Chapter 174: Human City
Xu Shiyang's cold eyes looked this guy up and down.
He is very thin, not too tall, Xie Bao, who is holding his neck, has to deal with it with a little force, and he has to deal with it on his toes, and he is almost lifted off the ground, this small body, it is estimated that Xu Shiyang can give him half his life with a casual kick.
Seeing that he was wearing a white-washed robe and a square scarf on his head, he seemed to be dressed as a scribe, probably a clerical of a certain group
Like all the self-proclaimed literate guys now, this person is very hard-mouthed, and if Xu Shiyang asks a few questions, if he can't answer them, he will directly block them back with words like "at least you don't have to eat people".
"How many people are here"
"No less than three thousand!"
"How many people starve to death every day"
"At least the corpses won't be eaten!"
Lo and behold, here we go again.
This conversation made Xu Shiyang very annoyed.
In fact, what this person said is not wrong, there are very few (not nothing) cannibalism in Jiangnan, and the displaced people still have some hope of survival, even if this hope is actually very slim.
It's just that if any crime can be prevaricated with the lowest and lowest bottom line of "at least no cannibalism", how sick will this society become
"Well, I'll kill you now, and I can guarantee that no one will eat you." Xu Shiyang said coldly: "That's fair."
"Humph! Swear black is white.! The man's mouth was still stiff, but his body was shaking honestly.
"This young master, can you let him go" Another voice interjected.
Xu Shiyang turned his head to see that a short man in a silk shirt, as round as a big landlord in a big movie, stood in the middle of several thugs, and smiled at him:
"My family is new here, I don't know the rules, if I annoy the young master, I will make a crime for you here, I just hope that the young master will spare his life."
"Your family's family, this people's market is opened by your family"
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......, just help the adults in the court take care of the business and make some living money."
"Livelihood" Xu Shiyang looked his ball-like figure up and down, and said coldly: "Your mouth is big enough." ”
"The young master is here to buy a few people" Hearing this, the fat man was not annoyed, but just smiled and asked: "Whether it is a man working on the farm or a servant woman sweeping at home, there is no problem here, just give a hungry meal, it is easy to feed, and it only costs 500 wen to buy one." ”
"It doesn't matter if you don't like it, I have a thin horse blank here, but the value is higher, and there are ...... for five and ten."
The ball gushed about his "goods", but he was also vigilant and did not dare to approach Xu Shiyang's side.
It looks like this guy instinctively feels the danger too.
"The people here, have they signed a deed of sale with you?" Xu Shiyang interrupted his introduction, pointing to the essence of the problem.
The smile on the fat man's face disappeared, he had a pair of small eyes, and said in an unkind tone: "Is there a deed of sale and what does it have to do with you, young master, if you want to buy it, I welcome it with both hands, if you don't want to buy it, I will give you a girl, you honestly go home and sleep in your arms, how about"
"Then I'll treat you as if you don't have one." Xu Shiyang ignored the threat of the ball, and said as if talking to himself: "According to what I said just now, it is the big family in Lin'an who feeds these people, not you." ”
"But all the money they make from selling their bodies is in your hands, and they only get one meal for themselves."
As he spoke, Xu Shiyang grinned at the ball:
"Hey, there's no business."
"Little brother, you're here to steal the deal," the ball gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know which adult I'm doing things for?"
"I have no intention of doing this business." Xu Shiyang slowly pulled out the tiger cut on his waist and smiled at the fat man: "It's just that I don't plan to let you continue to do it." ”
In the human market, more than 30 thugs with face-to-face faces and smiling fiercely with whistle sticks in their hands surrounded them, forming a small encirclement of Xu Shiyang and the others.
"You're looking for death! I'm doing things for Captain Gao Yu! The ball shouted: "Captain Gao, can you afford to provoke it!" ”
Xie Bao turned a deaf ear to this, he gently patted the face of the person at the beginning with his knife, and asked Xu Shiyang: "Commander, do you want to kill this first?"
"Keep this one for now."
Xie Bao obediently threw aside the thin man who was shaking like chaff, and even reminded him intimately: "If you don't want to lie on your stomach with your head in your arms, don't move." ”
After speaking, Xie Bao stood beside Xu Shiyang, and another selected soldier guarded the flank, and the three of them formed a small triangular offensive formation.
"Gao Yu, I think this name is very annoying, today Lao Tzu has to provoke him to see!" Xu Shiyang said with a cruel smile: "I heard that the sword has to be fed with human blood. Lao Tzu hasn't made a profit since he got this knife, so just try it with your tall dog! ”
As soon as the words fell, Xu Shiyang suddenly rushed out first, and the ball-like fat man still wanted to say a few words, but the sharp knife had already cut off diagonally!
"Ahh The fat man screamed like a groundhog, got short, and rolled to the side.
A thug next to the ball hurriedly blocked it with a whistle stick, only to hear a click, and the whistle stick and the left wrist of the thug were cut off together!
"Ah!!h
The terrible scream sounded immediately, but only half of it, and Xu Shiyang once again raised the knife and cut off the remaining half of the scream and the thug's head.
Sharp swords are of little use against Tartars who like to wear heavy armor, but they are extremely easy to deal with these thugs who are only clothed.
Every time Xu Shiyang attacks, he can always split the opponent's limbs and clubs together, and all the thugs are not his generals, he and the two strikers cooperate with each other, like three tigers rushing into the flock, setting off a bloody storm.
About two minutes later, a thug with a nervous breakdown howled: "Run for your life!" ”
The rest of the thugs quickly dispersed, leaving only the ball that was too fat to run, the thin man who crawled on the ground obediently, and a circle of curious onlookers.
Well, and a place of dead bodies.
The one-sided slaughter is over, the thugs are 7 dead and 5 wounded!
"Murder !!"
The battle was over, and the onlookers reacted, turned around and fled in a panic, but it was the homeless people who sold their bodies that didn't react much to the battle that had just ended here.
The human market is not a good place, and it is too normal for people to die here - it is not surprising that the green-skinned thugs often die for robbing business, and the death of homeless people is even more commonplace.
Xu Shiyang glanced at these numb people and shook his head helplessly.
He gently shook off the blood stains on the sword, turned his head and asked the two Xuan Feng beside him: "Are you okay?"
"It's all right, sir."
"If you knew that the adults came out to kill people, it would be better to call a few more brothers." Xie Bao said with some dissatisfaction: "The adult is the backbone of the whole family, if something happens to the adult here, what can many people in our family do in the future?"
"Ah, I really didn't want to kill people at first this time, they have to find out what I can do"
Xu Shiyang quibbled, and then happily admitted his mistake:
"Okay, okay, this time I was impulsive, next time I won't take the risk myself, and if I kill someone again, I will definitely take all the people to do my best."
"As for now......" Xu Shiyang looked at the ball that was paralyzed on the spot, and said with a smile: "Since we have won the battle, let's reap a wave of victory." ”
