The two groups exchanged glances, both somewhat reluctant to speak, until a mustached middle-aged man finally said to Sang Que, "Tangyuan County has already been breached by the Qianshou Army. You'd better not go there."
"What about Dongyang County?" Sang Que pressed on.
Dongyang County is not far from Tangyuan County.
The man replied, "Dongyang County should still be intact. There's a mountain, Cuiyun Mountain, between the two counties that's rather mysterious. Since last year, people have frequently gotten lost or gone missing in that mountain. I suppose the Qianshou Army can't reach Dongyang County for now. Even if we want to go to Dongyang County, it's difficult. We can only risk continuing towards East Yue Mountain and see if we can get into Jinzhou territory."
"Have all the people in Tangyuan County fled?"
