National Team (Bonus Chapter for Book Friend "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, I Am King")

When he woke up, the surroundings were so quiet that Zhang Yang wondered whether he had dreamed everything.

There was no one inside the stone chamber. Through the arrow slits, he could see the dazzling sunlight and a corner of blue sky.

"How long have I been asleep?"

Zhang Yang was puzzled. It was clearly already afternoon, yet something still felt off.

After carefully checking himself, he found that none of his parts were missing, nor had any suspicious odors appeared. The old man's moral integrity was not something he could trust.

When he stepped out of the inner fortress, he saw several kindly old women picking fresh vegetables with a few older sisters.

"Cheng'er, you're awake? The food will be ready soon. Ai, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I still remember what you looked like at five or six years old. Poor my younger sister—who would have thought that our parting back then would be a separation between life and death?"

One of the old women reminisced with emotion. Zhang Yang could only smile awkwardly. After all, he was not the real Dong Cheng.

"Um, where did my uncle go? How long was I asleep? The demon soldiers didn't attack again, did they?"

"Your uncle went down the mountain. Yesterday afternoon, Black Rock Fortress sent three thousand reinforcements here, and they're stationed at the foot of the mountain now. The demon soldiers tried probing attacks several times, but all of them came to nothing. As for you, Cheng'er, you were simply too exhausted and slept through the entire night and morning."

"Thank you, Aunt."

Zhang Yang had no time to wonder why he had slept so long. He headed straight down the mountain. What was going on? Three thousand reinforcements—was this a joke?
