The younger brothers behind him drew their swords and rushed forward. At this time, several arrows were shot at them. This time they were prepared and avoided the arrows, but their formation and speed slowed down.
Soon, the two sides started fighting. The people on both sides were about the same, so the team was not at a disadvantage for a while.
Shen Jingyuan held the big knife and faced the man head-on. With just one blow, the man retreated several steps.
His face was serious, and he swung the knife at the people around him without showing any mercy, using all his strength.
They killed several people in one go. Shen Changshan and Lin Hu were no less impressive. After killing people, they picked up weapons from the ground and gave them to the unarmed people on their side.
Jiang Chao, who was sitting on the horse, saw this scene and directly picked up the bow and arrow hanging on the back of the horse and aimed at Shen Jingyuan.
“Swoosh~”
Lin Feng and Shen Changshan both saw it and were immediately shocked, "Boss, be careful!"
Shen Jingyuan looked back and saw an arrow flying straight towards him. It was too fast and it was too late to dodge.
Just as he was about to turn sideways to avoid the vital parts, he was bumped into by Lu Jing next to him, and both of them fell to the ground.
The arrow brushed past Lu Jing's arm and finally shot into the tree behind the two of them, with the entire arrowhead embedded in it.
Xu Taohua, who was behind, could hardly breathe when she saw this scene. Now that she saw that Shen Jingyuan was fine, she gasped for breath.
Seeing that he had dodged, Jiang Chao picked up another arrow and wanted to shoot Shen Changshan.
“Swoosh~”
A small stone flew straight towards his temple. He dodged it suddenly, but was still hit on the head by the stone. He fell off his horse and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
When Chen Li came back and saw that scene, her heart was gripped tightly.
Fortunately, Lu Jing pushed his elder brother, otherwise, with the force of the arrow, his elder brother would have needed a long time to recover from the injury if not disabled.
Chen Li arrived quickly on Chi Yan, then jumped off his horse, drew his long sword and joined the battle.
Pei Yu, who was following closely behind her, saw this and asked his men to go up and help.
"An Yi, bring some people to help."
"yes."
Shen Erhe was stabbed on the shoulder, but fortunately, it was not serious. His two cousins were also slightly injured. Shen Yanshan's arm was also cut with several cuts. Li Qiaolan was stabbed in the abdomen in order to protect Xu You.
The most seriously injured person was Dr. Liu's eldest son, Liu Degui. He was stabbed in the back and fainted on the spot.
With the addition of Chen Li and Pei Yu's men, the battle ended quickly. Even the few people who did not come over were dealt with by them. As for the refugees, they were released on the spot.
The stolen food and luggage were returned to them, and the group of refugees disappeared in a short while.
Pei Yu's men also captured two people alive, one of whom was Jiang Chao, who was knocked off his horse by Chen Li and was still alive.
Pei Yu's men found what they wanted on them, and then took them to Pei Yu.
"master."
An Yi respectfully handed the token in his hand to his master. Pei Yu looked at it and said, "Keep an eye on him and let him lead the way."
An nodded, bowed, and left.
After the battle, the women who were hiding at the back hurried down and rushed towards their husbands. Doctor Liu, who was hiding at the back, also hurried out with the medicine box and staggered towards his eldest son.
Chen Li looked at each of her family members one by one, and fortunately, no one was injured.
Lin Cuicui threw away the long knife in her hand, pulled Shen Jingyuan to check carefully, and then pulled up Lu Jing from the ground. In order to save Shen Jingyuan, the child's left arm was cut by an arrow, and his clothes were soaked with blood.
She quickly pulled Lu Jing to the mule cart and said, "Come, let me treat your wound."
Lu Nian had already come down, with tears in her eyes, and her little hands were tightly clutching Lu Jing's clothes.
Xu Taohua also hurried over, holding medicine and gauze in her hands, and looked at Li Qiaolan who was slumped on the ground for a second.
"mother……"
Chen Li also saw it, walked over, picked the person up, and carried him into the carriage.
He stuck his head out and looked at Xu Taohua, "Sister-in-law, give me the medicine. I'll treat my wound. Don't come up to see me."
"good."
Xu You and Shen Jingyuan supported her to prevent her from being stimulated and fainting on the ground.
Shen Changshan took a look at the situation present. He also recognized Pei Yu and walked over. "Thank you, Master Wei."
Pei Yu shook his head, "No need, it's just a matter of convenience."
"Master Wei, what should we do with those horses?"
Pei Yu took a look at the horses. They were neither too good nor too bad, just okay.
"Uncle Shen, I haven't been able to help much. Can I buy a few of these horses from you?"
Shen Changshan shook his head, “Mr. Wei has helped us a lot, no need to talk about buying it.”
Pei Yu did not agree. He knew that even if they were not there, with Chen Li coming, these people would be dealt with sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.
Besides, he doesn't need this little money.
"Tianqing, negotiate the price of the horse with them."
"yes."
This time, Shen Changshan did not refuse. Even if his family did not need the money, the other people in the team also needed it. After talking to Tianqing, he left in a hurry. The team was still busy and had no time to talk to him more.
There were several wounded people in the team, but there were a few more horses to share the burden.
Chen Li rolled up Li Qiaolan's clothes and clearly saw the wound on her abdomen. It was okay, but if it was deeper, she would need stitches.
"Auntie, please bear with me, I'm going to start."
Chen Li found a piece of cotton cloth, wrapped it around Li Qiaolan's mouth, asked her to bite it, then lowered her head and began to treat the wound carefully.
She replaced the golden wound medicine given by her sister-in-law with the medicine she made in the space. The formula was the same, but the medicine was more effective and could help the wound heal faster.
Chen Li treated the wound quickly. After bandaging it, she helped her put down her clothes and said, "Auntie, since it's inconvenient for you to move around now, just rest in the carriage."
Li Qiaolan's entire face was covered in sweat, even her hair was wet, and her lips were pale due to excessive blood loss.
"Thank you, Ali."
After Chen Li treated her wound, she went downstairs. There was still a mess outside, so she had to deal with it as soon as possible and then leave.
The smell of blood here is too strong and it will easily attract wild beasts in the mountains. Although I am not afraid, there are many wounded people in the team. They are already injured, and if they are frightened again, it may affect the subsequent journey.
When Chen Li got off the train, most of the injured people had their wounds treated, and each family was packing up their belongings and preparing to set off.
When Pei Yu saw Chen Li coming out, he wanted to leave with his men, but Chen Li walked straight towards him.
