Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ten bullets were fired at the same time almost instantaneously. When the target was moved over, there was a bullet hole in the center of the target paper. Other than that, there was no other bullet hole.
The shooting instructor went into the shooting range to check it again. After he carefully inspected the bullet hole, he came to an astonishing conclusion that Little Brother Li had scored ten rings in ten rounds, and the bullets all passed through one bullet hole.
The two sisters were stunned. They stared blankly at their big brother with admiration in their eyes.
Li Mu unloaded the magazine and replaced it with a new one. The shooting instructor quickly changed a target paper and stepped aside respectfully.
Little Brother Li raised his gun for the second time, but his expression became more and more solemn. He wasn’t proud at all.
"Oh, you are here. I’ve been looking for you everywhere!"
There suddenly came a woman's voice from behind him. After hearing this voice, Li Mu's momentum suddenly weakened, and he quickly put down the gun and turned to look at her.
Two women, one old and the other young, suddenly stood behind him.
"Xingyue… Xingyue!"
"Why are you stuttering? Am I that scary?"
"No, no, who is this lady?"
"My mother!"
Li Mu's head buzzed, and he subconsciously murmured, "Mother..."
"Well, it’s good you have a conscience and call me Mother!"
"No, I mean, are you Xingyue's mother?"
"Nonsense! Of course, I am Xingyue's mother. Why? Do you have a problem with it?"
"No!" Li Mu was sweating profusely, not as calm as he had been just now.
"Mother, don't be mad at him. Brother Mu didn't mean that."
"I know that's not what he meant. I'm just angry. My daughter is a good girl. Why did you abandon her after you dated her? Bastard! You have ruined my daughter's reputation. Don't you feel guilty?"
Third Grandmother didn't want to say these words at first, but after seeing Li Mu, she somehow couldn't help but say them out.
Li Mu blushed and bowed deeply, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'm sorry I’ve disappointed your daughter Xingyue!"
Shen Xingyue was anxious and tugged at her mother's sleeve. The latter took the hint and knew that it was not the time to accuse him, so she snorted coldly and said to Li Mu, "Stand still and let me take a closer look!"
Li Mu quickly straightened up, not daring to move at all.
The Third Grandmother looked at him carefully, and then touched his face, but Li Mu still didn't dare to move at all when the old lady rubbed his face.
The old lady smiled and said easily, "You two, go talk to each other. I'll play here for a while."
After hearing her words, Li Mu hurriedly walked outside.
"Come back!" Third Grandmother shouted.
Little Brother Li ran back quickly, "What can I do for you, Auntie?"
"What happened to your ear? Why do you only have one ear?"
"It was shot by a bullet the other day!" Li Mu answered honestly.
"That's why you practice shooting?"
"Yes, to be honest with you, Auntie, I feel that no matter how good I am, I’m not as powerful as bullets. I’m going to always carry a gun from now on."
"Well, you're right to think so. After practicing, you can also teach Xingyue. She's not good enough, so she can only rely on guns to defend herself in the future."
"No problem. I will definitely train Xingyue to be a sharpshooter."
"Okay. Well, don't call me Auntie. What do you want to call me?"
Little Brother Li was sweating again.
Shen Xingyue didn't help him. Instead, she looked at him expectantly, not to mention her friend Zixing. She hid away and watched the show with a smile.
Little Brother Li was so tortured by the old lady. Suddenly, he had an idea and asked tentatively, "If you don't mind it, I’d like to worship you as my adopted mother. What do you think?"
"Okay!" Third Grandmother happily agreed, “But don't call me adopted mother, because it sounds like a curse. Just call me mother!"
"Mother!" Li Mu called her happily. He knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed three times.
"Good!" Third Grandmother happily nodded and helped him to his feet, "Go for a walk with Yueni, and we'll talk later!"
Li Mu was greatly relieved and hurriedly left the shooting range with Shen Xingyue.
Third Grandmother was very satisfied with the result, and said cheerfully to her two apprentices, "You guys have also started to practice shooting?"
"Yes!" Shen Ming'er said hurriedly, "Master, guess which of us is better!"
"Do I still need to guess? It must be my son. Am I right?"
Your son? Oh, her new son!
Shen Zixing asked quietly, "Master, aren't you going to marry Sister Xingyue to Brother Mu?"
Third Grandmother smiled mysteriously and said meaningfully "Don't worry. Everything has its days. Hasn't he already called me mother now? The rest can be left as it is."
The two young ladies were impressed by their master’s trick.
Third Grandmother was flattered by her apprentices and felt somewhat proud. When she saw a target paper next to her, she picked it up.
"Who did it?"
Shen Ming'er said with a smile, "Your son!"
“Show some respect, or your big brother will beat you!"
Hearing that it was Li Mu's target paper, Third Grandmother held it up to take a closer look.
"It's pretty accurate. Why is there only one bullet hole? How many shots did he fire?"
"Brother Mu fired ten shots!"
"Nine shots missed the target. Well, this result is not very good!"
The two young ladies didn't explain, but looked at their master and kept smiling.
Third Grandmother pretended to be angry and said, "You two silly girls, why are you smiling? Aren’t I right?"
A shooting instructor couldn't help but say, "Auntie, look more carefully. Li Mu's bullets were perfectly accurate in ten rounds, so there is only one bullet hole left."
Third Grandmother was taken aback and hurriedly looked at it. After a while, she murmured, "My son is really good with his marksmanship."
Shen Ming'er smiled tenderly, "Master, it’s the first time Brother Mu has practiced shooting a target, and this is also the first shot he’s fired."
"Really? Well, it's really extraordinary. Of course, if he's not good enough, he doesn't deserve to be my son."
The two young ladies were amused and giggled. After looking at each other, they immediately began to praise their master and encouraged her to try her skills.
Third Grandmother was tempted, but she hesitated whether she should have a try.
The shooting instructor presented a pistol respectfully and said politely, "Auntie, why don't you try it too and let us juniors open our eyes?!"
Third Grandmother took the pistol, looked at it repeatedly, weighed it in her hand again, and said with a smile, "I'm not used to using a pistol. I like rifles, but there's no problem with pistols. Since you guys want to watch, I'll make an exception today and show you how powerful I am!"
With that, she held the pistol in her hand, leveled it to aim at the front sight, lowered it, and raised it again. She repeated it five or six times. The last time when she raised it, her finger pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang! It was also a ten-round combo that emptied a magazine.
When the target paper was moved over, it turned out to be ten rings in ten rounds too, eight of which were in one bullet hole, and the remaining two bullet holes almost overlapped with it.
Everyone applauded loudly. The Lin Family members present had their eyes opened today. Both Li Mu and his newly worshipped adopted mother were sharpshooters. They were really impressed by their marksmanship.

Everyone thought to himself, no one would dare to shoot with Li Mu in a fair situation, because basically, this person would have been sentenced to death.
There was a park near the shooting range. Li Mu and Shen Xingyue strolled along the boulevard, and both of them were too shy to speak first.
In the end, it was Shen Xingyue who took the initiative to say, "You keep waking. Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"Oh, yes, are you used to living here? Have they treated you well?"
Shen Xingyue complained, "After holding it for a long time, you asked me if I was used to living here? You’re really something!"
"I, I don't know what to say."
"Idiot, can't you say something nice to make me happy?"
"I'm sorry, Xingyue, it's all my fault. I'm sorry!"
With that, Li Mu gave Shen Xingyue a deep bow.
Miss Shen said unhappily, "What are you doing? I don't need your apology!"
Li Mu replied solemnly, "Xingyue, I know that you are kind-hearted and will never give me a hard time, but I have always wanted to formally apologize to you. If I don't say it, I will never let it go."
Shen Xingyue nodded and said softly, "Okay, I accept your apology and forgive your behavior. Let bygones be bygones. Neither of us should mention it again in the future."
"Okay, it's over. We will still be good friends in the future!"
"Good friends? You are really forgetful. Can we still be friends?"
Li Mu was stunned, then suddenly realized, and quickly said, "Yes, yes, we’re not friends, but family members. I will be your big brother in the future. Don't worry, sister, I’ll protect you, and no one will dare to bully you!"
"I believe you!" Shen Xingyue smiled tenderly.
Then she changed the subject and asked in a low voice, "Brother Mu, tell me the truth, do you think the Lin Family will let you go?"
Li Mu's expression became serious. He looked around and nodded at the depths of the woods.
"Let's talk over there!"
The two came to a pavilion in the forest. After they sat down, Li Mu said, "To tell you the truth, I've always been worried. Lin Wan will not hurt me. But as for others, it's hard to say!"
"Yeah, apart from Lin Wan, there are probably a lot of people who want to kill you!"
"I don't blame them. After all, I made the first move. In the previous catastrophe, many people died in the Lin Family. They should hate me."
Shen Xingyue was noncommittal, and said to him, "You chose to take action as a last resort. In the end, it is Lin Wan's responsibility. She condoned the lawlessness of her clan and they even brought guns to their clan meeting and didn't take her seriously. It is her fault, isn't it?"
Li Mu was certainly aware of the truth, but now it was meaningless to discuss whose responsibility it was. People had already been killed and the feud has been forged, so he'd better think about what to do in the future!
