Chen Xiaobei knew it very well. This canyon is more than ten feet wide and at least twenty feet deep. If you change it to the parameters of the previous life, it would have to be more than seventy meters.
It's such a high steep slope that it would take a lot of trouble for people to climb up without protection. Moreover, if there are people guarding the top, it is almost impossible.
Therefore, the people on the other side who want to cross the canyon with great fanfare are most likely just pretending.
Suddenly he slapped his head.
Yes, after Liu Ce, Ma Biao and the others came over, according to the prince's arrangement, the two ropes were hung at the edge of the canyon.
If you grab the two ropes and come up, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
Thinking of this, he whispered in Liu Rumei's ear, "Be careful of tricks. Let's go to the old chain bridge and have a look."
When Liu Rumei heard this, she thought it made sense, and immediately followed Chen Xiaobei out, quietly heading towards the cable bridge.
Through the faint starlight, he could see a dark shadow moving on the opposite side. Liu Rumei smiled when he saw this scene.
She patted Chen Xiaobei's shoulder approvingly, "Brother Xiaobei, you are really good at predicting things."
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly and said to himself that it was because I had predicted everything, but the objective conditions were here.
Without the help of ropes, it would be more difficult to climb up than to reach the sky.
"Let's go, let's pull up the two ropes to avoid future troubles."
The two quietly came to the edge of the cliff, found the rope, and carefully pulled it up bit by bit.
After pulling it up, Chen Xiaobei took advantage of the shelter from the wind to light the igniter and then lit the torch.
Seeing the sudden light of torches here, Lu Dong, who was conducting the command on the other side, was startled.
Chen Xiaobei held up a torch and shouted loudly towards the other side, "People on the other side are watching. If you want to climb up with the help of these two ropes, I will stop you today."
After saying that, the torch was placed on the rope. After a while, the rope started to burn.
Seeing that his plan was seen through, Lu Dong stamped his feet angrily, "That's it, withdraw your troops."
Hearing that Chen Xiaobei burned the rope, Xiao Jingyun sighed slightly.
"By burning the rope, it will be more difficult for us to judge the opponent's next move."
Chen Xiaobei said in his heart that it was easy to judge but difficult to judge. There were only two ways to get over. Apart from building a bridge, he could only climb with bare hands.
The two sides reached a deadlock, and the confrontation lasted for three days. Zhu Meng lost his temper at first.
He once again summoned the generals in the army to discuss countermeasures, "Now some of the ten princes have begun to send troops here. We can't hold on for long."
After speaking, he turned to look at Wang Long and Lu Dong, "Tell everyone the situation."
Lu Dong told the situation about the scene in detail on the map.
"The canyon is too deep for us to climb up, and it is impossible to take any further action other than a siege."
After listening to his story, military advisor Zhang Liao smiled.
"General, I think we have a better way."
Upon hearing what he said, Zhu Meng's eyes lit up, "Oh, then tell us what else we can do."
"If this continues, we will suffer the consequences of living in an unfamiliar place."
"Although there is that Mahan leading the way, it seems that he is not familiar enough with Qingniu Mountain."
"We might as well post the list again and offer a big reward to see if anyone can lead us through that canyon."
"The focus is on these villages at the foot of the mountain."
Zhu Meng listened and nodded repeatedly, "Well, that makes sense, so let's do it."
Soon, soldiers posted notices overnight in Xiaojia Town, Qingniu County, and at various official road intersections.
This day on Centipede Ridge. Chen Xiaobo once again took the purchase list and drove the donkey cart to Xiaojia Town to purchase.
On the way back from the purchase, I saw such a notice posted on a big tree beside the official road.
When he saw this notice, Chen Xiaobo felt secretly nervous. Looking around, no one picked up the notice and hurriedly returned to Centipede Ridge.
When he came back and saw Cui Hongyu, Chen Xiaobo handed the notice forward.
"Sister-in-law, look at this. The army has posted a reward for someone to lead the way to Qingniu Mountain."
Cui Hongyu took it and read it from beginning to end.
After wiping it twice, he tore the notice into pieces and threw it aside.
"Ignore him, we just need to be ourselves. Tell everyone again that no one is allowed to go down the mountain, otherwise they will be severely punished."
After everyone had distributed the supplies and dispersed, Chen Sanqiu, who was silent next to him, came forward, quietly picked up the torn notice, stuffed it into his sleeves, and returned to his room.
Back in the room, Sanqiu put the notice together and read it over, feeling overjoyed.
Very good.
Chen Xiaobei is on the mountain.
Capturing the prince and capturing Chen Xiaobei are the same thing.
Chen Sanqiu had never been to the mountains and was not familiar with the terrain, but he was familiar with the village.
As long as Chen Xiaobei is forced to take the initiative to go down the mountain, wouldn't that be enough?
Thinking of this, Chen Sanqiu had an idea. Who is the person Chen Xiaobei cares about most? Of course Cui Hongyu and Chen Qiaoer.
Seeing that he was silent here, his wife Liu spoke up, "Husband, what are you thinking about here?"
Chen Sanqiu pointed to the notice on the table, "Look, the opportunity to make a fortune is here."
"But you haven't been to the mountain, and you don't know where they are hiding."
Facing such a question, Chen Sanqiu chuckled and said, "This matter is simple. We just need to capture Chen Qiaoer and Cui Hongyu and send them to Marshal Zhu. We will worry about Chen Xiaobei not coming out obediently."
Upon hearing this, Ms. Liu's head shook like a rattle, "Husband, aren't you asking the villagers to poke our spine? We can't do this."
Chen Sanqiu's eyes widened, "What do you know? Why don't we go back to Hetou Village after we get the reward? We can find a place to be free and live happily for the rest of our lives."
"No, I can't go. You have to go by yourself."
Chen Sanqiu's face became ferocious, and he said through gritted teeth, "Have you thought clearly, I kidnapped him, can you still stay in the village?"
Faced with Chen Sanqiu's hard work, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to finally sigh, "I'm so blind, why did I fall in love with you?"
Chen Sanqiu chuckled and patted his shoulder, "Okay, just think about it. Earning money is better than anything else."
Mrs. Liu looked at him and said, "But I have a condition. I can only catch one."
Mrs. Liu meant to capture Cui Hongyu and keep Chen Qiaoer, but who knew that when she said this, Chen Sanqiu immediately took over and said, "Okay, then it will be convenient to capture a small one."
Seeing this, Ms. Liu knew that her rebuttal was useless, so she could only nod in agreement.
It was going to be dark in the blink of an eye, so Cui Hongyu asked Chen Qiaoer to wait in the room while she patrolled the entire Centipede Ridge to see if there were any loopholes.
Chen Qiaoer was practicing writing in the house. When she heard someone knocking on the door, the unsuspecting child walked up and opened the door.
Chen Sanqiu and Mrs. Liu walked in with smiles.
