After not sleeping all night, Wang Chen returned to Luo's house, preparing to take a rest before leaving.
The bandits have been dealt with, and their village should be back on track soon.
In the afternoon, just when Wang Chen was about to leave, Luo Wenming came back.
When he learned that Wang Chen was leaving, Luo Wenming offered words to persuade him to stay.
"Brother Wang Chen, our village will celebrate the elimination of bandits tonight. You have a good meal and one more night of rest. It won't be too late to leave tomorrow."
Seeing that Luo Wenming was sincerely trying to stay, Wang Chen couldn't refuse, so he simply stayed one more night.
In the evening, tables of wine and food were placed in the open space in front of the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village.
Inside the ancestral hall, the villagers who died in the battle have been laid to rest, and the flames of paper incense candles are beating constantly.
The villagers celebrated today's victory while comforting the spirits of the deceased.
"Village chief, Wen Wenming, what did the mayor say? Will he send people to exterminate the bandits?" asked a villager.
The village chief’s face was full of smiles, “The mayor has promised us that he will send people to destroy the black horse gang tomorrow.
I learned that a Dajiang Wufu disciple has appeared in our village and has wiped out so many bandits. A large reward will be given to our village, and generous pensions will be given to the families of the sacrificed villagers. "
Hearing this, the villagers were extremely happy.
With the bandits wiped out and a reward from the town, life will soon get better for them.
"Damn it, we finally stood up and no longer have to live in dire straits."
“In the future, we don’t have to worry anymore, and we don’t have to worry that the good life we have earned through hard mining will be squeezed.”
Many villagers shed tears while talking.
"Hahaha, drink, drink, I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight!"
Cheers and celebrations resounded throughout the village, and everyone's faces were full of yearning for a better life in the future.
Wang Chen also drank a lot of wine under Luo Wenming's persuasion.
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, a child ran over covered in blood with a pale face.
He was crying so hard that he couldn't breathe, and his eyes were full of fear.
This scene shocked everyone present, and their drunkenness was dispelled.
"Little Heizi, what's going on?" An adult frowned in a straight line.
The child named Xiao Heizi was trembling all over. His trembling hands pointed in the direction outside the village, "Bandits are coming. There are many bandits. Xiao Kunzi and the others were shot to death."
Hearing this, the smiles on everyone's faces suddenly disappeared and they suddenly became nervous.
"Bandits? Why are there still bandits coming? Could it be that the black horse gang got the news and wants to take this opportunity to kill us?"
"It shouldn't be. We didn't let anyone go this time. Even if they got the news, they didn't rush over so quickly."
Everyone analyzed in horror.
"Xiao Heizi, have you seen clearly how many people are here?"
Xiao Heizi was shaking like chaff. After thinking about it, what appeared in his mind was the scene of his best friend Xiao Kunzi dying in front of his eyes.
"Ah!! Xiao Kunzi, Xiao Kunzi was shot to death by them!"
Xiao Heizi covered his head with his hands, extremely scared.
A woman's face was full of tears and she stepped forward to hug Xiao Heizi.
Luo Wenming stood up with a solemn look on his face, "Everyone, wake up and go get your weapons."
He understood that what they would face next might be a life-and-death battle, a life-and-death battle that might wipe out the entire village.
All the villagers also knew the seriousness of the matter, picked up weapons one after another, and rushed to the outside of the village with Luo Wenming and the village chief.
Wang Chen frowned slightly and followed them to the outside of the village.
When they arrived, they saw that the entire village was surrounded. In addition to the bandits from the black horse gang, there were also men in black.
At a glance, there were nearly two hundred people.
"Damn untouchables, I left you to live like dogs. I didn't expect you to know good and evil."
At the front of the bandits, the leader of the Black Horse Gang sat on a tall horse, his face full of cold murderous intent.
He turned his eyes and looked at a young man who was also sitting on a horse next to him, "Please let your people gather together and force all those untouchables here."
The young man nodded expressionlessly, and with a wave of his hand, the men in black who surrounded the village fired crossbows.
The arrows were extremely powerful and penetrated directly into the house, killing several women and children who were hiding.
Upon seeing this, other villagers fled from their houses one after another, but were all forced out of the village by crossbow arrows.
"All the women, the elderly and children under ten years old were taken out and killed!"
The leader of the Black Horse Gang gave a cold shout, and a group of bandits behind him walked out, came to the middle of the villagers, and reached out to arrest people.
Seeing this, how could Luo Wenming and the other villagers in the village agree? They directly picked up their weapons and started fighting with the bandits.
Uh-huh!
Luo Wenming slashed with the long knife in his hand, and several bandits died tragically.
Immediately afterwards, the long knife in his hand slashed down one after another, killing all the dozen bandits who rushed to arrest people.
As a monk, those ordinary bandits are no match for him and cannot even block one of his moves.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and punched him.
That figure is the leader of the Black Horse Gang!
Luo Wenming frowned. At this moment, he had not withdrawn the long knife he had slashed out. It was just when the old power was gone and the new power was not born.
The leader of the Black Horse Gang punched very fast, and in desperation, he only had time to block with his fists.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, Luo Wenming was knocked back several steps before he could stabilize his body. The hand that punched was extremely painful.
The next moment, the leader of the Black Horse Gang quickly approached and punched out again.
Luo Wenming was beaten away again, and blood was already flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"You, a second-level Naling Realm person, dare to resist our black horse gang. You are really ridiculous."
The leader of the Black Horse Gang said disdainfully, and before turning his hand, he had already grasped a sharp spear.
The aura on his body surged, and the power of the fourth level of the Naling Realm erupted from him. As he waved the spear in his hand, it sent bursts of cold light in the air.
Uh-huh!
The spear thrust out, causing a rapid sound of breaking wind, and stabbed Luo Wenming's head extremely sharply.
Luo Wenming's face was solemn, he clenched the long knife in his hand, and stared at the spear that was thrust forward.
Seeing that the spear was getting closer and closer to him, spiritual energy surged through his body. He swung the hand holding the knife and slashed hard on the spear with the long knife.
Clang!
The spear trembled, shaking violently in the air.
Seeing this scene, the leader of the Black Horse Gang had a sneer on his face.
I saw him exerting force in his hand, the spear suddenly straightened, the direction turned, and it stabbed Luo Wenming's heart.
After the powerful explosion just now, Luo Wenming couldn't gather much spiritual energy in such a short period of time. How could he block this blow?
Just when the leader of the Black Horse Gang thought that even if his blow could not kill Luo Wenming, it would still seriously injure him, his eyes suddenly froze.
Because a spiritual talisman appeared in Luo Wenming's hand and he threw it violently.
A violent wave of spiritual energy swayed from the spiritual talisman, and at the same time there was a rich red light flashing.
"Not good!" The leader of the Black Horse Gang's heart sank, and he suddenly retracted the spear he thrust out, and at the same time, he quickly stepped back.
