It's no wonder that the villagers in this village hastily organized and held all sorts of weapons in their hands, intending to stop Fan Wu and company. Their arsenal was varied enough, with some holding sharpened bamboo sticks, some with iron shovels, some carrying hoes, and some simply holding a wood-cutting ax... Anyway, they had everything.
Fan Wu and his companions could naturally understand these people since ordinary villagers had started living very difficult lives. Especially in these times, it wasn't just bandits on mountains but also demons and ghosts, which were extremely unfriendly to common folk. Therefore, Xing Fengzi took a step forward and softened his tone, "Fellow villagers, we are not villains."
