Streamer V: "Don't worry! Letting go of a fish allows more stupid fish to get hooked!" She snorted, jumped down, and landed on a protruding trunk, then leaned to the left slightly.

The enemies were out there, but Jiang pengji was hidden in the darkness. She took the initiative in her hand. Owing to the high mountains and deep woods of Hejian County, it was easy to find a good place to hide. Besides, Jiang Pengji knew how to shuttle through forests without leaving any trace. She was like a fish in the sea; it was easy and relaxing.

"Not good! Not good! Boss, enemy attack!" The surviving follower rushed to the crowd in a panic, out of breath. His lips were pale, and he constantly yelled, "Enemy attack! Two of our people just got killed!"

What? Enemy attack? Two people got killed?

The leader abruptly stood up from the folding stool. He took two quick steps forward, approached the surviving follower, and shouted, "What enemy?"

The follower gasped until he could finally speak clearly, then stated, "I just fetched water with the other two people by a pond. Suddenly, two black figures flashed by and attacked us with arrows… We accidentally treated it lightly. The other two… got impaled through the head and now are dead!"

"Dead?" The leader glowered out of shock. Immediately afterward, a fiery anger overwhelmed him, for the people he had brought there had been killed, and it had to have been done by the bandits of Hejian County. This had to have been done by the bandits near the river. How dare they? "And you just came back?"

The surviving follower cried and said, "Boss, I also wanted to fight with the two animals and get revenge for them. But… but, I had to keep myself safe to tell you the news! They couldn't die in vain. If someone else knew that members of our Meng family were killed by two bandits, it would humiliate our family."

The leader listened to the follower, stone-faced. He clenched his fists and took out his whip abruptly. He was fully irritated!

"Those rabbles have gone too far!" The leader gritted his teeth in anger. He then counted 20 people. "Let's go get revenge for our brothers!"

Jiang Pengji stopped suppressing her five senses. After hearing the dialogue between them from a long distance, she couldn't help but smile.

At the convenience of the System, the audience in the live streaming room could clearly hear the conversations as well, and suddenly, the screen was covered with tons of mocking faces.

Gumiemie: "Good imagination! He talks as if he really saw that! He didn't even know where the streamer was… How could he declare that he saw two figures? Is it because the streamer shot two arrows at one time? Laughable logic!"

Laosiji Lianmeng: "If the streamer shoot three arrows at one time, would they say that there were five people?"

Breeze-Like Words: "He had to exaggerate the situation! If he didn't, how could he explain him being a coward? He almost peed his pants, and he left his brothers' bodies there. He's too young. If he had enough experience, he would have said that there was a group of bandits fighting him, but he finally managed to escape after a fierce fight due to his excellent martial art skills…"

Dajia Yiqi Julizi: "Hahaha, the comment of the people above really convinced me!"

Jiang Pengji was waiting in a pleasant mood. Although she was not used to using the bows and arrows of the ancient times, it worked the same way as sneak attacks did.

She preferred shooting in different places while she moved to a fixed-point sniper. Bows and arrows couldn't be compared with sniper rifles, for the former had a lower speed and a less destructive power. Staying in one place would tell the enemy where she was.

Streamer V: "@Laosiji Lianmeng, I think your opinion can be adopted."

Jiang Pengji pulled out three arrows from the arrow quiver and drew the bow to the limit. She stayed there motionless, her sharp eyes partially closed as she waited for the best time. Five people were left there to guard the horses and the luggage. They seemed to be standing in a loose pattern, but were actually on high alert.

The surviving young man was left there. He had run around in a panic before, and he had accidentally fallen onto the ground two times. He looked extremely embarrassed.

One of his companions tried to comfort him. "Look at you! How could two bandits make you so scared? You see, our leader has already brought our people over. Once our leader wants to get revenge for our brothers, he will kill all the bandits of a whole village."

The surviving follower was still trembling. He had mud on his forehead, and blood kept oozing out of his head and mixing with the mud. He reluctantly raised the corners of his mouth, but a black shadow blocked the sunlight off his head when he was about to thank that companion.

The next second, a warm, heavy item fell on him. He was unprepared.

Warm, scarlet red blood dripped on his face and almost into his eyes.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

Due to their standing pattern, Jiang Pengji couldn't shoot two arrows at one time. It was difficult to kill two people with one arrow, so she shot continuously at a very fast speed.

"Enemy… enemy… enemy attack!" The follower raised his hand to push away the dead body of his companion who had been impaled through the brain. Brightness returned to his sight again; however, there were four more dead bodies of his other companions who had no time to react before they were killed. The horses quietly grazed nearby, not panicked at all.

It seemed that the four arrows that had just taken their lives flew out of nowhere, without a trace of the murderer!

Jiang Pengji, gratified, glanced at the expression of the almost collapsed follower. A sudden light flashed in her eyes, then she turned back to the previous pool.

At that point, the leader had already led his people to the pool where the incident had just happened. Two bodies floated on the pool, lonely. The blood had dyed the water's surface red. The two arrows piercing their brains were still there. The leader turned black in the face, then let his people walk forward to gather the bodies.

He raised his hand to pull out one of the arrows, regardless of the colorful liquid splashing on his body.

He turned the arrow over, but he didn't see any special personal marks. It seems that they really were killed by bandits!

The leader pondered for a moment and said, "Go and check around to see if there are any traces of anyone…"

The result was regrettable. It seemed that the two people who had attacked them were footless ghosts. No footprints or traces of human activity were left on the ground. The leader couldn't believe that, so he went to check for himself. But what they had said was the truth!

At that point, some people couldn't help but whisper, "He said that he saw two black shadows… Maybe they are ghost shadows!"

"Shut up. How could ghosts appear during the daytime?"

Although some people refuted that, everyone felt scared in their hearts. At that time, a cool breeze blew through the woods, which was horribly terrifying.

"Boss, there is no evidence found here, nor are there traces of bandits… Do we still have to continue?"

The leader pinched an arrow, breaking it. Seemingly, he couldn't figure out how the enemies killed two people and left no traces.

Ghosts? Oh, only stupid people would believe that.

The leader didn't give up at first, but after another check, he had to go back.

A total of 28 good horses are still in their original places. If we were robbed, we would lose so much… Wait!

The leader suddenly stopped his footsteps and shouted, "Hell! We've been lured away from our base on purpose!"
