Just as Lu Linlang was looking around, the bearded man came over with a group of people. They all had weapons in their hands, and they were all men. They were wearing clothes made of rabbit fur and wolf skin. The two people in the front were the most conspicuous, they were wearing tiger skin.

The tiger, no matter what time it is, is the symbol of the king of the forest. Ordinary people would be scared if they saw a tiger, but there were two people here wearing tiger skins. They were definitely not ordinary people.

"Chief Qiu, you're here! We're not bad people, we just want to borrow your passage. Look at the scene you've made, it scared us. How are your children? Are they sick? Let me tell you, this Miss Lu is a formidable figure. They found a way to cure goiter and cured many people. Although my method worked, it wasn't as convenient as theirs."

When Taoist Zhang saw the people coming, he also started to smile. He walked over and the person on the tree had already turned to look in other directions and was no longer as wary of them as before.

"Miss Lu, why are you here?" Qiu Heng followed the clan leaders over and couldn't help but ask when he saw Taoist Zhang introducing Lu Linlang.

When the other mountain people saw that Qiu Heng knew the person coming, they also stared at Lu Linlang.

"Are you Brother-in-law Heng from Sister Qiangwei's family? Everyone, what Taoist Zhang said was indeed true. I am the one who needs to borrow your road this time. We want to go through the mountains to the south. I heard Taoist Zhang say that this is a shortcut. I don't mean to disturb you. I hope you can forgive me. We do have reasons to go south."

Seeing that there was an acquaintance across from her, Lu Linlang spoke directly to the point.

Taoist Priest Zhang also introduced Lu Linlang's situation to the tribe leader wearing tiger skin: "This girl is not ordinary. Her father is the late loyal and brave uncle. He was a first-class warrior against foreign enemies. Unfortunately, he was killed by someone with ulterior motives. Now that the Emperor Daqi has died for his country and the north is in dire straits, Miss Lu is also helpless. She wants more people to live and work in peace and contentment. That's why she is helping the Northwest Army to collect food. Once the food is collected, the Tatars will be defeated.

Miss Lu is a kindhearted person. Since returning to her hometown, Xishan Village, she has been helping the villagers make money. Today's Xishan Village is different from the Xishan Village of the past. She has also taken in hundreds of disaster victims, and she is responsible for their food, clothing, housing and transportation. It's not easy. At such a young age, she is already a hundred times more capable than us old men who have seen the world. That's why I dared to bring her to ask the clan leader for help.

"The Tatars are nothing but clowns who survived by riding horses. How can they deserve such a big fuss? It seems that each generation is really worse than the previous one." The clan leader muttered to himself and called Qiu Heng to question him. The news Qiu Heng got in Xishan Village was the same as what Taoist Zhang said, that this girl was not simple.

"In that case, A'lin, have someone take them along the route outside to the south." The patriarch turned around and gave the order. Another young man in tiger skin stood up. Lu Linlang looked at him. He was eight feet tall, had no beard, and looked very young. However, there was no expression on his face, which made his handsomeness look a little colder.

"Thank you, clan leader, and thank you, brave warrior." Lu Linlang felt relieved when she heard that they agreed readily. She was afraid that they would not agree, which would be troublesome.

"Chief, Young Chief, wild beasts are rampant in this forest. Only you can deal with them. Why don't we help each other out? Young Chief, please help us get out of the forest. We've also brought a lot of fever-reducing medicine, which is most suitable for children. We'll give it to you after we leave the forest."

Taoist Zhang continued to speak. He had the best relationship with these mountain people, so it wouldn't be too abrupt for him to say this. In addition, Lu Linlang wanted to pass through the mountains. These people didn't have any good doctors, and they were most in need of good medicinal herbs, so she prepared them in advance.

"Okay, Alin, you can send them out of the forest." The patriarch agreed after a little thought.

Sending them away would allow them to watch them leave openly. Otherwise, it would be difficult if these people discovered their secret. Taoist Zhang had done them a favor, and they could not repay him with evil. If these people discovered it, they would have no choice but to leave them on the mountain.

Qiu Lin took them away with a group of ten people. These ten people were all big men of seven or eight feet tall. Each of them had a sturdy build and held a weapon in his hand that he was good at. Their aura was so strong that Lu Linlang did not encounter any wild beasts.

They also did not have the opportunity to go deep into the hearts of the mountain people and really see where they live.

Qiu Lin is not a talkative person. He is a good leader. He divided his men into three teams. One team led the way in front, one team stayed in the middle to be on guard at all times, and he led the rest of the people behind.

If Qiu Lin hadn't issued instructions from time to time, Lu Linlang would have really thought they were all dumb.

"Rest in this cave tonight. The mountains are very dangerous at night. It's not safe for you to walk. You can reach the exit in two more days."

After Qiu Lin finished saying this, he took his men to collect firewood. Those men brought their own food, but Lu Linlang still asked people to prepare food for them. She also asked people to collect some firewood nearby. There was a stove built in the cave, which showed that they usually came here to rest or patrol, making it much easier to cook.

When Qiu Lin and others came back with a large firewood, they saw the aroma of food in the cave.

"Young Clan Leader, bring everyone to eat together. You have all worked hard these past few days, and we can't let you eat your own dry food." Lu Linlang personally brought over a bowl of rice. It was rice crust rice cooked in the clay pot she brought, and it smelled very fragrant.

They had never seen such food before, but it was indeed very delicious. Seeing that everyone on Lu Linlang's side had started to eat and Taoist Zhang was also greeting them, Qiu Lin asked his people to join in the eating.

"This steamed bun tastes good after being baked. Come, young clan leader, share some with everyone." Lu Linlang saw that they were all tall and was worried that they would not have enough to eat, so she distributed the steamed buns to everyone. She was fully prepared for this departure.

"Thank you." Qiu Lin looked at the baked steamed bun slices in front of him and a small jar of sauce next to it. He took it with both hands and thanked him.

Qiu Lin took the food out and gave it to the brothers who were patrolling outside. They had just eaten a delicious casserole meal, and now they saw steamed buns, and they all became excited.

"Young Clan Leader, these people are truly amazing. They cook so many delicious dishes even when they're away from home. They really know how to enjoy life. The food we usually eat at home uses the same ingredients, so why can't it taste this good?"

"These people are not simple. You should be careful and don't get tricked. Keep guard well." Qiu Lin was not as excited as his men. He had to protect the safety of everyone he brought with him.
