Su Zhizhi didn't know that the old lady wanted to sell her son. She spent the whole day in the house reading some books about the current era in order to better integrate into this society.

That evening, Mrs. Meng returned. She was a beautiful young woman, well-educated, gentle, and amiable, though her face often wore a look of fatigue. Su Zhizhi used the ingredients in the universal capsule to make some food. Mrs. Meng tasted a few bites and then, exhausted, rested.

Su Zhizhi knew that she was just trying to supplement the family income, and she couldn't help but sigh.

Late at night, when everything was completely silent, the originally peaceful night was shattered by the sound of horse hooves. Following a shrill wail, the village was thrown into chaos: "Bandits are coming!!"

The Su family also woke up at the same time. A group of people tried to rush out in panic, but were scared back by the flames. Su Zhizhi sat up, looked at the flames outside in astonishment, and without a moment's hesitation, she took out a ring-shaped weapon from inside.

This is a miniature machine gun developed in the future. It can fire up to five bullets at a time. It can be used for self-defense, and if you're positioned correctly, it's not lethal.

However, that wasn't necessarily the case now. Su Zhizhi had played shooting before, so she had a good grasp of accuracy. Before the bandits arrived, Su Zhizhi quickly put on her clothes and, using the camouflage system of the universal capsule, quietly hid in a corner.

Soon three bandits rushed to the Su family. Just when they wanted to kick open the door to arrest people, Su Zhizhi reached out, adjusted the angle, and quickly turned on the button!

In an instant, several lasers shot out from the ring and pierced through the bandit's eyebrows!

Before the Su family could react, the bandits fell to the ground, their eyes wide open.

Su Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why this weapon was not controlled in their era was because each of them had their body strengthened since birth, and this level of vitality could not be fatal.

However, in this time and space, facing an unfortified body, the lethality of this weapon is quite significant.

Su Zhizhi didn't care about the affairs of the second and third rooms. She quietly returned to her room and saw Meng was about to go out to look for someone. The moment she saw Su Zhizhi was intact, Meng's tears immediately flowed down.

"Zhizhi, you scared me to death..."

She woke up in shock and found that Su Zhizhi was not there. She thought she had an accident and was about to go out to look for her. Fortunately, Su Zhizhi came back on her own.

Su Zhizhi's eyes softened as she looked at Xie Chengjin and said softly, "I'll leave my mother to you."

"what are you going to do?!"

Xie Chengjin was shocked.

Su Zhizhi was very calm: "If the bandits don't leave, we're still in danger. Don't worry, I once met a master of mechanical devices, and he taught me a very powerful hidden weapon. With it, I will be fine. But to prevent the bandits from coming again, you must stay and protect my mother."

Xie Chengjin looked at the bandit's body at the gate of the courtyard, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Then be careful."

Su Zhizhi nodded and used the universal capsule to sneak out quietly. At this moment, the bandits had occupied the square and drove all the villagers to the square.

Su Zhizhi stood in the corner and adjusted the angle. Just when the bandit was about to kill, Su Zhizhi directly turned on the weapon button!

Several traps flashed by, and five more bandits fell. The bandit leader was startled and shouted in horror: "Who!"

No one responded. Su Zhizhi pursed her lips and fired five more shots in a row. The bandit leader's eyes blurred, and his second-in-command and third-in-command were killed on the spot.

“…Boss, there’s a ghost, there’s a ghost!”

The remaining bandits were frightened out of their wits. Su Zhizhi smiled and took out a small loudspeaker from the universal capsule.

"You bandits, leave immediately!"

The loudspeaker spread her voice in all directions, and at the same time, the weapons were activated, and three more bandits died with their eyes open.

The bandits were finally frightened, and the leader shouted "Retreat!" before fleeing with the remaining bandits. After the bandits had all left, Su Zhizhi put away her gadgets and rushed over to help untie the villagers.

"Are you okay?!"

The villagers looked at Su Zhizhi in a daze, and someone recognized her voice.

"Just now, was it you who did this?"

Su Zhizhi nodded, and she used her tricks to fool the villagers again. Because the Su family was exiled from Shangjing, it was quite normal for these villagers to have some strange experiences in the capital, so they quickly believed Su Zhizhi's words.

"That's great, Miss Su, this time it's all thanks to you!"

"Yeah, yeah, if it weren't for you, we would be doomed!"

Everyone surrounded Su Zhizhi, expressing their gratitude. Su Zhizhi smiled and waved. Xie Chengjin happened to see this scene when he arrived. He looked at Su Zhizhi's bright face, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

It seems that this little girl is more unusual than he thought.

The news of Su Zhizhi scaring off the bandits spread quickly, and the whole village came to express their gratitude to her. Although Su Zhizhi said it was not polite, she still accepted the gifts from the villagers and did so with confidence.

Because the bandits suffered heavy losses before they could even start, the villagers' money and lives were basically safe. However, even though most people praised Su Zhizhi, some discordant voices gradually emerged among the villagers.

"Why thank her? If the bandits don't get any benefits, they will definitely come back!"

"If the bandits come again, won't her tricks be useless?"

"She thought she was helping us, but she actually wanted to kill us!"

Gradually, the voices grew louder and louder. Su Zhizhi wasn't the type to let others slander her. After discussing it with Xie Chengjin, she left the house and, while the villagers were chatting in the village square in the afternoon, she grabbed an aunt who was badmouthing her.

"It's you, you ungrateful, despicable, shameless villain who doesn't know how to repay my kindness in saving your life, spreading rumors, right?"

Su Zhizhi spoke so quickly that the old lady was suddenly overwhelmed by so many hats. She was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly: "It's not me, I heard it from Lao Liu!"

Su Zhizhi immediately looked in the direction of her finger at Lao Liu. Lao Liu also panicked and quickly shifted the blame: "I heard it from A Mei Niang at the east end of the village!"

Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin knocked on every door, and based on the testimony of each person who tried to shift the blame, they finally found their aunt Zhou.

Zhou was stunned. She didn't expect Su Zhizhi to do this. She was about to make an excuse when she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the distance again.

"Oh no! Bandits, the bandits are here again!"

"what?!"

The villagers were horrified and immediately lost their composure.

Zhou's words of defense instantly fell back into her stomach. She pointed at Su Zhizhi and said proudly, "I told you, it's all her fault! Look, the bandits are here!"

Su Zhizhi remained unmoved. She raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "It's already this late, and you still have the mood to blame me?"

Zhou was choked up. Before she could say anything, the village chief came running over, panting: "Don't panic, don't panic! Our county yamen runners ambushed us at the village entrance in advance, and they just captured the bandit leader!!"

what?

The villagers were stunned after experiencing such a shock and joy. Zhou was also stunned. Only Su Zhizhi covered her lips with her hands and smiled brightly: "Oh my, the bandits came and left again~"
