After reading the reward order, Lingwu looked at Gu Shaoting's head again, and jokingly said to me, if we kill Gu Shaoting now, then we don't have to worry about money.
"Lingwu." I glanced at Lingwu.
Lingwu smiled brightly, did not continue, but glanced at the corner of the reward order, and found that it was the Demon Slayer Pavilion that wanted to offer a reward for catching Gu Shaoting.
"Oh, it's really feng shui in turns, you, the original owner of the Demon Slayer Pavilion, actually ended up like this." Lingwu suddenly looked back at Gu Shaoting and said gloatingly.
At the beginning, the Demon Slayer Pavilion hunted monsters everywhere, and Lingwu counted all the accounts on Gu Shaoting's head, and he was very happy to see that Gu Shaoting had also become the target of hunting.
I think it should be that Hu Hongtian didn't find Gu Shaoting's body in the dark river, so he decided that Gu Shaoting was still alive, so he was searching for him everywhere.
Gu Shaoting showed disdain for this bounty order, and turned around to walk towards the outside of the alley.
Lingwu and I hurriedly followed, and out of the alley, we arrived at the main street of Zhenyang City, but why did this street look so desolate?
In addition, there are some uncollected baskets on both sides of the street, and there is a lot of food in the baskets.
The shops on the street were all open, but when we went in, we found that no one was looking at the shop at all, and we called for a long time, but no one answered.
The things in the store are messy, and there are obvious signs of someone turning it over.
"It's an empty city, isn't it?" Lingwu walked to the back of the store and checked it, and found that the place where the people lived behind the store was also empty.
"I guess I've met a mountain bandit!" After Gu Shaoting glanced at the store a few times, he made a guess.
"Mountain bandits? How do you know? It is also possible that he fled. "Lingwu just can't get used to Gu Shaoting, and likes to raise the bar with him.
And I also agree with Gu Shaoting's point of view.
He pointed to the drawers on the counter of the store, where all the drawers had been opened, and there should have been silver coins in them.
"You also need money to escape." Lingwu thought that I was partial to Gu Shaoting, and always spoke to Gu Shaoting.
I shook my head and pointed to the room at the back of the shop, where the wooden wardrobe was also open, but the clothes in the wardrobe were all there, and they were piled up.
How many clothes should you bring with you to flee, right? Moreover, there were still meals on the table in this room, but these meals were almost untouched, just arranged, indicating that they had encountered an unexpected situation.
And these may just be speculations, but there are scratches of gunfire and bullets on this wall.
In other words, someone entered the store and shot at the demonstration, and the owner of the store was probably taken away by the bandits.
For there is no blood on the ground.
"This?" Lingwu saw the traces of the bullet and nodded slightly, feeling that what we said made sense.
"No, we can't stay here for long, in case the bandits come back?" Before I finished my sentence, looking at the food on this table, I suddenly thought of a possibility.
That is, it is very likely that the bandits did not go far at all, because it is so hot in the summer, but these meals are not spoiled in the slightest, which means that the people here have not been arrested for a long time.
"Let's go!" As soon as I said that, I motioned for Gu Shaoting and Lingwu to leave quickly.
As a result, we were about to turn around and get out of the shop, only to find a group of men dressed in brown clothes with scars on their faces already surrounding us.
They were in the front row, with long knives in their hands, and in the back row, with spears in their hands.
Lingwu twisted his head slightly, and whispered in his mouth: "Oh, master, I've been suffocated these days, and I can finally relax my muscles and bones." โ
After he finished speaking, he was ready to move.
"Wait, don't be impulsive, they have guns in their hands, if they are accidentally injured by a stray bullet, the gains outweigh the losses." After I finished speaking, I decided to follow them out of the shop first.
"Yes, master, you are right, go out and talk about it." Lingwu nodded, walked in front of me and Gu Shaoting, pointed at this group of bandits who were not good at first glance and scolded: "Don't compare, go out and talk!" โ
"Hmph, not a small tone?" One of the bandits, as soon as he spoke, led his men back and retreated out into the street.
Gu Shaoting looked at the sunlight outside, frowning slightly, but he still followed out first, but just walked out of the street, and suddenly a big net fell from the sky, and then I saw that there were more than a dozen demon talismans on the huge net?
The big net caught Lingwu as soon as it was held, and Lingwu's body was instantly pointed, and he fell straight down with a "bang".
The demon talisman is the most effective against demons, but I don't understand why these bandits have demon talismans on their bodies.
"Hehehe, you evil obstacle, Lao Tzu saw it when it fell from the sky, and you, it was said in the bounty order, Gu Shaoting, the former owner of the Demon Deeper Pavilion, right?" The bandit looked at Gu Shaoting, his eyes were shining, as if he was looking at countless silver coins.
Seeing that Gu Shaoting was silent, those bandits directly put the long knife on Gu Shaoting's neck, and then waved their hands, saying that they would take it to the forest on the outskirts of Zhenyang City first.
I looked at them and frowned, but I thought that I couldn't act rashly now, after all, I shouldn't be as fast as the other party's sword.
Maybe if I make a move, they will take up and drop their knives and solve Lingwu and Gu Shaoting.
Moreover, I still had Corning in my arms, and after a long time of hesitation, I decided to follow them first.
Their group of bandits escorted us to the outskirts of Zhenyang City, and as soon as we entered the forest, I smelled an extremely strong smell of blood.
Walking further forward, I saw the trees covered with blood, and dozens of men's corpses lying on their ground.
And many women on the side were not dressed neatly, and even teenage girls were molested by these bandits.
In the outskirts of the city was a makeshift camp for the bandits, who robbed them of their gold and silver, and killed the old men, children, and men, so that the young women and maidens could live for their pleasure, as if they were beasts.
Especially when I saw a few babies on the ground who had fallen to their deaths, the anger in my body instantly burned.
"Big boss, we're going to get rich this time!" One of the bandits who had kidnapped us here shouted at the tent beside us.
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl was pushed out of the tent, and the girl was crying pear blossoms with rain, and her snow-white body was exposed to this group of bandits without any cover, so that these bandits couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
And then, a head poked out of the tent, and he was swearing while wearing his coat.
This voice is very familiar, and when he raised his head, I couldn't help but shake my head slightly.
