Just as we entered the edge of the deep mountains, the terrain was relatively flat and we reached the end of the fifty-mile mountain road before the sun set.

Yunhe struck the gong. Everyone had gotten used to it in the past two days. One strike of the gong meant that they could rest for half an hour. Two strikes meant that they could rest and set up camp. This place was the resting point that had been agreed upon before. Everyone was too tired to care about anything else. They sat on the ground to rest for a while before getting up to set up the tent and cook.

When everyone had almost rested, the gong rang three times again, which meant that each family needed to send a head of the family to attend the meeting. This time, the one who had the advantage was not Yunhe, the village chief, but Yun Chenyang.

Seeing that most people had arrived, Yun Chenyang stood on a high place and said solemnly, "I called everyone here this time to tell you something.

Master Cheng's guards discovered that there are several caves about four or five miles away from here. Footprints of large wild animals and black manes were found around them, so there must be large wild animals there.

It is not clear what it is exactly. It could be a black bear, a wild boar, or even a pack of wolves.

For everyone's safety, Master Cheng decided to lead everyone to eradicate the wild animals there. This is all voluntary, and we won't force you. But let me make it clear first, if there are wild boars there, it's ok, there will be no danger. If there are blind bears or wolves, then the participants may be in danger.

However, Master Cheng promised that no matter what the prey is, the spoils will be divided equally among the participants. If we can hunt a blind bear, the bear skin can be sold for one or two hundred taels of silver in the city. The participants today will become members of our hunting team in the future, and we will take everyone with us when we go hunting next time.

This is different from patrolling. After all, it is a dangerous thing. Everyone go back and discuss with your family. If you want to participate, come and sign up. We will wait here for a quarter of an hour. We will not wait for you after the time limit. "

The crowd immediately went wild and said all kinds of things.

Wu Erjia's sharp voice seemed very abrupt at this time, "What? There are blind bears and possibly wolves? You can't let my man go, it's too dangerous. Isn't the Yun family cheating us? There are so many of us here, and we can light a few more fires at night, so that beast won't dare to come. Why bother to provoke that beast?"

Third Aunt couldn't stand Wu Erjia's character, who only knew how to take advantage and didn't want to work hard. "Wu Erjia, is there something wrong with your ears? Didn't you hear Yang Ge'er say that you volunteered to participate? What do you mean by my Yun family cheating you? The Yun family didn't ask your Wu family to follow behind? If your family doesn't go, don't stare at them with jealous eyes when the meat is divided. Chunwang, go to Yang Ge'er to sign up. We Yun family members can't fall behind. Even if there is danger, the men of our Yun family must advance and retreat together."

"Third aunt is right. There are no cowards among the men in our Yun family. If there is any danger, our Yun family will stand together." An aunt from the Yun family also echoed.

Soon, 18 men from the Yun family came out. Except for the family of Yun Si's grandmother, who had no adult men, there were two families whose men were too old or in poor health. They didn't come out because they didn't dare to go. They were afraid of causing trouble for everyone. In this way, there were people from the Yun family, including Yun Chenyang and Yun Duo.

Hunter Zhao also stepped forward and said, "Ercheng, you come with me. We have some experience in hunting and can help. Dacheng and Sancheng, you stay here and take care of the family."

The three adults answered in unison, "Okay, Dad."

Xu Dayu also settled his brother and sister-in-law and entrusted them to an aunt he knew well, and stepped forward, "Chenyang, I'll go too."

Yun Chenyang also had his thoughts. With so many people, including his sister and Cheng Yuheng, there shouldn't be any danger. Da Yu was his good friend, and if he could go back and get some meat, it would be good to improve the food. However, in order to show others, he still advised, "Da Yu, it might be dangerous to go back. Your brother and sister are still young, why don't you stay?"

Xu Dayu said without hesitation: "Chenyang, we are good brothers. If there is danger, we will advance and retreat together."

Yun Chenyang patted Xu Dayu on the shoulder and said, "Good brother, let's advance and retreat together."

"Chenyang, you are still my apprentice. How can you be without your master when there is danger? Don't worry, your master is with you." Lin Gao also stood on Yun Chenyang's side.

Yun Chenyang was very touched. Although he knew there was no danger, he was still moved by everyone's enthusiasm. "Thank you, Master!"

Ten people also came out from Chujia Village, including Chu Xiaoli's younger brother Chu Tieniu. Liu Ye's eldest brother Liu Mancang's son Liu Dalang, who was 17 years old this year, also joined in.

Those who followed temporarily didn't know much about the Yun family and the Cheng family, and were afraid of danger, so no one participated.

Yun Chenyang counted and together with Cheng Yuheng and four guards, a team of forty people was formed.

After Yun Chenyang counted the number of people, he looked at Yun Duo and asked, "Duo'er, there are a total of forty people, how do we arrange them?"

More than 30 young men looked at each other in bewilderment. Shouldn't they ask Master Cheng for instructions? Why ask a little girl like Yun Duo? However, due to Master Cheng's presence, they didn't dare to speak. The others also looked at each other and remained silent. Since they were here, they should just obey the arrangements, no matter who arranged it.
