Hualala!
Two of the burly men behind the young man immediately stood in front of the young man.
The remaining people also drew their bows and nocked their arrows, aiming at Qin Feng.
The village chief quickly ran to the middle and explained anxiously,
"Qin Feng, Little Huzi saw someone riding a horse into the village, so he called them bandits. Your Grandma Zhou thought that bandits really came, so she hit the gong."
The village chief pointed to the side. A five or six-year-old child's pants had been taken off by his father and his buttocks had been spanked.
An old woman with white hair stood awkwardly at the side with a gong in her hand.
Fortunately, it was a false alarm.
" Young Master!" Qin Feng put away his crossbow and hung it on his waist. Then, he bowed to the green-robed young man." Greetings, Young Master!"
When he saw the bailiff beside the young man, Qin Feng immediately guessed his identity.
He still couldn't dodge.
However, from the looks of it, this Marquis didn't seem to be a pervert. He was considered polite.
The young man waved his hand, and the burly men immediately dispersed.
He pointed at the crossbow in Qin Feng's hand and smiled." I've always heard that bandits enter the village. The villagers are so scared that they kneel on the ground. This is the first time I've seen someone who dares to resist."
Qin Feng turned his head to take a look. As expected, the villagers were all empty-handed. Only he and Man Cang were carrying crossbows.
However, Qin Feng did not look down on these villagers because he had seen with his own eyes that the men had run back from the brick kiln with weapons in their hands. At this moment, they must be hiding in the grass beside them.
This was the tradition of the village, and it was also a method of survival that the villagers had paid the price of countless blood.
If the bandits were only asking for money and food, and it was not too much, they would tolerate it.
Because the bandits had the advantage in numbers, most of the young and strong people in the village joined the army. The remaining people were indeed unable to defeat the bandits.
No matter how important money and food were, it was not as important as the lives of a family.
However, once the bandits killed the innocent, they would definitely fight back.
The bandits also knew this, so they did not dare to force them too much when they came to collect the annual grain every year.
Both sides tacitly maintained a wonderful balance.
It was very rare to see a situation like Qin Feng charging out openly with a bow.
"Young Master might not know this, but the bandits usually come to collect the annual grain after the autumn harvest. When they arrive at the end of spring, it's very likely that the bandits have changed.
I'm a hero who fights tigers. The tougher I act, the more afraid the bandits will be, and they might stop trying to establish their dominance."
Qin Feng's brain worked very quickly. After realizing that he had mistaken the person for someone else, he immediately found an excuse.
" Aren't you afraid that the bandits will be angered and kill you?"
"If that's the case, I'd rather die in battle than be captured and slaughtered by others!"
Qin Feng puffed out his chest and said proudly," I'm a scholar. I'd rather die standing than live kneeling. Besides, I'm not a pushover. Killing one is worth it. Killing two is worth one!"
Life was like a play, it all depended on acting skills.
No matter how much Qin Feng had struggled in his heart before he rushed over, at least the momentum he displayed was indeed tragic.
After seeing the guards 'reactions and the cut marks on their armor, Qin Feng was sure that the young man in front of him was not as simple as an ordinary young master. He was most likely from the military.
Who did such a person admire the most? Wasn't he just a brave warrior who faced death unflinchingly?
As expected, when they heard Qin Feng's words, the young man and the warriors behind him cheered in unison!
"Well said, this is what a Great Kang warrior should look like!"
The young man jumped off his horse." Constable Zhang said that you are skilled in both literature and martial arts. It seems that you are indeed so. You are indeed a brave warrior who can kill a fierce tiger alone!"
Just as Qin Feng was about to speak, he saw Guan Hanyan rushing out of the alley with Tang Dongdong and the others.
Each of them was holding the same crossbow as Qin Feng.
Even Little E was the same.
"Brother-in-law, we're here to help you fight the bandits!"
Little Er shouted from afar.
Hualala!
The armored guards became nervous and surrounded the young man.
" Hanyan, there's a mistake. They're not bandits. Put down the arrows."
Qin Feng finally understood the village chief's feelings just now and quickly stood in the middle of the road.
He saw that the crossbows in the women's hands were all loaded. If anyone pulled the trigger in excitement, it would be a big deal.
Qin Feng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead when he saw the girls put away their crossbows." I'm sorry, Young Master. My wife is anxious to protect her husband. I hope Young Master won't blame her."
Feudal society had a strict system and was particular about hierarchy.
A commoner pointing an arrow at a noble was enough to kill him.
He had just come here once, and it was not easy for him to turn over a new leaf. Who knew that the girls at home would come again…
If the young man flew into a rage out of humiliation, he would be finished.
This guy was even more terrifying than a bandit.
"Hahaha! I'm fine."
Not only was the young man not angry, but he even laughed happily." People say that people are divided into groups. It is indeed true. You are a hero who has defeated the tiger. The women and children in your family are also extraordinary!"
"Young Master, you flatter me."
"Young Master, why have you come to the wilderness?" Qin Feng asked in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"I heard that there was a warrior here who killed a fierce tiger alone. I yearned for it."
"I hope you won't blame me for my sudden visit," said the young man.
Regardless of whether it was a sincere courtesy or a show, Qing Huai's appearance was impeccable.
The dignified Marquis had personally come to find him. Qin Feng knew that he could not escape today no matter what. He generously made an inviting gesture:
"I wonder if I have the honor to invite Young Master to my humble abode?"
"Sorry for disturbing you."
Qing Huai nodded and followed Qin Feng into the village.
The villagers wanted to follow them to watch the show, but they were chased away by the village chief.
On the way, Qing Huai saw that Little Er was still holding a crossbow and couldn't help but find it funny."
"Little girl, do you know how to use a bow and arrow?"
"Of course!"
Guan Xiao'e raised her head proudly.
"Do you see that bird nest on the tree? If you can shoot it, it's yours."
Qing Huai smiled and took out a jade pendant from his waist.
The jade pendant was white and smooth. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.
"I don't want stones. I want delicious food."
Little Er glanced at the jade pendant and shook her head.
She was so childish that she had never seen jade before. She did not know that this small jade pendant was enough for her to eat for half her life.
"No problem."
Qing Huai waved his hand, and the guard behind him immediately took out a lamb leg from the pouch of his horse.
The leg of lamb was smoked and shiny, looking very delicious.
"Don't go back on your word."
Lil 'Er swallowed her saliva and raised the crossbow in her hand.
The bird's nest was on a treetop more than ten meters away. With Little E's archery skills, the probability of hitting it was only about 50%.
But now, perhaps due to the stimulation of the lamb leg, it actually succeeded in an instant.
The arrow passed through the bird's nest and flew up for nearly a hundred meters before it began to fall.
" Young lady," Qing Huai said." Can you show me the crossbow in your hand?"
