Chapter 36: Boundless Glory At The Peak

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

With the carriage as a means of transportation, the distance of ten miles was covered in a flash.

After about 15 minutes, the turning point appeared in front of everyone.

At this time, Cheng Ernii was still very excited.

Although she was also in pain from the jolting, she could still weave a bamboo hat with thin wicker while sweetly saying to Mu Sanniang, “Mother, tell me about the tricks of driving a carriage. When I learn it, I can take your place, so you can rest.””Although Cheng Ernii’s temperament was a little off, she was not careless at all.”

Her weaving skills were especially good. When she was in her hometown, she would often weave bamboo baskets, flat bamboo, bamboo baskets, and so on and sell them at the market to supplement her family’s income.

Cheng Dani was not idle, either. Her weaving skills were not as good as Cheng Ernii’s. When she sat in the carriage, she carried a small shallow basket on her legs, and from time to time, she flipped through the honeysuckle that had not completely dried yesterday.

At the same time, she was also holding a needle, thread, and sackcloth in her hands. She was imitating Cheng Ling’s canvas bag to make a satchel. Cheng Ling’s bag opened Cheng Dani’s eyes. “This thing is convenient, much better than a kasaya.”

A kasaya was a kind of carry-on bag commonly used by the ancient people. A wide cloth belt hung down in the middle, which could be directly draped over the shoulder, and a square cloth bag was connected from the two ends to the waist.

To be honest, the capacity of the kasaya was not small, but because the strap on the shoulder was not sealed, the kasaya could easily fall off when people ran, and Cheng Dani felt very unsafe.

The slanted bag was much more convenient. She could carry it in front of her and carry the basket on her back. When running, the shoulder straps could still be worn firmly on the person’s body, which gave Cheng Dani a full sense of security.

“I want to make three more satchels. Let’s all carry these satchels and bring some important things with us,” she said.

What was it?

For example, food like wild vegetable balls and dried meat. And… money.

When they were in the cave, Cheng Ling had secretly given money to her two sisters and Mu Sanniang.

She gave her two sisters thirty wens each and ten taels of silver. At that time, Mu Sanniang was so scared that she clutched the silver tightly, her eyes fixed on Cheng Ling.

“Shush…” Cheng Ling gestured with her hands and turned to look in the direction of Lu County.

Mu Sanniang quickly put the silver away, her lips moving a few times. She had a “tacit understanding” with Cheng Ling about the origin of the silver.

Cheng Ling still had twenty taels of silver, ten taels of gold, and some scattered copper coins.

It was safer for her to keep the majority of her money in her dimensional pocket. In addition, she had been working and living independently for many years in her previous life, so she was used to managing her own finances.

On the other side of the carriage, several people were also not idle.

As Hong Guangyi drove the carriage, Hong Xiaolang sat next to him and copied Cheng Ernii’s method of weaving.

He knew how to weave a basket backpack, but he didn’t do it very well. It was crooked, and some branches couldn’t tie it tightly. However, for a child who had just learned how to weave yesterday, this was already very good.

Shi Hong was sitting there weaving rattan shoes, and Lady Yun was also doing it with him obediently.

After spending so much time in the mountains, their shoes had long been worn out. They had to find new shoes to replace them, or it would be difficult to walk.

The Cheng Family had already had Cheng Ernii weave several pairs of straw shoes and put them in the bag, so they didn’t need to worry about this problem for the time being.

Hong Guangyi led the way in his car. There was a fork in the road to the north, but it led up along a mountain peak.

The west side of the road was clearly a high mountain, while the east side was empty. There were no guardrails or shelter. The road meandered upward, like a sharp knife that forcibly cut into the stone mountain.

“The hanging mountain road!” Hong Guangyi exclaimed.

This was the shortcut that could cut into Yun An County.

If he took this route, he would be able to reach Yun An County at the fastest speed possible. Then, he would be able to reach red cloud city through Yun An County.

However, this road was undoubtedly very dangerous. If he slipped down the slope, it would be a narrow escape.

King Linhai’s army route also clearly indicated that this was a route that had been studied before being helplessly abandoned.

Cheng Ernii, who had been excited all the way, was also a little shocked. She blurted out, “Brother Ling, are we going to take this path? Are you really not doing business with the king of hell?”

Third Aunt Mu immediately spat at her and scolded “Pei pei pei, if you don’t know how to speak, then shut up!”

Cheng Ling got off the carriage and stood at the foot of the mountain road. She looked up and carefully observed for a moment. “It’s not that dangerous. It looks scary now only because the mountain is high, and we’re looking up from the bottom.”

After a pause, she said, “Mother, Eldest Sister, Second Sister, Brother Shi, Brother Hong, if we want to reach Red Cloud City before King Linhai, this road is the most likely to achieve our goal.” If you don’t want to, we can choose another route, but…”

“Let’s go!” Third Aunt Mu said resolutely, “Let’s go this way! “We… we can’t do anything big, but I don’t want to run away anymore.”

At this point, she lowered her voice slightly. “This King Linhai massacred a city. Let’s go faster and report this. If Lord Jun can stop him, then we shouldn’t waste our time.”

“Let’s go!” Hong Guangyi quickly said. Isn’t it just a mountain road? We’ve already experienced a city-wide massacre, so why should we be afraid of this?”

Since he had decided to leave, he had to feed the horse again before going up the mountain.

The two horses that Cheng Ling had snatched could be considered the best battle horses from Kang Ping. One was maroon, and the other was dark brown. They were both well-fed and well-built.

Unfortunately, Cheng Ling didn’t have any good grass to feed them, so she could only lead them to eat some grass on the side of the road and feed them some water.

As for water, everyone brought three bamboo tubes with them. There were also two buckets of water in the carriage. These two buckets of water were the drinking water for the horses.

After feeding the horses, Cheng Ling patted their necks and suddenly hugged them, feeding them a milk candy.

The two horses both liked to eat sugar. When their big tongues rolled over the milk, the brown horse suddenly neighed in joy, and the date red horse followed suit.

Cheng Ling smiled and patted the two horses. “You’ve worked hard, let’s go!”

No one boarded the carriage again. They only let the two children sit in the carriage. Two horses pulled the children, their luggage, and food. The main focus was the five fully-grown roe deers. They began to walk up the mountain.

The mountain path was indeed as Cheng Ling had said. It looked narrow and dangerous when one looked up, but when one actually walked up, it was actually four or five feet wide.

If one walked against the mountain wall and didn’t run around, one usually wouldn’t fall down.

Fortunately, their carriage was small, with a total width of about four feet. As such, the horse could pull the small cart up the mountain road.

When they reached steep places, everyone would help the horse push the cart. Hong Guangyi and Mu Sanniang were in charge of pulling the reins, while Cheng Ling would support them.

When it was almost noon, they walked past the road up the mountain and saw a downslope in front of them.

Hong Xiaolang, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly turned his head and exclaimed, “It’s raining!”

It was raining, but it wasn’t raining where they were. It was raining in the direction they had passed earlier, the south side of the mountain.

Everyone couldn’t help but turn their heads and see a sudden rain in the south. Bean-sized raindrops fell, but they stood outside the curtain of rain as if they were watching another world.
