Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 17: Fighting the Three Heroes
"I used to trust you, Wang Xiao, why did you do this?"

Memories were churning in Jiang Yue's mind. He and Wang Xiao were childhood friends, and most importantly, they were both orphans.

When his predecessor was most lonely, it was Wang Xiao who took the initiative to comfort him and make friends with him.

When Wang Xiao was down and out, Jiang Yue gave him a bite of food even though he was almost starving to death.

"Trust? Do you think I need your trust?"

Wang Xiao sneered: "If it wasn't for the bow in your hand, who would play with an orphan like you? My father told me about your bow. I played with you just for the bow, you know?"

"Your father is as stupid as you. He was fooled by my father, just like you are now. Hahahaha——"

bang——

Jiang Yue's eyes were filled with anger, and he punched Wang Xiao in the face with a dull thud. Wang Xiao screamed in pain, and his nose bled.

Wang Xiao covered his nose and roared, his hands already covered in blood: "You, you, you dare to hit me? Generals Red and Purple, hit me!"

The two thugs, Red Nose and Purple Nose, rushed up together and started beating Jiang Yue.

Red Nose jumped directly behind Jiang Yue and pressed down on him with all his strength, holding Jiang Yue's neck with his arms, while Purple Nose punched and kicked Jiang Yue in the stomach.

Jiang Yue had never learned any boxing skills, and all his skills were in archery, so his punches were basically random and without any rules. However, Jiang Yue's skin was hardened to 30%, and he could drive two stones with his bow. Such brute force was simply not something that two thugs could suppress.

"Go away!"

Jiang Yue roared and swung it violently.

The red-nosed man riding on Jiang Yue felt as if he was riding a wild bull. The huge force was irresistible and he was thrown several meters away. His head hit a bluestone and blood gushed out immediately.

Purple Nose was frightened by Jiang Yue's brute force and stood still.

Jiang Yue took the opportunity to punch Zi Bizi and broke his nose.

Wang Xiao covered his nose, stunned. He didn't expect that the two most powerful generals with purple noses under his command would be defeated so easily by Jiang Yue. But he didn't have time to be surprised, because Jiang Yue had already punched him.

puff-

"You dare to hit me! My brother has learned the Lin family's martial arts. I will let my brother beat you to death tomorrow!"

"My brother is extremely talented, you are looking for death, Jiang Lao Er."

bang bang bang-

Punch to the flesh.

"Ah——Second Master Jiang, please forgive me!"

Wang Xiao screamed in pain and begged for mercy.

The sound of several people fighting here had already attracted many people to watch, especially those with the surname Wang, who all gathered around. A few hunters found out that it was Wang Xiao who went home to get a hatchet after being beaten, and they were eyeing Jiang Yue covetously.

Originally, Jiang Yue planned to cripple Wang Xiao's legs. He knew that a bully like Wang Xiao would have many enemies in the town. If he crippled Wang Xiao, many people would kill him.

However, Jiang Yue did not expect that the villagers would be attracted here so quickly. If he beat Wang Xiao into a cripple in public, he would probably go to jail, so he had to give up, thinking it was a pity.

After beating Wang Xiao severely, Jiang Yue let go and threw Wang Xiao into the crowd of Wang’s family members.

"Get lost. If you come to my house and steal things again, I will beat you to death."

The Wang family members wanted to say something and seek revenge, but when they heard Jiang Yue's words, their momentum instantly weakened, especially since Wang Xiao hadn't said anything to refute. The Wang family members felt ashamed and carried Wang Xiao away.

Those with the surnames Zhou and Zhao didn't want to see the fun and soon left.

In the end, only Old Man Jiang Cong and Silang squeezed over and looked at Jiang Yue with concern.

Originally, old man Jiang Cong had already prepared rice porridge and pickled meat, and was waiting for Jiang Yue to come back. However, he waited for a long time but did not see Jiang Yue. Instead, he heard the villagers making a fuss.

"Ji Lang, what's going on?"

Old Master Jiang Cong asked in a low voice.

"Grandpa, this is not the place to talk."

Jiang Yue unlocked the door, let Xiaotian out, and took Xiaotian and Jiang Cong home.
-
"Let's talk while we eat."

Jiang Cong put away the last bowl of rice porridge, placed a large bowl of pickled meat in the middle of the small wooden table, and poured a lot of food into the dog bowl. Then he looked at Jiang Yue.

"Grandpa, do you know that our family has some heirloom items?"

Jiang Yue asked while picking at the rice porridge. "Heirloom? There are many."

Jiang Cong also said while eating: "My father, your great-grandfather, is the ancestor of the Jiang family in Funiushan. He found the Stinky Vine Cave and the Broadleaf Plain and accumulated a lot of wealth. The only things passed down from our ancestors are some hunting tools, such as hatchets, longbows, traps and the like."

“That’s because of this.”

Jiang Yue said: "My father's lineage passed down to me, leaving behind a two-stone bow. This bow was favored by the eldest son of the Lin Mansion in town. No, it would be better to say that it was sold to Wang Xiao rather than being favored by him."

In less than five minutes, Jiang Yue told Jiang Cong everything that had happened because of Lao Gong, in great detail.

The reason is very simple. Jiang Yue felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he could only ask for help from his elders at home.

An old person in the family is like a treasure.

"I remember that your great-grandfather gave a poor young man a meal. The man left a two-stone bow and left. There may be something in this bow that we don't know."

Jiang Cong took a bite of rice and said, "Wang Xiao's father was once a good friend of your father. He often tried to find out the whereabouts of your father's two-stone bow. Now Wang Xiao is doing the same. Who knows, this two-stone old bow might be worth the money."

"It's possible that both father and son are jealous."

Jiang Yue stroked his chin.

What's so magical about his old bow?
Qimen Xu Chong?

very possible!
But how did the Wang family know?

Jiang Yue was wondering, but Jiang Cong knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "At that time, your father kept lying that it was lost a long time ago, fooling Wang Xiao's father for his whole life. In the end, the two of them died together in the mountains. Even an elder in the clan like me was fooled by your father and thought that the two crossbows were lost. I didn't expect that they were in your hands, and you showed them to Wang Xiao."

"Well, this crossbow is worth the money. As for why it is worth the money, only Wang Xiao and his father know. Wang Da may also know."

As expected of an old man who has been working in Funiu Village all his life, Jiang Cong is very experienced and can see things directly. He looked at Silang and said with a smile, "Silang, go and take the meal to your father."

"it is good."

Silang was listening intently. Hearing this, he pouted and took the meal into the house.

Old Master Jiang Cong then looked at Jiang Yue and said with a smile, "Erlang, kill Wang Daquan and Wang Xiaoquan as soon as possible."

Jiang Yue was stunned when he heard this.

My old man actually said such cruel words with a smile.

"What? Don't you dare?"

Jiang Cong asked.

"It's not that I don't dare. I want to cripple one of his legs tonight. He will definitely not live for more than seven days and will be killed by his enemies sooner or later."

Jiang Yue said helplessly: "It's just that the villagers came too quickly, and it's impossible to injure and maim people in public."

"fool!"

Jiang Cong taught him a lesson: "If you don't fight, it's fine. But if you do fight, it must be a fatal blow. Erlang, you didn't think it through and just beat him up. What was the result? Did you vent your anger? The result was that if you don't kill the snake, it will come back to life again! Wang Xiao knows that he can't beat you, so he will find another way to target you next time, which will make you passive and defenseless."

"If I were you, I would pretend to be a coward and get beaten tonight to let his guard down. Then I would follow him with a dog and find a deserted place to shoot him to death with one arrow and dump his body in the mountains."

Jiang Cong taught seriously: "Humans are different from beasts. Wild beasts can be beaten into submission, but humans will only become more resentful the more they are beaten. So either don't beat them, or beat them to death in one go. Do you understand, Erlang?"

"Grandpa, I understand."

Jiang Yue took a deep breath.

"So what should you do now? Talk to Grandpa and let him see if you really understand."

Jiang Cong stroked his beard.

Jiang Yue said in a deep voice: "Grandson needs to be on guard against Wang Xiao's revenge. He knows he can't beat me, so he might steal next time, or even poison or rob. Grandson must be extremely careful. At the same time, send Xiaotian to follow Wang Xiao. If there is a chance to kill Wang Xiao and Wang Da at the same time, grandson will take action immediately."

"Yes, Not Bad."

Old Master Jiang Cong sighed, "You have considered it very carefully. However, Wang Xiao probably wants to keep the precious bow for himself, otherwise he wouldn't have mentioned the hush money, and he wouldn't have brought people to rob it. It's very likely that he poisoned you. You have to be careful recently. You have to go into the mountains during the day and come to my grandfather's house to eat at night. They don't have the opportunity to poison the food at my grandfather's house."

Jiang Yue smiled when he heard that.

poison?
He is immune to all poisons.
