Afternoon.
After the team had gathered, they began to retreat from the Bottle Mountain.
Earlier, Chen Yulou, Zhe Gushao, and Old Crooked Luo had discussed and decided to retreat to the east of Old Bear Ridge with their troops.
There was a large flat ground there with a mortuary built on it where they could rest temporarily.
They just needed to gather enough troops and equipment to take down Bottle Mountain.
After walking for almost two hours, Chen Wenxuan finally saw the shadow of the mortuary.
The mortuary did not look small. It was similar to a three-yard courtyard house. It was overgrown with weeds and had been abandoned for a long time.
In the evening, it was really scary to look at it from afar.
However, all the strongmen present were veterans who had fought all year round. They were used to seeing dead people.
Even Old Crooked Luo was a warlord addicted to fighting. His soldiers were no strangers to coffins and the dead.
Sleeping in the mortuary was better than sleeping in the forest full of poisonous insects and beasts.
As soon as they entered the mortuary, Old Crooked Luo shouted.
"Little Yang!"
"Start the stove to cook and light the lights at the same time. Don't leave a black hole inside and outside!”
The last time he spent the night here, he had already made a big fool of himself. Today, he had to be prepared to avoid embarrassing himself in front of so many people.
After instructing his subordinates, Old Luo looked at Chen Yulou and grinned.
"Brother Boss, we're already here.”
"Earlier, you said that you had a way to deal with the centipedes in the mountains. Why don't you tell your brother now?”
Chen Yulou's lips curled up as he waved his folding fan and laughed.
"Don't worry, Commander Luo.”
"You're just a poisonous insect. You can't chat."
Seeing Chen Yulou's confident look, Elder Luo was overjoyed and extended his hand to greet him.
"That's right. What kind of person is Brother Boss? I, Old Crooked Luo, admire him. Brother Boss, please come in!”
"Marshal Luo is too polite."
Chen Yulou didn't stand on ceremony. After a few pleasantries, he walked into the temple hall with a straight back, looking like a boss.
Chen Wenxuan followed behind with a look of disdain.
This big brother of his was really arrogant. If it weren't for him, a person called Blind Chen would probably appear in the fortune-telling shop in a few years.
After ordering his subordinates to light the lamps, Elder Luo glanced around the temple hall and relaxed.
"Damn it, this place is still so scary.”
"Brother Boss, can you tell me now? I can't wait!”
"Alright, everyone sit down first."
Chen Yulou's face turned serious as he waved at the crowd.
The people in the temple hall were the leaders of this trip to Bottle Mountain. Those with lower status didn't enter.
Chen Yulou only opened his mouth after everyone had perked up their ears.
"Everyone, I don't think I need to say more about the situation in Bottle Mountain. What we're dealing with is a centipede with six wings, a group of small centipedes, and possibly a Corpse King.”
"There's no need to worry about the Corpse King. Even if there really is one, it's fine. We have the advantage in numbers, and we can suppress it with a wave of our hands.”
"The six-winged centipede is not too troublesome. We already know the weakness of that beast. As long as we set a trap in advance, we can kill it in one fell swoop.”
"The most troublesome thing is those little centipedes. Those centipedes are most likely to kill at the sight of blood. In addition, their numbers are difficult to estimate.”
"But no matter how many centipedes there are, they are still centipedes. There are plenty of ways to deal with them.”
"We only need to collect a large amount of medicinal powder that can repel insects and buy a large number of roosters. When we put them in the tomb, those little centipedes will definitely be scared out of their wits.”
Bang!
Suddenly, Elder Luo slammed the table and stood up with his eyes wide open.
"High!"
"Truly impressive!"
"Centipedes are afraid of chickens. Even a child knows this, but I, Old Luo, didn't think of it.”
"Tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to loot all the villages nearby. I guarantee that not a single chicken that can crow will be left behind!”
The more Old Crooked Luo spoke, the more excited he became. He gave Chen Yulou a thumbs up. He could see the mountains of gold and silver waving at him.
"Marshal Luo, don't cause any more trouble."
Chen Yulou shook his head, signaling Old Crooked Luo not to be anxious.
"There are many villages near Old Bear Ridge. The situation is complicated, and there are many villages with people and guns.”
"Although we are not afraid, let's not cause any more trouble. The most important thing is to take down Bottle Mountain as soon as possible.”
"Those villages lack salt, goods, and clothes. We only need to use these things to exchange for them.”
When Old Crooked Luo heard this, he immediately became excited and nodded repeatedly.
"Brother Batou is right."
"The most important thing is to topple the bottle mountain.”
If he could get what he wanted with some salt and clothes, then he wouldn't be willing to waste bullets. It was a thankless effort.
He sat back down on the chair, but he felt that he could not sit still. He patted his head and stood up again. After leaving a sentence, he ran out of the house.
"I'll make the arrangements now and get it done as soon as possible.”
Chen Yulou was not surprised. He shook his head helplessly and looked at Hua Maguai who was standing behind him.
"Kidnapper, go and make the arrangements."
"Tomorrow, bring a group of brothers and Marshal Luo's men with you. Keep an eye on them and don't cause any trouble.”
Old crooked Luo was like this. He couldn't control things. Usually, he relied on his subordinates to have guns and had always been domineering. He really didn't feel at ease leaving things to Old crooked Luo.
Hearing Chen Yulou's instructions, Hua Magai did not hesitate and immediately went to do it.
