Before the heavy snow falls, human life is already worthless.
This is an era where food is more valuable than life and rules are established by swords.
Corvee labor, famine, military disasters, officials oppressing the people, and the people eating the people, life itself is a life-threatening business.
Xu Mu originally just wanted to survive the winter in the dilapidated village, holding on to three acres of thin farmland in exchange for a mouthful of spring food.
But when the official was about to be named, the road was being built on a snowy night, and the first body was buried in the frozen soil, he finally understood——
In this world, if you don't fight, you will only be buried.
From hard labor in the snow to establishing authority on the bloody road;
From being driven by others to relying on life;
He doesn't want to be a hero, and he doesn't believe in destiny.
He only knows:
On the snowy road, if you don't bury others, you will bury yourself.
This is a story about survival in troubled times, the game between people's hearts, and how to change your way of survival step by step with blood.
