It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 167

"Then... just run away."

Cheng Dalei's raised hand had no hope of putting it down, like a drowning man trying to grab the last straw, but he couldn't catch anything.

But then he raised his hand and said, "Fleeing, you have to listen to my arrangements! Five thousand brothers are scattered as birds and beasts, they can only become ghosts under the sword of others, and a few can survive. I will take everyone away, Five thousand brothers walk together, not letting go of an old man, nor a young man."

"Follow the master's orders!"

No one objected to Cheng Dalei's words. The army of the Rong tribe was overwhelmed. In fact, everyone lost their backbone. Cheng Dalei was willing to stand up at this moment, and everyone was willing to rely on him.

"Lin Shaoyu obey!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"I ordered you to climb the Niujiao Peak alone, bring dry food for a month, and use the big tree as a letter to point out the direction of the Rong tribe!"

Niujiao Peak is the highest peak of Qingniu Mountain. From the top of the peak, you can see the whole Qingniu Mountain.

"Liao Jia and Liao Yi take the order!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"You two brothers and I each bring a thousand people, dig rivers, destroy roads, block roads with rocks and trees, and buy time for everyone to retreat!"

"Subordinates take orders!"

Cheng Dalei looked at the crowd again and said, "Brothers, if you want to go, let's go together, and the five thousand brothers will go together. I, Cheng Dalei, will not let down a single brother."

Everyone has the backbone, especially the old and weak, who can't run very far. Without a large army, it will be a dead end. Now that Cheng Dalei said this, a stone fell to the ground in everyone's heart, and there was a tsunami in the valley.

Cheng Dalei also called Xu Shenji, and Gao Feihu stayed behind to discuss how everyone should retreat.

"Master, this matter should not be delayed, should we leave overnight?" Gao Feihu said.

"Don't be in a hurry!" Cheng Dalei said: "When the Rong tribe conquered Black Rock City, they would naturally have to burn, kill and loot, and transport the supplies and slaves away, so they wouldn't be able to come down for ten days and a half months. When you panic and choose a path, is it not seeking your own death.”

Seeing Cheng Dalei so calm, Gao Feihu also felt relieved, and said: "Everything is according to the orders of the master, and we can rest assured to follow the master."

"That's right, when we leave here, let's occupy another hill, and we will still eat spicy food." Xiong Daxiong said.

Cheng Dalei smiled slightly: "Don't worry, everyone, everything is in my arms. Now let's discuss where to go?"

Several leaders gathered together to discuss the route of retreat.

"Should we flee to Bingzhou?" Xiong Dao: "It's easy to walk there, and it's easy to walk?"

"Bingzhou is bordered by the Rong tribe, and fleeing there may be worse than here." Cheng Dalei rejected Xiong Da's proposal.

"The only way to go now is to go to Jizhou. I have a friend in Feilong Mountain in Jizhou. I have a deadly friendship with me. Why don't we go to them?" Gao Feihu said.

"Can you believe it?" Cheng Dalei asked.

"It's a good relationship with me. I helped him when he was not prosperous." Gao Feihu.

"Now, it seems that there is no other way." Cheng Dalei said: "How far is it to go there?"

"Five thousand of us have passed, and it will take about a month to go."

"If you have enough time, you should bring enough food for a month." Cheng Dalei said: "And weapons, but also for self-defense... Let's prepare together, cut more trees to make horse carriages."

Xu Shenji said: "Master, it's not a matter of a day or two to prepare these things, and the Rong people won't kill them."

"Why did I let Shaoyu go to Niujiao Peak?" Cheng Dalei rolled his eyes at him: "Don't worry, I have plans for these, and I will never fail."

...

Blackrock City, night.

Fordler carefully climbed over the wall and sneaked into the city lord's mansion.

Immediately following, he quietly sneaked into the vegetable cellar of the City Lord's Mansion. In this era, even the lord of a city had to dig a cellar at home.

"What, who?" someone whispered in the dark.

"Don't be afraid, it's me." Fordler held a basket in his hand: "Eat it quickly, I brought it for you."

After a while, there was a whispering sound of chewing in the dark, like a gluttonous dog.

"Don't choke. I brought you water to drink. I'm afraid I won't be able to come here all the time. This is three days' worth of food, you have to eat it slowly."

"Thank you, thank you for hiding me here...you were beaten..."

There were no lights in the dark cellar, and in the dim moonlight, the bruises on Fordler's face could be seen.

"It's nothing, my brother beats me a lot, I'm used to it." Fordler grinned, looking at the embarrassed eating of Green Cherry, he remembered a puppy he once raised. At that time, it was also as greedy as green cherries, but was later killed by his brother and boiled into meat.

"It's me who got you down... so thank you, when are you leaving?"

"I don't know what to go, maybe I won't go. My brother said that I want to find something here, but I don't know what it is."

"Actually...you're a good person. You're not the same as them..." Green Cherry devoured her food and suddenly asked, "It would be fine if you didn't come and beat us, why are you so bad and come to rob us?"

The atmosphere instantly calmed down, and Fordler's breathing seemed to stop. Green Cherry suddenly realized that there was a Rong in front of him, and he might have accidentally angered him.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I said something wrong, don't mind..."

"It's nothing... In fact, we can't eat for a long time. The tribe suffered a disaster last year. Large areas of grassland were deserted, and cattle and sheep starved to death. If we don't come to rob you, we can't survive."

The voice gradually fell, and Fordle suddenly said: "That's it, I'll go first, you are fine, I will come to see you often."

After that, this incident caught Fordler's heart, and he hid the green cherries in the cellar, like raising a puppy, always wanting to take a look every day to see if he grew up. The sun in his heart, Ulihan, has not thought much of it these days.

That night, he quietly came to the cellar again, and only dared to speak when he entered the cellar: "Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, I'm here to see you, are you hungry, I brought you something delicious."

No one spoke, and when he got closer, he saw that Xiao Tao had disappeared. On the haystack, a young man was taking a nap. Surprisingly, he had a pair of red eyebrows.

In an instant, Fordler broke out in cold sweat, and his body shivered uncontrollably.

"Ha!" Chi Mei yawned, and Yoyo woke up: "Good brother, what delicious food did you bring? I slept and was just hungry."

"You...killed her?" Fordler asked in a voiceless voice.

"Your eyes... it's really scary." Chimei put away her smile: "Like a hungry wolf, if I told you that she was dead, would you kill me?"
