Chapter 8: The Bandits

Early the next morning, Gu Chen woke up the three of them, ate some dry food and then hurried.

"Brother Chen, after going down this mountain, you will almost arrive at Qingxi Town," Gu Wen looked at the map and pointed to the front and said.

"Okay, work hard, let's go to Qingxi Town for a good meal" Gu Chen said to the three of them.

At that moment, there was a cacophony of voices from the bottom of the mountain.

There were the neighing of horses, the cries of women, the shouts of scolding, and the sound of unbridled laughter.

"What's the situation," Gu Wen said suspiciously.

"It seems that a bandit is blocking the road and robbing it," Gu Shisan said after running to the front and taking a look.

"Go down and have a look," Gu Chen said and took the lead and ran down the mountain.

As soon as the four of them arrived at the foot of the mountain, the scene was chaotic.

In the middle, several carriages pulled goods, the bodies of a dozen guards dressed as guards fell on the side of the road, and about thirty bandits surrounded the remaining group of a dozen people in the center with knives, and seven of them were holding swords to confront the bandits. A wealthy middle-aged man dressed as a businessman was negotiating with the bandit leader, and several female dependents were crying in fright.

"Please, let us go! I am from the Cao family in Qingxi Town, and our Cao family has filial piety to all the heroes every year! This batch of goods must not be lost, otherwise I will not be able to live." Unless I give you another thousand taels of silver to drink tea, let us go this time," said the merchant pleadingly.

"A thousand taels of silver, phew, when our brother is called Hanako, less nonsense, goods and women stay, and the rest don't want to die, get out of here" A bandit who looked like a leader said arrogantly, this person has a scar on his forehead up to the tip of his nose.

"Yo Yo Yo, what a big breath! Anyway, he is also a Qi Realm cultivator, and he actually doesn't want to be enterprising to do the business of blocking the road and robbing the road, what kind of ability is it to bully these ordinary people, to compete with the young master. ”

"Who is it, who is pretending to be a ghost there, get out of here" The scar-faced thief only heard his voice and couldn't see anyone, so he had to shout to the place where the voice came.

"Young Master Ben has come out, how are you going to go" Gu Chen walked out of the corner, clasped his hands on his chest and said. He was followed by Gu Shisan and others.

Seeing that the highest cultivation of this group of thieves was only two Qi Cultivation Realms, and the rest were just reckless men who were not in the Forging Body Realm or the Forging Body Realm, Gu Chen still didn't take them seriously.

"Hmph, just four little rabbit cubs dare to meddle with the uncle's affairs, I think you are tired of being alive, right?" Scarface breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was only four teenagers.

"Third brother, these boys are not simple. There are three Qi Cultivation Realms, and I can't see the depth of that kid at the head, and his sword looks extraordinary!" Another Qi Cultivation Realm thief whispered to the Scar Man, the most obvious feature of this person is that he has a pair of attractive ears, which is really eye-catching.

"I'm afraid of a hair, so many of us are still afraid that they won't make it," Scarface said confidently.

"What the third brother said is true, but I think these people should be young masters from a certain cultivation family, this kind of person is a big fat sheep! If they can kill them without knowing it, their family will not be able to find us. When the time comes, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money, and that sword alone is worth a lot of spirit stones," Zhao Feng'er continued.

"Then what are you hesitating about, just kill them together," Scarface said greedily.

"But the kid at the head can't see the depth clearly, if it's really a Soul Casting Realm monk, we may not be able to eat it, or find someone to inform the boss." Zhao Feng'er reminded again.

"Well, what you said makes sense, call someone to inform the eldest brother, let's drag a few of them" Scarface also understood that caution was the best, so he commanded Zhaofeng'er.

Seeing that the bandits on the other side were chattering crookedly, and after a while, there was another person running to the back, Gu Chen understood that things were not simple, so he beckoned Gu Thirteen, Gu Wen, and Gu Wu to prepare to make a move.

"Have you said it crookedly, are you still fighting? If you don't fight, let the people go, get out of here!" Gu Chen shouted to the bandits.

"Hmph, since you have to look for death, then don't blame the uncle for being ruthless. Brothers, give it to me, cut those boys first" Seeing that Gu Chen was so arrogant, Scarface immediately greeted the little minions.

Then he took the lead and rushed towards Gu Chen and the others.

"This idiot, didn't you say that you should drag them down! Why did you do it directly?" Zhao Feng'er scolded in a low voice, but at this time, he could only stubbornly beckon the younger brothers to join him.

So the bandits divided half of their hands and rushed towards Gu Chen and the others.

"I'll deal with Scarface first, thirteen, you deal with that trick, Gu Wen and Gu Wu, you deal with those miscellaneous fish," Gu Chen quickly assigned.

Gu Chen pulled out the Flowing Firefly Sword, his eyes were calm, and he quietly waited for Scarface to rush in.

"Drink, kid eat me," Scarface brandished a big knife and slashed at Gu Chen.

I saw Gu Chen take two steps back lightly, and the mountain opening knife was on the ground with the inertial machete, and there was a burst of sparks between the friction between the blade and the stone.

Gu Chen casually stabbed Scarface in the shoulder with a sword, Scarface couldn't avoid the sword in his right shoulder, and blood suddenly flowed down his arm.

"Ah, boy, how dare you hurt me, I'm going to split you in half," Scarface shouted angrily.

Zhao Feng'er, who was fighting against Gu Shisan, accidentally saw this scene and said secretly: "Oops, it seems that that kid is really in the soul casting realm! It seems that he has injured the third brother without using all his strength, and this kid on the other side is not easy to deal with, it seems that this time it will be planted! I have to find a chance to run for my life quickly, otherwise I will have to explain here." As for the third brother, he can only let the boss avenge him. ”

At this time, Scarface swept with a knife, wanting to cut Gu Chen in two.

I saw Gu Chen turn around, and in an instant, he came behind Scarface, and stabbed him in the back with a sword.

Scarface sensed something was wrong and continued to rush forward, trying to dodge the sword with the momentum.

It's a pity that Gu Chen is more than a little faster than him, and the back of the Liuying Sword stabbed into Scarface's back with ease.

Scarface couldn't have imagined that he would be defeated so quickly, and that his opponent didn't show his true strength at all.

But at this time, it was too late to regret it, and said secretly: Am I, Liu Hu, going to die here this time?

"Don't move, if you move my sword again, it will pierce your heart, hurry up and tell them to stop" Gu Chen said lightly.

Scarface suddenly felt cold, and hurriedly stood with the knife and didn't dare to move, and then shouted to the younger brothers: "Stop, stop." ”

The dozen or so little minions who besieged Gu Wen and Gu Wu were already half injured at this time.

There were already seven or eight lying on the ground wailing, and the rest of the people were afraid of Gu Wen and Gu Wu.

At this time, when they heard Scarface's order, they all breathed a sigh of relief, did not dare to resist, and hurriedly lost their weapons.

Zhao Feng'er couldn't imagine that Scarface would be defeated so quickly, and Gu Shisan's offensive was fierce, so he couldn't find a chance to slip away, so he had to admit and beg for mercy at this time.

"And the ones over there quickly let the people go, and then throw away their weapons and stand over like them," Gu Chen shouted to the remaining dozen bandits surrounding the caravan.

The bandits were shocked, and they were hesitating whether to do it...

"Bastard, don't you do it, do you want to watch Lao Tzu die" Scarface shouted hatefully, secretly scolding these pigs for their brains.

The bandits did the same, and the crisis of the caravan was finally lifted, and the rich merchant ran over happily and thanked Gu Chen and the others continuously.

"Okay, you guys get out of here, don't let me see you again" Gu Chen pulled out the long sword that stabbed Scarface's back and said to him.

"Huh, are you really letting us go?" Scarface asked incredulously.

"What, do you still want to fight?" Gu Chen said casually. He's not a murderer, and he doesn't want to kill people casually.

"No, no, no, let's get out, let's get out," Scarface said spinelessly.

Scarface hurriedly beckoned to the thieves and left with everyone in a gloomy manner.

"Thank you again for saving Gongzi, the next is Cao Rong of the Cao family in Qingxi Town, the head of the Cao family is the brother, and the son can be called Cao Er. If the prince doesn't dislike it, please go to Cao's house to rest and rest, and make up his mind to fulfill the friendship of the landlord," Cao Rong, a wealthy businessman, said to Gu Chen.

"You're welcome, it's just a gesture, we are about to go to Qingxi Town, then we will bother Second Master Cao" Gu Chen waved his hand and said.

"Don't dare, don't dare, where can I afford the title of second master, the son still calls me Cao Er, I listen to it comfortably" Cao Rong hurriedly bowed and bowed.

Gu Chen shook his head and said in his heart: What a strange person, is this the face of a businessman, he is also the brother of the head of the family, he has to grovel so much, but the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce is not like this.

How could Gu Chen understand the sorrow of ordinary people, they didn't have great strength, if they weren't humble in this world where monks were rampant, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to mix it up a long time ago.

Cao Rong warmly invited, so Gu Chen and the four of them went to Qingxi Town with Cao Rong's caravan.
