Chapter 016: Night Attack on the Black Mist Stone Forest One
Listening to the footsteps, he had a premonition, and sure enough, soon his grandfather appeared in sight, looking panicked.
"What's going on?" he said, seeing Qi Lan, "Oh, Xiaolan, you're back, what the hell is going on......? ......" He didn't dare to say what he thought in his heart.
"Grandpa, you're right, I'm afraid most of the people in the village have been killed. Qi Lan said with certainty.
Grandpa had an explosion in his head, he almost didn't stand firm, he couldn't breathe, and said hurriedly: "What...... It's true! You're all right. ”
Grandpa checked on the three of them in a panic to make sure they were safe and sound, and only then was he slightly relieved.
"Let's get out of here quickly, or those bad guys will be in trouble again. Grandpa went into the house to clean up, and left the village quickly with the three of them.
"Where are we going?" Qi Lan asked.
Grandpa said: "Go to the city first, let the city lord protect us, this matter must be reported, and let the guards arrest all those people." ”
A group of four of them walked on the road to Van City, talking about their thoughts and guesses.
"Whoever they are, I'm going to make them pay. Qi Lan said.
"Don't be a child, you're just a nine-year-old kid, and you go to school like any other child, how can you fight those vicious people. Grandma said that she thought Qi Lan was just talking casually, but Qi Lan did have the idea of punishing the villains in her heart.
"That's it, listen to your grandmother," Aunt Liu said, "although Auntie knows that you must have learned great skills in Baotang, but you must know that those people are murderous without blinking, and you will definitely not be able to deal with them." ”
Qi Lan didn't have words, he also needed to know the information about the villains, and if he had the chance, he didn't mind cleaning them up with his own hands.
When the four of them came to Fancheng, the news had spread, and some of the people on the street had unnatural faces and were walking in a panic.
"Have you heard, Kimura, that small village in the southwest, I heard that it was slaughtered. Someone whispered.
"When I heard that, it seemed that no one had escaped, they were all dead, and the blood was flowing like a river, and the heads were piled up as high as a mountain, and I heard from people who had been there, it was terrible. ”
"Also, I don't know who has such a great hatred and kills so many people at every turn. It's horrible. ”
"Alas, in this day and age, if there is no peace outside the city, is there peace in the city?"
......
The four of them listened to the discussions of passers-by, their sad emotions could not be suppressed, and the grandparents obviously remembered the familiar villagers, and they couldn't stop their tears from falling.
"Let's go to the lord of the city to report the news. Grandpa said with a grim face.
"Let's go. ”
The group came to the city lord's building, and after being reached by the guards, they entered it, and were answered by the city lord himself.
As soon as they sat down, the Lord of Horse City came.
Dressed in gorgeous clothes, the face of the city lord was very ugly.
"Are you the survivors of Kimura?" asked Lord Majo.
Qi Lan and the others introduced themselves, and then conveyed what they had seen and heard to the Lord of Ma City.
"Alas, what a damned bandit. Lord Ma City scolded, "It's a time like this, otherwise it's ......"
Qi Lan seemed to have a hidden meaning when he heard this, so he asked, "City Lord, forgive me for daring to ask, why didn't you send guards to follow you?"
"If you don't know anything, sit down first, serve tea ......"
The Lord of Ma City told Qi Lan that they had learned about the situation in Fan City. It turns out that the two forces in Fancheng have been fighting incompatibly recently, and if the guards leave at this time, I am afraid that there will be a great chaos and harm to others. As for the gang of bandits, they are a wandering gang, and after they succeed, they will leave and hide in the deep mountains and forests again, with the power of a city, it is difficult to exterminate, and they can only report to the state capital.
"This is not the first time they have done evil, I didn't expect to pick on our Fan City this time. Alas, it was also me, the lord of the city, who was ineffective in my work, and failed to prevent this disaster. ”
From the Lord of the Horse, I learned that the bandits had been hiding in the nearby stone forest, and they would leave the place after a little renovation. They numbered about a hundred, all armed with weapons such as broadswords, and only a few of Kimura fled during the attack.
"Are they here for money, why do they want to kill innocent people?" Qi Lan asked what was puzzled in his heart.
"This gang is called the Bloody Hand, and their leader loves to kill, and the slaughter of the village is also their way of gaining power. ”
Qi Lan heard the anger churning in his chest, this is really unreasonable, and heaven is intolerable.
"You said they were in the nearby Black Mist Stone Forest. In an unusually angry voice, his voice was so calm that it dripped.
"Yes, if I could have more men, I would have sent someone to fence it off, but it's a pity ......," the lord sighed.
Grandpa heard Qi Lan's words and persuaded his grandson: "Xiaolan, don't be reckless, they are outnumbered, and you have to rely on the guards to arrest them, you must not act rashly." ”
"Yes, yes. Aunt Liu said.
Everyone persuaded Qi Lan to abandon the idea of revenge alone.
"I've got my own measure. Qi Lan said.
Definitely not be able to spare the other party, Qi Lan asked the city lord in detail, the distribution of the strength of the villains, and determined the general plan of action in his heart.
The four of them rested in the city lord's mansion for the time being.
Night has fallen......
It was destined to be a sleepless night, and Qi Lan quietly went out of the city without telling anyone.
He had a plan in his heart that he must teach that group a lesson that he will never forget.
He walked alone, aiming for the Black Mist Stone Forest.
The night breeze was cool, the moon was in the sky, and he went out of the city, only the sound of footsteps accompanied him, and the number of enemies was a hundred times that of him, but he was fearless.
Qi Lan is not a brave man, after understanding the strength of the other party, he has the confidence to succeed, the most unlucky, and he is quite sure that he will retreat.
"Black Mist Stone Forest, I'm here!Villain, prepare to tremble!"
Taking advantage of the night, Qi Lan touched the periphery of the Black Mist Stone Forest.
"Well, this black mist stone forest is wrapped in an unknown black fog all day long, I heard that this black fog has a healing effect, it is very peculiar, this gang of bandits chose the right place to rest here, just let me sneak over without being noticed. ”
He took out a yellow talisman and attached it to his feet. This is a light talisman that makes him walk without sound, and is an excellent aid for stealth.
Qi Lan quietly groped in the stone forest, and sure enough, there was a thick fog around him, and his vision was restricted, so he was relieved and boldly searched for the whereabouts of the bandits.
"Huh? There's fireworks there. ”
In the thick fog, a firelight caught the eye.
"It's so bold, it's not even afraid of the government's pursuers at all. Silently, he touched the firelight and saw his surroundings clearly. It was a low clearing, surrounded by vegetation, and the bandits rested in the clearing, without the slightest vigilance.
Qi Lan estimated that there were about eighty-ninety people on the other side, and the bandits standing guard were asleep against the tree, not noticing his arrival at all.
He took out the fire talisman he had made in the treasure hall, and the number was staggering.
"Just in handy. He ignited the fire talisman and scattered it in the grass around the clearing, moving quickly around the clearing, and soon the fire ignited.
"Why does it smell like fireworks?" a gangster woke up and looked around, "Oh my God!
"Hehe, it's late. Qi Lan said secretly.
The clearing was already surrounded by fire, and it was burning bigger and bigger. The bandits shouted in panic, pushed each other to wake each other, and then fled.
"We've been ambushed!" someone shouted.
"I don't know how many enemies there are?
"Stay quiet!" A majestic voice sounded, Qi Lan followed the voice, the man looked like the leader of the bandits, and gathered the clueless bandits at once.
"Whoever they are, don't try to deal with us, brothers, get out of here first. The leader commanded loudly, and the bandits fled in an orderly manner towards the place where the fire was small.
Qi Lan didn't expect the prestige of the other party's leader to be so great, and to clean up this group of rabble properly, it ruined her plan to disrupt the other party.
Anyway, it was time for him to make a move, Qi Lan covered himself with a wet cloth towel and jumped out of the invisible place.
"Hey, damn thug!" he shouted at the other.
"Where's the little bunny? The bandits shouted.
"Could it be that you set the fire?" The leader was shocked, looked at Qi Lan, and saw that he was only alone, and there were no reinforcements behind him, and he couldn't help laughing, "Okay, so bold, let Lao Tzu dissect you alive!"
Some of the other bandits were choked by the smoke and couldn't leave, and some of them stayed where they were, wanting to see how the leader killed this boy who didn't know the height of the sky.
The leader held a big knife, jumped into the air, and slashed towards Qi Lan.
"It's exactly what I want. Qi Lan's original intention was to kill the other party's leader, after all, there were many bandits, and if they were encircled, it would be very dangerous, all he could do was to take advantage of the chaos to kill the other party's leader and thwart the arrogance of the bandits.
"What a big knife!" Seeing the other party killing, Qi Lan laughed angrily.
"This kid is weird!" the leader was suspicious, and the movements of his hands remained unchanged, "let me kill him with a knife, and I don't care what kind of demons and monsters he is." ”
Before Qi Lan went to the treasure hall, he was already familiar with ordinary martial arts moves, and he was comfortable with these ordinary attacks, whether it was dodging or attacking, even against superb martial artists, he had the confidence to fight alone without falling behind.
"Die!" the leader slashed with a sword!
"Why can't you hit?" the leader was surprised, Qi Lan disappeared under his nose, and reappeared.
"Is it really a ghost?" he said in his heart, "Lao Tzu has been a ghost all his life, and the ghost who died under the knife does not know how many, and he has never been afraid of such evil things." The leader became more vicious, and the big knife was swung so vigorously that he couldn't touch the corners of Qi Lan's clothes.
The bandits watching the play also felt strange, their own leader seemed to attack fiercely, but he had not achieved success for a long time, the strange child seemed to have long eyes around his body, slippery and weightless, his feet seemed to be able to drift, his body seemed to have no skeleton, and all kinds of incredible dodges made people stunned.
"What are you waiting for, come over and help. The leader shouted, and the bandits woke up one after another, and they all grabbed their weapons and came to help.
The leader didn't have the sharpness to start at this time, and secretly said that this kid was too weird, he just wanted to rely on his subordinates to drag the other party and flee immediately, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and if he didn't wait, there would be no chance.
Seeing the menacing crowd surrounding him, Qi Lan smiled secretly, took a step back, and took out a few red talismans from his arms.
Seeing this, the leader immediately retreated, and he was always cautious about unknown things, which was the secret of his life. But the other bandits didn't know it, and they rushed up like a tidal wave.
"Burst the fire talisman, open it for me!" Qi Lan threw out the talisman in his hand, turned into a line of fire, and went straight to the dense crowd.
