When Yun Zhi left, she naturally felt the burning gaze from Chen Yuanshu.

However, what puzzled her was that Chen Yuanshu's emotions towards her were too complicated.

Every time she appears, I will focus my eyes on her, although others will do the same.

But her eyes were like looking at the bright moon, far away and out of reach, yet she tried her best to get closer.

This look didn't start when they were selecting the guards. He started looking at her like this when they came to this mountain and Yun Zhi didn't even know her yet.

However, this is not a bad thing. Maybe we will know later.

What I didn't expect was that this opportunity would come so soon.

A month had passed in the blink of an eye during the guard team's training, and it was also a good opportunity to test their combat capabilities.

This time, the caravan they robbed that was transporting grain came from outside the area, and the people involved were all strangers, and it seemed they were not from the county town.

In this world, most of those who can remain successful in business for a long time are not good people, and they are the same as officials.

For example, the one in front of you.

Before I could even see the carriage, their voices drifted over.

These are all unbearable words to hear, as if treating civilians as playthings.

There was contempt in the words.

"Hahaha, do you remember the hunting competition a few days ago? I almost took first place, but unfortunately, I only killed fourteen."

"Of course I don't remember. It was really exciting. I only shot five."

"That's not possible for you, brother."

"What are you two talking about? I don't quite understand."

"You're new here, right? Just five days ago, our family head and the county magistrate jointly organized a Hundred Man Hunt. Two hundred civilians were placed in the hunting grounds, and we rode on horseback to chase the prey. The first three finishers received a reward."

"That scene was really exciting, much more fun than hunting animals. I still remember someone kneeling down and begging me to let him go, and I shot him in the head with an arrow. The blood flew everywhere. It was really fun."

"Hey, I'm just unlucky. I haven't encountered such a thing."

The sturdy man patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. If you miss this time, there will be another one. The head of the family said it will be held every six months."

"that would be great."

These unbearable sounds made the people hiding in the bushes tremble all over.

They are so bold! In their minds, human life is just like that of animals and can be killed at will.

Yun Zhi was very calm about these words, which did not cause any ripples in her mind.

In her previous life, she had seen something even more cruel: an official who loved beauty.

He skinned thousands of beauties alive to make beauty drums, just because he liked them.

There are countless such things.

"Da da da"

The horse's footsteps were getting closer.

As they came within their sight, feathered arrows flew out from both sides.

Everything is going on as usual.

There are still too few people nowadays. Eight out of the twelve are both archers and melee fighters, and one person has two roles.

We can only wait until there are more people and then let them specialize in one subject.

Among the twelve people, only Chen Yuanshu faced this kind of situation for the first time, while the others were experienced.

Seeing the right opportunity, he rushed out.

The only animals Chen Yuanshu had ever killed were probably livestock, looking at the blood spurting out.

She took a deep breath, gripped the sword tightly in her hand and rushed forward.

After a month of intensive study, he had made considerable progress. This time, it didn't take him long to kill all the members of the caravan with his sword.

This time, Yun Zhi and Zhou Yifeng did not intervene.

It looks like we can let them down alone next time.

On the way back.

Yun Zhi frowned as she looked at Chen Yuanshu, whose arm was stained red.

She was the one who was most seriously injured this time, not because she was weak.

She was really trying too hard. It was her first time, but she rushed to the front and killed more people than those adult men.

After arriving at the village, Yun Zhi looked at her. Her face was pale with pain, but she didn't make a sound.

"Chen Yuanshu, let me take you to see Doctor Qin."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Miss Yun."

Miss Yun actually knew her name. A blush appeared on Chen Yuanshu's pale face, and she even took her to see a doctor.

Miss Yun is so nice.

On the way to find Qin Wan.

"Just now, you shouldn't have been so aggressive. This is your first time doing this. It's actually okay to stand back."

Chen Yuanshu was stunned for a moment before she realized that Yun Zhi was talking to her.

"Ms. Yun, this world has always been unfair to women. Even if they do the same thing and put in the same effort, people only remember men. If women want to stand out, they have to do twice as much to be noticed."

Yes, why do you say that women are indecisive and cannot practice martial arts?

Why do we say that women can only be virtuous and help their husbands raise children?

Why do you say that only men can be emperors, and that women are against the laws of nature?

It seems that women are born inferior to men and can only be inferior to men forever.

"But, you can take your time."

Chen Yuanshu smiled and said, "Ms. Yun, I want to be the pride of my father and mother. I want people around me to know that I am not a bad daughter."

Chen Yuanshu is the oldest daughter in the Chen family, and she is the only daughter in the family.

For so many years, Chen's mother has been childless.

Because of this incident, people in the village were poking fun at the Chen family, saying that it was better to have a son. As for Chen Yuanshu, he was like water that would be poured out sooner or later.

The Chen family will also be extinct.

"But, my father and mother have never looked down on me because I'm a woman. They have always treated me very well."

At that time, Chen Yuanshu always wanted to be the pride of her parents, but what could she, a woman, do?

"Until I saw Miss Yun, I realized that being a woman could also earn praise from others and bring honor to my parents. So, I wanted to be someone like Miss Yun."

Because she successfully joined the guard team, people around her began to praise her parents for raising a good daughter.

Especially when Chen Yuanshu received that generous monthly salary last time, everyone praised him for being so capable.

Chen Yuanshu looked at Yun Zhi beside him with a burning gaze, and his tone became more respectful.

"Ms. Yun, I will always try my best to keep up with you and will not fall behind."

Yun Zhi glanced at her. No wonder Chen Yuanshu always looked at her like that.

"Chen Yuanshu, perhaps you can become a famous female general."

Before Chen Yuanshu could react, he had already arrived at Qin Wan's doorstep.

"Here we are. I'm leaving now."

"Okay, Miss Yun."

……

In the blink of an eye, it is the autumn harvest season again.

This is also the first year that these people have come here.

Some time ago, Yun Zhi ordered the guard team to send two people down the mountain every day to inquire about the situation in the county.

If things go as expected, something will definitely happen in the county during this period.

It's three o'clock in time.

There was a knock on Yunzhi's study door.

"Enter."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door creaked open.

Li Shun walked in sweating profusely, his breathing was a little rapid due to fast running.

He gasped, "Miss Yun, over there in the county town..."
