Back in the village's gathering place, the people of Baijia Village continued to add firewood to the fire, creating a wall of fire that separated the two sides.

"We don't need to add more fire anymore, all the wolves have been eliminated," Captain Liu shouted to the other side.

Seeing that they couldn't get in anytime soon, and the people inside couldn't get out either, Captain Liu and the others gathered in front of the pile of wolf carcasses. Seeing that these wolves had all been killed with a single blow, they gained a deeper understanding of Sicheng's fighting capabilities.

"Captain Liu, I wonder if this master takes on apprentices. Judging from the way he strikes with deadly precision, he must be someone important."

When Captain Liu heard his comrade say this, he wholeheartedly agreed. Thinking back to how efficiently the people from Pinghe Village had dealt with the two large wild boars, and considering the amount of traditional Chinese medicine that Pinghe Village had brought this time, as well as the highly skilled doctor, he suddenly felt that Pinghe Village had become mysterious. It seemed that he could no longer underestimate anyone.

"We still need to maintain good relations with Pinghe Village in the future. If we can apply to move into Pinghe Village this time, that would be even better." Some team members have already started to make their own plans. The personnel moving into Pinghe Village have not yet been finalized. There are rumors that these positions are reserved for veterans who are about to retire from the military, but it is not impossible to get them.

After counting the number of wolves, and adding the few at the village entrance, these forty-odd wolves made up more than half of the group, which was more than the number they had killed.

Captain Liu and his men were stunned by this number. It turned out that the guns they had were not as good as the Guan Dao in Si Cheng's hands.

No more firewood was added to the fire, and the fire quickly died down. Yun Jianying and the others found two long sticks to prop the fire open, and then led the people of Pinghe Village out.

"Brother, how are you? Are you hurt?" As soon as they saw Si Cheng, everyone surrounded him. Seeing the bloodstains all over him, they all became a little nervous.

Although separated by the fire, one could hear the howling of wolves and the sounds of Sicheng fighting against them.

"I'm not injured, this is all wolf blood." Si Cheng quickly explained as he saw Yun Jianying and the others about to strip him of his clothes.

"Brother, you can't go alone next time. You have no idea how tough it was for us in there. We were so worried." Ever since Si Cheng walked out of the fire wall alone, Yun Tao and the others had been worried about him. That feeling was the hardest to bear. If it weren't for protecting the wounded in the village, they would have come out with him long ago.

"Since it was my first time facing a wolf pack, I wasn't very confident. But after this experience, I'll be taking you all along so you can practice too." Si Cheng now had a better understanding of his own abilities, and he felt more confident even when leading the villagers to fight these wild beasts in the future.

"That's settled then." Yun Tao and the others' attention was also drawn to the pile of wolf carcasses in the corner.

"Brother, you eliminated all of them, right?" Yun Jianying asked with certainty, because he vaguely heard that Captain Liu and the others arrived later.

"That's not all. There were also a few wolves in the village that were killed by Brother Cheng," one of Captain Liu's comrades interjected.

"Wow, my brother is amazing!" Yun Jianying and the others all ran up to count the number of wolves.

"No need to count anymore, there are more than forty including the ones at the village entrance." Seeing them counting, someone quickly reported the number.

“Telling us won’t help. We still have to count them ourselves. These were all killed by our brother, one by one.” Yun Tao checked the wounds after each count.

The people of Baijia Village felt a mix of emotions upon seeing the wolf carcasses scattered on the ground. Yesterday, they had been helpless against the wolves, while Sicheng had easily dealt with so many wolves single-handedly. Many couldn't help but wonder why their own villages didn't have someone like him to guard them.

By the time everyone calmed down, it was already daylight, and those who had been staying in the settlement came out.

The villagers who had lost loved ones knelt there and wept bitterly as they looked at the wolf carcasses; some even rushed up and kicked the wolves hard.

Now that the wolves have been eliminated and the wounds have been treated, Si Cheng and his group packed their things and said goodbye to the village chief of Baijia Village.

As for changing the dressings, that can be left to the village doctor in Baijia Village. This village doctor only graduated from a nursing school, but he is more than capable of changing the dressings for these wounds.

Village Chief Bai and the others expressed their gratitude again and again. Although they wanted to keep them in the village for a longer period of time, they knew that was simply impossible.

Before leaving, Village Chief Bai and the others asked Si Cheng to take the carcasses of the wolves they had killed with them. It wasn't that they didn't want to leave them behind; although these wolves were hideous, their fur and meat were quite good.

Although it was heartbreaking, Village Chief Bai and the others knew that these were not the places they should stay.

When they arrived, everyone carried Chinese medicine on their backs. But when they returned, each person carried a wolf on their shoulder, because Si Cheng had said that the wolf carcass would be the reward for this trip. So, everyone gritted their teeth and carried their share on their shoulders, leaving the rest that they couldn't take back to Baijia Village to deal with.

Yunnan Medicine and Dr. Xia only need to take care of their own medical kits, and their payment is naturally carried on Si Cheng's shoulders.

Besides the two wolves that Dr. Xia and his companions carried, Si Cheng also had several wolves tied to his back. The combined weight of three to four hundred pounds didn't feel strenuous to him compared to the others.

Captain Liu and his men were in the same boat, each carrying a wolf. It wasn't that they didn't want to take them all, but they couldn't carry that many at once. However, this time they didn't generously offer to leave the wolves to Baijia Village; instead, they planned to go back and bring more men to take the wolves back.

"Brother, you still have to take us out in the future." Yun Lecang gritted his teeth and caught up with Si Cheng, who was walking ahead.

"With your small frame, you should really train more. It won't be so easy for you to go out in the future." Si Cheng didn't even need to turn around to know who had caught up with him. This kid had been hanging around him quite a bit lately.

"Brother, don't worry, I will practice every day after we get back, and I definitely won't hold everyone back," Yun Lecang quickly assured him.

“It’s not enough to just train them all; they also need to pass an assessment.” The assessment was an idea Si Cheng had just come up with. Since he was determined to train these people in the village, he had to be responsible for them and train them even more rigorously.

"Ah, there's still an assessment." Yun Lecang's heart sank instantly. He knew that all the uncles and brothers in the village were more capable than him, no, and the older sisters might even be able to defeat him in an instant.

"I'm telling you, kid, you should obediently learn some skills from Uncle Sanman. That way, you can still contribute to the village." Yun Jianying laughed when he saw the look of utter despair on the boy's face.

"I can't do those delicate tasks; they take too much patience and are simply not for me. Besides, his skills aren't that great. If I learned his skills, I might not even be able to make a living." Thinking about how his father would spend every spare moment studying the instruction manual for the crossbow, taking it apart and putting it back together again and again, and still hadn't figured it out after all this time, it seemed unlikely.
