Chapter 137: The Struggle of a Trapped Beast
"You bastard! Come on over here if you dare! If you can get here, I'll cut your head off and use it as a football!"
Fatty Wang, carrying a spiked club, arrogantly shouted across the river.
"They're just a bunch of insignificant bandits, yet they dare to be so arrogant!"
"Archers, fire!"
The soldiers on the opposite side were clearly prepared. With a wave of their hands, they unleashed a barrage of arrows that caught everyone on the shore off guard.
Yuan Siyin deftly dodged the two arrows, and clicked her tongue slightly as she watched the force with which they embedded themselves in the tree trunk.
As soon as the rain of arrows stopped, Fatty Wang peeked out from behind the tree, brushed a leaf from his head, and spat, "Damn it, they used dirty tricks, like everyone else can do that!"
"Nobody in our village really knows how to use this thing."
Liu Mazi also poked his head out, pulled a bamboo arrow from the ground, and handed it to him: "Why don't you give it a try?"
"Idiot! You don't even have a bow, and you expect me to throw it with my bare hands?" Fatty Wang jumped up and slapped him on the back of the head.
He had barely finished speaking when someone handed him a bow and arrow.
"My brother is here."
Fatty Wang: "..." Damn it.
"Fatty, they're cutting the iron chain!"
Liu Mazi was rubbing the back of his head when he turned around and saw the two men on the other side swinging their swords and slashing fiercely at the iron chain.
"Let them cut it down, they can't get in anyway."
Fatty Wang shrugged indifferently.
Yuan Siyin frowned.
If outsiders can't get in, then those inside can't get out either, right?
She turned her head, took the slingshot from Liu Mazi's hand, bent down, picked up a stone, aimed at the leading soldier, and slingshot it away.
The pebble struck the man squarely between the eyebrows with a "smack," and he cried out in pain as his figure collapsed.
The other side immediately fell into chaos. They stopped cutting the iron chains and carried the leader away.
Fatty Wang was dumbfounded.
"My goodness, isn't this much better than your broken bow and arrow?" he said, nudging Liu Mazi with his elbow.
Liu Mazi nodded in agreement; this time, the two were surprisingly in agreement.
Yuan Siyin shoved the slingshot back into Liu Mazi's hand and leisurely called it a day.
Fatty Wang exchanged a glance with Pockmarked Liu and eagerly followed, calling him "benefactor" with great familiarity: "Benefactor, could you teach us that move just now?"
"Teach me what? Slingshots? I don't know how to use those either."
Yuan Siyin didn't stop, intending to go and say goodbye to Jin Dazhuang and leave Qingfeng Village as soon as possible.
Who knows when someone might secretly cut the iron chains? She didn't want to be forced into a cornered struggle.
"How can you say no? Your skill just now was simply superb!"
"That seems to be an extraordinary skill."
Liu Mazi whispered a reminder to him from the side: "You've been eating peanuts all day long, and now you know what peanuts are."
"Why are you so talkative?"
Fatty Wang chuckled and scratched his head, about to say something flattering, when he saw Jin Cancan rushing towards him, calling out "Sister Jin" repeatedly.
"When did our village get a Sister Jin?"
Hearing the whispers behind her, Yuan Siyin felt a little helpless and quickened her pace to stand in front of him: "What's wrong? Didn't I tell you not to shout like that?"
"My dad, my dad seems to have caught a disease!"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang immediately exclaimed, "What?! The Boss is sick?!"
Jin Cancan finally managed to grab Yuan Siyin's leg, and immediately started crying, panting, "Father chased me out and told me to come find you..."
Just as everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, Yuan Siyin swung her leg and ruthlessly kicked Jin Cancan away.
That's not all. What's even more surprising is that the little tyrant didn't whimper when he was kicked. He stood up without crying and became timid, just like a little follower.
