Yiming did not try to persuade him any further, and got back on his horse and returned to Chai Shijing's side.
Chai Shijing glanced back at Kang Yueran. He said, "Men and women should be separated and should not ride together." He said nothing, but slowed down his pace.
When they arrived at the entrance of Shitou Village, Chai Shijing sent half of his men to suppress the bandits and the other half to rescue the villagers of Shitou Village.
Kang Yueran took out a bow and crossbow from his bag and prepared himself.
Yiming was a little envious when he saw the crossbow, "Miss Kang, do you have a new crossbow?"
"I already have one. This type of crossbow is smaller, has a shorter range, and uses smaller arrows. It's different from the one I used that day."
"The arrows are indeed different. The arrows from that day were twice as long as this one."
Kang Yueran smiled and didn't respond. "Let's go!"
The officers and soldiers received the order to attack and rushed towards the village with swords in hand.
Chai Shijing dismounted and walked up to Kang Yueran, saying, "Miss, are you waiting here?"
"Aren't you going?"
"Three hundred officers and soldiers are enough!"
Why did she have to work so hard when she could rest? "Then I'll wait here with you." He said, putting the crossbow back into his bag.
The sound of weapons clashing and people shouting could be heard in Stone Village.
After a while, soldiers and officers came out escorting several villagers. The villagers ran towards Kang Yueran and others at the village entrance, and the soldiers and officers went back to continue rescuing people.
Yiming stood in front of Chai Shijing with a sword in hand, pointing to a place not far away and saying to the villagers who were approaching, "Go over there!"
The officers and soldiers were brought by Chai Shijing from the capital, and they were far inferior to the city defense troops of Anzhou.
Half an hour later, the noise in the village gradually died down. The more than one hundred people who had been rescued began to wipe away their tears.
An old man in his fifties or sixties ran up to Kang Yueran, knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you very much for saving my life, young lady. I will never forget your great kindness..." He said this with gritted teeth.
Danger happened in a flash. The old man reached out and grabbed Kang Yueran's right arm, trying to pull Kang Yueran into his arms.
Kang Yueran was caught off guard and her body tilted, about to fall. She quickly took a step back to steady herself, grabbed the old man's arm, raised her right foot and kicked him...
At the same time, Chai Shijing also took action. He was afraid that Kang Yueran would fall on the old man, so he turned around and grabbed Kang Yueran's left arm tightly, pulling it towards him...
Kang Yueran didn't expect Chai Shijing to suddenly pull her. She kicked out with great force, and she was so strong that Chai Shijing not only failed to hold her back, but was dragged over by her instead...
During the struggle, Kang Yueran and Chai Shijing's bodies collided with each other and then quickly separated.
Kang Yueran's head hit Chai Shijing's chin, and she cried out in pain.
Chai Shijing was also in great pain. He moved his jaw left and right and asked, "Are you okay?" After asking, he immediately looked away, his ears slightly red.
Kang Yueran rubbed his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Chai Shijing looked at the old man who was kicked five or six meters away. The old man was holding his chest and was in so much pain that he couldn't get up.
If he hadn't pulled Kang Yueran's hand, she would have probably kicked the old man to death. She was really strong!
Yiming looked at Kang Yueran with her mouth wide open. She had kicked someone so hard that he was seriously injured. She really had supernatural powers. He had thought the spy was exaggerating before, but he didn't expect it to be true.
Kang Yueran looked at the villagers and asked, "Who else is from the Tiger Gang?"
All the villagers lowered their heads and said nothing.
"That means there are still people from the Tiger Gang among you. I heard that all the able-bodied men in Stone Village were killed by the Tiger Gang.
Ha! The Tiger Gang killed your relatives and insulted your wives and daughters, and none of you dared to stand up and point fingers. Stone Village? I think we should stop calling it Stone Village and call it Soft Egg Village.
An old man in his sixties pointed at a thin old man in the crowd and cried out, "It's him! It's him! He is Yin Wang's father. The one the girl just kicked down is Zhao Xue's father."
Old Man Yin pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and held an old woman next to him hostage. "Don't come over, or I will kill her."
The old woman was so frightened that her voice was trembling. “Don’t come over here, don’t come over here. I don’t want to die.”
The villagers were afraid of getting hurt and immediately scattered.
Kang Yue walked a few steps to the side, stretched out his right hand and pressed the sleeve arrow.
Old man Yin was shot in the thigh and fainted.
The old woman held her head and squatted on the ground screaming.
Kang Yueran scolded: "Shut up, you're making so much noise!"
Yiming went over to check on Old Man Yin and asked Kang Yueran, "Girl, where did you get this anesthetic? It's so powerful!" She fainted immediately after being shot. It was so effective.
"My master gave it to me. I don't know where I got it from. Don't ask me if I still have it. I don't! Don't ask me if I can still match it. I can't!"
Yiming frowned and said, "Miss, you said that as if I were going to steal your things."
"This medicine is really effective. Many people have asked me about it, so I'm used to answering it. It's not targeting you!"
As they were talking, the officers and soldiers came back one after another.
A man ran up to Chai Shijing and replied, "Your Highness, the Tiger Gang has been completely killed, and the villagers of Stone Village have all been rescued. In addition to these, there is another family whose house is full of women. Those women are in dishevel and have not come out."
Everyone knows why he is so disheveled.
Chai Shijing glanced at Kang Yueran unconsciously and said to his subordinates, "You take your men and stay here to verify the identities of everyone. Don't let any of the Tiger Gang go."
The Tiger Gang had been completely eradicated, and with Chai Shijing's men taking care of the loose ends, Kang Yueran had nothing to worry about. She said, "Your Highness, Prince Ping, since things here are settled, I will be leaving first."
"Are you going to hunt wild boar?"
"Yeah, Dacheng and the others are still waiting for me."
Chai Shijing also wanted to go, but didn't know how to start the conversation, so he glanced at Yiming.
After years of getting along, Yiming understood his master's intentions very well. He said, "Miss Kang, my master and I have never hunted a wild boar before. Can I go with you to see it?"
"You've never hunted?"
"We have, but there are no wild boars in the enclosure." Wild boars have strong attack power, so who would dare to let them into the enclosure where the nobles hunt.
Kang Yueran didn't care. "Okay, if you want to go, let's go together. Let's go!"
Chai Shijing led his own horse but did not ride it. Yiming also led his horse, "Miss Kang, let's go!"
Wild Boar Ridge
Hu Dacheng and others were waiting for Kang Yueran under the shade of a tree.
The group began to walk up the mountain. Duan Fei squeezed next to Kang Yueran and asked, "Boss, let me join you in the encirclement this time."
Hu Dacheng was unhappy. "Last time, it was the girl who asked me to protect the villagers who came up the mountain with us. This time, there are no villagers, so I can encircle them with the girl."
Duan Fei raised his crossbow and said, "I'm a very accurate archer."
Hu Dacheng also raised his crossbow and said, "I'm also good at archery!"
