The Snail Princess and Her Benefactor

Chapter 182: Resurrection of the Pig Head

Sitting on a tall horse was a general wearing armor and looking majestic. The long axe in his hand shone with a terrifying cold light in the moonlight.

The villagers, shivering in the night wind, dared not move. They could only support each other and allow themselves to be pushed around by the ferocious and bullying officers and soldiers in the cold wind.

The powerful officers and soldiers surrounded and controlled the hundreds of people in the village.

In front of the general's horse, there was an altar with an incense burner on it.

There was a stick of incense burning in the incense burner, and it was almost burned out.

The general stroked his pig-like beard and his toad-like mouth opened and closed.

"Yang Shilin, listen to me. If you don't show up when this stick of incense burns out, I will kill a villager from the village of Xilong."

As he spoke, the soldiers beside him pulled out a woman from among the villagers. The woman had a slightly bulging belly.

The crowd suddenly became chaotic, with cries and pleas coming one after another, but the officers and soldiers didn't care at all and kept hitting the villagers with the long whips in their hands.

A burly officer pulled the woman in front of the general's horse and made her kneel down.

The woman was probably frightened and begged for mercy incoherently.

"My lord, please spare my life... My lord, please spare my life..."

The general on horseback thought she was too noisy, so he waved his hand and several of his officers and soldiers rushed over.

In no time, the woman was tied up and her mouth was gagged.

He leaned slightly on his horse and looked at the woman kneeling in front of the horse.

"Don't blame me, woman! The one who killed you was Yang Shilin, not me. He didn't care about the lives of your fellow villagers in order to escape."

"Yang Shilin came here overnight, and he only knew to tell his master to leave, but he didn't know how to take all of you, the hundred or so people, with him. And you are still here to help him conceal the truth. You really are a bunch of ungrateful people."

"Hahaha... But that kid didn't expect that even if he escaped to the ends of the earth, he is already a serious criminal of the imperial court. No matter where he flees, there will be people chasing him!"

I saw the incense in the incense burner getting shorter and shorter, and the bright flames flickered in the night wind, approaching the root.

"Yang Shilin, you still won't come out!"

The general waved his hand and signaled his men to push the woman over.

A strong soldier picked up the woman and threw her in front of the general's horse.

The cold light shone on the iron armor, and the chilling axe, with a "whoosh", was placed on the woman's white neck.

How could the woman withstand this blow with the heavy axe on her neck?

She was instantly crushed and unable to lift her head, but the soldier behind her held the woman tightly to prevent her from falling to the ground.

"You stinky boy from the Yang family, I don't have that much patience to play with you. If you don't come out when the incense ash burns out, this woman will be beheaded!"

A gust of cold wind blew, and the incense in the incense burner burned faster.

The wailing in the crowd suddenly exploded, and the villagers scrambled to break the siege.

But everyone was unarmed, and the soldiers were only holding short swords and spears.

In just a few strokes, several of them were stabbed or chopped down. How could they defeat the ferocious soldiers?

"puff……"

The little bit of red in the incense burner used up its last bit of strength and finally went out.

"Ah... Sir, she is pregnant! That means two lives are lost..."

An old woman in the crowd rushed to the front and roared, ignoring the swords and guns of the soldiers.

The general on horseback didn't care about that and saw the incense in the incense burner go out.

He immediately raised the long axe in his hand high up and chopped down at the woman's neck.

"call……"

A long arrow stabbed straight at the axe.

"when……"

After a loud bang, the long axe was knocked away by the long arrow, which showed how strong the archer's arm strength was.

"Whizzing……"

Two long arrows flashed with cold light and pierced straight into the head of the man on horseback.

The general on the horse really had two moves. When he heard the sound of the arrows, he knew something was wrong and fell backwards on the horse in a flash.

Two powerful arrows whizzed past his body.

Immediately afterwards, a long arrow stabbed the soldier who was holding the woman.

"puff……"

The bullet hit the soldier's chest directly. The soldier didn't even see that he had been pierced. He fell to the ground and didn't move.

The general on horseback was so shocked that he gasped and cursed in his heart.

"Who the hell is this? How come his archery skills are so exquisite? I almost lost my life here!"

I saw three figures not far away moving towards here quickly.

A tall and strong young man with long flowing hair, followed closely by two charming and graceful girls.

In front of the three people stood a sturdy and mighty black and white beast. Its strong four hooves made the ground whirring and sand and gravel flying as it ran.

The bear's mouth opened wide, its fangs flashed coldly in the night light, and its pair of obsidian eyes stared at the general on horseback.

There was a fierce light in the bear's eyes, as if it wanted to tear the officer on the horse into pieces and chew them up and eat them.

The officers on their tall horses were so frightened when they saw this scene that they stepped back one after another.

With a wave of the axe in his hand, the soldiers behind him immediately understood how to deploy the troops, and the formation changed in an instant to meet the enemy.

Thousands of soldiers, moving in a well-trained manner, had surrounded the villagers.

The general retreated into the battle formation, with rows of shields in the front row, protecting the entire army behind them.

Hua Chao, Yang Shilin and Ling Mi rushed forward in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the rows of shields in front of him that were as strong as a mountain of copper and iron, there seemed to be a raging fire burning in Yang Shilin's amber eyes.

Maomao, however, rushed forward regardless, wanting to use his pair of bear paws to tear a bloody path through the enemy.

“Maomao…”

Hua Chao grabbed Maomao's soft fur beside him and used all his strength to control Maomao and prevent it from rushing forward.

Hua Chao lowered her voice.

"Brother Yang, don't act rashly now. It seems that these officers and soldiers are well-trained regular troops. If you and I rush into the formation at will, we will surely die."

"Sister, they are just mortals! What's there to be afraid of? I don't believe that I can't kill a hundred or two hundred of them if I rush in."

Yang Shilin said in a serious tone without even turning his head.

"There are at least four to five thousand soldiers in front of us. What's the point of killing one or two hundred after we go in? Not only will we not be able to save the villagers, but our lives will also be wasted here."

Hua Chao still held Maomao's round ears tightly, but Maomao still didn't give up and kept trying hard to rush over.

In other words, it was Hua Chao who was holding it, otherwise no one else would be able to hold Maomao.

Suddenly, a eerie and terrifying duck voice was heard from the crowd, and the voice sounded exactly the same as that of the dead Wang Batian.

If Hua Chao had not seen Wang Batian die in front of his own eyes, he would have really thought that Wang Zhutou had been resurrected.

"Yang Shilin, and the vixen who killed my brother, today is the day you will die."

"Kill you and chop off your heads. I'll take them back as a sacrifice to my brother's soul."
