Chapter 54 -54 Timely Intervention
The two men pounced on the two youths, and the man who had grabbed Xiao Shan no longer felt the pressure and ran even faster.
Just as he was about to run out of the youths’ sight, a vine appeared out of nowhere.
The man did not see it clearly and was tripped solidly by the vine, falling flat on his face, while Xiao Shan rolled out of his control.
Qiu Er and Qiu San were entangled in a struggle with others, but when they saw their young nephew escape, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before they could celebrate, they saw the man who had fallen suddenly pull out a sharpened stone spike from his waist, and he was just about to use it to smash down on Xiao Shan.
It was obvious he thought Xiao Shan was too much trouble and planned to kill him first before taking him away.
Qiu Er and Qiu San could not tolerate such an act; their eyes nearly splitting with fury, they wanted to rush over, but people on top of them also pulled out similar stone spikes from their waists, smashing one onto Qiu Er’s face, and he was caught off guard and reeled from the pain.
Qiu San narrowly avoided the blow, but the second and third strikes, each potentially lethal, came too fast for him to do anything but dodge. He had no time to worry about Xiao Shan.
Just as Qiu Er and Qiu San were anxiously losing their patience, the sound of arrow feathers cutting through the air suddenly rang out.
When Qiu Er and Qiu San focused their gaze, the men who had been on top of them suddenly stopped moving.
There was an arrow feather protruding from their chests, with blood even forming droplets that fell onto Qiu Er and Qiu San’s cheeks.
The two men seemed surprised at how they had been hit by an arrow; they looked down blankly at the arrow in their chests and lost the ability to move amidst their shock, convulsing for a while before going still.
It was then that Qiu Er and Qiu San realized what had happened; they pushed the refugees off them and turned to find their young nephew.
However, the man who had been controlling their nephew had an arrow feather stuck in his back and was slowly falling to the ground, while Xiao Shan looked at him with a shocked face, clearly frightened silly.
Qiu Er and Qiu San turned their heads in unison and saw a young girl just lowering her bow and arrows from where they had stood before.
She had shot these three arrow feathers!
And had accurately pierced through the hearts of those men!
At this point, Bai Sasa and Bai Lingyu had finally reached Xiao Shan’s side. The two children, not at all concerned with the people lying in a pool of blood, looked anxiously at Xiao Shan.
“Are you okay?”
“Come on, get up.”
Xiao Shan looked at them blankly, and it took a while before tears came streaming from his eyes, and he burst into loud sobs.
Old Uncle Qiu, who had rushed over upon hearing the disturbance, was also taken aback by the changes.
Madam Liu hugged her son tightly, while Old Uncle Qiu helped his two sons up from the ground.
Compared to the family’s tender inquiries, Bai Junjun stood somewhat aloof.
After making sure that there were no further disturbances around, she stepped forward and pulled the arrow feathers from the bodies of the dead.
She only had five arrow feathers; not one could be wasted.
Bai Junjun glanced at the stone spikes scattered on the ground, silently picked them up, and felt their weight; they were quite heavy.
Although somewhat less effective than a knife, they still made handy weapons in close combat.
She had Bai Sasa collect the remaining two stone spikes as well, and Bai Sasa did not hesitate to store them together with her bows and arrows.
Only then did the Qiu family have the chance to look around. Gazing at the three men lying on the ground, their expressions were complex.
They were emaciated, with hollow cheeks, clearly destitute refugees, and the Qiu family had not expected an ambush from them here.
Seeing Old Uncle Qiu and the others’ faces showing pity, Bai Junjun finally said, “These people are desperados; if I had been a bit slower, it would be us who were dead.”
