Reborn as a Cube Man in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 86 Encountering the Path of Light

After arranging things in the village, Miao Zhiming led Wu Zhen, Wei Shi, Liu Ping, Liu Qi, and another twenty or thirty militiamen, armed with wooden swords and each carrying an iron sword they had picked up from the bandits, and left Liu Family Village with large and small bags on their backs.

The iron sword was for deterrence. From the refugees, they also learned that things were different now; the outside world was in complete chaos.

Who knows, bandits might jump out halfway there; those people have no idea of ​​the power of this wooden sword.

Those militiamen, having experienced last night's battle, were already familiar with combat methods and were comparable to veterans.

Don't underestimate these twenty or thirty people; even conservatively estimated, they can fight against an enemy four or five times their size without being at a disadvantage.

Their mad dog-like fighting style alone was enough to deter the bandits from advancing after they had suffered some losses.

Ultimately, most of those bandits were just ordinary people a few days ago. They didn't even dare to confront the soldiers in the garrison directly, and only dared to kill the unarmed and pitiful people in the villages.

They're just a bunch of bullies who pick on the weak and fear the strong!

The ranks were completely silent, filled with a somber atmosphere. Everyone stood tall with serious expressions, marching like a regular army.

For their God is with them.

Soon, Bai Li and the others reached the edge of the world. He looked out at the seemingly peaceful but actually dangerous wasteland.

"I'll see you off here," Bai Li instructed Miao Zhiming and the others. "Be careful on the road ahead. You can leave your belongings behind, but you must all come back alive."

Losing an arm or a leg is a minor problem; we still have several bandits locked up from before!

"Yes, Young Master Bai!" everyone replied in unison.

Bai Li glanced at Wu Zhen.

Wu Zhen immediately understood and assured him, "Don't worry, Young Master Bai, I remember it clearly and will absolutely do as you ask!"

Watching everyone leave, Bai Li turned his head and looked at the chick that had been brought over. He picked up the chick and tossed it outside.

The chicken glowed red, and soon after it went out, it lay dead, leaving nothing behind.

"As expected, we can't get out!"

Bai Li seemed to be deep in thought.

It was somewhat expected, after all, Tieshan came back with cracks all over his body.

There are plenty of chickens now, so we can splurge a little.

Then, he took out two buckets that he had prepared beforehand, created an infinite amount of water at the edge of the world, and filled the iron buckets with water.

If someone accidentally wanders into this area but is too afraid to approach, they can use this water to quench their thirst; it's just a small favor anyway.

Then, Bai Li retreated about several dozen meters, combined the logs into planks, and began to build on top of them.

Once he reached a certain height, Bai Li gradually slowed down. He carefully squatted down and placed a plank on top of the plank before slowly moving back and placing another plank on top of it.

There's no way around it; if you accidentally fall down there, it will take a long time just to climb back up. Slow and steady wins the race, you know.

Moreover, it's strangely tall...

Once outside the world's borders and without Bai Xianjun accompanying them, the group remained quiet, but noticeably became much more relaxed.

Along the way, we encountered some people who didn't seem like good people, but they wisely left after seeing the number of people in the group.

"Wei Shi, something's not right!" Miao Zhiming frowned, subtly moving closer to Wei Shi and lowering his voice to say, "Someone's been following us!"

Wei Shi glanced over furtively and, sure enough, saw someone following them in the distance.

"Those people are probably a small squad of bandits. We've been targeted! I'll go tell everyone to get ready and be prepared to fight at any time."

Wei Shi resolutely blocked the railway.

"Don't speed up, just keep going at a normal speed, but let them know that we've found him!" Miao Zhiming suggested.

They were carrying items for the trade, so no matter how fast they sped up, they couldn't get much faster. They would only appear cowardly and make the other party think they were afraid.

We're still some distance from Chengcheng. Since the squad is here, it means the main force is definitely nearby, and we can't avoid it.

As a result, the bandits dared not make any rash moves.

And they really aren't afraid!

"Okay!" Wei Shi slowed down and walked to the back of the line.

The outside world is in such chaos! We've only been gone a short while and we've already encountered bandits again. The world is in turmoil!

"When a dynasty prospers, the people suffer; when a dynasty falls, the people suffer!"

Miao Zhiming sighed.

The team's pace quickened considerably, but due to the bundles they carried, they couldn't run very fast. The people behind them were like stubborn skin that they couldn't shake off.

"It's coming!" Wei Shi said solemnly.

No sooner had he finished speaking than nearly a hundred people rushed up from behind and surrounded Wei Shi and his group.

brush.

Wei Shi and Liu Ping picked up the stone swords, and the others followed suit by drawing their wooden swords.

Haha, are these people here to be funny? They actually have iron swords but don't use wooden swords?

Those who were gathered around exchanged puzzled glances, their eyes filled with mockery.

The leader shouted to Wei Shi and his group, "We are Wang Er's men. You should have heard of him. We only rob, we don't kill. Hand over everything, and we'll let you go!"

Miao Zhiming stepped forward calmly, carrying a bag of loose silver. He said indifferently, "Sir, it's rare to see someone as principled as you. How about this? I have some loose silver here to give to you all. Let us leave now, okay? Why make a big fuss and damage the harmony between us?"

Just now, Miao Zhiming roughly estimated the number of people present, which was no more than two hundred.

One against seven, the advantage is mine!

They have powerful connections.

However, no one knows whether they will encounter other bandits, so it's best to use silver to resolve issues that can be resolved with silver, in order to preserve their strength.

We'll try to be polite first, then resort to force. If they don't know what's good for them, don't blame us for being impolite!

Zhong Guangdao looked at the bag of loose silver and hesitated.

"Brother, they seem to be from Liu Family Village!" someone whispered to Zhong Guangdao.

Zhong Guangdao frowned and asked, "How did you know?"

"That big guy, I remember him!" The man pointed to Liu Ping and explained, "I saw him when I went to Liu Family Village before."

This is going to be difficult.

Zhong Guangdao thought to himself.

A few days ago, when they passed through their own village, they learned that their elders and children had been taken away by a village called Liujia Village.

Brother Wang Er sent people to check on the village, including the person in front of him who was talking to Zhong Guangdao. It is said that the people there are doing very well.

Wang Er originally wanted to go and thank them in person, but he heard from the people who came back that the village was somewhat eerie.
