Chapter 36
One morning, as Cheng Dalei usually did, he woke up and first went to check on his vegetable field, the chili peppers were growing well. Afterwards, he inspected the pigs and horses raised by the Mountain Fortress, and a few chicks pecked at bugs on the ground.
Everything was as calm as every other day in the past.
However, for some reason, Cheng Dalei felt uneasy, his left eyelid was twitching incessantly, indicating that something might happen.
"Chief, bad news, bad news..."
At this time, Xu Shenji ran up in a hurry, panting heavily and out of breath.
"What happened?" Cheng Dalei asked.
"Chief, Zhu Family Fort has been wiped out!" Xu Shenji blanched, blood drained from his face.
"Which fort did that?"
"You go see for yourself, in Zhu Family fort, more than thirty people were killed."
"Let's go, show me!"
