Chapter 23: She has the mountain!
If the rough man who was examining the injury had not been so close and noticed the tiny hole in the deceased's coat, he would probably have overlooked it.
However, even though the heart wound was discovered, the bandits dug deep into the ground at the scene but could not find the murder weapon.
"Brother, that guy killed more than a dozen of our brothers in one go! Damn it, let's chase him and avenge our brothers!"
"Shut up!" The bandit leader's face darkened. He gritted his teeth and ordered, "Bury the body and return to the camp!"
"Brother! Are you just going to let those bastards go?!"
"Look at those two wounds before you speak! Chase after him? If you really chase after him, it's not revenge, it's death!"
“…”
The ruffian and the other bandits who followed him did not dare to speak.
There is a bandit camp on every hilltop on the Yudu Ancient Road, and they are just one of them.
They are said to be fierce bandits, known for their brutality and cold-bloodedness, but in reality they are just a mob, and those who can really fight can be counted on one's fingers.
If they really had to face a master who could easily kill ten enemies at once, they would be nothing.
Who is not afraid of death?
For those brothers lying on the ground, their fate has come to an end.
The bandits dug a hole on the spot, buried the bodies, and then left quietly.
As if nothing had happened.
The Su family had no idea that they had escaped another disaster, and they just focused on getting on with their journey.
But this time, I felt a little more confident when I was on the journey. There was an expert escorting me along the way, so I had help when something happened, so I didn't feel so panicked or scared.
"Hero, how many bandits are there on this ancient Yudu Road? This road always makes me feel eerie and gives me goose bumps. Do they, do they just - um?" Su Er was a rough man with a rather outgoing manner. After walking together for a while, he was already able to chat with the hero with ease.
Zi Yi's voice was indifferent. "There's a bandit stronghold on every mountaintop. The Yudu Ancient Road has a total of thirty-three peaks. Unless there's an expert escort, very few ordinary people can walk out alive after passing through this place."
"Oh my god! Then won't we have to encounter many bandits next?!" The faces of the Su family members changed slightly, and the feeling of nausea began to surge up again.
One bloody scene is enough to choke them, do they have to go through countless more?
"Although the bandits in each camp along the ancient road operate independently, they keep in touch with each other. Word of what happened in the withered forest should have spread to every mountaintop by now. They won't easily come out and risk bad luck. Bandits are also afraid of death." Zi Yi said, "Besides, there's really nothing to gain from you guys, so there's no need for them to risk their lives."
The Su family, “…” Thank you.
Tianbao was carried on his mother's back in a sling, snuggling in the blanket, feeling warm and drowsy.
The conversations in her ears were like a lullaby, so she simply closed her eyes and sank into space.
Under the ancient pear tree at the entrance to the space, there was a pile of pear needles scattered around, each stained with blood.
Tianbao picked up the pear needles and calmly washed the blood off them with stream water.
After her family was almost bullied at the border post last time, Tianbao accidentally discovered that she could control things in space as weapons. In the following days, she would immerse herself in space research whenever she had free time.
These pear needles were made by her trying her hand.
It's not laborious, but a bit tiring.
It took her more than half a month to make a bunch of pear needles, so after using them, Tianbao put the needles back into the space, determined not to waste them.
This is reusable.
As for killing someone, Tianbao didn't feel anything special. In her previous life, she was locked up in a laboratory as a test subject. Whether she was awake or asleep, she experienced endless pain.
No one taught her what was right and wrong. Besides learning about the various joints and vital organs of the human body, what she learned more was indifference.
Indifferent to human nature.
Indifferent to life.
Tianbao threw the washed pear needles back under the pear tree and tilted her head to think about it. No, she also learned how to prick people.
She knows where the needle hurts the most, where the needle will cause blindness, and where the needle will kill.
Those bad guys deserved to die, so she stabbed them all to death.
Thinking of this, Tianbao felt a little regretful. If she had this ability in her previous life, she would not have allowed those people in the laboratory to jump around for so long.
Standing up and shaking off the water droplets on his hands, Tianbao turned his head and looked through the space entrance at the person his second uncle was talking to.
This guy is a bit annoying. With him following her around, it's inconvenient for her to get food for her grandparents.
She was not afraid, but her grandparents were worried that someone would discover her abnormality and that she would be taken away... Alas, she couldn't let her grandparents worry.
"Hmph." Tian Bao pouted in grievance and said to the fish swimming around her feet, "You guys just behave here. Eat more and fatten up. The more meat you have, the better it'll taste."
The fish scattered in an instant, and their fat bodies tried hard to drill into the cracks in the rocks.
Not only Tianbao is worried, the Su family is also worried at this moment.
After a long night of stumbling and traveling, the family had long since digested the little food they had eaten last evening, and now they were tired and hungry.
But the wooden cart was empty, and there was nothing edible to find. The three little kids were so hungry that they were holding their stomachs and crying.
The family stopped temporarily halfway, and when they avoided Zi Yi, they all had bitter faces.
Zi Yi also noticed the family's plight, but she didn't suspect anything and just thought they were suffering from a lack of food.
"Wait here." He threw down a sentence and turned around and disappeared on the spot.
The Su family didn't dare to move or make any tricks. They just sat there and waited obediently.
Old Mrs. Su was worried that her granddaughter would throw things out again, and she would not be able to hide it. So when no one else was around, she held the child and repeatedly warned her.
Less than half a minute later, Zi Yi came back with two skinny gray rabbits in his hands and threw them at the feet of the Su family, "Food."
Treasure words as if they were gold.
After spending a night together, the Su family was no longer so afraid or unfamiliar with him. When they saw the wild rabbit, everyone's eyes lit up, and the three children even jumped for joy.
"Rabbit! Knight, where did you get this?"
Zi Yi, "Hunted in the mountains."
Su Da and Su Er understood what was going on and stepped forward without saying a word. Each of them picked up a rabbit and started to sort them out.
There is no need to find water anywhere. The ancient trail is covered with snow. When you need to clean, just rub it with snow.
Su laughed loudly, "Knight, your hunting skills are amazing. I've also gone hunting in the mountains before. If I wanted to hunt pheasants or rabbits, it would take at least a day or two. Sometimes I might not even see one even if I spent a whole day in the mountains."
Su Er also said, "We are just stuck and need to hurry. If we have time, we should be able to hunt some food along the way."
"You're just flattering yourself. You think you can find food just by looking at the mountains? In the cold winter, many people are short of food and water. If they want to fill their stomachs, they have to take the risk and run to the mountains. Any food in the mountains would have been snatched away long ago."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Tianbao opened his eyes and his eyeballs moved slowly.
Where there are mountains, there is food?
Can you find pheasants and rabbits?
Mountains, she has them!
