"There's no road ahead!!

Because the road at the edge of the forest was so narrow, the team almost didn't want to see it. In such a narrow strip of land, it is almost impossible for the ox cart to turn its head.

At the same time, the transmission of information was delayed a lot.

"What?"

Hearing someone shouting, the young man who was the captain of the team looked very nervous when he heard the shouting from the front.

This is his first mission as a captain, and if this mission smashes his hands, then ......

The consequences are unimaginable.

"Drive!"

The young captain kicked the horse in the belly while shaking the reins hard. Galloping along the side of the road, the startled man on the ox cart hurriedly dodged to the other side. At the same time, you should also reassure yourself that you will plough the cattle so that you will not run around in fright.

Because they are all temporary requisition, these people only value their own cattle more. They didn't understand why these soldiers were so nervous, for it was common for them to get lost in this forest.

Several people who were close to each other gathered together to discuss ...... after the soldier rode his horse and galloped.

"Smack!!

A guard held a long whip in his hand and waved it twice on the top of the people's head. Then the hand shook and there was a crisp sound.

"Don't talk to each other, go back to your place. ”

After the captain went, he did not return for a long time.

"Hey, Lao Sen, something is wrong!"

As he spoke, the young man who had changed to Negan quietly put his hand on his sword.

Dawson opened his drunken eyes and glanced at the towering trees around him, "Hmph!

"What do you mean?"

"How many times have you and I traveled back and forth on our way to Camp Hobbes, and when have you ever seen a tree like this?"

"What do you mean...... You found out a long time ago?"

"Humph!" Dawson snorted nonchalantly again, then groped and searched for the wine bag again. Just as Dawson raised his head and was about to pour another sip of old adult wine,

"Huh?"

In the distance, on the treetops, a reflection appeared. Although it was fleeting, it was still captured by him.

"Is it still here?" muttered Alone.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing?"

The soju that had been brought to his mouth, but Dawson didn't drink it. Twist the wine stopper vigorously, and then put it away slowly like a baby.

"Boy, how long have you been with me?"

"Huh?"

At first, Dawson laughed at the timid teenager, and looked at the old man in front of him a little confused. He couldn't understand why Dawson would suddenly ask himself that.

"I ask you, how long have you been with me?"

"It's been more than nine years. ”

"Nine years, almost ten years!" "I remember when I first saw you, you were so tall!" Dawson said, gesturing in the air.

"Hey, Lao Sen, now is not the time to sigh about this kind of thing, you ......"

Even Negan, who had been with Dawson for many years, was a little curious, wondering how his partner had become so sentimental so suddenly. It's just that Negan was about to say something, but was interrupted by Dawson.

"Listen, if there is a fight later. Whatever happens after that, you two just run north. "Remember, absolutely, never go back. ”

When Dawson uttered two absolutes in a row, Negan also understood the seriousness of the matter.

"I see!" "But can you tell me what's going on?"

"I can't say. After hearing Negan's reply, Dawson pulled a letter out of his bosom, "Take this and find someone named Awen in the Northern District." ”

After saying this, Dawson changed his previous sleepy eyes. took off the cavalry hanging from his mount, and there was a faint glint in his eyes.
