He tossed aside the leaf in his hand, drew the long sword from his waist with a swift motion, and used his inner energy to blow the entire sapling down.
He carried the sapling back to the camp and went back without saying a word.
Yun Wu chased after him, calling out, "Second Brother, why didn't you ask me first?"
Yun Er was annoyed by the large badger leg.
"Get lost! So what if you can smell it? Do you know these leaves can be used in cooking and taste good with meat?"
Yun Wu was speechless; he truly didn't know.
Seeing his discomfiture, Yun Er's mood instantly improved. She sat on a rock, picked leaves from the branches, and put them into her cloth bag.
The people at the camp were busy until late at night before they finally packed up and went to sleep.
In her sleep, Lin Yinan suddenly felt a great earthquake. In a daze, she thought she was sleeping in a car.
wrong!
She suddenly opened her eyes wide and quickly rolled over, pressing her ears to the ground.
The sound of horses' hooves came from the foot of the mountain!
Are they soldiers from Jiancheng or Hu people?
Lin Yinan's first thought was of the Hu people.
She stood up, but before she could notify anyone else, a bloodcurdling scream came from the foot of the mountain.
"The barbarians are attacking!"
"Run!"
"Murder! The barbarians have killed someone!"
Immediately afterwards, countless people rushed up the mountain in a panic.
The camp was thrown into chaos in the blink of an eye. Some villagers who had less belongings grabbed their bundles and ran into the mountains behind the others.
Lin Shuo, Lin Yiheng, and Old Lady Zhao had already been awakened.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Lin Yinan hurriedly threw the things that hadn't been packed up at the camp into her spatial storage.
Lin Yi'an and Lu Changqing crawled out of bed and were immediately pulled into Li Shulan's arms.
Lin Shuo, Lin Yiheng, and Lin Yizhang were leading their two horses and one cow, tying grain and supplies onto the horses' and cow's backs.
Zhang hurriedly untied the hanging oilcloth, while Lin Yinan quickly picked up Lin Yichun, who was crying loudly in fright, and put her in her arms.
"Auntie, we don't need the things anymore."
"Mom! I'm so scared!"
Zhang threw down the oilcloth in her hand, pulled out her belt, and neatly tied Lin Yichun behind her back.
There were too many people fleeing, and families could easily be separated.
Grandma Zhao wanted to get the wooden bucket from the ground, but Lin Yinan stopped her and lifted her onto the cow's back.
"Grandma, lie down and hold on tight."
Then Lin Yi'an and Lu Changqing were secured to the horse.
At this moment, Lin Tiezhu's wife, along with her widowed mother and her brother-in-law Lin Tiezhuang, carrying large and small bags, took advantage of the chaos to run to Lin Yinan's house, intending to leave with them.
"Brother, lead them up the mountain," Lin Yinan said to Lin Yiheng, who was holding the horse's reins.
The shouts of battle grew closer, and she drew her dagger and held it in her hand, while flames raged below the mountain.
"Little sister, where are you going?" Lin Yiheng could tell from her expression that she didn't intend to go with them.
“The Hu people will catch up soon. I’ll hold them off here, otherwise no one will be able to escape.”
Lin Yinan slapped the rumps of both horses hard in succession, and the horses immediately started to move. When the ox saw the horses walking, it also started to follow.
Taking advantage of the darkness, she took out a crossbow from her spatial storage and filled the crossbow box.
She hadn't gone far when Lin Yiheng, knife in hand, followed behind her.
"Little sister, your brother will go with you."
Lin Yinan couldn't persuade him, so she stopped talking.
The brother and sister hadn't gone far when they saw Yun Mo leading his men into battle against the Hu people who had charged up the mountain.
Dressed in black, Yun Mo was like a cheetah in the night, rushing into the Hu people's ranks with incredible speed, beheading them.
Yun Er and Yun Wu, along with seven or eight guards, worked together, and soon a large number of Hu people fell to the ground.
Flames soared into the sky in the makeshift camp set up by the locals.
The Hu people, riding on horseback and wielding large swords, chased and slashed at the fleeing civilians, as if they were hunting.
Some women who couldn't escape were caught by the barbarian and dragged into his tent, where they were wantonly violated.
A few civilians picked up hoes and sickles to resist, but they were no match for the strong and battle-hardened Hu people. In no time, the Hu people swung their swords and cut off their heads.
Lin Yinan pulled the trigger of the crossbow and fired several arrows at the Hu people not far away, killing three of them.
Seeing their companion shot dead, the Hu people quickly found Lin Yinan, who was hiding in the darkness.
Once they realized Lin Yinan was a woman, they began to lewdly chatter and surround her.
"Little sister, watch out!"
Lin Yiheng was shocked and wanted to go over to help, but he was entangled by two Hu people and couldn't get away for a while.
Lin Yinan remained calm and composed, quietly putting the crossbow back into her spatial storage, drawing the sword that her original body carried, and charging towards the Hu people.
She was quick, accurate, and ruthless. With over a decade of combat experience, Lin Yinan was very skilled at killing with a single blow. Even if she couldn't decapitate the enemy immediately, she would first dismember their hands and feet to prevent the zombie from scratching her.
For a time, unrecognizable body parts hung among the branches and grass.
Lin Yinan's body and face were splattered with blood, and she looked like a demon that had crawled out of a hellish scene.
Her gaze, sharp as a knife, swept over the Hu people with a cold, murderous intent.
Looking at her younger sister fighting a bloody battle, Lin Yiheng had no other thoughts. Instead, she felt even more heartache. Back in Pingcheng, she had rescued her younger brother all by herself under similar circumstances.
The once soft and cute younger sister is gone forever, and Lin Yiheng is distracted by this.
The barbarian's knife was aimed straight at his chest when a boy rushed over and used a hoe to block it for him, avoiding a fatal blow, but his arm was slashed.
Lin Yiheng was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. He calmed himself down and, together with the boy, began to kill the Hu people around them.
After Yun Mo dealt with the last wave of Hu people, his gaze unconsciously followed that slender figure on the battlefield.
When I saw her pull the knife from the Hu man's body, a cold, murderous glint appeared on her lips.
His heart skipped a beat, as if it had been stabbed hard by a knife.
Yun Er wiped the sweat and blood from his face. Seeing this scene, he sighed inwardly. As expected of the woman his master had taken a liking to, her strength was comparable to his.
Then it occurred to me that if the couple were to fight in the future, I wouldn't know who would win or lose.
The ground was littered with the corpses of Hu people. Seeing that there were no survivors, Lin Yinan nodded to the others and bent down to pick up the spoils of war around him.
Upon seeing this, the boy beside Lin Yiheng threw down his hoe and quickly began searching the ground and the Hu people.
Suddenly, a disheveled little girl rushed out of the tent, picked up the woman covered in blood on the ground, and cried bitterly.
A middle-aged man was huddled not far away, letting out a low growl like a wild beast.
The young girl put down the woman, picked up the sword from the ground, rushed to the middle-aged man, and without saying a word, stabbed him.
"Go to hell! You good-for-nothing who always throws his wife and daughter out the door when things go wrong."
The little girl, her face filled with hatred, deftly drew the knife and then slit her own throat.
The knife fell to the ground, and the little girl used her last bit of strength to crawl toward the woman.
"It wasn't her fault, so why didn't she have the courage to live?"
Lin Yinan muttered to herself, then quickly bent down to pick up the scattered items on the ground.
Upon hearing this, Yun Mo paused, remembering the woman whose purity he had defiled in the cave.
I wonder if she is still alive?
