Li Min sighed. Shi Hao’s words placed Li Min in a difficult place. He had to either judge that Shi Hao was at fault and make people capture Shi Hao, or he had to judge that Shi Hao was not at fault and allow Shi Hao to continue to act freely. However, there were so many villagers that were accusing Shi Hao of murder. What should he do?

Li Min shouted: “Guards, take him down quickly and hand him over to Village Chief Little Red for the final decision.”

Several soldiers rushed forward. Almost all these people seemed to be new faces. They should be newly recruited soldiers from Shan Family Village. They hadn’t seen the sight of Shi Hao riding the Cloud Mist Beast on the battlefield last time. Otherwise, would they dare to aim their weapons at Shi Hao? Look! Among those soldiers, there was an old face. He didn’t take a step forward and also didn’t draw out his weapon.

That old soldier hastily berated: “Stop, don’t move!”

“What?” The other soldiers were dumbfounded. They were all new recruits, but the one who yelled was a veteran soldier. The veteran soldier had seniority and his shout also had some influence on new recruits. At least, those new recruits hesitated. However, Li Min hadn’t ordered them to stop. Therefore, they continued to walk towards Shi Hao. They were ignorant.

That veteran still berated: “Don’t move! He is our village’s great benefactor.”

In fact, this veteran had just said half of what he thought. He wanted to add another sentence but didn’t dare to say it. What was that he wanted to add? He wanted to say that no one in Shan Family Village was the opponent of this person! What are you all doing? Do you all want to die? He still remembered clearly. At that time, there was a youth with dual hammers that was following this person. Originally, that youth didn’t want to take action to deal with bandits, but those ignorant bandits rushed at him. As a result, he took action against the bandits and they were wiped out. This veteran soldier was afraid that Shi Hao would also do that. Provoking Shi Hao was just asking for a massacre! Not good, he must not let this happen. Even if there was a slight possibility, he had to strangle it on the cradle. Therefore, upon seeing other people were advancing towards Shi Hao, that veteran soldier quickly pulled out his weapon and rushed forward, standing in front of Shi Hao. He firmly shielded Shi Hao. He absolutely couldn’t let the other people attack Shi Hao.

Upon seeing this, Shi Hao quickly understood the whole story, and he just smiled. he was not a killing demon. When Li Min saw this, he was furious. He didn’t know the reasons. In his view, this was a clear betrayal. No matter the reason, the soldier who betrayed must be punished with capital punishment.

Li Min didn’t hesitate. He acted decisively and shouted loudly: “Bastard! Live off one person while helping another, what are you doing? You are our Shan Family Village’s soldier and you actually dared to betray the village and protect a criminal. You are extremely sinful. You all, shoot this traitor to death.”

After receiving the order, those new recruits pointed their weapons at that veteran soldier. This was not a matter of choice. Military orders were as heavy as a mountain and immovable. They must be followed. However, if they knew the strength of Shi Hao and Pei Yuanqing like this veteran soldier, then Li Min’s military order might be as light as a feather for them.

Even after fighting for a while, the victory or defeat of the battle between the new recruits and the old veteran was still not determined. Why? Because all of them were fighters. And fighter’s trait was high defense and insufficient attack. It was almost impossible to defeat the opponent quickly. Shi Hao already understood this point. He basically was too lazy to care about these soldiers’ interactions. Li Min also saw this problem. He quickly sent someone to call over the knights. Shan Family Village had 100 warhorses but just 5 knight soldiers. Therefore, all knight soldiers were equipped with a warhorse. Those knights rushed over with great momentum.

One knight shouted: “You once fought alongside me, but today, you actually dare to disrupt military discipline! The military discipline must not be disrupted. Today, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I will slay you in the place of Village Chief Little Red.”

That knight was also a veteran. He had obviously experienced the bandit invasion. However, this knight seemed to just see that traitor soldier protecting Shi Hao, not Shi Hao who was protected. At this moment, Shi Hao felt that it was time for him to show his face.

Suddenly, rays of light appeared in the midst of the crowd and Shi Hao was already ridding the Cloud Mist Beast. Li Min was stunned! This was incredible. Although Li Min had already thought that this man was powerful, he hadn’t thought that he was so powerful. This mount was absolutely not on the same level as Shan Family Village’s standard warhorses.

At the same time, the rushing cavalryman was also dumbfounded! This person’s face, moreover, this mount, he truly couldn’t forget them in his lifetime. He immediately thought about the entire thing and finally understood why this man who had fought alongside him chose to protect Shi Hao. This man was not betraying Shan Family Village, rather he was preventing Shan Family Village from offending a great personage! This man was not a sinful traitor, but a hero who unswervingly protected the village.

“Stop! Stop! Whoever doesn’t stop, I will kill him.” That cavalryman shouted loudly. Then, that cavalryman hastily stored his warhorse, walked forward, knelt on one knee and expressed his gratitude and admiration to Shi Hao. Li Min on one side was surprised! And he finally realized a point. Only new recruits dared to attack Shi Hao, but the veterans would take the initiative to protect Shi Hao after seeing him. Li Min carefully looked at Shi Hao’s figure again. And at this moment, Li Min understood that Shi Hao was one of those two strong men who protected Shan Family Village from bandits!

Li Min hastily stepped forward and said: “This small man has eyes but didn’t see Mount Tai, honored sir, everything is my fault.”

“Old Li, no need to address me like that. Let’s go, it’s not a big deal. Quickly take me to meet your Village Chief.” Shi Hao said. In >, although the strong were respected, Li Min, after all, was an old man. When Li Min addressed him like that, he was somewhat embarrassed.

Shi Hao quickly found Shan Wanhong under the lead of Li Min. Shan Yixiong was also beside Shan Wanhong. At this moment, Shan Wanhong had already learned about the agreement between Shan Yixiong and Shi Hao. She had no objection to this. After all, she was just a super rookie. She just came to experience the thrill of the game. She didn’t care too much about the development of Shan Family Village. As long as her brother Shan Yixiong had no objection, she wouldn’t have any objections. She said to Shi Hao: “Little Boss, please tell me what I have to do.”

Shi Hao shrugged his shoulders. Upon hearing Shan Wanhong calling him Little Boss, he felt something different in his heart. Shi Hao replied: “You just have to go to my market and cheat some foolish uncles. As for the other things, you don’t have much expertise.”

Shan Yixiong smiled knowingly. Shan Yixiong also had this plan.

Shan Yixiong knew from Shan Wanhong where the warhorses of Shan Family Village came from. Shan Yixiong was a shrewd man! A slick and sly person! He was already seeing profits pouring from all sides. Heh heh, it was worthwhile. He had never expected Shan Wanhong to have such a talent.
