Chapter 46: Resisting Foreign Enemies



It was late at night and the sun had long since set.

The air in Gongzhou cannot retain heat. As soon as night falls, the temperature will drop significantly. The highest temperature during the day can be 50 degrees. As soon as the sun goes down, the temperature will drop significantly. Now, it is estimated to be around 30 degrees.

Inside the bamboo wall on the second floor terrace.

Kuang Qianli breathed a sigh of relief: "There's a little night breeze, it's much cooler."

Cool?

Wang Juanfeng and the carpenter immediately looked at him with strange eyes.

Kuang Qianli came from a furnace city, so he felt that the weather was cooler than that at night. But for the locals who were used to the local temperature in Gongzhou, this weather was undoubtedly still very hot.

After Qiao Xuejun and Kuang Qianli went up to the second floor, they stared outside the gate through the observation window. Wang Juanfeng and the carpenter also followed them.

The young carpenter moved closer to the observation window, holding her electric saw in her hand, and looked out, complaining: "This weather is too hot. When will it cool down? Do we have to wait until winter?"

It won't rain in winter, Qiao Xuejun thought. If it lasts for a whole year, it should not change until the end of March tomorrow. But she couldn't say this, so she just told the carpenter: "Don't squeeze the solar panels."

The original purpose of the bamboo wall surrounding the second floor was to protect the solar panels on the roof and ensure that they would not be seen by passers-by outside the wall.

At the beginning, Qiao Xuejun only installed 12 photovoltaic panels and kept 12 for replacement. He calculated that 12 panels would be enough to power the air conditioners that would be installed later. But later, Wang Juanfeng's medicine cabinet needed electricity, so three more panels were installed. Now there are 15 photovoltaic panels, which are more than enough to power two large appliances.

But the area is a bit larger, so it's a bit crowded.

The carpenter: "I will be careful not to squeeze the solar panels."

Kuang Qianli held the compound bow in his hand, pulling the bow repeatedly to get used to the feel, and asked with some doubt: "Will they really come?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kuang Qianli saw two figures sneaking outside the gate. He immediately stood up and moved closer to the observation window: "Fuck, are there really people here? Are they really here to steal things from us?"

The sky was cloudless and the moon was high in the sky, illuminating the yard inside and out.

The two men outside the gate were sneaking around and nowhere to hide. Kuang Qianli looked at them holding steel bars and hatchets, and felt horrified.

Qiao Xuejun was not surprised, and through the system's surveillance footage, she could even hear the two people talking in a low voice.

The tall and thin man among them said, "Do you really want to go in? This house doesn't look easy to enter."

Another bearded man waved the hatchet in his hand: "They are just two powerless women, what are you afraid of? Just go in and chop them up! Two little girls, they are not worthy of my chop, humph, come in!"

After saying that, the bearded man began to climb inside through the big iron gate.

Wang Juanfeng and the carpenter also saw it and their faces turned pale.

Wang Juanfeng's reaction was particularly obvious. After her initial fear, she was filled with hatred: "These are the people, Old Zhao and his three-year-old grandson. They obviously shouldn't have died... Now they are coming to kill us again."

Looking at the big hatchet on the other side's back, Qiao Xuejun's eyes turned cold and ordered Kuang Qianli: "As soon as they enter the outer wall, you must shoot arrows immediately, quickly, and don't give them a chance to hide."

Kuang Qianli tensed up, raised his bow and aimed at the two figures through the observation window. His voice was tense: "Where to shoot?"

Qiao Xuejun thought he was stupid and taught him: "Shoot where I hurt you."

Make the opponent lose their combat effectiveness and ability to move first, then we can talk about it later.

The two men climbed up to the top of the wall and used the moonlight to see the bamboo strips covering the inside of the wall.

"Damn, this little girl is so vicious. These bamboos are sharpened so sharply and laid so wide. If I jump down like this, won't I be pierced through?"

The bearded man spat: "I'll pull them out later, press them on the bamboo sticks, and let them taste the pain for themselves!"

The night was quiet. This time the bearded man spoke with anger, and his voice was not lowered. The four people on the second floor could hear it clearly.

"Damn it. Shame on you."

Qiao Xuejun heard Wang Juanfeng beside her gritting his teeth and cursing inwardly.

Kuang Qianli, who was originally hesitant and nervous, suddenly became determined, and the tip of the arrow pointed directly at the bearded man.

The two invaders spotted the right spot and jumped down, avoiding the bamboo strips.

"Damn it, there's still a wall!"

Beyond the bamboo strips is the loess wall inside.

Qiao Xuejun's pupils dilated slightly as she closely watched the actions of the two men.

Take one more step, right... "Bang!"

They triggered the early warning device buried in the bamboo carpet, which caused a loud explosion. The two men were also stunned and were shocked to the spot.

"Shoot!" Qiao Xuejun reminded immediately.

The arrow in Kuang Qianli's hand flew off the bow and headed towards the shoulder of the bearded man.

The bearded man happened to look up and didn't even see what was coming towards him, so he pulled his companion over to block in front of him.

"bass!"

A sharp arrow pierced his throat.

The arrow aimed at the bearded man was unexpectedly blocked by his companion and directly hit the man's throat.

The man stared in disbelief, his mouth opened and closed but no sound came out. The next second, blood gushed out from his throat. The amount of bleeding was so heavy that his clothes turned red.

——He won’t survive. This much bleeding must be from the carotid artery.

Qiao Xuejun's face darkened. At first, she just wanted to threaten and intimidate them, to make them suffer a little and not come here again. But now that someone has died, there is no way to let it go peacefully.
