Chapter 33: Human Bandits
After climbing over the small hill, Shi Leiyin and the others found that on the back of the hillside was a cliff about 100 meters high, and the place where the fight took place was not far below this cliff. Looking down from above, Shi Leiyin saw a very typical scene of robbers and robbers. Three large carriages, which looked like passenger cars, formed a simple fortification in a circle against the cliff. Inside the fortifications were about twenty women and children, huddled tightly together. Outside the carriage were seven or eight men holding weapons in a defensive posture, but apart from two well-dressed young men with decent swords, the remaining middle-aged men had only a hoe or a wooden stick in their hands, and they were ordinary peasants at a glance. Not far from this line of defense, a red-haired young man with a sword was engaged in a fierce battle with a bearded man with a scimitar, and the swords made a loud noise when they clashed.
Behind the bearded man, there were about forty or fifty humans riding horses, wrapped in cloth and showing only their eyes, apparently a group of horse thieves. In addition, Shi Leiyin also noticed that there were several corpses walking on the side of the horse thieves, judging from the clothing, they should belong to the horse thieves, and the human voices heard before should belong to one of them.
"Wow, that human looks so weird, with hair on his chin," Jieliya's brainless voice interrupted Shi Leiyin's train of thought.
"That's a beard, a human male will have it when he reaches a certain age," Shi Leiyin explained to the elf, "Also, the voice is smaller, even if they are discovered, they won't be able to get by, but you promised"
"Woo~ that thunder sound told me, what are they doing?" Jie Liya's face was full of grievances, but her voice was lowered.
"It's called robbery, see that group of people on horseback? they're horse thieves, and their purpose is to take money from the people in the carriage over here, or anything of value, food, water, and so on. ”
"What about these two people?" Shui Jing interjected, pointing to the two people who were fighting in the middle, "They are all men, why should they be entangled, are they ......?" Shui Jing's knowledge of human beings is richer than that of Jie Liya, but this is limited to the gender of human beings, and the young men and women she sees the most are naturally young men and women who come to the lake for a tryst, which causes Xiao Shui Jing's understanding of two humans to be together, most of which is based on what to do between men and women, so Shui Jing's second half of the words have not been finished, and her face turned red first.
"No matter what you think, I think it must be a misunderstanding, they are fighting to the death" Shi Leiyin seemed to guess the thoughts in her heart from Shui Jing's appearance, in order to avoid the birth of the first rotten girl in history, he was obliged to immediately correct Shui Jing's wrong thoughts.
"Eun, it's like what the stags in the forest do when they're in heat," added Jie Liya, not to be outdone.
"Estrus, then ...... they" Shui Jing's face turned redder than just now, the original light blue face has turned like an unripe tomato, blue, green and red, in fact, Shi Leiyin is very strange why Shui Jing's face turns red like a human, obviously there are no blood vessels or anything like that, this question has troubled Shi Leiyin for a long time, so I won't mention it here.
"It's not that kind of thing!" Shi Leiyin unconsciously raised his voice, "The bearded man and his thick horse thief want to rob the people in the carriage, and not only that, they are likely to kill them, and this young man and the men behind him want to protect the people in the carriage, because it is a matter of life and death, so they will fight." ”
"Why kill them, aren't horse thieves human?" said Jaria, for no race in the forest would take the initiative to kill their own kind.
"Human beings are such creatures," Jieliya's words made Shi Leiyin stunned for a long time, this comment he had seen in many novels, but when it came out of his own mouth, the taste was indeed different.
Just as Shrayin was teaching Jie Liya about humans, the battle below was nearing its end. The sword-wielding young man's martial arts skills were obviously higher than that of the bearded man, but the difference in the body of the continuous combat guide made the young man stab the bearded man in the heart with a sword, and at the same time, he was also slashed by the opponent's scimitar through his throat. The two bodies fell to the ground one after the other.
"He's defeated!" said the horse thief on the tallest horse calmly, his voice was not very loud, but everyone, including Shi Leiyin on the cliff, heard it clearly, "According to the agreement, you still have a second chance." With the words of the leader of the horse thieves, one of the horse thieves beside him left his saddle and walked forward, straight to the two corpses, and threw them out one by one, without the slightest feeling that one of them was his former companion.
"What a lot of strength" All the people who saw this scene, including Shi Leiyin, gasped, not to mention the young man, the bearded man who was three or five thick and thick counted the clothes and weapons on his body, at least two or three hundred pounds, he actually lifted it with one hand, and threw it out at least five meters or more, and the strength in his hand can be imagined.
"Let's go up together, save Lao Tzu trouble" This strong horse thief didn't even tear off his own face cloth, and pointed to the remaining two young people with swords angrily, "Lao Tzu let you know how to dance and make swords or something, it's just a show"
Chapter 34 Flower fist embroidered legs
When the two young men found that the horse thief had caught the sword they had cut down with his wrist, they knew that this time he had kicked the real iron plate, and the sound of metal and scattered cloth revealed the real reason why the horse thief blocked this attack - the horse thief's forearms were covered with bracers composed of steel rings that emitted silver light, and with the support of the horse thief's strong arm strength, they not only blocked the attacks of the two sharp swords, but also shook one of the best long swords into two pieces. Immediately after, the young man with the long sword unbroken was hit in the chest by the horse thief, and the young man flew out with a mouthful of blood in the sound of broken bones.
In just one face, one of the two young men had been discarded and the other was seriously injured. Seeing that the horse thief was so strong, the rest of the people were all dead-faced, and the three young men were the only ones in this group who had weapons and had a certain amount of combat power, and they were also their last support.
"Sister Jieliya, Brother Lei Yin, let's not watch it, okay?" Shui Jing vaguely guessed what would happen later, and gently pulled Shi Leiyin.
"Wait a minute, there may be a turnaround" Shi Leiyin gently stroked Shui Jing and refused her request. Shi Leiyin's so-called turning point was that he discovered a strange thing in that group of women and children. Most mothers hugged their children tightly, but one silver-haired woman pulled her child in front of her and said something when she saw the horse thief seriously injure a young man. At the same time, Shi Leiyin's instinct from the slime suddenly trembled, and in just a moment, the silver-haired woman and the child gave Shi Leiyin the feeling of a powerful monster, but when he felt it carefully, it was gone, and his curiosity made him decide to continue watching.
Things happened faster than Shi Leiyin expected, and the young man with the broken sword did not fight the horse thief, and in the face of death, he finally chose to escape.
"Hmph, something that doesn't have guts. Since all of you have lost, hurry up and come out obediently for Lao Tzu, if Lao Tzu is in a good mood, I can still leave you a way to live" The strong horse thief did not chase the young man who fled, but just shouted at the remaining middle-aged people.
"We should have one more chance," a young voice walked through the carriage "There are three chances, and now there is a draw and a loss, we should have another chance"
"Hmph, little thing, the mouth is very sharp, okay, Lao Tzu will give you this opportunity, hum, who is on, Lao Tzu will tear him alive this time. The only exposed eyes of the Mighty Horse Thief exuded a powerful murderous aura, sweeping over the middle-aged men with hoes one by one. Finally he found the man who spoke.
Even Shi Leiyin didn't notice when the child left the crowd and came to the outside of the carriage, but the child had indeed gone outside, and had already left the middle-aged people. At this time, Shi Leiyin was able to see some of the child's appearance clearly. It was a very delicate boy, about eleven or two years old, with short silver ear-length hair, wearing a pair of suspenders and short sleeves, and walking slowly but firmly towards the Mighty Horse Thief.
"Little thing, are you going to challenge me?" The fierce light in the eyes of the strong horse thief who got an affirmative answer was gone, "I haven't laughed so happily for a long time, little thing, if you can take Lao Tzu's kick and not die, Lao Tzu will ......"
"Zack, don't underestimate the enemy" the leader of the horse thieves interrupted the mighty horse thief, or rather, the horse thief Zack
"Chief, even if this little thing is born to practice martial arts, he will not be my opponent, you are too careful, right" Zach replied and turned his head, "Hey, little thing, what's your name?"
"My name is Zilde," the silver-haired boy had already walked up to Zach, "I'll do my best to knock you down." ”
"Zilde, right, remember to change a good name next time you are reincarnated" Without warning, Zach kicked Zilde directly. This sneak attack was not because Zack attached great importance to Zilde, but the bad habits he had developed over the years as a horse thief made him do it naturally, and he believed that the next moment, this beautiful boy named Zird would become a beautiful child corpse.
Of course, Zach was disappointed, because he felt that his kick was not only kicked in the air, but also twisted by a pair of small hands, and at the same time as Zack's foot bones made a cracking sound, Shi Leiyin vaguely heard what Zilde said, "What ...... striking skills"
And when Zack screamed because the joints and bones of his body were shattered, Shi Leiyin finally heard the boy's words out loud, "Striking skills are just fists and embroidered legs, and joint skills are kings!" With these words, Zack's neck bone also made a breaking sound because he couldn't stand the pressure from himself.
