The servant stared blankly, not daring to make a decision. He subconsciously looked at his master—Li Yulu and a group of young ladies were hiding as far away as possible, their expressions terrified as they huddled together like a flock of frightened quails.
That's terrifying.
Is she still a woman?
The guardhouse is actually easy to find; it's always in the southeast corner, right next to the main gate.
Chu Jinjin led the servants and servants in front, followed by a group of young ladies and maids.
As for why they followed, they didn't know either.
The difference between a guard and a servant is that the latter serves others, while the former patrols and keeps watch, responsible for maintaining order. They not only need to be strong and healthy, but also need to know some martial arts.
The head of the Li family is the city gatekeeper, and being close to the source of the power, he has the advantage of being able to take advantage of the situation. Unlike the Chu Jinjin family or the Xu family, whose guards are all elite soldiers.
They were a little confused when they saw a large group of women walking towards them.
The head of the guards was in his thirties, strong and capable. He was no ordinary man to be the head of the guards at the city gate. If you looked closely during the day, you could see eight thick knuckles on his hands, all hard-earned from punches.
The head of the guards glanced at the bruised and battered servant without saying a word, then bowed to Li Yulu and said, "Greetings, Miss."
Li Yulu instantly felt safe and almost cried out in grievance: "Uncle Li."
The head of the guards nodded: "Young Miss, don't be afraid, what happened?"
The guard rarely concerned himself with family matters; he knew there would be a flower-viewing banquet tonight, but nothing else.
Li Yulu pointed at Chu Jinjin: "She wants to beat you up."
The head of the guards: "..."
The young lady was so anxious that she misspoke.
He certainly saw the servants being beaten, but apart from him, they were all women.
The head of the guards suddenly thought of another possibility: perhaps it was some arrogant young lady from a wealthy family. He clasped his hands in a fist and asked, "May I ask why you hit me, young lady?"
"It's not you, it's all of you." Chu Jinjin first corrected seriously, then patiently explained, "Your master wanted to frame my sister, I couldn't hit her, so I had to take it out on you."
The head of the guards: "..."
I understand.
Just as he thought.
The head of the guards gritted his teeth: "I'm tough, but I'm afraid I might hurt Miss's hand."
Chu Jinjin sighed: "My surname is Chu, Chu Jinjin."
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
The head of the guards slowly lowered his hand, his expression growing increasingly serious: "Could it be the third young lady of the Chu family who single-handedly stormed Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold?"
One man taking on a group of guards is nothing special; he could do that too. But as someone who is half a soldier, he knows how formidable Black Hawk Stronghold is.
Chu Jinjin glanced at the rising moonlight and said impatiently, "Yes, let's all go together."
Finish early so I can go home and sleep.
Li Yulu knew how formidable Uncle Li was; even her father treated him with great respect. Clenching her fists, she angrily said, "Uncle Li, don't be too ruthless. Just kick her out."
No matter how capable Chu Jinjin is, she can never be a match for Uncle Li.
The head of the guards shook his head with a wry smile: "Miss Chu, then I'd like to ask for your guidance."
He no longer harbored any contempt and threw a heavy punch with all his might.
Chu Jinjin's eyes lit up. Not bad, the Li family has such a person.
If we were to categorize them, then apart from the Black Hawk Chieftain, he is the most formidable person she has ever encountered.
But this "powerful" is relative.
Chu Jinjin's attack method is very simple. She doesn't have any special moves; she's fast and does whatever it takes to kill someone quickly.
The two exchanged blows, with Chu Jinjin constantly dodging and seemingly at a complete disadvantage. However, the head of the guards felt increasingly disheartened, as each of his punches felt like hitting cotton.
They're not even in the same league.
After Chu Jinjin finished testing him, she found that his fist was just a little too hard, so she lost interest. When another punch came, she didn't back down. Instead, she grabbed his wrist with lightning speed and twisted it hard!
The head of the guards let out a muffled groan.
He could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking.
Just as he was about to back away, his knee felt like it had been hit hard by a hammer, and he could no longer control himself, kneeling straight on the ground.
This is when you can see the difference between soldiers and ordinary guards.
The remaining dozen or so people were shocked but not flustered. One of them, probably the squad leader, shouted in a low voice, "Get your weapons and form a battle formation."
A simple formation was formed instantly, with the front row holding long spears and swords on either side.
Chu Lanlan became worried: "Third sister, let's go."
Those are weapons, both knives and spears.
Chu Jinjin was unarmed and would be injured if she directly confronted him.
Chu Jinjin wasn't stupid. She took a few steps back, picked up a stone, and threw it.
There are so many stones in the yard.
She hadn't originally planned to use weapons.
The guards: "..."
Chu Jinjin's skill in throwing hidden weapons was unparalleled. In the apocalypse, women are often at a disadvantage due to their lack of strength, and they are also vulnerable when facing mutated zombies head-on. Anyway, she somehow developed a perfect aim.
It's hard to say if they encounter sword and shield soldiers, but with just these few people, they're practically sitting ducks.
With a whooshing sound, the stones were so fast that they were impossible to see. In the blink of an eye, not only was the formation destroyed, but there were hardly any left standing.
The expressions of the group of noble ladies were dreamlike and blank.
This was beyond what they could accept.
However, it did not end there.
Without her weapon, Chu Jinjin jumped directly into the crowd. One muffled scream after another echoed as the standing guards fell, and those who got up were kicked away.
It looks like an adult beating up a group of children.
Chu Jinjin was excited but not satisfied with her actions. She didn't want to kill anyone; she just wanted the Li family to remember what happened tonight.
Just then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed someone approaching. It was too dark to see their face clearly, but I could tell they were a man.
If he's a man, he should be beaten.
Chu Jinjin, like a nimble wild leopard, leaped high into the air, used the nearest boulder for leverage, and kicked the person who came at her.
That kick missed completely.
Chu Jinjin's eyes lit up; a master had arrived.
Finally, someone who can fight.
Before she even landed, she turned around and kicked again, instinctively aiming for a vital spot because she knew the other person would most likely dodge.
A man's greatest weakness.
As expected, the man narrowly avoided the danger.
Chu Jinjin's interest grew even stronger; this was exactly the effect she wanted. She was too experienced; although her opponent seemed to have dodged, he was now full of openings and had no chance to react again.
Chu Jinjin let out a low growl, and her small, fair fist moved with lightning speed, striking the man squarely in the abdomen.
The man groaned, and at the same time, Li Yulu cried out in terror, "Father!"
Chu Jinjin: "?"
Only then did she have the mind to observe the newcomer.
He was in his forties, with a dignified appearance and a peculiar air of menace about him.
The air felt like it had been sucked out.
Chu Jinjin didn't recognize him, but the young ladies did, and for a moment they didn't know what to be shocked about.
Was it that the dignified city gate commander couldn't beat Chu Jinjin, or that Chu Jinjin beat the city gate commander?
"This humble woman, Chu Jinjin, greets Lord Li." Chu Jinjin took a few steps back and asked with genuine concern, "Are you alright?"
The city gate commander's face was as black as night, his eyes wide with anger. He didn't say a word, and after a moment, he vomited.
