#9Chapter 9 Snowy days are a good time to kill people
Snowflakes were falling and the wind was freezing.
Suddenly there was a chilling atmosphere in the snow-covered mountain forest.
"Sooner or later we have to take action against the siblings. It's better to do it sooner than later. Anyway, it's extremely normal for someone to die among the wolves, tigers and leopards in the forest. It's a perfect time to kill someone in the snow."
Snowflakes fell on Chen An's expressionless face, and his cold eyes were intimidating.
After listening to Chen An's words, Chen Tai's face was calm and he began to weigh the pros and cons in his heart.
As the eldest brother said, if the eldest sister of the Shen family is sensible, it would be safer to sell herself to a lowly family.
The Chen family is the king and hegemon in Hongshan Village, and it doesn't matter if they kill someone, but the Taiping County government office still has some dignity. The matter of forcing good girls into prostitution is not a big deal or a small matter.
It's better to avoid it if possible.
After comprehensive consideration, Chen Tai's expression turned cold, and he nodded heavily and said: "Third brother, what you said makes sense, it's easy to kill people in the snow!"
Seeing that Chen Tai agreed, Chen An relaxed, smiled a little, and said, "Second brother, go over there. I'll go here and surround him. Don't let him escape."
"good."
The two brothers immediately split up.
In their eyes, Shen Qing in the snow forest has become their prey.
Shen Qing, who was tying up the wild roe deer, frowned slightly and looked towards the forest not far away.
Seeing that he didn't find anything, he put away his gaze and continued to tie up the wild roe deer in his hands and carry them on his shoulders.
At this time, he pulled out all the arrows shot at the wild roe deer.
Since the quiver was used to hold the blood of the roe deer, the arrows contained in it were taken out and inserted into the belt, while the bow was held in the hand.
After roughly identifying the direction, Shen Qing started to rush back and forth.
The two Chen brothers, who were hunting, looked at each other while crawling in the snow.
Really sharp.
I was almost discovered just now.
Chen An made a gesture, and he and Chen Tai followed each other in different directions.
They saw Shen Qing carrying a wild roe deer on his back, walking shallowly and deeply in the snow.
Behind him, there were drops of dirty blood on the wild roe deer, twisting and turning in the snow forest, forming a red line, which was particularly conspicuous.
A moment later, Chen Tai, who was following behind, suddenly felt a little surprised when he saw the direction Shen Qing was walking.
That doesn't seem to be the direction back to the village.
At this time, the trails in the mountains were covered with heavy snow, and the original path could no longer be distinguished.
It seems that Shen Qing doesn't know the way out.
Just what they wanted.
Chen Tai restrained his breath, held a hunting bow, and cautiously pursued him.
Gradually, the woods ahead became denser.
The branches are covered with thick snow.
A cold wind blew up, blowing up tiny snow particles, and the vision became blurry.
When the gust of wind passed, Chen Tai unexpectedly discovered that Shen Qing was no longer in his field of vision.
Chen Tai narrowed his eyes and stared at the red line of roe deer blood on the ground, which extended deep into the forest. He made a gesture with Chen An in the distance and surrounded him from the left and right.
Chen An saw Chen Tai's signal and knew he had to take action, so he couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Once the eldest sister of the Shen family is sold and I have money, my hope of entering a martial arts school will be greater. Then maybe I will have the opportunity to become one of the powerful people in the county."
When he was very excited, he walked for a while and suddenly found that the bright red blood trail in the forest disappeared.
And Shen Qing also lost his trace.
"What's going on?"
Chen An couldn't hold himself back and rushed over, looking around.
Following him, Chen Tai also rushed out.
"Where are the people?"
The two said in unison.
Chen Tai took the lead to calm down and ran along the original blood trail, only to see the wild roe deer hanging high in the tree.
And the bloodstains stopped right here.
Chen An said angrily: "Damn it, that kid is so cunning, he actually escaped."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Shen Qing holding a bow and arrow behind a big tree a dozen steps in front of him, pointing at them from a distance.
The two Chen brothers were startled, with a hint of panic on their faces.
Shen Qing instantly understood that the other party had malicious intentions.
Chen An subconsciously shouted: "Do it!"
call out!
Shen Qing's expression became solemn, and he let go decisively before them.
The bowstring made of deer sinew trembled slightly, and with a low and deep buzz, the arrow was shot out at an astonishing speed.
The arrow roared through the air, leaving a silver trail.
Puff.
The arrow hit Chen An's chest.
Within a dozen steps, the combined force of the elm bow tire and the deer tendon string was enough to pierce Chen An's chest.
Chen An lowered his head and stared at the arrow shot by Shen Qing. The pain and the cold arrow shaft made him feel dizzy.
His eyes widened, and his face showed an expression of disbelief, full of shock and confusion.
Chen An didn't expect Shen Qing to be so decisive and move faster than him.
"Third brother!" Chen Tai looked horrified when he saw this scene.
Chen An fiercely broke the arrow on his chest and shouted: "Second brother, kill him!"
The arrow penetrated the middle of the chest, but this was not where the heart was, so it was not immediately fatal.
Chen An gasped in pain, still conscious, and knew that he still had a glimmer of hope.
However, as soon as he said the words, Shen Qing had already shot another arrow.
Shen Qing's hand speed was extremely fast, and the black arrow shot towards Chen Tai. What was unexpected was that Chen Tai ignored the brotherhood at the critical moment of life and death and used Chen An as a shield.
"Puff."
Chen An paused and looked down, only to see blood dripping from his chest and the arrow shaft trembling.
He covered the wound, but the bright red blood plasma still seeped out from between his fingers, staining his palm red.
In an instant, his face turned pale, his breathing was rapid, and his eyes flashed with shock and pain. He fell headfirst on the snow.
Chen Tai didn't expect that Shen Qing's archery was so good that an arrow hit his heart. If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have fallen just now.
"Damn it!"
Realizing that something was wrong with Shen Qing, Chen Tai didn't care too much. He hid behind a tree as a cover and fought back with a bow.
But the arrow shot in a hurry was not accurate and hit the tree next to Shen Qing.
The snow on the tree fell down.
Seeing that there was no chance, Shen Qing did not stay there, but turned to one side, not intending to let Chen Tai go.
The cold wind blew.
Snow grains mixed with snowflakes fluttered in the forest.
Shen Qing held the longbow tightly, and his figure was like a nimble snow leopard in the forest. He shuttled quickly in the snow forest, and his figure was completely elusive.
Chen Tai shot two arrows in a row, but both missed.
On the contrary, Shen Qing's arrows were very accurate.
Every time Shen Qing's arrows passed by him, he felt a little scared.
Chen Tai couldn't believe that a person who was unknown in the village and almost couldn't even eat had such archery and hunting skills.
He was so experienced.
He suddenly felt like he was the prey in the snow forest.
Being suppressed by such a small person, Chen Tai felt like he was greatly humiliated at this moment.
Shen Qing, who was in the forest, had sharp eyes and noticed the change in Chen Tai's expression. He knew that Chen Tai was at his limit.
He pulled the bow again and aimed at the figure.
Suddenly, a cold arrow shot from Chen Tai's direction. Shen Qing rolled to one side swiftly and narrowly avoided the arrow.
He stood up quickly, his eyes became colder, and he shot an arrow without hesitation, then reached for his waist.
Shen Qing's expression was stunned.
His hand touched nothing. All the arrows he brought had been shot empty!
