Leaving the city, Chen Jie didn't head directly to Centipede Mountain but instead turned toward Mianshui County.
Huangzhou Prefecture was under siege, and Chen Jie disguised himself as a refugee, blending into the crowd heading toward Mianshui County. Along the way, they passed by Centipede Mountain, where he saw Zhou Chu, also disguised as a refugee, personally leading thirty thousand Mianshui citizens, pretending to support Huangzhou Prefecture.
Recently, the main battlefield had been Huangzhou Prefecture, making Mianshui County safer, allowing Zhou Chu and the others to leave the city.
Upon seeing Chen Jie, Zhou Chu said, "Gang Leader, I've brought the people, what should I do next?"
Chen Jie said, "You follow the mountain path towards the rear mountain of Centipede Mountain. I should be able to join you around noon. By then, you can follow me."
Hearing this, Zhou Chu nodded immediately, "Alright, I'll lead the people to the rear mountain."
