Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold appears to have been cleaved in two on three sides by a divine axe, with sheer, bottomless abysses. On the other side, however, there is a path, which also looks as if it has been split open, with a thin line of sky in the middle and towering cliffs on both sides.
If we really want to attack, we don't need any weapons. We just stand on top and throw stones down. As many as come, they die, until the place is full of corpses.
This is also the main reason why the government did not take action.
The cost was too high.
The Black Eagle Mountain stronghold's defenses begin at this narrow pass, and beyond that, local mountain dwellers familiar with the area frequently come and go.
Chu Jinjin changed into coarse cloth clothes, bought a donkey, and dressed up as a young wife. Although it was her first time here and she didn't know about the security situation outside Black Eagle Mountain Village, many principles were the same.
After silently observing the terrain for a moment, Chu Jinjin tugged on the reins, and the donkey obediently walked towards the hillside not far away.
The wind seemed to come from nowhere, rustling the leaves. Chu Jinjin closed her eyes, but her ears were constantly perked up.
The sound of a zombie's footsteps is not much different from that of a human's.
Perhaps seeing that she was a single woman, not long after, footsteps came from the woods, and nine burly young men emerged.
Judging from their attire, they are naturally from Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold.
Chu Jinjin reined in the reins, feigning great alarm.
"Don't be afraid, young lady, we mean no harm." The squad leader's voice was gentle, but his eyes were sharp as he scrutinized her from head to toe. "Which village are you from? Where are you going?"
There were many people living in the mountains, but this young woman was a complete stranger.
Chu Jinjin was prepared and timidly pointed behind her: "I am from Douhu Village. I am on my way back to my parents' home and I accidentally got lost."
As she spoke, Chu Jinjin stretched out her long legs and jumped down in a very alluring pose—her legs were slender and long, with excellent curves.
The group of mountain men had never seen such a scene before, and their eyes immediately went blank.
Chu Jinjin suddenly wondered what Zhan Qin's reaction would be if he saw this.
He'd probably be sulking for half a day but wouldn't dare say anything.
The squad leader swallowed hard, his eyes unwilling to blink.
Chu Jinjin was testing the waters to see if the people of Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold were really as Jie Du had said. If they truly had malicious intentions, she wouldn't mind changing her impression of Jie Du.
In this desolate wilderness, with a beautiful, single young woman in Black Eagle Mountain stronghold territory, it was the perfect place to do something.
Chu Jinjin suddenly stumbled and fell headfirst into the arms of the squad leader.
Squad leader: "......."
He instinctively reached out and held her in his arms, embracing her soft, fragrant body.
Chu Jinjin said in a coquettish voice, "Oh dear, I twisted my ankle. This big brother—your chest is so firm and bouncy."
The squad leader blushed deeply: "..."
His whole body was numb and stiff, and he felt nothing at all, except for a slight sensation coming from his waist.
Having succeeded and tested the waters enough, Chu Jinjin swayed as she led the donkey, then gave a charming smile and a killer turn of events.
Squad leader: "...Slow down, young lady."
Despite all that seduction, nothing actually happened? Chu Jinjin was both satisfied and dissatisfied. She was dissatisfied because she hadn't succeeded; perhaps she wasn't charming enough.
After walking away, she quietly opened her hand, revealing a roughly embroidered purse inside.
That squad leader's.
In the apocalypse, being able to steal is considered a basic skill.
I walked around the hill surrounding the gate of the stronghold and encountered three patrol teams. Without exception, I failed to entice them and only managed to steal their purses.
The guards of Black Hawk Mountain Stronghold can only be described as barely qualified. This is related to the members' backgrounds. They received training halfway through their training and the time was insufficient. They can deal with ordinary people, but if they were to face the government's soldiers, it would be hard to say.
Chu Jinjin's next goal—to infiltrate the mountain stronghold!
This method won't work. Only people from Black Hawk Mountain Stronghold can enter and exit, and she will definitely be questioned. Forcing her way in won't work either; the stones that fell from the sky are no joke.
Chu Jinjin had already planned to find a grove of trees and sleep until dark.
There is no moon tonight.
The night was almost pitch black, with visibility limited to just a few meters. This was Chu Jinjin's most familiar territory!
She silently reached her feet, put on specially made gloves, and began to climb.
Meanwhile, Black Hawk Mountain Village was gripped by panic.
Jie Du looked at the people kneeling below with a solemn expression and said in a low voice, "Tell us in detail what happened to that young lady, what she said, and what she did, without omitting any details."
The story begins with the squad leader who first lost his purse.
After finishing his patrol, he took out his wallet as usual when he ate—it was a love token given to him by a beautiful girl who couldn't do housework.
Not everyone in the mountain stronghold can bring their relatives from their hometown. They have to reach a certain position and serve for a certain number of years, or make contributions. For example, he will have served in Black Eagle Stronghold for three years next year, and then he can bring his family over.
During this time when we can't meet, I can only think of you through familiar objects.
I came up empty-handed!
The squad leader felt like the sky had fallen. He lost all appetite and rushed to his sleeping quarters, thinking he might have left it on his bed.
They searched under the bed thoroughly, but couldn't find it.
At that moment, he still didn't think much about it, wondering if someone might have picked it up.
The squad leader went from begging for his wallet back to cursing, which alerted the second person who had lost his wallet, and then the third.
It's normal for one person to lose their wallet, but it's too much of a coincidence for three people to do so. After chatting for a while, all three of them broke out in a cold sweat. They had all been on patrol that day and had all encountered the same beautiful young woman.
"That young woman didn't speak with our accent, she was probably in her early twenties, and she had a beauty mark on the right corner of her lip." The squad leader tried hard to recall, thankfully he had taken several extra glances at the time and remembered it clearly. "She must have deliberately thrown herself into my arms, Chieftain, have we perhaps encountered a master thief?"
