Chapter 6: Harvest and Crisis
Chu Yun and the bolt hid behind the tree, Chu Yun held the broken gun tightly in his hand, and the bolt was holding a thick branch, and there was a noise in the woods in front of him, it was very sure that someone was moving, or it could be a large animal, no matter what it was, the two of them had to be very careful.
Finally, a figure pushed away a bunch of branches and came to the two of them, it seemed that he should be a rich man, because this guy was wearing a silk dress, which was more gorgeous than anyone Chu Yun had seen here. But he is in a very bad situation now, he is holding his stomach with one hand, the blood is constantly flowing out, it looks like he should be injured, and the other hand is holding a cloth bag, I don't know what it contains, the bag is a little heavy, he can only drag it on the ground and pull forward.
"Young master, I know this person, he is the shopkeeper of a restaurant, you see the bag he is holding, it is likely to be for food, should we go out?" Seeing this person, Tu Hai said in a low voice, his eyes lit up, and he focused on the bag in this person's hand.
"Wait and see if there's anyone else behind. Although Chu Yun also longs for food, he is still very cautious, yesterday because he was not paying attention to being blocked by a group of people, although he was not an enemy, but it also made Chu Yun have a long memory.
It didn't take long for the injured person to run past Chu Yun and the bolt, although the bolt was in a hurry, but Chu Yun didn't speak, he still waited patiently, just when the person in front of him was about to disappear in the eyes of the two people, there was another rattling sound in the woods, and a strong man ran out with a pig-killing knife, and then ran along the bloodstains of that person.
Seeing this scene, the bolt threw himself to the ground with the five bodies that Chu Yun admired, thanks to the fact that they didn't make a move, otherwise looking at the physique of this strong man, the two of them really might not be able to beat him.
Just after the strong man's figure also disappeared, Chu Yun still waited cautiously for a while, and then followed closely with the bolt, if what that person was holding in his hand was really food, then it was enough for Chu Yun to fight.
"Hou San, you brute, you run, why don't you run. After about a cup of tea, the big man caught up with the man in front of him, and the big man was holding a knife with hatred on his face.
"Big brother, the two of us can be said to be in-laws, I, Hou San, have never treated you badly, why are you persecuting you too much?"
"Hahahaha, big brother? Are you embarrassed to call me big brother? If I hadn't happened to meet your maid Xiao Tao, I wouldn't have known you were such a brute. I knew you were such a wolf-hearted person, I would never marry my sister to you if I died, what did you say when she married you as a wife, you actually used her to please your master. Even when the rebels came, you actually exchanged my sister for your own life, so that my sister was humiliated and died, I can't wait to eat your flesh and drink your blood. I've done so many for you, are you worthy of me, worthy of my sister?" said the big man with red eyes.
"That's stupid, if it weren't for the stupidity of you, obedient and easy to fiddle with, I would care if you lived or died. Your sister-in-law married to my Hou family, she is a member of my Hou family, and I can do whatever I want. If it weren't for your sister-in-law to accompany my master, how would I have become the shopkeeper? I can give you a few hundred yuan to open a shop? Do you think your sister-in-law is a golden branch and jade leaf? You came to kill me because I still fell in love with the food in my hand? What kind of good thing do you think you are? I have been using your brothers and sisters before? You came to kill me. Hou San shouted, the big man came over with red eyes, and he completely lost his mind when he heard Hou San's words.
"The big man is going to be defeated. Chu Yun and the bolt hid not far away and heard it clearly, what this Hou San did really had no bottom line, but seeing that he was injured, he had no power to resist, but Chu Yun clearly saw that he had one hand hidden on his waist, Chu Yun didn't believe in such a person, he would die at peace at this time, he must have some backhand, but the bolt was suspicious.
Just when Dahan was only one step away from the man, the injured Hou San took out something from his waist, and then pressed the mechanism without hesitation, and three short arrows shot out, Dahan shouted loudly, and fell down in response, Hou San sneered, lowered his hand and gasped for breath, which almost exhausted his last strength.
"Hahaha, your brothers and sisters are just pawns under my Hou San's hands, and they will never escape from my palm, and I will take you with me temporarily. I'm unwilling, damn Hu Ren, if you weren't here, how could I be so embarrassed, it took me half my life to become the shopkeeper, I hate it. Hou San gritted his teeth and said, the blood in his abdomen began to flow again, and it was obvious that he couldn't hold it anymore.
At this time, Hou San suddenly heard someone applauding, Chu Yun and the bolt walked out, and it was Chu Yun who applauded.
"Hou San, you are really a character, I am really optimistic about you, but it's a pity that your limit has arrived, otherwise your future is limitless. Chu Yun said the truth, although this Hou San has a ruthless temperament, but this kind of person can only get mixed up in society, but although Chu Yun admires it, he also hates such a person the most, and people still have to have a bottom line.
"You guys, I've got dry food here, a lot of money, and if you can save me, it's all yours. Hou San was shocked when he saw the two of them, and then he brought a trace of joy, he himself was destined to die here, but when he met other people, he brought a glimmer of hope to live. Chu Yun saw Hou San's emotional changes, and had to say that this person was really a talent buried in history.
"Bolt, go kill him. Chu Yun pointed at Hou San and said dryly.
"Yes. "The bolt has long been murderous to him, he knows Hou San, he didn't expect that Hou San, who used to look kind, turned out to be a brute in human skin.
"Plug, you are the bolt of Jixiangfang? I am three, waiting for the shopkeeper, bolt, I have money and food here, you save me, these are all for you, in addition, I also hide hundreds of dollars, you save me, I will take you to get it." How could Hou San not hear Chu Yun's words, he tried to impress the plug with friendship, but the bolt was unmoved, and a shot was inserted into Hou San's stomach, Chu Yun stared at Hou San tightly, Hou San even wanted to resist in the end, he touched his waist several times, and finally had no strength to take out something, and finally was stabbed in the stomach by the bolt, and it took a long time to swallow his last breath, his eyes were wide open, obviously unwilling to die. Chu Yun walked over, stretched out his hand and took out another sleeve arrow, he didn't expect that he really had hole cards, he was really a talent.
"Young master, there are Hu cakes and a lot of square hole money in it. The plug was overjoyed, and he didn't care about the money, but the twenty or so cakes in it were very precious. The Hu cake is very similar to the pancake that Chu Yun ate two days ago, except that the difference is that one has a trap and the other has not.
"It's good", Chu Yun was even more pleased to get two sleeve arrows to give himself the power to protect himself, these two sleeve arrows are very exquisite, and I don't know where Hou San got them, Chu Yun has studied them clearly, these two sleeve arrows can be used repeatedly, so Chu Yun wanted to go to the strong man and pull out the three short arrows, but he didn't expect that just as he was about to pass, the strong man actually sat up.
"Who are you? Why am I here? By the way, Hou San? I'm going to kill him. The strong man wanted to stand up, but he didn't stand up after standing up a few times, one of Hou San's three arrows hit his thigh, the other two arrows were shot in his stomach, and one arrow was shot in his chest, and he didn't know why this guy's vitality was so tenacious, and he didn't die.
"Don't look for him, we've already killed him. Chu Yun and the bolt moved out of the way, and the strong man saw Hou San's body at a glance. He didn't say anything, and he cried loudly, which was really earth-shattering.
"Don't cry, your enemy is dead, go away, here are two cakes for you to eat, and we will go back too." Chu Yun took out two Hu Biscuits from the bag and threw them in front of the strong man, and then wanted to leave, although this guy was injured, but in case this guy went crazy or wanted to shoot their food, Chu Yun and the bolt really might not be able to fight.
"Where to go, where can I go, revenge is also avenged, my family is gone, my sister is dead, I have nowhere to go. The strong man choked up.
"Your wounds are still bleeding, I'll help you take a look. Chu Yun originally wanted to leave, but he didn't know what he remembered, he stopped, and no matter what Dahan was thinking, Chu Yun walked up, and Dahan let Chu Yun look at him.
"You're in luck. Chu Yun checked the big man's body and said with a smile, except for the heel of Hou San's sleeve arrow that hit the big man's thigh, the other two didn't have any effect. One on the stomach was blocked by a piece of pigskin or cowhide in the big man's belt, and the one on his chest was blocked by the longevity lock hanging around the big man's neck, Chu Yun guessed that the big man should have been hit in the heart by a sleeve arrow, causing the big man to fall into a short coma, but in fact, there was nothing wrong at all.
Chu Yun pulled off Dahan's belt, and then tied Dahan's thighs, this was for fear of causing heavy bleeding when he pulled out the arrow, and then Chu Yun asked the bolt to pull out the short arrow on Dahan's leg, and the short arrow was almost inserted into it, and the process of pulling out the bolt almost made Dahan die of pain, but he gritted his teeth tightly and didn't faint. In the end, Chu Yun took out an herb from his pocket and bit it up and put it on him, mainly to stop bleeding. Chu Yun was born in medicine, but he still knows a lot about Chinese herbal medicine, as for whether the Han will be infected or whether the wound will be inflamed, Chu Yun is really not sure, the conditions are so simple, Chu Yun has nothing to do.
"Okay, that's all I can help you, you can do it yourself. Chu Yun stood up and wanted to leave, but the big man who was sleepwalking in the sky finally woke up.
"Don't go, you are the great benefactor of our Fang family, not only avenged my sister, but also saved me, if you don't dislike it, our mountain will give you a cow and a horse." The strong man struggled to kneel down for Chu Yun, Chu Yun was secretly happy in his heart, what he wanted was this result, although he was the leader, but the bolt and the others were all in a group, they might have seen so much property and food and abandoned themselves, it was not impossible, you must know that this is a troubled time, and the addition of the strong man is to lead the way.
Sure enough, the bolt was very reluctant, he secretly told Chu Yun that this Fang Dashan is so tall, the amount of food must be amazing, and one more person has one more mouth to grab food, but Chu Yun still stubbornly accepted Fang Dashan as a domestic servant, and the bolt has seen Chu Yun's magic many times, so he still reluctantly agreed.
Fang Dashan told Chu Yun that he had seen more than a dozen people leave the dense forest, looking like the people who killed the refugees, but he didn't see any women among them, Chu Yun was happy in his heart, it seemed that Su Jin hadn't met them, but why didn't Su Jin have any news?
Although Fang Dashan couldn't walk fast with a cane, he could still walk on his own, otherwise Chu Yun and the bolt would really not be able to get him back. He told Chu Yun that he was a pig-killing man, no wonder he was holding a pig-killing knife, and he was also so strong, nearly two hundred catties. Fang Dashan, who is more than 1.8 meters tall, is now considered a big man, and Chu Yun, a villager here, has never seen more than 1.8 meters.
When Chu Yun returned to the cave where he was hiding, Erdan and Lao Niu had already picked everyone back, and most of the other people who went out to look for Lin Sen and the generals had already returned, except for Tie Zhu, but Tie Zhu couldn't leave alone, you must know that he had a family here, and he didn't have anything to eat.
"In which direction is he going?" asked Chu Yun.
"To the west, deep in the dense forest, will the iron pillar be in danger? The plug frowned.
"Let's eat first, I told everyone to mark their routes, and when we're done, we'll look for them together. Chu Yun said.
Chu Yun personally distributed Hu Cakes to everyone regardless of fatigue, everyone was full of excitement, and everyone had a good impression of Chu Yun as the leader, after all, they had just followed Chu Yun and had Hu Cakes to eat, which undoubtedly increased Chu Yun's prestige.
In addition, Xiaohu found a bigger cave in the north, Chu Yun was going to take a look in person and then decide whether to move over, although the cave that Su Jin found was secret, it was too small, and a bunch of people crowded in it couldn't stretch their legs, but things needed to be done step by step, and Chu Yun was not in a hurry.
Fang Dashan stayed in the cave because of his injury, Chu Yun took the four people of Bolt, Erdan, Fugui and Lao Niu to look for the iron pillar, in fact, Chu Yun was already very tired, but in order to maintain this fragile small group, Chu Yun had to set an example.
Sure enough, the iron pillar left a mark, Chu Yun and the others followed the mark for a few miles, and suddenly lost the mark of the little tiger, Chu Yun asked several people to look for it separately, and in a jungle, the bolt found fragments of the clothes on the iron pillar.
Chu Yun walked over, he asked a few people to watch carefully, everyone said that this was the iron pillar, Chu Yun searched around the vicinity, and a fresh gap in a big tree not far away attracted Chu Yun's attention, Chu Yun looked carefully for a long time, and his face became gloomy.
"Withdraw, go back. Although they didn't know what the reason was, they still followed Chu Yun back obediently.
After going back, Chu Yun called out his only seven subordinates, originally eight, but the iron pillar was missing. When Chu Yun saw these people, he couldn't help but want to sing two sentences: I think that at the beginning, Lao Tzu's team had just opened, and there were only a dozen people with seven or eight guns in total. However, he is not as good as Hu Chuankui, and there are really not more than a dozen people.
"The iron pillar should have been kidnapped, and there are other forces around here besides us. Chu Yun didn't talk nonsense and directly said his conclusions. The group of people who grabbed the iron pillar were by no means the same group of refugees who split with them, because Chu Yun saw an extremely deep gap in the tree, which was cut out by a sharp big knife, Chu Yun would never be mistaken, and there was no such sharp weapon among the refugees. It wasn't done by those beggar soldiers, because Fang Dashan saw them leave.
After Chu Yun's words were finished, everyone froze, they thought that they were the only ones in the camp here, but it seemed that there were other people there. Just like Chu Yun said, whether they are scurrying over or here for a long time, if they have weapons in their hands, they may eat Chu Yun's small camp at any time, and when the time comes, those people may not be like the people of the beggar army, and they will eat them with their belts and meat, and when the time comes, they will really make the sky ineffective.
"Moving. Chu Yun said with an iron face, and the group immediately took action, but Tie Zhu knew this, if he said it, then they would be finished.
An hour after Chu Yun and the others left, more than thirty big men came here with a man who was tied up strongly, but unfortunately they were destined to come to nothing.
