Li Hu immediately extinguished the lights in the watchtower, so that people would not notice the situation here.

Li Chongjiu looked into the distance again and saw a county magistrate named Yin standing among the crowded people, surrounded by several officers and soldiers. The man was wearing white clothes, holding a scroll in his hand and pointed at the mountain village. Behind him were nearly a hundred strong soldiers holding torches, illuminating the surroundings.

The other party is so arrogant that he stands like this without armor. He can kill him with an arrow. He can kill him with one arrow. If he captures the thief, he will first capture the king. If he shoots this person, the officers and soldiers will retreat without fighting.

Although Li Chongjiu had this idea in his heart, the distance was about 120 steps. Even if the second stone bow was shot to this distance, he would be powerless. If the third stone bow was shot, it would be OK, but he was not satisfied with it, but he had to try it.

Strength and precision are a mutually restrictive relationship in bowing. If you pursue strength, accuracy cannot be guaranteed. If you pursue accuracy, you must not choose a strong bow with strength that exceeds your own. Therefore, in terms of this distance, Li Chongjiu's determination to hit the other party is not high.

Even in the past ten days, he has been working hard to exercise his arm strength and bow skills. He has made several dumbbells and exercised every day, and he has been confident that he has completely integrated.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu took out the three stone bow from the arch bag behind his back, pulled it for a momentum, then put on the copper ring on the thumb of his right hand, and then skillfully pulled out a sharp four-sided arrow from the quiver. The arrow trembled slightly in the fine wind. After Li Chongjiu breathed evenly, he put the arrow on the bowstring, shouted secretly, his face turned red, and his arms began to inject strength into the bow, and began to pull the bow.

The curve of the bow string was deformed bit by bit, and Li Chongjiu put all his strength into practice. If he was too strong, he could not guarantee accuracy. This good bow made by the Ministry of Works of the Great Sui Dynasty also made a low sound in Li Chongjiu's hands.

The three stone bow still exceeded his load, so even if he shot an arrow, he was unable to shoot the second arrow. After enduring it, Li Chongjiu held his breath and the bowstring vibrated.

Bang!

The bowstring collapses.

The arrowhead turned into a stream of light in the darkness, heading straight towards the scholar in white like lightning.

Under the torch, the scholar in white was still holding the book, still smiling between the corners of his lips, suddenly raised his eyes and his eyes were cold.

At this time, Li Chongjiu's arrow came as if it was breaking through the wind. The arrow was exactly the same as the other party's throat. Just as the speed was fast, the scholar in white had no intention of avoiding it, and drew out his subordinate's sword with his backhand.

A cold light flashed, and the scholar in white actually wanted to shoot an arrow with a knife.

The bandits were stunned, and no one expected this. It seemed that the weak scholar in white was so skilled.

bite!

With a crisp sound, the scholar's hands sank slightly.

The white-clothed scholar's face changed slightly, and he let out a soft voice. The arrow shot by Li Chongjiu was not tilted. It was just a deviation from an angle. With a muffled groan, a team next to the white-clothed scholar's chest was hit by an arrow.

Seeing this change, the Sui army on all sides shouted and raised the oars and stepped forward. The scholar in white squatted down and saw that the iron armor on the team's chest was actually penetrated by arrows, and he was not sure about his life and death.

The scholar glanced at the team's injury, then looked up at the Louwang Tower where the arrow was shot, and said coldly: "A hundred steps away, the arrows could penetrate the iron armor. It must be a strong bow with more than three stones."

This team is an officer. Unlike the local soldiers wearing leather armor, they are wearing two armors and iron armor. At such a long distance, their strength is still strong and they can actually shoot through iron armor, which is necessary for the Three Stone Bow.

"Avenge me!"

Just now, the team was caught up, and he reached out and grabbed it, roared and turned his head to die.

Several rural soldiers immediately cried out in tears: "Brother Gao! Brother Gao!"

"Okay! OK! OK!"

Seeing the scene, the scholar in white said three good words in a row, and instead of anger, he smiled and said, "It's interesting. I didn't expect that there was such a good archer in a small village."

“High travel rate!”

"The last one is here!" The iron armor sounded and an officer stood up.

"Slay off the right palm of the sharpshooter and give it to me."

A cruel smile appeared on the officer's face and said, "I will obey the order."

The scholar in white paced and said, "Since ancient times, heroes violated the ban with martial arts, Confucians used literary methods to disrupt the law. Humph, in a small place, relying on some means, they dared not to accept Wang Hua and should be wiped out!"

After saying that, the scholar in white threw Zuo Zhuan to the ground and said with a murderous look on his face.

"It's almost."

Su Su and Sun Erniang both sighed. At the moment, Li Chongjiu smiled slightly, and now half of his arms were all soft and numb.

On the other hand, after being attacked by Li Chongjiu's archery technique, the Sui army had already set up giant oars, so that Li Chongjiu no longer had the chance to shoot again.

Seeing that Li Chongjiu was very good at archery, Li Hu said, "Xiaojiu, this arrow shot well is enough to destroy the aura of officers and soldiers."

"They have avenged their revenge for He Laosan and Zhou Qijin."

"Hmph, it's a pity that the dog official was not shot to death, so that's what I'm sorry for." Sun Erniang shouted.

Li Chongjiu looked at the man in white, and happened to be looking at his own lookout building.

Confucian scholar, county magistrate, martial arts master, this person is a powerful opponent. Although he is in the dark, Li Chongjiu felt that the other party had clearly seen him. The other party's eyes were like blades. The two looked at each other for a while, and suddenly he shot out the arrow, broke it in front of him, and threw it on the ground.

"Shut the arrow and swore, it seems that this person will not give up!"

Li Chongjiu's eyes sterned.

At this time, Wang Mahan said, "You can't shoot this dog official to death. If the outer wall collapses, the enemy can take advantage of the opportunity to attack the mountain village. At that time, you can only fight to the death."

"No, we have a backup plan." Li Chongjiu shook his head and said.

"Young leader, what are your opinions?" Su Su and Sun Erniang asked together.

Li Chongjiu said, "Officers and soldiers can form formations to fight on the flat ground, and the place where they fight is far stronger. But if they enter the village, the formation is not easy to unfold, and we can fight with them with the convenience of the territorial advantage."

Li Hu nodded and said, "Xiao Jiu's words are reasonable, that's exactly what it means."

Su Su, Sun Erniang, and Wang Mahan all nodded together. They suddenly realized that the young leader seemed to have become the same after he got sick this time. If he had been reckless in the past, he would have only tried to fight to the death like Wang Mahan, but now he is brave and resourceful and decisive.

Li Chongjiu said immediately: "Dad, at this moment, there is no need to hide it. There are other secret passages in the mountain village, where you can escape."

As the saying goes, there are three holes in the cunning rabbit. Li Chongjiu doesn’t believe it. There is only one exit for a seven thousand village. Li Hu nodded and said, “Yes, there is a hidden and dangerous road in the back mountain that can be walked, but you have to climb thirty feet of rock, and only one person can be there.”

When everyone heard that the escape route was on the cliff behind Juyi Hall, it was really unexpected and they were all very happy.

"But," Li Hu repeated, "Now the gate is about to be broken. It is time to climb thirty feet of mountain rock, and only one person can pass through it. It takes at least half a day for these more than 80 brothers. It is too late to hurry."

Li Chongjiu said immediately: "It's so easy. There are still some arrangements in the copycat. I'll stop the officers and soldiers here. For other people, Dad can leave the copycat with them from the cableway."

When Li Hu saw that Li Chongjiu was willing to leave behind the rear, he was even relieved and moved.

He turned his back and didn't want his son to see the tears from the corners of his eyes. He immediately said, "Tell all brothers that everyone is the only one in the family, and the young ones among the brothers will follow me to the Juyi Hall."

The fire burned all night in Qiqian Village. The huge wood wall of the mountain village finally collapsed under the burning of the fire. The defense hole of the outer edge of Qiqian Village opened. The white-clothed scholar looked at the scene of smoke and dust in front of him and said, "I want to see what other plans do these bandits have."

"Yin Ming Mansion, don't be in danger lightly. I see that the bandits suddenly retreated into the mountain village and there must be some tricks." Gao Lu advised.

The scholar in white laughed and said, "We are far away and they have more than one. Even if there are tricks, why not be afraid of it? You should quickly break through the clan. Don't give them a chance to think about it. If they are allowed to see through the identity of the Li family, see through the purpose of our attack on the clan, and use it to threaten us, it would be troublesome."

The scholar in white was considered a person with complete thoughts, but he never expected that Li Zhiwan had been let go by Li Chongjiu. At this moment, it was getting late and Shi Ai County was already closed. However, after Xuanjia Jingqi told him that it was the Li family in Longxi, the local minor officials were trembling and immediately opened the city gate. In the Great Sui Dynasty, there were not many minor officials who could face the powerful and noble people.

Now surrounded by the Xuanjia Jingqi, Li Zhiwan has already entered Shiai County. The leader of the Xuanjia Jingqi, who was standing beside him, said to Li Sanniang: "Miss, the county magistrate Yin Kaishan here, and I have old family, and I am the master of the great man. Will you go and have a visit?"

Li Zhiwan held the reins and controlled the speed of the horse and said, "We still have important things, so we should not delay it. I think the magistrate of Yin will not be surprised."

"Yes," the leader of the Xuanjia Jingqin nodded, and then said again, "Miss, in my opinion, the bandits in the seven thousand villages are just a group of mobs."

"If you want to accept the incompetent person who is so vain and want to accept it rashly, the master may feel unhappy. I can't stand the magistrate of Yin County here and ask him to take care of him first and find a background."

Li Zhi said politely: "No need to do this. I can tell whether there is talent or not. You don't need to worry. I will take care of this matter alone. Daddy will have to tell you."

"It all depends on the lady." The leader of the Xuanjia Jingqin saw Li Zhiwan say this and no longer say anything.

The status of women in the Sui Dynasty was not much inferior to that of men. Moreover, Li Zhiwan was Li Yuan's legitimate daughter. Both Li Yuan and two brothers loved her very much. Therefore, the leader of the Xuanjia Jingqi did not dare to disagree with Li Zhiwan's intentions at all.

Just now, a servant came on a horse and said to Li Zhi politely: "Miss, the magistrate of Yin County heard that you had captured by the seven thousand villages, and he had already brought three hundred township soldiers to break the village!"

"What?" Li Zhiwan stopped.
