Chapter 10: Nine arrows from a crossbow, killing people with a machine gun

Li Che clutched the spirit infant statue, his eyes flickering.

Since the other party had set their sights on him and had taken out an evil wooden carving of a spirit infant as a mark, Li Che naturally did not dare to gamble. What if he went out to work and the other party broke into the earthen house and attacked him, he would regret it.

"The safest place...is naturally the woodcarving shop!"

"I am a woodcarving master now. I have my own workshop. I can let Xixi and Xiaoya stay in my workshop..."

"Yeah, stable and safe!"

After making the decision to play it safe, Li Che woke up his wife Zhang Ya.

"Husband, you were so hard on me last night. You must have been holding it in for too long..." Zhang Ya's pretty face turned slightly red, and the way she looked at Li Che seemed to be able to squeeze out water.

Li Che smiled and ruffled his wife's loose hair.

"My dear, pack up, take Xixi with you, and go to the woodcarving shop together... and work with me for the next two days."

Li Che said.

Zhang Ya was stunned. Go to the woodcarving shop to work together? "Husband, today is your first day as a woodcarver... Isn't it a bad idea for Xixi and I to go together? Will the shopkeeper be unhappy?"

Li Che shook his head: "No, the workshop is the private space of the woodcarver, and family members can stay in it. I will explain it to the shopkeeper."

Zhang Ya stopped talking after hearing this and started packing up, taking Xixi with her, who was dancing and playing on the bed with her eyes open.

After wrapping Xixi tightly, the family set out for Xuji Woodcarving Shop in the wind and snow.

Li Che protected his wife and daughter. The cold wind was howling. He tightened his wife's cotton coat and wrapped Xixi around her to prevent the cold wind from invading her.

At the same time, Li Che glanced around and was very alert.

Seeing her husband like this, Zhang Ya's heart suddenly sank, knowing that something must have happened. But since Li Che didn't say anything, she didn't ask. However, she began to worry silently in her heart.

The couple took their child through the wind and snow and stepped onto the long bluestone street covered with snow.

"The Holy Spirit has a teaching, cleansing the world, reincarnation without worries..."

"To have the best wisdom, one must be able to achieve it without being taught..."

The sound of tinkling clangs rang out, bronze bells collided, and drums rang out. The ranks of the Lingying Sect members came from afar in a bewitching sequence.

On the altar, the wooden statue of a three-headed, six-armed spirit infant looked increasingly eerie amid the smoke of incense.

Li Che even vaguely felt that the eyes of the wooden sculpture of the Spirit Infant Dharma Master were specifically looking in the direction of their family. There was a vague line of sight, staring at him all the time, making him feel like a thorn in his back!

"Husband..." Zhang Ya looked at the queue of Spirit Infant Dharma Masters, her face obviously a little panicked.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Don't look, just keep going."

Li Che patted his wife, put his arm around her slender shoulders, and walked straight towards the wood carving shop.

However, Li Che inexplicably felt a cold wind blowing behind him, as if there was a figure following them.

The crisis is like thick ink soaking into a pool, beginning to spread out little by little until it dyes the entire pool black.

Fortunately, we soon arrived at Xu Ji Woodcarving Shop.

The moment he stepped into the wood carving shop, Li Che felt his body relax. He turned his head and looked into the distance with his eyes fixed. As expected, he saw a black shadow flash past the corner.

"Lei Chunlan?"

Li Che's chest heaved violently, and he couldn't help but feel murderous intent.

"Ache?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard. Chen Dabao was holding a gourd and drinking. Then he saw Li Che and Zhang Ya and Xixi beside him.

This scene... made him stunned, but Old Chen was an experienced man. When he thought about what Li Che had said before about the Spirit Infant Master having his eyes on his daughter, he immediately had an idea.

"Come in first."

Old Chen looked solemn and let Li Che bring his wife and daughter into the shop.

Li Che arranged Zhang Ya to work in his own workshop before coming to find Lao Chen.

Old Chen drank the gourd wine and glanced at Li Che: "Are you being targeted?"

Li Che nodded and took out the wooden sculpture of a spirit baby that appeared at his doorstep last night.

The moment he saw the spiritual infant woodcarving, Old Chen's face became solemn and he stopped drinking: "You did the right thing. Bringing your wife and daughter to the woodcarving shop will only make them safe. Your house...is no longer safe."

"Spirit Infant Dharma Master, Spirit Infant Dharma Master...giving this wood carving to you represents the Spirit Infant's evaluation of your daughter...she is a Spirit Infant!"

Old Chen took the wood carving with an extremely solemn expression.

Li Che's expression also changed.

"They should have been keeping an eye on your family. Did this 'three-headed, six-armed spirit infant statue' just appear last night?"

"It seems that they know that you have become Xuji's woodcarver and that you will definitely move into the Xuji compound, so..."

Li Che looked grim: "They want to strike first?"

"Yes, fortunately you are steady enough to take your wife and daughter over..." Old Chen clenched his five fingers, and the wooden sculpture of the spirit infant was instantly covered with cracks, and shattered into pieces of wood with a snapping sound.

"You said someone was following you? Was it the midwife who killed so many babies?"

"Maybe, I didn't see it clearly... I can't be sure."

"For the sake of our becoming harmonious and friendly neighbors... I'll take you for a walk to see if you're the brainwashed midwife..."

Old Chen took a sip of the strong old wine, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said.

Li Che couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this.

He knew that the reason why Lao Chen's attitude changed was because of his talent in wood carving, which enabled him to make wood carvings extremely meaningful. This kind of talent... seemed to be more important than he imagined!

Li Che settled his wife and daughter in the workshop and told Zhang Ya not to run around. Lao Chen asked an old craftsman to help keep an eye on things, and then left the shop with Li Che.

Both of them wore hats to keep out the wind and snow.

After leaving the shop, Lao Chen threw a cloak to Li Che, wrapped himself in it, and put the wine gourd around his waist.

Came to the corner of the alley.

But all he saw was a statue of a "three-headed, six-armed spirit baby" placed on the snow at the corner of the alley.

"Wow, you are really brave, daring to put a sign in front of Xu's shop... Do you really think Xu's is made of clay?"

Old Chen narrowed his eyes, stomped his foot, and with the surge of blood and energy, the wooden sculpture of the spirit infant exploded into pieces in an instant.

Crash!

at the same time.

A dark shadow in the distance seemed to be frightened and moved away quickly on the snow.

"Found it." Old Chen narrowed his eyes and glanced at Li Che.

"Just follow me slowly and be careful."

After saying this, Lao Chen's exposed skin turned red as if it was burned by fire, his body relaxed, and his tendons were tensed, making a sound like a bowstring being pulled tightly.

The snow under his feet melted into water instantly, and a scorching heat wave rushed towards him. He took a step forward, and it was like a red-hot iron being thrown out quickly, breaking the flying snow and chasing after the fleeing black shadow.

Looking at Old Chen who was ejected away in an instant, Li Che was slightly shocked.

Grinding the skin, relaxing the tendons, tempering the bones and replacing the blood... I don’t know what realm Lao Chen has reached, and Lao Chen’s internal strength is also extremely good.

Exhaling a breath of hot air in the wind and snow, Li Che pressed the crossbow hidden in his sleeve, his face as cold as water.

I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it...

Thinking that the lovely Xixi was targeted by these villains, Li Che felt extremely violent.

You want to mess with my daughter, I...

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Kill you!

…

…

Li Che walked on the bluestone road and quickly caught up.

From a distance, I could see Lao Chen leaning against the wall at the corner of the alley, holding a gourd and tasting the wine.

In the alley behind him, a dark shadow curled up on the ground, and blood dyed the white snow red.

"It's not the midwife, but a practitioner who has mastered the skin polishing technique. He has become a member of the Lingying Sect."

Old Chen said calmly when he saw Li Che coming.

Li Che's heart sank suddenly, and he felt a little disappointed.

It’s not Lei Chunlan...it’s really a pity.

The big man had dark skin and a sense of toughness from being exposed to wind and sun, but at this moment he was extremely weak, with blood oozing from his mouth and nose. He fell to the ground, wheezing hot air and coughing up blood.

It was obvious that he was beaten badly by Lao Chen after just a few moves and was seriously injured.

After beating someone up, Lao Chen drank some wine, and felt the same comfort as smoking a cigarette afterwards.

Li Che stared at the big man who buried his head in the snow, clenched his fists, and his eyes were extremely cold.

"Where is Lei Chunlan?"

Li Che asked with a somewhat hoarse voice.

"I...I don't...know..."

The big man lowered his head and replied with a grunt.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Che kicked him hard on the head, causing the big man's head to hit the bluestone ground covered with white snow, making a dull sound.

Li Che kicked the big man several times in a row, but the big man gritted his teeth and just groaned, without wailing or making any sound.

Old Chen looked at him indifferently, with a smile on his face.

After a while, the two of them walked silently on the long street, with Old Chen standing with his hands behind his back, looking leisurely.

Li Che, who was standing by, looked at Chen Dabao and said, "Old Chen, please go back to the shop first. I will go buy a pound of pork head and two ounces of rice wine to thank you..."

Hearing this, Old Chen grinned and said, "You're welcome. Go ahead. I want the marinade from the west side of the city."

Li Che smiled, responded, and rushed into the snowstorm.

Old Chen looked at Li Che's disappearing back, smacked his lips, picked up the gourd, removed the sieve, and gulped down a mouthful.

"This kid... is a good father."

"However, I have never practiced martial arts, so killing a skin-polishing warrior... is not easy."

…

…

In the alley.

The snow was flying in the air, scattered here and there, and it was freezing cold to the bone.

The strong smell of blood filled the air. The dark-skinned man who had been beaten by Lao Chen staggered up from the ground, bent over and leaned against the wall...

Lao Chen was too strong, but he had just had his skin smoothed and had no power to resist.

As for those kicks from Li Che, they didn't hurt at all for the big man in the Mopi realm, they were just a little humiliating.

"None of the spiritual infants targeted by the Master can escape... Even Xu Ji can't protect them..."

The big man gasped and panted.

suddenly.

His waist suddenly stiffened as he looked at it. The light at the entrance of the alley was blocked by the figure.

He raised his head with difficulty, only to see a slender figure wearing a bamboo hat blocking the alley.

The figure wearing a bamboo hat raised his arm.

Whoosh! There was a whistling sound that tore through the air and pierced through the flying snow.

Puff! Something seemed to explode...

The dark-skinned man only felt a sharp pain in his eyes. A wooden crossbow arrow pierced through his eyeball with great force, and the blood blurred his vision instantly.

He howled miserably, the pain instantly burning his nerves!

Like an angry tiger, he roared, wanting to pounce on the man who shot the arrow at the alley entrance and tear him to pieces! Li Che, wearing a bamboo hat, looked at the black-skinned man who was rushing towards him with indifference. With a whistling sound, another crossbow arrow burst out.

Arrow after arrow, every arrow hits the eye socket! Dermabrasion does make the skin rough and thick...but can you also grind the eyeballs?

He shot all the first wave of nine arrows from the sleeve crossbow.

Until the dark-skinned man knelt on the ground, his head pierced like a hedgehog, and he died completely and there was no sound.

Li Che shook his sleeves, hid his crossbow expressionlessly, turned around and pulled down his bamboo hat...

Walk towards the braised meat shop in the west of the city.
