Chapter 1239

Chapter 1239: Chapter 1239....
Seeing this, no one said anything.
“It’s getting late now. You should get some rest.” Chu Wanwan quickly waved her hand.
Everyone nodded and entered their respective rooms.
It was late at night and many people were already asleep.
Jiang Ming lay on the bed, but he could not fall asleep.
The surroundings were silent, but there was always an ominous atmosphere in the air.
He had a feeling that this place was too quiet. Usually, the quieter it was, the more dangerous it was.
However, he had already stayed in this village. There were dangers and opportunities, and he was used to it.
However, the atmosphere tonight was not normal.
However, he was too tired and was about to fall asleep.
Squeak…
What was that sound?
Jiang Ming was a light sleeper and immediately opened his eyes.
Was this a door or a window?
Just as he was thinking, a gust of wind blew against his bed. Jiang Ming immediately got off the bed. The enemy in front of him was unarmed, but he was fierce and swift.
Jiang Ming could not see the person’s appearance clearly. He flashed and appeared behind the enemy.
However, he did not expect that the enemy would actually give him a blow from behind.
This blow was so powerful that if it were an ordinary person, their bones would have shattered.
Jiang Ming leaped into the air and kicked the enemy.
He snorted coldly.
He wanted to give them a taste of their own medicine. In terms of brute force, he might not be as strong as them, but it was not a problem.
As he thought about it, he took advantage of the fact that they had yet to recover and immediately went to the other side. He quickly lit the lamp on the table.
The enemy rushed over again. Jiang Ming raised his lamp and shone it over.
This time, he bumped into the enemy and saw their appearance clearly.
“You…”
Jiang Ming was dumbfounded. The one who attacked him was actually the village chief!
“Yes! It’s me!” the bearded man said rudely. Then, he threw a few more punches.
Jiang Ming knew his identity, so he naturally did not want to have any conflict with him.
“Wait a minute.”
He frowned and wanted to stop, but the village chief’s fist came straight for his face.
He had no choice but to put down the oil lamp and dodge. As he dodged, he asked him, “Did I offend you? If I did something wrong, you can tell me. Why do you have to do this?”
He was speechless.
If it was not for the Yellow Gall Grass, he would not be like this.
As he spoke, he had already blocked more than ten attacks. The two of them took two steps back. In this narrow room, it was impossible to dodge the blows.
“Even if I die, I have to figure out why I had to die,” Jiang Ming said helplessly.
“Stop!” The village chief shouted and said, “You actually took a fancy to the young miss! ”
Jiang Ming was stunned.
So, he was here for Chu Wanwan.
He had to explain that Chu Wanwan had taken a liking to him first.
Just as Jiang Ming was letting his imagination run wild, the village chief solemnly declared, “Let me tell you! Don’t look down on us just because we’re a bandit village! The young miss is as precious as a diamond to us. You? Let me see if you are worthy of her love!”
With that, he rushed over again. Jiang Ming dodged again.
However, this time, he knew the village chief’s purpose in coming, so he would not just hide.
The village chief’s fist smashed over like a huge rock. Jiang Ming jumped up lightly and pressed his head with one hand. Then, he swiftly jumped behind him and pressed his acupuncture point.
The village chief could not move at all, but he could still speak.
“Good, you really have some skills.”
When Jiang Ming heard his hearty voice, he sighed and quickly unsealed his acupoints helplessly.
The village chief turned around and said bluntly that this was a test for Jiang
Ming.
“If you want to be with the young miss, first of all, you have to be good at martial arts and have a good character! You’re not bad, kid. You’ve passed both tests!”
After he finished speaking, he laughed heartily. Jiang Ming had no choice but to laugh along. He was so embarrassed that he did not know what to do.
“Here! Charge!’
Outside the door, a tender voice sounded. Then, the door was slammed open with a bang. Jiang Ming was speechless by this sudden impact.
Who was it this time?
A gust of dust blew over, and Jiang Ming waved his hand in disgust.
“Jiu Zhu!”
“Are you alright?”
Two familiar voices came. Jiang Ming looked and saw that it was Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe.
“What’s going on? It’s already so late. Why is the village chief here? What are you guys doing?”
Yuan Hehe had already circled around Jiang Ming and the village chief.
In fact, he was already prepared.
If he dared to make a move on Jiang Ming, then he would definitely not be polite!
Jiang Ming did not know what to say, and the village chief suddenly became mute.
Sikong Wuyuan looked around. “You didn’t attack Jiu Zhu, did you?” he asked.
Yuan Hehe turned around and stared at the chief. “Why did you attack Jiu Zhu?”
Being stared at by the two of them, the village chief’s face could not help but turn red.
They were really bold.
“Because I wanted to test…” the village chief stammered.
He was too embarrassed to say it. If he said it now, it would only cause conflict.
However, he did not want that to happen. He felt that Jiang Ming was not bad.
When Jiang Ming saw this, he immediately changed the topic and talked about something else.
The two of them refused to let it go.
“No matter what the reason is, how can you disturb Jiu Zhu’s rest in the middle of the night? Jiang Ming has never done anything to cause trouble for everyone since he came to the village. You’re an elder. How can you do this(” Yuan Hehe frowned.
Jiang Ming quickly stopped him. “Yuan Hehe, this is nothing. It’s all in the past. ”
He did not finish his last sentence.
Everything would wait until he obtained the Yellow Gall Grass.
Before he could say anything, Chu Wanwan had also rushed over. She seemed to have sensed something and stared at the village chief.
“Chief, what are you doing here?”
“Why are you here?”
Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan had a tacit understanding. They spoke at the same time. “Chief, you’re not sleeping in the middle of the night. You’re here to cause trouble for Jiu Zhu. I wonder what he has done wrong!’
Chu Wanwan was infuriated by this complaint. She immediately asked the chief, “What are you doing? Jiang Ming did nothing wrong. Why are you looking for trouble with him? If you hurt him, I won’t let you off!”
Her words were harsh. The village chief quickly explained, “Young Miss, I’m doing this for your own good. I’m here to test his martial arts skills and character. If anything happens in the future, he has to be able to protect you.”
The village chief’s explanation was clear and logical. When the young miss heard it, she became even more anxious.
“Alright, you did this for my own good. However, please don’t interfere in my matters in the future!”
Seeing this, the village chief did not dare to make a sound.
He had indeed gone overboard.
Jiang Ming quickly tried to smooth things over. “You guys should leave first.
Rest is the most important thing. We’ll talk about this later.”
