n“Were you the one who killed my brother?”
nThe man on the red horse glared at Su Qing. He had a large scar from his brow bone to his jaw, and he had a full beard. His eyes looked like he was going to eat someone.
nSu Qing nodded expressionlessly. She saw that Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi were ready, so she turned to Qiu Yongkang and said, “You pass them the stones, I’ll guard this area.”
nQiu Yongkang furrowed his brows. It was too uncomfortable for a man to be ordered around by a woman, and he was even more suspicious of whether she could handle it on her own.
nSu Qing frowned when she saw him not moving. She asked sternly, “You want them all to die?”
nQiu Yongkang let out a sigh. This woman…
nIn the end, he still listened to Su Qing’s words and moved the stones to the boulder.
nWhen the bandit leader saw that Su Qing was not afraid of him and was even arranging her men to fight against them in an orderly manner, he grew alarmed. He originally wanted to keep Su Qing to warm his bed because of her beauty. However, he gave up on that idea now. This woman could not be kept alive; she had to be killed!
n“Brothers, kill them all. Don’t leave a single one alive. When you snatch the items and return to the mountain with the girls, the boss will reward you handsomely.”
nSu Qing held the trident in her hand and retreated to the mouth of the boulder. She had only attracted their attention just now so that old seventh and Daniu could climb up the boulder smoothly. They were like a single line of sky guarding the mouth of the boulder, one man holding off ten thousand men.
nShe was confident that she could kill her opponent in a one-on-one fight. Otherwise, with her current level 6 God of War abilities, she would definitely not be able to defeat 20 to 30 of them if they swarmed her. She would never do things that she was not confident in.
nSeeing Su Qing retreat, the bandit leader was furious. This woman was too cunning, and he regretted not catching her earlier. He raised his shining machete and shouted to boost morale.
n“Catch this woman and cut her into eight pieces to avenge our brothers.”
nSu Qing was already prepared to go on a killing spree when she saw rocks falling from the mountain towards the group of bandits. The one who was standing on the mountain and throwing the rocks was Ji Shui Sheng.
nWith a sullen face, he picked up the big stones one by one and threw them at the group of bandits with a steady, accurate, and ruthless force.
nJust now, he had climbed up the mountain to finish off the remaining bandits who had thrown the boulders. He was covered in blood and looked like a god of death as he stood on the mountaintop. The boulders he threw down hit the bandits until they covered their heads and ran away, their screams echoing in the valley.
nSeeing that Ji Shui Sheng was still alive, Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi also perked up. The two of them stood on the huge rock, aimed down, and threw the rock at people.
nOriginally, the bandits were prepared to smash Ji Shui Sheng and the others to death on this mountain path. They did not expect that the plan they prepared would be used by Ji Shui Sheng and the others. They could not avoid the rocks that fell from the sky, and as the huge rocks in front blocked the path, they could only escape from the original path.
nSu Qing raised her head and looked at Ji Shui Sheng, who was standing on the mountain. His tall figure stood on the mountain rock in an awe-inspiring manner. Although he was not wearing any armor, his aura was no less than that of a general on the battlefield.
nSu Qing’s eyes were filled with admiration.
nNot bad…
nNo wonder the people of Peach Blossom Cove trusted him so much. He had brains, courage, and martial arts.
n“Shui Sheng, I thought you were dead.”
nWhen Li Daniu saw Ji Shui Sheng coming down the mountain, he burst into tears and pounced over to hug him, not letting go.
nJiang Laoqi also ran over and hugged Ji Shui Sheng.
n“Shuisheng, I saw you being crushed under a huge rock. It’s great that you’re still alive. It’s great.”
n“Shui Sheng.”
nQiu Yongkang’s eyes had reddened as well. He patted Ji Shui Sheng’s shoulder and choked with sobs after calling his name.
nWhen they were separated by life and death, they thought that they would see their good brother’s corpse. In the end, not only did he not die, but he also saved the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove. The huge surprise of finding him again after losing him was tearful.
n“I have a tough life, I won’t die so easily.”
nJi Shui Sheng patted their backs and comforted his good brothers. After he finished speaking, his eyes were as dark as a sea of ink. Even the King of Hell could not take him away without avenging him.
nSu Qing didn’t look at him. Instead, she stepped over the bandits ‘corpses and grabbed the horse’s reins to pull the horse back.
nWhen Ji Shui Sheng saw this, a flash of approval appeared in his eyes. He pushed Li Daniu away and ordered, “Catch the horse.”
nThe bandits’ horses were more or less injured when they moved together. They didn’t know which way they ran off after being frightened.
nSu Qing had caught one horse, and the three of them had caught three. In total, they had captured four fat and strong horses.
nThere was also a horse that had been stabbed to death by Su Qing. The horse’s meat was to be eaten on the road, and the horse’s skin could be used to make shoes.
nIn addition, they found more than ten taels of silver on the dead bandits on the ground, and they also took machetes from these bandits.
nThe horses could help them transport goods, the knives could be used for self-defense, the silver could be used to buy food, the dead horses could be used to eat meat, and the horse skin could be used to make boots. All in all, they had profited, and there were no casualties.
nIt was equivalent to saying that these bandits had rushed up to give them horses, silver, and their own lives.
n“Hurry up and leave this place. Get out of Guo City’s territory as soon as possible.”
nLooking at the bandits’ corpses, which were scattered all over the ground, Ji Shui Sheng gave the order with a grave expression.
nWith a horse, everyone was much more relaxed. Ji Shui Sheng no longer pulled the cart, letting the horse pull it for him. The men also placed the heavy basket containing the bamboo tube on the horse’s back, greatly reducing their burden and preserving their physical strength to deal with the risks they would encounter in the future.
nThe news that Su Qing had killed two bandits spread among the villagers of Peachwood. Everyone looked at her with respect, and Aunt Qiu did not dare to assign her any more tasks.
nOnly Ji Xiao Ying was not afraid of Su Qing, and she also admired her.
n“Sister, you’re so powerful. I want to be as powerful as you and protect the young and old of our village.”
nSu Qing looked at her. This was a young lady who was not familiar with the world.
nShe calmly said to Ji Xiao Ying, “Killing isn’t a pleasant thing.”
nShe remembered the first time she killed someone, when she was five years old. She had stabbed her opponent’s chest with the knife in her hand, and blood had sprayed all over her face. Her vision was completely red, and she had nightmares for half a year.
nIf possible, she hoped that Xiao Ying would never experience such a nightmarish scenario in her life.
n“Shui Sheng, we’ve killed so many bandits. They won’t let this go.”
nOld Master Qiu told Ji Shui Sheng worriedly that the bandits had committed all kinds of evil, including killing and robbing. They were also very vengeful, otherwise they would not have chased them all the way here.
n“We can only deal with them as they come. I’m afraid it’s useless. They won’t dare to pursue us after we leave Guocheng.”
nJi Shui Sheng’s eyes were calm and deep. Bandits were also divided into territories. Once they were out of Guo Cheng, if they wanted to chase after them, they would have to go to other people’s territory.
nBandits had the strongest sense of territory. If they crossed the boundary, they would be seen as snatching the mountain, and ordinary bandits would not dare to do this.
n“That’s the only way. I’m just afraid that the old, the weak, the women, and the children can’t walk. Two legs can’t run faster than four legs.”
nOld Master Qiu was still very worried. After all, the other party was a group of vicious bandits.
n“Then we’ll kill them. We’ll kill one if one comes, and we’ll kill a pair if two come. We’re not unarmed now.”
nJi shuisheng held a dazzling long knife in his hand, and his eyes flickered with killing intent.
nAs they were in a hurry, they could not bury the pot to cook. Fortunately, Qiu Yingzi had steamed more cornbread in the morning. The men got one, and the women, the elderly, and the children got half. When it was Su Qing’s turn, Qiu Yingzi hesitated.
