Chapter 62: The Massacre
Guangpingji, located in a market town on the border of Yuezhou, its southwest direction is Nanyue Mountain, is the only way to turn over the South Yueshan, business travel to and from here to rest, and then over the Nanyue Mountain into Lingzhou, located in the main road, Guangpingji has been very prosperous, now Lingzhou there is a developed business, business travel continues, Guangpingji is also more and more lively, built a number of new houses, opened a few new inns.
In the past few days, the locals in Guangpingji have felt something strange, there are many unfamiliar faces in the town, the inns in the town are full, and even some vacant houses have been rented out. There are also some petty traders, fortune tellers, jugglers, carrying burdens, and some who have nothing to do, just walking up and down the streets, following some business travelers to observe, as if searching for something, and some who sit on the top floor of the restaurant all day, and look out of the town from time to time. However, as an ordinary person, I can't manage so much, just out of instinct, I close the door early every day.
Guangping set a famous drunken guest restaurant, in a private room sat two men, twenty or thirty years old, dressed as a martial artist in the rivers and lakes, but if you look closely, the two are not ordinary people in the rivers and lakes of the reckless atmosphere, behavior shows education. The two of them ate and drank in silence, and at this time, two more men came in, and after entering the door, they closed the door of the room, very cautious.
A man sitting here asked softly: "Have you found out, why are there so many gangsters in the town, and many of them are still famous **** characters." ”
"There are people on the side of Shendu who offer a large reward against a person, either to catch or kill, and it is said that this person is going to pass through here, so they all gather here. About a lot of people want to use this person's life as a gift for advancement, in exchange for wealth. ”
"What kind of character is it that deserves to be so exciting?"
"It's just a young man, who is said to be the leader of the Lingzhou Brotherhood, but he is quite powerful, and there are already many masters in his hands along the way."
"Brotherhood...... Is that the brotherhood, one of the three evils in Lingzhou? ”
"It should be. By the way, we saw some people named by Wei Li on the street to be arrested, should we do it? ”
"Don't be busy, let's see the situation, there are so many people, it's difficult to deal with just the four of us."
These four people are not really people in the rivers and lakes, but members of the Xuanwu Wei in the three martial guards of Great Xia, the three Wuwei have their own duties, Shenwuwei handles some affairs of the Jianghu sect, Long Wuwei is responsible for guarding the royal family and important officials, Xuanwuwei is walking the rivers and lakes, arresting some illegal warriors, this time, the four of them originally went to Lingzhou, in order to investigate the masked thieves, I didn't want to go to Guangpingji to find the abnormality here, and saw some important criminals who have been pursued by Xuanwuwei for many years.
The four Xuanwuwei did not act rashly, but quietly watched the changes, observing the every move of the people in the rivers and lakes in Guangping, but Guangpingji was much more lively than before, not only during the day, but at night, some people in the rivers and lakes who came and went were fighting with each other for some grievances, or discussing how to start and how to divide the spoils.
After waiting for a few days, finally, in the evening of this day, a team of ten people and more than ten horses appeared on the road outside the town.
When the group came into the sight of some of the town's people, the noisy bazaar seemed to be quiet, some of them made all kinds of gestures and looks, and then, everything returned to normal, and they continued to do business, and some disappeared into the laneways on both sides of the street.
It was not someone else who arrived in Guangpingji, it was Xiao Tianlei and his party, in the past few days, Xiao Tianlei was not very happy, and he had to work hard every day to avoid all kinds of encirclement. In order to rush back to Lingzhou as soon as possible, a group of people traveled day and night, the avenue was basically not walkable, and the government had to be careful to check it, and the trail was also full of crises, and some famous robbers haunted the place, generally taking advantage of the night to quietly touch the past. It's not good to stay in the hotel, the ghost knows if there will be any accidents when you fall asleep, so you can only buy some dry food, find some hidden mountains and forests and other places to sleep, fortunately, there are many undeveloped areas in this world, but you need to be careful of wild beasts, however, people are much more terrible than wild beasts.
Xiao Tianlei also felt fortunate that he had not exposed his strength before, coupled with his young age, those who wanted his life did not send some real masters, however, those who were sent were also good, and the number of people was enough, most of the time, they could only try to dodge, and the long-range vision of the ice shooter did allow them to avoid many dangers, and the thinking brought by Xiao Tianlei in his previous life and some of the methods he came up with also played a great role.
Some enemies on the surface are not difficult to dodge, but those killers in the dark are more dangerous, making people unguardable, killing people does not necessarily have to be martial arts, village women, the elderly, children...... It can be a killer, and a killer kills by unscrupulous means, and secret sneak attacks, poisoning, etc. are commonplace, and they are commonplace.
Xiao Tianlei's response is very simple, that is, keep a certain distance from everyone along the way, regardless of your men, women and children, people who enter a certain range, if something is slightly wrong, shoot with an arrow, and really kill a lot of people along the way, some of them also died aggrievedly under his cold ice arrows, and searched for corpses, Xiao Tianlei also made a small fortune.
However, Xiao Tianlei did not dare to guarantee that he could be foolproof, and the reason why he chose to take the road of Yuezhou was because Yuezhou and Lingzhou were similar, the terrain was more complex, there were many mountains and forests, which were easy to hide, and there were many mountain roads and trails, which were difficult to trace.
Some of the abilities that use the hero template are also extremely mentally draining, and after so many days, his spirit is also a little tired. However, before arriving in Lingzhou, he did not dare to relax in the slightest.
Guangping Ji, a market town that must be passed through to return to Lingzhou, is also the last checkpoint, Xiao Tianlei has already guessed that he must have gathered a lot of people who want to kill him, it must be very dangerous, however, there are many ways for him to pass through Guangpingji, just using the hero template, he can directly use the Judgment Angel template to fly over, and he can use the Wuji Sword Saint template to avoid some sights and run over directly, he believes that he can catch up with him not much, but he doesn't plan to do so, he has been hunted and killed for so many days, Xiao Tianlei is extremely unhappy, He has always remained calm and rational on the surface, but inside he is like a pressure cooker, as if he is about to explode at any time without catharsis. The most damned people are naturally those behind the scenes, but Xiao Tianlei doesn't know who they are, and even if he knows, it is impossible to turn around and kill those people, so he can only get angry with these people who intercept and kill him.
From afar, Xiao Tianlei saw some abnormalities in the town, those people looking at the restaurant, and some secret posts outside the town.
Entering the Guangping set, Xiao Tianlei switched the hero template, entered the densely populated area, blocked by houses and people, or the 360-degree perspective of the Wuji Sword Master is more useful, it was already evening, but there were still more people on the street, and the expressions of the people who came and went were also a little contrived, Xiao Tianlei could see too many loopholes in his eyes, however, Xiao Tianlei didn't see anything, and the group bought some food on the street, and then didn't stay, and continued to move forward.
"Guest, it's getting late, the shop has good rooms, clean and spacious, to ensure that you live comfortably!" Passing by an inn, a worker greeted him warmly, and he was about to come to pull Xiao Tianlei's horse.
"Get out!"
Xiao Tianlei spit out a word, and directly whipped it over, pulling the enthusiastic work aside, this scene, many people on the street saw it, Xiao Tianlei pretended to glance around, those people quickly turned around, pretending not to see, what should they do.
Xiao Tianlei didn't look too much, it seemed that these people should not be able to do anything in the market town, so he took a group of people and went straight out of Guangpingji and continued to advance towards Nanyue Mountain.
After Xiao Tianlei and his party went out of Guangpingji, many people in Guangpingji dropped what they were doing and ran, some people rode horses and rushed to the streets, one by one holding swords, chasing and going, all kinds of people, etc., I am afraid that there are not more than 100 people, until these people chase and go, there is a group of people behind, there are no horses, but the speed is not much slower, one by one the feet are agitated, and one step out is at least seven or eight meters.
Xiao Tianlei and his party didn't go far, walked a few miles, suddenly stopped the horse, raised the ice bow, and pointed at the grass and branches in front of them is a few arrows, a few muffled snorts, screams, some people fell from the trees, and a few people died under Xiao Tianlei's arrows, Xiao Tianlei shouted, and the group urged the horses to speed up.
A few miles away, arranged into a killing field, there are ambushes everywhere, Xiao Tianlei moved like this, there were people in all directions, Xiao Tianlei shot arrows again and again, and the rest of the Shanyue martial artists also shot arrows separately, Xiao Tianbao was to protect Xiao Qingyang and Xiao Qingyun, while shooting arrows, while rushing forward, the speed was not fast, there was a roar of horses' hooves in the rear, and more than 100 people were killed.
Finally, he ran to a relatively open area, and some waves of people came out in front of him, but Xiao Tianlei did not run, but turned his horse's head and quietly faced those who were chasing.
The men chased after them, but they did not advance any further, but formed a semicircle, and one of them shouted: "Boy, don't try to run away today, this is where you are buried!" ”
Xiao Tianlei said unhurriedly: "I'm just a little curious, there are so many of you, we are alone, how are you going to divide it?" ”
"Hey! Sow discord, don't talk nonsense with him, catch them first, and then, let's each rely on our abilities! ”
"Suffer honestly, suffer less, and blame those who should not be offended!"
"The Brotherhood killed so many of our fellow Brothers in the Green Forest, the Brotherhood didn't give the brothers a way to live, I arrested you today, and I want the Brotherhood to give an explanation!" This group of people is some characters on the green forest road, the brotherhood will attack the robber cottage on a large scale, so that many robbers in Lingzhou have to go away or change careers, in fact, it is also an excuse, in the face of high rewards, who doesn't want to get rich, let alone take this opportunity to become a big man's doorman, and since then he has soared.
Listening quietly, suddenly, a sentence came out of Xiao Tianlei's mouth: "Okay, the nonsense is over, you can die!" ”
Xiao Tianlei's words did not fall, hundreds of arrows were shot around, those who intercepted Xiao Tianlei and his party in front of him basically died at once, and a group of people behind also died at once, some of them were hit by arrows.
"Oh no, it's in ambush!"
"The boy is treacherous!"
"How can there be an ambush?"
……
Arrows are coming, where do these warriors still not understand the situation! They shouted one after another, raised their qi protectors, waved their weapons to resist the arrows, and observed the surrounding conditions, only to hear the sound of some ropes, and some people came out of the surrounding grass and woods, holding bows, crossbows, spears and other weapons, led by some young boys, holding all kinds of blades, forming an encirclement and gradually surrounding.
The person who came was the person who received the Brotherhood, and the Brotherhood's sphere of influence was in Lingzhou, Xiao Tianlei didn't let Zheng Biao and them go too far, after all, other states are different from Lingzhou, and the place of response was set in Guangpingji. Knowing that Guangpingji must have gathered a lot of interceptors, along the way, Xiao Tianlei was discussing with Zheng Biao and them, how to clean up those who dared to intercept and kill him, in fact, it was simple, that is, Xiao Tianlei used himself as a bait this time and set this trap to kill all these people!
Seeing that these people were surrounded by others, those martial artists were also a little scared, slowly retreated, and gradually gathered together, but they saw clearly that there were only hundreds of people, similar to their own side, and most of the fear disappeared, they were more or less some characters, and they had some confidence in their martial arts.
"Damn, I thought these people would be able to give us some color, everyone!"
"Okay, kill that kid first, don't let him run!"
As he spoke, these people's anger was high, but at this moment, some balls the size of a human head flew out of the surroundings and flew above a group of people, and before everyone could see what they were, those balls exploded.
Bang...... Bang...... Bang......!
A series of loud noises, the balls exploding in the air, flames, poisonous smoke, loud noises, and many tiny debris enveloping almost everyone.
These balls are bombs, each with almost five catties of gunpowder, which is also filled with a lot of iron filings, added some poisons, incendiary agents, etc., exploded, most of those martial artists were caught off guard, one after another, dozens of them died at once, and many of them were injured, and most of the living were basically blown up, but there were a few higher martial arts, lifting the Gang Qi body, but such a violent impact, the consumption of Gang Qi was not small.
Bang...... Bang...... Bang......!
The first round of explosions has not yet ended, and the second round has begun, and those martial artists who have the strength of the qi to protect their bodies have also been recruited. After all, the warriors in the rivers and lakes are not generals, there is no armor to protect themselves, as long as the Gang Qi is weakened, the dense iron filings can still penetrate the Gang Qi, not to mention the poisonous smoke and flames that cause damage, and a radius of hundreds of meters has become a dead place.
Those martial artists were basically stunned, but they also knew that if they wanted to survive, they had to rush out first, so they rushed out of the smoke one by one, but the people of the Brotherhood outside had been waiting for them for a long time, no matter which direction, there were many people, bows, crossbows, swords, and spears together, and those martial artists who escaped were injured, where was the opponent, but they were not completely killed, mainly Xiao Tianlei's brothers were mending the knife and giving a fatal blow, the reason was very simple, in order to earn more game gold.
In any case, it was a one-sided massacre, and with the assistance of hundreds of Shanyue warriors, Xiao Tianlei's brothers either individually or joined forces to kill a famous warrior.
"Uh...... There was an ambush for a long time! ”
"It's supposed to be a member of the Brotherhood!"
"That thing they made...... It's like a dragon's roar made by a weapon! It's a secret, how can it get out? ”
"Those young people are young, their martial arts are not weak, and their qi is also very special!"
"It seems that they are going to kill all these people, they are not merciful at all, they are so ruthless and ruthless!"
There were some people in the shadows who watched this massacre, including the four people of Xuanwuwei, they were one step slower, and when they arrived, they saw a completely different scene from what they imagined, those who wanted the life of the leader of the Brotherhood turned out to be the targets of the slaughter, one by one, many of them were still some famous figures in the rivers and lakes, and in the face of death at this moment, many of them were full of ugliness, but whether these people were crying, or being hard, or threatening, they were all killed one by one.
Suddenly, a sound of breaking wind came, but it was an arrow attacking, and one of the four people of Xuanwuwei was hit by an arrow in the shoulder.
"Oh no, it's been discovered! Come on! ”
Even if the four of them thought that their martial arts were not weak, but they had to face the siege of those murderous boys and hundreds of people, there was no reason to be spared, and wherever they dared to stay, they didn't even look at who shot the arrow, and took their companions who were hit by the arrows, and fled quickly.
After Xiao Tianlei shot a few arrows, he didn't pursue, there were many people watching secretly, where could he catch up, he just meant to warn. The massacre is basically over, the next thing they have to do is to clean up the corpses, such a large-scale killing, it is not good to be found at the scene, there are many corpses, if they are not properly disposed of, it is easy to have some epidemics,
The fire was too quiet, and it was more troublesome to dig a pit, but fortunately there was a river nearby, and the corpses were looted, and it was determined that they were really dead, and the ones that were not dead were mended, and then one by one they were thrown into the river to feed the fish.
After doing all this, the cadres of the Brotherhood did not stop, and directly entered the Nanyue Mountain, arrived at a hiding place in the mountains before Zheng Biao and the others, rested for one night, and the next day, the group set off to return.
Xiao Tianlei breathed a sigh of relief, but he was not in a hurry, and slowly returned to deal with some affairs. One day later, Xiao Tianfu sent a message in the private chat system that someone went to Cangshan Hall to find him trouble, and after a little inquiry, Xiao Tianlei knew that it was not someone else, it was Ximen Qingde, Zhao Yuanlang and others.
