章節 20: Ambushed (2)
編輯: Dragon Boat Translation
This was really what he was afraid of. It was already too late for Ji Shui Sheng to order the villagers to hide. He picked up his bow and arrow and cocked an arrow to shoot, shouting, "Yongkang, old seven! Lead the group away!"
Ji Shui Sheng's archery was very accurate. With one arrow, he shot down the bandit who was about to push down the boulder. He did not stop for a moment and immediately loaded the second arrow, shooting it out. There were a few agonizing screams as the bandits who were about to push down the boulder were all shot through the chest and fell down the mountain.
However, he could only shoot the people who were exposed. Those bandits didn't expect Ji Shui Sheng to be so powerful that he could actually shoot an arrow up the mountain. That was why they were shot to death by Ji Shui Sheng.
After finding out how powerful he was, the bandits all hid at the back and pushed the rocks without showing their heads. Fortunately, a few of them had died. The remaining people were unable to push the huge rock down for a while and did not dare to pick up crushed rocks to throw down, as they were afraid of being shot to death by Ji Shui Sheng.
In this stalemate, there was time for the escape team to escape. Qiu Yongkang, Li Daniu, and a few others escorted the villagers out of the valley, while the old, weak, sick, and disabled were carried away by them.
Su Qing followed them to evacuate. When she walked out of the valley, she turned back to look at Ji Shui Sheng. The rock on the mountain had fallen at this moment. Ji Shui Sheng, who was holding an arrow, lowered his head to look into the quiver but did not notice the rock falling.
Su Qing didn't hesitate at all. She rushed towards Ji Shui Sheng and prepared to push him to safety.
However, she had forgotten that her God of War ability had only been upgraded to level six. She was not as good as she was in her previous life, so her speed was slow and her strength was weak. Not only would she not be able to save Ji Shui Sheng, but she would also get herself killed.
Fortunately, Ji Shui Sheng also realized that the huge rock had fallen. When he saw Su Qing pouncing over, he hugged her and rolled her to safety.
All of this happened in a flash of lightning. The moment the rock fell, everyone cried out in alarm. They saw a thin and weak shadow push Ji Shui Sheng over and the two of them seemed to have fallen under the falling rock together. The villagers' hearts were in their throats.
If Shui Sheng were to die, everyone would lose their backbone. The huge rock smashed into a deep pit and dust filled the air. Everyone's heart sank to the bottom. The force of the rock falling from a high altitude was at least a thousand jin. If it hit a person, they would definitely be flattened, and they would not be able to survive in the water.
At this moment, Ji Shui Sheng, who everyone was worried about, was frantically climbing up from Su Qing's body. His hand had touched a place that he should not have touched, and the soft feeling seemed like he had sunk into a pile of cotton.
Ji Shui Sheng's face was so red that it resembled the sunset. He did not even dare to look at the woman lying on the ground.
"I- I- I'll go up the mountain and kill them. "
He left after saying this, fleeing.
Su Qing held her waist, which was in pain, and sat up. She looked at the huge rock that had fallen and blocked most of the road.
Su Qing frowned.
Where was her cold attitude and iron heart? Why would she risk her life to save that man so that Xiao Ying would not be sad?
Moreover, what she did was completely unnecessary. Just now, even if she did not save Ji Shui Sheng, he would have been able to safely avoid the huge rock.
Su Qing stood up and tidied her dress. When they were rolling around together, that man's strong body had protected her, not allowing her to be hurt at all.
Su Qing raised her head and looked up the mountain. The bandits thought that they had been killed and were shouting in celebration; someone even blew a whistle.
The sound of the whistle was sharp and piercing, and it traveled a few miles. Su Qing's expression turned serious. This was the whistle used by the bandits to inform each other of their success. A large number of bandits would immediately come to kill them.
Just as she was thinking about this, she heard shouts. Then she looked at the dust flying outside the valley and the messy sound of horse hooves echoing in the valley.
This was not good…
The main force of the bandits had arrived. Su Qing looked around and spotted the place where the huge rock had landed.
The boulder blocked most of the road, and the empty space would only allow a single person or a single horse to pass. It was easy to defend and hard to attack, making it a natural barrier.
Su Qing quickly ran into the mountain rocks and looked around for a suitable weapon. She saw a four-toothed Trident on Ji Shui Sheng's cart and ran over to pull it out.
"Father, mother! Take everyone and run!" Qiu Yongkang saw the critical situation and shouted at his parents, asking them to leave with the villagers who were scared out of their wits.
"Old seven! Daniu! Let's fight it out with them."
Qiu Yongkang picked up the hoe he had brought out and turned to his two good friends. Su Qing was a woman, but she was already fighting the bandits. Why would they need the protection of a woman?
"Alright, let's go all out and take revenge for Shui Sheng."
Li Daniu's eyes were red, as he thought that Ji Shui Sheng had already been crushed to death by the huge rock. This hatred must be avenged.
Killing one was enough to break even. Killing two was enough to earn one. He was not afraid of death.
Seventh brother Jiang clenched his machete with both hands and gritted his teeth without saying a word. As a brother, he had to avenge Shui Sheng's death.
Su Qing didn't see the three of them coming to help her. She hid behind a boulder with a fork and listened calmly. When she heard the sound of a horse approaching, she suddenly stood up and quickly raised her fork, stabbing it into the stomach of the horse. The horse kicked its master to the ground, and Su Qing ruthlessly pierced the throat of the bandit.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, while Qiu Yongkang and the others looked at Su Qing in shock. This was the first time they had seen a woman be so ruthless.
It was a clean kill, not giving the opponent any chance to react.
After Su Qing killed the first bandit, the second bandit raised his machete and rushed over. She raised her fork and the horse stopped in its tracks in fear. The bandit on the horse couldn't stop himself and fell forward. Su Qing caught him with the fork expressionlessly and pierced him through his heart.
After killing two people in a row, the bandits at the back were in chaos. The bandit leader saw that the team was in chaos and no one dared to rush into the boulder again. He pulled the reins of his horse and looked left and right.
He pointed to the boulder and shouted to his subordinates, "Let's go up!"
"We're here to help you."
Qiu Yongkang had brought Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi to help Su Qing. After seeing how ruthless she was, Qiu Yongkang was much more polite to her.
"They're going to attack from above. You two go up and defend. Bring more stones. When you come up, throw them."
Su Qing glanced at Qiu Yongkang. The pale-faced scholar didn't have much combat power. She looked at Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi and gave an order.
The longer they held on, the further away Ji Xiao Ying and Auntie Li would be. Su Qing was confident that she would be able to survive in the end. As for the three men, she would leave it to fate. They were not the people she had to protect anyway.
Su Qing's orders were calm and short, and there was no room for doubt. It was as if she was born to be a commander. Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi subconsciously obeyed her.
Qiu Yongkang could feel Su Qing's contempt for him, and this made him very uncomfortable. He wanted to show her that he was not a weak scholar.
However, Su Qing did not even look at him. She walked out of the boulder with the fork dripping with blood and looked coldly at the bandits, who were ready to attack.
