The 41st Mutual Assistance (Seeking Recommendation Votes)

  The originally calm Shi family village is now tense and oppressive, with the bandits from Juyin Mountain surrounding the villagers, while their leader Jinshan is competing with Drumming Ants' Shi Yan.

  As for Ximen Qing, he was sitting on his horse, hiding in the darkness. Originally, Ximen Qing wanted to lend a hand, but he didn't expect Shi Yan to appear. Thinking that he wanted to see how Shi Yan would perform, Ximen Qing hid himself, preparing to watch him solve it, and if things weren't going well, he could also come out to assist at the critical moment.

  Watching Shi Xiu haggle with Jinshan, Ximen Qing thought to himself: "Shi Xiu, the 107th general of Liangshan, is not great at martial arts, but his lightness skills are excellent. He can climb high and walk on walls, steal from tombs and commit crimes. Although he's a bit cunning, he's also loyal and righteous, and very chivalrous to friends. Let's see how he handles this situation. If he can't handle it, I'll step in and help!"

  ······

  At this time, Shi Qian said to Jinshan: "Jinshan, have you thought it through? Are you going to take away these 2,000 taels and turn hostility into friendship, making a big deal small? Or do you really want to fight? If you destroy our Shi family village, I'll find you to avenge and make sure Jinshan has no wealth to gain!"

  Jinshan smiled and said with a hint of ferocity on his face, "Alright, I'll accept these 2,000 taels in consideration of your face!"

  Shi Qian was overjoyed in his heart and secretly let out a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Jinshan would not agree, and if that happened, it would be troublesome for the whole village. Shi Qian said: "Good, but you have to promise me, Jinshan, that you won't come to make things difficult for our village again!"

  This time Shi Qian returned home was only temporary and couldn't stay for long. If he waited until he left, Jin Shan came again, what would be good?

  When he heard Jinshan's words, the eyelids that had been drooping suddenly lifted, and a playful and sinister glint flashed in his eyes. He chuckled and said: "From now on, it's not impossible for us to stop causing trouble for the Shi family village, as long as our two families become relatives. At that time, I, Jinshan, will not only not make things difficult for the Shi family village, but also help you. What do you think? Heh heh, you just need to let Wu Yaotou marry me and that's it!"

  As soon as Jinshan finished speaking, a woman behind the village head of the Shi family suddenly stood up, her face flushed with anger, pointing at Jinshan and shouting: "I would rather die than marry you as a concubine!"

  Jinshan already has a wife and five concubines, all of whom were women he had seized. Now he has set his sights on Wu Yutou, and evil intentions have arisen in his mind.

  At this time, the Baozheng also hurriedly pulled Five Yatou and hastily saluted Jinshan with his hands together, pleading: "Your Majesty spare my life, Your Majesty spare my life! My daughter is stubborn by nature, please forgive her! Your Majesty show mercy, I only have this one daughter, please show mercy!"

  "What? Unwilling? Dare to look down on me, are you looking for death?" Jinshan was suddenly furious and angrily said to Shixian: "Shixian, this is not that I don't want to do it, but the people of your Tim Village are too arrogant, without any manner of discussing business, too uncooperative!"

  Shi Qian was also helpless. Wu Yaotou and he still had some relatives, and he didn't want Wu Yaotou to marry Jinshan either, which would ruin her whole life. But what could be done? Shi Qian was completely at a loss!

  When he saw the time, Yi's face was bitter, Jinshan was secretly pleased in his heart, and he said in a low voice: "Hmph, how good is your light work? Dare to hit Laozi's attention, it's really looking for death! Laozi came today just for Wu Yaotou, tsk, such a beautiful girl, how can Laozi give up! Hahaha..."

  Jinshan let out a loud roar and said, "Come on, take Wu Yaotou away for me, lock her up in the mountain as my sixth concubine, haha, from now on, Shigu Village will be our Jinshan family's relatives!"

  "Good!" The little henchmen under him were extremely excited, shouting loudly as they dismounted their horses and rushed towards Wu Yanzhu.

  At this time, in the darkness, Ximen Qing's stone was ready, and it would only take two breaths to knock down Jinshan and all his accomplices, and also destroy their foundation, making them powerless to harm people again. However, Ximen Qing was waiting for Shi Yan's reaction, wanting to see whether Shi Yan would give up Wu Yutou to save the whole village or rescue Wu Yutou and fight Jinshan to the death!

  Fortunately, Shi Yan didn't disappoint Ximen Qing!

  Just as Xiao Qiang was about to kick down the Bao Zheng and grab Wu Ya Tou, Shi Qian let out a loud roar, and his body suddenly turned around and floated in front of Bao Zheng and Wu Ya Tou. He shouted angrily: "Get out! I dare anyone to try! Jin Shan, today even if I die, I won't let you harm anyone! Tonight, I will protect everyone here! Although I, Shi Qian, am not a loyal or righteous person, and my reputation is not good, but today I will show off once. Who dares to come!"

  At this time, Shi Chongrui was furious and had a heroic spirit!

  Jinshan was furious in his heart, immediately picked up the knife and stood up, shouting: "Good, you don't drink good wine, drink punishment wine. That old man will destroy you, then slaughter you..."

  Just as Jinshan was about to finish his roar, he suddenly stopped and fell straight to the ground with a look of terror on his face, as if he had seen a ghost.

  The other bandits were also shocked and immediately rushed to surround him, helping Jinshan up and hastily asking: "Leader, leader, what's wrong? What's wrong?"

  Just then, a rustling sound suddenly arose, as if the spirits were wailing incessantly. The little rascals cried out one after another and fell to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably, as if possessed by evil spirits.

  Shi Qian secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and cautiously looked around.

  The villagers of the village were all fearful in their hearts and huddled closer together.

  Bao Zheng's face trembled with fear, and he muttered to himself: "This...this...could it be that the gods have descended to help us subdue these mountain bandits?"

  It was Wu Yutou who had the courage to shout: "May I ask which hero has lent a helping hand? Shi Wei is willing to be a slave or servant, and repay the kindness of saving my life!"

  "Tap tap tap..."

  At this time, the sound of horseshoes slowly echoed, and Ximen Qing rode a horse with a smile from the dark night.

  Seeing Ximen Qing's appearance, Shi Wei's face suddenly turned red, and she slightly lowered her head in embarrassment. Although she was bold and strong-willed, she was also a shy young girl. Seeing that her lifesaver was such a handsome young man, how could she not feel embarrassed at the tender age of spring?

  At that time, Shi Qian hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands in gratitude: "Thank you, young hero, for your help. I, Shi Qian, am eternally grateful!"

  Having said that, he bowed his hands and paid respects.

  Shi Qian is not foolish, but rather very clever. With so many years of experience in the jianghu, he has long known who are the big shots and who are the clowns. At such a young age, he can already defeat Jinshan and twenty mountain bandits with his magical skills, showing just how powerful his martial arts abilities are!

  Ximen Qing hastily dismounted his horse and hurriedly helped up Shi Yan. "Haha, Brother Shi, you're seriously injured! When one sees injustice on the road, they should draw their sword to assist. When out of town, one should help each other. Brother Shi, quickly get up!"

  After finishing, Ximen Qing said to the head of the village and other villagers: "Old man, fellow villagers, these mountain bandits have been subdued by me, you don't need to be afraid. Old man, just send someone to find a rope to tie up these mountain bandits!"

  The village head hastily replied, directing a few honest men to bind the mountain bandits together, and then said with a delighted face: "Good good good, little brother, thank you, you are the lifesaver of our Shimiao Village!"

  Shi Qian smiled and said: "Big Brother, I think it's better to go into the village and treat our benefactor well, rather than standing here and delaying them."

  "Ah, ah, ah, little benefactor, please come in!" The village head hurriedly nodded and smiled, leading Ximen Qing into the village, followed by villagers with smiling faces.

  As stated!
