Apart from Chen Laosi who was carrying a real bow and arrow, everyone else was carrying a bamboo bow.
Don't ask where Chen Laosi got his bow; he borrowed it. It's a white-feathered bow, a birthday gift from his classmate.
Bai Yu was unwilling to lend his bow and arrows to others, but his grandfather took them to the Chen family without his permission.
Just as Chen Laosi aimed at an enemy, Bai Yu stopped him, saying with a mournful face, "Uncle Chen, let me try. You've never used this before, you won't be able to hit the target."
"Get out of my way, don't bother me," Chen Laosi said impatiently.
People around also advised, "Bai Yu, you should hide first. You can't fight. If a fight breaks out, we won't be able to protect you."
Another person added, "That's right, Bai Yu, you should hurry back with them and not hold us back. We'll return the bow and arrows to you when we're done using them."
While they were talking, Chen Laosi had already shot an arrow, but unfortunately he missed.
Bai Yu saw that Chen Laosi had already wasted an arrow, and he felt very distressed. There weren't many arrows to begin with, only a dozen or so.
Bai Yu said anxiously, "Uncle Chen, let me do it!"
"call out……"
Chen Laosi shot another arrow, but unfortunately, he missed again.
Chen Laosi was a little embarrassed. He seemed to have overestimated himself, thinking he could kill one person with one arrow, but he couldn't even hit the person.
Seeing that there weren't many arrows left, Bai Yu rushed over to snatch Chen Laosi's bow and arrows.
Suddenly, a villager ran in and shouted, "Quickly, retreat to the next ambush point!"
Chen Laosi was distracted for a moment, and Bai Yu snatched the bow and arrow back.
Bai Yu was left at the very back of the evacuation team. He wanted to run to the front, but he couldn't move!
Seeing that the bandits were about to catch up with them, Bai Yu took a deep breath, calmly turned around and nocked his bow.
The person in front saw Bai Yu stop and immediately turned around and cursed, "Bai Yu, what are you doing? Are you looking for death..."
Before he could finish cursing, with a "whoosh," a white feather shot through the neck of a bandit, killing him instantly.
The man stared in shock, never expecting that Bai Yu could wield a bow and arrow.
After hitting the target with an arrow, Bai Yu immediately turned and ran away.
The person running in front saw how good Bai Yu's archery skills were, immediately turned around, picked Bai Yu up and ran, not expecting him to be so useful.
He ran incredibly fast, quickly pulling ahead of the others by a large margin. After running far ahead, he put Bai Yu down and looked at him expectantly.
As expected, Bai Yu drew his bow and shot an arrow. With a "whoosh," he hit another bandit. Then, he hit several more arrows in succession!
Chen Laosi and the others looked at Bai Yu in surprise.
A boy exclaimed in admiration, "Bai Yu, I didn't realize you were so amazing!"
Bai Yu said proudly, "Of course, although we scholars value knowledge, the Six Arts of a Gentleman are also indispensable."
"My archery skills, while not quite hitting the bullseye every time, are still passable."
Chen Laosi was panting heavily as he ran. He realized that the race he had participated in earlier was definitely not fair, otherwise how could so many little rascals who could run faster than him suddenly appear?
Chen Laosi said breathlessly, "Bai Yu, there are only two arrows left. Shoot them dead quickly."
Bai Yu explained, "These two arrows are meant to be saved for a critical moment. Let's go, let's retreat quickly."
Chen Laosi asked, "Bai Yu, I didn't expect you to have such good archery skills! Your hand is really steady. But aren't you afraid of killing people?"
Bai Yu smiled and said, "When you have someone you want to protect, you have nothing to worry about."
On the other side, groups of middle-aged men set off with weapons; they were the backbone of the force.
Chen Laoda's wife took an axe and wanted to go out with Chen Laoda, but was stopped by Chen Laodi.
Old Man Chen said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you shouldn't go. Stay here."
Sanya tugged at her mother's clothes, pleading, "Mom, don't go..." Her father, along with her fourth and fifth uncles, had already been forced to leave. She didn't want her mother to go out too; she was afraid her mother would...
Chen Laoda's wife didn't look at her daughter; she just quietly looked at Chen Laodi.
Although Chen's eldest daughter-in-law didn't say anything, Chen's father knew what she meant, so he said helplessly, "Alright, go ahead, be careful. Oh, and we've prepared a weapon for you, take it with you."
The bandit leader led a group of men and charged towards the villagers of Anping Village.
"Kill them!"
Suddenly, a long stick appeared in front of them and swept towards them.
"Puff puff puff..."
It was the sound of blood spurting out.
That long stick was more than just a stick; two axes were tied to both ends of it. At this moment, the more than three-meter-long axe was mercilessly reaping the lives of the bandits. And the owner of this weapon was none other than Chen Laoda's wife, who had two axes strapped to her back.
This special weapon was custom-made for Chen's eldest son's wife by the two elders of the Chen family.
Chen Laoda's wife is incredibly strong, and this three-meter-long axe is perfect for her. It's heavy, long, and allows for ranged attacks, so she won't get hit by others.
When this weapon was brought out, everyone was dumbfounded. This thing looked like a joke, and everyone wanted to laugh but dared not.
Chen Kai could only sigh helplessly; his parents really knew how to have fun.
After killing a group of bandits, Chen's wife walked over to the bandit leader, whom she had just seen giving orders.
The bandit was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he cried out in a shivering voice, "No... don't come any closer!"
"Go! Go now! Kill her! Kill her!"
Before long, the men surrounding the bandit leader fell down. Chen's wife stepped over the corpses to approach him and then cut off both of his legs.
"Ahhh..."
A series of screams pierced the sky.
The nearby bandits heard the noise and rushed over to provide support.
The bandit leader roared like a madman, "Kill her! Kill her!"
After Chen Laoda's wife cut off his legs, she ignored him and let him shout and yell.
The number of bandits in this area is increasing, but she continues her merciless slaughter.
Seeing how ferocious she was, the bandits could only say viciously, "You bitch, you just wait!" and then ran off to call for reinforcements.
When Chen and his gang were helping the wounded pass by, they saw a lot of people attacking his wife. He immediately dropped the wounded, picked up his weapon, and rushed over.
But when Chen Laoda's wife glanced at him, he stopped in his tracks. He understood her look; she meant for him to leave with his men immediately.
Old Chen was very unwilling, but seeing that no one could get close to his wife now, he quickly led his men away.
Old Chen clenched his fists. He had only saved insignificant people, while his wife had been left outside to fight.
