Rakshasi was actually a pitiful person. However, there was something she hated about this. She had received injuries, yet she had placed pain on others. This could not be said to be a crime.
Although it seemed like she didn't dare move, she was actually constantly looking for an opportunity to counterattack. When Rakshasi raised her dagger to cut Yang Fan's face, Yang Fan finally found an opportunity to make his move.
Rakshasi thought that he was just a small farmer, a lucky upstart who didn't even put Yang Fan in his eyes. As for what kind of counterattack, could he even compare to someone like her, who had received professional training?
However, just as Rakshasi's dagger left Yang Fan's neck, it was pushed back by Yang Fan and hit him squarely in the chest.
"Wow!"
Rakshasi coughed out a mouthful of blood on the spot and couldn't help but continuously retreat. Yang Fan also took the opportunity to leap forward, escaping Rakshasi's attack range. Next to him, the three bodyguards, who were like tigers eyeing their prey, immediately rushed over, wanting to capture Rakshasi.
The result was out of everyone's expectation. Rakshasi had actually cut a bodyguard's arm with her dagger even as she was injured. She rushed out of the encirclement and escaped into Snake Valley.
Yang Fan didn't expect Rakshasi to be so valiant. She actually dared to flee into Snake Valley, which was filled with a lot of miasma. If he let it go, she might be poisoned or even die.
Since she had run away, Yang Fan did not chase after her into Snake Valley. Entering there would be too dangerous. If she was bitten by a poisonous snake or absorbed by the miasma, she might not be able to get out.
With this, everyone no longer had any interest in sightseeing, especially Song Bo Wen and Wang Da Fu. They were no longer in a rush to find the Feng Shui Treasures. With Yang Fan leading the way, everyone returned with their heads hanging low.
Right before they arrived at the place where the wild boar was killed, Yang Fan led everyone in a circle. After so long, the wild boar's corpse might have attracted some kind of ferocious beast, and if they were to pass by, they might encounter danger.
When they arrived at the berth of the ship, Wang Da Fu immediately blew up. He saw three corpses on the boat, and all three of Wang Da Fu's bodyguards were dead.
The two bodyguards originally sent the other bodyguard who was bitten by the Many-Banded Krait back to Yang Tree Gully, but who knew that all three of them died on the boat, even the bodyguard who was poisoned by the snake didn't manage to escape.
"Rakshasi, fuck your mother! One day, I will personally chop off your four limbs and turn you into a human rod!"
Although the lives of the three bodyguards were not that important in his eyes, he had come out with him after all. He had died without knowing why, and he had not even been able to catch the murderer. To Wang Da Fu, this was the same as slapping him in the face.
With a flat-bottomed boat, the corpses of the three bodyguards could be directly transported back to Poplar Valley, and there was no need to specially call someone to carry them back into the mountain.
Because it was following the current, when they came over, eight people were rowing. The speed of the flatboat was similar to that of a normal person walking on the shore. When they returned, they lost three people, but the speed of the flatboat was even faster than when it came over.
When the flatboat returned to Poplar Creek with six living people and three corpses, it was already completely dark. Yang Fan's parents were worried, and the few subordinates he left with Song Wang and the village chief's group were waiting on the bank of Flower Creek.
It was unknown where the Village Head got a searchlight to shine on the water surface, but from afar, there were keen-eyed people who saw the boat sailing downriver. Everyone immediately cheered; if any of the philanthropists who invested in Yangshugou were to meet with an accident in the mountains, Yangshu would lose his face, and would lose face in the future.
However, when the flat boat arrived in front of them, the group of people could clearly see that there were only six people on board, leaving only three corpses behind. Immediately, there was complete silence.
When they entered the mountain, there were a total of nine people. Now that there were only six that came back, it meant that they had encountered some sort of danger, and a great one at that.
Otherwise, how could three big bodyguards die? Did they encounter a pack of wolves?
Can't? How many years had it been since he'd seen a pack of wolves in the mountains?
Or did he run into a tiger?
Tiger hadn't seen him in a few years. Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They knew that not only would they fail when investing in a donation, but there would also be a lot of trouble.
"Second Uncle, find a few strong young men to help carry them." Yang Fan didn't even get off the boat before he shouted to the village chief.
Even without the village chief Yang Guoqing's order, Song Bo Wen and Wang Da Fu's remaining men all surrounded him. The three dead men were their companions, they were exactly like a rabbit that had died a miserable death, and seeing their companions fall into such a miserable state, it would be strange if they felt good in their hearts.
Everyone carried the three bodyguards to the shore. The village head had already called people to go back and find a stretcher, and the mountain people would often fall and injure themselves. There were several stretchers prepared in the village.
In recent years, this situation was quite rare. In the past, when they could go hunting in the mountains, people in Yang Shuigou had encountered a lot of things like how many hunters brought back corpses from the mountains today. It was unknown how many hunters died in the mountains in the past, but not even half of them were brought back. Most of them were hidden in the mountains, and not even their corpses could be found.
After a while, three stretchers were brought in. The group parked the three bodyguards' bodies in the courtyard of the village committee. Chief Yang Guoqing had three Soul Lamps light up in front of the three corpses, indicating that they were to show the way for their souls.
He then arranged for the villagers to watch the night, not allowing any small animals like the weasels to get close to the corpses to prevent them from maligning.
According to the older generation, human corpses, especially those that had just died, especially those that had died quite miserably, once a small animal like a cat, dog, or mouse passed by, it would cause the corpse to be fraudulent, just like the zombies in the television, jumping around and sucking human blood. Although no one had ever seen a real zombie, but the rules could not be disregarded, and no one dared to act recklessly.
Wang Dafu even put on an act by burning incense for the three bodyguards and promising them a bunch of benefits in front of the remaining subordinates.
However, Yang believes that rather than showing such importance to those who are already dead, it would be better to give their families more pensions and take care of them rather than anything else.
Yang Fan had traveled with the two for a whole day, and had basically understood their personality. He knew that although Wang Da Fu looked sad, it was actually just a matter of face, so he didn't show it on his face.
Could it be that once a person had money, their kinship would slowly fade?
