From the level of the Dog-Head Military Advisor, we can know that although the Dog-Slaughtering Gang members are quite powerful, their intelligence level is generally not high. This is why Liu Qiang chose them to carry out the mission: such a group of people have strong martial arts skills but not enough brains. Even if they are caught, they will never be able to figure out the mastermind behind the scenes, and they will have no way to confess.
With such intelligence, and in the panic of the kidnapping and extortion plan being severely frustrated, how could the butcher gang think of such a question as "Whoever presses hard on the Tanzhongxue will feel pain?" As the saying goes, "Those who are involved are confused", and "the darkest place is under the lamp", the more obvious the trap, the easier it is for people to get into it, not to mention that the atmosphere at this time has been exaggerated by Su Nuannuan many times, and it has become extremely tense.
So all the members of the Dog Butchering Gang were frightened. Liu Erniu was furious and yelled, "How cunning! This stinky monk is really cunning. If you have the guts, let's fight him one-on-one. How dare you poison us? You are so shameless! Aaaaa! I don't accept it, not even when I die." Listen, nothing has happened yet, and he is already thinking about death.
Chen Jing also had a gloomy face and said in a deep voice: "Monk, it is said that monks are compassionate, but you are so vicious, aren't you afraid of being punished by the Buddha?"
My Buddha was really frightened.
The monk was shocked, but his face remained calm. Without this little bit of self-control, how could Su Nuannuan entrust him with such an important task? After hearing what Chen Jing said, he smiled and said, "Although Buddhism is compassionate, the Buddha also has thunderous means to punish the evil people in the world. I know why the donors come here. The monk is also trying to protect the people in Anping Marquis's mansion from being poisoned by the donors, so I have no guilt in my heart, and I am not afraid of being punished by the Buddha."
Chen Jing's face was uncertain, and when he looked back, he saw that his brothers were all pale and dull. It was obvious that the fact that the cake was poisonous made them afraid and retreat, but because of loyalty, they were too embarrassed to kneel down and beg for mercy, so they all looked so cowardly.
Chen Jing has always been proud of the Dog Slaughtering Gang he founded. Indeed, the Dog Slaughtering Gang has been successful for several years. Although it cannot be said that it has been successful, it has been smooth sailing, allowing them to quickly gain some fame in the Southern Six Provinces, which made him somewhat complacent. He thought that he and others just didn't have the opportunity. Once they had the opportunity, they would definitely shine in the Southern Six Provinces and even the entire Daxia martial arts world, and grow and develop as much as they can from then on.
However, the seemingly simple mission they took on this time completely exposed their true colors. It turned out that the so-called dog-slaughtering gang was nothing more than a mob, a pile of useless mud. This realization made Chen Jing feel miserable. He smiled bitterly and suddenly raised his head to look at the monk. He said sarcastically, "If I guess correctly, there should be an antidote for the poison on this cake, right?"
"Of course there is."
The monk still smiled faintly, but he had a bad feeling in his heart. As expected. Chen Jing suddenly turned around and shouted at the bandits behind him: "Brothers, do you think that if we kneel down and beg for mercy, we can get the antidote and survive, right?"
No one responded. Everyone was thinking the same thing. Only the rough man Liu Erniu understood a little bit at this moment. He shouted, "How is it possible? We are kidnapping people from the Anping Marquis Mansion. We are doing a business that can get us killed. Even if we find the antidote, how can we have a good ending if we are caught?"
The dog-slaughtering gang was stunned for a moment, then they realized: Yes, even if they get the medicine, can they survive? They are not chicken-stealing and dog-stealing, they are engaged in a business that will get them killed. If they are caught, they will be tortured and interrogated, so it is better to die quickly.
Thinking of this, the members of the Dog Slaughter Gang, who were originally as droopy as eggplants hit by frost, immediately became more aggressive. Liu Erniu took the opportunity to yell, "Boss, what are you talking about? We have lived a good life with you for several years. We drank big bowls of wine, ate big pieces of meat, and slept with beautiful women. This life is worth it. From the day we joined the Dog Slaughter Gang, our lives are no longer our own. Hehe! If your head is lost, it will only leave a scar as big as a bowl. Twenty years later, you can be a hero again."
"Good brother."
Chen Jing was also excited when he saw the bandits were getting motivated. He sneered at the monk, and quickly drew out the big knife from his waist, gritting his teeth and saying, "Brothers, let's fight them. If we are lucky, we can capture these people and force them to tell us the antidote. Go ahead."
The guys from the Dog Slaughter Gang were howling, and everyone in the temple who had been watching the bandits being fooled was also nervous. Su Nuannuan smiled bitterly and shook her head, "These idiots actually had some wisdom at the last moment. Damn it, the last trick didn't work. It's all because they were too stupid. If they were smart, they would have thought about maneuvering and getting the antidote. Who knew these guys were so stupid? It's over, it's over. This time they've shot themselves in the foot."
"Grandma, please stop complaining. What should we do now?" Aunt Jing asked anxiously, but Su Nuannuan spread her hands and smiled helplessly, "What else can we do? At this point, we really have to leave it to fate."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the monks in the hall rushed out of the door and, together with the young monk who had been talking to the bandits before, they were fighting with the bandits in the blink of an eye.
The butcher gang had many people and their martial arts were not bad. There were only a dozen monks in the temple, so they were in a tough fight. Even though Su Nuannuan didn't know martial arts or how to deploy troops, she could see that the monks were in trouble. Yin took a deep breath, suddenly raised a big rolling pin, and shouted, "If this goes on, we're all doomed. Why not go up and help the masters before they are completely defeated? Maybe we still have a chance to survive."
After saying that, she put the fortune in her arms on the ground and jumped out to join the battle. Aunt Jing was distracted and didn't have time to hold her back. She turned pale with fear and shouted to the servants behind her: "What are you waiting for? If something happens to grandma, even if we survive today, the prince will not let us go. What's more, how can we let grandma take the lead for us?"
It was like a word that awakened the dreamer. Even though the remaining people in the temple were servants of the Marquis of Anping's Mansion, who were the most servile and afraid of death, they had the example of Su Nuannuan and the words of Aunt Jing were indeed true. Once Su Nuannuan got into trouble, none of them would survive. So when Su Nuannuan rushed out, it was equivalent to pushing everyone to the edge of the cliff. If you were still afraid of death and didn't dare to rush out, you would be dead.
So dozens of wives, maids, and servants came to their senses immediately, picking up rolling pins or firewood that were nearby and rushed out. Of course, there were a few who were too timid to rush out, and hid in the corners, shivering, thinking that even if everyone died, they could still have a chance to survive if they begged for mercy from the bandits, even if they had to pay a heavy price for it, it was better than death, right?
As the saying goes, a random punch can kill a master. When these servants rushed out, they screamed in fear while swinging rolling pins and firewood sticks to hit anyone they saw. This was a big blow to both the enemy and the team. The monks were fine, but the dog-slaughtering gang members, as criminals, should have been ruthless. However, when they saw the women and children rushing out, the young girls and wives were all in tears, and they couldn't bear to kill them. The old women were in tears, which somehow reminded people of their old mothers who were still alive or no longer alive, and they couldn't kill them. For a moment, the dog-slaughtering gang members, who had originally shown their fierceness, were actually scattered and flustered by a group of women and children.
Su Nuannuan also took a gamble with the belief that she would die. At this moment, the situation suddenly became chaotic. How could she give up this opportunity? She had been learning martial arts from Duan Tingxuan for half a year. Although she still couldn't stand the horse stance steadily, she had learned a few tricks. It didn't make sense that she couldn't even beat her own cat.
It just so happened that this move was the easiest to use in this kind of environment. In addition, those bandits hoped to capture her for a chance of survival, so they did not dare to kill her. This gave her even more opportunities to perform. She swung a rolling pin with great force. Once they were touched, the members of the Dog Butcher Gang would all fall down with bruises and swollen faces.
Zhaocai then became a finishing blow, following behind Su Nuannuan, and whenever he saw an enemy fall, he would claw at him. I don't know if it was because the cat knew the meaning of its name, or if it learned it from Su Nuannuan, it actually had a bit of a greedy character. It was angry because it gave away cakes but didn't get any money. Now in the "chaos", its fierceness was aroused, and its claws were so vicious that they were not comparable to Su Nuannuan's rolling pin. All the members of the Tugou Gang who were scratched by it had bruises on their faces, and two of them almost had their eyeballs scratched out. They kept rolling on the ground and howling in pain, which made the already demoralized army even more unbearable.
The criminals were afraid of Su Nuannuan, so they would naturally not be polite to Zhaocai. However, Zhaocai was too clever. The situation was a mess, and he was able to maneuver around like a fish in water.
Chen Jing saw that this was not going to work. The Dog Slaughtering Gang had almost mobilized all its forces, but they couldn't even take down a group of women, children and monks. The damage to their reputation was a minor matter. The key point was that if they continued like this, they would even lose their lives. After all, he was the leader of the gang. He figured out the problem in a moment and shouted, "Brothers, keep the two women, and don't worry about the others, just kill them all."
The butchers were stunned. They were indeed bandits, but they only killed corrupt officials and dandy bullies in the past. They had never attacked a group of defenseless women before. It was a bit unbearable for them psychologically. However, they saw that such a group of defenseless women had forced a group of men with big knives into a miserable state. This was a life-and-death situation. Would they not give up their lives for the sake of conscience? They were bandits, not monks.
