Chapter 234 Bandits, Massacre
"What's going on?"
Hearing the noise outside, the people who were eating in the temple were a little dazed.
"Boss, why is there a carriage here?"
Only a voice was heard outside.
"Of course there is a fat sheep staying here. I didn't expect that we are so lucky. We just made a big profit and now we have another business coming to us."
Another rough voice said.
"Guys, business is coming again. Hurry up and surround this dilapidated temple to prevent the fat sheep from escaping!"
"yes!"
Amidst the roar of responses, rustling sounds of footsteps began to be heard around the dilapidated temple.
It was obvious that the people outside were surrounding the entire mountain temple.
Then, before Lu Qing and the others could make any move, they heard a loud bang, and the half remaining gate of the front yard suddenly flew up and smashed into the yard.
"Sure enough, all the fat sheep are in there!"
With a loud laugh, a dozen burly men holding swords and carrying a strong smell of blood walked in from outside the temple.
The leader had disheveled hair and a giant centipede-like scar on his face, looking quite ferocious and terrifying.
The group of big men behind him also had ferocious faces, like evil spirits, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not good people.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
A chubby middle-aged disciple stood up and asked.
"Who are we? We are, of course, bandits. As for what we want to do, needless to say, it's robbery!"
The man with the centipede scar smiled.
Just his smile made the scar on his face move, as if a real centipede was moving, which was very scary.
This horrifying scene frightened the young girl Xu Ping so much that she screamed and hid behind her father.
When the man with the centipede scar saw Xu Ping's action, a flash of violence appeared in his eyes.
"Bandits, robbery?" The chubby middle-aged man showed a funny look, "Friend, have you done something wrong? Why are you robbing us?"
"Why, do you have some remarkable background?"
The man with the centipede scar looked at Lu Qing and the others with interest and said.
In his perception, although there were people in this courtyard who were good at martial arts, the strongest was only at the muscle and bone realm and was not a concern at all.
"That's not the case. We are just ordinary travelers. We don't have any valuables on us. You are choosing the wrong target if you want to mobilize such a large force to rob us."
"Really? That's hard to say. The carriage outside is yours, right? If you can afford to ride in a carriage like that, you must be rich or noble. How could you not have valuables on you?
What's more, even if there is no money or property, there is still a beautiful girl here. If I can capture her and make her my thirteenth concubine, that would be a great thing."
As soon as the centipede-scarred man said this, the chubby middle-aged man's face suddenly changed, and anger appeared on his face.
Originally, he saw that the other side had a large number of people and archers, and was afraid that once a conflict broke out, they, the master and his disciples, would not be able to cope with both, and it would be easy for Doctor Chen and his men to get hurt.
But he couldn't swallow the fact that the bandit leader actually wanted to take advantage of his daughter.
Just when the chubby middle-aged man was about to explode, Lu Qing beside him suddenly asked, "What's that hanging around your waist?"
Everyone was stunned and looked at the waist of the man with the centipede scar.
I saw a cloth bag hanging there, which was round and bulging, with dark red blood stains seeping out from the bottom.
"Are you talking about this?" The man with the centipede scar took off the cloth bag from his waist, "This is my trophy."
As he spoke, he opened the cloth bag, and a bloody human head suddenly popped out.
"ah!"
Such a shocking scene frightened Xu Ping so much that she screamed.
Xiaoyan also cried softly and buried her head in Lu Qing's arms.
The old doctor frowned slightly.
As for the others, such as the fat middle-aged disciples, they were all shocked.
"This head..."
The chubby middle-aged man couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw it.
Although there was blood on the face of the head, it was still recognizable as the head of a young girl with a pretty appearance.
"Isn't it beautiful?" The man with the centipede scar smiled proudly when he saw this.
"I had my eyes on this girl, but when I married her in a formal ceremony and offered her a betrothal gift to make her my thirteenth concubine, she and her father, the mayor, actually refused me.
I had no choice but to take my brothers down the mountain, massacre the town, and bring back her head.
The woman I, Wu Tian, like, will never escape from my grasp, even if she dies. "
The big man with the centipede scar gently stroked the cheek of the girl's head with his fingers, his face full of fascination.
That perverted look made Xu Ping tremble all over.
She suddenly remembered that the bandit leader had previously said that he wanted her to be his thirteenth concubine.
"You evil thief, how could you be so cruel!"
A chubby middle-aged disciple couldn't stand it any longer, so he drew out his sword and pointed it at the man with the centipede scar.
"Oh? So you guys want to resist?"
The man with the centipede scar was pointed at by a sword, but he was not at all surprised.
Even the dozen or so big men behind him remained indifferent. They held their weapons and looked at the disciple in a joking manner.
"But you guys have to think it over carefully. If we really start fighting, my men will never leave anyone alive."
The man with the centipede scar snapped his fingers.
The next moment, there was movement all around, and dozens of figures appeared on the courtyard wall of the mountain temple and on the roof of the main hall.
They were all holding bows, arrows, darts and other hidden weapons in their hands, pointing them at Lu Qing and the others.
"It's your choice whether you want to offer the girl to me or be shot to death by my brothers' arrows."
The chubby middle-aged man's expression changed again.
I secretly thought that I was careless.
Such a situation would be extremely difficult for him to deal with.
With their abilities as master and disciple, breaking through is certainly not difficult, but protecting the old doctor and the others is extremely difficult.
Just when the chubby middle-aged man was secretly regretting that he should have captured the bandit leader as soon as possible, Lu Qing spoke again.
"No wonder you smell so bloody. It turns out you slaughtered an entire town."
"So what?" The man with the centipede scar looked at Lu Qing strangely.
He wondered if this kid had a problem with his brain. Couldn't he see the current situation? He actually cared about their massacre in the town.
However, he saw that Lu Qing's face was unusually calm. After seeing him nod, he said calmly: "Master Ma, bring him here."
"Yes, sir!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the man with the centipede scar had no time to figure out what they meant.
He only felt an extremely powerful aura suddenly erupting in front of him, and the next moment, a figure appeared in front of him.
Feeling the suffocating breath from Magu, the man with the centipede scar was horrified and wanted to retreat.
Unfortunately it's too late.
The knife flashed, and with two swish sounds, the two arms of the man with the centipede scar were separated from his body and fell to the ground.
With one move, Magu cut off the two arms of the man with the centipede scar. Without stopping, he tapped his chest with the handle of the knife.
After avoiding the other party's spurting blood, he then picked him up by the neck, returned to Lu Qing, and threw him to the ground.
“…”
Magu's attack was sudden and fast.
Until he captured the man with the centipede scar, none of the bandits were able to react.
"Ah! My hand!"
The man with the centipede scar couldn't bear the pain of his broken arm and screamed.
The bandits then reacted.
"Boss!"
"Let our boss go!"
"Otherwise I'll chop you all to pieces!"
"Release the arrows, release them now!"
The bandits became agitated and shouted wildly.
"Shut up!" Magu put the tip of the knife against the throat of the centipede-scarred man, "Don't you want your boss to live?"
“…”
Seeing that blood had already begun to flow from the throat of the man with the centipede scar, all the bandits suddenly fell silent and dared not shout anymore.
The bandits on the walls and roofs also subconsciously lowered their bows and hidden weapons.
They were afraid that if they made a mistake, their boss would be hurt.
As for the round-faced middle-aged man and others on the side, they were already stunned.
"That's right."
Lu Qing stretched out his hand and pressed a few acupoints on the centipede-scarred man's body, temporarily stopping the bleeding from his arm wound.
Then he said calmly: "How do you feel now?"
The man with the centipede scar was also a ruthless man, and he had now recovered from the severe pain.
He endured the pain and sneered, "I didn't expect that I was wrong. You, my servant, are only at the great perfection of the tendon and bone realm, but you can burst out with the strength of the internal organs realm. I was caught off guard and actually failed!
However, do you think that you can leave here safely by capturing me? As long as I give the order, my brothers will shoot arrows without hesitation and shoot you all into a hornet's nest!"
"Oh, then you give the order." Lu Qing said nonchalantly.
"What did you say?" The man with the centipede scar was stunned.
"I say, give the order now and let your brothers shoot arrows to see if they can shoot us all into a hornet's nest." Lu Qing said lightly.
"Are you crazy, kid?"
The man with the centipede scar looked at Lu Qing with disbelief in his eyes.
He could feel that Lu Qing's words were not false, and he really didn't care about his order to shoot.
As a result, the man with the centipede scar was in trouble.
Because once he really gave the order to shoot, he himself would surely die.
Although he was cruel, he was not really crazy enough to disregard his own life.
"It seems that you are still afraid."
Seeing the hesitation of the centipede-scarred man, Lu Qing chuckled, "You scum are always like this. When you harm others, you act so high and mighty, as if you are really powerful and strong.
It is really meaningless to be more timid than a mouse when facing death. "
Hearing Lu Qing's extremely insulting words, the man with the centipede scar showed signs of violence again on his face.
But now that he was in a critical position, he didn't dare to attack at all.
"What exactly do you want, Your Excellency, in order for you to let me go?"
The man with the centipede scar said coldly.
He still had hope. There were still children, old people and young girls with low cultivation in the yard, and his men had occupied every blind spot on the high ground.
As long as Lu Qing and the others still have concerns, he still has a chance of survival.
What the centipede-scarred man didn't expect was that when he said this, he heard Lu Qing sigh.
"Well, since you don't dare to give orders, I'll help you."
"Wait a minute!"
The man with the centipede scar felt a chill in his heart and shouted anxiously.
But it was of no use.
Lu Qing stretched out his finger and gently tapped his forehead. The man with the centipede scar trembled all over, his pupils began to dilate, and his breath slowly dissipated.
"Boss!"
Seeing that the man with the centipede scar was completely dead, all the bandits were suddenly shocked.
No one expected that Lu Qing would suddenly kill his boss at this moment.
Even the fat middle-aged master and his disciples were completely stunned.
"Shoot, shoot now, kill them all!"
At this time, a bandit leader finally reacted and shouted wildly.
The bandits who occupied the high ground also came to their senses at this time, and immediately drew their bows and were about to shoot at Lu Qing and his men.
"not good!"
The fat middle-aged man was very anxious and rushed out, trying to take the initiative.
But just as he jumped out, while still in mid-air, he heard a hissing sound. The bandits on the surrounding walls and roofs began to scream and fell down like dumplings.
"Master Ma, Zi'an, kill them all. Don't leave any alive."
"Yes, sir!"
Ma Gu and Wei Zi'an, who had long been unable to contain themselves, immediately showed excitement upon hearing what was said, and pounced on the dozen or so remaining bandits in the yard.
"Take my knife!"
Ma Gu's cultivation was higher than Wei Zian's. He was the first to come to the bandit leader who had the strongest aura and was holding a long knife, and chopped him down with his knife.
The bandit was horrified, for he had just seen with his own eyes that even his boss was no match for the man in front of him.
In panic, he could only instinctively raise his knife upwards, hoping to block the knife.
“Crash!”
The sword flashed, and the sword in Magu's hand was no ordinary item. It was a thousand-refined sword that Lu Qing had taken time out to forge for him during the past two years.
The long sword in the bandit's hand was only a few dozen times forged at best. How could it withstand Ma Gu's thundering sword?
Without a doubt, Magu chopped him in half with his knife, just like cutting tofu.
Boom! Boom!
After Ma Gu killed a bandit with one sword, Wei Zian's long stick arrived.
He swung his stick in a series of movements, like a poisonous dragon emerging from a cave. He swung out two sticks in a row, each hitting the chest of the two bandits.
The purpose of stick fighting is to overwhelm the opponent with force and win with strength.
As a result, under the powerful impact, the chests of the two bandits collapsed immediately, and they flew backwards, broke through the wall behind them, and fell on the rubble, apparently dead.
After taking care of two bandits with one move, Wei Zian did not stop. He swept his stick across, sweeping towards the remaining bandits.
"My good disciple, please don't kill them all, leave a few for the master!"
Seeing this, Ma Gu was immediately shocked and rushed forward, fearing that if he was a little slower, all the heads would be snatched away by his apprentice.
On the other side, Master Magu and his apprentice were killing people. With their strength alone, they killed more than a dozen powerful bandits, who fled in fear and screamed in agony.
The fat middle-aged master and his disciples were all stunned, staring at the scene in amazement.
