Gu Qianning hugged Chu Mohan tightly, with happiness and determination in her eyes. Chu Mohan hugged her back, whispering his love and promises in her ears. The breeze blew gently, as if blessing their love. At this moment, it seemed that the whole world was left with only them, and everything around them became so beautiful and peaceful.

However, this sweetness and tranquility did not last long. One morning, the village was still shrouded in a thin mist. Suddenly, a burst of rapid horse hooves broke the tranquility. The villagers who were on guard at the entrance of the village ran back to the village in panic, shouting loudly: "Oh no, the bandits are coming!"

Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan heard the shouts and immediately became alert. They quickly gathered the villagers and organized a defense. Gu Qianning looked at the panicked villagers and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, as long as we unite, we will be able to resist the bandits' attack!" Chu Mohan also stood up and encouraged everyone: "Yes, we can't let the bandits take away the fruits of our labor and our homes. We must protect them!"

With their encouragement, the villagers gradually calmed down, picked up farm tools and simple weapons, and prepared for battle.

Gu Qianning quickly entered the space and took out some previously stored swords, bows and arrows and other weapons, and distributed them to the villagers who were capable of fighting. While distributing them, she reminded everyone: "Be careful and protect yourself."

Chu Mohan led some young and strong villagers to set up obstacles and traps at the entrance of the village. They brought large stones and set up tripwires, hoping to slow down the bandits' attack.

Soon, a group of bandits on tall horses appeared in the village. These bandits all had ferocious faces, held long knives, and shouted loudly: "Listen, everyone inside, hand over the food and treasures obediently, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"

Gu Qianning stood in front of the villagers and responded loudly: "You bandits, don't even think about getting anything from us! We will live and die with the village!"

The bandit leader sneered: "Humph, if you don't accept my toast, then I'll punish you. Come on!"

At his command, the bandits rode their horses towards the village. When they entered the trap area, several horses tripped and the bandits fell to the ground. Taking this opportunity, the villagers shot arrows, and several bandits were injured.

Seeing this, the bandits became even more angry. They reorganized their team and continued to attack. Gu Qianning directed the villagers to use the terrain to dodge and attack. She asked some villagers to shoot arrows from the roofs of the houses, while others ambushed in the narrow alleys.

During the battle, Gu Qianning remained calm and resourceful. She observed the bandits' attack routes and adjusted her defense strategy in time. When she saw bandits trying to sneak around the back of the village, she led a team of villagers to rush over and repel the bandits.

Chu Mohan also led the way and engaged in close combat with the bandits. He wielded his sword with great courage and chopped down several bandits in succession. Under his leadership, the morale of the villagers was even higher, and everyone threw themselves into the battle without hesitation.

However, the bandits were numerous and well-armed, and the villagers gradually began to struggle. Several villagers were injured, and Gu Qianning quickly pulled them to a safe place and took out medicine from the space to treat them.

"Everyone hold on, we will definitely win!" Gu Qianning cheered the villagers loudly.

At this moment, the bandit leader discovered Gu Qianning, and he rushed towards her with a few of his men. Chu Mohan saw this and rushed over without hesitation, blocking Gu Qianning.

"Qian Ning, go away quickly, I will deal with them!" Chu Mohan said loudly.

Gu Qianning shook her head firmly: "No, I won't leave you, let's fight together!"

After that, she picked up the bow and arrow, aimed at the bandit leader, and shot an arrow. Unfortunately, the bandit leader dodged the arrow by leaning sideways. He laughed: "Little girl, do you think you can shoot me?"

Gu Qianning was not angered by his ridicule, she quickly put on another arrow and shot again. This time, the bandit leader was not so lucky, he was shot in the shoulder, and he screamed in pain.

Taking this opportunity, Chu Mohan rushed towards the bandit leader with his sword. The two started a fierce fight. Although Chu Mohan was brave, the bandit leader was not a pushover either. For a while, it was difficult to tell who was the winner.

At this moment, Gu Qianning discovered the bandit leader's weakness, and she shot another arrow, which hit the bandit leader's leg. The bandit leader staggered, and Chu Mohan took the opportunity to stab him in the chest with a sword. The bandit leader fell to the ground and died.

When the other bandits saw their leader being killed, they immediately lost their composure. The villagers took the opportunity to launch a counterattack and beat the bandits to a pulp. Some bandits, seeing the situation was not good, fled.

After a fierce battle, the village was finally saved. The villagers cheered and lifted Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan high to celebrate the victory.

Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan looked at each other with relief and pride in their eyes. They knew that this victory was hard-won and was the result of everyone's unity and joint efforts.

However, after the battle, the village also suffered considerable losses. Many houses were burned down, and some villagers were injured or even lost their lives. Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan looked at the tragic scene in front of them, their hearts filled with grief.

"We must rebuild the village so that everyone can live a better life." Gu Qianning said firmly.

Chu Mohan nodded: "Well, we can definitely do it."

In the following days, Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan led the villagers to start reconstruction work. They took out building materials and tools from the space to repair the damaged houses, used medicines from the space to treat the injured villagers, and organized the villagers to replant and raise crops to resume production.

Thanks to their efforts, the village gradually regained its former vitality. Houses were rebuilt, crops grew in the fields, and the number of poultry and livestock increased.

After this fierce battle, the people in the village seemed to have experienced a baptism. The villagers who had always supported each other became even closer. Everyone had a deeper understanding of their neighbors, and everyone understood more clearly that unity is strength.

For Gu Qianning and Chu Mohan, this battle has sublimated their relationship. They have faced life and death together and fought side by side, which has made their hearts closer. Gu Qianning is grateful for Chu Mohan's company and support, while Chu Mohan is fortunate to have such a brave and strong woman to go through the ups and downs with him.

During this time, they experienced too many joys and sorrows together, and Chu Mohan gradually realized that his feelings for Gu Qianning had already surpassed friendship. And Gu Qianning also felt unprecedented warmth under Chu Mohan's protection. The two held hands tighter and tighter, their hearts filled with happiness and sweetness.
