Chapter 117: Chapter 116 Where Are Uncle Wei and the Others? Why Can’t I See Them? (Please Subscribe)

The people from Zhao Family Castle responded instinctively with disbelief.

The last time they encountered Chen Guodong’s group in Song Family Castle, it was true that Chen Guodong had caught a significant amount of prey. But in their view, it was likely just a case of a blind cat stumbling upon a dead rat, purely luck.

Next time, they surely wouldn’t be so lucky.

But now?

"Brother Cao, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Is that not Chen Guodong’s group?"

"Yeah, how could they possibly have wildebeest mounts, and several of them too? Don’t you know that each of those costs a few thousand?"

"Maybe it’s someone else?"

"Do they have many people? If they don’t outnumber us, heh heh heh."

Someone let out a laugh, the meaning was clear.

Hearing this, the others began to grow restless.

If they were not many, they could just rob them. After all, if something was handed to you on a platter, how could you not accept it?

Although they could show some mercy and let those people live, provided they were sensible enough.

"How could I be mistaken?"

Cao Shiguang’s breathing became rapid, "It’s definitely them, but..."

He paused, squinting his eyes, curiously saying, "Why are Gu Jianghai and his people with them? They seem to get along quite well?"

The twenty or thirty people behind him were even more confused upon hearing this.

What’s going on?

It’s both Chen Guodong and Gu Jianghai, what’s really happening?

"Hiss..."

At that moment, Cao Shiguang gasped again, his voice full of shock and a tinge of fear, "How come they have guns?"

"What!"

The atmosphere immediately fell silent.

Those who were eager to give it a try moments ago now looked at each other, unconsciously taking a step back.

No wonder they had mounts; it turned out they were armed.

But something was off!

Didn’t Brother Cao say they were from Chen Family Stronghold? Even if you count Gu Jianghai, where did the guns come from???

Many eyes fell on Third Brother Zhao.

"Third Brother, what’s the situation? Is it really like Brother Cao said?"

"Yeah, Third Brother, if they’re from Chen Family Stronghold, where did they get horses? And where did the guns come from? Even if they had the money to buy them, they couldn’t without a resident permit from Song Family Castle, right?"

They felt as if ten thousand ants were crawling on their bodies, itching intolerably.

Third Brother Zhao didn’t answer immediately. It was almost two minutes before he put down the telescope and said, "Old Cao is right, it’s Chen Guodong and Gu Jianghai’s group."

"Then, do they really have mounts? Do they really have guns?"

Countless desperate eyes turned to him.

"Yes."

Third Brother Zhao nodded, his gaze growing colder, "Not only do they have them, but quite a few."

"!!!"

The atmosphere quieted again, pin-drop silent.

"I saw them leading six wildebeest, each one dragging a prey."

Cao Shiguang said slowly, "Not only that, I saw three people with guns, two rifles, and an SMG."

The crowd felt a surge of heat, then as if doused with cold water.

Two rifles?

And an SMG?

Despite having bows and arrows, their range was far shorter than that of rifles.

Getting close was dangerous, especially with an SMG!

At one to two hundred meters, a burst could turn someone into a beehive!

Those six wildebeest, each dragging a prey, sounded tempting, but considering the guns, forget it.

Someone shrank back, taking a step backwards.

But not everyone was willing.

A tall, crooked-mouth man holding a 100-pound longbow shouted, "Damn it, so what if they have guns? Do they think they’re mighty? Just three guns, we have so many people, charging together, they can’t be our match!"

"That’s right!"

Someone quickly echoed, "Chen Guodong’s group, who knows how they got those three guns, but it’s not easy to master marksmanship. Many of us are good with bows, in a real fight, do we need to fear them?"

"Third Brother, there’s nothing to hesitate about. Let’s catch them off guard, seize the guns and horses. If they resist, kill them all! And take all the women from Chen Family Stronghold!"

"Yes, yes, hahaha!"

The site resounded with laughter.

In their view, there was nothing wrong with this approach.

To hell with legal rules and moral constraints, in this apocalypse, whoever has the bigger fist owns everything!

"They’ve spotted us."

Third Brother Zhao suddenly said.

"Huh?"

The crooked-mouth man gaped, "Third Brother, what did you say? They’ve spotted us?"

"Right."

Cao Shiguang, still watching through the telescope, said, "Some of them also have telescopes and are watching us, including those holding the guns. If we charge now, they’ll likely see and shoot first."

"They wouldn’t dare!"

Someone shouted.

However, no one echoed the sentiment, and the person’s momentum quickly waned, "Shouldn’t we pretend to go over and greet them?"

"Do you think they’re stupid?"

Cao Shiguang glanced at him, "If it were you, carrying so much, wouldn’t you be cautious seeing a large group approaching?"
