Chapter 370: Handan Encounters Bandits (Part II)
After a while, Yang Liang and his buddies came back, Yang Liang was holding a large wooden box in his hand, and two pots of arrows were on his back, Li Yanqing stepped forward to take the wooden box and opened it, this is a dark riding bow, the workmanship is very exquisite, at least a hard bow with one stone and five buckets, two gold characters are engraved on the back of the bow, with the help of the moonlight, Li Yanqing faintly recognized the word 'no feather'.
Li Yanqing quickly got on the bowstring, put on the wrench, and pulled a full bow, it was indeed a bow with five buckets with one stone, a little lighter for him, but it was barely usable, although this bow was not the best, but it was indeed a good bow, how could it be in the inn?
The shopkeeper understood Li Yanqing's doubts, and said with a wry smile: "This is a guest who forgot in the store, it's been three years, I guess he doesn't want it, so he put it away, and the two pots of arrows were also forgotten by the guest, but they are not the same person." ”
At this time, Yang Liang had already thrown the three corpses into the well, handed the three Pu knives to Li Yanqing, Li Yanqing handed the knives to the shopkeeper and the two guys and said: "You go into the house together and hide, this knife is for you, if there is really something, fight hard!" ”
The shopkeeper trembled with fright, "Are the officials leaving?" ”
Li Yanqing shook his head, "Let's not leave for the time being, go and hide!" ”
The shopkeeper saw Li Yanqing kill the bandit without believing in his words, he didn't believe in Li Yanqing's promise too much, but he had no choice but to take the knife with his buddy and hide in the house.
At this time, Li Yanqing instructed Yang Liang again: "You guard the hospital door, I am on the roof, don't work hard if bandits come in, learn to sneak attack, understand?" ”
"Humble duty understands!"
Yang Liang hid in the livestock shed, Li Yanqing jumped over the courtyard wall, quickly ran to the roof, and soon squatted on the snow-covered roof of the front building of the inn.
The front building of the inn was three stories high, and from the rooftop, you could clearly see the courtyard where they lived, less than fifty paces apart, and at the same time you could see the situation on the surrounding streets, the streets were no longer as chaotic as just now, most of the people had found a place to hide, and there were more than twenty corpses lying on the ground, and several of them were naked women.
The bandits came in from the north gate, but did not go deep into the county, they looted the people's property in the north gate area, and across the street was a silver shop, next to the silver shop was a porcelain shop, and the porcelain shop was ignited by the fire, but the fire was not big, it did not seem to be burning, and it was about to be extinguished.
The silver shop was obviously the focus of the bandits' care, and there were many people in it, and they could faintly hear people crying in the silver shop, and from time to time groups of bandits ran by on the street, kicking the door from door to door.
Here Li Yanqing suddenly heard the cry of a woman in the alley next to him, he bent down and ran a few steps, looking down from the far right side of the roof, only to see that in the alley next to the inn, two bandits were pressing a young woman to the ground and picking up her clothes.
Li Yanqing drew two arrows, and Zhang Gong shot them with one arrow, 'Poof! The arrow pierced the back of one of the men's heads, and the thief fell headlong on the woman, and the other was stunned, and as soon as he raised his head, the second arrow also came, and came through the center of his brow, and the thief screamed, and rolled over and fell to the ground.
The woman was so frightened that she desperately crawled a few steps back, and suddenly screamed, and she didn't even care about putting on her clothes, so she turned over and got up and stumbled into the depths of the alley.
At this moment, a group of thieves rushed into the inn with torches, there were at least twenty people, Li Yanqing's heart tightened suddenly, but this group of robbers did not all go to the backyard, but divided into two groups, one group went to the front building, and the other group of about seven or eight people entered the backyard.
Li Yanqing had no choice, he also let go, immediately knelt on the tile, and without hesitation shot arrows at the bandits who ran to the backyard.
The poor eight thieves were all shot by Li Yanqing in the alley leading to the backyard before they could find out where the cold arrows came from, although there were still a few screams, but they did not attract the attention of the other bandits.
Li Yanqing was killed, he simply took the bow and arrow, uncovered the tiles and turned over into the house below, just jumped off the ground, he seemed to hear something, turned around, only to see a couple hiding in the corner of the house, the two looked at Li Yanqing who fell from the sky in fear, hugged each other in fright, and trembled.
At this time, there was a rapid running sound outside, there were already robbers on the third floor, and the footsteps suddenly stopped at the door, Li Yanqing stretched out his finger and put it to his lips and gently shushed the husband and wife, and hid behind the door in a flash.
'Bang! The door was kicked open, and a robber rushed in with a knife and "handed over the money.....
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a flash of cold light, and a human head had fallen to the ground, and the bones rolled in front of the husband and wife, making the woman scream in fright.
"There's a woman in this house!"
Three or four bandits rushed into the house at the same time, and before they could react, Li Yanqing shot as fast as lightning, slashing and stabbing, killing three people in one breath, and the last person turned around in fright and fled, Li Yanqing's short sword came out of his hand and nailed him to the ground.
Li Yanqing pulled out his short sword and walked to the second floor, and as soon as he reached the staircase, he saw a group of robbers walking towards this side with large bags and small bags, two of them were still carrying two stunned women on their shoulders, they didn't realize that the screams upstairs were made by their companions, and thought that they were murders and robberies by their companions.
Li Yanqing shot quickly, shot four flying stones in a row, knocked the four people in front of him to the ground, he roared, waved his sword and rushed up, only to see blood splashed everywhere, limbs flying around, screams everywhere, when Li Yanqing panted and stopped, the ground was already full of limbs and human heads, blood sprayed all over the wall, and the two women who had just woken up were so frightened that they wailed and fainted again.
At this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves on the street outside, and someone shouted: "Old Seven, let all the brothers come out and prepare to leave!" ”
Li Yanqing's heart moved, and he rushed into a room, where there were two slain merchants, he pushed open the window, drew his bow and arrows again, and saw a person riding on a horse at the door of the silver shop opposite, holding a spear in his hand, and was ordering the brothers in the silver shop to come out.
There were already a lot of subordinates gathered around, all carrying large bags and small bags, and many of them were dragging young women in their hands, and they were smirking as they touched the woman.
This group of bandits is already assembling and preparing to leave, and they will inevitably soon find that there are more than 20 people missing, and the inn will be the focus of their search, there are too many people, I am afraid that they will not be able to deal with it alone.
Li Yanqing thought about it, then ran back to the courtyard, turned over his horse, and said to Yang Liang and the shopkeeper who ran out of the room: "The bandits are about to gather, you hurry up and lead people through the back door, and I will go and lure them away." ”
Yang Liang was anxious, "I'll go with the army!" ”
"Nonsense! If you can't do martial arts, it will only drag me down, take them away! ”
Helpless, Yang Liang had to call out the guy and the woman, and followed the shopkeeper to the back door, the back door led to the alley just now, Li Yanqing found that the alley was very deep, it didn't seem to be a dead end, and it shouldn't be a big problem to escape from there.
Li Yanqing urged the horse to run to the front yard, and as soon as he rushed into the courtyard, he heard someone outside the courtyard gate shouting and asking, "Can you be sure that Liu Laosan is entering the inn?" ”
"Sure, the villain saw them go in."
"Fuck, what's going on? Come in with me! ”
Li Yanqing knew that the opportunity was at this moment, so he rushed out of the gate and shouted, "The heroes of Liangshan are here!" ”
The horses rushed out of the courtyard gate, and a large group of bandits walked towards this side in more than a dozen steps, there were forty or fifty people, and in the middle was the man on horseback just now, holding a big knife in his hand, Li Yanqing shouted and made him stunned, Li Yanqing seized this fleeting opportunity, turned around and made an arrow, the arrow was like lightning, 'Poof! The arrow entered the left temple of the man on horseback, and the tip of the arrow pierced through the right temple, and the man screamed, and the spear fell to the ground, killing him instantly.
Without waiting for the others to react, Li Yanqing lifted the reins, the war horse screamed, flew over the top of the bandits' heads, and landed a few feet away, Li Yanqing ran out of thirty steps in one breath, and then stopped the war horse and looked at the group of bandits coldly.
The bandits finally reacted, and glared angrily at Li Yanqing together, a small leader lay on the ground and shouted for a long time, then suddenly stood up and pointed at Li Yanqing and yelled angrily: "The master of the second village was killed by him, cut him with a thousand knives, and avenge the master of the second village!" ”
"Kill!" Dozens of bandits swung their knives at Li Yanqing together.
Li Yanqing's heart was murderous, he wanted to kill this group of people, not a single one was left, Li Yanqing slowly retreated with his legs, and the arrows in his hands shot out quickly, he shot extremely ruthlessly, every arrow hit the thief's head, all of them were killed by one arrow, fifteen arrows were shot in one breath, fifteen people were shot, his arms were really sore, and he stopped shooting.
In just thirty steps, the corpse fell to the ground, and even the little leader just now was killed by Li Yanqing with an arrow, and the rest of the bandits were already frightened.
Where did Li Yanqing allow them to escape, stepped forward and picked up Jia Jin's spear, and chased after him, he rushed left and right, killing more than 20 people in a row, and the remaining more than 10 people saw that they were about to run to the city gate, and suddenly rushed in from outside the city gate A large group of soldiers of the Xiang Army, the regiment surrounded more than a dozen bandits, and more than a dozen bandits had already been frightened by Li Yanqing, and they knelt down and kowtowed like pounding garlic, "We surrender!" Surrender! ”
