Chapter 2, The Four Pests of Xianyang
This remark immediately provoked outrage among the group
One against ten
However, Qi Hu acts without speaking, while Li Guo expresses it directly
His latter half of the sentence was not directed at the tiger cub.
Do not compare me with the three of you; I am from a prestigious family, a descendant of a noble lineage
Haha
Chen Hengzhi, this time do not play tricks! shouted the bearded man loudly
Bang
Remarkable archery! The tiger cub gave a thumbs up to Chen Xiang's back.
Ah ah ah
The sound of the bowstring hums
The sword came down heavily, striking the rear of Chen Xiang's horse.
The one holding the shield is called Qi Hu, the archer is named Li Guo, and the one wielding dual halberds like a madman is called Yu Long. Chen Xiang's voice echoed beside Hu Ru'er.
Hmm?
Then he raised his shield, using it to protect his body, let out a roar, and charged towards the Mangshan bandits
This person is even more skilled in archery than Chen Xiang, shooting arrows almost consecutively. In the blink of an eye, three individuals have already fallen under his arrows
"How dare anyone obstruct us, the Four Evils of Xianyang? They truly do not know the meaning of life and death," said the wielder of the dual halberds
In an instant, Chen Shang eliminated the enemy thoroughly, killing four and injuring many more
The tiger cub's gaze swept over the three individuals, then looked behind them, and there were only the three of them.
Especially Qi Hu, who exchanged glances with him and let out a chuckle
So when is it considered that the time has come
"Since you know that Wen Shu will not let me go, you must be prepared for it." Hu Ruer raised her face and smiled brightly at Chen Xiang.
The tiger cub raised its sword, yet did not face the approaching enemies
He glanced at the tiger cub and shook his head: "You really are not charming at all... Well, hey, are you all really prepared to watch me fight this group of rabble alone?"
They all noticed that Tiger Milk Child was unprotected, but they had just seen Tiger Milk Child plotting against Chen Xiang, so they intentionally wanted to teach this young man a lesson
Even as the horse gallops forward, his hand remains steady
After a few blinks, Chen Shang had already surged into the heart of the Mangshan bandits' territory, and before him stood the only horseman among the Mangshan bandits
After Chen Shang finished speaking, he squeezed the horse's belly, and with a long neigh, he charged into the midst of the bandits in Mangshan.
Begone! With the long sword in hand, Chen Shang shouted once more.
The tiger cub raised its head to look at him: "Why don't you go yourself instead of asking a friend for help?"
Because the time has not yet come
Although it was a solitary walk, the tiger cub seemed to perceive the momentum of a thousand troops from him
His movements are highly rhythmic, and the tiger cub feels as if what it is observing is not the actions of a human, but rather the drifting and swirling of white clouds in the sky and the flowing and swirling of water in the stream
Let me go, let me go, otherwise, I will kill him
What are the Four Pests of Xianyang? They are merely the rascals of Xianyang City, yet they dare to be so audacious here. Just watch me... we will take your life!
The sound of footsteps approached with a thundering pace
The bandits of Mangshan were defeated and fled, while Yu Long, wielding dual halberds, was originally the fiercest in battle. However, at this moment, he held back, surveying his surroundings with pride, resembling a lion surveying its territory.
I have an idea," he said to Chen Xiang, raising his head.
The first person is tall and robust, holding a spear in each hand. The second person wields a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, with a thick beard that makes him appear quite old. The third person carries a bow in his hand and has four quivers slung over his back.
Chen Shang lay on the horse's back when the horse suddenly reared up. With a long neigh, its two iron hooves kicked a person approaching from the front into the air
The tiger cub saw the shield-bearer's blade strike like a venomous snake, suddenly darting out from behind the shield, piercing this man's chest, and then swiftly retracting
The leader of the Mangshan bandits? Hu Ru'er immediately understood Chen Xiang's meaning
Oh? The enemies, upon witnessing this scene, were all left with expressions of bewilderment.
However, in this way, it is more beneficial than any flattery.
Chen Shang lifted the leader's head and shouted loudly, causing those still attempting to surround him, the Mangshan bandits, to feel disheartened at this sight, and then they scattered in a panic.
The bandit from Mangshan had terror written all over his face, yet he shouted at the four people, using the infant as a hostage.
"What are your thoughts?" Chen Xiang casually asked as he nocked an arrow onto the bowstring.
The bandits of Mangshan roam freely in the Mangshan region of the capital, and they are not without their share of bloodshed.
But when he turned around, he saw a bandit from Mangshan holding a knife to the neck of the tiger cub
Chen Shang was screaming loudly, charged towards the enemy with the startled horse.
How? Chen Xiang raised his chin towards Hu Ru'er
Chen Shang, who was originally filled with rage, was rendered helpless by his words
Then he felt a chill in his heart, and all the strength in his body vanished along with the pain
I really killed him, I really killed him! That reckless mountain bandit is ultimately a desperate man. Seeing that Chen Xiang had no intention of letting him go, the knife was already pressed against the throat of Hu Ru'er.
After the long roar sounded, the tiger cub quickly searched for the source of the voice, which was the dual halberd wielder shouting madly. Just when he was not paying attention, the dual halberd wielder unexpectedly charged into the midst of the Mangshan bandits, and the dual halberds stirred up a storm of blood and flesh among the bandit crowd
The hook shield is not a weapon that can be possessed by civilians; it is military equipment
Archer Li Guo nocked an arrow on the string, squinting at the battlefield, yet did not release it.
The fourth person was knocked down by the shield bearer, then fell to the ground with a scream
Chen Shang could not hear the praises of Hu Ru'er; he was busy nocking an arrow. The sound of the bowstring resonated, and then one person was struck by an arrow. Even if it did not hit a vital spot, it was enough to temporarily incapacitate him
One of the enemies charging at them with a drawn blade was struck in the chest by an arrow, his body stiffened as if he had become a wooden figure, and then he fell down
These few individuals are truly valiant, which leaves him in awe
"If you kill this brat, it will be of no concern to me, Chen is not one to be threatened." Chen Shang pointed his sword at the reckless mountain bandit.
Even a valiant warrior like Chen Xiang can instill fear in them, allowing Chen Xiang to calmly turn his horse's head and return to the side of the tiger's cub.
Rodents
Attempting to obstruct his marauders from Mangshan, before they could approach him, they fell to the ground after being struck by arrows; it was the one carrying the four-arrow quiver who had acted.
Ah... Chen Xiang glanced at his companion
The bandits of Mangshan shouted loudly, urging their companions to advance, while they themselves shrank back
This turn of the body signifies life and death
The Tiger Infant was somewhat surprised; the Mangshan bandits numbered around thirty to forty, while the reinforcements summoned by Chen Shang amounted to only three. Including Chen Shang himself, there were merely four individuals in total
I have not settled the score with you yet. Did you intend to harm me by doing that just now?" Chen Xiang did not agree to Hu Ruer's request
His horse neighed long and loud, breaking through the enemy like the wind. Wherever it went, all that could be seen was the glint of swords crisscrossing, and those who stood in the way all fell.
"Damn it, why bother talking to them? Charge! Charge!"
How dare that kid do this! he thought to himself
Chen Shang laughed heartily, extending his arm to entangle the arm of a person wielding a sword who was aiming for the horse's belly. He then twisted, and that arm instantly emitted a cracking sound, contorting into a twisted shape, while the sword slipped from the person's grasp and fell into Chen Shang's hand
Do you look down on the heroes and brave men of Mangshan
Qi Hu raised his shield to meet Li Guo, while only Chen Shang, after dispersing the bandits, continued to pursue and slay, consecutively toppling several individuals.
Haha, Chen Xiang, it seems I just saw you being outsmarted by that little brat over there, you have completely lost the face of our Xianyang Four Evils! However, the man with the thick beard's attention was focused on the Tiger Milk Child.
He saw the seemingly fierce leader, whose eyes were filled with disbelief, and did not dare to engage in battle with Chen Xiang, but instead turned and retreated
The eyes of the tiger cub became eager
Whoosh
Enough of the nonsense, let us finish off these vermin quickly, and I will invite you all to drink in Xianyang City!
It is now calculated
The shield bearer strikes first, followed by the archer who arrives later, yet it is the one wielding the dual tridents who inflicts the heaviest toll
He handed his sword to Hu Ru'er, and in his hand, he only held a bow that was no longer of use. Facing him were more than ten blades and swords, and even hooked shields.
The tiger cub opened its eyes wide, watching the events unfolding before it
The first achievement soared high, and the blood in the throat surged up to the heavens, reaching a height of at least one zhang.
Chen Shang was completely bewildered, but as the foremost swordsman of Xianyang, he quickly regained his composure and raised the bow in his hand
Chen Shang was taken aback; he did not expect Hu Ru'er to say such words
I do not want to be called Zhao Hu, I want to be called Zhao He, with the character "He" meaning harmony!" said the child with a smile.
"A child should learn a lesson." Li Guo said coldly, uttering six words
The Tiger Milk Child discovered that although there were many bandits in Mangshan, they were now being besieged and attacked. Some were blocking Qi Hu, some were surrounding Yu Long, and others were on guard against Li Guo, as if from all directions there were enemies that required their vigilance. This created gaps in the formation of the Mangshan bandits, and Chen Shang had precisely infiltrated one of these gaps
After three shots, Chen Xiang had already charged into the midst of the enemy battalion
The tiger cub squinted slightly and saw three people walking out from the mountains and forests on both sides of the road
The eyes of the tiger cub sparkled with light: "Can I learn this from you?"
