#1091 - Chapter 1091: The Ladi Tribe Migrates North
"Are the people of Yan Land starving?" Cheng Bang asked.
"That's what Grand Duke said." Lie Yan scratched his head, smiling awkwardly.
"Grand Duke, where are we going?" Bai Yuhou asked.
"We will migrate north, uniting more tribes along the way," Cheng Bang said.
"North? Why not go south?" Bai Yuhou asked, puzzled.
The north was not as rich as the south, and he thought there would be more food if they went south.
"There are Yan Land tribes in the north. If we have the chance to unite, our strength will greatly increase," Cheng Bang explained.
"Indeed." Bai Yuhou nodded.
After the plan was decided, Bai Yuhou immediately arranged for the people to embark on the long journey of migration.
Two months later, they arrived north to another tribe's location: Xin Land.
La Land and Xin Land were not far apart, and the two tribes could be called neighbors.
Bai Yuhou was familiar with Cheng Xinhou, the leader of Xin Land, so of course he had to pay a special visit since he was passing by.
However, when they set foot in Xin Land, they immediately noticed that this place was very strange.
What was strange about it?
Almost all the men were missing an ear and seemed to be mute.
"Bai Yuhou, why are the people of Xin Land missing an ear?" Lie Yan asked.
"I don't know either," Bai Yuhou said.
"Aren't you very familiar with Cheng Xinhou here? Haven't you heard of this?"
"No." Bai Yuhou shook his head.
"Alright. I see they all seem very afraid of us. Why is that?" Lie Yan continued to ask.
"I don't know either." Bai Yuhou was still shaking his head.
"Grand Duke, do you know?" Lie Yan looked at Cheng Bang.
"Of course I know. But it's not yet time to say," Cheng Bang smiled mysteriously.
"Not time to say? Grand Duke, is there any danger here?" Lie Yan asked curiously.
Cheng Bang's deliberate mystification aroused Lie Yan's curiosity even more.
"Let's proceed and see," Cheng Bang did not answer.
"... Alright." Lie Yan, seeing that he couldn't get anything out of him, simply stopped asking.
"Ahead is Cheng Xinhou's residence, let's go over," Bai Yuhou led the two to Cheng Xinhou's residence.
"Bai Yuhou, what brings you here?" Cheng Xinhou asked.
"I am leading the people of La Land north on a migration, and I am passing by here, so I came to pay a visit," Bai Yuhou said.
"Oh? Why not stay in La Land and migrate north?" Cheng Xinhou did not quite understand.
"The people of La Land are suffering too much, and it is no longer possible to catch more fish, so I plan to migrate to a new place to live," Bai Yuhou explained.
He didn't say too much, nor did he say where he was going.
This was also for the safety of his tribe.
If his whereabouts were known by Jin Wang Ji, it might bring disaster.
"I see! Well, if La Land has no food, it is indeed difficult to live," Cheng Xinhou said understandingly.
"On the way here, I saw that many men in Xin Land are missing an ear. Why is this?" Bai Yuhou asked curiously.
"Bai Yuhou, this matter has nothing to do with you, does it?" Cheng Xinhou was a little displeased.
This was the matter of Xin Land, and Bai Yuhou should not have asked too much.
"Cheng Xinhou, I am just curious, and have no other intentions," Bai Yuhou explained.
"If Bai Yuhou has energy, he might as well care more about his own people," Cheng Xinhou said coldly.
"Please forgive me, I have spoken too much," Bai Yuhou bowed in apology.
"If Bai Yuhou has nothing else, please leave," Cheng Xinhou issued an eviction order.
"Alright, then we will take our leave." Seeing that the host was not welcoming, Bai Yuhou did not want to stay any longer.
The three of them got up to say goodbye and walked out of the tribe.
"Grand Duke, why did Cheng Xinhou suddenly turn hostile?" Lie Yan asked.
"Of course, he doesn't want outsiders to know their embarrassing affairs," Cheng Bang replied.
"Grand Duke, can't you tell us?" Lie Yan became more and more curious.
Bai Yuhou next to him did not speak, but he was also listening attentively.
"It's not yet time to say," Cheng Bang still said the same thing.
"Alright!" Lie Yan sighed.
After the three of them walked out of the tribe, Cheng Bang suddenly stopped.
"Grand Duke, what's wrong?" Lie Yan turned around and asked.
"Going forward, we will lose our lives," Cheng Bang said.
"Lose our lives going forward? Why?" Lie Yan did not understand.
"The people in the Xin Land tribe are ambushing us ahead," Cheng Bang said.
"Ambush? Are you talking about a trap?" Lie Yan asked.
"Yes." Cheng Bang nodded.
"That's impossible, right? Why would they ambush us?" Lie Yan didn't quite believe it.
People in this period were generally very honest and would not use traps to harm people. For Lie Yan, this was difficult to understand.
