"Old Hu, you and I will each guard an arrow tower. If you discover any situation, don't hesitate to sound the alarm. I will come to your aid as soon as possible."

Chen Changfan arranged Hu the tile maker to guard the arrow tower in the south, which was in the direction of the county town and there might be refugees flocking there.

He focused his attention on the arrow tower in the north, so that if the bandits from the Black Wind Village came over, they would be the first to notice it.

Bricklayer Hu nodded, tightened the quiver on his shoulder, and climbed up the arrow tower.

In the past few days, he also took some time to practice archery. Of course, his talent was far inferior to Lao Wei's. He could only guarantee that the arrow would be shot out, but it was difficult to guarantee where it would be shot.

Chen Changfan did not force everyone to be an archer.

In fact, most of the time, just carrying a bow and arrow is enough to scare away most people.

The space in the arrow tower was not big, so he sat down cross-legged, feeling the mountain breeze, and all his sleepiness disappeared.

The night in the mountains is not that dark. In addition to the cold moonlight, you can even see the brilliant starry sky stretching across the sky.

"Who could have imagined that a horrific natural disaster would befall us tomorrow from a sky like this?"

Chen Changfan fumbled out the tortoise shell in his arms. A line of ancient red characters on it was particularly eye-catching.

[Hail will fall tomorrow, some as big as watermelons and some as small as eggs]

"I don't know if this natural disaster is just one round, or if it will happen every now and then in the future."

After putting away the turtle shell, Chen Changfan felt that his sense of crisis was slightly reduced.

At present, apart from the hail disaster tomorrow, there will be no natural disasters in at least two months.

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility of sudden changes in the weather.

Fortunately, he has developed the habit of checking the turtle shell every day, so he will not miss any important information easily.

In addition, now that his wife and daughter have been transferred to the shelter, it is much safer than before, and he can focus more on the construction of the villa.

But it is still in its infancy. There is a shortage of manpower inside and the threat of bandits outside. It is not easy to build a villa.

Susu!

Suddenly, a slight noise came into his ears and he immediately became alert. He looked forward and felt that under the shadow of the trees in the distance, there seemed to be a dark shadow moving slowly, as if something was slowly approaching this side.

In the shadows, a bandit who looked like a small thug pointed at the wooden wall in front of him and said respectfully to a red-faced man beside him:

"Master, this is it. That day, after Mr. Pu patrolled this mountain, he disappeared inexplicably. He must have been killed by someone on this mountain."

Pei Lao Hu nodded, squinted his eyes and looked at the wooden wall in front of him, feeling a little confused.

He remembered that this place used to be a barren mountain. When did it become surrounded by a wall? Could it be a new group of bandits?

As the head of the Tingfeng Hall in Heifeng Village, his subordinates were mainly responsible for patrolling the mountains and gathering intelligence on surrounding forces. When Pu Lao San did not return for several days, he brought his subordinates to look for him, but he did not expect to find Xiaofeng Mountain in the dark night.

"Bring your weapons and disperse towards the wall. Don't alert the enemy yet. We just need to gather intelligence, and the village chief will decide the rest."

At his command, all eight of his men moved, silently approaching the wooden wall.

shhhhhhhh!

Suddenly, there was a slight sound above his head. Pei Lao Hu paused and subconsciously squatted in the grass.

The sound was a bit like a bird flying by, and a bit like raindrops falling. The sound was very light and seemed harmless to humans and animals.

thump!

thump!

Several dull noises were heard in succession. Pei Lao Hu watched as the four men who were rushing in the front suddenly stopped and then fell down one after another.

He couldn't help but hold his breath, his pupils dilated, and his brain was unable to react for a moment.

Just when he vaguely sensed that something was wrong, two more blind men approached again.

shhhhhh!

Three more noises were heard, and this time he saw them clearly. From the distant archery tower, three arrows were fired simultaneously, hitting the three men with incredible precision.

Three arrows pierced the throat, indicating that the archery skills of these three people had reached superb levels.

"What happened? Why did they suddenly lie down?" The little follower who led the way couldn't help but ask.

"Get down quickly! There's an archer in that arrow tower!"

Pei Lao Hu cursed the fool in his heart, and at the same time, he lay as low as possible on the ground, for fear of being spotted by the archer in the arrow tower.

At a distance of a hundred steps, he shot the enemy in the throat with one arrow. When did such a powerful archer appear in this mountain?

"Master, where is the archer? Don't scare me."

The little minion was obviously a little unconvinced. He had seen the archers in the mountain stronghold shooting arrows. The sound of the bowstrings being stretched was very loud, and the arrows were whistling, but he didn't hear any sound at all just now.

His common sense was correct, but he didn't know that he was facing a cheater like Chen Changfan.

The Cold Rain Arrow, which was a fusion of the Light Rain Arrow Technique, made an even quieter sound than before.

If the sound of archery in the past was like that of a light machine gun, then the sound of the cold rain arrows now is like a silent pistol.

If it weren't for the alertness Pei Lao Hu had accumulated from years of walking in the mountains, he would probably be a corpse now.

He moved backwards little by little, not daring to even breathe.

"Master, are you still there? How many archers are there? If there's only one, you and I can split up and attack him."

The little minion felt that it was time for him to make a contribution. Instead of being afraid, he was eager to try.

"Idiot! There are at least three of them. If you and I go up there, we'll both die!"

Pei Lao Hu couldn't help but curse.

He had clearly seen three arrows shot out at the same time, so he concluded that there were at least three archers on the arrow tower, and all of them were excellent archers.

Who on earth is this person?

Among the hundreds of brave men in their Black Wind Village, he asked himself if he could find even one such archer, while the other side actually had three!

Tatata!

There were footsteps beside me.

It turned out that the little minion was so scared when he heard that the other party were three archers that he immediately turned around and ran away.

However, the minions still lack practical combat experience. Although they stand up and run fast, they also die quickly.

call out!

The arrow flew over instantly as if it had eyes, hitting the minion's back accurately. The panicked expression on the latter's face froze instantly.

"It really is... a divine arrow..."

With a thud, the minion's body fell down and fell in front of Pei Lao Hu.

He was so frightened that he couldn't breathe, his heart was beating very fast, and his hands and feet were shaking uncontrollably.

Pei Lao Hu knew that the archer must still be aiming at this place, so he didn't dare to move and just lay there.

He didn't know when the fatal sound would come and when it would take his life. This feeling was more painful than death.

In the past, it was always the people from the Black Wind Village who reaped the lives of others. They had never felt like their lives were hanging by a thread.

He felt extremely aggrieved.

He hadn't even seen what the other party looked like before he lost eight of his men, and he didn't even know if he could survive.

But the desire to survive made him remain motionless, and this continued until the second half of the night.

……

"Boss, it's time to change guards."

When Chen Changfan heard Lao Wei's voice, he realized that it was already midnight.

He had noticed something unusual before and killed eight people with his arrows. Then he took a few more shots and felt that there were no people around, so he stayed in the arrow tower and pretended to take a nap. He accidentally fell asleep.

"Be careful, I shot a few wolf cubs."

In Chen Changfan's mind, those bandits were nothing but wolf cubs. He killed them easily, so he just downplayed it.

"Okay, I'll definitely keep watch!"

Old Wei patted his chest, stood on the arrow tower and looked back and forth with his eyes wide open.

Chen Changfan was also sleepy, so he yawned and went down the arrow tower and went into the cave to catch up on his sleep.

Pei Lao Hu froze on the cold grass for half the night, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he slowly moved away.

He crouched down and retreated for hundreds of meters before he dared to half-stand up and run wildly into the distance.

"This Xiaofeng Mountain is too terrifying. I must report it to the village chief when I get back!"
