Alu smiled bitterly and said, "I am not brave enough. I just don't know how powerful this Qianfu Swamp is. After walking a while, I found muddy everywhere. I was unable to move forward and did not dare to move. At that time, I really thought I was going to starve to death in the swamp. Fortunately... I met the village chief."

"Sayesani?"

"Yes, the village chief happened to be right next to the edge of the swamp. Seeing our grandparents and grandchildren trapped there, he guided us to bypass Qianfu Swamp from the mountain road next to..."

Brother Lihan was even more surprised and asked, "Is there a mountain road that can bypass the swamp?" But he thought to himself, if there is such a secret mountain road, wouldn't he find an opportunity to attack Linzhou City?

Seeing him trance, Alu waved his hand and said, "I know what the general is thinking. The mountain road is really rugged and many places need to be climbed with bare hands to get through. The village chief took me with him for about two days before crossing the mountain. If the general wants to take people and horses through, that is impossible."

Brother Lihan was a little disappointed when he heard this and said oh.

Aru said: "Later I learned that the village chief also knew that the fugitives who went south in summer were waiting in the dark side of the swamp. When he saw the Imuran people coming, he led them to take them back to the village. So the general saw that everyone living in the village is the one who has been rescued by the village chief over the years."

"So that's it!" Ge Lihan suddenly realized. No wonder he felt that except Saysani, the rest of the people in the village were all members of the Blade tribe, and they were all escaped slaves of the Blade tribe. But it was impossible to see that such a cold woman could be so thoughtful to people from other tribes.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "I dare to ask my father-in-law, the ruins of the village outside..."

"The village that was originally a fugitive slave was also a fugitive, but after a plague, they all died. But the village chief said that the plague was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster. If you want to avoid man-made disasters, you have to choose the village in a more secret place, so the current village was found. I remember that when I first arrived here six years ago, a group of soldiers from the Blue Sea happened to be near here, just in the village outside, and seemed to want to find out something."

"What to find out?"

"Well, but that's a ruin. They searched for a while and found nothing, so they went back. In addition, I have never seen anyone approaching each other in the years. So when the village chief brought you into the village last night, the people in the village were shocked." Alu seemed to calm down a lot, and he returned to his original smile.

Brother Lihan thought about it carefully. Even if you walk on the rugged mountain and river roads last night, there were many forks during the day. Some roads were not even seen as roads, and it was indeed not easy to be discovered.

"Then... are you going to live here all the time? Don't you want to go back to Imuran?"

Alu smiled and said, "General, we live here, we have food and drink, and our lives are peaceful. What should we do when we go back?"

"But you are Imuranians after all... don't you miss home?"

"Home? General... can fill his stomach and shelter from the rain, and live safely, that's what home is..."

Brother Lihan was silent.

Perhaps this is the helplessness of the Blade tribe. In the tribe of the blood clan, everyone can share what they have to eat, and there is absolutely no one who starves to death.

He suddenly had an impulse and asked, "Dad Aru, then if..."

Alu smiled and stopped his words with his eyes and said, "General, I am grateful for your kindness, but Alu and his grandson now have all you want and no longer ask for more. Look at this child, although he is the child of a fugitive slave, he has been carefree since he was a child and enjoys free and clean food. Even if I am the grandfather, I will be in the soil tomorrow. As long as I think of Saysani who can protect him, I can also close my eyes with peace of mind."

The wisdom of the elderly is like the spring water in a well, the deeper it goes, the clearer it becomes.

Ge Lihan originally wanted to persuade Alu to change his resignation to the blood clan and then give him the identity of a low-level nobleman. Now when he mentioned Saysani, he suddenly realized that Saysani was also a member of the blood clan. Not only did they not change to the blood clan for so many years, but they were not even allowed to mention the difference between races. How could Alu change his mind because of his few words?

What's more, there is nothing wrong with them living in this isolated valley.

Things you think are precious and pursue may be worthless in the eyes of others.

If this "precious" is imposed on others, it will become an unspeakable burden for the other party.

Ge Lihan nodded and smiled at Alu.

"So what Daddy Iaru means, will Saysani live in this village and protect you all his life?"

Alu shook her head: "No, she told us very clearly from the beginning. She may leave at any time or never come back. But she also said that as long as she lived as she had told her before, everyone could live in this village forever."

"Does she have any plans?"

"Actually... she said before leaving the village early in the morning yesterday that maybe she will never come back after leaving."

Yesterday? Never come back? Brother Li Han suddenly remembered the woman mentioned that she wanted to assassinate Zhu Yudan.

"Do you village chief have any deep hatred with the Ming Emperor in Bihai?"

"I don't know this anymore. The people in the village don't know much about the village chief because she almost never talks about her own affairs. Sometimes she sits in the village and looks at the river for a few hours."

"Look at that river?"

"Yes, she said, the creek was very similar to Saisesani, although Saisesani was much wider."

"So you know that Saysani is not her real name!"

Alu smiled and said, "Of course I know that everyone in the village is not using their real name."

"Oh?" Brother Lihan was puzzled.

"The village chief said that since he entered the village, forget everything in the past and give himself a new name, as if he was reborn." : :

Brother Lihan thought to himself that this woman said this, but she could not forget the hatred with Zhu Yudan, and obviously she still remembered some things in the past.

At this time, the child in front of Ge Lihan suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted: "Ah, what a big piece of Difeng grass!"

Alu narrowed his eyes and shook his head and said, "I can't see clearly. Child, since you can see clearly, then take the general over and let's pick it up and take it back."

Ge Lihan asked, "What's the use of this grass?"

The child said happily: "The village chief likes this grass the most. She will use this straw to weave things, and after weaving it, she will take it to Taiye City to sell it."

"You village chief is still going to Taiye City?"

The child blinked and replied, "Yes, our village chief would go to Taiye City every once in a while. She would bring us some novel things and delicious food to us every time."

Brother Lihan turned around and asked, "Dad Alu...are she afraid of being discovered when she goes to Taiye City?"

"She always disguises herself as a businessman. I heard that there are many merchants in Yimulan in Taiye City, so it's not a big deal."

"But she was covered with a scarf and looked like she was not a member of the Blade tribe. You should know that the Imulan people in Taiye City only have Blade tribes, and our blood tribes cannot even go to Linzhou City."

The child did not wait for Alu to speak and rushed to answer: "The village chief rarely wears a face towel. She only wears a face towel when there are outsiders."

"Why is this? Ah, I understand. Is the village chief not good-looking?" Brother Lihan asked deliberately.

The child was obviously very unhappy and pouted, "Hmph, you said bad things about the village chief, I will ignore you. The village chief is not bad. The village chief is the best woman I have ever seen."

Can a seven-year-old child know what it means to be good-looking? Brother Lihan smiled, but he also made sure that although this woman knew that she was also a blood clan, she did not fully trust herself.

She had to go to Taiye City every once in a while, and removed her face towel and disguised herself as a merchant in the Blade tribe, probably to find opportunities to assassinate. There was obviously a shopping mall in the city, but it sounded like she had never had contact with the shopping mall. It seemed that she was a lone wolf.

Well, if I were myself, I wouldn’t want to mingle with the two-faced and three-sworded people from the Blade Clan. This is an ingrained thought in the hearts of almost all the blood clans.

Speaking of which, this village chief must have lived near the capital of the blood clan before, otherwise he would not have been obsessed with the river Sayesani...

Alu and his grandson took Ge Lihan to walk around the valley for a long time. Perhaps because no one hunted the prey in the mountains, they not only grew fat and thick, but also were stunned when they saw people.

Half of the 500 people led by Ge Lihan were once good hunters. When they arrived in such a place, they were like fish in water. However, in just half a day, they killed nearly a hundred big and small beasts, making Alu happy and shouted that they had enough.

When they returned to the village with their prey, Sayesani was standing at the entrance of the village waiting for them. Seeing a crowd of people returning home, he nodded without comment and waved to Ge Lihan.

"Come here."

Golihan obediently walked over, and Sayesani whispered in his ear:

"You go and arrange fifty soldiers, be smart, don't ride horses, go with me tonight."

"What are the arrangements for the hero?"

"The road I came here has been burned down, and I need to re-create a path."

Brother Lihan heard this and asked:

"What plan does the hero have to deal with the Blue Navy?"

Sayesani frowned reluctantly:

"It's too early to tell you now. In short, if you listen to me, just ask them to follow me to open the road."

"Then why not do it now?"

"Now? Can you be sure that Wu Qing is not wandering in the forest now? We burned the road in the forest, and so many of her pursuers were killed. How could the three-faced foxes be willing to give up? I said that it would be evening to dig tonight! Why are you doing so much?"

Ge Lihan could feel that Saysani knew Wu Qing more than he did. He was a generous person. Since her words made more sense, he would not care too much about Saysani's bad temper. He just smiled and replied: "Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
