Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

Chapter 453 Sleepless Night

"You're clearly not asleep yet, why are you being so stubborn, young lady?"

Chen Changfan removed the obstacles on Jiao Niangzi's body while untying his belt.

No matter how tough it is, it can't be as tough as Chen Changfan's.

Chen Changfan was looking forward to it, showing his tough guy spirit, and the delicate lady was quickly defeated.

Shen Cuiyun whimpered, "Sir, please forgive me... This is too embarrassing, don't let anyone hear it..."

"It's okay. I've already set up the Flower-Fruit Mountain Water Curtain Formation. No one will hear you even if you scream at the top of your lungs."

Chen Changfan is talking nonsense.

Anyone who dares to lie against his wall and eavesdrop on his room is really tired of living.

Shen Cuiyun was shaken until she felt dizzy and dazed, but she couldn't help but feel surprised. "Huaguo Mountain... Water Curtain... Formation, where is the cave?"

Chen Changfan said nothing, but just kept asking for it.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

As soon as night fell, fighting broke out in the city. The people were all terrified. They closed their doors and windows early and hid in their homes trembling.

Some people thought that robbers had come to the city, while others were worried that the four major sects would come to rob them.

But surprisingly, the fighting in the city lasted until midnight, and no civilians were disturbed. It was as if those people outside had made an appointment in advance to choose the battle location to avoid the civilians' homes as much as possible.

Even so, the people were still frightened by the sounds of fighting and dared not sleep. They all stared with their eyes wide open, ready for battle, hoping that dawn would come as soon as possible.

……

At the South City Gate, after Chen Changfan and his group left, the guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Brother, Lord Chen told us to go and rest immediately and not to close the city gates. What does this mean?"

The guard who looked like the leader also looked confused and asked impatiently, "How should I know?"

"What should we do? Should we still defend it?"

"Guard! Why not? The people of Qinghe County have been brutally tortured by the four major sects. We soldiers can do nothing but guard the city gates for the people and protect them from the thieves outside."

After hearing what the leading guard said, the other guards all nodded.

Looking at the entire Qinghe County, the government is already in name only. Many soldiers have joined the four major sects and become the running dogs of those sects, bullying the people on a daily basis.

Nowadays, the only remaining military forces in the entire county city are the city guards and these gatekeepers.

However, the city guards were just a bunch of guys who lived a life of idleness and waiting to die. Only the gatekeepers had kept their conscience and knew that some things could be done and some things could not be done.

But after holding out all the way, there are only six of them left guarding the South City Gate. Today they have offended the newly promoted nobleman, Lord Chen. I really don’t know when they will suddenly lose their jobs.

These people were sighing in their hearts when they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from afar. They turned around and saw that it was a team of majestic cavalrymen in full armor. The leader was Zhang Yi from Xiaofeng Village.

It's over. This Lord Chen is indeed not a magnanimous person. He has sent troops to kill me!

The guards were immediately disheartened.

Tatata!

The sound of horse hooves approached. The leading guard mustered up the courage to step forward, bowed, and asked, "Sir, you are leading troops here so late at night, but are you planning to leave the city?"

Zhang Yi glanced at everyone and said simply, "No."

"Then what is your Excellency doing..."

"Close the door and beat the dog."

Hearing this, the guards were dumbfounded again. Why close the door? Why beat the dog?

Isn't this door closed?

"Forgive my ignorance. I don't know what you are saying. We brothers are on official business. Please give us some convenience."

Facing this pair of aggressive cavalrymen, the leading guard withstood the pressure and insisted.

"We are not interfering with your official duties. We are just here to protect your safety. There may be dogs running this way soon. Be careful not to get bitten."

Everyone thought that Zhang Yi would kill the leader out of rage, but who would have thought that he would calmly give the other party a word of advice, then lead the team to disperse on the spot and quickly hide.

"What...what is going on?" The guards were confused. They didn't know what was wrong with Zhang Yi, and they had no idea what the Lord Chen behind him was planning.

"If Lord Chen wants to take our lives, there is no need to go through so much trouble. Just go ahead and take our lives." The leading guard was completely confused and just gave up.

"Who wants to take your life? I will be the first to shoot him!" Zhang Yi's voice came from not far away.

The guards were even more confused.

"Forget it, never mind. We'll just do our job as usual. Let's just stand guard at this post!"

The guards continued to stand guard.

After a while, shouts and screams were heard from the city. It seemed that a riot had occurred, which made the soldiers feel uneasy.

Soon, a group of people fled towards this side. They seemed to be disciples of Langjian Sect.

"Open the door immediately! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword!"

The leading man had blood on his face. He saw the city gate was closed from a distance and shouted loudly.

Seeing that they were people from the four major sects, the guards explained with grim expressions that the other side had warriors who could climb the steps, and there were as many as twenty of them, so it would not take any effort to kill them.

But even so, the guards still drew their swords and shouted, "The city gate is closed. Heroes of Langjianmen, please return."

"You blind bastards, can't you see the clothes I'm wearing? I think you're tired of living!"

As they spoke, those people drew their swords and rushed towards this side.

Seeing this situation, several gatekeepers couldn't help but sweat in their palms. They were just ordinary soldiers and were no match for the warriors who climbed the stairs. But in this situation, there was no way to retreat.

Just as the gatekeepers were about to be killed by the sword, a loud shout was heard, like thunder in the plain:

"Brothers from Xiaofeng Village, follow me and kill the dog together!"

In the darkness, a pair of Ulala soldiers rushed out and knocked down the people from Langjianmen in a few strokes.

Immediately, under the horrified gazes of the gatekeepers, the soldiers of Xiaofeng Manor skillfully cleaned up the battlefield, then quickly hid in the dark, and the surroundings returned to peace.

If it weren't for the lingering smell of blood in the air, they would almost suspect that they were hallucinating.

After a while, another group of deserters from Sect Leader Huo tried to force their way in, but were also dealt with swiftly and efficiently by the soldiers from Xiaofeng Manor.

Now the gatekeepers finally understood that these people were not coming for personal revenge, but to help them guard the city gate.

What Zhang Yi meant by beating the dog was indeed beating a dog that has fallen into the water.

It turned out that something changed suddenly in the city. The leaders of the four major sects who were usually arrogant and domineering fell at the same time. The Modao Sect, Qinghe Martial Arts School, Taixu Pavilion, and Water God Sect were clearing out the remnants of the four major sects and becoming the new four major sects.

"Qinghe County is about to change..."

The gatekeepers murmured.
