37. Mountain bandits
As we got closer and closer to Oishi Village, the sun was finally swallowed up by distant mountains.
Shao Yuan walked on the road, and a trace of doubt rose in his heart.
It was already dark, but there was no one in the village who lit the lights.
"Is it because the people from the village haven't come back yet?" Shao Yuan guessed.
Before the demons attacked, the Pingyang camp sent people to inform the surrounding villages and towns to stay away and take refuge.
At this time, the Binh Duong camp and Binh Duong town no longer existed.
Hou Tianlin and Shao Yuan said that the villages near Pingyang Town will be under the jurisdiction of different nearby townships in the future.
Dashi Village was assigned to Qinghe Town.
It may be that the officials of Qinghe Town have not yet come to inform.
Shao Yuan comforted himself in his heart, but at the same time, an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
Slowly approached.
Passing by the iconic boulder at the entrance of Oishi Village.
On the way into the big stone village, the night wind blew, and the whole village seemed unusually quiet under the cover of night.
"Is there really no one?" Shao Yuan was just about to sigh, when several vigorous blood qi suddenly appeared in his perception.
Although most of the quenching veins have been broken now, only twenty-seven remain.
But he can still barely maintain the strength of the second layer of the Qi Realm.
The ability to vaguely perceive blood and qi is still there.
And the few blood qi that appeared in the perception were not vigorous, they were all at the level of the first layer of the Qi Realm.
As soon as he stopped, several figures walked out of the houses on both sides of the road and surrounded Shao Yuan.
Shao Yuan glanced at it slightly, seven people.
They are all strong, with hideous faces and weapons in their hands.
The man at the head had a scar on his face and was carrying a large knife.
"I thought that the people of this village had finally figured it out and were ready to hand over the rest of the finances. I didn't expect it to be someone from the government. The man tilted his head and spat on the ground.
"Who are you?" Shao Yuan's gaze grew cold.
The man looked at the long knife in Shao Yuan's hand and raised his eyebrows, "We're just passers-by, and we're collecting some money from the people in the village." ”
As he spoke, the man took off the big knife on his shoulder, held it with one hand, and put it on the ground.
"Seventh brother, this is the second person to come to the official mansion. I'm afraid that next time, the government will directly send troops. A man with a mace shouted at the man.
"Lao Tzu knows! Chop him, go back and deal with those half-dead people, and we are ready to run away. The man with the big knife frowned, "I thought I could impress the eldest brother this time, but I didn't expect to only loot such a small thing." ”
Shao Yuan, who was surrounded in the middle, listened to their conversation, and his hand was already slowly on the long knife, "What about the people in our village?"
"Oh, are you still from this village?" said the big man on the other side with a smile on his face, "Then you can honestly persuade the people in the village not to hide in the mountains and destroy their wealth and disasters." ”
After the words fell, the man cracked out a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and licked them one by one.
"Otherwise, the villager we have on hand will be killed. ”
Shao Yuan had already roughly judged the situation.
These people who appeared in the village were the gang of mountain bandits who had been wanted.
Their leader, according to intelligence, was a soldier in Xuanmu City, the former capital of Muzhou.
After a demon attack, he became a deserter and left the sixth layer of the Qi Realm.
The deserter later organized a group of mountain bandits called the Sandman Gang.
When the demons attacked, they plundered the belongings of the villagers who evacuated in a panic.
In peacetime, based on the mountain bandit's brother's understanding of the military, he is well hidden.
Wandering around Muzhou, the government has a big headache.
Unexpectedly, there were people from the Sandman Gang who appeared in their village.
Thinking of this, Shao Yuan gently pulled out the knife.
"Alas, the toast is not eaten. The man shook his head, "That's it, the rest of the government will be here in a few days, so I won't be here to spend it." Brothers, did it. ”
The man's gaze immediately turned cold.
The surrounding mountain bandits erupted in blood and rushed up.
Since the leader was a former soldier, he would naturally teach his subordinates the cultivation method of blood qi.
They could also sense that Shao Yuan's blood qi was not high, so they also had the confidence to rush forward.
Facing the machete and long stick attacking him, Shao Yuan moved.
The figure immediately became blurred in the eyes of the mountain bandits, like a wandering ghost.
Ghost Walk.
Although the current Shao Yuan Blood Qi Realm only has the second layer of the Qi Acceptance Realm, the speed of the body method is obviously much slower.
But it's still not something that these untrained bandits can catch.
They only felt that Shao Yuan in front of them had become a ghost, and they had no way to attack at all.
In the next second, Shao Yuan suddenly appeared in front of the man holding the long knife.
Behind him, the other six mountain bandits had frozen in place, as if they had become statues.
Six "poofs" sounded one after another, and there were six more headless corpses and six rolling heads in this world.
When the man saw this picture, his legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
He's not much better than the others.
"Bang-"
Looking at the long knife in Shao Yuan's hand facing him, which was still dripping blood, the child directly let go of the weapon in his hand.
"Good man, why don't you take a step back?" the man's voice trembled a little, "I let go of the people in your village who are still in my hands, and return all the things I robbed, let me go." ”
Seeing that Shao Yuan was unmoved, the expression on the man's face became fierce: "You can think clearly, it's easy to kill me, and when my eldest brother learns about it, you can't keep this small village!"
Hearing this, Shao Yuan finally withdrew the knife.
With a flick of the long knife, all the blood on it fell off.
Putting the knife into the sheath, Shao Yuan said in a deep voice: "Take me to the people in our village." ”
The mountain bandit child was relieved, and his eyes flashed: "Okay!"
"System Prompt: Complete a serious battle and earn 500 experience points. ”
The sound of the system sounded, and Shao Yuan immediately glanced at the system panel.
Shao Yuan didn't pay much attention to it, so he silently followed behind the mountain bandits.
My heart is getting heavier and heavier.
This is the reason why the military has to specially select people who are equally qualified in terms of foundation and temperament in order to enter the army and learn the blood and qi exercises.
Those who have power and evil hearts are far more terrible and more chilling than demons.
The evil cultivators are like this, and the mountain bandits in front of them are like this.
If the realm was still there before the change, Shao Yuan would definitely not let the person in front of him still be alive.
But now he only has the second layer of qi acceptance, and he made such a decision after weighing it.
"The Sandmen. Shao Yuan silently kept this mountain bandit organization in his heart.
While thinking about it, the mountain bandit man had already brought Shao Yuan to a room.
Opening the door, Shao Yuan saw several villagers who were covered in scars and tossed to the point of not being human.
The mountain bandit man was stunned when he saw Shao Yuan, and turned around to run.
