Volume 2: A Thousand Miles of Escape Chapter 32: He is ordinary, and he is also great
Even though they knew that the amount of food they asked for this time had increased a lot because of the bandits' deliberate troubles, the villagers had no way to resist at all, or even had the idea of resisting.
They know that many poor families simply cannot complete the food that the bandits demand.
So peace is short-lived, and conflict will come or go.
"Are you sincerely teasing me by making me wait for so long? So many family members can't get it? Don't you usually work? Eat dry meals at home all day?"
Obviously, there were not many missing numbers that could not satisfy the bandit leader, and he was standing in front of the villagers arrogantly and questioning them.
"My lord, this is all we can take, and we really can't take out more. ”
Several villagers had no choice but to beg for mercy in front of the bandits, hoping that the other party would be kind enough to let them go.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful here, you can't take it out yourself, so how about my people go to your house to help you get it?"
When the families heard this, they quickly knelt on the ground in panic and kowtowed desperately.
Is it really a matter of getting some food to be rushed into the house by these bandits?
"My lord, we still have to deal with the taxes collected by the government, and we have to keep them for food, and we still have to live, my lord!"
But in the eyes of the bandit leader, there was obviously no such superfluous emotion as pity, he kicked away a few villagers who wanted to hug and stop him, "Tsk, it's so pitiful, but the master doesn't care if you untouchables are well fed, either take food or take your life, if you die, your money and food will naturally belong to the master, isn't this simple?"
Although it is not good for him to kill these villagers, they are basically pointing at these villages to live, but killing a few occasionally, is it a matter?
Besides, he's already a warrior, does he need to reason with these untouchables?
The bright blade lit up in front of the villagers, and they were silenced for a moment.
This is the suffering of ordinary people in the midst of chaos.
This is the power that warriors are given in this world.
Sometimes, they are more powerful than officials and courts.
The other villagers could only stand by with resignation, only daring to be angry and not speaking out.
There is only one exception.
"My lord, they have already taken out everything they can take, and if they take it again, it will kill them, and you force them to rob them again, it is no different from killing them. ”
The bandit leader followed the voice, the speaker, wasn't it the sturdy man who had just stood in front of him?
The bandits also understand this truth, there is no point in killing chickens and taking eggs, there is no need to force it so hard.
He did this purely because he thought it was funny, and he couldn't hold his face if he left directly.
He said to Liu Tiezhu: "Yo, I never thought that there was someone who dared to speak up, why did you want to rescue these villagers?"
Liu Tiezhu nodded, "My lord, they have indeed done their best to meet your lord's request. ”
"Oh, I know. The bandit leader looked Liu Tiezhu up and down, and then said: "Look at you, who was born with five big and three thick, it's a pity to be a peasant, otherwise, how about you let them go if you are my subordinate?"
Liu Tiezhu naturally didn't allow it, and replied: "The adults have good intentions, but I still have a son to support, and I really can't pull away." ”
"Alas, toast does not eat and drink. The bandit who was rejected on the spot shook his head, showed disdain, pointed at Liu Tiezhu and said, "Then change to a more direct method, I'm afraid you won't dare to take it." ”
"My lord, if you say no, you will definitely agree in the future. ”
"Okay, that's what you said. The bandit leader showed a sarcastic smile on his face, "Let's go through ten moves, as long as you hold up ten moves and don't die, I'll take someone to turn around and leave, how about it?"
There was an uproar among the villagers.
Although they have only heard of the existence of martial artists, according to rumors, ordinary people and martial artists have made moves, isn't that just sending them to death?
"Okay, I promise you. ”
What? Tiezhu actually agreed?
Seeing that the other party agreed so quickly, the bandit leader was also a little surprised at first, and then shook his head with a smile, "You, hillbilly, I'm afraid you don't know what the concept of fighting with a martial artist is, I can make you faint with just one move, do you believe it?"
Liu Tiezhu still just nodded lightly, just like he would entertain Cheng Liang and help Suzaku hide, but he would never let them get involved in the dispute with the bandits, he just instinctively did something out of kindness.
As for whether entertaining Cheng Liang will cause him trouble, confront the bandit warriors, and whether there will be an accident, that is a matter for later.
Maybe that's stupid.
He pulled out a hunting knife that he had been using.
"My lord, can I use this?"
Liu Tiezhu's crispness and neatness made the bandit leader a little annoyed.
Did this stunned guy look down on himself as a warrior? Did he think he was going to catch rabbits?
He laughed angrily and threw the sword on his waist to his subordinates, "Okay, you use it well, I can make you regret it with my bare hands!"
"Good. ”
The anger on the bandit's face was even worse, and the more determined and crisp this man stood in front of him, the more he was hitting his self-esteem.
I, Lin Shang, am already a martial artist!
"Then I'm coming, let you see the gap between ordinary people and martial artists!"
First punch!
"Phew!"
This punch actually hit directly on the hunting knife that Liu Tiezhu was protecting in front of him.
Liu Tiezhu staggered back, the hunting knife in his hand had already been knocked away, and he had already burst into a tiger's mouth, and a mouthful of blood in his throat was about to spurt out.
Of course, Lin Shang deliberately went towards the hunting knife.
A rare human flesh sandbag, it ends in one move, that's too boring.
The second punch hit Liu Tiezhu's chest and abdomen firmly.
The latter fell to the ground, vomited blood, and struggled to get up.
In the third punch, Tie Zhu's arm was broken.
In the fourth punch, Tie Zhu's leg was also broken.
In the fifth punch, Tiezhu lay on the ground, struggled for a long time, and failed several times before he got up tremblingly.
He had a swollen nose and swollen eyes, a bloody mouth, and he had to lean against the wall of the house to stand, and his body was shaky, and he felt like he might fall again at any moment.
All the villagers could see that if there were five more punches, the iron pillar would definitely die.
But they could only stand aside secretly, dejected, and several rescued villagers couldn't stand it, and they were ready to take out the money and food handed over to the government first.
Liu Tong looked at his injured father on the side, crying silently, "Dad, let's stop holding on, it's okay to go home, please, let's go back...... I'm never going to be naughty again, I'm not messing around anymore,......."
His honest father, who acted for the sake of his fellow villagers, looked at his son who was about to rush out to block him, and looked at the villagers who couldn't stand it and wanted to get food.
Only Lin Shang looked condescendingly at Liu Tiezhu, his heart was full of pride, and a rampant smile returned to his face again.
See, ignorant fool, I could beat you all over the ground in an instant!
"What's the matter, can't you move, right? It's okay, I'm addicted to it, if you kneel on the ground now and beg me for mercy and admit your mistake, I won't fight the next five punches. ”
He felt that Liu Tiezhu would definitely do this, it turned out that in the face of the strength of the martial artist, no matter how hard he carried it, he would only have to think, who would be so stupid?
But Liu Tiezhu ignored him completely.
Liu Tiezhu, who was scarred and out of breath in pain, forced a smile towards Liu Tong.
"I ...... It's still ......."
He is a hunter who has lived in a poor country for more than 20 years and has never read a book.
He is not educated, he doesn't know how to reason, he doesn't know what counts as a good deed, he just does what he wants to do, what he thinks is right.
And this scene in front of him also completely angered Lin Shang.
Can it hold on?
Then hold on and show me!
The few thieves next to Lin Shang were also a little unbearable, after all, who was not a villager before, "Little leader, forget it, continue like this." ”
In response to them, Lin Shang gritted his teeth.
"I'm going to kill him. ”
"This ......"
"Didn't you hear me! I'm going to kill him!"
He took a lot of hard work to ask for the identity of a bandit minion, worshiped under the door of the great leader, and became a warrior, and now this ignorant villager, obviously just a villager, has repeatedly challenged him and despised him.
If you can compete with me as an ordinary person, then what is the meaning of me becoming a martial artist!
Sixth punch!
"What?"
This time, he was caught.
But it wasn't Liu Tiezhu who caught it.
Like all film and television productions, our male lead is long overdue.
Cheng Liang personally went into battle and caught Lin Shang's inevitable punch.
When Cheng Liang and Suzaku finished discussing and rushed back to Liujia Village, they happened to see Liu Tiezhu staggering to get up.
For Cheng Liang, in this world, although he has stayed in Xiubei City for three years, the only real confidant is Zi Tingyun, who has an unclear attitude now.
It wasn't until later in prison that Gao Ling, Deng Cheng and others, who also crossed over, and now Liu Tiezhu, this honest and kind hunter in a mountain village, gave him a long-lost warmth.
Take the initiative to help Suzaku, who doesn't know each other, hide, and forcibly pull himself away at the village chief's dinner table, so as not to get involved in the rights and wrongs with the bandits.
In the end, he sent his group away, and he was beaten here......
That's right, Cheng Liang really wants to scold Liu Tiezhu, you are so stupid!
I knew it would be like this, why didn't you keep me yesterday?
After a brief period of contact, the two sides retreated.
Lin Shang's face was full of astonishment, staring at his hand in disbelief, and then looking at Cheng Liang who suddenly appeared.
Although he is just a trainee martial artist, the fracture of his punch just now is a small one.
As a result, the person on the other side was unscathed, this is also a martial artist?
Although he was angry, he was not stupid, and he did not rush to make a move.
He probably knows about the warriors around here, but he doesn't even have a military uniform, so he really can't think of anything.
Just as Lin Shang was thinking about the possible origin of the other side, Cheng Liang spoke coldly and took the lead.
"Stand still, I'll clean you up right away. ”
The words not only shocked the surroundings, but also made Sansan behind him pat the cat's paw on Suzaku's shoulder, "This is the most bitter thing I have ever heard the master say!"
"Hmm. ”
