In October, when the cold wind was bitter and the once lush trees had fallen and the dead branches and leaves had added a sense of solemnity to the boundless land, a caravan passed by the foot of the mountain, and they turned their eyes to the mountains and forests again and again, only the warm sun could slightly melt the cold they suffered.

"Hurry up, everyone, this area is not very peaceful!" said an old businessman, who turned to greet his companion, his face covered with the traces of wind and frost left by the years, and his worries were particularly dense because of this.

"Alas!" Hearing this, the merchants who accompanied them all sighed helplessly, they knew that the old merchant was referring to the Huangguwala gang of the Shanjing tribe who had fallen into the grass here not long ago, this group of bandits relied on being in the "neutral" zone to act recklessly, plundering the merchants and even the government dared to provoke, once they encountered this evil bandit, even if they did not die, they had to shed their skin.

"Fifth Uncle, isn't there Uncle Bai and Uncle Zhao in our caravan? What are some little thieves to be afraid of?" But a little girl sitting on a donkey cart asked curiously with wide eyes, her eyes were dark and very bright, but her face was frozen purple by the winter wind, even so she still looked at the surrounding scene curiously, everything she saw along the way made her extremely new.

"Girl, that's not a little thief, it's the official government...... Hey!" The merchants said helplessly, the dignified state government was unable to clean up a group of bandits, how could this be said to this innocent little girl? As for Uncle Bai and Uncle Zhao, who were the dart masters invited by the caravan, it was not a problem to clean up ordinary beasts or path cutting thieves with the peak cultivation of the Thousand Forging Realm, but in the face of tens of thousands of bandits, their strength was not useful at all.

Thinking that the Dawu Dynasty was founded for a thousand years, the north rejected Baidi, the east resisted the wolf, and the Kunpeng sailors were the largest and strongest dynasty in the world, but why were there still thieves and robbers in such a powerful country? Why was the dignified state capital stumped by a mountain elder who failed in a rebellion, and why were those tens of thousands of mercenaries, cities and families with golden bodies, Linghua, and even Tianxing realm powerhouses sitting in the city and family watching the rebellion wreaking under their noses and being indifferent?

These merchants did not understand, they only understood that they had to get out of this dangerous place as soon as possible, and if they encountered robbers, they would either die or lose their fortunes, and years or even a lifetime of hard work would be wasted.

The merchants on horseback urged their mounts, and the walkers gritted their teeth and quickened their pace on this cold day, and as they were about to leave the mountains, a shout made their hearts freeze into ice and fall to the bottom.

"Where is the guy who doesn't have long eyes, who dares to break into the territory of our king?" Thieves armed with knives, guns, sticks and forks suddenly poured out from both sides of the road, directly blocking the way of the caravan, a well-dressed man with a tiger's head and a big knife sneered and looked at the panicked businessman: "Our king is in retreat to comprehend the supreme magic method, you trespass on the holy land and make a loud noise, if you hinder the king's cultivation, can you afford it!"

"Can you afford it! Can you afford it!" As the leader spoke, the bandits also shouted murderously, and raised their steel knives and other weapons to flash a terrifying cold light...... The sound made the merchants' bodies tremble.

You're the ones who really make a big noise, aren't you? Why don't you just cut yourself off and make the world a cleaner place? The merchants cursed but didn't dare to say it, they knew that the time had come for life and death.

"This ...... Brother Tai, we didn't know that this place was where your king's retreat was, so we really didn't want to collide...... Look, can you be accommodating?" said the old merchant in the ranks, who was extremely prestigious, and said to the bandit leader, who was more than ten years younger than himself.

"Phew, who's the big brother of your copper-smelling guy?" The bandit leader spat: "Those who rush into the holy land should be punished with death, chop up the knife and throw it to feed the wild wolves and vultures, so that the sin can be eliminated!"

"Chop it with a knife!?" the faces of a group of businessmen turned white in an instant.

"This brother ......" Although the old merchant was panicked, he was calmer than the others, and hurriedly spoke but was interrupted by the bandits.

"But our king is a magnanimous man, and it is not necessary to put the blasphemer to death. Without waiting for the merchants to breathe a sigh of relief, the leader of the bandits sneered: "But the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped! Today, everyone who can breathe will leave me fifty percent of the goods and property, otherwise I will not want to get out of this Zhu Mountain!"

"Fifty percent!? Didn't you say thirty percent?" The businessmen all changed their faces, they also inquired about the protection fee here, and after paying thirty percent of the value of the goods, they would not have much profit left on this trip, and paying fifty percent would be a serious loss!

"It's fifty percent! One less son will make your head fall to the ground!" the bandit leader smiled coldly, and looked at the merchant and the carload of goods unscrupulously, in his eyes these are all fat sheep to be looted by himself, and after doing this ticket, he will be able to live happily for a long time.

"It's good luck that I caught this group of fat sheep!" the bandit leader observed the merchant's performance with great interest, and at that moment a childish voice broke the dead silence that made people dare not breathe.

"You bad man, these goods are what we use to support our family, why should we give them to you!" The voice of the speaker was crisp, it was a little girl, and this sudden questioning shocked all the merchants, and the woman in the car quickly covered her daughter's mouth and lowered her head in horror.

The mountains and forests were silent for a long time, until the malicious voice sounded again.

"What a lovely girl. The bandit leader licked his lips and looked at the girl and the woman with a different greedy gaze: "And this girl has a different appearance, hmph, you fools are quite nourished." ”

"Listen, today the uncle not only wants fifty percent of your goods, but also all the women here, if you dare not obey, they will slaughter you all and feed the wolves!"

"Hand over the woman!" Hearing the leader's words, all the minions were excited, they raised their weapons higher, and stared at the few women in the caravan with red eyes, and the frenzy and savagery in their eyes frightened the girl to tremble, and the woman hugged her daughter tightly, but she was not terrified?

"Brother Tai, this is ......" The old businessman's face also changed, these two conditions can't be agreed to no matter what!

"What is it? You old dog can't die?" the bandit leader immediately roared, and the tiger head knife that haunted the yellow flame slashed out, directly cutting off a large tree, which made the merchants even more frightened.

This bandit leader actually has a stone spirit realm cultivation!?

"This brother, can't you be accommodating......" A middle-aged businessman said with a pale face, he was the girl's father, how could he hand over his wife and daughter?

"What's accommodating, since you don't want to break the fortune and eliminate the disaster, then die obediently!" The bandit leader sneered and raised the tiger head knife of the surging yellow flames: "Brothers, give it to me, and kill all except women!"

How could this be? The sudden outbreak of the bandits shocked all the merchants, and they could not have imagined that the other party would act without saying a word; under normal circumstances, it should not be necessary to continue negotiations and negotiate the tolls?

The idea of the merchants is actually the same as that of the thief leader Huang Guwala, although Huang Guwala is a Shanjing tribe, but as a former clan elder is also quite far-sighted, he understands that if the passing merchants are killed and robbed, no one will dare to come, so he will naturally not do the thing of killing chickens and eggs, so it is stipulated that all merchants who pass through their own territory can be safe and sound as long as they pay the "toll", so that the water can maintain long-term survival.

But his subordinates don't think so, for they are the ones who grab their own, and how can they be willing to take only half a cart of goods when they see a cart of goods in front of them? They should snatch them all away, and then live a life of eating meat and drinking a lot! In this case, although they collect tolls and let the merchants go according to the orders of their superiors, they always want to find an opportunity to make a big deal, and the slight resistance of the merchants at the moment is their reason!

Seeing the green light in his eyes, the bandits who were like wolves rushed towards him, and the merchants were all confused, but they made different moves between life and death.

"Brother Tai, the king, can't you discuss?"

"I'm willing to hand over half of the goods, don't kill me!"

"It's all the girls of the Deng family who talk nonsense that has today's disaster!"

"Don't be afraid, fight with them!"

"Leave the cargo alone, run for your life!"

The caravan employs a dart master, and the merchants and their servants who walk outside all the year round are also equipped with weapons and some martial arts, and if they really want to fight, they may not lose to this young thief, but there will be casualties in the battle, how can the merchants who have no worries about food and clothing be willing to fight with the thieves who lick the blood from the knife? Not to mention that if the battle attracts more enemies, then they will die without a place to bury!

For a time, some merchants begged for mercy from the bandits, some tried to escape, and there were very few who wanted to resist.

"Run!" The merchants who were driven by this thought accounted for the majority, they knew that the bandits were all vicious, and even if they begged for mercy, they might not be able to survive, but when they rushed in the direction they came, they only heard the shouts to kill the heavens, and another group of bandits killed them from the rear, completely blocking their retreat!

"Kill all the women except them!" The thieves raised their knives and forks high, their eyes glowing green, and their saliva flowing, more hideous than the beasts in the mountains.

In their eyes, these people who were born with them were not of the same kind at all, but only pigs and sheep for them to slaughter for pleasure and eat their flesh and bones.

"It's over!" the merchants looked dead, they had foreseen the end of being killed by the bandits, exposing their bodies to the wilderness.

"Dad, mother, I'm afraid!" the girl curled up in her mother's arms, listening to the thieves' cries and crying.

"Don't be afraid, Qi'er, Daddy won't let the bad guys hurt you. The middle-aged man rode his horse and said softly, but the woman's eyes were full of tears when she heard this.

She knew that her husband would not be able to stop the wolf-like bandits, and this promise meant that he would end the lives of his wife and daughter himself before they were humiliated!

This is indeed a better ending than life is worse than death, but why is God so unfair to break up their happy family?

The naïve girl didn't know what her parents thought, she really thought that her father could protect herself, so she obediently stopped crying and poked her head to see those fierce and vicious bad people approaching, could it be that her father would be like the grandfather of the golden body realm in the county, shining with golden light, and driving away all these bad people? Her eyes were shining, but the man beside her clenched the knife, and his finger joints were as white as bones.

Roaring bandits, desperate merchants, raised butcher knives...... Everyone understands that a massacre is about to begin.

But at this moment, a sudden sound caused the thieves and merchants to look up in unison, and they saw in astonishment that it was dark!
