2: Martial Arts Scroll, choose one of three!

Jiang Dahu!

Cheng Yurou hadn't expected Jiang Dahu to dare come to their house so late at night.

But then again, Jiang Dahu, relying on his village chief father, was accustomed to bullying men and women in the village. Plus, he had some strength and was ruthless, so even the village men didn't dare provoke him.

In the past, with Jiang Chen around, Jiang Dahu didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

Now that Jiang Chen was unconscious, Jiang Dahu's courage grew.

He actually dared to come directly to their door.

Jiang Dahu, standing outside the door, reeked of alcohol. The blood ginseng he snatched from Jiang Chen had sold for a full fifty taels of silver in town!

It was said that a court official in the capital only earned twenty taels a year.

He had become rich overnight!

With the money settled, the next step was naturally to get the beauty.

Now, Cheng Yurou was helpless, like a little white rabbit trapped in a cage, and Jiang Dahu could naturally manipulate her as he pleased.

Of course, Jiang Dahu had another objective for coming tonight.

His father had told him: 'Cut the grass but don't remove the roots, and it will grow again with the spring breeze.'

He had always disliked that Jiang Chen, and today, he would take his alluring sister-in-law right in front of Jiang Chen!

After he was done, he would give Jiang Chen another stab.

Then he would set the entire house on fire.

Destroying the bodies and erasing all traces.

Just thinking of Cheng Yurou's captivating backside, Jiang Dahu felt a surge of wicked desire. He kicked open the courtyard gate and walked towards the tightly shut door.

"Hehehe..."

"Little beauty... Brother Hu is here."

Jiang Dahu's fleshy face was twisted into a sinister smile.

He stepped forward to push the door, but found it tightly locked.

"Oh? You dare to resist?"

Jiang Dahu became even more excited.

"Jiang Dahu, if you don't leave, I'll call for help!"

Cheng Yurou hid behind the door, using a table to brace it firmly.

Jiang Dahu, outside the door, heard her but showed no panic.

"Haha, go ahead and scream... Scream your throat raw, I'd like to see who dares to interfere!"

With that, Jiang Dahu delivered a fierce kick.

With a bang, the door, along with the table, was kicked open.

Cheng Yurou gasped, raising the scissors in her hand, trying to intimidate Jiang Dahu.

"Jiang Dahu, if you don't leave now, then... then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Cheng Yurou shouted.

Jiang Dahu was much taller than her, and his oppressive physique made Cheng Yurou's heart tremble.

His gaze swept across the entire room.

When he saw Jiang Chen lying motionless on the bed, his head wrapped in bandages, Jiang Dahu felt an even greater sense of satisfaction. 'You little brat, you were so arrogant!'

"Weren't you so cocky normally?"

"Why are you lying there like a dead dog today?"

Then Jiang Dahu's gaze lingered greedily on Cheng Yurou.

"Little lady is quite feisty."

"I like it."

Jiang Dahu chuckled, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, and pounced on Cheng Yurou like a hungry wolf.

The scissors Cheng Yurou wildly swung were directly slapped away by Jiang Dahu.

He grabbed Cheng Yurou's hair and then pressed her onto the table.

A sinister smile played on Jiang Dahu's lips.

"Haha, the more you struggle, the more excited I get!"

"Damn it, if it weren't for Jiang Chen, this bastard, I would have already had you."

"Today, I'm going to have a good time right in front of him!"

Just as Jiang Dahu was holding Cheng Yurou down with one hand and preparing to unbuckle his trousers with the other, he heard a faint cough from behind him.

Then, the sound of a taut bowstring, full of power, rang out.

Instantly, Jiang Dahu's movements froze.

He immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

Jiang Dahu slowly turned his head.

He saw a cold arrow pointing directly at his glabella.

"Jiang... Jiang Chen!"

Jiang Dahu's legs instantly went weak, and the alcohol's effects immediately dissipated, causing him to shiver.

His face showed an expression of disbelief.

Wasn't Jiang Chen severely injured and unconscious?

Why was he acting as if nothing had happened?

Cheng Yurou didn't know what had happened, only that the pressure on her head had released. She immediately broke free, darted to the side, and quickly picked up the scissors from the floor, pointing them at her delicate face.

However, when Cheng Yurou clearly saw the scene before her, she found that Jiang Chen, who had been severely injured and unconscious just moments ago, had stood up as if nothing was wrong.

And he was pointing a bow and arrow at Jiang Dahu.

"Xiao... Xiao Chen?"

Cheng Yurou thought she was dreaming.

When she saw Jiang Chen give her a familiar smile, her tense and chaotic heart finally settled down.

It really was Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen was fine... That's great!

Suddenly, Cheng Yurou remembered that when she was attending to Xiao Chen just now... could Xiao Chen have been awake then?

Instantly, Cheng Yurou's cheeks turned as red as a burning iron block.

Jiang Dahu knew Jiang Chen's capabilities.

Although Jiang Chen was young, he was already one of the top three hunters in Da Huai Village.

The first was naturally his village chief father.

The second was his father's subordinate.

And the third was Jiang Chen.

Even his father had warned him not to deal with Jiang Chen head-on.

After all, Jiang Chen was a lone wolf; if it weren't for his sister-in-law as a restraint, he would be even more troublesome.

Moreover, Jiang Chen's hunting skills had inherited the true essence of Jiang Dalei.

At this moment, Jiang Dahu looked at the sharp arrow tip, only three inches from his glabella.

At this distance, if Jiang Chen simply let go, he could easily end him.

"Jiang Chen... what do you want to do?"

"You're still young, you're still young, you can't go down a path of lawlessness."

"What if you kill me today? Can you escape the laws of the Great Lan Dynasty?"

"Can you escape my father's pursuit?"

"Even if you can escape, what about Cheng Yurou?"

"Let's sit down and talk properly about anything..."

Puff!

Jiang Chen directly let go.

Jiang Dahu's eyes widened in fury.

Jiang Chen's arrow pierced through his shoulder, pinning Jiang Dahu directly to the table.

The excruciating pain immediately made Jiang Dahu want to scream loudly.

However, Jiang Chen was one step ahead, delivering a hand chop to Jiang Dahu's neck. He controlled his strength, merely preventing Jiang Dahu from making a sound.

"I heard you like to struggle."

"I'll give you a chance."

"If you can break free from this rope, I'll let you live."

Jiang Chen used a rope as thick as two fingers to hang Jiang Dahu upside down in the hunting room.

Jiang Chen usually used this hunting room to butcher game.

The strong smell of blood filled the air, and some scraps of meat and bone could be seen on the floor.

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Jiang Dahu's heart secretly rejoiced.

Although it wouldn't be easy to break free from such a thick hemp rope while hanging upside down, especially with his hands and feet bound, it wasn't impossible for Jiang Dahu.

"Oh, right, you only have the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn."

Jiang Chen said faintly.

Then, under Jiang Dahu's astonished gaze, he used a small knife to make an incision on his neck.

Immediately, blood gushed out.

"You..."

Jiang Dahu felt the blood flowing from the wound on his neck and was instantly terrified.

At this rate of bleeding, his blood would be completely drained within the time it took for one stick of incense to burn!

What made Jiang Dahu feel most despairing was that Jiang Chen did not leave.

Instead, he sat on a nearby stool, holding a hunting knife and staring at him.

Now Jiang Dahu understood: even if he broke free, Jiang Chen had no intention of letting him go.

He wanted to torture him!

He wanted to watch him die in agony.

Jiang Dahu's guess was correct.

But Jiang Chen had no intention of paying attention to him right now.

Instead, he was looking at his System panel.

It was precisely by taking a jin chuang pill that Jiang Chen's injuries had recovered, allowing him to save Cheng Yurou in time.

At this moment, Jiang Chen's gaze was focused on that scroll.

With a thought, it was as if an invisible mouse had clicked on it.

Immediately, the scene shifted, and the scroll opened before his eyes.

martial arts scroll: Current selection of three.

One: Grandmaster-level Archery

Two: Great Strength Ox Demon Pill (Can temporarily increase Physical Body strength)

Three: Physical Body Hundredfold Enhancement

(Note: The martial arts scroll can be reopened by accumulating enemy kill value, with each selection refreshing randomly)
