NOVPUBShen Roujia walked aimlessly along the road. Although the outskirts of Yancheng usually had some villages, due to the current special circumstances, all the refugees had fled to the city. As a result, this place appeared extremely desolate.
A few miles away was the camp where Gu Zhi was stationed.
Shen Roujia wasn’t sure if she could approach that area, but she still gathered her courage and walked in that direction.
As she moved further north, the surroundings became more remote. Despite it being summer, the number of dead trees and yellow sand increased.
Shen Roujia even vaguely heard the sounds of wild beasts, the noises of their growls and fights, making her feel increasingly uneasy.
She cautiously observed her surroundings as she continued to walk, seemingly wanting to quickly escape this abandoned village.
Although Shen Roujia thought of leaving, the current situation made her doubt whether she had taken the wrong path. Or perhaps, they were enduring unimaginable hardships to protect their homeland.
Shen Roujia sighed. In the distance, she seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves, likely from soldiers practicing.
Her face lit up with joy, thinking she was almost there.
She quickened her pace, but due to the current situation, her movements were a bit too loud, causing a rustling sound to come from the nearby bushes.
Shen Roujia’s heart tightened, and she anxiously looked around.
Suddenly, she stumbled and almost fell.
