When the brothers saw Yuan Lai coming out, they refused to agree no matter what and hurriedly stuffed her back into the car.

Finally, the carriage was pushed out, but all ten people were soaked by the heavy rain.

The brothers in the other car could change clothes without any worries, but since there were Yuan Lai and Zhao Li in this car, it was not so convenient.

When the rain stopped, Yuan Lai immediately pulled Zhao Li out of the car and asked the rest of the people to change their wet clothes.

Then Su Deyi followed down.

Two people said goodbye to Yuan Lai. One had something to do, and the other had someone to wait for, so neither could leave with them.

"You're leaving so soon. It's better to leave after you reach Leshan Country."

"With two more people feeding you, your journey will be more difficult. Besides, we are not wanted, and the people of Chu Liang can't do anything to us." Su Deyi spoke very logically, but he held Yuan Lai's hand tightly.

"I'm just a messenger. I'm afraid that if I leave for too long, I will miss the person I'm waiting for." Zhao Li held Yuan Lai's other hand, reluctant to let go.

It’s strange to say, although they had just met, she always felt as if she had known these two people for a long time.

These two people also acted as if they were very familiar with her.

I don’t know who I saw through her.

"Then be careful on the road. When you return to Chuliang, avoid those people, lest they fail to catch you and take their anger out on you."

After seeing the two off, Yuan Lai sat under the tree feeling lost.

She took food out of her pocket and found a note inside. She opened it and saw the beautiful handwriting, "If you are pursued, you can hide in Cangkong Mountain. There is a cloud-like tree in it, which is frightening to see."

What tree makes you scared?

Yuan Lai couldn't help but think of the towering tree in the cave.

"Yuan Lai, let's go!"

After walking for three days, they were still discovered by the pursuers. They had no choice but to abandon another carriage, then turn around and continue moving towards Xihu.

But the pursuers split into several groups, determined to catch them.

"Ahhh! Is this ever going to end?" Li Gengyun roared out the window.

"Dog emperor." Chen Shaoxi cursed in a low voice.

Jiang Dunhao pulled Li Gengyun into the carriage and joked, "You can scold him but you can't scold me. After all, he and I look a lot like each other."

Lu Zhuo immediately stood up, half bent over and hugged Jiang Dunhao, "What are you talking about! Big brother! Who dares to scold you? I'll be the first to disagree."

Because there was only one carriage left, the carriage that could seat eight people was now filled with ten people, plus some clothes and food, so it was quite crowded.

Then they left some space for Yuan Lai, so the others had to squeeze in.

At the Luzhuo station, there was no place to sit back.

"Well, well, well... I'm going to catch the bus."

Yi Bo, who was replaced, saw the packed carriage and nudged Wang Yi Heng, "Go, little brother, sit on your brother's lap and leave this to me."

"Why?" Wang Yiheng stood firm, looking up at Zhao Yibo, "I'm not going. I'll just sit here."

"He Haonan, you go." Zhao Yibo's gaze shifted to He Haonan.

He Haonan twisted his body to avoid Zhao Yibo's hand, "Pick someone to sit with! You're so light!"

Zhao Yibo had no choice but to sit in the middle space. "It's pretty good here."

Zhao Xiaotong stood up and said, "Yibo, sit here with me. I'll go accompany my second brother."

The carriage was carrying a heavy load and could not move fast, so it was soon caught up by the pursuers.

There was only one carriage left, which had to be abandoned. Everyone carried clothes and dry food and went into the mountains to hide.

Fortunately, Yuan Lai observed that Cangkong Mountain was not far ahead. As long as they entered Cangkong Mountain, they would be safe.

Zhao Xiaotong silently carried more clothes on his back and walked at the back.

Li Gengyun slowed down his pace, retreated to the same position as Zhao Xiaotong, and took some bags from him.

"I'm fine."

"I'm mainly good at climbing mountains and walking fast." Li Gengyun walked briskly and soon reached the front.

Zhuo Yuan panted, "Li Gengyun, can't you slow down? It's obvious."

"That's right," Li Gengyun turned around and stopped to wait for the people behind him, "You guys can't do it. This is not even a thousand meters."

"One thousand meters!" Chen Shaoxi was shocked. "How high is Jinghong Mountain?"

Jiang Dunhao replied, "About 3,000 meters."

Chen Shaoxi lay on the tree and refused to move forward no matter what. "At least Jinghong's mountain has man-made stairs. This is pure climbing!"

Yuan Lai looked at the Cangkong Mountain right before his eyes and encouraged everyone's morale, "We're almost there, only 500 meters left."

Lu Zhuo laughed, "That's what I said ten minutes ago. We've been climbing for so long, and there are still 500 meters left?"

Yuan Lai walked to the front of the team and pointed to the stream ahead. "Across this stream, another 500 meters ahead is the valley, all flat land."

In order to survive, everyone had to grit their teeth and persevere. Just when everyone was about to die of exhaustion on the mountain, a large area of ​​terraced fields appeared before their eyes.

"arrive!"

Yuan Lai finally saw the familiar scenery.

"There's a cave right in front of us. It can completely shelter us from the wind and rain!"

When your feet step on flat ground, your heart will feel at ease.

The brothers entered the cave, unloaded their belongings, and found a place to rest.

Wang Yiheng couldn't rest for a moment and immediately explored the cave out of curiosity.

He must be young and in good health to be able to withstand the hardship, so he can become full of energy so quickly.

Yuan Lai believes that he is only a few months older than Wang Yiheng, but his physical fitness is no match for him at all.

Wang Yiheng stopped under the Yunxiao tree, as if he had discovered a treasure.

"Come here quickly! There are good things here!"

The others stood up and gathered around.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Snake, snake, snake!"

"My goodness!"

"what!"

"Snake skin, just snake skin."

"Who stepped on my foot?!"

"Get it away! Stay away from me, disgusting thing."

"Don't be afraid."

“Lots of snakes, including pythons!”

"Hey? We've seen this snake before in Jinghong! Isn't it the colorful, glowing snake? I didn't expect it to be here too."

The screams were endless, and the brothers took a big step back, with expressions on their faces as if they had been hit hard.

But curiosity eventually overcame fear, and soon several heads gathered around the Cloud Tree, chattering and discussing.

Those who could not overcome their fear took the initiative to pick up branches and dry leaves to make a fire.

Wang Yiheng went to explore the small cave and picked up some strange-shaped stones.

When he moved the big rock away, he found an unconscious man.

"There's someone here! He has a beard."

After feeding Little Moustache some water, he woke up and saw so many people in front of him, and he was so scared that he kept shrinking back.

"Don't hit me! Don't hit me!"

He Haonan and Chen Shaoxi held down Little Mustache's hands to prevent him from scratching and hurting himself.

"We're all good people! We don't eat or beat people! Calm down." Wang Yiheng squatted in front of the mustache man and gave him some more steamed buns. After the mustache man calmed down, he continued to ask, "Where are you from? What's your name?"

The man with the mustache choked up and said, "You can just call me Zhuangzhuang. I'm from Xihu. I was chased by that bastard Lu Zizhou and had nowhere to escape, so I took refuge here."

Lu Zizhou is a demon tamer, so Zhuangzhuang is a monster.

The brothers had never seen a real monster, so they kept asking Zhuangzhuang to perform transformation or teleportation.

Zhuangzhuang couldn't stand being entangled and immediately turned into a yellow and white puppy.

"Wow! It really can transform!"

Several people couldn't let go of Zhuangzhuang.

"No, if I change again, Lu Zizhou will find me." Zhuangzhuang tried to divert his brothers' attention with delicious food.

Jiang Dunhao and Zhao Xiaotong gathered around the fire, took out some dry and hard cakes and skewered them on tree branches to roast.

Zhuo Yuan and Zhao Yibo salted the fish they had forked earlier, wrapped it in leaves, and placed it on the burning hot stones.

Lu Zhuo and Li Gengyun sat at the exit of the cave, far away from Yunxiao Wood.

Li Hao sat aside feeling unhappy.

Yuan Lai asked, "What's wrong?"

"I was thinking about the red envelope. Time was too tight and I didn't take it out. I'm a little worried that it has been beaten." Li Hao was tidying up his clothes absentmindedly. The colors were mixed up and he couldn't tell the inside from the outside.

Yuan Lai blocked Li Hao's hand to prevent him from getting hurt.

Kicking away the thorny branch, Yuan Lai was also worried about the red envelope, but now was definitely not the time to go back.

"After I settle down, I will go back to receive the red envelope."

Chu Liangguo's target was not her, and she knew Su Deyi and Zhao Li, so she could escape at any time, and she could also redeem Jin Buyao by the way.

Li Hao's eyes sparkled, "I'm going too!"

"No, it's better for you to stay in the cave and hide away from the limelight."

After a quick meal, Yuan Lai grabbed a backpack, packed some baked bread, and took a few bottles of water on the road.

After leaving Cangkong Mountain, it is still the familiar road. Turn left and you will reach Xihu, and turn right and you will reach Chuliang.

The brothers who stayed in the cave began to split into teams to continue exploring this huge cave.

There was a small stream gurgling among the rocks. Li Gengyun and Zhao Yibo used some stones and branches to block the downstream so that there would be sufficient water in the cave.

Walking up along the collapsed rock pile, I actually found several small caves that could be used for sleeping.

"Let's divide the rooms." Zhao Xiaotong recorded the specific location and internal structure of the small cave.

Jiang Dunhao suggested, "Let's go through the steep back door. Room 1, Room 2, Room 3."

"No, no, no." Wang Yiheng and Chen Shaoxi stood up with their hands raised in protest, "Divide it again!"

Zhuo Yuan smiled helplessly and said nothing.

Lu Zhuo looked at his two younger brothers in shock, "What's the matter? Don't you want to live with us? You two are trying to cause a split!"

"Well, let's have a democratic vote and write down on a piece of paper who you least want to live with!" Li Gengyun clapped his hands and laughed.

He Haonan grabbed Li Hao and pointed at Li Gengyun, adding fuel to the fire. "Li Gengyun, just tell me who you least want to share a room with? There are only three of us in Room 2. I'm still Yibo, and I'm still the eldest brother. You have to tell me! Speak clearly."

Because of one sentence, all firepower was concentrated and everyone was curious about this question.

"It's been three months. I don't want to pretend anymore." Zhao Yibo smiled as he stood outside the war zone.

Li Hao clapped his hands to stop the farce, "Let's play rock-paper-scissors. Life and death are determined by fate."

"Hey!" Zhuo Yuan waved vigorously from a high point. "There are caves over here too. There are so many, more than enough for everyone. What are you fighting about?"

The brothers gathered towards Zhuo Yuan, and sure enough, there was another cave.

"Okay, there's no need to argue now. Let's each sleep in a room." Li Hao seemed very regretful.

Jiang Dunhao suddenly thought of a question, "Where does Yuan Lai live?"

Zhao Xiaotong said, "How about this, let's clean up these caves first, then count how many there are, and then discuss how to live in them and how to use them."

So everyone started to form an assembly line to carry out the gravel.

The gravel piled up uniformly at the edge of the cave can provide a certain shielding effect.
