Since there was no rush to get going, Hong Xiaoduo glanced around and noticed that the six kids were arguing for some reason. Had they taken care of the two robbers she had just let go?
What happened to practicing? Shouldn't we be slowly kiting and hitting him? But now's not the time to analyze that; let's deal with this thousand gold coins in front of us.
"Even if I told you, you wouldn't know. You don't need to guess anymore. It's very simple. We were just passing by, but you guys have been watching us."
To put it simply, you brought this on yourselves. It wasn't us who came looking for trouble, understand? So don't use that accusatory tone. People in your line of work should have heard the saying, "If you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet," right? Just then, he caught a glimpse of a robber trying to ambush Quan Jinghuai.
She threw a pebble, striking the robber's wrist. The blue-glowing dagger fell to the ground. Quan Jinghuai heard the noise, slashed the robber's throat with his sword, and continued fighting with another robber.
Shen Qian looked at the girl in front of him. He clearly did not sense that she had internal strength, but she had dealt with several of his men with just an ordinary soft whip.
Looking at the pebble she was playing with in her hand, that was the hidden weapon she used! She could be chatting with him casually while also being distracted by something else. Just now, with a casual flick of her wrist, she crippled one of his men's hands.
Since she knew her own identity, she should have naturally heard about her power and methods.
He genuinely enjoyed smashing heads with the mandarin duck hammers; he derived satisfaction from watching the deformed head and the red and white substance spilling out.
The girl showed no fear whatsoever. She understood the principle that there are always people more capable than oneself, and she did not consider herself truly invincible. The main reason why the government could not do anything to her despite her serious crimes was simply that she was cautious in her actions.
Careful planning before the operation, and the same caution after the success.
He only becomes a deadly killer when he takes action and wields these two pair of mandarin duck hammers.
After succeeding, he was just an ordinary small businessman. Even his wife didn't know he was the Soul-Locking Gentleman.
Of his twelve subordinates, only two had ever seen his true face, and Leng Changping was not one of them.
"Alright, enough of this rambling. I know you're not willing to surrender, and you can't escape anyway. So let's have a go?" Hong Xiaoduo said, shaking the soft whip in her hand.
Previously, from Brother Quan and Guard Liu, she learned that the man in front of her was cold-blooded. Now, observing his subordinates being dealt with one by one, he showed no sign of being affected. If it weren't for the fact that the bounty of one thousand required him to be captured alive, Hong Xiaoduo would not have spared his life at all.
"You little girl are really arrogant. You think you can capture me for a bounty? I'll send you to the underworld to dream on." After saying that, Shen Qian took off his mandarin duck hammers with both hands, leaped off his horse, and swung the hammers down at Hong Xiaoduo with his left hand.
Having already observed her moves, I knew that this distance wasn't suitable for using the pebble, so she could only use the soft whip in her hand. I was confident that my right hand was enough to defend against her whip strikes.
He was never one to show mercy to women, and now he was thinking of getting away with it quickly.
Therefore, he used all his skills, and the black mandarin duck hammers were fierce and powerful, carrying a gust of wind.
Hong Xiaoduo remained calm and composed. As she shifted to the left, she raised her soft whip and lashed it towards the opponent's left shoulder armor.
Shen Qian reacted quickly, flipping his body in mid-air while swinging his right hammer to block.
Even though he hadn't underestimated his opponent, when his right hammer solidly received the whip, he knew he had overestimated himself.
After landing on his feet, his body swayed, and his entire right arm was in pain from the shock. He tried to grab the hammer in his hand, but he could only watch helplessly as the right hammer fell to the ground and almost hit his toes.
The tendons in this arm must have been severed! It's ruined!
"I thought she was some kind of formidable character, but she's nothing special." Hong Xiaoduo glanced at the whip tip, which was still completely undamaged. As Brother Quan would say, this was because of her strong inner strength.
At this moment, Quan Jinghuai and Tian Shu had finished their business and were all looking at Hong Xiaoduo.
"Your mother is so skilled, why don't you just learn kung fu from her? Why do you need to find another master?" Lan Zechen, who had already gotten off the carriage, whispered to Tianquan.
The children felt a little disgusted when they heard this, but they knew that the old man meant no harm.
They knew Hong Xiaoduo's personality all too well. If someone of bad character wanted to come with them, she would never agree, even if they were offered a high price for food.
The little ones looked at each other, decided to pretend they hadn't heard, and continued looking ahead.
Otherwise, how can we tell this person that she only knows how to use her skills herself and doesn't know how to teach others?
Outsiders who don't know her would just misunderstand and think she doesn't want to teach at all!
“Our master is also very powerful.” Xiao Yaoguang thought for a moment and turned to Lan Zechen.
Lan Zechen glanced at the stick she was holding and subconsciously moved it to the side: "Yeah, of course, you guys are pretty good too." Especially you, little girl, you can poke someone with a stick and make them look like they've been struck by lightning.
Don't ask him why he said that or how he knew; just say he's seen it.
At this moment, Shen Qian knew he could not escape this calamity. After thinking for a moment, he said to Hong Xiaoduo, "Since you captured me for the reward, can we make a deal and let me go? I will give you five thousand taels of gold, which is all my wealth over the years. How about it?"
I admit defeat, and look, you're completely unharmed.
