Chapter 192
Chapter 192
Chen Dongzhi drew out the long knife from his waist and chopped it at a man. With one slash, half of the man's body was split in half. He weighed the knife, which was the one he had just picked up from the ground. It was very handy.
The robbers surrounding him were terrified by what they saw.
Where did this kid come from?
Aren't the third brother and his friends just letting out some fresh air? Why did they let someone like this in?
The leader's eyes were filled with ruthlessness, and he shouted angrily, "Go! Kill them! I'll reward you twenty taels of silver for every one you kill!"
The robbers, who were originally a little depressed, were aroused by the leader's angry shout, and rushed forward one by one as if they were risking their lives.
Twenty taels of silver!
After all, Chen Dongzhi came from the battlefield and killed countless foreign enemies. There was no shortage of blood when his sword fell.
The situation on both sides changed quickly. Master Duan was originally worried that this man was here to help the other side, but he didn't expect this man to be so fierce and kill one person at a time.
Zhong Laosan also rushed forward with the machete he brought with him, while Zhong Laoda helped several injured people to the side to avoid being affected again.
The chaotic scene just now soon calmed down with the participation of Chen Dongzhi and Zhong Laosan.
Except for the guy who had half of his body chopped off by Chen Dongzhi at the beginning, he used some skill to tie up the others, and now they were all tied up with ropes.
Escort Master Duan came over with a laugh, patted Chen Dongzhi's shoulder with his palm as big as a palm leaf fan, and said loudly, "Thank you three so much for what happened today! If it weren't for you, we would have been killed by these thieves this time! May I ask your name, little brother?"
Chen Dongzhi had just been stabbed in the back, and now being slapped by Master Duan made him feel even more painful. He pursed his lips and uttered a few words, "Chen Dongzhi."
Master Duan was a thick-skinned man and didn't notice his little expression at all. He was still laughing and praising his bravery. He immediately took down several of them.
Only Zhong Laosan and Zhong Laoda, who had been with him for some time, noticed his micro-expressions and walked up to him, only to find that he was injured.
"What are the names of these two brothers? I will come to thank you tomorrow after I finish delivering this load of goods!" Escort Master Duan asked Zhong Laosan and the other man again.
Zhong Laosan was still angry that he had no tact and took a photo of his future brother-in-law's injury. He said stiffly, "Let's talk about it later! My brother is injured!"
Escort Master Duan was stunned, then he realized that Chen Dongzhi had sweat on his forehead. He went around to his back and saw a cut on his back, with blood flowing out.
He suddenly felt guilty and took out a bottle of gold medicine from his arms, "Come on, come on, I'm so sorry, I didn't expect you to say you were injured, brother Chen, it's also my fault for being careless and not noticing."
Zhong Laosan's complexion looked a little better. After taking the golden medicine, he thanked him and pulled Chen Dongzhi aside to apply the medicine to him.
Escort Master Duan touched his head and followed him. He admired the young man named Chen Dongzhi very much and wanted to recruit him to the escort agency.
After applying the medicine, Zhong Laosan said a little embarrassedly, "Zhuangshi, thank you for the medicine. Just now... I was too impulsive. Sorry."
"It's okay, it's okay!" Escort Master Duan waved his hand without any concern, then looked at the few people with sharp eyes, "Where are you from? Are you hunters from the nearby village?"
When the three men came over just now, he saw the bows and arrows and other tools they were carrying. At first he thought they were coming from the opposite side and didn't think about anything else. But now he thinks they must have been hunting nearby and were attracted by the sound of their fighting.
A hunter with such great skills, he is really a talented person!
We must invite him to the escort agency, the agency needs such talents!
Escort Master Duan found a place to sit down and chatted with the three of them. When he learned that Chen Dongzhi had just retired from the battlefield, his surprised expression made Zhong Laosan a little alert.
He himself was completely unaware of how excited he was; he was just busy patting his thigh.
Zhong Laosan felt a little uneasy. He quietly approached Chen Dongzhi and said, "Is he trying to sell us out? He's smiling like that. It's scary."
Chen Dongzhi didn't say anything, knowing that he was joking.
At this time, Master Duan had completely forgotten that he was also injured in the back, and he was only thinking about recruiting this talented person into the escort agency.
But at this moment he didn't know how to start the conversation. If he really told him, would he agree?
He rubbed his hands, smiled brightly, and was about to speak when Chen Dongzhi suggested leaving first.
Escort Master Duan suddenly became anxious, "Brother Chen, don't you want to take a rest? Or should I have someone take you back?"
"No need. We still have the prey in the trap over there. We have to hurry back, otherwise it will be ruined." Chen Dongzhi picked up the long knife on the ground. This knife is easy to use. Once he picked it up, it would be his.
"Then, then where is your home, Brother Chen? I can come find you later!" Escort Master Duan had to deliver the goods to Guangning Prefecture, so he could only ask for their address first so that he could find them later.
Chen Dongzhi left a message "Xinghua Village" and the three of them left.
When the other escorts saw that they were about to leave, they all greeted them.
If the three of them hadn't been there, they would have probably been wiped out by that group of thieves.
"Leaving? Brother will treat you guys to a drink next time we have the chance!"
"Thank you so much for what you did today! Let's have a drink together next time we have a chance!"
Chen Dongzhi and others agreed one by one.
When we returned to the original trap, the wild boar was still lying inside.
Since both Chen Dongzhi and Zhong Lao Da were injured to varying degrees, although not seriously, Zhong Lao San insisted not to let them get involved and wanted to do it himself.
In the end, the two of them watched as Zhong Laosan pulled the wild boar out of the trap. His face was red, his neck was thick, and veins were popping out.
After pulling it up, he took a few breaths, then quickly went to cut some bamboos and made a bamboo raft to pull it back.
"Let's go, let's go back!" Zhong Laosan walked in front with a heroic and confident look. Chen Dongzhi and the other man looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
When we returned to the village, a wild boar weighing at least 300 kilograms attracted the attention of the villagers.
"Zhong Laosan, you have caught so many pheasants, can you sell them to me at a lower price?" Wang Laizi looked at the dozen or so drooping pheasants with a greedy look on his face.
This scoundrel!
Even if you want it to be cheaper, you can't say it so openly in front of so many people!
Zhong Laosan glared at him fiercely. Wang Laizi was totally confused and wondered whether he agreed or not.
Among the people present, there were several aunts who had bought things last time. When they heard this, they rolled their eyes and joined in the fun.
"That's right! Zhong family boy, we are from the same village, why can't you give us a cheaper price?"
"Yes, all the wild pheasants on this mountain have been bought up by you guys. My kid wanted to go up and catch one to try, but there's none left. Why don't you give us some at a lower price if you have some extra?"
Now, no matter how dumb Wang Laizi was, he could tell that this group of women were deliberately asking for a lower price.
He said with a dark face, "What are you arguing about? Did they agree to give you a discount?"
The women in the village didn't care about him and didn't give him any face at all.
"Hey! Let me see who is talking so loudly. It turns out to be Wang Laizi, the laziest guy in our village! Did you eat too much today? Why are you talking so loudly? If you have the energy to shout, you might as well go plow your fields a few times!"
Wang Laizi's face turned red with anger. "You gossipy woman! You love to gossip all day long. One day, your mouth will get sores and rot!"
No matter what, Wang Laizi couldn't win the argument with these aunts and sisters-in-law by himself, and in the end he could only run away in shame.
