Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Bandit's Revenge

"What?!What's wrong with the third child?"

Zhuang Er stood up from his seat abruptly, his two eyes fixed on the rattan trellis that the thieves had brought in.

On the rattan trellis, Cao San's whole body was covered in blood, and his entire right arm was completely gone! His face was pale and weak, and the fear in his eyes had not subsided.

The rest of the masters also stood up, looking at Cao San with a shocked face, and their hearts were shocked!

None of the people present were the masters who licked the blood on the knife edge, but seeing Cao San's miserable end, they couldn't help but be a little stunned!

On the side of Lianyunzhai, Tian Mao and Zhou Jin looked at each other, their eyes flashed with surprise, but they did not speak.

"The third one! the third ......"

Zhuang Er hurriedly rushed forward, grabbed the shirt of a thief next to him, and roared angrily: "Fuck it! Who did this? Tell me who did it? Lao Tzu is going to peel off his skin! Break him into ten thousand pieces!"

"Back to ...... If you go back to the second family, what is it...... Yes, yes, it was someone from the Chase Chamber of Commerce...... They also killed more than 300 of our brothers!"

That person was the bandit who fled back with Cao San, and he had seen the bloody scene with his own eyes, and until now, he still looked shocked.

Everyone knows that among the few masters, Zhuang Er and Cao San have the most iron relationship, not only a person from the same place, but also a cousin's blood relationship, which is simply a brother who grew up wearing a pair of pants. Now that he sees his brother's appearance in front of him, how can he maintain a normal state of mind?

"Hand ...... My hand, I want revenge......"

Although Cao San was hit hard, he was very conscious. It's just that after suffering such a big blow, it was difficult to accept the reality for a while.

"The Third ......"

Zhuang Er was full of bitterness, nodded again and again: "Third brother, don't worry, the second brother and brothers will avenge you, and they will definitely avenge you!"

At the moment, Boss Gan ordered people to tell them what happened today.

After listening to the stories of the escaped bandits, the crowd fell silent.

In fact, the Chase Chamber of Commerce is just a chamber of commerce in Datong, and there is nothing to be afraid of. But what is that inexplicable cold light?

Everyone knows Cao San's skills, even he looks so miserable, and others are afraid that they will not be able to please him if they go to take revenge.

"Ahem!"

With a dry cough, Zhou Jin broke the atmosphere and said: "As far as I know, although the Chase Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as wealthy, he does not have any power behind him, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by the three major chambers of commerce for so many years." Now that something like this is happening, it may be that the Chase Chamber of Commerce has spent a lot of money to hire a master to help. ”

Tian Mao took over curiously: "No, right? With the status of the Chase Chamber of Commerce, who can you ask for help? Maybe it's just that a certain master happened to pass by, right?"

Zhou Jin shook his head and said: "Where in the world is such a coincidental thing, as soon as we rob and meet a hero who is uneven on the road and draws a sword to help, then how can we people suffocate to death! What's more, this hill is not an official road, if it is not a hurry, who has nothing to do to go to that remote place? However, even if the Chase Chamber of Commerce can afford to invite people, its energy is also very obvious, and it must be a congenital master!"

Seeing that Zhou Jin was right, everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Seeing that Zhuang Er's face turned dark, the other brothers were also not happy, and they all turned their eyes to the boss: "Big brother, when has our Seven Tiger Village been bullied to the head, this matter can't be just settled, you can say something!"

Boss Gan stepped forward and patted Zhuang Er: "The seven brothers of the Seven Tiger Village have one heart, this time the third brother was humiliated, undoubtedly standing on our heads to and slap us, naturally we can't just forget it! Otherwise, if this matter spreads, how can we hold our heads up in the Seven Tiger Village?"

"The boss is right......!

"We must avenge the third child!"

"Yes, I have to capture the woman alive and slowly kill her!"

......

Listening to the boss's words, everyone in charge echoed him.

There are so many brothers in the Seven Tigers Village, and there is also a congenital master like Boss Gan, how can he be cowardly? It's just that, judging from the footsteps of the Datong Chamber of Commerce, the other party's caravan is afraid that it has already entered the territory of Henan, which is the sphere of influence of the Heaven and Earth Alliance. If you don't handle it well, it will cause a lot of trouble.

With some scruples in his heart, Boss Gan lowered his head and thought.

"Big brother, isn't he worried that he will provoke the Heaven and Earth Alliance?" Seeing this, Zhuang Er hurriedly said: "Big brother doesn't need to worry, the Heaven and Earth Alliance is competing with the imperial court, and the forces on the border of Henan have long been withdrawn to Luoyang." What's more, when I heard that the Heaven and Earth Alliance was going to hold a martial arts conference, I couldn't keep myself busy, so how could I have time to take care of other things. ”

"Hmph! I'm afraid of a fart! We bandits do things with our heads, when have we ever planted a shit?"

Boss Gan's eyes slipped, and then turned to Tian Mao and the others: "Fourth Master Tian, Brother Zhou, as the so-called seeers have a share, although the Datong Chamber of Commerce is not as good as the three major chambers of commerce, it can also be regarded as a wealthy party, this time I went to Luoyang to participate in the gathering of the commercial house, and I will definitely transport a lot of red goods, Gan is naturally not good at eating alone, and I am willing to share it with the two of you." ”

Damn, this guy was looking for a back.

Seeing through what the other party thought, Zhou Jinruo smiled meaningfully and said: "The big boss is too polite, this time the three masters of Guizhai were cut off by someone, how can I take advantage of it......

Boss Gan's face turned red, and he was about to save a few words, when he heard Zhou Jin say: "It's just a little thing, it's okay to call a few brothers to help a little." ”

scolded slyly, Boss Gan put on a smile and said, "This love, Gan has accepted it." In the future, you will need to find a place for Gan, and the two of you just need to open your mouth. ”

"Hahaha, it's easy to say!"

Tian Mao and Zhou Jin looked at each other, and everything was silent.

......

――――――――――――

The sun sets and night falls.

Walking on the streets of Huaiqing City, it was extremely cold everywhere, only a few faint lights flashed and went out.

Shu Lan remembered that when she passed by Huaiqing City a few years ago, it was still a bustling and lively place. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the once prosperous city has decayed into this state.

Under the wheel of history, there is no eternal glory, this is a troubled time!

With emotion in her heart, Shu Lan said to Uncle Miao: "Uncle Miao, since we have already entered the city, presumably those bandits dare not chase after us again, let's find a place to rest! I remember that there is an inn around the corner in front of us, let's go over and take a look......"

"Yes Miss. ”

Uncle Miao greeted, and then led the carriage in front.

Everyone in the caravan followed, listless and unusually depressed.

......

――――――――――――

Xilai Inn.

The red-nosed shopkeeper, who is over half a hundred years old, is dozing off in front of the stage, and the horns of his mouth are flowing to the table with the corners of his mouth, and from time to time he makes two strange laughs of thieves.

"Knock knock—"

A strong knock woke up the shopkeeper in his dream.

"The robbers are coming?!The robbers are coming!?"

The sleepy-eyed shopkeeper didn't know what the situation was at all, so he hurriedly shrank to the side with his head in his hands, and kept shouting: "Uncle spare your life! Uncle spare your life! You can take whatever you want, I don't have anything here!"

The shopkeeper cried out with snot and tears, and anyone who saw the poignant appearance couldn't bear it.

"Hey, hey, hey, we're not robbers!"

Liang Escort stepped forward and said helplessly: "We shouted to you many times just now but didn't answer, so we knocked on the table......"

"What?!, not a robber?"

The shopkeeper cautiously raised his head and rubbed his eyes vigorously, only to see a large group of disheveled people standing in front of him, and there seemed to be a faint smell of blood on his body.

"You're really not robbers?!"

Seeing the vigilant expression on the shopkeeper's face, Uncle Miao explained with a smile: "We are really not robbers, we just had a fight with the bandits when we passed by the mountain, so we have the appearance we have now." ”

"What?!You've fought with bandits?!"

The shopkeeper was startled at first, and then asked tremblingly, "Then, what are you doing here?"

"What can you do?" Liang Guard said angrily: "Aren't you here an inn? Of course we are here to stay in a hotel, and you are still asking questions, do you still do business?"

"Do, do...... No, don't do it, don't do it......"

The shopkeeper nodded at first, and then his color changed greatly, and he quickly shook his head and said, "You guys go quickly, we don't do business here." ”

On the side, Shu Lan saw that the shopkeeper's words were not right, and secretly thought that something was wrong, so he said in a calm tone: "Shopkeeper, you open the door to do business, where to push the guests out, we are the team of the Chase Chamber of Commerce, and we are going to Luoyang to participate in the gathering of the commercial house, we are not bad people." ”

Maybe it was the girl's innocent appearance, or maybe it was the girl's kind tone, and the shopkeeper gradually came back to his senses from panic. He looked at a few people with complicated eyes, and finally sighed and said: "Several officials, this young lady, you better leave quickly! You have offended the bandits, if you are late, you will not be able to leave." ”

"What?!"

Uncle Miao and the Liang guards looked at each other, and the latter asked instead: "What do you mean by this, shopkeeper? Isn't this territory in Henan the sphere of influence of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, do those bandits and robbers still dare to mess around?"

"Alas, don't mention it......"

The shopkeeper said bitterly: "In this area of the border of Henan, bandits and robbers are very rampant, often looting nearby towns, and no one can control them...... This Huaiqing City used to be pretty good, there was a big tree of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, those bandits and robbers did not dare to come here to be presumptuous, but it is a pity that later the Heaven and Earth League and the imperial court fought back and forth, and also withdrew their forces from this area, becoming a place that does not matter, so the border bandits and robbers often harass this place, making us worry and fear every day, and many people moved away at that time. Now in this Huaiqing City, there are only us who have no relatives and no reason left......"

"How could such a thing happen?!"

Uncle Miao frowned, and the shopkeeper continued: "So, you better go quickly! Otherwise, if the thieves chase after you to take revenge, you will be all finished." ”

Guarding Liang sank after hearing this, and turned to Shu Lan and said, "Miss, it seems that we must set off as soon as possible and hurry overnight, otherwise when the bandits catch up, it will be over." ”

Uncle Miao was also annoyed: "I thought that I would be able to finish things when I arrived in Henan, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing." ”

Moaning slightly, Shu Lan said decisively: "Uncle Miao, you go and prepare some dry food, and we will set off immediately after arranging it...... Let everyone work hard and persevere, and we will be able to rest when we arrive in Luoyang. ”

"I understand, Miss. ”

Uncle Miao nodded sharply and left in a hurry with a few guys.

Then, Shu Lan took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from his sleeve, handed it to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, thank you for telling us this...... Since bandits and bandits are so rampant here, I think you should leave quickly! There is a little money here, enough for you to live in peace elsewhere. ”

"This ......"

Seeing this, the shopkeeper hesitated, and Shu Lan stuffed the silver ticket directly into the other party's hand, and then turned around and left with everyone.

When the figure disappeared, the red-nosed shopkeeper came back to his senses and looked at the silver ticket in his hand in a daze.

"Good guy, really good guy!"

The shopkeeper muttered to himself, not only sighed: "I didn't expect that in this year, there are such kind-hearted people, I hope God will bless them!"

After speaking, the shopkeeper walked briskly towards the inner hall.
