1940s: I supported my wife and sister-in-law by hunting.

Although it was bumpy and painful, it was a world of difference compared to riding a horse.

You have to be careful with the animals' energy when riding horses, so you can't run recklessly. You also have to feed them water and grass and let them rest.

You don't have to be lenient when driving. As long as the water tank doesn't boil over and there's enough fuel, you can just keep going along the railway track as fast as you can.

Two days later, the jeep sped along the dirt road and soon passed the territory of Jisi City, where he had previously stayed.

Chen Gaoshan stepped on the gas and sped straight toward Songyuan.

In the blink of an eye, the sun set and the sky turned gray.

Not far ahead, there was what looked like a small village.

Chen Gaoshan knew that if he continued on his journey, he would have to drive in the dark, which was unsafe in the desolate mountains and wilderness. So he simply parked the car on the side of the road, looked around to make sure no one was watching, and put the Willys Jeep into his spatial storage.

He planned to go into the village to stay overnight, just to find out about Eighth Master Gray's main force.

Ultimately, he came from within the team. After going around in circles for so long, he finally had to rejoin the team.

I wonder if Qian Zhuizi and Tie Suo, the eldest son of Uncle Changfa, who came out with me back then, had a smooth time as laborers, and whether they returned home safely.

He took out three sesame seed cakes from his spatial storage and ate them as he walked.

I had only walked a few steps towards the village when I suddenly heard a few loud banging sounds coming from inside.

It was the sound of gunfire.

Then came a cacophony of men and women screaming and yelling, a chaotic scene.

Chen Gaoshan forgot to chew the sesame seed cake in his mouth and cursed on the spot.

"Damn, this place without Eighth Master's Ash is a complete mess, full of bastards causing trouble everywhere."

These bastards dared to enter the village and commit evil deeds when no one was watching.

I'll never forgive these scoundrels in my life.

Today, I will act on behalf of Heaven and punish you.

He quickly stuffed the last bite of the sesame seed cake into his mouth.

He took out a Thompson submachine gun and held it in his hand, loading it with a 50-round drum magazine.

Holding the gun, he ran forward quickly.

Then they saw three men on horseback coming towards them, with a young woman tied across their backs. Damn, it was the Bearded Men coming to the village to smash up the kilns and harass the women.

"Stop right there, don't move!"

Chen Gaoshan flicked the safety with his finger and pulled the trigger.

"Da da da da da da".

Thomson truly lived up to his reputation as the Chicago Typewriter; his rate of fire was terrifyingly fast, and the gunshots were so dense they sounded like popping beans.

He deliberately kept the muzzle low, aiming only at the horse's legs, not daring to raise it too high for fear of accidentally injuring the women on horseback.

After a burst of gunfire, all three horses were hit and fell to the ground with a thud.

The three bearded men on horseback didn't even realize what was happening before they were thrown off their horses, landing face-first on the ground.

The three bearded men felt as if their internal organs were dislocated from the fall. They were in so much pain that they grimaced, but they didn't care about the pain and scrambled to their feet.

The burly man at the head of the group, with a face full of scars, was howling in pain and cursing.

"Fuck your ancestors for eight generations! Where the hell did you come from? Do you even know I'm the bald oligarch of Tazishan? You dare to meddle in my business? You're tired of living!"

Upon hearing this name, Chen Gaoshan...

The bald oligarch of Tazishan, his identity confirmed.

At that moment, the woman who had been snatched from the ground was still gagged, her hands were tied behind her back, and her body was rubbing against the ground, making muffled whimpering noises, trembling all over in fear.

The bandit with the mustache next to him reacted the fastest, immediately raising his pistol and aiming it at the bastard who had suddenly appeared, ready to fire.

The bound girl struggled to sit up from the ground.

"Women, get down."

Chen Gaoshan pulled the trigger again.

"Da da da da!"

Another burst of intense fire followed, with gun barrels locked onto the chests of three bandits.

The girl in red was so frightened that her legs went weak. She obeyed perfectly, immediately burying her head in the ground and lying down without daring to move.

The three bearded men were shot in the chest, their bodies stiffened, and one after another they collapsed to the ground with thuds.

The moment the bandit with the mustache fell, his eyes widened, and in a daze, he even grinned. In his hazy state, it was as if he saw his deceased mother from his hometown coming to take him to his final resting place.

Chen Gaoshan, holding his gun, stepped forward and glanced down at the ground.

Three horses lay on the ground, with several bags of grain that the bearded man had stolen nearby.

This horse is a real treasure; its meat is delicious when stewed. If I ever happen to encounter one, I'd definitely store it in my spatial storage to enjoy the meat slowly.

There was a frightened young woman standing nearby, so I had no choice but to let it go.

Of the three bearded men, one was right in the center of his mouth and died on the spot.

The other two missed vital organs; blood gushed from the holes in their chests, and they gasped for breath, their eyes fixed on the approaching man.

In their eyes, the man who suddenly appeared, holding a gun and expressionless, looked exactly like the Grim Reaper, the god of death.

Laozi's mind is really sharp; he immediately took out a dagger and stabbed the two panting men twice more in the heart.

"If I take care of you two, I'll have two more good deeds added to my list of merits. It'll be considered doing justice for Heaven."

Blood bubbles were rising from the throats of the two bearded men, and they managed to squeeze out half a sentence: "Fuck~~".

His head lolled to the side, and he kicked his legs and died.

Chen Gaoshan locked the safety on his submachine gun, fearing it might accidentally fire, then slung the gun over his shoulder, and knelt down in front of the girl.

As soon as you get close, you can smell a faint odor of urine.

Without a doubt, this little girl was so terrified of these bearded men that she wet herself.

Chen Gaoshan didn't mind.

"How are you? Can you still breathe? Say something, lean closer, your mouth is blocked."

As he spoke, he reached out and ripped the rag out of her mouth, then grabbed her arm and pulled her up to sit up straight.

Upon closer inspection...

It was too dark to see clearly just now, but this isn't some young woman at all; she's clearly just a little girl.

He looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, thin and small, and hadn't grown up at all.

With well-defined eyebrows and eyes, rosy lips and white teeth, she has a very good foundation and will be a good child when she grows up.

These bearded men are worse than animals. They don't even spare such a small child. They're just bastards with rotten pants playing with children.

But he could be considered a hero saving a damsel in distress, even though she was just a young girl who hadn't fully grown up yet.

Chen Gaoshan was completely terrified when he saw her staring blankly with a vacant look in her eyes. He patted her cheeks twice.

"Hey, snap out of it, speak up."

With just those two moments, the little girl shuddered, and her pent-up fear finally broke free, causing her to burst into loud sobs.

She cried her heart out, her eyes were red and swollen, snot bubbles hung from her mouth, and her lips kept trembling.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. All the bad guys are dead, no one can bully you anymore."

It took a long time for the little girl to stop crying, but she was still sobbing and staring at him with her big, wet eyes.

"Big brother, could you please untie the ropes binding my hands and legs...?"

"Oh dear, I completely forgot about that."

Chen Gaoshan quickly stepped forward and tore off the ropes binding her hands and feet in a few swift movements.

The rope was too tight, leaving red marks all over my wrists and ankles.

He watched as the little girl sat obediently on the ground for a long time without getting up.

"What happened? Are you injured? You can't stand up."

The little girl's face turned red, and she whimpered softly, "Big brother, my legs are numb. They've been tied up for too long, I can't move."

Chen Gaoshan bent down and pulled the person up.

The little girl's two thin legs were so weak that she trembled as she stood on the ground, unable to stand steadily at all.

"Can we walk? Okay, stop trying to carry me, I'll carry you."

It's normal for a little girl to wet herself in fright; she's much less smelly than those rough old men, so there's nothing to be ashamed of.

After saying that, he carried the little girl on his back and got up to walk into the village.

"Which room is yours? Show me."

As soon as he asked the question, the little girl, who had just calmed down, broke down again and burst into tears, clinging to his back.

"That one up ahead, the one with smoke and fire. Waaah, that's my house..."
