After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.

What "Miss Shu" said that day was absolutely right; there was indeed a "bandit insider" who wanted to take the opportunity to gain merit and climb the ranks!

If Li Linsheng were to become a city gate guard, or even rise to a higher position in the future, what would that be like?

If bandits enter the city, wouldn't it be like entering an empty land?!

Old Man Qian was furious, and as he spoke, trembling with anger, he told the soldiers everything in detail.

Li Shu took advantage of the chaos and ran away.

At this moment, Li Linsheng was fighting with great enthusiasm, feeling his blood boiling. Looking at the bandits, he felt as if he could see his bright future.

But he vaguely felt that things were getting tougher on his end, because... at some point, the bandit leader had shifted his main attack focus to him...

The opponent's martial arts skills were truly impressive; the large sword in his hand struck his weapon, causing his hand to go numb.

The bandit leader was furious.

Hearing the name "Li Linsheng" made him even angrier.

When the scouts who went into town a few days ago returned, they mentioned this young man from the Li family. They said he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but his tone was extremely arrogant! He was also extremely cocky, saying that he would kill them, these bandits, to gain merit in the future, and he also contemptuously said that they were cowardly and useless, and that he could kill several of them with one stroke!

Such arrogance at such a young age—if he's allowed to grow up, won't he become a formidable foe?!

The other party vented almost all their anger on Li Linsheng, and attacked him with extreme cruelty.

Li Linsheng was also very surprised, and was beaten so badly that he couldn't fight back.

He had hoped to make a name for himself, but unexpectedly suffered a series of defeats, which was somewhat embarrassing.

After struggling for a while, he realized that he was already in dire straits and that his act of rushing out to help was already worthy of the government's attention. If he continued to hold on, he feared he would lose his life. So he immediately shouted to the soldiers, "Come and help me capture this thief!"

"..." The officers and soldiers knew what was going on.

This kid from the Li family is just acting!

The two actors really acted like each other!

The fact that the bandit leader didn't attack their government troops but instead focused his offensive on Li Linsheng proves everything, doesn't it?

Clearly, this was to create momentum for Li Linsheng, firstly to highlight Li Linsheng's difference, and secondly to sever ties with Li Linsheng and pave the way for him!

Unfortunately, they saw through it long ago!

The leader's blades grew increasingly ruthless, and during the fight, one blade slashed at Li Linsheng's arm.

Blood gushed out, and Li Linsheng's heart sank.

He couldn't understand—were these soldiers stupid?!

He's fighting so hard, and none of these people even come to help?! And this bandit leader, his eyes are filled with resentment and murderous intent; for a moment, he even wondered if he was the bandit's father's killer!

He doesn't want to die here!

Li Linsheng mustered all his strength, ignoring the injury on his arm, and rolled away in one direction.

The leader wanted to give chase, but was stopped by his men.

"Brother, don't get entangled with this kid any longer, run!" one of the bandits cried out in anguish. "I'll cover you, brother, let's go!"

Their robbery attempt has completely failed. Right now, they can only try to minimize their losses. As long as they survive, they can always try again!

The bandit leader was very unwilling. They came to this town to rob because they didn't have many brothers and couldn't take over the big piece of Yicheng. What they got was just a small town. They finally got a big job and almost all of their brothers went out to help, but they failed!

With so many brothers losing their lives here, it will be difficult for them to enter the town again!

The leader was furious, but he knew in his heart that he could break through the encirclement on his own, but... he couldn't take care of his other brothers...

But now, there is no other way!

The leader pulled his horse over and leaped onto it, and the other bandits immediately followed, fighting off the government troops while continuing to retreat.

The soldiers seemed to be afraid of the bandits' abilities and dared not give chase, so the leader and seven or eight of his men escaped successfully in no time.

Li Shu hid in the shadows and took out the bow from his spatial storage.

Aiming at the leader on horseback, it shot out with a "whoosh".

Crooked.

The arrow pierced the other man's shoulder.

Li Shu was somewhat disappointed. Her aim was really bad. In her previous life, she had only played this sport at the shooting range, and she was still a bit unfamiliar with it in actual combat, so she couldn't kill with one shot.

Despite this, the leader was also seriously injured and nearly fell off his horse.

The other party seemed surprised that someone would shoot an arrow from behind. After regaining their balance, they immediately glanced in the direction from which the arrow had come...

Li Shu immediately put away his bow and arrows and ran down the alley.

As she left, she couldn't help but grumble and curse.

The military strength of Ganhe Town is really weak. Knowing that bandits were coming, they only sent less than two hundred men to ambush them. I guess these two hundred men were obtained by Old Man Qian after begging and pleading. Their abilities are also average, not as good as those elite bandits!

With fewer than thirty bandits, they were almost all capable of taking on ten men each. If it weren't for their numerical advantage, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold off a single bandit!

However, she had already achieved half of her goal; she couldn't concern herself with the bandits anymore.

At this time, the officers and soldiers were clearing the battlefield, and many people died.

Old Man Qian's face turned ashen. Seeing that the bandits had left, the neighbors all came out to help. The people here were used to seeing such a scene.

Moreover, in the past, the dead were mostly ordinary people, with few corpses of bandits.

This time was different; more than a dozen bandits died on the spot, and three were left alive.

They were tied up one by one.

"Tie him up... tie him up too, and take him back!" After the soldiers finished cleaning up the body, they didn't forget to take Li Linsheng with them.

Li Linsheng lost a lot of blood and his face was pale. He gritted his teeth and persevered, not leaving immediately, just so that these people would see his presence, praise his might, and elevate his status.

"Why are you tying me up?!" Li Linsheng looked at the other party in shock. "I just helped you drive away the bandits!!"

"You? Li Linsheng, what a coincidence! You weren't here when the bandits first arrived, but you started fighting when we showed up. At such a young age, you specifically targeted the bandit leader. Do you dare say you're innocent?! Take him away!" The soldiers' eyes were filled with coldness as they looked at him.

Li Linsheng was stunned.

Why is it different from what he expected?!

"I really came to help! I just killed a bandit. I don't know why the bandit leader was staring at me, but if I hadn't withstood his attack, many more of your people would have died. How can you betray me after you've served your purpose?" Li Linsheng was still young, and although he had great ambitions, he was flustered when he was wronged.

The three bandits who hadn't died were also somewhat surprised to see this.

They've fallen out!

Li Linsheng was determined to kill all these bandits, but the soldiers couldn't see through him and even suspected him of being an inside agent.

The three exchanged glances, almost as if they were of one mind.

This Li Linsheng is definitely problematic. He appeared out of nowhere and even killed one of his brothers. Not only that, but during his fight with the boss just now, although he was defeated, he persisted for a long time. If he were recommended by the government, he would surely become a great man in the future. Such a person...

If given the chance, I would naturally make him die with me!

The government officials took Li Linsheng away.

He hadn't yet figured out that it was Li Shu's fault; he just thought these officers and soldiers were as stupid as pigs.
