Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Under the sun, in the forest, while some people were crying, Cheng Ling stood there and took out five more arrows from her bag, reloading the compound crossbow.

This action was undoubtedly the most powerful threat. The person who was crying so loudly suddenly felt his throat choke up and he couldn’t help but stop crying.

He didn’t dare to run, so he just looked at Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling aimed the arrow at one of the people still hassling with the tall and thin young man.

The people on the other side were fighting madly and didn’t care about the changes on this side.

The wound on the tall and thin young man’s left arm was very deep, and blood stained half of his body. One of his opponents had died, leaving two more. The three of them fought with their lives on the line. Finally, at a certain moment, Cheng Ling’s arrow was fired.

Whoosh!

The light from the arrows reflected the sunlight, almost enough to make people dizzy.

“Ah!”

There was another scream. Bang!

The tall and thin young man’s opponent fell again, and the last one finally woke up from the agitated state of battle and screamed.

He was scared out of his wits, and after subconsciously letting out a cry, he broke into a run.

Cheng Ling aimed the arrow at him again and fired.

Whoosh!

The arrow was like a gust of wind, hitting the man’s right leg. The man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

In the end, a strange laugh that sounded both happy and sad came from the depths of the forest. It turned out to be the lean man who went by the name Big Brother Hong, who had turned around to stop the pursuers at the beginning. He was covered in injuries but had finally defeated both opponents.

He seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time.

Between laughter and tears, the man staggered out of the forest.

His eyes swept over the scene before him. Suddenly, he fell to his knees with a thump.

“The heavens have eyes, the heavens have eyes!” The man burst into tears.

After crying for a while, he suddenly looked in a certain direction. Another person was kneeling in that direction. It was the same man who had knelt down and begged for mercy from the group of people that had fought with Cheng Ling.

The man rushed over, raised his fist, and began to punch the man madly.

As she hit him, she shouted, “You’re all black-hearted, you’re not human, you’re not human!”

“You eat the dead, and you also kill and eat the living! Do you have any humanity left in you?”

“Wuwuwu … My child’s mother, it’s my fault, it’s all my fault! You’ve mistakenly believed me to be with the group of bastards, and they have harmed you…”

As he cried to the point of heartache, his fists became more and more ruthless. The person who was hit only held his head and explained in a hoarse voice, “Don’t blame me, I was forced to…I was forced to do this. If I had not listened to them, they would have eaten me….”

Later on, the crying gradually weakened. The man did not listen to the man’s sophistry and just punched him again and again. After a long time, there was finally a moment when the man was no longer breathing.

Only then did the man suddenly let go of her, and then he was stunned.

Mu, Cheng Dani, and Cheng Erni stood a little further away. The two daughters, one on the left and one on the right, held their mother’s arms tightly. They trembled in fear at the scene.

Mu Sanniang was also terrified, but she suppressed it. She consoled her two daughters in a low voice, “It’s alright, it’s alright. Xiao Ling is right here with us.”

Although she said this, her eyes were still on Cheng Ling, full of worry and heartache.

A wave of heavy footsteps sounded. It was the tall and thin young man. He walked over to the stunned man and bowed deeply to Cheng Ling. “Shi Hong will never forget the hero’s life-saving grace!”

As he spoke, he looked at the man who was standing there in a daze and said, “This is my big brother Hong, Hong Guangyi. He was just devastated and thus was a little rude. Please forgive him. ”

In this situation, what was there to be concerned about?

Cheng Ling didn’t mind this. Her eyes fell on Shi Hong’s arm and she said, “You’re seriously injured. Do you need to apply medicine first?”

Hence, Shi Hong lowered his head and looked at his injured arm. He raised his head again and stammered, “I..”

Before he could finish his sentence, his feet swayed. After all, he was still in a weak state and was seriously injured. With this sway, his entire body fell forward.

Hong Guangyi, who was beside him, finally reacted and quickly rushed over to help him.

“Ah!” Hong Guangyi shouted, but he fell to the ground first.

Fortunately, Shi Hong fell on top of him, and Hong Guangyi acted as a human cushion, so the fall wasn’t too serious.

The heavy and somewhat stagnant atmosphere finally loosened up because of this fall.

Mu Sanniang brought Cheng Dani and Cheng Erni over and carefully helped Shi Hong up. As they helped him up, their eyes were alert. Although they still maintained basic human kindness, they didn’t dare to let their guards down completely.

Cheng Ling walked over to the people on the ground while collecting her crossbow.

Of course, she was also observing Shi Hong and Hong Guangyi from the corner of her eyes. At the same time, she was also keeping an eye on Mu Sanniang and her two sisters.

The wound on Shi Hong’s left arm was extremely deep. Other minor injuries aside, just the wound on his arm was very worrying.

Mu Sanniang tore a narrow strip of cloth from the corner of her skirt and skilfully tied it to both ends of Shi Hong’s wound to stop the bleeding.

“Thank you!” Hong Guangyi said gratefully.

“Do you have any medicine?” Mu asked. I’m afraid that this injury can’t be treated without medicine. ”

Hong Guangyi’s lips moved, but he just stood there dejectedly.

How could there be medicine?

At the end of the day, being alive at this moment was a godsend. As for what would happen in the next moment, who would know?

Cheng Ling took back the arrows she’d released on the other side.

She was in a very heavy mood when she was collecting the arrows.

This was the first time she had killed someone. Needless to say, it troubled her.

It goes without saying that these people weren’t malicious spirits that deserved to meet this fate. They were indeed evil, but Cheng Ling wasn’t.

She grew up in a peaceful era. Even though she had been practicing martial arts since she was young and had a strong will, she had taken someone’s life.

Guo Shu was a killing technique.

This was also the reason why Cheng Ling had been strictly taught martial arts by her master when she was very young.

The intent of taking away someone’s life couldn’t be easily aroused. The more weapons he had, the more cautious and reserved he had to be.

If she hadn’t transmigrated and faced such a situation, Cheng Ling probably would never have let go of her weapon like this.

The process of retrieving the crossbow was also a process of adjusting her conscience.

At the same time, when she touched the crossbow and the corpse on the ground, the energy in her body suddenly surged, and the familiar collection prompt sounded again:

“You’ve harvested the man-eater among the refugees, Mr. Zhang. You’ve obtained 31 copper coins and a map of Zhangjiakou.”
