"Damn it, I thought there was money to be made, but I didn't expect it was a few beggars!" Some people who arrived from behind cursed and spat.
Old woman Su bravely looked towards these people.
A group of more than ten people, all riding horses and dressed in fine clothes, wearing big cloaks and furs, each holding a torch, illuminated the small space brightly.
The most frightening thing is the aura coming out of their bodies, which is sinister and cruel. Everyone has the smell of blood on them! Some people immediately even hung up the motionless men and women around their waists. It was not known whether they had fainted or died.
Old woman Su's face turned pale and her teeth were chattering. They had encountered horse bandits!
Old man Su and Su Da and Su Er were not much better, with their hearts in their throats.
They are just ordinary people. If they had not been exiled, they would have lived their duties in Dahuai Village, working from sunrise to sunset until they died of old age.
Where have I seen such a battle?
They had only heard a few words about horse bandits from other people before.
Now facing this kind of ruthless bandit, all four of them felt cold all over.
The leader of the bandit drove his horse slowly to the earthen stove, took a condescending glance, then pulled out the saber from his waist, leaned over the fire beside the stove and pulled it, and the fishbones and fish bones that had been buried in the ashes were pulled out.
"If a beggar can eat so many fish, then he is a rich beggar." The horse bandit Jiejie laughed twice, his smile not reaching his eyes, his triangular eyes cold and ruthless. He straightened up and waved his big knife in the air, " There are people hiding behind them, including women and young ones. Kill the young ones, take back the women and throw them into the Xunxunju, and throw the men into the stockade to work."
He spoke without any emotion at all and gave orders directly.
These words fell into the ears of the Su family, and they were filled with fear and hatred, and their hearts were cold.
The blood in Su Da Su Er's bones was aroused, and he was so angry that he grabbed the dead branch at hand and rushed towards the horse bandit, "You bastards, I will fight with you!"
Old woman Su and old man Su yelled with red eyes, "Boss, second brother!"
The horse bandit looked at the people rushing over and laughed wildly, "I don't know whether to live or die! Brothers, kill!"
There were many people in the back who responded, whistling, "Kill!"
What was a peaceful place one moment will turn into a slaughterhouse in the next moment.
The horse bandits rode in circles around the fire, shouting and laughing, surrounding Old Lady Su and the others, and frequently kicked down those who rushed over to fight, like a cat teasing a mouse.
For them, killing is just a game for fun.
At this moment, the screams and cries of women and children could be heard from behind the pile of soil, and the horse bandits pulled them out.
At this scene, the Su family's eyes were split open and their hearts were filled with powerlessness and despair.
Tianbao was hugged tightly by the woman, so hard that she could hardly breathe.
Warm liquid dripped down her face.
She reached out and touched it, and when she looked up, she saw her mother's tears.
Mother cried.
Grandpa and grandma are also crying, dad is crying, uncle and aunt are crying, aunt and brothers are also crying.
Tianbao's hands clenched into fists for a moment, and his black eyes glowed red, burning his whole eyes red like a spark of fire.
"Well!"
With a muffled groan, the heavy object fell to the ground.
The wild laughter and whistles in the forest suddenly stopped.
The horse bandits watched helplessly as their companions suddenly covered their necks with blood gushing out, their eyes suddenly fell off their horses. Before they could realize what had happened, it was their turn next.
Follow in the footsteps of your peers.
A dozen people died in an instant.
The torches they were waving fell to the ground, and the flames danced and burned, reflecting the dead expressions of those who fell to the ground.
The crying of the Su family also stopped at this moment. They looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief and couldn't calm down for a long time.
I thought they were about to become the dead souls of the sword, but why were these horse bandits the ones who died? !
Liu Yuelan, three women, He Daxiang and Su Xiuer, huddled together, panting heavily and hugging their three little children. Fortunately, they were not allowed to see such a bloody scene, otherwise it would have been a lifelong nightmare.
Su Da Su Er had already rushed back to his wife and children immediately, hugged them, and escaped from death, still in shock.
"I don't know which knight came to the rescue. Please show up and see me. The old woman kneels down to thank her benefactor!" Old woman Su and old man Su supported each other and looked around the wilderness.
Someone saved them.
A family of eleven lives, such a great favor cannot be denied.
At the foot of the mountain at night, the shadows of the dry trees are strange and the wind is rustling.
A figure appeared from behind the tree and landed in front of the Su family for a moment.
He was dressed in black and almost blended into the night. He was tall and thin, with a leather mask on his face, only revealing a pair of eyes, which were cold and sharp.
"No need to say thank you, I'm just following my orders. My master is grateful for those fresh pears and ordered me to come and escort you through the ancient road of Yudu." Ziyi spoke with a low voice.
"That lady...? What should we do with such a great kindness?" The Su family looked at each other, grateful but at a loss.
Ziyi said in a deep voice, "My lady is kind-hearted. I know that you are going to Yongzhou. You must pass through the ancient road of Yudu on the way. Bandits are entrenched here and there are dangers everywhere. It is not suitable to stay for a long time. The top priority is to leave here first, otherwise I will not be able to wait for the remnants of the bandits to come. I can protect your whole family."
"Boss, second brother, hurry up! Pack your things and we'll leave immediately!" After hearing this, Mrs. Su made a decision immediately without saying a word.
Without mentioning the information revealed in Zi Yi's words, it was impossible for them to continue to stay here just because the place was full of corpses. If the adults were not frightened, the children would also be frightened.
With quick movements, Su Dasu threw the pots, bowls and cloth bags into the car, pulled the car and drove away.
After this encounter, the two of them were really frightened.
They had never traveled far, so how did they know that the ancient road to Yudu was so dangerous!
During this period, the whole family did not look away, and no one dared to look at the body lying on the ground. Just smelling the strong fishy smell in the air made them gag frequently.
The torches on the ground were fading, and the flames were lingering and dancing. The light flickered on and off, making the scene even more eerie and terrifying.
Ziyi glanced at the dead horse bandits indifferently, and his eyes only stopped for a moment before passing over the throats of these people.
The horse bandits were all hit by his hidden weapons and died with their throats pierced.
After the Su family left, another group of horse bandits arrived.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, he gritted his teeth and became murderous.
"Brother, no one is alive! All of them have their throats pierced by something! Who dares to kill on our territory!" The man who went to check the wounds said angrily.
The horse bandit, who was called the eldest brother, had a gloomy face and dark eyes, "They were all killed in one blow?"
"Yes... wait! No!" The man who was the first to speak looked at the chest of the corpse in front of him and noticed something strange. He used his hands to pull away the corpse's clothes and his pupils suddenly narrowed. "There is also a wound on the chest! It's in the heart! The wound is extremely small. Can't you tell it was injured by a hidden weapon, like a needle? Brother, there are two fatal wounds!"
The light was dim in the night, and the dead people were all wearing thick jackets, large cloaks, and furs. Therefore, the wound on the heart was difficult to find without careful inspection.
And because the wound is too small, the blood gradually coagulates before it can seep out, making it easier to deceive people.
