From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

In less than 15 minutes, all 10,000 jin of grain were gone, not a single grain of rice was left.

Although they had been starving for more than ten days, each person could not eat more than two kilograms of rice. Many people ate while stuffing their pockets, because they were really afraid of being hungry.

"Chen Shi".

Seeing the group of rebels who were full and satisfied, Shen Bi became increasingly worried and couldn't help but tighten his grip on Chen Shi's hand.

Chen Shi's expression was solemn, and he didn't speak; in truth, he wasn't sure either.

On the contrary, the little nun Ruru had a smile on her face and no fear in her eyes.

"This feels so good!"

One of the rebel generals patted his stomach with satisfaction, but the next moment, his face suddenly turned sinister, and he pointed his long sword at Chen Shi and shouted.

"Kill them all!"

"Chen Shi!"

Shen Bi's expression changed drastically in an instant, and he instinctively tried to run away.

Chen Shi frowned, grasped Chen Bi's hand, and remained standing still.

kill……

The five thousand rebel soldiers, who were also already full, were taken aback upon hearing this.

Who to kill?

The general said he wanted to kill the man who had just given them food.

There are many ungrateful people in this world, but these so-called rebels were originally just ordinary people, honest people who lived a cowardly life.

The feeling of hunger is truly unbearable. Just when they were on the verge of starvation, Chen Shi gave them a full meal.

As a cowardly and honest man, I felt really guilty that they had picked up a knife and killed Chen Shi, who had given us food, as soon as they put down their bowls.

For a moment, the five thousand rebel soldiers hesitated and stood still.

"Chen Shi! Let's run!"

The fact that these rebels hesitated greatly surprised Shen Bi. Then, his face lit up with excitement, and he urged them on again.

Take this opportunity to run; you might still be able to escape.

Chen Shi remained serious, releasing Chen Bi's hand, but instead of running, he took a few steps toward the rebels.

"Have you all eaten?"

With his gaze sweeping over the five thousand rebel soldiers, Chen Shi asked a question with a smile.

The rebels nodded subconsciously, their faces showing satisfaction.

I'm full, so full, it feels so good to be full.

"You think you can rebel after you've eaten your fill?"

Chen Shi suddenly looked serious and asked a question loudly again.

The rebels, who had just been smiling, were suddenly stunned, and their expressions turned sad.

If people can eat their fill, who would want to rebel?

In fact, if given the chance to choose again, they would never act impulsively and join the rebels again.

Previously, they were obedient subjects who went hungry, but now that they have joined the "righteous army," the Heavenly General has not fulfilled his previous promise to provide them with enough to eat. Instead, their lives may be in danger at any moment.

No, they'll lose their lives sooner or later.

Many people have already seen through this; if they continue down this path to the bitter end, they will inevitably perish somewhere sooner or later.

"What are you doing! Hear my order, kill him!"

Sensing something was amiss, the general shouted the order again.

But the rebels stood still, and no one moved.

"Now! I can give you a chance to choose again!"

Chen Shi looked at everyone and said directly.

"You may disperse on the spot and return to your hometowns. I will pretend I never saw you here! Furthermore, I will give each of you one tael of silver so that you can get through this famine year."

"Kill him! Kill him now!"

Upon hearing Chen Shi's words, the general's expression changed drastically, and he pointed at Chen Shi with a frantic look on his face, shouting.

But nobody moved.

"A chance to choose again?"

"I can go home! Waaah, he can let me go home!"

"He said he'd give me one tael of silver, one tael of silver! That way, my wife and children won't starve to death! Ah! They won't starve to death!"

……

In an instant, the rebel army was thrown into chaos.

Everyone was initially incredulous, then overjoyed, and finally burst into tears.

They had already fallen into an abyss, doomed forever, but now someone has reached out to pull them out!

Moreover, their parents, wives, and children could also survive. As men and the pillars of their families, many of them were not afraid of hardship or death, but they could not bear to see their wives and children suffer from hunger.

"My benefactor! My savior who rescued me from suffering!"

"May the Heavenly Venerable bestow blessings, and may your holy virtue shine forth! May the Emperor of Heaven and the Earth grant boundless grace!"

In an instant, almost all the rebels knelt on the ground, bowing and worshipping Chen Shi while shouting loudly.

"You bastards! Who are you worshipping! What are you talking about! The Heavenly Venerable General is clearly right here!"

The general was furious, shouting repeatedly and subconsciously pointing to one side.

Among the crowd, only a dozen or so people did not kneel. Besides the general, there were more than ten others not far away. Chen Shi's sharp eyes suddenly turned to look.

"idiot!"

Among the dozen or so people, a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes suddenly changed his expression and angrily rebuked the general.

Chen Shi's eyes twitched violently, then he revealed a cold smile.

No wonder there are so many people. I never expected that General Tianzun would be here too!

"Everyone line up and go over there to collect your silver!"

Chen Shi stared intently at the dozen or so men and said something to the rebels.

"Go home and live a peaceful life."

"Amitabha Buddha, come with us."

Ruru softly uttered a Buddhist chant, then led the seventeen heavily armored infantrymen to another location.

The rebels then got up from the ground and obediently followed.

Most of them were honest people who had been timid and submissive for half their lives.

Of course, there must have been some wicked people among them, who were also calculating in their hearts that if each person gave one tael of silver, wouldn't that amount to five thousand taels?

Wealth can be very tempting.

But who would dare to act recklessly at this time?

The vast majority of rebels only wanted that one or two taels of silver so they could go home and live a peaceful life. If anyone caused any trouble at this time, they might be torn to pieces by the crowd!

In the blink of an eye, only a dozen or so people remained at the exit of Blade Ridge Valley.

They were originally surrounded by a large army, but now they were all alone. They were all startled and their faces showed panic.

At the same time, they tightly protected the Heavenly Venerable General in the middle, and stared at Chen Shi with tense expressions.

But they did not act immediately.

They dared not act, fearing that if they took action against Chen Shi, the rebels who had already been bribed would turn against them and kill them.

Similarly, Chen Shi didn't dare to make a move.

He had only temporarily calmed the rebels down. He didn't know how much prestige General Tianzun held among the rebels, and he couldn't be sure if they would rebel again.

Both sides remained motionless, waiting for the rebels to finish collecting their money and leave.

Some people took the silver and ran away, as if they would be mistaken for rebels if they were too slow. Others would turn to Chen Shi, kowtow several times, and then leave.

Although there were over five thousand people, they were divided into more than a dozen teams, with only three hundred people in each team. They would take the silver and leave; how much time could they possibly spend there?

In about fifteen minutes, the five thousand rebels scattered like birds and beasts, and not a single person could be seen around them.

"Amitabha Buddha, this is truly auspicious."

The killing was averted, and the young nun turned to Chen Shi with her hands clasped together and a joyful expression on her face.

Chen Shi's merits are immeasurable!

"Let's do it!"

Just then, Chen Shi let out a low shout, and his blood energy instantly solidified, rushing straight towards the last dozen or so people.
