Du Tianli's brows were furrowed, his cheeks were thin, and the big dark circles under his eyes were almost reaching his chin.
He looked at the two mountains behind him with a distracted gaze, and his back teeth were grinding.
Damn it, if he had known that the Xiao family could run so fast, why would he have gone through the trouble of chasing them through the mountains?
Just follow Commander Zhao to guard the foot of the mountain at the East City Gate.
Looking at a group of his subordinates who were covered in dust, haggard and weathered, Du Tianli felt so upset that he wanted to roar.
How embarrassing it was for him to see that the imperial guards had become a group of savages.
Zong Gaofei looked at Du Tianli's melancholy and angry expression, pursed his cracked lips, and dared not breathe.
The men who followed Zong Gaofei were all anxiously waiting for Du Tianli to give orders.
They were very afraid that Du Tianli would make them wait for another day.
If they wait any longer, they will really not have the strength to walk out of the mountains.
I haven't eaten salt for several days, and the salt from the Rhus chinensis fruit is not enough for so many people.
The key point is that the salt on the fruit of the Rhus chinensis is eaten by the untouchables. It is extremely sour and tastes terrible.
Jiang Xu and others rolled their eyes silently when they saw Du Tianli pretending.
They had been traveling alone with Du Tianli for so many days, and every time Du Tianli looked like he was about to make a big move, he would end up pooping a big pile.
"Do you have any water left? Give it to me..." Du Tianli looked at Zong Gaofei with a gloomy face and stretched out his black hand towards him.
President Gao Fei was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
He looked at Du Tianli, who looked as if he had aged twenty years, and pursed his cracked lips.
"No—no water."
He discovered that the spring pools on the fourth mountain had dried up, so he led his men to speed up their journey.
The fourth mountain is already considered a deep mountain. The spring pools in the deep mountains have dried up, not to mention the mountains behind it.
If you don't hurry up and get out of here, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on any longer.
“Hey~”
Du Tianli's eyes were full of loss, and his black hands fell down weakly.
After a short pause, Du Tianli pulled his dry lips and roared hoarsely,
"Damn it! Everyone, stand up and chase after the Xiao family with all your might."
"I want all the Xiao family members to die!"
"Sacrifice your own family to protect the whole country. Everyone, cheer up and fight for the Daliang Kingdom..."
The more Du Tianli thought about it, the more he felt that all his recent misfortunes were caused by the Xiao family. As long as he could eliminate the Xiao family, he would be able to rise to prominence.
Thinking of this, Du Tianli suddenly felt a little strength in his body.
He supported the curled-edge sword, gritted his sore back teeth, and led the way forward.
Zong Gaofei stared at Du Tianli who had suddenly gone crazy in a daze, hesitated for a moment, and followed him with his heavy legs.
It's so unlucky. They have been traveling for almost two hours and just when they were about to take a rest, they have to set off again. They really don't treat them as human beings.
Jiang Xu curled his lips and raised his eyelids to glance at Sang Dasheng.
Jiang Xu's disdainful look
(A look of disdain)
The two looked at each other and rolled their eyes in disdain and disgust.
Come on, Du Tianli is their leader after all, so just hurry up if he tells us to.
What is this, "I want the Xiao family to die" (squeaky voice with pinched throat)
Ugh~ Who knows who will die.
They are a group of people who are like starving ghosts, with disabled bodies and weak wills. Are they sure that they will not die if they catch up with the Xiao family?
"Don't walk so fast, wait for me..."
Jiang Xu grabbed Sang Dasheng and winked at him. The two of them deliberately slowed down their pace, hung at the end of the team, and followed slowly.
Only a fool would rush to his death.
He has elderly parents and young children to take care of, so the most important thing is to keep his life.
The ghost sacrifices his small family to protect the whole community. Why should he sacrifice his small family? That small family is his home. Why don’t he sacrifice yours?
Sang Dasheng raised his eyebrows, immediately understood his brother's good intentions, and slowed down his pace.
"After we're a little further apart, I'll take you to catch some snakes. I saw several snake holes nearby..."
Sang Dasheng leaned close to Jiang Xu's ear and whispered.
Jiang Xu's eyes lit up and he nodded.
After they caught the snake and stole it to eat, they were delayed and got further away from Du Tianli and his group.
This time, Du Tianli was really trying his best to hurry on his way. When he was hungry, he ate leaves and grass, and when he was thirsty, he endured it.
I would rest for a quarter of an hour at most and then continue on my way. I didn’t even think about sleeping at night and just kept on going.
The two mountains behind are close to the villagers, and the wild grass on the mountains has almost been removed. We will be hungry if we rest, so it is better to just continue on our journey.
All Du Tianli could think about the whole time was the scene of him being promoted after ambushing the Xiao family.
Only in this way can he travel as fast as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
The journey was supposed to take at least three days, but he gritted his teeth and led his brothers to complete the journey in just one day.
The team of 60 people dragged themselves out of half the hill.
The people following Du Tianli were urged by him and could only grit their teeth and move forward.
The soles of his feet were rubbed until they bled, so he chewed some wild grass and applied it to the affected area, then continued limping on his way.
The smarter ones would fall behind and follow Jiang Xu and his group, walking and resting from time to time, just keeping within Du Tianli's sight.
Even the donkeys in the village don't work so hard.
They have to keep their spirits up so that they can have a chance to fight when they encounter the enemy.
People like Du Tianli are just going to die...
