Not only was it convenient for them to harvest food at any time, but the tree trunks, branches, and leaves were also essential raw materials for building towns and daily life.

Therefore, in the not-so-dense mandala forest, there were a few roads that were obviously artificially repaired.

One of the straight roads even passed through a mandala tree that more than a dozen strong men could not hug together.
It was called the “King of Trees”, as if a tunnel had been opened up on the tree trunks.
It was a wonderful sight.

Although the path on the right side was obviously easier to walk on than the one on the left.

However, the old bear skin and the round bone club still chose to turn left without hesitation.

Judging from the footprints on the ground, all the fugitives in front of them had made the same choice.

Of course.

The right side seemed to be a smooth path, but to the pursuers, it was also a main path.

Because the mandala tree’s roots were too developed, the forest was not too lush.
It had also been artificially cut down, and there were crisscrossing roads.
To the Centaur warriors, it was not an obstacle at all.

In front of them were the towns of the Bloody Hoof clan.
Even if the defending troops were old, weak, and disabled, it was more than enough to stop these hastily formed troops.

The grassland on the left seemed flat.

However, the grass that was half the height of a person was the best cover for the fugitives.

Moreover, there were many rodents that were good at digging holes on the grassland.
The seemingly flat grassland might be filled with pits.
If the pursuers dared to let go of their speed, they might lose their footing at any time.

The fugitives wanted to go to the border between the Bloody Hoof clan’s territory and the golden clan’s territory from here.
Although they would have to go through more trouble, the probability of escaping was greatly increased.

However, Meng Chao stayed beside the messy footprints for a long time.

While most of the rat people were drinking from the lake, he stretched out his finger and quickly wiped the mud, sending it under his nose to sniff carefully.

Then, as if he had found something, his eyes emitted a sharp light, scanning the surroundings, especially the mandala forest.

“What did you discover?”

Ice Storm asked.

“Do you know where these two roads lead to?”Meng Chao pointed to the left and right sides of the lake.

On the right side was a straight and flat road paved with rocks.

On the lush grassland on the left side, there was originally no road, but now that it had been trampled by hundreds of thousands of fugitives, it had formed dozens of crisscrossed, intertwined, and messy paths.

“On the left is the sky-sinking grassland.
It’s hundreds of miles to the north.
After a few more mountains, we’ll arrive at the sky-sinking rift valley.
That’s the lowest and most complicated place in the entire Lan Ze.
It’s as dangerous as the Eternal Night Abyss in the north, and it’s also the dividing line between the territory of the Blood Hoof clan and the Gold clan.
It’s not surprising that the main force of the Great Horn Army is stationed in the sky-sinking Rift Valley.”

Although ice storm had stayed in black-corner city for two years, she had always been thinking about her father who was in Crimson Gold City.
Naturally, she had asked many merchants about the journey from black-corner city to Crimson Gold City and the terrain along the way.

She knew it like it was her family’s treasure, “As for the right side, it’s the war drum forest.
It’s said that it’s blessed by the sacred ancestral spirit.
The mandala trees here bear huge and full fruits.
Every time they mature and gather, they can’t be picked at all.
They can only let them fall to the ground with ‘Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang’.
It’s like a war drum that keeps on beating.
It’s considered one of the important food producing areas of the Blood Hoof clan.

“In order to transport a large number of mandala fruits, so many wide and flat roads have been opened in the forest.
Moreover, a town of 100,000 people has been built in the depths of the forest — war drum city.
There are several wealthy clans with thousands of years of history living in the city, and a large number of elite warriors are stationed there.
Their duty is to protect the granary, to prevent the Gold clan from having any brainless people come to the war drum forest to take advantage of them.”

Meng Chao was deep in thought.
“In other words, if the fugitives choose to leave through the Forest of war drums, they will easily fall into a desperate situation where there are pursuers behind them and obstacles in front of them?”

“Of course.”

Ice storm said, “Any fugitives who come here will look at the hollow prairie.
If they choose to leave through the Forest of war drums, they will definitely die!”

“That’s interesting.”

Meng Chao took a few steps to the right and squatted on the ground, carefully observing the traces left on the ground.

After a while, he picked up an insignificant thing from the mud with his thumb and Pinky Finger.

“This is…”ice storm raised his eyebrows slightly.

“A hair,”Meng Chao said.

“A hair?”Ice Storm didn’t understand what he meant.

In the past day and night, at least a hundred thousand or even more fugitives had passed by this place.

What kind of problem was it when a few strands of hair fell off one after another?

“This is not an ordinary hair.”

Meng Chao said unhurriedly, “Judging from its luster, elasticity, and toughness, this is a strand of hair that fell off from an elite warrior who was full of vitality, strong spiritual energy, and surging totem power in his body.

“The hair is the head of the spiritual energy.
For people who have been malnourished for a long time, the hair will certainly wither and split apart.

“The hair has fallen for at least half a night, but it is still oily and lustrous.
It is not hard to imagine that its owner must be very powerful
