Chapter 329: Massacre of the Village (2)
Chu Xiaomu was already murderous, and he left no chance for the opponent to escape. He used the Dragon Spine Sword Style, and immediately the sword light flashed like flying stars or a dragon swallowing a pearl.
Although the woman knew how to dodge and her movements were quite swift, she was like a rabbit meeting an eagle under the Dragon Spine Sword style. She jumped twice before being stabbed in the chest by Chu Xiaomu's sword.
The strange thing was that although there was a deep wound on her chest, not much blood flowed out. She didn't seem to feel any pain. As soon as Chu Xiaomu drew out his sword, she rushed over again.
Chu Xiaomu turned his wrist and swung the sword fiercely, cutting off half of the woman's head. The woman screamed strangely, her hands and feet twitched, and finally fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Chu Xiaomu suddenly realized, "It turns out that these monsters can only be defeated by hitting their heads." He shouted, "Hit their heads, hit their heads!" He swung his sword and stabbed the head of another "villager" who rushed over. He had practiced the "Dragon Spine Sword Style" whenever he had time in the past few months, and he had mastered the moves very well.
At a glance, I saw that the soldiers were fighting with the "villagers". The soldiers of the Dongzhong Army lined up in a horizontal line, advancing steadily like a solid iron wall. When a "villager" jumped up and rushed over, the long spears in the hands of several nearby soldiers stabbed from different angles, and the person was hit. It was just difficult to stab the head. Although the "villager" was injured, he was still alive for a while. After breaking free from the long spear, he rushed towards people again. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Dongzhong Army were well-trained and did not show any signs of panic.
On the other hand, Chu Xiaomu's team, everyone was fighting on their own, some one-on-one, some one against two, Zhou Weide was shouting, actually one against three, a "villager" suddenly pounced on him when he was not prepared, Zhou Weide hurriedly dodged sideways, the "villager" stretched out his hand, and his hard fingers tore off a large piece of his clothes on his back. Chu Xiaomu rushed over, stabbing with the long sword in his hand, two swords stabbed the back of the heads of two "villagers" respectively, and the two men collapsed to the ground, and it seemed that they would not get up again.
Zhou Weide was much more relaxed in dealing with one person, he just roared, the spear in his hand stretched and retracted, stabbing at the man repeatedly. When everyone practiced the "Return to the Stars" to open the force, they also asked Chu Xiaomu to teach Bicheng's battle formation spear style. Chu Xiaomu didn't learn it very well, and it became even worse when it was taught to Zhou Weide and others.
Although Zhou Weide's shots were far from the authentic battle spear style, he was quite strong and had a violent temper, so these shots were also very powerful and impressive. The "villager" didn't know how to dodge, and was shot in the waist and shoulder, and his speed immediately slowed down. Zhou Weide pulled out his spear and hit him twice on the head. The "villager" rolled his eyes and fainted on the ground. Zhou Weide quickly stabbed him in the head with another shot.
Chu Xiaomu glanced at the battlefield and saw Su Mishun being chased by four or five "villagers". He quickly rode his horse to catch up with him and stabbed one of them to death. He said, "Shunzi, I will protect you, and you shoot their heads with arrows!"
When Su Mishun saw Chu Xiaomu arriving, he instantly became bolder. He hung his spear on his back, changed for a bow and arrow, and shot four arrows, knocking down the four "villagers" chasing him, and the arrows hit them right on the head.
Chu Xiaomu praised: "Shunzi, your archery skills are getting more and more accurate, you are really amazing!"
Everyone rushed in, and Su Mishun was good at archery. In less than half an hour, all the "villagers" who had chased out were killed. Only Gao Tinggeng was left, making a strange "woohoo" sound and fighting with two soldiers of the Dongzhong Army. Everyone knew him, and no one had the heart to kill him.
Chu Xiaomu rode forward and said, "Tie up Captain Gao first, and then take him back to General Ding for disposal." A soldier was carrying two bundles of ropes for tying sheep, which came in handy.
Unfortunately, Gao Tinggeng is a sergeant captain of Bicheng. Although he has not yet activated the Force, he is strong and powerful. Everyone is afraid of being bitten by him, so they can't catch him for a while.
Chu Xiaomu had no choice but to take Su Mishun's spear, and when the time was right he shot him in the head, knocking Gao Tinggeng unconscious.
The soldiers then dismounted and tied him up tightly. They were afraid that he would bite people after waking up, so one soldier cut off a piece of his clothes and tied his mouth tightly with it.
Everyone was afraid and heartbroken when they saw the corpses of the "villagers" scattered all over the ground. Several Dongzhong Army soldiers who were acquainted with the villagers of Dongxi Village even started crying.
Chu Xiaomu asked: "How many people are there in Dongxi Village?"
A sergeant said there were about sixty or seventy people, but the exact number was not clear.
Chu Xiaomu took a breath and said, "So, there are still 20 or 30 in the village..."
Everyone understood what he meant. The remaining 20 to 30 villagers in the village must have resurrected from the dead and turned into mindless monsters, just like the ones who were chasing them out. If they were left alone in the village, they would sooner or later encounter herdsmen from other villages passing by, or even flee to other villages. By then, the consequences would be disastrous.
A sergeant said, "Maybe we can capture them all, there's no need to kill them all..." But looking at the brothers and friends fighting together beside him, what if one of them gets bitten and turns into a monster? Thinking of this, he couldn't say any more.
Chu Xiaomu naturally knew how difficult this matter was. What if there was a way to cure them, but they were all killed? Who could bear such a sin? If they could not be cured and did nothing, once a few of them ran away and endangered the safety of other villages, who could bear the consequences?
Such a dilemma is really despairing.
Wangang said: "Xiaomu, you have to come up with a plan quickly. If they scatter everywhere, it will be bad."
Chu Xiaomu did not dare to delay any longer and said, "Let's go over there quickly and act accordingly."
The soldiers of the Dongzhong Army had no better idea, so they all followed his instructions. Chu Xiaomu asked two soldiers to stay behind to guard Gao Tinggeng, and the rest followed his team to Dongxi Village.
It was past midnight, the pale moon was sinking, and it was getting darker all around. The group had not yet returned to Dongxi Village, so they had to find some hay, make a few simple torches, and continue on their way.
Crossing a small stream, a sergeant whispered, "Captain Chu, we're here. We have to be careful."
It was pitch black all around and I had no way of telling where I was going until I came across the stream that ran through the village. Only then did I realize I had arrived at Dongxi Village.
Chu Xiaomu hurriedly told everyone to keep quiet and not move.
