Yuan Quan's expression at this moment seemed to have let go of all his defenses and looked at Lin Kunlun with full trust. His eyes flashed with a firm and expectant light, as if he had foreseen the glory of the future.

"Brother Lin, now that I have come to this, I will not hide anything." He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to pour out all the secrets. "There are only fifty or sixty of the family soldiers who followed me. In order to avoid being hunted down by the officers and soldiers, they are hiding in a secret mountain stronghold nearby. This wooden house is just a temporary place for me to stay. In case the mountain stronghold is discovered, we will have a way to retreat and will not be caught in one fell swoop."

Lin Kunlun nodded, secretly praising Yuan Quan's caution and wisdom. He smiled and responded, "That's great! With the help of you and your family soldiers, this operation will definitely succeed. Go contact your people first and wait for my news. Once I confirm the location of the grain, I will notify you immediately."

In fact, Lin Kunlun already had a plan in mind. He planned to take this opportunity to get close to Sun Ying and learn about his grain transportation. This batch of grain would become Yuan Quan's capital to start a business. Even if this place really fell into chaos in the future, they would have a force to turn to or seek protection.

To some extent, Yuan Quan's current situation is like a small startup, full of possibilities and challenges. Lin Kunlun's help to him is like a venture capital project, full of unknowns and opportunities.

If he hadn't met Yuan Quan, Lin Kunlun might have had to go to great lengths to help Sun Ying. After all, among the people he knew now, only these two people could stand out in troubled times. However, Yuan Quan's qualifications and abilities were obviously superior. And although Sun Ying didn't take the right path, his courage to take risks was also a considerable asset.

Now, Lin Kunlun intends to combine Sun Ying's capital, Yuan Quan's ability and his loyal subordinates to help Yuan Quan achieve great things. He believes that in the near future, Yuan Quan will emerge in this chaotic world and become a hegemon.

"In that case! Brother Lin, I will take you to meet the family soldiers who have always followed me! From now on, we will be like brothers!" Yuan Quan suddenly smiled and hugged Lin Kunlun!

"Let's go tonight?" Lin Kunlun looked at the sky which was already darkening.

"Let's go tonight! I'll send you down the mountain early tomorrow morning!" Yuan Quan nodded firmly.

"That's a good idea!" Lin Kunlun thought about it and agreed.

"But in order not to make my family worry, let my eldest brother and second brother go back first and send a letter to our family! Just tell them that I will be back early tomorrow morning!" Lin Kunlun thought about it and decided to send a letter to his family, otherwise the family would definitely be worried.

"Okay! Let's send the two brothers out first!" Yuan Quan turned around at this time, put away the bow and arrow and put it on his back.

Lin Kunlun and the other two followed him and walked behind him. With Yuan Quan, a skilled hunter, leading the way, they didn't have to worry about wild beasts.

They passed through the woods along the way, taking shortcuts and paths. Soon they arrived at the hillside where they usually looked for wild vegetables. At this point, Lin Da and Lin Er were completely able to go back by themselves.

"Brother, brother! When you go back, just tell them that I spent the night at Asong's place! Don't say anything else!" You may have instructed them both carefully.

Lin Da and Lin Er had been stunned by their conversation just now, and they nodded repeatedly to show that they knew. After all, what they heard was too shocking. Although they had not read any books, they still vaguely heard from the conversation between the two that their third brother was doing something very big. Something that could cost them their heads. But in front of Yuan Quan, they dared not speak out. They fully believed that Yuan Quan had the ability to kill them at any time. Now that the third brother was leaving with Yuan Quan, they dared not go out and say anything.

Lin Kunlun looked at their eldest brother, who agreed and left before following Yuan Quan into the forest. Along the way, he asked Xiaolu to remember the route carefully. Until he walked through the forest, he couldn't remember the way with his naked eyes. After all, there were tall trees and bushes everywhere.

As the night deepened, the sound of the wind in the forest was like a low movement, accompanied by the occasional chirping of insects and roars of animals, adding a bit of mystery and tension to the quiet night. Lin Kunlun followed behind Yuan Quan, feeling both expectation and a little apprehension. He knew that he was about to step into a world full of unknowns and dangers.

Yuan Quan's steps were steady and powerful, as if he knew every inch of the forest well. He turned back and smiled at Lin Kunlun from time to time, and the firmness and confidence in his eyes calmed Lin Kunlun's anxiety a little.

"Brother Lin, don't be nervous. With me here, everything in this forest will be a help to us." Yuan Quan's voice was particularly clear in the night, as if it had a magical power that could calm people's hearts.

Lin Kunlun nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. He knew that at this time, trust and courage would be the most important support for him on his way forward.

As they continued to go deeper into the forest, the trees around them became denser and denser, and the bushes became more and more dense. Lin Kunlun followed Yuan Quan closely, fearing that he would get lost. And Xiaolu jumped on his shoulders, as if she was cheering him on in her own way.

Finally, deep in a dense forest, they came to a hidden mountain village. The village was built on the mountain, surrounded by tall trees and bushes. Without someone's guidance, it would be difficult for outsiders to find it.

"Brother Lin, this is where we hide." Yuan Quan pointed at the stronghold and said, "The brothers inside are all family soldiers who have followed me for many years. They are loyal and reliable, and they are our important strength."

Lin Kunlun looked around and secretly admired. Although this village was simple, it was full of vitality and vigor. He could feel that everyone here was working hard for a common goal.

They walked into the mountain stronghold, Yuan Quan shouted loudly, and soon several strong men came out to greet them. When they saw Lin Kunlun behind Yuan Quan, they all showed curiosity and inquiry in their eyes.

This cottage is made of simple trees. There are more than twenty cabins in total. There is also a hall-like structure.

Lin Kunlun inquired about these family soldiers! He found that among these family soldiers, there were not only fifty or sixty middle-aged men who looked relatively strong, but also some elderly people, women and children. It seemed that these were the family members of these guests and Yuan Quan!

"Brother Yuan Quan! I, Lin Kunlun, feel your trust!" One can imagine how much risk Yuan Quan took by doing this. If Lin Kunlun went out and reported it to the government, it is very likely that these people would be wiped out.

"My father lost his life because he lost the trust of the dog emperor! I believe in trusting people you employ, and don't employ people you don't trust! Since I consider you a brother, I won't doubt you! If you really report us to the government! I can only say that I, Yuan Quan, was blind and recognized the wrong person!" Yuan Quan said with a smile.
