Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 300 Zhu Ye Smashes the Wall
From Wuyuan County, heading west along the Yellow River, the first city you see is Guangmu County in Shuofang County.

In the north of Guangmu County, a broad, majestic and magnificent river is rolling towards the east with a shocking roar. It is none other than the Yellow River that gave birth to the splendid Chinese civilization.

At this time, on the other side of the river from Guangmu County, a cavalry of several hundred men was standing in the wilderness, looking at the river and the county town on the opposite side which looked deserted and dilapidated.

Zhu Ye rode his horse to the riverside and said with emotion: "The mighty Yellow River gave birth to our nation. I never thought that we, its unworthy descendants, would let it be humiliated by the horses of the barbarians. I never thought that one day, the water of the Yellow River would be dyed red by the blood of the people it nurtured..."

A soldier came over.

"General, the Yellow River is raging. We don't have a ferry, so I'm afraid we can't cross it."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ye looked back and forth at the Yellow River, as if trying to find a place to cross the river, but in the end he found nothing.

"Never mind, there's no time to rush. Let's search the north first, then cut some trees and see if we can build some rafts and find a river section with a slower current to cross."

The soldiers around him were just about to receive orders when suddenly a series of "gurgles" broke their thoughts.

Just this one shout made Zhu Ye, who had finally become serious, immediately raise his hammers in alertness: "What the hell!"

The soldier scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"That... is the little man's belly..."

"Pfft..." Zhu Ye burst out laughing.

"Your stomach is making quite a lot of noises. Just based on the sound, it's worthy of the name Thor in our Thor Ride, haha!"

The soldier was already a little embarrassed, and after being teased by him, such a big and strong man suddenly became shy.

Zhu Ye waved his hands and said, "Alright, General Zhu, I'm hungry too. I think there should be some game on the mountain to the north. It's too boring to eat dry food alone. This is not the food for our Thunder God Cavalry. Come on, follow me to get some game to taste!"

Upon hearing Zhu Ye's words, the dusty faces of the five hundred Thunder God Riders suddenly lit up!
"Okay! Our General Zhu is the one who cares about others!"

The group ate a little dry food to fill their stomachs, then galloped on their horses. After more than an hour, when the sun was at the middle of the sky, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain range.

"Let's go, we will split up and meet up here to see who catches more prey. General, I will give you a reward, haha!"

At Zhu Ye's command, the five hundred Thunder God Riders scattered like rabbits.

"Hey, these greedy bugs."

Zhu Ye laughed and went out to look for prey.

However, there are far fewer prey in this kind of mountain than in the dense jungles of Taihang Mountains. Zhu Ye walked around but didn't get much.

"This mountain is so poor..."

Zhu Ye sighed.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a dark shadow rushing past him.

He quickly looked over and saw a sheep with huge horns eating fruits from a short shrub a few dozen steps away.

"Hey, argali! The meat of this fellow is really delicious!"

Zhu Ye was so itchy that he almost drooled.

He held up two hammers and carefully approached the argali from behind.

Thirty steps...

Twenty steps...

Ten steps...

Eight steps...

Seeing that he was only five steps behind the argali, Zhu Ye could no longer bear it. He took a big step forward and was about to smash it with his two hammers!
However, his big stride made quite a noise, startling the argali that was originally immersed in the delicious food.

Relying on the instinct acquired from years of survival in the wild, the ram pushed hard with its hind legs and jumped far to the side.

"Don't run, just let me hit you with my hammer!"

Zhu Ye was not willing to let go of the prey that was right at his mouth, so he rushed over.

The argali was not a fool. Of course it realized the danger and started running madly with its four powerful hooves.

Even in a plain area, Zhu Ye would not be able to catch up with the other party, let alone on this rugged hillside.

Zhu Ye used all his might and chased the argali for quite a distance. Then the argali turned a corner and jumped into a rocky valley, and no trace of it could be seen anymore.

Zhu Ye said with a disappointed look on his face, "What bad luck! It's just a rabbit, with only a few pounds of meat. I guess I didn't catch as many prey as those puppies did. I'm so embarrassed! I'm so angry! I'm so angry! This argali is really naughty!"

The more this guy thought about it, the angrier he got. Finally, he couldn't help but smash the stone wall next to him with a hammer.

"Dong dong dong..."

He smashed several times in a row, causing rocks to fly everywhere, but he was still not satisfied, so he raised the Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hammer high up, intending to continue smashing. However, the hammers suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"Hmm? This sound is not right..."

Zhu Ye frowned, looked at the stone wall, then looked at the sledgehammer in his hand, then reduced his strength and hit the stone wall a few more times.

"Dong dong dong..."

The sound of the smash was somewhat distant and seemed like an echo.

"No! There's nothing behind this stone wall!"

Zhu Ye made this conclusion immediately, and then he looked overjoyed.

"Haha, could it be the nest of some giant insect? Hey, this is great, Master Zhu will be blessed today!"

Zhu Ye was in high spirits, not caring about whether it was stone or wood, he just swung his pair of sledgehammers and kept smashing. While he was smashing, several soldiers from the Thunder God Riders suddenly ran over.

"Hey? General Zhu, what are you doing? Why are you destroying the mountain wall?"

Zhu Ye turned his head and saw that each of these soldiers was holding a lot of prey in their hands. He felt so choked up that he couldn't breathe.

"Don't worry about it, just watch from here. Whether we can have a good lunch depends on this!"

After saying that, he continued to smash the stone wall "bang bang bang".

"Is there something good in this stone wall? This is strange."

"Hey, why do you care so much? If the general says there is, then there must be. Let's just wait and see."

"That's right, stop talking and just watch quietly."

Several Thundergod Knights looked at Zhu Ye smashing the stone wall with excitement and anticipation.

The more they did this, the harder Zhu Ye worked. Otherwise, if he lost face in front of the soldiers he led, he would not be able to survive as a general.

He didn't know how many times he had hit the stone with the hammer, but Zhu Ye's arms began to ache slightly. Suddenly, he found a hole about the size of a thumb on the stone wall, which made him very excited!
"Haha, I finally broke through. Let me try harder!"

He gathered all his strength in his arms and swung out his strongest hammer yet!
There was a loud "bang", rocks flew everywhere, sand and dust filled the sky, and all over Zhu Ye's face.

"Bah ah..."

Zhu Ye spat out the sand and gravel in his mouth and brushed off the dust on his hair and clothes.

Several Thundergod Knights also hurried over.

"Ah, the general is so brave and invincible that he actually smashed a hole in the mountain wall!"

After hearing the soldiers' flattery, Zhu Ye immediately raised his head high.

"Hey, of course. You two stay here and wait for the other brothers. You two follow me in to catch the big bug!"

The two soldiers who were named were overjoyed and ran over quickly.

Zhu Ye smashed a hole about three feet in the stone wall. The three men were all rather large in build and could only barely squeeze in.

Zhu Ye was so busy looking at the situation inside the cave that he didn't notice the ground under his feet. In fact, the ground was lower than the ground outside the cave entrance. He stepped on empty air and fell into the cave.

"Oh my god..."

The two soldiers behind him saw how miserable he looked and covered their mouths and laughed.

Zhu Ye glared at them and warned them, "Don't laugh! Also, don't tell anyone, or I'll punish you by not letting you eat!"

When the two heard this, they nodded quickly.

Zhu Ye stood up, dusted himself off, and began to look at the cave in front of him.

This cave is quite large, being several dozen feet long and wide. On one side of the mountain wall, water is gurgling out, flowing along the mountain wall to the ground and out of a cave entrance.

"General, there doesn't seem to be any big insects here. Maybe you guessed wrong."

Zhu Ye looked around but couldn't see any signs of prey living here. But he had gone to great lengths to break through the cliff wall and get in. How could he admit that he was wrong? That would be so embarrassing.

"How...how is it possible? How could this general guess wrong? Let me see..."

As he spoke, he looked around to see if there were any clues.

The two soldiers knew his temper and didn't want to expose him, so they just waited.

Suddenly, Zhu Ye shouted, "Haha, look, there's a small hole over there, it must lead to another cave!"

The two looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, they saw a cave entrance that was about half a person's height.

Zhu Ye was now confident: "Hehe, I told you, there must be a big beast in here. Haven't you heard that a cunning rabbit has three burrows? Even rabbits are like this, so other wild animals may be the same. It's not surprising to live in several linked caves. Come on, follow me and take a look!"

He was full of energy and walked over with two hammers in hand. The two soldiers quickly followed.

The three of them squatted down, passed through the small hole, and came to a cave again.

"Um... that... General, there doesn't seem to be any trace of wild animals here..."

Zhu Ye's forehead began to sweat and he wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he just smash the mountain wall? There was no way he could get away with it this time. Everyone would laugh at him to death when he returned.

But another soldier inexplicably shouted again: "Hey, General, look, there is indeed a hole over there!"

Zhu Ye looked over and, sure enough, there was another hole that was slightly wider than the one he had just passed through. However, this hole was in the corner and the light was dim, so he didn't notice it at first.

When he looked at the soldier who was shouting, he felt as if he had seen a savior.

"Come on, come on, the cave is so big, maybe it's a nest. We're in for a treat this time!"

However, just as he excitedly went in, he found another empty cave.

However, here too, a hole was discovered.

Zhu Ye didn't give up and went through again...

In this way, he and two soldiers drilled at least seven or eight holes.

"Well... General, I think we should go back. These beasts are too cunning, and the caves are too deep. We should not waste our energy and just let them go, shall we?"

In fact, this cave looks like it was naturally formed and was not dug by any wild beast. However, the soldier knew that if he didn't give Zhu Ye a way out for the sake of face, Zhu Ye would probably keep drilling to the end of the cave, and there would be no end.
