesight can only vaguely see a dark area, and can't tell whether it is a person or a piece of wood.

Finally, he found a hidden place, covered himself with snow, and secretly observed the three people.

Looking at the three people who were tiptoeing not far away, Lu Wei tightened the hatchet in his hand, suppressed the fear and tension in his heart, and thought about countermeasures in his heart.

Beg for mercy?

That is equivalent to putting yourself on the chopping board and letting others eat you.

So, there is only one way to fight to the death.

Thinking of this, Lu Wei took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying not to panic and calm down.

At this time, panic and fear are the most useless emotions, which will only make you die faster.

His eyes were fixed on the three people who were getting closer and closer.

Because it was too dark, Lu Wei couldn't see who the three people were and what they looked like. He could only see that each of them held a thick wooden stick.

Seeing that they didn't have any knives or sharp weapons, Lu Wei's heart was slightly relieved.

He had a hatchet in his hand, and his body had recovered to a level close to that of a normal person. Facing three ordinary people who were unarmed, hungry and powerless, he was not without the ability to fight.

As for why Lu Wei was sure that these three people were just ordinary people, it was very simple.

If they were really warriors, they didn't need to eat people. There were many ways to get food. Even if they served as caravan guards, they would not have to worry about food and drink.

Moreover, if the warrior wanted to kill him, he didn't have to be so sneaky.

So, these three people must be ordinary people like him.

As the three people got closer and closer, Lu Wei's eyes became more and more fierce, and his killing intent became stronger and stronger.

In this cannibalistic environment, if you don't kill people, people will kill you. There is no choice.

Suddenly, the three stopped, and after a moment, one of them took the lead, while the other two fell behind.

Seeing this, Lu Wei frowned, as he did not expect these three to be so cautious.

Ma San poked Er Laizi with a wooden stick and shook his head, signaling him to go first.

Er Laizi wanted to avoid going, but if he didn't go, he might be thrown into the pot and stewed in his sleep after returning.

He tightened the stick in his hand to avoid slipping when he smashed the opponent's skull, and Er Laizi walked towards the ditch where Lu Wei had just been.

For this kind of thing, he was no longer nervous and afraid as he was the first time.

He killed so many people that he didn't feel anything after getting used to it, and he was a little handy.

Er Laizi came to the edge of the pit quietly and stuck his head out to look carefully into the pit.

As Lu Wei guessed, Er Laizi saw two long black shadows and thought they were two people.

He raised the stick without hesitation and smashed the longer wood hard.

This time, if it was a person, even if it didn't kill him, it would make him lose his ability to resist.

However, at the moment when he swung the wooden stick, a figure suddenly jumped out from the side and rushed towards him quickly.

Before Er Laizi could react, he felt a chill on his neck, as if something was gushing out of his body.

Then he felt dizzy and fell headfirst into the pit.

The wooden stick in his hand deviated from the direction and hit the ground next to him with a muffled sound.

Seeing the blood spurting several meters away and the head almost falling off, Lu Wei felt his heart beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

It was his first time to kill someone, which made him extremely panic and a little excited.

Fortunately, it was night, and he couldn't see the horrible scene of a head being chopped off, otherwise he would probably be scared to the point of weakness.

Secretly pinching his thigh and forcing himself to calm down, Lu Wei looked at the remaining two people not far away.
