"What? Dozens of people are coming this way?"

Hu Handong's expression was solemn as he confirmed with the spy again.

"Absolutely true! These people are all wearing dark green clothes, and they're holding weapons that seem to be... weapons like the ones hanging next to your chair..."

"Isn't that right?"

"I guarantee it with my head! I won't be wrong!"

Hu Handong felt like a huge stone was pressing on his heart. The worst-case scenario he worried about finally happened.

There were dozens of people on the other side, almost everyone had a precious sword like this...

What kind of power is capable of doing this?!

Hu Handong thought of an anecdote that his father had mentioned casually.

This Ningqing Mountain was the residence of immortals tens of millions of years ago.

Could it be that these people are the subordinates of immortals?

No, that's not right. If the immortals thought mortals like them were an eyesore, why didn't they come and drive them away when their ancestors were bandits here? Besides, how could this barren mountain possibly be the home of an immortal?

Or is it that some force has set its eyes on this place and wants to take root here?

"Mr. Cao..."

"Don't be anxious, boss. It's not too late to talk about it after we meet!" Cao Dakai looked calm and not in a hurry.

"Okay, let's explore again!"

"Boss, this is bad! Twenty or so people in green have reached the outer sentry posts!"

Before Hu Handong finished speaking, a spy ran in with a panicked look on his face and almost fell down.

"Damn it!"

Hu Handong stood up suddenly.

You got here so quickly?

Cao Dakai also frowned, as if thinking about his next strategy.

Are you going to run away now?

To be honest, Hu Handong was very reluctant to give up the village's foundation after becoming the head of the village. Here, there was a group of people who respected you. Although you couldn't have enough food and clothing, you could still get by.

In this chaotic world, there are too many things that can endanger the lives of mortals.

Rather than toiling away all your life and then dying unexpectedly one day.

It would be easier and more comfortable to become a bandit and a mountain king.

If one day the person dies, at least he or she has enjoyed it.

Not a loss!

Hu Handong thought he had become indifferent to life and death.

Unfortunately, the longer you enjoy a high position, the more afraid you become of death.

Even though he is the strongest in Qingshan Village.

"Master, please be patient. Qingshan Village is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as we are well prepared and hold the dangerous pass, unless they have wings, these twenty or so people will not be enough to defeat them even at the cost of their lives!" Cao Dakai suggested calmly.

"Boss, something bad has happened! There are dozens of people wearing dark green clothes coming from the southwest, northwest, west and south! They seem to be well prepared!" Another spy came running over with a serious expression.

There are still dozens of people! ?

Hu Handong couldn't stay any longer.

In the entire Qingshan Village, he is the only second-rate master. His second-in-command Qiao Shanhu and third-in-command Li Weiyu are only third-rate masters. The rest, except for a few low-level masters, are all ordinary warriors.

How to defeat dozens of well-equipped and uniformed enemies?

"Be on guard first!" Hu Handong raised his steel knife and prepared to fight.

The spies went out one after another, but Cao Dakai quietly stopped Hu Handong.

"Boss, can you listen to what I have to say?"

"Sir, please speak."

Cao Dakai whispered, "Boss, there's a saying that goes, 'A real man can bend and stretch as he pleases.'"

Although the words were brief, Cao Dakai believed that Hu Handong had understood what he meant.

"Sir, are you saying...?"

Cao Dakai nodded silently.

Hu Handong hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I know. Let's go take a look first!"

Of course he had to take a look, otherwise if he ran away based on the spy's message, if something went wrong, he would not be able to continue to be the king of the mountain.

When the two of them went out, they happened to run into the smiling Second in Command, Qiao Shanhu. Hu Handong scolded him, "Second Brother, what are you still smiling for? Didn't you hear the spy's report?"

"Don't worry, big brother." Qiao Shanhu said confidently, "I just came back from the western hilltop."

"Did you see those people?"

"What a mob! It's a complete mob!" Qiao Shanhu said confidently, "Looking around, there's a huge crowd of people, and not a single one of them can stand up to me!"

"How do you say that?"

"They're frail, their steps unsteady, and all built like women. They're like they're on a spring outing, completely devoid of vigilance! I can beat at least ten of them at once!"

"really?"

"It's absolutely true. How could I lie to you? You'll know when you see it, big brother!"

Qiao Shanhu and Hu Handong climbed up to the high watchtower.

It’s called a watchtower, but it’s just a platform made of a few pieces of wood, and it’s difficult for two people to stand on it.

At the foot of the mountain, you can already see the towering dark green color - that is the color of the outer disciple uniforms worn by the players.

Qingshan Village was built in a U-shaped valley, with two sides of it being steep and inaccessible to vehicles and horses, and only one side was accessible. However, this side also commanded the view from a high ground.

On the other side of the U-shaped opening, the terrain is undulating, and successive bandit leaders have built three checkpoints there and sent people to guard them, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Cao Dakai, worthy of being the military advisor of Qingshan Village, figured out the situation in just a few minutes. He immediately suggested to Hu Handong, "If that's the case, then the boss can just follow the usual arrangements!"

"Give the order!"

Cao Dakai nodded and called the nearby messengers to assign tasks.

"If they want to attack, we can only attack from the front. Second brother, follow me! Let's go meet them!"
