Chapter 637: Saving Someone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sudden death of the general caused all the Chen Nation soldiers present to fall into a panic.

They subconsciously retreated, then hurriedly drew their sabers and prepared to counterattack.

However, without anyone to command them, these people were like to be in a state of disunity. They did not know which direction to attack, so they simply surrounded Xiao Juan.

Meng Xizhou and Lo Pingsha protected Xiao Juan from both sides and helped him share the firepower.

Li Deyi and Xia Haisheng also wanted to rush up, but Yu Niaoniao stopped them.

Yu Niaoniao whispered, “Follow me!”

The three of them took advantage of the chaos to retreat and find a high place as quickly as possible.

They hid behind cover and shot at the Chen Nation soldiers.

Every time they hit someone, they would immediately move elsewhere to continue shooting.

The Chen Nation soldiers kept being shot by the arrows and fell screaming.

There were also archers among the Chen Nation soldiers. They wanted to draw their bows and shoot back, but the positions of Yu Niaoniao and the other two kept changing. They could not find the two of them at all. Every arrow they shot missed.

Li Deyi saw through Yu Niaoniao’s intentions. Relying on his familiarity with the Li family village, he took the initiative to take on the task of finding suitable positions.

The three of them cooperated well. But soon the problem came…

They were almost out of arrows. Li Deyi was anxious. “What should I do? I’m out of arrows.”

Xia Haisheng said, “Me too!”

Yu Niaoniao only had one last arrow left.

Although they had already killed nearly twenty Chen Nation soldiers and Xiao Juan, Lo Pingsha, and Meng Xizhou had also dealt with a portion of them, there were still more than forty people left.

Yu Niaoniao noticed the firewood piled in the corner beside her and suddenly had an idea.

She led the way into a neighboring house, followed by Li Deyi and Xia Haisheng.

The house was in a mess. Two corpses lay on the ground. An old man and a child were tied up in the corner.

When the old man saw that someone had barged in, he thought that the Chen Nation soldiers had returned. He was both hateful and afraid, and his body could not help but tremble. The child cried until his voice was hoarse and kept calling his parents.

When Li Deyi saw that it was them, he hurriedly said, ‘Village Chief, it’s me!” The old man heard a familiar voice and looked over. Only then did he realize that it was an acquaintance.

“Deyi, why is it you? Why are you dressed like this?”

There was no time for small talk now. Yu Niaoniao interrupted and asked, “Is there lamp oil?”

The old village chief was a little dumbfounded by her question. He did not know what was going on with this girl in the Chen Nation’s soldier’s clothes.

Li Deyi cut the ropes on them with his scimitar and urged them.

“Village Chief, tell me quickly! They’re all good people who came to save our village. They’ve already killed half of the Chen Nation’s soldiers outside.”

Knowing that they had killed many Chen Nation soldiers, the old village chief immediately crawled to the bed and stuck half of his body under it. He straightened his arm and pulled out a pot.

“Here you go. All our lamp oil is here.”

Yu Niaoniao casually pulled a shirt off the ground, tore it into strips, wrapped it around the arrowhead, and inserted it into the pottery jar. When she pulled it out again, the arrowhead was wrapped in lamp oil.

She picked up the pot and threw it to Xia Haisheng.

“I have a mission for the two of you. It might be more dangerous.”

Xia Haisheng and Li Deyi hurriedly said, “Tell us, we’ll definitely do as you say!” After explaining, Yu Niaoniao turned to look at the old village chief and said.

“Pack up some dry food and water, then think of a way to inform the others in the village to meet up at the village entrance. You can’t live here anymore. You have to leave.”

The old village chief quickly asked, “Where can we go?”

Now that Liaodong County was filled with people from the Chen Nation, the entire Liaodong County was no longer safe.

Yu Niaoniao thought for a moment and quickly said, “How about this? You guys go into the mountains and hide for a while. When we get rid of these Chen Nation people, we’ll look for you. At that time, come with us.”

The old village chief hurriedly replied, “Alright, I understand.”

Li Deyi could not help but say, “Village Chief, please help me find my family. If they’re still alive, please bring them out of the village.”

“Don’t worry, I will.”

After leaving, Yu Niaoniao, Xia Haisheng, and Li Deyi split up.

Xiao Juan, Meng Xizhou, and Lo Pingsha were still fighting the Chen Nation soldiers.

The Chen Nation soldiers surrounded the three of them with their numbers. At this moment, they could not care less about moves and cooperation. They only waved their weapons at the three of them.

The three of them were more or less injured.

As they dealt with the enemy, they searched for a chance to escape.

At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of wheels crushing the ground, right on the heels of Xia Haisheng’s roar— “Come this way!”

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xia Haisheng rushing over with a handcart.

There was a mountain of firewood on the handcart.

Xia Haisheng ran for a distance before suddenly letting go. Under the influence of inertia, the handcart rushed straight at the Chen Nation soldiers!

The Chen Nation soldiers were so frightened that they dodged to the sides.

Xiao Juan, Meng Xizhou, and Lo Pingsha seized the opportunity to break out of the encirclement.

How could the Chen Nation soldiers let the three of them off? They immediately wanted to chase after them.

Li Deyi, who was hiding on the roof, raised his pottery jar and smashed it at the Chen Nation soldiers with hatred.

“Go to hell!!”

The pot exploded in the crowd, and lamp oil splattered with broken porcelain. Many Chen Nation soldiers were stained with lamp oil.

Right on the heels of that, Yu Niaoniao, who had already pulled the bowstring, suddenly loosened her fingers. The bowstring suddenly flicked, and the last arrow was shot out!

The arrowhead of this arrow burned with flames and drew a long golden-red arc in the air. In the end, it hit a Chen Nation soldier squarely.

This person was covered in lamp oil. As soon as he was shot, the flames soared.

He wailed in pain and ran wildly, wanting to call for help from his companions around him.

As a result, the other Chen soldiers whose clothes were stained with lamp oil were also burned.

The sparks landed on the ground and immediately spread along the lamp oil. Even the firewood on the handcart was burned.

The fire grew stronger, and the surrounding houses were unfortunately implicated.

Fortunately, the surviving villagers had been moved away in advance.

The Chen Nation soldiers could no longer care less about chasing after Xiao Juan and the others. They all fled crazily.

Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao successfully met.

The six of them did not leave just like that. They first picked up the arrows and weapons that could still be used on the ground before taking away all the horses of the Chen Nation’s soldiers.

After completing the aftermath, they left the village.

Almost as soon as they appeared, the old village chief emerged from the forest with a large group of villagers.

Li Deyi found his parents and daughter among them at a glance.

He asked hurriedly, “Where’s the child’s mother?”

Father Li choked and said, “Your wife didn’t want to be bullied by the Chen

Nation, so she knocked her head against the wall and died.”

Li Deyi stood rooted to the ground as if he had been struck by lightning. After a while, he suddenly cried.

“Mother of the children, I’ve let you down!”𝘣𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮
