Chapter 6 Encountering Bandits

As night fell, everyone in Xiaohe Village turned into the trail under the command of Village Chief Wang.

Chu Yao also followed the team. She listened to Village Chief Wang's instructions and said that she was afraid of being attacked by Tatars at night, so it was safer to take the trail into the mountains.

She felt that Village Chief Wang was worthy of being the head of the village and a wise man.

Not only did they ask the villagers to take a small path into the mountains to avoid the Tatars, they also asked all the young and strong people to surround them to prevent the old, weak, women and children from being hurt when the enemy attacked.

But... Chu Yao looked at the wooden sticks, shovels and kitchen knives held by the villagers. These weapons are not good. Not to mention encountering Tatars, the bandits in this world all use machetes to deal with these villagers.

It's not a piece of cake.

It was completely dark now, and the villagers lit torches to light the way forward.

It was very quiet along the way, with shadows from the trees, and occasionally the calls of unknown birds, which inexplicably added a bit of a scary atmosphere to the mountain road.

Chu Yao was walking in the middle of the team with a backpack on her back. Behind her, Chu Qi was sleeping soundly, looking like she didn't know the suffering in the world.

Chu Yao is not as lucky as her. She used to watch horror movies a lot, and now she has deeply felt the horror atmosphere.

"whisper--"

Another bird call sounded, but it only rang for a moment and then disappeared. The sound was sharp and short, as if someone had strangled the neck tightly after making a sound, and the neck was broken with a crunch.

Chu Yao arched her back, wishing she could hide in the crowd so that no one could see her. At this moment, a shadow flashed across the left side.

The shadow showed its teeth and claws, like a monster in the forest.

"Kacha——"

It was the sound of branches being trampled down.

Chu Yao came to her senses and thought that the shadow just now should be a tree branch.

"Hoo~"

She breathed softly and tried not to think too much.

This is not the 21st century, there can’t be another Ah Piao jumping out...

"Ah wu——"

Um?

Chu Yao suspected that there was something wrong with her ears. How could she hear ghosts screaming?

"What sound?"

"Who is shouting!"

"Mom, I'm afraid~"

The villagers in Xiaohe Village also heard this strange sound.

Village Chief Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had thought of something. He asked his son to stop the bullock cart, then he got up and raised his arms and shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, keep your weapons, there may be an enemy attack!"

Enemy attack!

Does that mean that the sound was deliberately made by the enemy to scare people?

The villagers in Xiaohe Village suddenly became alert.

The men stood nervously on the side with weapons in hand, while the women held their children and guarded their belongings.

Chu Yao looked around and couldn't help but frowned. There were mountains on both sides, leaving only a small trail in the middle. The team stopped in the middle. If the bandits ambush in the mountains...

"Bang!"

"Oh!"

When Cao Cao arrived, many boulders suddenly rolled down the mountain roads on both sides, smashing the heads of many villagers.

"Master, master, what's wrong with you?"

"Baby's daddy! Baby's daddy, hold on!"

"Woooooooo..."

Most of the people whose heads were smashed were men who were protecting their families. Their wives and children who fell behind were all panicked.

Chu Yao was almost hit by a boulder just now, but fortunately she was quick to avoid it. She was carrying a basket on her back, but Chu Qi had already woken up and was crying loudly!

The other children were also affected and started crying loudly.

Chu Yao felt that these children were crying so much that her brain hurt. She dodged the wood and stones that came down from the mountain and shouted: "Don't stop here, everyone, get out of here quickly, or else we will be surrounded by bandits later."

!”

However, after all, she had only been here for less than a day, and no one in the village listened to her or took her words seriously.

Seeing more rocks rolling down and hitting the villagers, Chu Yao had no choice but to dodge and run towards Village Chief Wang, shouting: "Village Chief Wang, let everyone leave here quickly. Don't take those belongings. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

Got it!"

Village Chief Wang was also caught off guard. Who would have thought that bandits would set up an ambush here.

He was in a state of confusion when he heard Chu Yao's words, as if someone had pressed a switch, and hurriedly said loudly: "Yes, everyone, run! The bandits are coming down soon to arrest people! Everyone, run!"

After listening to the village chief's words, the villagers began to prepare to run away, but there were still some people who were reluctant to part with their belongings and would take bowls and basins at different times, including Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu.

Chu Yao happened to see this scene when she turned back while running. She shook her head helplessly, how long had it been since she was still reluctant to part with those things.

Forget it, I have been reminded several times, whether she likes to run or not, she is going to run.

I always feel like bandits are coming.

Sure enough, not long after she ran into the woods, she heard the sound of killing behind her, mixed with the cries of children.

Among them, Chu Yao seemed to hear the voice of Uncle Niu and Aunt Niu, her footsteps paused for a second, and the next moment she continued running.

If he could set up an ambush on the mountain road, he knew without even thinking that it must be a vicious bandit. Chu Yao was not bold enough to rush back, nor was she confident enough to rescue the villagers from the bandits.

However, do you think Chu Yao will be saved if she runs out first?

Bandits will tell you that they also set up an ambush in the woods.

No, when Chu Yao ran into the forest not far, she encountered a group of bandits blocking the road.

There were about five or six of them, just as Chu Yao thought, each of them had a big sword.

When they saw a little girl in Chu Yao carrying a child, they were like a wolf seeing a sheep.

Chu Yao saw their eyes glowing green, and her heart trembled.

Before they could come forward, Chu Yao turned around and ran back.

Seeing her running back, the bandits behind her couldn't help but laugh three times:

"Hahaha, fifth brother, look at this girl, is she scared out of her wits? If she runs back over there, isn't she still one of ours?"

"That's right, let's chase slowly, don't be in a hurry."

While talking, they chased Chu Yao.

Slowly, he didn't take Chu Yao seriously at all.

Yes, Chu Yao is now a thin bamboo pole with a height of less than 1.6 meters, messy hair, and weighing about 80 pounds.

Who would take her seriously?

To these bandits, Chu Yao was like a little chicken waiting to be slaughtered, the kind they could crush to death with one finger.

However, facts have proven that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and it is even more undesirable to underestimate the enemy.

They must have never thought that they would die in the hands of a little chicken like Chu Yao.

Of course Chu Yao knew that there were bandits behind her, she was just pretending to run back to buy herself time to get her weapon.

She remembered that she had capsized a boat full of firecrackers in the underwater space before.

She still remembered seeing a slope when she ran into the woods.

At this moment, relying on the bandits not taking her seriously, she accelerated and rushed behind the slope and dodged into the space.

He quickly took out a firecracker, placed Chu Qi behind the slope, and walked out of the slope carrying the kitchen knife and firecrackers.
