Chapter 373: We Can Deal With Those Bandits
"So the town in the forest has become what it is now, and all the townspeople are hiding in their homes and dare not come out. The streets were deserted and dead silent. The old shopkeeper shook his head helplessly, looking very melancholy.
After listening to the description of the old shopkeeper, everyone silently put down their chopsticks.
Ren Tanqian touched his beard: "In that case, why don't you run away?" ”
The old shopkeeper shook his head helplessly and said, "It's not that we don't want to escape, but there is nowhere to escape." ”
"Guest, don't you know, our forest town is located in the forest. To escape the town, you have to cross the forest. ”
"But in the forest, there are a large number of wild beasts, and there are even legendary demon beasts! Many young and strong people died in the forest while fleeing, not to mention the old and the sick. ”
"And even if we do, we won't have a place to settle down. After all, our ancestors have lived here for generations, and who would want to leave? ”
In the end, the old shopkeeper bowed his head in resignation and sighed desolately, as if he had succumbed to fate and given up resistance.
After a while, the old shopkeeper eased his mood a little: "A few guest officers, tomorrow morning, you'd better set off." The bandits rarely come out in the morning to sweep, and that's when it's safest to leave. ”
Ren Tan Qian counted the days, and then asked the old shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, do you know where the nest of those bandits is?" ”
There are still two days left for the opening of the Wangcheng Martial Arts Conference, so when he encounters this kind of thing here, Ren Tan Qian will not sit idly by, so he plans to solve the gang of bandits and help the town get out of the crisis.
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, the old shopkeeper showed a look of surprise: "Old nest? The guest officer asked what this was for? ”
Ren Tan Qian didn't beat around the bush, and said straight to the point: "We may be able to deal with those bandits." ”
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, the old shopkeeper was stunned for two seconds and did not react.
When he reacted, he looked at Ren Tanqian with a shocked face, as if he had heard the most incredible thing in the world: "You...... What did you say? Can you handle it? ”
"Shopkeeper, please rest assured, we have our own way." Ren Tanqian knew that the old shopkeeper would react like this, so he was not surprised by this.
The old shopkeeper looked at Ren Tanqian with a questioning face: "Even the patrol army sent by Yuzhou to deal with this gang of bandits has not returned." And you group of businessmen, how can you have a way to deal with it? ”
Yuan Xiaofeng said impatiently: "I said you old man, why are you so ignorant?" Do you know who we are......"
Before Yuan Xiaofeng's words fell, Ren Tan Qian stretched out his hand to stop it, and then said to the old shopkeeper with a pleasant face: "There is no other way to do it now, the shopkeeper might as well let us try it." ”
The shopkeeper shook his head with a wry smile, and said to himself: "It's useless, you go and try, and you will die in vain." You don't know how powerful those bandits are. ”

The shopkeeper couldn't help but tremble as he spoke: "All of them are infinitely powerful, they can break trees and stones with their bare hands, and they can walk on eaves and walls, they are simply not human beings!" ”
The town in the forest is isolated from the rest of the world, and the townspeople have been farming and doing business for generations, and no one has tried to cultivate at all.
The shopkeeper is just a grassroots and has never been in contact with a martial artist. Therefore, in his concept, it is inconceivable to walk on foot and walk on the wall, break trees and crack stones with his bare hands.
It is precisely because he has seen the strength of those bandits that the shopkeeper thinks that those bandits are omnipotent and cannot be defeated. After the fall of the patrol army sent by Yuzhou, he was even more convinced of this.
And at this moment, these businessmen, young and old, actually said that they had a way to deal with those bandits, which is simply the funniest joke in the world!
After listening to the shopkeeper's description, Lin Yun and his party were still extremely calm, as if they hadn't heard anything.
Seeing a few people who were calm as usual, the old shopkeeper was completely stunned.
For ordinary people, if they hear the description that someone can "walk on the eaves and walk the wall" and "break the tree and crack the stone with their bare hands", they will be very shocked, and even feel incredible, and they will not believe it.
However, the businessmen in front of them, after listening to this description, were too calm to speak.
Those who should drink tea drink tea, those who should eat vegetables eat vegetables, no one expressed shock, and no one felt incredible. It's as if this kind of thing is normal, and they're used to it.
The old shopkeeper couldn't figure out what was going on with them? Isn't that surprising at all?
"Do you know anything else? For example, how many bandits are in this group? Where is their lair? Ren Tanqian touched his beard and asked the shopkeeper in a flat tone.
The old shopkeeper shook his head helplessly: "I don't know where their lair is, but there must be a lot of them." ”
"Last time, the patrol army sent by Yuzhou to suppress the bandits had a total of more than 500 people, but these more than 500 people have gone and never returned. It can be seen that the scale of that gang of bandits is at least more than 500 people. ”
After the old shopkeeper finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Yun and the others, and the mocking eyes seemed to say: How scared, right?
In the shopkeeper's opinion, from that group of bandits, any one person can easily solve the few businessmen in front of him, not to mention the scale of hundreds of people.
The five businessmen in front of them actually said that there was a way to deal with those bandits, and even a three-year-old child would not believe it.
"So I advise you to leave it alone, and leave early tomorrow morning, lest you be caught by that bandit and be in trouble." The shopkeeper gave everyone one last word of advice, and then turned back to his room.
Ren Tan Qian didn't explain to the shopkeeper again, but turned his head to Lin Yun and the four of them and said, "There are still two days left for the opening of the Wangcheng Martial Arts Conference, and we still have one more day to spare. ”
"Let's have a good rest tonight, and start investigating the lair of these bandits early tomorrow morning, and we must find and destroy them before we leave."
Yun Ruoxi, Yuan Xiaofeng, and Hu Jin all nodded.
Lin Yun didn't object, although he was not a Bodhisattva, and he wouldn't care about the lives of these mortals, but when he saw injustice, he pulled out his sword to help, and it was still not in the way.
What's more, to deal with these bandits, Lin Yun didn't even have to draw a knife. For him, the bandit is simply chopping vegetables.
Of course, the most important thing is that the Demon God Core Crystal relies on killing to gain cultivation. Although the strength of these bandits is weak, the scale of the gang is hundreds or even thousands, and if they are all killed, they can also bring a lot of cultivation.
Seeing that all the disciples had no opinions, Ren Tan Qian emphasized: "If you want to wipe out this group of bandits, you must wipe out their nests and uproot them." Otherwise, when we leave, they will continue to make waves. ”
"So before finding their lair, don't expose our strength, lest we startle the snake and scare them away."
"We got it." Everyone nodded, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
