It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 61 So Simple

Chapter 61

"Anyone who passes under Hama Ridge has to pay [-]% of the toll." Cheng Dalei knocked on the wooden sign beside him: "Young and old are not deceived."

"Master Cheng, I advise you not to bully others too much!" Lu Heng gritted his teeth.

"Hey, let's find out, okay? This is signed and stamped by City Lord Xue. Please don't take the big hat of bullying too much." Cheng Dalei was not angry.

"No money." Two words popped out of Lu Heng's mouth. He figured it out. To deal with a rascal like Cheng Dalei, he must treat him with the same rascal attitude.

"It's wrong to say that, money is like a sponge—the water in the towel will always be squeezed. With such a great status as General Lu, he will never be without a copper coin." Cheng Dalei blinked: "What's more, in the future In your current state, are you sure you can get out of Qingniu Mountain safely? We have taken money from Hamo Village, but we have escort services."

Lu Heng's heart skipped a beat. His experience this time was very tragic. Even his weapons were confiscated by the King of Youzhou, including Lu Heng's iron rod.So now Lu Heng's team is unarmed. If the gang of thieves in Qingniu Mountain want to beat the dog in the water, they may not be sure to leave Qingniu Mountain alive.

If Hamozhai was escorting him, it would not be a big deal, anyway, Cheng Dalei has some face now.

But the problem is, Lu Heng really has no money now.

"Why don't you leave me with two people." Cheng Dalei said, his eyes swept over the ragged soldiers behind Lu Heng.Hama Village is short of people now, Cheng Dalei had no choice but to put his mind on Lu Heng, no matter if it was a turtle or a turtle, he would not refuse anyone.

A little intolerance leads to chaos, and a little intolerance leads to chaos... Lu Heng kept comforting himself with these two sentences, looked at the soldiers behind him, and suddenly clasped his hands together and said, "Sorry, they are my soldiers. I took them out and I took them home."

With that said, Lu Heng took out a jade pendant from his body and handed it to Cheng Dalei.

"This ancient jade...is my toll."

Cheng Dalei was startled, then suddenly smiled, without taking the jade pendant, he said: "Please, Qin Man, send General Lu across the mountain."

Lu Heng's eyes became serious, and he clasped his fists and said, "Master Cheng has invited us, we will meet each other again, let's go back next time."

Looking at the back of Lu Heng leaving in desperation, Cheng Dalei understood that the next time we meet, I am afraid that we will have to use weapons to speak.

This scene had a great impact on everyone in the Liu family.He had heard about King Toad's situation in Qingniu Mountain, and thought it was just a rumor, but now he saw that even officers and soldiers had to pay protection fees to Cheng Dalei when they crossed the mountain, so could this rumor be false?

Beep, received fear value 10
Beep, received fear value 9
Beep, received fear value...

Cheng Dalei was stunned, but he didn't expect to receive fear value in this way.It seemed to him that everyone at the bottom of the mountain had a glance, and he continued his recruitment work after going up the mountain.

This scene shook several people again, and they went up the mountain to join Hamo Village.When it was dark, about fifty people joined Hamo Village, and there were thirty or so people left, some were eliminated by Cheng Dalei, and some were blood relatives of the Liu family headed by Liu Muyun, Liu Zhi and Meng Ziyun were among them.

Cheng Dalei stood on the mountain and looked at them, looking at each other through the rising fog, like a confrontation.

Cheng Dalei did not confront them, he ordered people to lift the table and close the gate of the village.

There is a night coming, and in comparison, this night is more difficult than yesterday.Hunger tortured their hearts, and what was even more painful was that they could get hot meals not far away.

The treatment in Hama Village is quite good, and the aroma of the dinner food has wafted here, making everyone salivate.

There were many complaints in the crowd. At first, the voice was very small, but it became louder and louder.

Some people have already begun to complain about why Liu Muyun encouraged everyone to attack Cheng Dalei. Can honor be eaten as food?

"Did they treat us badly back then? They redeemed us from the slave camp and prepared board and lodging for us. We were the ones who treated us like donkeys with good intentions. I'm sorry for Mr. Cheng."

"If you ask me, Cheng Dangjia is still very righteous..."

"Well, Dang Cheng's family is good."

Master Cheng is good, so whoever is wrong is naturally Liu Muyun who encouraged everyone to stick to the so-called honor.

Authority is being disintegrated, monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, and innate moral values ​​are collapsing.

Liu Muyun sat alone in front of the fire, speechless all night.

At dawn the next day, Cheng Dalei set out the table again, and today a few more people went up the mountain, but the people headed by Liu Muyun were more solidified.

Finally, in the afternoon, Liu Zhi slowly went up the mountain.

"Master Cheng, can you go down the mountain to talk to Grandpa Liu and the others, they are actually very grateful to Master Cheng."

Cheng Dalei actually understands that these people's perseverance has been shaken, and now they just need a step so that they can walk down comfortably.

But Cheng Dalei didn't plan to give this step. No matter how high you climb, you will fall down firmly. You climbed up by yourself.

"Miss Liu, I really want to talk to Mr. Liu, but you see I'm so busy here, I really can't leave, let's go another day, another day."

Liu Zhi's heart felt cold, and she had to admit that when Cheng Dalei descended from the sky to save her, she was tempted for a moment or two.However, there is no room for tenderness in this cold confrontation.

She went down the mountain sadly, alone.

By the afternoon, no one had gone up the mountain, and there were only about [-] people left at the bottom of the mountain.

One side is on the mountain and the other side is down the mountain. Everyone can see each other with cold eyes.

When it was getting dark, Liu Zhi went up the mountain again, facing her pitiful expression, Cheng Dalei showed a coldness that he had never had before.But Liu Zhi's first sentence made him dumbfounded.

"The Liu family is willing to dedicate me to Cheng Dang's family, and only ask Cheng Dang's family to be gracious and take in the young and old of the Liu family and give them a way out."

"Dedicated to..." Cheng Dalei opened his eyes wide: "What do you mean?"

Liu Zhi handed over a piece of paper to the effect that Liu Zhi would be given to Cheng Dalei in exchange for Cheng Dalei being able to take in the young and old of the Liu family, and underneath were the signatures of Liu Muyun and the other elders.

"Dedicated" means that as long as Cheng Dalei nods, he will have the ownership of Liu Zhi.

This power is not in the form of people, Liu Zhi being Cheng Dalei's wife, concubine, etc., but in the form of things.Cheng Dalei will completely own Liu Zhi's body and mind. He can make the other party make the bed for him, warm the bed and wash his feet, or give her to someone else.

In this matter, Liu Zhi has no autonomy at all, her life and the rest of her life belong to Cheng Dalei.

After Cheng Dalei realized this, he was stunned for a long time, and after a while, he said something confused.

"So simple!"
