On the execution ground, Lei Tuo, a prisoner on death row, was waiting for a pardon: The death penalty can be exempted, so go back to Yanhui Pass to fill the gap.
Those who survived with him were four hundred criminal soldiers and thirty-six bandits - two groups of people who deserved death in the eyes of the court, who were sent to guard an abandoned pass.
The Ministry of War's abacus was accurate: for Beishuo's cavalry to go south, it would be the most economical to abandon the pass. As for these more than 400 death row inmates? Dead, just in time.
But they didn't die.
The bandits are not afraid of death, and the criminals have no escape route. A roster records life and death, and a wordless tablet calms people's hearts. From the thirty-six riders of the Death Character Camp to the 600,000-strong army of the Jinzi Army, from an isolated pass to the entire world...
At the execution ground that year, the prison officer asked Lei Tuo: Do you have anything to say?
He said: Yes. Remember, those who cannot be killed today will be the ones who kill you in the future.
