Cannon fodder Gong Just Wants To Take The Imperial Examination [MTL]

Chapter 12

Shen Chenyu's black eyes were frighteningly cold when he heard that, this guy can say such casual words, it can be seen that the other party didn't take him seriously at all. It seemed that his few arrows just now didn't kill them, so this guy regarded him as a paper tiger.

Shen Chenyu didn't mean to talk nonsense with him at all, raised her hand and shot an arrow at the head of the bandit who was talking. Although the bandit leader is not very smart, Shen Chenyu has to admit that he is good at skills, because Shen Chenyu, who has always hit every shot, missed the arrow.

The other party obviously didn't expect that Shen Chenyu was a person who didn't talk too much. So when Shen Chenyu shot an arrow without saying a word, he was not only taken aback by Shen Chenyu, but also almost shot by the arrow.

Seeing this, Shen Chenyu's eyes darkened, and she raised her hand and shot an arrow straight at the opponent's door, as if she wanted to shoot the arrow through the opponent's head. The arrow was faster and more ruthless than before. Although the bandit leader narrowly escaped the critical point, he was shot through one ear.

The main reason why Shen Chenyu's attitude changed so much was because the bandit leader's words gave him a feeling that human life was not worth mentioning.

In the eyes of the bandit leader, neither these villagers nor his brothers are as important as unnecessary gold, silver and jewelry. This kind of person doesn't know how many lives are in his hands, so Shen Chenyu doesn't have much psychological pressure to deal with this kind of person, and even for a moment he feels that he is killing harm for the people.

The severe pain distorted the face of the bandit leader, and he suddenly threw the big knife in his hand towards Shen Chenyu. Shen Chenyu subconsciously wanted to dodge to the side, but before he could move, a tall and straight figure appeared in front of him.

Shen Chenyu didn't see Mu Linting's movements clearly, but saw that he raised his uninjured leg, easily caught the big knife with his foot, then turned the big knife in a circle and inserted it into the snow inside.

Mu Linting's speed and light figure made Shen Chenyu inexplicably think of the two idioms "light as a swallow" and "Taxue Wuhen", and was stunned for some reason.

"Stand back, I'll come."

Following Mu Linting's voice, Shen Chenyu subconsciously took a step back. Then I saw Mu Linting pull out the knife and throw it out with a swish, the bandit leader who was still in a rage fell down.

At some point, Mu Linting had handed over the child to Yang Jiashuan. Yang Jiashuan himself was still a half-grown boy, he was dumbfounded when he hugged the limp baby boy. He froze on the spot with a stiff face, as if he had been acupunctured.

Shen Chenyu didn't have many arrows, only twelve in total. Every time he used a bow and arrow before, he would take back the arrow he shot.

Because his bows and arrows are different from ancient ones, each arrow is made of special material, not only very hard but also sharp.

He lost one arrow when he shot the wolf before, but now Shen Chenyu has wasted four arrows, leaving only seven arrows in his hand.

The moment the bandit leader fell, the other bandits wanted to escape when they saw this. Adhering to the principle of cutting the grass but not eradicating the roots, Shen Chenyu didn't show mercy this time, and shot one of the bandits in the back with one arrow, followed by two more arrows, leaving the other two behind.

It is impossible to say that you are not afraid. After Shen Chenyu assisted Mu Linting in catching the injured bandit, he realized that his hands were trembling non-stop. Only then did he realize that he was still afraid in his heart.

They did not kill the remaining bandits, but tied them up one by one with ropes, and then planned to take them to the village below the mountain to have a look.

Because Aunt Yang still needed someone to take care of her, Shen Chenyu didn't let Yang Jiashuan go with them, but went down the mountain with the child and Mu Linting.

This was Shen Chenyu's first time going down the mountain to a small village at the foot of the mountain since she traveled through time. He used to stand halfway up the mountain and look down, and he had a general idea of ​​how big the village was, but he never had the chance to come over in person.

Their village is not big, there are only about 30 households, and the population should not exceed 150 people.

During the previous snow disaster, a dozen old, weak, sick and disabled died, but now many young and middle-aged people have died in this disturbance. It is estimated that there should be less than a hundred people left in the whole village.

At this time, the whole village was in a mess, and many houses were burned by bandits. If it weren't for the snow everywhere now, it is estimated that the entire village would have been burned down by the fire.

When the two of them dragged the injured bandits over, they found that many people were crying and shouting. It seems that the bandits who escaped before have already run away, otherwise these timid villagers would not dare to cry like this.

Although Shen Chenyu was angry with the family who betrayed them, after seeing the tragic situation of the whole village, she still couldn't help feeling sad and intolerable. After all, not all the villagers betrayed them, and many of them were as kind as Aunt Yang's family.

Probably because they heard the movement outside, a five or six-year-old child suddenly appeared in the yard of a family nearest to the entrance of the village. The child was dark and small, and looked more dark in the bright snowy night.

The child looked at them in horror. After seeing their faces and the bandits tied behind them clearly, the child couldn't help but opened his mouth and howled.

The child's cries sounded particularly harsh, and his cries were mixed with the cries of other people in the village, filling the whole village with a sense of sadness and despair.

Shen Chenyu didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only look up at the sky sadly. Shen Chenyu didn't take the blame on himself, he had already reminded them at the risk of being discovered, but these people thought he was an outsider and didn't listen to him at all.

Soon Shen Chenyu found the village head's house. The people in the village head's house were quite clever, and they resolutely hid when the bandits attacked the village. So only one man in the village head's family was injured, and the rest of them were in much better condition than other families except that they were severely frightened by bandits.

The village chief was a little surprised when he saw Shen Chenyu. He heard from other people in the village that all the bandits suddenly disappeared because they went to find Shen Chenyu's family.

He thought that Shen Chenyu's family was about to suffer, and was telling them to pack up their things and plan to escape, but then he bumped into Shen Chenyu head-on.

It's not that the village chief didn't want to save him, but that they really couldn't. When bandits killed people in the village before, there were a few young people who wanted to save them, but they were all killed by bandits in the end. The remaining people are old and young. If they really have the ability to save people, they would have already rescued the people in their village.

Shen Chenyu told the village head what happened on the mountain. When the village head heard that they had killed the bandit leader and tied up the other bandits, the village head's face suddenly showed ecstasy.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, what a hero..." The village chief couldn't help but praise the two of them as he went to check on the other people in the village. If he had known that these two were so powerful, he would have asked them to live in the village at the beginning, so that so many people would not have died in their village.

Because the mountain next to it is called Qishan, so their village is called Qishan Village. There are two and a half villages near Qishan Village, which, like Qishan Village, belong to Yuxi Town under Qingcheng County.

Qishan Village suffered a catastrophe this time, and the two surrounding villages were not spared either. However, the difference from Qishan Village is that these two villages have a relatively large population, and there are more young and middle-aged people than Qishan Village, so the damage to their villages is not as serious as that of Qishan Village.

Shen Chenyu followed the village chief around the village, and then found that seventeen people died in the village at once, and most of the seventeen people were young and middle-aged. This can be regarded as a fatal blow to the small Qishan Village.

Shen Chenyu couldn't be of much help in the future. After handing over the injured bandits to the village chief, he took Mu Linting and the child home first.

This time the incident is so big, after Lutong, the government will definitely send someone over. As for how to deal with these bandits, and how to arrange things behind Qishan Village, Shen Chenyu felt that he, an outsider, should not interfere.

Although Shen Chenyu didn't want to meddle in the affairs of Qishan Village, the village head brought the villagers to the door the next afternoon.

Shen Chenyu didn't take much rest last night, and she was still a little groggy at this moment. He was still lying on the bed when someone woke him up, and he was in a daze.

When he finally got up from the bed, he opened the door and found that the small courtyard of their house was extremely lively at this moment.

As soon as everyone saw Shen Chenyu coming out of the room, they all immediately surrounded him and started talking, but he couldn't understand what they were talking about after listening for a long time. In the end, the son of the village chief came forward to explain, and Shen Chenyu understood why they came here this time.

Because Shen Chenyu and Mu Linting killed the bandit leader and helped the villagers arrest the rest of the bandits, the people in the village were very grateful for their kindness. They came here this time, in addition to being grateful to Shen Chenyu and the other two, they also had another reason to want them to move down the mountain.

When it came to this point, even the thick-skinned village chief felt embarrassed, and Shen Chenyu couldn't express it in his heart.

In fact, the people in Qishan Village are quite xenophobic, and it is precisely because they are quite xenophobic that the original owner chose to build a house on the mountainside.

Although the original owner wasn't very smart, he wasn't really a fool either. Although the scenery on the mountainside is good, the mountain is very dangerous. If he hadn't been forced to, he wouldn't want to live in the dangerous mountains.

Now that something like this has happened in the village, it is safer in the mountains than in the village. After all, if it wasn't for that family's informant, those bandits probably wouldn't even know that there were people living in the mountain.

But in this case, the people in the village invited them to move down the mountain, and the hidden meaning is that even fools understand it.

Shen Chenyu doesn't like their behavior, and the expression on her face doesn't look very good-looking. Seemingly aware of Shen Chenyu's thoughts, the village chief's son couldn't help but speak again.

"We know that you have resentment in your heart, but it was Yang Dani's family who betrayed you. You can't blame us for it. If you think there is no way to calm down, we can bring Yang Dani's family over and ask them to kowtow to you Apologize..."

Shen Chenyu felt a headache when he heard it, he couldn't help waving his hand to interrupt the other party's words, and then said to everyone with a tired face: "I'll talk about this later, I didn't rest all night last night, wait for me to rest Let's discuss it again."
