come to the heavens

Chapter 178
"Look back and dig!"

The downward-pointing big ax defied the inertia of physics and slashed back, splitting the head of the unprepared Huangfeng village master in half, and he fell to the ground and died without even groaning.

At this time, the other bandits in Huangfengzhai reacted from their two-handed duel. Forty or fifty people were silent for a while, and one of the one-eyed bandits blinked, and suddenly raised his knife and shouted:

"He killed the village master, and the brothers killed him to avenge the village master!"

Immediately, nearly half of the bandits responded by raising their knives, while Ye Chen laughed and rushed forward with his axe.

Half an hour later, Ye Chen was covered in blood and sat on the throne that belonged to the owner of Huangfengzhai. Underneath were more than thirty bandits who were still in good health, squatting on the ground obediently, and lying in the yard outside the door. There are more than two dozen broken corpses, either with severed hands or feet, or directly cut in half.

With the corpses in this place as an example, and with the death of the village owner, the remaining bandits surrendered honestly, and this is what happened now.

Recruiting bandits is very simple, as long as their fists are big, and he doesn't expect them to be loyal, as long as they are obedient, Ye Chen is hesitating now whether to return to Heifengzhai.

Now that the owner of Huangfengzhai is dead, everyone has surrendered, and he is in charge of this village. It seems that being a chicken head is much better than a phoenix tail, but what he dislikes is that Huangfengzhai is too small, and there are not many people in it, so he was killed It is less than one-third. Now there are 34 people including myself, including several old women who cook and wash clothes. The cottage is also extremely simple. Together, the gate of the village is a wooden fence built of wood, and two sentry towers, one of which was cut down by him.

To be honest, he doesn't like such a shabby cottage, but considering his current state, it seems good to have an independent place to stay. Anyway, he won't be able to stay for long, and he will leave the mountain to fulfill his last wish when he is successful in cultivation. up.

After thinking about it for the third time, Ye Chen decided to change his previous thinking, instead of going back to Heifengzhai, he just became a villager in Huangfengzhai.

In the green forest, it is commonplace for a cottage to change owners. He announced the news very flatly. Come up to show loyalty and flatter, Ye Chen accepted the flattery with pleasure.

Dispersing his subordinates to clean up the dead bodies on the ground and repairing the broken gate of the village, he came to the place where the original owner of the village lived and prepared to rest.

As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned for a moment, and saw a woman in a white skirt hiding in a corner with a cloth bag on her back, looking up at his tall figure and blood-stained face full of fear, holding a Shaking with a pair of scissors.

"Madam Yazhai?"

He scanned left and right, and there were traces of a woman's life in the house, which was definitely the wife of the original village owner.

He squeezed his chin and thought for a while, then said lightly:
"Do you want to leave?"

The woman looks pretty and pretty, although she is not that beautiful, but the delicate and pitiful Xiaojiabiyu's temperament is still very attractive to men, she is a typical Jiangnan woman.

It may be that Ye Chen's current appearance is too scary, she timidly said in a mosquito voice that he could barely hear:
"The little girl is originally from the south of the Yangtze River. She was robbed by the bandits to be the wife of the village when she was playing with her family. Now, now."

She couldn't say the following words, so she choked up and cried.

Ye Chen frowned, pressed his fingers on his temples, and said:
"The owner of Huangfeng Village who robbed you was chopped off by Master Niu. From today on, you are free. If you want to leave, I will let you go. If you don't want to, you can stay in the village and serve my daily life."

The woman didn't reply, but sobbed intermittently, which made him a little upset, and her voice couldn't help but grow louder:
"Hurry up and answer, whether to go or stay, or if you don't tell me, I will send someone to take you down the mountain."

The woman trembled involuntarily, and raised her head to reveal her delicate and delicate face. Seeing Zhang Fei's appearance and blood all over her body, she lowered her head like a frightened rabbit, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said softly:

"The little girl would like to stay here."

"Oh?"

Ye Chen was a little surprised, and asked strangely:

"Why don't you want to go back?"

The woman's voice was still so small and replied:
"The little girl has been robbed by bandits and taken up the mountain, her innocence has been lost, and she can no longer go home."

"Oh!"

Ye Chen nodded clearly, and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that in ancient times, women valued their innocence more than their lives. Generally, if a woman was snatched up the mountain by bandits, even if she was rescued after only one night, Even if she is still married, her reputation will be ruined, and no good family will want to marry her again. Even if she wants to marry, she can only marry a widower or a disabled person who is dozens of years older than herself, and her life will be ruined.

This is still considered good. Some families who consider themselves well-known scholars will never want such a daughter. If she returns home, she will be kicked out of the house in all likelihood.

This woman must have been robbed up the mountain for more than a day or two. Now even if she returns home, her family will not accept her. There is only one end.

Ye Chen is not the Holy Mother, but he doesn't like being a villain either, so he said:
"That being the case, if you want to be my maidservant, you can wash and cook for me. No one in the village dares to embarrass you, and I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. How about it?"

The woman looked up at him, gritted her teeth and nodded after a long while.

After talking, she put the package back in the residence, which is located in a compartment inside the master bedroom of Heifengzhai. He looked at it, and it was a simple small room, except for a small hole in the wall for ventilation, without even a window. There is a big lock outside, she seems to be locked here.

It seems that she is in a much better mood because she doesn't need to be Mrs. Yazhai. Although she is still nervous every time she sees Ye Chen, she has already taken the initiative to integrate into her role as a maid and tidy up the room for him.

The first day passed quickly, and when I got up early the next morning, I went to the inner compartment to check. She was squatting in the corner of the small bed and sleeping all night, holding a pair of scissors tightly. He shook his head with a smile and turned to leave.

The cottage was very quiet in the early morning, the bandits didn’t have the habit of getting up early, only the guards on the watchtower at the gate of the village were still awake, Ye Chen came to the center of the courtyard with his upper body shirtless, and called out the big ax weighing seven to eighty catties. wheezing.

Practicing martial arts is a long-term thing. Three days of fishing and two days of drying the net will never make any progress. Even if Ye Chen has the potential to improve martial arts, he still has to practice every day. One is to exercise his muscles and bones, and the other is to become proficient Moves, so as not to be unfamiliar.

It’s okay like him. The most critical internal strength can be improved with potential points. Like other descendants, the internal strength is cultivated persistently every day. After two or three hours of internal strength practice every day, the internal strength will gradually increase. It’s not like him. With a little bit of potential, the internal strength will increase by a large amount in an instant. If you say it, you will be envious of the dead.
