Chapter 730: The Masked Strikes to Save the Witch
"I'm not a witch, I'm an astronomer."
Although she had a noose around her neck and her body and face covered with the mud thrown by the people, the girl had no fear at the last moment of her life, and instead scolded everyone in the audience: "I forgive you ignorant and ignorant people, I know that your stupid pig-like brains can't understand what science is at all......"
The people in the audience and the French governor of New Orleans were not smart enough, but they were not so stupid as to understand the word stupid pig, so they all shouted angrily: "Hang her!" Hang this witch! ”
The French governor waved his right hand vigorously with an angry face, and ordered at the executioner: "Kill her!" ”
The tall and sturdy executioner pulled the mechanism on the gallows, and the planks under the feet of the witch in the blue dress flipped to both sides, and the girl, who was not afraid of death just now, screamed and fell downward.
Everyone watching the execution looked forward to the moment when the rope was tightened, when the witch's neck was pulled by the noose, and her vertebrae would be pulled off in the sudden fall.
Just as death was imminent, a masked man rushed out of the crowd and grabbed the witch's legs.
There is no doubt that the person who came out to stir up the situation is Li Nan, and his rescue this time was completely improvised, in fact, even he himself didn't know why he wanted to save this witch.
Li Nan has many shortcomings, one of the biggest is that he is a little greedy and lustful, he always likes to take women with various temperaments for himself, but this time it is not because of this.
This witch who was about to be hanged, although her figure looked good, but the sludge covered her face, no one knew her beauty and ugliness, and Li Nan saved her purely because she didn't want to see an innocent girl die in front of her.
In the face of this sudden change, everyone in the square was stunned for a second or two, and then the officials and citizens of New Orleans realized one thing, someone was going to rob the law field!
Because Li Nan was the only one who appeared, the people present were not too afraid, they just exclaimed and retreated some distance backwards, leaving space for the French soldiers and the witch's accomplices.
"Hey, can you not hold me like this, don't you know that your hands are a little rude now?"
Because of the noose, Li Nan could only hug the witch's legs, his head was on the other party's lower abdomen, and just as he was studying how to save the witch, there were accusatory words from his head.
When Li Nan heard this, he raised his head and asked in surprise, "Do you think it's time to think about this issue?" ”
"I'm a girl, but your hand touched the stern of my boat with bad intentions, what do you want me to think?"
"Aster?" Li Nan said angrily: "You are now hanging by a noose, in order to prevent your neck bones, neck arteries and vertebral arteries from breaking, causing the central nervous system to be destroyed or suffocated, I can only do this!" ”
Li Nan's hurried words about the human body made the witch very surprised: "Huh! You know this, are you a doctor? ”
Looking at the swarming French soldiers, Li Nan teased: "Dear witch, now may not be the best time to discuss my profession, what you should be concerned about is how to deal with those French." ”
When the witch heard Li Nan's words, she shifted her gaze to the French soldiers, and found that they were all stopped not far away, and raised more muskets in their hands in unison towards herself and Li Nan, who was holding her.
Thinking that she had caused a good Samaritan because of herself, the witch said in a somewhat guilty voice, "Oh my God! You go quickly, they're going to shoot! ”
Li Nan looked at the French gun queue and said confidently to the witch: "It doesn't matter, you close your eyes." ”
"Bang bang bang ......" The French soldier pulled the trigger, and after the gunshots rang out, more than a dozen lead bullets flew towards Li Nan.
Although the range and accuracy of the musket in this era and the power of the bullet were not high, they could still easily kill the enemy within more than ten meters, but unfortunately, their target was Li Nan.
Li Nan had originally supported the witch's buttocks with his arms to prevent her from being strangled by the noose, but at this moment, he had to make a change in the face of those lead bullets that were fired.
Holding up the witch's body with one arm with his left hand, Li Nan freed his right hand and quickly connected in front of him.
A series of clanging sounds, and the two fingers of Li Nan's right hand together seemed to have turned into steel, and the bullets fired by the French soldiers flew hard.
This move of the finger of the god is a skill extracted by Li Nan from the system, it is said that it was created by Kato, a strange man in the island country, after practice, it can make the two fingers in the food as hard as iron, soft as cotton, and tremble rapidly.
In the earliest days, this sounded like a strange skill, and Li Nan used it between the beds, which also made many women around him flutter.
As he practiced this move for longer and longer, and his experience of it deepened, Li Nan finally practiced the Divine Finger to the peak of perfection, and this move can really be used in martial arts.
Li Nan used two fingers to resist more than a dozen bullets, this kind of strange thing is rare, so the French soldiers and the people watching the excitement were frightened, and everyone shouted in horror: "That's evil witchcraft!" This witch's accomplice is also a wizard! ”
Catholic countries began to hunt witches in the fifteenth century, and in three centuries, about 100,000 innocent women were put to death, but only some women who were progressive in their minds, beautiful, or disobedient, in fact not many people had ever seen real witches at all.
Now that Li Nan has revealed the Divine Finger Skill, it is really a phenomenon that cannot be explained by common sense and science, plus he is a witch who saved people, so it is natural for those present to associate it with mysterious and terrifying witchcraft and magic.
When the witch is killed, these ignorant people will come to see the excitement with joy, but when an unrestrained wizard actually appears, they immediately panic and flee out of the square.
In the midst of this confusion, Li Nan once again used his finger to fend off two rounds of fire from the French soldiers' platoon gun, and then he grasped the ground with both feet, and his right fist slammed into a huge log on the left side of his body.
This wooden hanging platform had four pillars, and Li Nan hit one of them, and this log as thick as an ordinary person's thigh was directly smashed by his ferocious punch!
Without waiting for the frightened French soldiers to react, Li Nan swung his fist again, this time aiming at another all-wood pillar on the right.
When both pillars were broken by Li Nan with his fist, the wooden hanging platform several meters high on his head began to shake, and then fell in the direction of the French soldiers.
