The Border City of Death: I Can See the Death in Battle Seven Days Later

In the twenty-seventh year of Emperor Yong Chengxi's reign, military pay for the northern border was cut off and the city walls fell into disrepair. The imperial court was prepared to trade three border towns for a year of peace. When Lu Chenzhou woke up, he had become a criminal sent to the border. On the same day, he saw a death list that only he could read. The list does not issue tasks or rewards. It only lists the name of the deceased within seven days, the time of death, and a vague cause of death. When it first appeared, there were ninety-three people on the list. Lu Chenzhou's name was ranked last. There are only four words for the cause of death: the city is broken and there are no corpses. In order to survive for seven days, he rescued a soldier from a rein that was about to break, found a secret passage to sneak into the border fort from a bowl of hot soup, and summoned the enemy from a snowy valley that no one believed in. Later, he rescued criminals, wounded soldiers, and refugees, and also rescued an isolated city abandoned by the imperial court. As this group of people who were supposed to die gradually became the most powerful army in the north, the names that appeared on the death list also changed from a few people to thousands of troops. Lu Chenzhou finally understood: What he can change is never destiny. But who has the right to decide who should die.
