The sun hung high in the sky. The cold winter sun wasn't scorching, but on the contrary, it felt very comfortable. The group of hunters from Teng Jia Village laughed heartily as they hurried on their way.
"Yongjiang, how much did you sell the animal skins for?" Teng Yongfan asked.
"Old Wang did a lot of business with us and gave us a good price. The animal skins were sold for more than three hundred and fifty taels of silver!" A tall and honest looking middle-aged man said with a smile, "However, it can't compare to the ferret that Qingshan caught."
"I asked Wan Xiang Tower today and they were willing to pay four thousand taels of silver for an intact ferret fur." Teng Qinghu praised.
"Ferret fur is priceless. The chief is not in a hurry to sell it. However, Qingshan made a great contribution, so the chief should reward him. "
Teng Yongfan smiled and glanced at his son. As a father, he was proud of his son's strength. Teng Yongfan laughed and said, "It's fine as long as it's enough. Isn't everyone working so hard for the clan? However, the ferret fur is really expensive. This time, my master and I worked so hard to forge so many Frost Jade Sabers, but the money we earned couldn't even compare to the price of a ferret. "
The surrounding clansmen couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh right, Yongjiang, where are the steamed buns and flatbread we brought this morning? Take them out and let us eat some. It will take us another four hours to go back." Teng Yongfan reminded.
"Come, two steamed buns and two flatbread each."
He opened a cloth bag and began to distribute the buns and flatbread to everyone. Teng Qingshan also took the buns and flatbread.
He took a big bite and fiercely chewed. He then took out a bamboo tube filled with water and drank some.
"These steamed buns taste really good." Teng Qingshan thought to himself. Eating the buns and flatbread, drinking cold water, and joking with a group of rough men, Teng Qingshan inexplicably felt a sense of warmth. "I like this kind of life!" Looking at the blazing sun, Teng Qingshan thought to himself.
This was a group of sincere and simple men.
"Does everyone know why Master Hong Si of the White Horse Gang is called Hong Si?" Teng Yongfan asked while eating happily.
"It's just a name. What else could it be?" The group of clansmen didn't know.
Teng Yongfan laughed heartily and began to talk to his clansmen about how the expert 'Yang Fan' had chased after the four Hong brothers.
*****
When Teng Qingshan's group was hurrying along, they were about five or six miles away from them.
There was a mound on the side of the road. The mound was full of withered weeds. Behind the mound, there was a group of bandits hiding.
"Buttface, why are you in such a hurry? Why did you ask me to lead my men and set up an ambush here? Could it be that your Brother Lang sent me a false message to fool me?" A burly man with dark skin, eyes as big as an ox's, and a stocky, stocky build, wearing a large black cotton robe, wielding a thick machete, revealing his black hairy chest. This man was the leader of the bandits.
The triangular-eyed man said in a low voice, "Don't worry, boss. There's no mistake. That brother of mine is working for a big salt merchant. Why would he lie to me? If I wasn't 100% sure, would I have ridden here and asked you to come out? "
"I don't think you would dare." The fierce bandit leader sneered. "Go ahead and keep an eye on them. When they arrive, immediately warn us."
"Okay." The lean triangular-eyed man's body was nimble. He ran more than ten feet away and stared at the road.
"Brother, are we enough?" Beside the fierce bandit leader was a handsome young man.
"Don't worry, third brother. According to what Buttface said, there are a total of thirty-one people! One of them is just a kid. In fact, it can only be counted as thirty people! Our hundred and three brothers, damn it. Let's give them a few waves of arrows first. I estimate that more than half of them will fall. As for the remaining eleven or twelve, won't it be easy to kill them all? Hmph, if it weren't for the ten thousand taels of silver, I wouldn't even bother to bring so many brothers. "The fierce bandit leader stabbed the machete on his back into the ground and sneered.
"Brother, be careful. After all, they are hunters." The handsome young man reminded.
"What are you afraid of? Your brother, me, alone, with one machete, can chop them until they cry for their parents! "The fierce bandit leader fiercely spat and cursed.
After a long time.
"Boss." Not far away, the triangular-eyed man bent his body and scurried over. His face was full of joy. "The fat antelope is here. It's about a hundred Zhang away. That group of people are wearing animal skins. I recognized them from afar.
The fierce bandit leader's eyes lit up. The surrounding bandits were all very excited, but none of them made a sound. These bandits were all experienced bandits. They were very clear … that at this time, they absolutely could not expose their whereabouts.
"Brothers." The fierce bandit leader lowered his voice, his face ferocious. "In a moment, when that group of hunters comes near, wait for my order. Brothers, we will mercilessly shoot them. It is best to kill most of them at the beginning. After we rob them, we will go to the Spring Fragrance Courtyard to have fun! "
The bandits all laughed, but there was a ferocious glint in their eyes, as if they were ferocious beasts ready to attack.
… …
Teng Qingshan and his group didn't know that there was an ambush in front of them. Those bandits had already begun to take out their arrows and were ready to attack.
The bandits' movements were very quiet. Normally, ordinary people wouldn't be able to hear them.
"Eh?" Teng Qingshan's ears twitched as he glanced at the mound in the distance.
As an expert of the Internal Martial Arts who had been training since childhood, Teng Qingshan's six senses were extremely sensitive. He would be able to detect ordinary people before they even got close. When they were in Yi City, the triangular-eyed man had seen Teng Qingshan and his group from afar. However, since there were too many people in Yi City, Teng Qingshan didn't notice him at all.
But this was the wilderness!
The surroundings were silent. Hundreds of people hiding behind the mound in the distance began to prepare to attack. No matter how well they hid, Teng Qingshan still noticed them.
"Father." Teng Qingshan suddenly opened his mouth.
"What's wrong?" Teng Yongfan asked doubtfully.
"Everyone stop." Teng Qingshan frowned. The group of clansmen immediately looked at him. Teng Qingshan lowered his voice and said, "Everyone, do you see that? That mound in front, I have a feeling that … there should be someone hiding behind that mound. Moreover, there are many of them! "
The group of clansmen couldn't help but change their expressions.
Teng Qingshan glanced at the mound and his brain started to think quickly.
In his previous life, those professional agents couldn't even think of getting close to Teng Qingshan without being discovered by Teng Qingshan. Although these bandits were experienced bandits, they weren't as professionally trained as the agents and killers of his previous life. In terms of hiding, they were still far from being good at it. In addition, there were hundreds of people together. It was impossible for them to not make some noise.
"Brother Fan, what should we do?" Many of the surrounding clansmen looked at Teng Yongfan.
Teng Yongfan stared at the mound and said in a low voice, "There's no other way. We have to go back! So let's do it this way. We'll take a detour. We'll go far away from that mound. If their target is us, they won't be able to resist rushing out. Keeping a distance from them will also prevent them from launching a sneak attack. "
"Okay, let's do it this way."
The clansmen had no other way. They could only do this.
Teng Qingshan and his group walked down the road and entered the field. They maintained a distance of at least thirty to forty zhang from the mound. At this distance, even if the arrows could hit, the power would be very weak.
… …
"Motherf * cker!" That ruthless bandit leader saw this scene and his expression changed, "This group of hunters actually found us."
"Boss, what should we do?" That triangular eyed man asked anxiously.
"What else can we do?" The ruthless bandit leader's expression was ferocious. A trace of madness flashed in his eyes, "I have over a hundred people. Why should I be afraid of them? Brothers, listen up! Later, charge with me. If the archers come near, shoot them mercilessly and kill them all. "
Those bandits were all filled with killing intent. Which one of them didn't have a few lives on their hands?
… …
Teng Qingshan intentionally walked on the leftmost side because the mound was on the left.
"Those bandits shouldn't be here to rob us, right?" Teng Qinghu said in a low voice.
"Don't talk nonsense. It doesn't matter if they are here to deal with us or not. Everyone, get ready." Teng Yongfan's expression was solemn. All of the clansmen were highly focused, either holding long spears or longbows. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened. In this world, if you wanted to live well, you had to be ruthless.
Everyone held their breath.
"Kill!" A ruthless roar sounded from behind the mound. A sturdy, dark, and stocky man holding a thick machete took the lead and rushed over. Behind him was a large group of people. This group of people were like a pack of wolves, rushing down from the mound.
"Attack!" Teng Yongfan roared.
"Xiu!" "Xiu!" "Xiu!" … …
The people of Teng Jia Village were the first to shoot arrows. However, they were far away from each other and there were too few people on Teng Jia Village's side. There were only twelve people with bows and arrows. The first wave of arrows only injured the arm of one bandit.
"Brother Fan, there are too many of them. What should we do?" Many clansmen asked anxiously.
"Brother Fan, take the money and rush back first. We will hold them off here." Some clansmen went crazy in the face of death.
… …
The ruthless bandit leader holding the machete saw the hunters begin to panic and couldn't help but laugh proudly. "Shooting from so far away? A group of idiots. Hmph, but their arm strength isn't small. They can shoot from so far away. " At this moment, the ruthless bandit leader was surprised to find a young hunter holding a Damascus Steel Spear rushing over at an extremely fast speed.
His speed was extremely fast!
"Courting death." The ruthless bandit leader sneered. "Archers, shoot!"
They were now within shooting range. Among the hundred bandits, there were more than forty people with bows and arrows. Because Teng Qingshan was the first to rush towards them, naturally, many arrows were shot towards Teng Qingshan.
"Little guy, you have courage, but you are very stupid." The ruthless bandit leader sneered.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Teng Qingshan, who was rushing at an extremely fast speed, suddenly began to dance the Damascus Steel Spear in his hand. It was like a rotating flywheel, and all the arrows that approached him were all swept away. After a wave of arrows, Teng Qingshan's body didn't have a single wound. His gaze was firmly locked on the ruthless bandit leader.
The ruthless bandit leader was startled.
So many arrows, but they actually couldn't injure a single person?
At this moment, the bandits were madly rushing towards the Teng Jia Village hunters. Many more criminals took out their arrows again.
"Little guy, die." Some of the bandits rushed towards Teng Qingshan in a disorderly manner, their faces full of malevolence. The other bandits rushed towards the other members of the Teng Jia Village. Obviously, in their eyes, the thirty adults were the biggest threat.
Facing the bandits' machetes, Teng Qingshan's speed didn't decrease in the slightest.
"Pu!" "Pu!" "Pu!"
The Damascus Steel Spear in his hand was like a venomous snake coming out of its hole. It continuously flashed three times, leaving behind a blurry mirage.
"Ah ~ ~" The three bandits near Teng Qingshan widened their eyes and covered their throats, emitting "Ah, Ah ~ ~" sounds. They desperately wanted to breathe, but the big holes in their throats were bleeding profusely.
The three bandits collapsed with a loud bang.
"Pu!" "Pu!" "Pu!" "Pu!" … …
The shadow of the spear flashed, and the red tassel danced in the air. A few drops of blood floated in the air.
In the blink of an eye, Teng Qingshan had rushed over a distance of five Zhang, and thirteen bandits had fallen. All of them had their throats pierced, without exception.
"What?" The ruthless bandit leader's expression changed greatly. He had misjudged. This youngster was the most terrifying among the group of hunters.
