Chu Sihai had a good impression of Yang Mu, who was not talkative and agile.

He smiled and said, “Brother Yang, please lead the way.”

Yang Mu nodded and brought Chu Sihai and the others up the mountain.

The group walked and stopped in the rugged and dangerous forest.

From time to time, pheasants and hares darted out of the grass and fled in all directions, but they did not find any large wild beasts. They did not even see a goat.

Chu Sihai said to the accompanying secret guard, Ding Si, “This mountain is a little strange. Logically speaking, there should be goats, badgers, wild boars… After walking for so long, I haven’t seen these things.”

Ding Si nodded. “From the looks of it, there are indeed people gathering on the mountain. The wild animals in the mountain have already become their food.”

Chu Sihai glanced at Yang Mu, who was rushing along. “Brother Yang, what wild animals did you hunt here three years ago?”

Yang Mu smiled shyly.

Chu Sihai nodded and pointed at the pine forest in front of him. “Everyone is tired after traveling for a few days. Let’s rest here early tonight.”

Ding Si looked around and said to Chu Sihai, “Head Shopkeeper, the terrain here is too high. It’s easy to be discovered if we light a fire. Let’s eat dry food!”

Chu Sihai looked at them. “Alright, everyone, find a big tree and climb up. I’ll be on night duty in the first half of the night. We’ll take turns in the second half.” After everyone agreed, they found a big tree and climbed up.

The next day, before the sun set, the few of them climbed over a mountain beam and went down the mountain to the valley.

Yang Mu pointed at a large mountain opposite and said, “It’s on that mountain.

There’s a waterfall there. The cave is behind the waterfall.”

Chu Sihai wiped the sweat off his face. “Find a place to rest tonight. We’ll travel tomorrow morning.” fr(e)enovelkiss.com

Chu Sihai looked around. There were big trees, vines, and bushes everywhere, giving off a feeling of isolation.

Everyone found a leeward place and picked up some dry firewood to set up a fire. They hurriedly ate some dry rations and arranged for the people on night duty to rest.

Not long after he fell asleep, Ding Si woke Chu Sihai up and pointed at the flames moving up the mountain opposite. “Head Shopkeeper, do you think someone is rushing with a torch?”

Chu Sihai nodded excitedly. “Yes, someone is climbing up the mountain. The person who is going up the mountain might not be on the same path as us. It seems that these traitors are indeed hiding in the depths of the mountain.”

Ding Si was also confident in this trip. “If we can find their hiding place, we can annihilate them. Go and rest first. We still have to travel tomorrow morning.”

The next day, just after dawn, the few of them began to move towards the opposite mountain. At dusk, the group reached the middle of the mountain. Before they could see the waterfall, everyone heard the sound of water splashing.

They walked for another hour before reaching the waterfall. Looking up, the waterfall was more than a meter wide and about 50 feet tall. It plunged down the steep rock wall and landed in the deep pool below.

Yang Mu pointed at a few large rocks beside the deep pool and said to Chu

Sihai, “Master Chu, you can pass by stepping on them.”

Chu Sihai nodded. Although the stones looked to be placed haphazardly, he could step on them easily. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝐦

If one took a closer look, one would notice that there was no moss growing on the part of the stone that was sticking out of the water. It was obvious that people often walked past here.

These rebels were too cunning. If the Yang brothers hadn’t discovered this place, they really wouldn’t have found their hiding place.

Chu Sihai looked at the secret guards accompanying him and said to him, “Ding Si, go in and check. We’ll hide in the forest.”

Ding Si nodded, pulled out the dagger at his waist, and jumped onto the stone. With a tap of his toes, he was behind the waterfall.

Yang Mu was dumbfounded and wondered to himself, “What kind of martial arts is this? If I had such martial arts, I wouldn’t be afraid of ferocious beasts when hunting.”

Ding Si swept forward like a ghost in the cave.

After more than half an hour, the faint sound of people talking could be heard.

Ding Si was elated and rushed towards the place where the sound came from.

A moment later, Ding Si saw the fire and the conversation could be heard clearly. He said in a low voice, “Brother Shui, it’s really f*cking boring to stay in this deep mountain forest. I farm during the day and have to be on night duty at night. I’m already moldy after staying in this godforsaken place for a few years.”

Brother Shui replied in a low voice, “That’s right! We’re just a little later than them. Yet the dirty and tiring work is all ours. Damn it, why did those people let us come late to guard the entrance of the cave? It’s difficult to even see a strand of human fur in this godforsaken place. In the past, there were women we can vent on in Liang Village. Damn it, we might as well stay in Liang Village!”

“That’s right! Since we’re all farming, we might as well find a place to plant safely and marry a wife to live a stable life!”

“You’re still craving a stable life. I saw that the Big Boss, who came back last night, looked a little off. I think something must have happened outside.”

“So be it! Damn it, if we want to fight, let’s fight him well. If this continues, we’ll be crippled.”

Listening to their complaints, Ding Si thought to himself that two must have come from Liang Village. It seemed that they were tired of staying in the mountains. He would go back and tell the Head Shopkeeper the news first.

Chu Sihai saw Ding Si appear from behind the waterfall from the tree and hurriedly slipped down from the tree.

He looked at Ding Si and asked anxiously, “How is it? Is anyone there?”

Ding Si smiled and nodded. “Yes, the two traitors guarding the entrance of the cave came from Liang Village. I heard them complaining. They’re obviously tired of living like this.”

“A hundred people left Liang Village one after another. If they’re all here, including the original people, there are at least two to three hundred people.

We don’t have enough people.”

Chu Sihai thought for a moment. “Guard here with the three brothers and check if there are any other entrances. I’ll bring Yang Mu back immediately and bring people over.”

“Are we going to kill the people who come out?” Ding Si asked.

“If someone comes out, follow them to take a look. After capturing them alive and asking them questions, destroy them. Don’t alarm the other bandits. It’ll be difficult to find them if they escape into the deep mountains.”

Ding Si replied, “Yes.”

Chu Sihai woke up Yang Mu, who was sitting on a big tree branch. “Brother

Yang, let’s go down the mountain and call someone.”

“Okay,” Yang Mu agreed and slipped down with Chu Sihai. The two of them disappeared into the night.

Ding Si and the brothers left behind arranged the time for the night duty.

He climbed up the tree where Chu Sihai was hiding and leaned against the tree trunk with his eyes closed.

Chu Sihai and Yang Mu walked for a while until they could not even see their fingers. Then, they lit torches and walked through the forest.

It was midnight before they climbed onto a tree and rested for a while before continuing on their way..
