70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 96: Dealing with Guoshan Peak

Xu Mumu’s stone hit Guoshan Peak directly on the head. Although she hadn’t injured it yet, her force was enough to make it hurt.

The hissing sound came through, and Xu Mumu’s intention succeeded as Guoshan Peak’s attention was drawn to her.

Xu Mumu’s bow and arrows were fully drawn. She frowned slightly, realizing this wasn’t a specially made bow that could withstand much force. The arrow shot through the air, and Xu Mumu snatched the knife from Xu Minghui’s hands and threw a long stick to him.

Her speed was so fast that Xu Minghui didn’t even have time to react. The stick in Xu Minghui’s hand was quite long, it was the one he’d broken off a tree earlier, and he rushed forward as well.

The arrow Xu Mumu shot passed through the seven-inch mark, but didn’t pierce it, as the power of the bamboo arrow was ultimately limited.

Guoshan Peak, angered by Xu Mumu, swept its thick and long body across the ground, rapidly biting towards her.

Even before Guoshan Peak got close, Xu Mumu could smell the fishy stench.

Xu Mumu dared not be careless; although this snake wasn’t quite like those mutated ones from the end times, it was still rare to see such a large snake in the countryside.

Just as that huge mouth was about to bite her, Xu Mumu quickly dodged, aiming the knife at the seven-inch mark, which is the vulnerable spot of all snakes.

The strike missed, and perhaps sensing danger, the snake’s tail flicked rapidly, knocking leaves off the surrounding trees.

Guoshan Peak’s gaze was fixed fiercely on Xu Mumu, its body coiled up like a drawn bow.

Xu Mumu came closer, and it was as if she could see through everything, revealing two bluish-white fangs with poison dripping from the tips.

Suddenly, with a swoosh, it lunged directly at Xu Mumu.

Xu Minghui was terrified; he struck Guoshan Peak’s head hard with his stick, trying to buy time for his sister. At this moment, what else could they do but trust her?

Meanwhile, Xu Tao’s legs gave way in fear, causing him to collapse onto the ground. Xu Minglei and the others dared not approach.

"What do we do about Big Sis? Second Brother, how do we save her?" Xu Jiaojiao was about to cry, terrified by the size of the snake.

"Throw stones at it, kill it, don’t let it bite Sister," Xu Minglei suggested, picking up a stone, ready to throw at the snake.

"Big Brother and Big Sis are still there, what if we hit them? I can’t aim," Xu Jiaojiao felt useless.

"Forget it, let’s pull Xu Tao out first. What a fool, upsetting such a big creature. If anything happens to my brother or sister, see how I deal with you," Xu Minglei glared at a leg-shaken Xu Tao, worried about hitting his sister too.

Just as Guoshan Peak was about to attack Xu Mumu, Xu Minghui intervened in time, striking its head with his stick using all his strength.

A cracking sound followed as the stick broke.

However, Xu Mumu’s knife also struck the seven-inch mark, this time without holding back, using all her strength. If she didn’t kill it, their whole group of kids would be doomed.

This knife was cherished by their grandfather, and it had been sharpened to a keen edge.

Guoshan Peak was pierced through by Xu Mumu, disregarding Xu Minghui, attacking her with searing pain from the seven-inch mark.

Xu Mumu kept dodging but was eventually swept into a large tree by Guoshan Peak’s tail.

"Sis, are you okay?" Xu Minglei was petrified, seeing Xu Mumu injured, he ran to her, heedless of danger.

"Minglei!!" Xu Mumu shouted, eyes wide with fury as Xu Minglei approached, while Guoshan Peak attacked indiscriminately, chasing Xu Minghui on one end and about to wrap its tail around Xu Minglei.

Enduring the sharp pain, Xu Mumu rose and ran towards Xu Minglei.

Just as the snake’s tail was about to coil around Xu Minglei, Xu Mumu grabbed the tail and began to swing it around.

"Bro, Minglei, move aside, I’ll smash it dead," Xu Mumu shouted.

Holding the snake’s tail, her brothers quickly ducked away; Xu Minglei was terrified, his legs too weak to move, but Xu Minghui swiftly pulled him away, tumbling far.

Without any obstacles in her way, Xu Mumu used the snake’s tail like a whip, smashing its head against stones repeatedly.

Xu Mumu had great strength, and soon the stone gave way.

Nearby stones and trees were ravaged by Xu Mumu, and the snake finally fell silent, as Xu Mumu dropped it to the ground.

Having been pierced twice at the seven-inch mark, it no longer breathed.

Yet Xu Mumu didn’t dare be careless; even dead, this thing could be lethal.

Seeing that wide-open snake mouth, Xu Mumu threw a stone into it.

The snake’s mouth clamped on the stone, entirely inactive, dead without closing its eyes.

Xu Mumu collapsed to the ground, everything hurt, feeling like her bones were about to fall apart, and it had been so long since she’d fought this intensely, her moves had become rusty, and her body felt fragile.

"Sis, is Guoshan Peak really dead?" Only now did Xu Minglei rush to Xu Mumu’s side, he was petrified, grateful she was safe.

"It’s dead. Who amongst you is strong enough to call Dad and Uncle Four to sneak this back?" Xu Mumu took several deep breaths, finally feeling somewhat comfortable.

"Big Sister, I’ll go, I’m fast," Xu Jiaojiao immediately offered, feeling finally useful after being unable to help with the snake earlier.

"Be discreet when you find them, don’t foolishly tell others," Xu Minghui, also slumping to the ground panting, echoed her sentiment. He almost thought this was the end for them.

"Got it, Big Brother," Xu Jiaojiao nodded seriously, then dashed quickly towards the bottom of the mountain.

"Why are you crying? I’m fine, alright?" Seeing Xu Minglei shedding tears, Xu Mumu wasn’t sure what to do. Her little brother hadn’t cried after being chased by their mother for a long time, and now he was.

"Sis, I was so scared, thankfully you’re okay," Xu Minglei sobbed.

"Your sister is tough, nothing gets to me easily. No more tears, okay? Once we sell the snake, I’ll ask Dad to buy you a toy, sound good?" Xu Mumu spoke gently. Upon joining this family, the first bond she formed was with this little brother. Though mischievous, his care for her was genuine.

Moreover, her brother listened to her advice, studied hard, and was doing well. She liked this little brother very much.
