On the third day of February, the fourth lady came down the mountain carrying Xiao Heqiao, and beside her was the wife of the Hu family holding her daughter.

Hu Jia Erlang was in charge of guarding the mountain stronghold because he was older and had a lucky escape. He had left the mountain the day before yesterday because the town needed strong laborers to deal with the aftermath.

The attack of tens of thousands of government troops was disrupted by a rooster.

Wherever the rooster flies, its feathers are like sharp blades, and anyone who gets close will either be killed or injured.

Under its claws, acquired warriors are as powerless as children.

Even Yan Fangci himself had his crown shattered by a claw.

The rest of the people thought that the people of Baimu Town had the help of gods, and they all knelt down and begged for surrender.

The battle ended in a whimper due to the "disruption" of the rooster, and the townspeople survived. Some even collapsed on the ground, unable to speak.

According to statistics on the second day, more than 3,000 enemies were killed and more than 6,000 were captured. A small number of government troops took advantage of the chaos to escape and their whereabouts are unknown.

The guard battalion itself suffered 762 deaths and 547 serious injuries, which was more than half of its total casualties.

Xu Yan was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and although he managed to survive with the help of Zhuangxue Powder, he was probably unable to make any progress in martial arts due to excessive consumption.

Of his nine direct disciples, three were killed in action, and two suffered irreversible injuries.

He Qiao learned from the captives that most of Cangzhou's troops had gone to the south to quell the rebellion. The city was empty, and it would be difficult to mobilize a large army to fight again in a short period of time.

He ordered the cavalry to scout outside Baimu Town for two days and confirmed that no government troops were coming to help. He finally felt relieved and allowed the elderly, weak, women and children in the mountains to go down the mountain and settle down.

At this time, spring has already returned to Baimu Town, and new green has appeared in the fields.

After two months of getting along, the women from the He and Hu families have become very familiar with each other.

Mrs. Hu even suggested that Hu Anan take her as a godmother, but Mrs. He politely declined.

She was still counting on the other party to become her in-law, and didn't want to have an extra daughter for no reason.

After the women and children came down from the mountain, there was still much to do. February was approaching the time for spring ploughing, and they had to quickly prepare the land, weed, and compost.

If we miss the farming season, the consequences will not be much better than losing this battle.

There is still a large amount of forest land available for reclamation in Fengqi Mountain. More food means more hope for survival.

Many houses in the town were damaged during the fighting and needed extensive repairs.

There are so many chores and countless tasks for men, women, young and old to do.

For He Qiao and others, how to deal with these captured government troops was also a big problem.

Baimu Town was badly hurt this time and wanted to take in captives, but most of them had families and deep hatred for the people of Baimu Town.

Staying here would not only fail to be helpful, but would instead become a huge disaster.

Even if we force them to stay, how will we deal with the extra food rations?

Someone suggested that these prisoners should be directly buried alive, which would not only avenge the fallen soldiers of the guard battalion, but also avoid the need to worry about these problems.

Of course, some people think that this is against the harmony of nature and it would be better to punish them with hard labor until they die of exhaustion.

Finally, He Qiao made the decision to take in two thousand captives, put them in shackles, and reclaim wasteland in Fengqi Mountain.

The remaining captives had their thumbs chopped off and were thrown outside to fend for themselves.

The bodies of the government troops were burned on the spot, and thick smoke filled the entire town.

The small mound outside Baimu Town is now full of new graves.

Although the fallen soldiers of the guard camp were not happy with their age, the townspeople unanimously agreed to bury them in a Feng Shui treasure land.

Almost every family in the town wore mourning clothes and wore hemp cloth.

Although the cause of the tragedy was related to Xu Xiru, the real culprit was still the corrupt and dark court.

The imperial court was cruel and wanted to put them to death, so they had no choice but to rebel against this damn imperial court.

The people of Baimu Town called themselves the Beggars' Camp, nominated Xu Yan as general, He Qiao as commander, and Xu Xiru as clerk, and officially raised the flag of rebellion.

Let's put the arrangements for the rebellion aside for now, there are more important things to do.

That day, many townspeople recognized the rooster that saved them. It looked like the one raised by Chen Yu.

Although the feathers' expressions were slightly different from those seen before, they were quite similar and there was almost no other possibility.

A few days later, Xu Yan's injury healed a little, so he brought his disciples to express his gratitude.

It happened that Chen Yu was practicing in the space, and the animals in the yard ignored them.

At sunset, Xu Yan and others had been waiting at the door for a day, and finally the sound of the door opening was heard in the yard.

A huge crane, taller than Xu Yan when it stood up, was holding the door bolt in its mouth.

The animal raised by Mr. Chen is indeed extraordinary. In the past, I only thought that this big bird had the ability to catch wild beasts, but I didn’t know that it also has human-like intelligence.

Chen Yu had finished his training and was standing in the yard watching them come in.

As soon as Xu Yan came in, he knelt on the ground, and the other disciples followed suit.

As soon as they entered the yard, they saw the rooster that had saved them on the battlefield that day, now walking in the yard.

"I would like to thank you for your help and for saving the people of Baimu Town from danger. But I owe you another favor, and I am afraid I will never be able to repay it in this lifetime."

Although the disciples didn't know when their master would owe them another favor, they all expressed their gratitude sincerely.

No one looked up at the expression on Chen Yu's face. They only heard him say, "I was not involved in what happened a few days ago. It was two thieves who broke into my yard and were driven away by Yun Jiu."

"If you want to thank something that day, thank it."

Xu Yan followed suit and moved to the rooster, kneeling again and saying, "Thank you for saving me, Senior Rooster. I will never forget your kindness. But please command me, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

The rooster naturally understood what he was saying, and he puffed out his chest even more with a look of pride on his face.

The disciples followed with words of gratitude and praise, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the open courtyard gate.

It turned out that the ducks raised by Chen Yu had returned from foraging in Baimu Valley and were now shouting outside the yard.

His estimation was correct. Baimugou was connected to the Jishui River, and within a few months, many fish were swimming in the water.

Xu Yan and his disciples were very surprised to see a group of ducks coming in one after another.

The animals that Mr. Chen raises at home are different from those raised by others.

The feathers are shiny and smooth, and at first glance, the body and demeanor appear quite powerful.

Xu Yan looked at the ducks and felt that he was no match for any of them.

It was getting dark, and Chen Yu still had to light a fire and cook, so he urged them to leave.

The crowd did not dare to disobey the order, and left the room one after another, still praising the chicken immortal: "We will never forget the kindness of the chicken immortal."

After everyone left, Yunjiu jumped over to close the door. Then, it gently flapped its wings and flew back to its nest in the side room.

Chen Yu picked up the rooster and said, "I didn't expect that your master is still a little Qi-refining cultivator, but you have already become a chicken immortal."

If you want to survive in the world, you must have a reputation.

A monster at the first level of Qi Refining has an intelligence almost as high as that of a human, so we have to give it a name.

When the rooster crows, the world becomes bright, so I’ll call you Taibai.
