It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 268
The subordinates dispersed, temporarily sneaking into the forest to hide.

Cheng Dalei took Xu Shenji, Qin Man, Li Xingzai, and Fudele to explore the terrain.

Going forward, there is a vast pool of water, with a radius of 100 miles, rolling reeds, and a small island in the middle of the water.

"It's a good place to recuperate.

" Cheng Dalei sighed secretly.

"This is the tributary of the water of the big river.

The big river flows through here, and a water bank is washed away.

The island in the middle is called Snake Island.

It was Mo Mingmi's water village at first, but it is now abandoned.

It is said that this island was abandoned.

At that time, Mo Mingmi kept a lot of poisonous snakes on it, and now more than ten years later, there are poisonous snakes all over it, I have gone up to see it, the scene is terrible.

""You still have the courage to go up.

" Cheng Dalei had to look at Li Xingzai with admiration: "How do you go up?

""There is a place that is about five miles offshore, and you can swim there.

" Li Xingzai.

"Come on, let's go up and have a look.

"Li Xingzai led the way and came to the shore near the island.

Cheng Dalei, Qin Man, and Li Xingzai all had good water quality, but neither Xu Shenji nor Fudler knew water.

On Snake Island.

Once on Snake Island, Li Xingzai suddenly became nervous, and cautiously told Cheng Dalei and the two: "Be careful, there are poisonous snakes everywhere, if you get bitten, your life will be given here.

"Qin Man picked up a long stick to beat the grass and startled the snake, and the three of them did not dare to go to the center of the island, only to see a flower-skinned snake sprang out of the grass with the beating of the stick.

These snakes are not afraid of people, and when they come out, they stick out their snake letters.

Cheng Dalei's sword was very fast, and in a short period of time, he cut more than a dozen snakes with the thickness of wicker into two pieces, and only then did the snake group disperse.

Li Xingzai showed a surprised look, then smiled and said, "Is this sword easy to use?

""Let's make a living.

" Cheng Dalei put away the sword and asked Qin Man, "Do you recognize what kind of snake it is?

""The snakes in the north are different from the snakes here.

I don't recognize them.

" Qin Man said solemnly, "But it must be poisonous, extremely poisonous.

"Cheng Dalei stood on the shore and looked at the small island.

The island was overgrown with trees, green grass, and there were a few buildings in the distance, but he didn't dare to go any further, so he couldn't see it clearly.

"Let's go, withdraw.

" Cheng Dalei waved his hand.

The three of them swam and left Snake Island again.

They were so tired that they were out of breath and collapsed on the shore without the strength to stand up.

"Master, what's the situation on the island?

""Snake Island is surrounded by water, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The terrain on the island is flat and suitable for planting.

It is a good place to set up camp, but there are too many snakes on the island.

" Cheng Dalei sighed and suddenly cursed: "The last name is Mo.

It's really not a thing, and a group of poisonous snakes are put in places where they don't want to cause harm to people who come after.

""The key is how to drive the snake away?

" Cheng Dalei muttered, and suddenly turned over: "What is the snake afraid of?

"Qin Man and Li Xingzai answered almost in unison, "Realgar?

"Cheng Dalei nodded and sat up straight: "Where is the realgar?

"Several people closed their mouths, and no one could answer the question.

Cheng Dalei returned to the camp, and the next step was to spread the people out and look at the towns in the radius, where there were realgars.

What Cheng Dalei had to do was to wait.

"The big boss, the big boss...

" When the brothers all dispersed, Xu Shenji found Cheng Dalei: "I suddenly remembered something, we can't live on the island?

""Why?

" Seeing that Xu Shenji was so anxious, Cheng Dalei had to get serious.

"You're guilty of a place name.

""Uh……""We are Toad Village, and your nickname is Toad King.

This snake is the natural enemy of toads.

When we go to Snake Island, don't we fall into a trap?

"Cheng Dalei was speechless, if he said that before, he was a staunch materialist.

But recently, it is hard for Cheng Dalei to say that he doesn't believe it at all.

But you can't give up this island just because of a name.

It's not easy to find a suitable place.

Cheng Dalei suddenly moved in his heart and said, "Okay, if someone else brought it up, maybe I really have to think about it, but since you said it, this island is not a place of great evil, but it may be a place of great good fortune.

""Master, you have to think twice, you must not be impulsive.

""Yeah, I know.

" Cheng Dalei said, "I'll change its name when I look back.

If it really doesn't work, I'll ask another Taoist priest to do the practice, so you can rest assured.

"When Xu Shenji was about to say something else, Cheng Dalei got up and left.

Now, most of the brothers have been scattered to find out where realgar is found.

Only a few people were left to be vigilant about the direction of Qinchuan Pass.

Now they have no ability to fight Mo Mingmi, and for the time being, they cannot let the other party know that they have come.

When Cheng Dalei found Li Xingzai, he was roasting a pheasant.

Wrap the pheasant with mud and bake it under the charcoal.

When the moisture is dried, the pheasant inside is fully cooked.

Cheng Dalei watched him smash the mud and tore half of the pheasant for Fordler.

The two cooperated very well.

"Are you very skilled at doing this?

" Cheng Dalei sat down beside him: "I've learned it all this year.

""It's not a year, it's two years.

" Li Xingzai waved his hand: "After Wan'er and I left from Toad Village, Wan'er returned to Chang'an, but I suddenly wanted to go outside to have a look.

I went from Qingniu Mountain to the grassland, on the grassland.

She let goats, milked horses, and did business with traders.

""how do you feel?

""It's terrible.

" Li Xingzai spat out a chicken bone: "How can I stay comfortable in Chang'an, with maids and maids waiting on me, but I just wanted to go and see.

As a result, the Rong clan came over and the empire was defeated like a mountain, so I just I think I am the prince of the empire, how can I not care, I must go upstream and turn the tide.

""result……""As a result, no one paid any attention to me at all, and even arrested me as a liar, making me look like a fool.

""I heard in Chang'an that you ran away.

If you were sent back to Chang'an, you should be fine?

""It's embarrassing to be sent back, isn't it?

I'm the sixth prince anyway, so don't be ashamed.

" Li Xingzai said, he shook his head, and said, "I'll run and escape with everyone, watching the whole film.

The defeated soldiers, the death of the soldiers, I thought, maybe the problem is not the Rong clan, but something wrong with the empire.

""I just left this year, look, I have traveled a lot of places, I have seen peasants who work all day, hard laborers, and bullies and nobles who use their power to bully others.

I found that whether rich or not, powerful people I still don’t have the right, and I’m not happy.

As for the answer to the question, I still haven’t found it…”Li Xingzai shook his head, and the dejected expression on his face at this moment made him look like an imperial prince.

"Cheng Dalei, where do you think the empire's problem is?

"
