This sounds truly unbelievable.
The four men were well-prepared and confidently left the logging camp.
Song Xiaozhu said goodbye to Mu Qing, Mu Qing nodded slightly and said nothing more.
It takes a proper walk to get from the logging camp to Liu Family Village.
At this time, Tian Man and Luo Liuzi proved to be of great use. They were extremely familiar with the forest farm and deliberately chose open routes to avoid being ambushed and caught off guard.
Ever since Song Xiaozhu learned that Old Madam Hu, this "Digger," was skilled at setting traps, she was very wary of her. She carefully discussed with everyone and arranged a walking formation so that if someone triggered a trap, the others could help rescue them.
Tian Man, who was walking at the very front, even took a wooden stick and knocked on the ground as he walked, just like he was clearing mines.
Their caution and vigilance made it difficult for Cui Jiao, who was lying in ambush, to make his move.
The man behind Cui Jiao asked, "Master Cui, they actually have bows and arrows."
Cui Jiao scoffed, "They just asked Mu Qing for it, but bows and arrows aren't like axes; you can't just use them well once you get them."
"But the district chief ordered that we must capture him alive, and we'll have to get close..."
One reckless man declared, "I could cut ten of those wooden bows and arrows in one stroke!"
"Master Cui, shall we go in?"
Honestly, they weren't afraid of anything. They knew Tian Man and Luo Liuzi's situation perfectly well and could easily subdue them. As for that thin, Xiaoxiao girl, they could crush her with a single finger.
Du Qiu Shuyu... she's a formidable fighter, but she can't fight off four opponents with one punch. If they all work together, they can definitely subdue her.
Once Cui Jiao and the others had gone far enough, far enough that they could no longer see the logging site, he ordered, "Go!"
Seven men, wielding sharpened steel knives, pounced on Song Xiaozhu and the others like hungry wolves.
Even though Song Xiaozhu was prepared, her heart couldn't help but pound wildly at this moment.
People who grew up in peaceful times have never seen anything like this. Let alone a team fighting each other, Song Xiaozhu has never even personally experienced an argument in her entire life.
Qiu Shuyu reacted the fastest, stepping forward to block Song Xiaozhu completely. Tian Man and Luo Liuzi also drew their bows and nocked arrows, striking very convincing poses.
Three whooshing sounds!
The arrows were faster than Cui Jiao and the others had imagined; all three of them actually knew how to use a bow.
Cui Jiao reacted extremely quickly, deflecting the oncoming stone arrow with his slash. The person to his left reacted a little slower, and just as the stone arrow was about to hit his chest, Cui Jiao swung his slash back, deflecting it into the arrowhead.
Bang bang bang!
To their surprise, the three consecutive sounds revealed that the stone arrows were exceptionally fragile; they shattered into dust upon contact with the blade of the steel knife.
Cui Jiao and the others were stunned for a moment, then the tall, burly man burst out laughing, "That's it? That's... Oh my god!"
The ricocheting of the stone arrows only caused them minor scratches, but for some reason, a piercing pain struck, making them want to roll on the ground in agony.
"Poison... it's poisonous..."
"It hurts, it hurts so much! What... what kind of deadly poison is this?!"
Cui Jiao was not injured, so he did not feel the power of the "hemostatic powder". After he learned that the arrow was poisoned, he realized that things were not simple.
Without hesitation, he raised his steel knife and slashed at Tian Man and the others!
Tian Man and Luo Liuzi fired arrows rapidly, but Cui Jiao, as expected of the community's best fighter, easily dodged them all, not even getting hit by the splatter.
Qiu Shuyu frowned and drew her bow, nocking an arrow.
Song Xiaozhu said, "I'll do it."
Qiu Shuyu was certain she could hit Cui Jiao, but Cui Jiao's reaction speed was extremely fast. He wielded his steel knife with impenetrable skill, and even if the stone arrow was aimed at his vital points, he could deflect it.
Song Xiaozhu also wanted to see what the effect of the Quantum Arrow's "precise hit" was.
She drew the bow with all her might and released the Quantum Arrow, which looked ordinary and seemed no different from a regular iron arrow.
Drawing a bow and shooting an arrow is not as simple as it sounds.
Even though Song Xiaozhu spent a lot of time asking Qiu Shuyu for advice along the way, it was all just for show; she relied entirely on brute force to draw the bow.
Fortunately, all that work over the past few days wasn't for nothing; she's built up some arm strength.
With a whoosh.
The Quantum Arrow shot out crookedly.
Qiu Shuyu's heart skipped a beat; with her keen eyesight, she naturally recognized the arrow...
The next instant, Cui Jiao in the right arm by an arrow and lay motionless.
Song Xiaozhu aimed directly at his right arm. Although the arrow was slightly off-target and Cui Jiao was constantly moving, it still hit the target precisely!
That's impressive.
After a moment of reflection, Song Xiaozhu immediately said, "Shoot the stone arrow at him!"
Qiu Shuyu, Tian Man, and Luo Liuzi immediately drew their bows, and several stone arrows shot straight towards Cui Jiao.
Cui Jiao couldn't move at all; he felt as if he were frozen to the ground, and could only watch as several stone arrows hurtled towards him.
It's over...
He's going to die here...
However, in the next instant, the stone arrow exploded, turning into countless fragments that pierced his skin.
Immediately afterwards, it felt like some powder had seeped into the wound, followed by unimaginable, excruciating pain...
Every nerve is screaming... Every inch of skin is trembling...
An indescribable, excruciating pain struck.
Cui Jiao tried to hold back, but finally burst into tears and wailed.
Song Xiaozhu didn't use the Quantum Arrow again, but watched as Qiu Shuyu and the other two missed their stone arrows.
Seeing the six burly men curled up on the ground, weeping bitterly, Song Xiaozhu said, "Let's go to Liu Family Village."
Tian Man and Luo Liuzi felt a tingling sensation on their scalps from the sheer pleasure.
They never expected that Old Madam Hu's strongest subordinate would be so easily defeated!
The combination of Splash Stone Arrow and hemostatic powder is simply brilliant.
It causes unbearable pain, yet leaves no visible scars.
The small wound from the splatter showed signs of healing almost immediately after being treated with styptic powder.
The excruciating pain alone was enough to make one weep uncontrollably, wishing they could die on the spot.
