Chapter 91: Purge the court! Execute Shouzhe!
……
Beyond Tianfu Commandery, heading further south, lies a vast expanse of rolling hills.
Here, there are no insurmountable peaks or treacherous ridges, only hillocks that rise no more than a hundred feet high.
The hills are unpredictable, sometimes stretching into continuous ranges, sometimes appearing hundreds of miles apart, with occasional river valleys and wetlands, creating a diverse geographical environment.
Tall trees claim the sunlit spots, while verdant bamboo groves fill the gaps between them. Various shrubs and vines thrive in the forests, making the vegetation extremely rich.
Due to the humid and warm climate, along with abundant natural resources, this area is home to a wide variety of bird species and numerous spiritual birds.
However, the humid environment not only suits birds but also breeds a multitude of snakes, insects, rodents, poisonous bugs, and frogs, along with various brightly colored mushrooms, any of which can easily be fatal. Some are even beyond the defense of Basalt cultivators.
Moreover, due to the unique geographical location, mountain winds converge here. Every summer, the mountains are shrouded in miasma that can easily claim lives.
No matter how you look at it, until these issues are resolved, this is not a place suitable for human habitation.
