"Five..."
Chu Mu silently recited this number in his heart.
It is unclear how many casualties there were during the inspection.
But where the thousand households were, the five heads piled up were clearly visible.
Obviously, the results of the previous wave of attacks and inspections were not as meager as Chu Mu had seen before.
At least five heads were cut off.
Of course, the battle loss ratio must be somewhat unsightly.
Chu Mu looked around, but his thoughts couldn't help but return to the violent storm-like offensive just now.
This is undoubtedly the first time in this life that I have faced someone with swords.
Although there are only eight swords!
but……
[Name: Chu Mu. 】
【Skill:
Basic knife skills (first glimpse into the door) 103/500]
[Spiritual radiance value: 59.3%]
Chu Mu looked at the light screen panel in his field of vision, his eyes moved slightly, and he was obviously surprised.
If he remembered correctly, just last night, his sword skill proficiency was still only 20. After practicing martial arts for more than half an hour this morning, his proficiency increased by three points.
And now...one hundred and three.
In other words, he was almost alive and dead just now. He withstood the boy's eight knives and gained 80 points of sword skill proficiency!
"Is it an explosion of potential between life and death?"
Chu Mu once again recalled the scene of the fight just now, and soon Chu Mu rejected this guess.
Chu Mu slowly raised the knife and tried to insert himself into the previous fight again. Slowly, Chu Mu seemed to notice it.
"Actual combat!"
Taking the role again, Chu Mu was sure that he could better face the young man's offensive.
This is not to say that his sword skills have improved greatly, but that his mentality has improved a lot after this short but extremely dangerous actual combat. It can even be said to have transformed.
It is human nature to fear death.
When people face weapons that can threaten their lives, they will also have instinctive fear. Fear of pain and fear of death are all instinctive.
After this actual combat, maybe he has not completely overcome these instincts, but... when he faces actual combat and the threat of life and death, he will definitely have a better mentality.
"The training of actual combat, the improvement of mentality..."
Chu Mu murmured to himself.
Without actual combat and just relying on imagination, he would never know what kind of threat it would be when facing the blade that was attacking him, and what kind of fear it would bring to him.
The most important thing is that he doesn't know what kind of instinctive reaction he will have under such threat and fear, and he doesn't know whether he can overcome these instinctive reactions.
If you haven't experienced this, all of that is just fantasy.
Even if he practices his sword skills to an extremely advanced level behind closed doors, as long as he has not experienced actual combat, it may be difficult for him to perform one or two of them.
Chu Mu waved his long sword. With the transformation of his mentality, his sword skills seemed to be smoother and more arbitrary.
"Qianhu has orders, stay alert and keep going!"
Chu Mu raised his head and looked around at the inspectors who were getting ready to set off before looking at Xu Yuan and the others beside him.
"Let's go."
Chu Mu took a long breath and looked into the dense forest, feeling a little more eager to try.
The team set off again, and only traveled a mile or two through the dense forest when they were attacked again.
However, this time, for the inspection team that went into the mountain, they had undoubtedly gained a lot of experience after experiencing several consecutive attacks, and they would not be as panicked as before when faced with a surprise attack.
In this way, although the result of the battle is not very good-looking, the attackers also left a considerable price.
There were nine attackers in total, but only three escaped in the end.
The young man who almost cost Chu Mu his life was seriously injured under the siege of Li Gang and several other skilled patrolmen, but was finally rescued by his accomplices.
This time, Chu Mu didn't have time to participate, but because he stayed out of the matter, he could see it clearly.
Several corps leaders were standing in line, most of them had some ability. The few strong men following Qianhu were all very skilled.
He Ping, one of the hundreds of households, has not seen him take action, so I don't know what his background is.
Obviously, not everyone is just dawdling during the inspection, and there are also many who are truly capable.
The rest of the journey will undoubtedly be calm.
Except for a few unlucky ones who were injured by traps, the others arrived outside Qili Village smoothly.
It was already dark, and even with the flickering light of the torches, it was difficult to see clearly the village shrouded in darkness.
Under Huhe's order, the patrols also stepped into the village one after another.
"Brother Mu, how do I feel that everyone in this village has run away?"
Xu Yuan leaned next to Chu Mu, scratched his head and said.
"It's not a feeling. Otherwise, why do you think those people who went up the mountain just now attacked us desperately? Isn't it just to delay time?"
"If you don't run away, why don't you stay and fight us?"
Even though he said this, Chu Mu did not relax his vigilance and looked around by the flickering light of the torch.
As he saw in the geography, Qili Village was indeed not big. The village was built along the mountain, forming a slope shape.
Dozens of houses are scattered in twos and threes on this hillside. If you look for a good view, you can get an overview of the entire village.
The open doors of the houses on the roadside and the debris scattered on the ground undoubtedly do not mean that the people in this village are walking in a hurry!
"Search door to door!"
"Don't even let me go to the toilet!"
Chu Mu glanced at He Ping who was standing at the entrance of the village shouting, and then turned his eyes to the yard in front of him.
A courtyard wall made of dirt surrounds the entire courtyard, and the courtyard door woven with bamboo pieces is open. Standing at the door, you can get a general view of the scenery in the courtyard through the flickering firelight.
After just a glance, Chu Mu couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly walked into the courtyard.
The furnishings in the courtyard are very simple. There is a mulberry tree planted on one side of the courtyard, a lounge chair under the tree, and a small stone table next to it.
On the other side of the yard, there is a row of wooden dummies, a sandbag array, and piles of rocks of different sizes in the corner, which are obviously used for beating the energy.
The ground in the courtyard is full of potholes, and it looks like they are the traces left by years of martial arts training.
Such a scene is undoubtedly unusual in this small mountain village.
Subconsciously, Chu Mu simulated the scene in the courtyard in his mind.
Someone was lying leisurely under the mulberry tree, drinking tea and tasting wine.
A group of teenagers are working hard on this side and practicing martial arts.
All this seems to correspond to reality.
We were attacked several times just now, and most of the attackers were very skilled and young.
How could there be so many extraordinary people in a small mountain village?
If the Orions were so powerful, then Qili Village wouldn't be a small mountain village with a population of only a few dozen households.
It was obvious that someone had taught the young people in the village martial arts.
Just like the scene Chu Mu simulated just now.
Xia uses force to break the ban!
If you are very capable, how can you let others manipulate you?
That’s why there was this violent resistance to the conscription and the killing of patrol inspectors...
It's just...where can such a capable person come from in this small mountain village?
