Chapter Seventy-Eight: Cold-Blooded Death
Liu Ping'er's figure stopped under the door, and a single knife whistled and flew towards the fleeing bandits, and in the scream, Liu Ping'er had already risen in the air and fell into the observation platform on the adobe stone platform.
The bandit sentry in the lookout was aiming down, and for a moment he suddenly retreated in terror, and the sharp arrow roared forward to shoot Liu Ping'er in the throat.
Liu Ping'er's hand reached out, the sound of the sharp arrow disappeared, the tip of the arrow was only a few inches away from Liu Ping'er's throat, but there was no longer the strength to move forward, the frightened almost out-of-body thief sentry, the frightened shout had not yet come out, the sharp arrow in Liu Ping'er's hand had been reversed, and the tip of the arrow crossed his throat.
The longbow discarded by the bandit sentry was already in Liu Ping'er's hand, and he pulled the bow and arrow, and with a sharp roar, the arrow was shot at the other sentry who was about to escape from the lookout on the opposite side.
The screams rang out, and the sentry, carried by a sharp arrow, fell down the spiral staircase at the exit of the lookout, and the screams were silenced by the sound of the fall.
Liu Ping'er flew into the gate.
Kuroko controlled the horse out of the boulevard, and the last screams died down, which urged the horse to come to the gate of the village, and the tragic situation along the way proved that the probability of him being cut off by a thief who suddenly burst out and cut his head on the ground and rolled on the ground dropped sharply, and Kuroko couldn't help but have the courage to urge the horse into the stockade.
The blood flowing from the throat and chest of several thieves in front of a house has not yet coagulated, and a horn has broken into two after making a half-loud horn sound, and Liu Ping'er, who is painted with green clothes and long shirts, is like a blue light, and the blood stains the alkali grass, the remnants of the ancient well, and the broken car frame, which still proves that in the courtyard and in front of the wooden building, the frightened and tragic killing just now.
Liu Ping'er has gone around the dozens of ancient acacia trees that are not lined up horizontally and vertically, from north to south, and the three ups and downs are stretching from west to east, all the way to the boulevard where the thieves gather in the main pavilion of the Phoenix Mountain.
'Falling Flower Pavilion' is hidden on the left side of the boulevard, a bend of the pond, lotus leaves have not yet been broken and rancid due to the autumn coolness, and gathered in the simple wooden bridge in the unobstructed pond Falling Flower Pavilion is around, and the petals scattered on the branches and flower stems around the pond are flying on the water surface, and the ripples stirred up by the occasional dead leaves in the stagnant water are entangled in the pavilion.
The two voices spoke in a slightly louder voice, causing Liu Ping'er, who was galloping forward along the boulevard, to stop suddenly.
A questioning, surprised and eager voice said, "What's going on?"
The other voice was a little thinner, and he said in a somewhat magnetic tone: "Tu Gang and Xu are in the attic of the middle of the mountain, is it a surprise attack by the officials?"
When these words were spoken, the end of the note floated out a little worried and frightened, and another dull, thick voice said: "I'm here, what are you worried about, the knife will chop me first!"
The weak, magnetic voice sounded again, but it changed the tone of fear, and said with a rather strange look: "What are you talking about, you have been running up the mountain for more than a year, and you have said such nonsense!"
Tu Gang's thick voice said again: "Okay Jun'er, I'm just in such an irritable mood today for some reason, you know it's not for you." β
After a moment of silence, Jun'er's magnetic voice came again: "Don't be like this, okay, or let's not go out, go back to the pavilion and stay, lower your head, and let the side be quiet for a while."
It was indifferent and quiet again, and Tu just said reluctantly: "Okay!"
As soon as the words fell, Jun'er's exclamation sounded!
Liu Ping'er walked through the forest and stood under the last big tree, the two thieves who had just spoken, Tu Gang and Jun'er were standing on the edge of the pond, in front of the simple wooden bridge, at this time the thinner Jun'er bandits had retreated, and their frightened expressions were faintly lost, and the other burly, delicate but covered by the cold, Tu Gang, was already holding the saber and soft leather handle on his waist, and his eyes were looking at the front intently.
Liu Ping'er was silent under the big tree less than ten meters away, looking at the two of them coldly.
After a moment of silence, Tu Gang looked at Liu Ping'er and whispered to Jun'er behind: "Go back to the Flower Pavilion, swim across the pond and run to the dense forest, don't look back." β
The autumn wind did not enter the forest, but Tu Gang felt the chill invade his body, and the irritability had turned into a trembling cold, he didn't know that it was Liu Ping'er's murderous spread, but he knew in his heart that it might be difficult to escape this catastrophe today, although this was just a feeling that the cold touched his heart, and he didn't want Jun'er to accompany him to face the unknown.
The fear in Jun'er's heart made him want to escape, but looking at Tu Gang's somewhat shaky back, and the same shaking hand holding the handle of the soft leather knife, he couldn't move half a step.
Tu Gang didn't hear Jun'er's response, his face became even more nervous, and he suddenly shouted: "You run!"
Jun'er was stunned, but Liu Ping'er moved, his body jumped over, Tu Gang roared, his heart was crossed, the knife was out, Liu Ping'er's feet touched the ground, Tu Gang's knife had been picked up, fell, and chopped at Liu Ping'er.
The cold light loomed, and the light sword had been raised.
In the sound of metal collision, Tu Gang's body leaned back, and even the roar was raised into the air, and the single knife was castrated and never slower than the momentum to the sky.
Liu Ping'er's sword slashed at Tu Gang's left leg at the same time as the force of the fall.
The screams were terrible, and Tu Gang, who was retreating, could no longer use any strength in his left leg, his body retreated, and he lost his feet to use as a fulcrum, and instantly changed his voice and lay down backwards, and his legs had fallen to the same place.
Jun'er shouted and rushed forward, and Liu Ping'er advanced to stab the sword.
Tu Gang used the last bit of strength with both hands, holding on the light thin sword that pierced into his abdomen, and the body that was about to fall was grabbed by the light thin sword, and the scream that should have been made on his mouth had turned into a shout: "Run!"
Jun'er was awakened by this heart-wrenching shout, and when he was about to reach the figure behind Tu Gang, he suddenly stopped, turned around, let out an unwilling and miserable cry, and ran towards the improvised bridge.
Liu Ping'er rushed forward and pushed the sword, Tu Gang's already weak body flew up in the air, a few fingers were scattered, blood arrows sprayed on his chest, Liu Ping'er's figure was already in the air, one foot stepped on Tu Gang's sideways body, his toes were forceful, and his body shot at Jun'er who fled like an arrow, Tu Gang fell to the ground with a bang, his round eyes looked at the sky, and blood gushed out of his mouth.
As soon as Jun'er's shouting ended, Liu Ping'er was already behind him, and the momentum did not stop, and the light thin sword had pierced Jun'er's back.
Jun'er screamed, her body soared, her limbs drooped softly, and she looked up at the sky, but the light was slowly obscured by the black curtain in her eyes.
Hearing Jun'er's screams, Tu Gang's tense body, which resisted the invasion of sleepiness, was stretched.
Liu Ping'er looked at Jun'er, who was pierced by a light thin sword and raised one arm in the air, without a trace of expression on her face.
Jun'er no longer trembled, Liu Ping'er turned around, lunged, and danced back with one arm, Jun'er's body floated into the air with a 'tong' sound, and Jun'er had smashed down beside Tu Gang.
Liu Ping'er walked over slowly, glanced at it indifferently, and then flew through the trees, ran back to the boulevard, and walked away quickly.
Kuroko urged the horse to follow the sound and walk along the boulevard, and the half-sound of the horn also made him move much slower, and he became more rational, but curiosity and the luck of the death of the nearby bandits still occupied his heart.
Liang Zizheng, who came back with Zhong Poyan and Zhen Che all the way, was standing in front of the door, Jin Gong, Pan Yuxiao, Yu Ling'er, and Xu Huan were also standing in front of the Huoyun Pavilion with their backs to the mountain village and looking forward to the boulevard a hundred meters away.
Liang Zi still had a longer mouth, and said to Pan Yuxiao and Xu Huan: "Sister, brother-in-law, something happened to Peiyang, could it be that the officers and soldiers are chasing after you?"
Before Xu Huan could speak, Pan Yuxiao had already said: "Liangzi, don't talk nonsense, this word spread and made the brothers panic, we have made more than one transaction everywhere, Peiyang didn't provoke the official family in this matter, and the officers and soldiers have no reason to come here!"
Liang Zi let out a silly 'oh'.
Xu Huan whispered beside Pan Yuxiao: "Yuxiao, I'm afraid that we will really get into trouble this time, maybe the official family won't come to the door, the hanging bonus has fallen so much money, we want to rob a ready-made one, get together with this file, I'm afraid that they will really use this to attack our cottage." β
Pan Yuxiao looked at Xu Huan unconsciously.
Xu Huan looked at Pan Yuxiao and nodded to indicate that it was difficult to say.
Pan Yuxiao sighed, and then said: "The second brother is a little sharp during this time, he is always greedy in doing things, and there are some things we can't do!"
Xu Huan continued: "I also feel that the fourth brother slashed the iron operator and Li Xin in the suburbs of Bazhong last time, so that he felt that he had a reliance in his eyes, no matter how high the fourth brother's martial arts are, we can't pierce the sky, there are people outside the people, and it will be too late for disaster to come." β
Pan Yuxiao nodded unconsciously, took Xu Huan's hand, and didn't say anything, and looked at the side of the boulevard, the cavalry had gone to find out the news, and the doubts in his heart were naturally solved for a while, maybe the horn hand was just a little frizzy, blowing the horn to play, and then closing the sound for a while, even if the officer and soldier brigade came, the rain of arrows could not stop him from blowing the horn.
Liang Zi's ears are also long, listening to his sister Xu Huan and brother-in-law Pan Yuxiao chatting about such words, he remembered in his heart that Zhong Poyan looked down on his face in the inn, and led others to stop talking, he unconsciously muttered to himself: "The eyes are long on the top of your head, and a bird's egg will blind you, maybe the government will ambush and chop you up that day! That Du Sheng ghost and ghost spirit have already targeted you." β
Liang Zi's words are muttering in his mouth, but his naΓ―ve appearance seems to be out of mind nonsense, Pan Yuxiao, Xu Huan and others on the side have heard this chatter, but they usually know that Liang Zi's brain is not good, and the vague chatter will not subdivide what it means. Xu is a strong enemy invaded, and no one can notice him for a while, even the small leaders next to him only know that Zhong Poyan is not kind, and Liang Zi hates him in his heart.
Last month, Liang Zi was in Tongjiang cat, and inadvertently, in the small restaurant, I heard Du Sheng asking Cui Mingyu to keep an eye on their agate village, Liang Zi is not stupid, and his heart is still small, this matter is rotten in his stomach, and he is careful.
Liu Ping'er's footsteps had stopped, and she jumped and flashed behind a big tree on the side of the road, and the thunderous sound of horses' hooves was near.
In a moment, a team of galloping bandit horses was already rushing towards them, with long knives on each side of the horses and short knives on their backs, looking mighty and powerful, and even better than the bandits under the horses.
Liu Ping'er's killing thoughts in his heart had made him a little numb, and the sword in his hand and the thief on the mountain had killed him cleanly.
The horses neighed miserably, the thieves howled! Liu Ping'er's figure suddenly appeared.
