Saving System: Calm Down, My Fleeing Host!-Chapter 192: The Little Rascal’s Special Skills
"Hahaha! Accomplish great deeds, with your master who employs such underhanded measures, forcing others and dreaming of rising to high positions; utterly wishful thinking."
"You... this is preposterous." The small leader was extremely angered.
"Alright, since you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then don’t blame me for being rude."
The small leader gestured, and more soldiers surrounded them.
Just as Cheng Beiniu was feeling immense pressure.
A few men from Qingshan Village with slightly better martial arts skills also rushed over to help, such as Cheng Dawei and his father, the followers of Cheng Tianhong, along with Cheng Jingo, Cheng Yongnian, Qi Fei, and others, who all charged in.
Seeing the situation rapidly deteriorate, Cheng Xiaoxiao was extremely anxious, contemplating a strategy when the system exclaimed, making her think something bad was happening again.
Before she could ask.
The system quickly followed with, "That little brat snuck in quietly, no idea what he’s up to."
"Little brat, who are you talking about?"
The system was speechless, rolled its eyes, and said, "Isn’t it Cheng Sicheng? Aren’t you the one who calls him a little brat?"
"Really?"
Apparently, there was more than one she called a little brat!
She momentarily forgot, reasonably so!
Suddenly, the system surprisingly discovered Cheng Sicheng squatting in a hidden dark corner, removing stacked weed stalks, revealing a wooden board beneath it, beneath which were a dozen or so neatly arranged wine jars.
He quickly dug out the wine jars.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was now guarding the exit, not daring to move around, fearing the exit would be discovered and blocked by the enemy, leaving them no retreat.
"What’s he doing with the wine jars?"
The system was also puzzled, "No idea!"
There are over twenty thousand soldiers here, even if some were just drugged and haven’t awoken, there’s still over ten thousand; how can just a few of them fight through?
It’s doomed now, as more soldiers gather.
Currently, not even a single System Coin can be found, wanting to buy some auxiliary tools isn’t possible, what can be done? Any way to escape?
Just as Cheng Xiaoxiao squinted and contemplated whether to set a few fires, letting these treehouses burn, there came a loud bang from over there, and instantly flames soared to the sky.
The system joyfully exclaimed in Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mind, "That little brat truly delivered, doing what you intended beforehand."
"You say he set the fire? Then what was the explosive sound about?" Could she be mishearing?
Actually hearing explosions in this backward era.
"Well, host, you didn’t hear wrong, it’s a self-made earth bomb, who’d have thought that little brat had such skills."
Cheng Xiaoxiao was also somewhat surprised, "What earth bomb?"
Thinking again, she guessed roughly, using wine jars to make earth explosives, could that stuff really explode?
The system continued lamenting: "The explosion’s power itself isn’t too big, but the blast wave and wine shards injure quite a few; looking at those residual fragments, there’s traces of nitre and sulfur, this little brat is impressive, at such a young age having this level of destructive power, host be careful."
Cheng Xiaoxiao only wanted... hehe!
How simple is physical chemistry, if this little brat were put in modern times, he’d surely be a top science student.
No matter what, as long as he doesn’t harm villagers, being fierce to outsiders isn’t her concern.
Besides, he’s just a child lacking love, in the future, if everyone cared more and guided him, he surely won’t stray anywhere.
Who is born destined to be a wicked person? Isn’t it life forcing or cruel and twisted family environments causing it?
Can’t put all the blame on the child.
Thoughts return, the gigantic sound attracted the small leader’s attention.
The main account’s commander quickly brought people over to investigate, then on the other side, another bang, flames erupted.
At this moment, Cheng Sicheng swiftly darted through the camp center, his homemade wine bombs were few, just about a dozen.
He held the fire strike, soon igniting several more treehouses, some pure tent-built storage rooms he did not spare either.
The places hit by wine bombs were more prone to catching fire, consecutive sudden flames surged bigger and stronger.
When soldiers came to him, he’d toss a wine bomb out, making them dizzy, ears ringing, severely injured, collapsing to the ground.
After subduing those who tried to capture him, he then moved to another location to set fires, then escaped, then set another fire. If surrounded he’d toss a bomb, this wave of operations was simply extraordinary, the system couldn’t help but praise.
This surprise came too suddenly, now Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t guard the opening anymore, because the commotion Cheng Sicheng caused was too big, many soldiers went towards him.
She feared the little brat couldn’t break through, went ahead to assist.
As more treehouses caught fire, more soldiers gathered from the west main camp, and he continuously shifted positions, using his learned martial arts movement technique to the fullest.
His martial prowess was previously hidden, not discovered by those here, he’s much stronger than ordinary soldiers, very fast, but more and more people surrounded, very soon no gaps or retreat left.
Meanwhile, Cheng Dashan over there had several villagers responding, plus these soldiers, many transferred to firefighting, they barely broke through and headed here.
Cheng Sicheng glared angrily with bloodshot eyes, seeing more and more soldiers encircle him, he only had one last wine bomb left, this was his masterpiece completed in the first half of the night.
The power is somewhat special, he couldn’t bear Xiaoxiao, didn’t want to just die like this, how to both knock these people over and escape successfully?
Looking at layer upon layer of soldiers, seems impossible! Such a pity.
He tightly gripped the last wine jar, raised his arm, those soldiers were scared enough to step back a little, but the spears still pointed at him.
This wine jar isn’t just an ordinary jar, it contains not only explosive materials but also flour, mixed with poison; it’s his meticulously crafted most satisfactory work, once exploded the power is formidable.
Still, poisoning these soldiers means he’d also be poisoned.
Back then helping Xiaoxiao learn herbs, assisted in packaging and drying, secretly read her medical books, secretly watched her make poison, learned some basics, and outside this valley, there’s no shortage of poisonous grass, several types, some he recognized, some only seen in medical books.
He discovered a type of poisonous grass Xiaoxiao used, knew its effects, thus utilized it, but he didn’t have the capability to create an antidote, just as he hesitated on whether to make the final move, far off he saw outside the encirclement, a fighting noise was heard, a nimble figure charged over from the left-front location, suddenly he laughed, laughing smugly and triumphantly.
Turning to laugh again, eerily sinister.
The system was shocked by his seamless switch between two faces.
Seeing the host was in combat, couldn’t just criticize her, truly holding back was hard.
