Slowly walking out of the room, Zhang Yan met an acquaintance in the corridor before he went to the platform outside.

It was Yuan Shu, the prefect of Runan who had not appeared during this period of time.

……

"Hey, Gonglu, why are you here?"

"I haven't seen you for a while..."

……

Some curiously greeted the other party, Zhang Yan was a little surprised.

The same is true for Yuan Shu.

Now Yuan Shu was wearing a solid battle armor, with a sword pinned to his waist, looking heroic.

After changing out of his brocade clothes, Yuan Shu's own skin is still quite good.

……

"De Mao, have you recovered?"

……

Raising his hand to say hello to Zhang Yan, Yuan Shu's expression was a little surprised and pleasantly surprised.

After the two got closer, Zhang Yan discovered that there was an indescribably tired look hidden between Yuan Shu's brows and eyes.

……

"Gaolu, what's the situation outside now?"

"What are you doing here, why don't you go out with me to have a look?"

Zhang Yan took the initiative to send out the invitation.

To be honest, he was still a little curious about the situation in recent days.

It is a good thing to meet Yuan Shu now, lest he go around asking around again.

But Yuan Shu nodded slightly.

He didn't say anything, and the two of them left the room one after the other, and walked slowly along the stairs to the tower of Sishui Pass.

……

Before going out, Zhang Yan had imagined many situations outside the Sishui Pass.

For example, the sky is full of dust, for example, the ground is covered with corpses or something.

It's just that he didn't expect that he would see such a strange scene in the Eastern Han Dynasty 2000 years ago.

Outside the Sishui Pass, there is a huge circular pothole, at least half as deep as a person.

Around the pothole, there are countless dark traces.

Zhang Yan from later generations is very familiar with that kind of trace——

It's nothing more than gunpowder residue that hasn't burned cleanly.

……

"This... what's going on?"

"During the few days when I was in a coma, did something else happen?"

……

The reason for asking this is because only in large-scale wars, weapons such as artillery or thunder are necessary to be used in large quantities.

But what made him feel a little strange was the surroundings of the big pit.

In the surrounding area, within the range that Zhang Yan could see with the naked eye, there were no corpses, debris, etc.

There are even very few traces of blood.

This is really inconsistent with Zhang Yan's cognition.

……

"Hehe, don't just look ahead."

"Demao, come over here, look over there—"

……

Standing beside Zhang Yan, Yuan Shu looked deeply moved.

Where his finger was pointing, on the city wall of Sishuiguan, the plaque that was originally hanging high was completely torn apart by external force at some point.

The plaque, which was originally more than two meters long and nearly three meters wide, was split from the center, and it seemed to be crumbling in its original position, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.
