High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery-Chapter 53 Secrets?

After saying this, Gu Jianghai felt a little embarrassed.

It’s clear to everyone that although the Chen Family Stronghold is small, its combat effectiveness is very formidable, and they always return fully loaded after hunting.

In comparison on their side?

They finally got a prey, but it was snatched away on the road. Fortunately, they met the people from Chen Family Stronghold, the difference is too obvious.

So, on the surface, integrating their people into Chen Family Stronghold is mutually beneficial and a win-win situation, but in reality, they are just holding onto a big thigh.

But he had no choice.

There are too few young and strong men on their side, and every winter, the stronghold starves, and this year will be no exception. If they merge into the Chen Family Stronghold, even if they can’t eat meat, just drinking some soup would be enough not to starve.

Most importantly, Chen Guodong has good character and is trustworthy.

The atmosphere was heavy.

The people of Gu Family Stronghold had their hearts in their throats again, and there was an uncontrollable look of excitement in their eyes.

They had no objection to Gu Jianghai’s proposal.

If they could merge into Chen Family Stronghold, that would truly be a great happiness.

But what if the other side didn’t agree? After all, there are dozens of elderly, women, and children behind them. If they were from Chen Family Stronghold, they would also have to consider it carefully.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Including Chen Guodong, upon hearing this, they were first delighted. The Wei Brothers left, taking two or three people, and the Hunting Team was currently short-handed.

If these people from Gu Family Stronghold joined, it would solve a pressing need.

Moreover, these people have good character and are trustworthy.

But thinking about the dozens of people in the other stronghold, they hesitated.

There are over a hundred people in their own stronghold waiting to eat. These five pieces of game they brought back would be enough for everyone for a while, but if there were dozens more mouths to feed, the pressure would be great.

The atmosphere remained heavy.

The hearts of the people from Gu Family Stronghold fell to the bottom.

The smile on Gu Jianghai’s face also faltered.

He glanced at Gu Ze by his side.

Hesitating whether to mention that matter, considering their current power, it was understandable if the people from Chen Family Stronghold didn’t think highly of them.

However, at this moment, a young voice sounded.

"Dad, I think we can agree."

In an instant, everyone’s gaze fell on Chen Fan without exception.

"It’s him!"

Gu Jianghai and the others were overjoyed.

Their impression of Chen Fan surpassed anyone else in the Chen Family Stronghold. They never expected he would agree to their joining.

Then, their pupils showed a look of shock.

What did he just call Chen Guodong? Dad?

He turned out to be Chen Guodong’s son?

Chen Fan calmly explained to everyone, "We are currently lacking young and strong men in our stronghold, especially experienced hunters like Wang Ping and Zhao Feng. Although they have strength, they haven’t been seasoned and it takes quite some time to train them. Uncle Gu and the others joining would just solve this urgent need."

"Xiaofan is right." Liu Yong nodded, they had also considered this, "But..."

"Uncle Liu, I understand your concern, you worry that with more people, there won’t be enough food, right?"

Chen Fan smiled slightly, "I think we don’t need to worry. With more people in the Hunting Team, the game they bring back will probably increase. Many people have great power."

Everyone nodded.

It wasn’t that Chen Fan’s words were particularly convincing, but the person saying them could make everyone trust.

"Guodong, since Xiaofan agrees, we have no objection."

"Yes, Brother Gu and the others want to join us, then let’s agree."

"Xiaofan is right." Someone directly said.

Chen Guodong nodded and smiled at Gu Jianghai, "Brother Gu, have you thought it through? If you truly have, then we welcome you to join us."

Did they agree just like that?

Gu Jianghai and the others were a bit sluggish.

They originally thought the other side would go through a discussion, with majority overwhelming minority, but the young man on the other side said a few words and the people of Chen Family Stronghold unanimously agreed.

"Jianghai, Jianghai."

The man beside him nudged him, urging, "Why are you still hesitating, quickly agree."

"Yes, Jianghai, if they change their minds, it will be too late."

Gu Jianghai woke up from his dream and hurriedly said, "Brother Chen, we’ve thought it through, we are willing to join your Chen Family Stronghold. From today, there will be no Gu Family Stronghold anymore."

"Yes, yes, we are all people from Chen Family Stronghold."

Several people shouted excitedly.

Gu Ze, with a thin face, felt a bit embarrassed.

"Hahaha, good, good, we will all be people of one stronghold from now on."

Chen Guodong was also overjoyed.

Liu Yong and others were also smiling and nodding.

From now on, there would be more people hunting outside. If they really encountered danger, the pressure would be much smaller, and not only that, but the stronghold would also be injected with fresh blood, becoming more lively.

Of course, they would also have to work harder; otherwise, they couldn’t support so many people.

"Brother Chen, is this young man your son?"

Gu Jianghai smiled looking at Chen Fan and asked.

"Yes."

"A true hero is young."

Gu Jianghai sighed, "There are so many of us who swallow our pride in front of Li Family Stronghold, but this young man can take them all down alone. Amazing, truly amazing."

"Yes, he can draw a hundred-pound bow!"

"Not only that, he can draw it over ten times. Can any ordinary person do that?"

Several other men praised endlessly.

Chen Fan smiled at them, but his smile froze when his gaze fell on Gu Ze at the far right.

Because the latter seemed a bit unconvinced.

It’s normal for young people, he thought to himself.

"Sure, Xiaofan is the best among us."

The people of Chen Family Stronghold felt very proud.

Chen Guodong couldn’t hide his smile and said modestly, "Brother Gu’s son is not bad either. Judging by his age, he should be about the same as Xiaofan, and he can draw an eighty-pound bow? Even we can’t do that."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yong and others’ eyes lit up.

Yes, this young man is not bad either. The Gu Family Stronghold has survived so long largely due to him.

It’s just that Xiaofan overshadowed him, and they didn’t notice for a moment. Now, with a strong alliance, the stronghold’s life should get better and better.

"Brother Gu, if we’re not mistaken, your son is also a Martial Artist, right?"

"Body Tempering First Layer?"

They asked with curiosity. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"This..."

Gu Jianghai mumbled, looking a bit uneasy.

Gu Ze lowered his head slightly, seeming embarrassed to accept their praises.

"What’s wrong?"

Chen Guodong asked in confusion, "Did I say something wrong? If I offended you, please don’t mind."

"No, no, no."

Gu Jianghai waved his hands repeatedly, "No, you didn’t say anything wrong. Xiaozhe can draw an eighty-pound bow, but there’s another reason."

"Another reason?"

Upon hearing these words, Chen Guodong and others looked at each other.

What does it mean?

Does this young man have some hidden secrets?
