After spending more than an hour and detouring nearly ten miles on the mountain road, Lu Yuan finally bypassed the people from the Black Wolf Gang and returned to his cave.
Wow!
In the cold stream, I grabbed a handful of ice water and wiped my face, washing away the blood on my body.
The ice water melted from the first snow melted into the stream, bringing a bone-chilling chill. Lu Yuan, who was tired from walking a long way up the mountain, was washed away by this chill, and his whole body instantly became much more energetic.
After cleaning up a little, he picked up his bow and arrow, turned around and walked towards his cave.
The stream and the cave are very close. The distance of more than a hundred steps can be passed in the blink of an eye.
However, when he was still ten steps away from the entrance of the cave, his eyes swept across the door and fell on the covering vines. Lu Yuan's eyes instantly froze.
"Someone has been here."
However, he saw that the originally dense vines that he had carefully arranged had changed their orientation. Although some details of the vine placement had been restored, they were no longer the same as when he came out.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan instantly took a few steps back, staying far away from the vines.
"A stranger entered my cave. Who is it?"
Almost subconsciously, he thought of the people from the Black Wolf Gang he had just met.
Although the Black Wolf Gang controls the commodity trade in Dayu County, this gang only controls the terminal trade in the county, and has no interest in the mountain as a ready source of external goods.
In the past few years, I have never heard of anyone from the Black Wolf Gang visiting the mountains.
But now, a large group of Black Wolf gang members have entered Lantau Island, as if they are looking for someone.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
"Those people from the Black Wolf Gang are here to chase the man who entered my cave."
Lu Yuan didn't think it was from the Wild Wolf Gang, because if it was really the Wild Wolf Gang, the other party would have a large number of people, so he would just have to come in openly and openly according to his past domineering style.
How could I even help you thoughtfully restore the vines used to cover the door?
At the moment when the Black Wolf Gang entered the mountain, someone suddenly entered his cave and tried to cover it up.
The two events before and after are so close to each other. Who would believe it if they said they were not related?
After thinking about this, Lu Yuan looked at the cave in front of him that was covered by vines, his expression a little uncertain.
He has always hated trouble.
I have an infinite lifespan. Even if I am suffering a little now, if I continue to endure it slowly, there will always be a day when I will succeed, and then good days will be waiting for me.
But he hid in the mountains and was so stubborn that trouble still came to his door.
"It's true that when people sit at home, disaster comes from heaven."
Lu Yuan whispered something in his mouth, and finally raised his hand suddenly, stringing the hunting bow in his hand and stringing an arrow. An arrow flew out and sank directly into the back of the vines.
Ding!
There was a clear sound of gold and iron, and then a figure was seen crashing through the vines and flying out quickly.
However, the figure had just reached mid-air, and three more arrows flew towards him, all targeting him with incomparable accuracy.
Although he couldn't use any force in the air, the figure didn't know how to do it. His body twisted out of thin air, and at the same time he waved a long sword in his hand. With a few strokes, the two arrows were cut off.
But the arrows came so fast and urgent that the man only had time to stop two, but the third one could no longer hide and was hit directly in the shoulder.
The huge force hit him, sending his body flying backwards and smashing towards the ground.
But before he could land, several more arrows flew towards him, hitting his chest and thigh respectively, and one even went directly through his neck.
"hehe……"
The figure fell to the ground, a burst of blood gushing out of his throat. After struggling twice, he lost his voice.
Lu Yuan saw it from a distance and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Although he shot down the person, he did not approach rashly. Instead, he continued to raise his hand and fired another arrow towards the motionless figure on the ground in the distance.
Pfft, the arrow penetrated the man's temple and sank directly into his brain.
Now, even if this person is the King of Heaven, I cannot die anymore.
"Phew, it's so dangerous."
After confirming that the person was dead, Lu Yuan put down his hunting bow, then wiped his sweat with a look of fear on his face.
If he hadn't been vigilant before, he would have realized something was wrong when he was still some distance away from the cave entrance, and would have opened a safe distance first.
Otherwise, if you walk into the cave rashly, you may be killed directly by the person ambushing you.
Lu Yuan's heart palpitated when he thought of the speed at which the man flew through the air, his sharp swordsmanship, and his strange body movements that could twist in mid-air.
"This is definitely a martial arts master."
He confirmed this, then thought of something, and hurriedly stepped forward to the body on the ground.
After he got closer and could clearly see the face of the man on the ground, Lu Yuan was startled and recognized him: "Ma Jiqing."
This person turned out to be the martial arts swordsman who killed Zhang Biao and five others on the street that day.
"Why is he here?" He had doubts in his mind, but he quickly thought: "By the way, there are people from the Black Wolf Gang in the mountains. Could it be that the Black Wolf Gang was seeking revenge, so they escaped into the mountains. Do you want to hide?"
Ma Jiqing killed the Black Wolf Gang, and the other party would definitely not give up.
Before he died that day, Zhang Biao once said that the leader of the Black Wolf Gang was a disciple of the Iron Sword Sect, and he should also be from the martial arts sect.
"So, this is revenge?"
While Lu Yuan was speaking, he had already reached out and groped for Ma Jiqing's body, and then discovered several bloody wounds on the other party's body.
This man's thighs, chest and back all had marks cut open by sharp blades. Most of his clothes were soaked in blood. He had obviously lost too much blood.
If not, it might not be that simple for him to kill this martial arts master with Dacheng's "rudimentary archery skills".
"It seems that he was seriously injured a long time ago, so he hid in my cave. By chance, I came back, and then he was going to kill him and silence him?"
Lu Yuan didn't think that Ma Jiqing was hiding quietly behind the vines just now because he wanted to say hello to him.
The other party was a murderous Jianghu man. That day he killed Zhang Biao and others with one sword strike, without any mercy at all, and very neatly.
How could such a desperado leave anyone alive in order to ensure his own safety?
If you really fall into the opponent's hands, it will be good if you can give him a blow with a sword.
"You wanted to kill me, and then I killed you, fair and square."
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Lu Yuan held a book in his hand and a large money bag in his other hand, with a smile on his face.
Although it was a bit more dangerous this time, the killing was not in vain.
He put the books and money bag close to his body, picked up the long sword that the opponent had dropped on the ground, and after taking the trophies, he dragged Ma Jiqing's body towards the back of the mountain.
Of course you can't bury people where you live.
Not only would it be easier to leave clues, but it would also make living in a panic.
Fortunately, there is a cliff nearby, and below it is a deep pit covered with vegetation. It is always uninhabited, and I don't know what dangerous things are hiding in it.
Perfect for disposing of corpses.
After spending more than an hour, Lu Yuan dragged the body to the cliff five miles away from his cave. He raised his leg and kicked the body, and the body rolled down the cliff.
"Well, when those beasts come over smelling the fishy smell, all traces will be gone in two days."
Lu Yuan stared at the dark bottom of the cliff below for a while. A gust of cold wind blew up. He shuddered, turned around and walked towards the cave.
After a busy day, he was also a little tired.
At this moment, I just want to go back to the cave, fill my stomach, and then have a good sleep.
