"Good thief, I finally caught you!" Liu Jingchang came to his senses, and couldn't help but said with joy and resentment: "I chased through two states and six counties, killed so many lives, and lost so many of my sons; now look at what I will do Prepare it well..."
Although he had been chasing the scene for more than a month, this was the first time he saw with his own eyes the true appearance of this notorious beast master. Although the other party was dressed as a grey-faced hunter, the ill-fitting animal skin jacket and exposed hands and feet were almost the same.
"I also ask your noble officer to join me and interrogate this officer on the spot." Then, Liu Jingchang turned to Jiang Tian with a respectful smile and said: "Let's see how I, Zuo Wuwei, can discipline this guy and tell the truth. Don’t dare to conceal or omit anything!”
"What a beautiful idea!" However, the captured hunter/beast master suddenly raised his head and face, which was beaten with blood, and said with a ferocious smile: The next moment, his eyes turned white and his body was covered with blood. He convulsed, screamed loudly and kept vomiting.
I saw him vomiting digestion and gastric juice at first, and then turned into wisps of blood; as the vomited blood became thicker and darker, an indescribable stench spread in the air; just as his body curled up At the same time as he stood up, his tied limbs were also twisted and deformed in the struggle.
"Damn it! Damn it!" Liu Jingchang couldn't help but angrily stamped his feet when he saw this: "Could this guy have taken poison beforehand! Come on, hold him down and get the dung juice..." The next moment, Jiang Tian didn't hesitate. Pushing him away, he said, "Be careful of fraud. Everyone else should get out of the way."
When Murong Wu, Li Huan and others who were standing nearby heard this, they couldn't help but fly away in shock after hearing this. But those sergeants who were scrambling to try to restrain the opponent again did not react so quickly; some even looked at Liu Jingchang and asked for instructions: "Is this?"
The next moment everything changed suddenly. On the struggling and twitching beast master, several layers of ropes made of old cowhide almost broke apart in the sound of explosions in the air; it was like a strong wind exploded out of thin air on the spot, and those who restrained their hands and feet The sergeant couldn't control himself and was thrown away.
The beast master, who seemed to have obviously dislocated joints all over his body, was also shaking and twisting, his whole body expanded and stretched, and the dislocated joints of his limbs were restored in the blink of an eye; while his hands and feet quickly sprouted sharp claws, and his face The bloody mouth protrudes from a cleft and canine teeth.
It is strikingly similar to the green-skinned ghost-like beings that Jiang Tian encountered in the ghost market; only the texture of the sudden bursts is not green and black, but a pale gray-white. The beast master, who immediately turned into a gray-white ghost, roared and crashed into the space between the left and right sergeants, and blood splattered on the ground.
The next moment, he was panting heavily and drooling, while licking the remains of flesh and blood on his fingers and claws, and said in an indistinct voice: "It's all your fault for forcing me to this point! Let's all die." , hissing and roaring, he shook off the many surrounding sergeants and pounced on Jiang Tian/Liu Jingchang.
However, what moved faster than the gray-white ghost man was the lightning-like sword light coming towards him. Between the afterimages of lightning and flint, most of the palms with sharp claws flew into the air, spurting blood; and the gray-white ghost man who jumped into the air suddenly fell headlong into the mud.
However, it just felt and discovered that the fingertips were cut off and bleeding profusely, and it couldn't help but scream in agony. The next moment, it was suddenly dragged up by a huge force from the calf, like an iron hoop made of steel. It involuntarily turned somersaults in the air and hit the muddy ground.
Once, twice, three times, four times... At this moment, many of the soldiers present were stunned. They could only watch helplessly as the grey-white ghost man, who was originally so powerful and powerful, was picked up by Jiang Tian. It was as big as a big sack, and it was repeatedly beaten and beaten on the ground with one hand.
Between the broken pieces of the claws and body fluids flying and splashing, and the mud and gravel on the ground shaking, there were constant and tragic wails. In the end, his body was as tattered as a pastry cake, and he was thrown onto a rock surface by Jiang Tian, causing large areas of blood to flow out.
He then shook off the fur that had been torn from his hand due to too tight a squeeze, and said to Murong Wu and Li Huan who had gathered around them again: "This thing is not good. It has no strength and reaction instinct, but no response skills and experience." , it’s nothing more than a scaremonger.”
At this time, the military guards carefully surrounded the ghost man/beast master who was thrown like a rotten cake on the rocks; only to find that he was still alive. The bloody wounds and soft bone fragments were also tightening and swelling again, and he couldn't help but retreat in an uproar.
At this time, Jiang Tian spoke again: "Don't underestimate this thing. You have to chop off all the limbs to prevent it from recovering." Before he finished speaking, Liu Jingchang rolled to the ground twice and was covered in mud and water. , without hesitation, he stepped forward with his knife and chopped off the ghost man's squirming limbs.
The severed limbs suddenly lost their squirming activity as the large globs of dirty blood spurted out, and turned into soft pieces of rotten flesh. However, the wound left by the human stick also quickly shrank and closed and no longer spurted blood, leaving only a pale texture.
"This is not enough!" Jiang Tian then said: He called the crowd to come forward, stuffed an iron rod into the crack of the ghost man's broken canine teeth, stirred and poked suddenly, and then eroded the blood. One of the tongues was pulled out, and the front end showing bony apex tubes was cut off directly.
Then, fill it with a fist-sized obsidian pebble, and then use a leather cover to cover the head and neck tightly, leaving only a breathing area for the nostrils. In this way, even if the flesh, flesh and canine teeth in the crack want to grow back in the future, it will never be able to produce any lethal or harmful effects.
After completing the basic harmless treatment, Jiang Tian said to Liu Jingchang who was standing by: "After it becomes like this, it is basically impossible to interrogate anything on the spot. It needs to be sent to a special place for a little more time." After you recover, you can interrogate slowly."
"Thank you for your help. I will obey your instructions." Liu Jingchang, who was dumbfounded by this series of operations, quickly bent over and clasped his fists to salute: After all, no one has captured the beast master alive so far. This is a miracle. Great credit, even if it is in the capacity of assisting.
The next moment, he slapped the veteran soldier next to him hard without hesitation, sending him rolling on the muddy ground like a top. Immediately, Liu Jingchang stepped on his chest, drew a knife and put it on his neck, saying: "Looking at the good things you have done, what else can you say!"
Seeing that the private soldier closed his eyes and said nothing, Liu Jingchang looked at Jiang Tian and suddenly put the knife under his arm and said: "He Si is a private soldier who has been with me for many years. I offended him." Therefore, I cannot absolve myself of the blame, so I will use this arm to pay for it."
He Si, the soldier on the ground, heard the words and struggled fiercely with eyes wide open. However, he was stepped down by Liu Jingchang, who had a resolute face. Without hesitation, he dragged his hand upwards. He felt a sharp pain in his armpit, but the handle of the knife he was holding fell out of his hand, and he couldn't help but look at it in surprise.
"No need. I don't need it, and I don't like this kind of compensation." Jiang Tian kicked Heng Dao away, and then slowly said: "However, I just need a place that is familiar with Duji Road. As a guide, let him use the next five years of his life to repay it!"
"If that's the case! That's four blessings." Liu Jingchang was relieved when he heard this: "Thank you for your kindness. I am willing to use my wealth as a guarantee. I should do my best and obey my orders." After all, he was being taken care of by a future man. It is sometimes more troublesome for the supervisor to hold a grudge than to die.
After uncovering this little episode, going down the mountain with the ghost man/beast master's human stick in a rattan basket and a few strange beast heads as proof seemed uneventful. However, when Jiang Tian and others were waiting, they parted ways with Liu Jingchang's troops, who were heading directly to the Eastern Capital, and turned back the way they came.
But in the distance, they saw the smoke trail rising in the direction of Yedian, and everyone couldn't help but speed up their horses and speed up their pace. You should know that the luggage, carriages and horses of Jiang Tian and his party are still left in this wild store; Zhang Wusheng and two other accompanying men are responsible for taking care of them.
Accompanying them were Liu Jingchang's thoughts; headed by his own soldier He Si, there were two temporary guards riding armored horses. This official road is enough to deal with most emergencies.
Not long after, Li Huan, who went out to investigate, emerged from the bushes with fallen leaves and grass branches all wet. Reported to Jiang Tian: "There are dozens of suspected thieves who are attacking the wild store and setting fire inside, but there are still sounds of fighting inside."
"In this case, let's go all out to clear out the thieves on the outside, and then use all our strength to surround and attack the inside; try to ensure that everything is caught in the jar and nothing is missed." Jiang Tian made a decisive decision: "No!" More than 20 armed guards led by He Si immediately He flew out in response.
Immediately, they dismounted one after another before arriving at Kinnodian. He took off the bow and arrows and crossbow from the saddle, scattered them around and used the trees as cover, bowed slightly and walked forward in small steps. Not long after, the faint sound of short string playing was heard, and several thieves guarding the intersection fell to the sound.
When Jiang Tian and others followed up, they saw several corpses scattered among the trees, with their necks wiped or stabbed to death; only one sergeant with an injured arm was left behind. He came down and waited with a crossbow. Obviously, compared to the alien beasts, they are better at attacking people.
At this time, the thief who was lingering in the courtyard of the wild store, rummaging around for something, also woke up when the whistle on the wall suddenly fell. However, it was too late by this time. More than a dozen crossbows fired alternately against the gap in the uneven earth wall, instantly killing and overwhelming most of the people.
There were also several particularly cunning thieves who shot along the blind corners of the wall, then reached the door and roared out with their swords. However, what greeted them were five armed guards surrounding the exit, wearing armor and holding knives and spears. They were stabbed over and chopped down to the ground almost as soon as they met.
