It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 61

"Everyone who passes under the Toad Ridge must pay 20% of the toll." Cheng Dalei knocked on the wooden sign standing beside him: "Young old man is not deceived."

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

"Hey, find out if it's okay, this is signed and stamped by City Lord Xue. Please don't buckle the big hat that is too deceiving." Cheng Dalei was not angry.

"No money." Lu Hen said two words, he figured it out, to deal with a rogue like Cheng Dalei, he must treat him with the same rogue attitude.

"It's not right to say that. Money is like a sponge -- water in a towel is always squeezed. With such a big identity as General Lu, he will never lose a piece of copper." Cheng Dalei blinked: "What's more, with In your current state, are you sure you can walk out of Qingniu Mountain safely? We have taken the money from Toad Village, but there is an escort service."

Lu Heng's heart skipped a beat, his experience this time was very tragic, and even his weapons were detained by the King of Youzhou, including Lu Hen's iron rod. So now Lu Heng's team is defenseless. If the thieves in Qingniu Mountain want to beat the underdogs, they may not be sure to leave Qingniu Mountain alive.

If there is a Toad Village escorting it, it is naturally nothing. In any case, Cheng Dalei has some face now.

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

"Why don't you leave two people for me." Cheng Dalei said, his eyes swept over the ragged soldiers behind Lu Heng. Toad Village is now short of people, and Cheng Dalei has no choice but to hit Lu Hen, whether it is turtles or turtles, all come.

If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. I took them out and I took them home."

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

"This ancient jade... Quan should be my toll."

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

Lu Hen's eyes became serious, and he clasped his fists and said, "Master Cheng has invited me, and the mountains and rivers meet. Let's go back next time."

Seeing the back of Lu Heng leaving in despair, Cheng Dalei understood that the next time we meet, I am afraid that he will use weapons to speak.

This scene had a big impact on everyone in the Liu family. I had heard about how King Toad was doing in Qingniu Mountain, but I thought it was a rumor to spread the truth, but I saw that even officers and soldiers had to pay protection fees to Cheng Dalei when they crossed the mountain, so this rumor can still be false.

beep, received fear value of 10

beep, received fear value 9

Duh, received fear value...

Cheng Dalei was stunned, but he didn't expect to receive fear points like this. He looked at everyone under the mountain, and continued his recruitment work after going up the mountain.

This scene made several people shake again, going up the mountain to join the Toad Village. When it was dark, there were about fifty people who joined the Toad Village, and there were more than thirty people left. Some were eliminated by Cheng Dalei, and the others were blood relatives of the Liu family headed by Liu Muyun, including Liu Zhi and Meng Ziyun.

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

Cheng Dalei didn't confront them, he ordered the table to be lifted and closed the gate of the village.

There is a night coming, and by 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 within a short distance.

The treatment in Toad Village is quite good. The smell of dinner has already drifted here, making everyone salivate.

The crowd remembered the complaints, which were very small at first, but became louder.

Some people have already begun to complain about why Liu Muyun encouraged everyone to attack Cheng Dalei at that time. Could it be that honor can be eaten as a meal?

"Did they treat us badly back then? They redeemed us from the slave camp and provided us with food and lodging. It's our kindness that treats us as donkeys and lungs, and I'm sorry for Cheng's family."

"If you want me to say, the Cheng family is still very loyal..."

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

The Cheng family is good, so who is at fault is Liu Muyun, who encourages everyone to stick to the so-called honor.

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

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

The next day dawned, Cheng Dalei set the table again, and today a few more people went up the mountain, but the people headed by Liu Muyun solidified stronger.

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

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

Cheng Dalei actually understands that the persistence of these people 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 me this step. No matter how high you climb, you will fall down for me. It's high, and you climbed it yourself.

"Liu family girl, I really want to talk to Mr. Liu, but you see that I'm so busy here, I really can't go away, let's do it another day, let's do it another day."

Liu Zhi felt a chill in her heart, and had to admit that when Cheng Dalei rescued her from the sky, she was tempted for a moment or two. However, there is no place for tenderness to survive in such a cold confrontation.

She went down the mountain sadly, alone.

By the afternoon, no one had climbed the mountain, and there were only a dozen or so people left at the foot of the mountain.

One side is on the mountain, the other side is down the mountain, everyone can see each other with cold eyes.

When it was about to get dark, Liu Zhi went up the mountain again. Facing her pitiful expression, Cheng Dalei showed the coldness he had never had before. But Liu Zhi's first sentence made him stunned.

"The Liu family is willing to dedicate me to the Cheng family, just asking the Cheng family to be kind, take in the Liu family's young and old, and give them a way to live."

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

Liu Zhi handed over a piece of paper with the effect of giving Liu Zhi to Cheng Dalei in exchange for Cheng Dalei's being able to take in the Liu family's young and old, and below there are paintings of several old people headed by Liu Muyun.

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

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

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

After Cheng Dalei realized this, he was stunned for a long time, and after a while, a confused sentence came out.

"So simple!"
