Chapter 4: Robbery and Killing
The moon and stars are scarce, and the night is as cool as water.
Since noon, I have been hurrying non-stop, and finally I saw the outline of the city at the time of the time, and at this time there were many people who went into the mountains to hunt and collect medicine, and there were caravans from afar waiting in line to enter the city.
The city was built six years ago, facing the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains, and if someone said six years ago that they were going to build a city here, they would probably be regarded as crazy, but now it's different.
The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is a branch of the Tianlin Mountain Range, the continuous Tianlin Mountain Range is connected from end to end, like a round cage around the place where human beings live, thousands of mountains and mountains, strange rocks, deep grass and trees, plus there are many peerless monsters in the mountain range, it is said that only the strong man above the battle can have a glimpse of the scenery outside. !
Although the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is a branch vein, there are only a lot of wild beasts and demon beasts in the mountains, and they often go down the mountain to make trouble, kill nearby humans, and sometimes even form a beast tide, which is a disaster for one party, and the people are not happy.
There are many poisons and beasts in the mountains, and ordinary people can't organize a team to hunt in the mountains, even if the strong people in the Yingjie period are not careful, they will die on the spot.
In the end, the strongest people went into the mountains to clean up inside and out, and all the big demons were given heads, leaving only a few low-level demon beasts and a large number of beasts that were not killed, so this became a treasure land, and many gang forces wanted to intervene.
And Jinshui City, where the headquarters of the Green Wolf Gang is located, is not far from here, so it is naturally the first to get the moon near the water, seize the opportunity to gain a firm foothold in the city, and become one of the few big forces.
.........
The bumpy road made Liu Yi a little tired, and he couldn't help but feel happy when he saw that the city was in front of him.
Just as Liu Yi was about to walk out of the woods, a rope suddenly pulled up on the flat road ahead, and it was too late to stop.
At this time, there was a sound of breaking the air on both sides, several bows and arrows flew in, Liu Yi had already stepped into the late stage of martial arts, his qi penetrated his whole body, his ears and eyes were clear, and he saw one side of his body, drawing his sword and slashing, and the arrow was broken in response.
Then he pressed his hands on the horse's back and jumped forward, and the galloping horse fell directly to his knees under this great force, the broken bones pierced the fur, and the body rolled forward.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Liu Yi felt wrong, and the ground collapsed instantly, revealing a large pit, which was full of long swords, and when I looked at it by the moonlight, the blue light on the tip of the sword was shining, obviously full of poison, and if it fell, it would not die or be crippled.
In a hurry, Liu Yi grabbed the edge of the pit with both hands, and jumped out of the pit again, and the horse rolled and fell into the pit immediately after, and died tragically on the spot.
There was no trap where Xin Hao landed this time, but several bows and arrows followed, and Liu Yi didn't care about being embarrassed, and quickly got up after rolling forward and rushed towards the city without looking back.
Seeing that the city gate was in front of him, Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and the enemy behind him really didn't dare to chase after him.
"This time I was careless, I was ambushed, the sky was too dark to see how many people were ambushed, if I wasn't afraid of hiding a master, I could kill them all in a few moments"
Liu Yi's face was covered with frost, and he squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at the woods in the distance,
"Dare to attack me, the Green Wolf Gang, and the three forces in the city's City Lord's Mansion and the Broken Knife Gang, as well as the Crouching Tiger Village outside the city, are not afraid of revenge."
Thinking of this, Liu Yi shook his neck.
"The city lord's mansion has no grievances with me, and the hall also offers a large amount of silver every year, so it is naturally impossible to shoot at me. ”
"Liu Feng, the leader of the Broken Knife Gang, is so powerful that even the deputy hall master has to be afraid of three points, and there has been constant friction in recent years, so it is very likely that he is the black hand of the Broken Knife Gang. ”
"If you dare to do something to me, you must be ready to perish!"
Ryu's eyes flashed sharply, and he then walked towards the city, turning a few corners and entering a bustling street.
At this time, the streets are brightly lit, many pedestrians come and go, farmers who are tired of a day's work, hunters who rob their lives, rich and noble families with fine clothes and food, and some large and small gang members, pickpockets with flexible eyes and hawkers on the street, so that it is extremely lively at this time.
"Guest officer, please inside!"
The third son of the shopkeeper works part-time as the second shopkeeper, and busily leads passers-by into the restaurant: "What do you want to eat? Although we are not as good as the big restaurant here, we are good at home-cooked side dishes." ”
"A jar of wine, and then bring me a copy of your good dishes. ”
Liu Yi casually found an empty table in the corner and sat down, and spoke.
"Okay, wait a minute..."
When Xiao Er heard this, he ran towards the kitchen.
It didn't take long for the same delicious meal to be served, and Liu, who was already hungry, began to feast on it.
"It is said that the three skins were robbed by Crouching Tiger Village when they were out of stock, and a whole cart of medicinal herbs is there, I guess I want to die."
"But he deserves it, he is the brother-in-law of the leader of the Broken Knife Gang, he is majestic all day long, and he doesn't look at us in his eyes, this is retribution"
A drunken man in the distance, looking at his dress, should be a hunter, muttering to his companion who is also a hunter, although the restaurant is full of people, but with Liu Yi's ear power to hear it clearly.
Liu Yi has also heard of these three skins, and it is said that people who have done business with him have to pull off three layers of skin even if they don't have oil and water, so they have this nickname.
After hearing this, the companion looked around, and then whispered to the drunk:
"Crouching Tiger Village, heh, I heard that it was done by the Green Wolf Gang, and the group of people who robbed the road have the clothes of the Green Wolf Gang Crouching Tiger Village, and it is said that even the clothes of the Broken Knife Gang are worn, and they deliberately let go of the three skins, think about it..."
"I'll tell you, the water is so deep...!"
His companion seemed to be proud of his well-informed, so he pretended to be profound.
Liu Yi's face was solemn at this time, this kind of thing happened, whether it was true or not, there was already constant friction, and the conflict between the Green Wolf Gang and the Broken Knife Gang must have become more intense.
If one is strong and one is weak, it's fine, but the two sides are on par with each other, and it is very likely that both sides will lose if they really want to fight, and then it will be cheaper to Crouching Tiger Village outside the city.
"But if Crouching Tiger Village wants to be a fisherman, aren't you afraid that the two will join forces to take the lead in exterminating it!"
Liu Yi's fingers unconsciously knocked on the table, his thoughts kept rolling, and he suddenly looked startled,
"Could it be the City Lord's Mansion's plan to kill three birds with one stone?"
The City Lord's Mansion seems to have been floating out of the world all these years, but in fact, it has been secretly suppressing various forces, if it is better to send a large amount of silver, otherwise even if something trivial happens, it will be invited to stay for ten days and a half months, and in the long run, no one can stand it.
Hearing this kind of thing, Liu Yi was not in the mood to chew slowly, and after eating in a hurry, he paid the silver and walked out, it is estimated that something big will happen in the near future, and he must prepare in advance!
In order to rush back to the entrance of the hall as soon as possible, Liu Yi walked the small road in the city, although his eyes were looking ahead, his eyes were blank, obviously he had something on his mind.
Turning into a street again, this street is obviously deserted, and there are people on both sides of the road who have set up stalls without closing the stalls, such as a noodle stall in front of them.
The noodle stall was opened by an old man over half a hundred years old, who looked even older by the wind and sun all year round, and a large patch was sewn on the already cheap cloth clothes.
His son who gambled excessively and his tired body did not crush him, but he still started a small business day after day, looking forward to paying off his son's gambling debts one day.
At this time, the old man was holding a bowl of noodle soup and walking towards a waiting diner, but before the old man could arrive, the diner suddenly stood up and walked towards Liu Yi.
The old man, who didn't know what was going on, froze in place, watching the diners who didn't look back go farther and farther, the old man sighed, and was about to eat the noodles himself, after all, his stomach had already made a protest sound.
The diner was about seven feet tall, dressed in burlap clothes, and walking with his head bowed despite wearing a hat in the dark, and such a strange behavior made Liu Yi's eyes stare back at this person.
Looking at the diners who were getting closer and closer to him but didn't dodge at all, Liu Yi frowned, slowed down and prepared to stagger over.
Suddenly, as if tripped over something, the diner leaned forward, grabbed his hands instinctively forward, and stumbled.
After experiencing the robbery outside the city and hearing what Orion said in the restaurant, Liu Yi was extremely vigilant at this time, and he didn't talk much nonsense at all.
"Huh"
Liu Yi directly drew his knife and slashed at the diners.
The diner's face was full of astonishment, he didn't expect Liu Yi to be so ruthless, so he had to grit his teeth and pounce on the ground, dodging a horizontal slash, and then bent the fingers of both hands into claws, and grabbed Liu Yi's legs, his finger joints were thick and unusual for ordinary people, if he was caught, there was no doubt that he would be torn apart.
Liu Yi obviously expected that he didn't use all his strength to slash horizontally, and at this time, he took a step back from the knife, and the long knife made a sound of breaking through the air when he waved, and slashed towards the ground with all his strength.
The diner was shocked when he saw this, and forcibly turned his body and rolled to the side to avoid the long knife.
"Boom"
The long knife sank into the bluestone ground, inserted three points, and couldn't pull it out for a while.
"Ah~"
Liu Yi, who was attacked again, looked extremely angry, and directly threw his knife at the diner, and the bloody palm technique was used with all his might, and the blood-red palm left a red afterimage in the dim light
The diner got up in embarrassment, his body was not yet steady, and he looked at Liu Yi, who seemed to be a tiger pounced on the oncoming man, so he had to rush into a fist to meet it.
"Bang"
Where the fists and palms met, the air exploded instantly, and although this diner was in a hurry, his strength was huge, and he had obviously reached the late stage of martial arts.
Liu Yi was shocked by the huge force and took a step back, looking at his right hand that couldn't stop trembling slightly, his face was solemn.
The diners flew out upside down, their faces full of disbelief, and smashed into the table of the noodle stall, and the already chirping table could not bear such a weight at all, and turned into a pile of broken wood.
Although Liu Yi had just reached the late stage of martial arts, his qi permeated his whole body, but the residual essence of the blood essence fruit was refining the musculoskeletal qi of the whole body all the time, so that his strength was growing rapidly all the time, and the diners were in a hurry to meet the attack, and the lower plate was unstable, and he couldn't resist it at all.
Seeing this, Liu Yi was unforgiving, and once again rushed towards the diners who fell to the ground, practicing blood skills to carry qi and blood to the extreme, and the bloody palm technique blasted out with all his might, as if a river of blood appeared out of thin air and rushed towards the diners.
The diner rolled a carp and got up quickly, not daring to despise Liu Yi anymore, and the dog who provided the information was scolded in his heart, and secretly swore that he would be torn to death if this matter was broken!
"Whew~"
The diner takes a deep breath, bends his legs into a horse's step, leans forward slightly, and stands with his arms crossed over his chest, like a majestic mountain, blocking everything.
When the blood-colored palm was a little closer, the diner's face changed greatly, and Liu Yigang was majestic and unstoppable when he attacked, but at this time, it seemed to be soft, weak, and it was a false move.
It was too late for the diner to change his moves, so he saw Liu Yi take advantage of the momentum to kick his side with one foot, throw his leg out with force in his crotch, and kick the instep of his foot into the diner's waist, and the latter spat blood and flew up in the air, falling to the ground and smashing a table.
The diner still wanted to struggle to get up, but after being hit hard in the waist for a while, he couldn't force himself to fall to the ground again, lying on the ground and looking at Liu Yi fiercely, his vicious eyes seemed to be able to swallow people in one bite.
Ignoring his gaze, Ryu Yi quickly ran and stomped on his head, his brain exploding.
