Looking around, there was still fresh horse manure on the ground. It was obvious that these bandits had not been away for long. Li Xiuyuan thought to himself, is this the fate of the people?
It took a while to drag the dead man to the edge of a slope.
With a wave of his hand, there were two talisman papers, which instantly burst into flames.
The soul returns to heaven and earth, but the body cannot be exterminated in the wilderness. Only when dust returns to dust and soil returns to earth can Li Xiuyuan feel a little more at ease.
All the way back to the carriage, Li Xiuyuan said to the lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion: "It's not very peaceful ahead. Follow me from a distance, don't be anxious."
Miss Xiangfu naturally followed Li Xiuyuan's arrangements, so the carriage Li Xiuyuan was riding in opened the way, followed a hundred feet away by two carriages carrying women's family members.
The driver didn't know the anger in Li Xiuyuan's heart, so he thought it was for safety and didn't ask.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan released his powerful consciousness to look for the bandits who had not gone far.
As long as he didn't run far away, he would have a way to find them.
The imperial city paid off. Less than half an hour after the carriage drove, Li Xiuyuan saw a group of people lighting a fire and preparing to cook by a creek not far from the road.
What surprised him was that there were not many bandits, only fifteen of them in total, and there was actually a woman among them.
Are women also bandits? This was the first time he had seen it.
From a distance, Li Xiuyuan smelled the aroma of meat and saw more than fifteen horses tied by the woods not far away. They must have been the people who died in vain before the bandits robbed them.
The sudden appearance of a carriage made the bandits by the creek suddenly excited.
Perhaps in their eyes, there is another fat sheep, which can be enough for them to have a good meal.
Even vigilant bandits won't care when they see a lone carriage in front of them.
Further away, two coachmen saw the carriage in front of them stop, and they immediately stopped the reins in their hands and stopped the running horses.
"Brother, a fat sheep is here, let me go and take a look!"
The female bandit in a green silk skirt raised her head from the creek and waved to Li Xiuyuan who was stopped by the roadside.
"Third sister, be careful." A middle-aged man sitting by the fire and grilling meat frowned because he noticed something was wrong.
After listening to the middle-aged man's words, the two people surrounding the fire also stood up.
After thinking about it, he picked up his sword from the ground, followed the female bandit from a distance, and walked towards Li Xiuyuan who was parked on the roadside.
Seeing the bandits rushing over, the driver looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked nervously: "Shopkeeper, do you want us to withdraw? These are probably those bandits."
"Don't be afraid, I'm looking for bandits."
Li Xiuyuan quietly put his long sword behind him and said to the coachman: "Just stay here and watch the fun. I will share the money with the three of you later."
The coachman shivered, dropped his riding crop in fear, and ran far away to his companions behind him. Even if he wanted to share the money, it would be better to wait until you kill the bandit.
The female bandit who came from a distance looked at Li Xiuyuan on the roadside and smiled: "Brother, why are you here?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and said coldly: "I came all the way just to find bandits who killed people and stole goods. Did you kill those old people and children in front of you?"
A gust of mountain wind blew by, fluttering Li Xiuyuan's night-like gown. In the eyes of the female bandit, Li Xiuyuan's eyes were a bit colder than the ice in winter.
Seeing Li Xiuyuan's calm expression, the female bandit felt a trace of murderous intent for some reason and took a step back unconsciously.
"Excuse me, did you kill the old man and the child in front of you? Why didn't you even let the child go?"
Li Xiuyuan's voice was calm, without a trace of anger, but the female bandit screamed in surprise. He turned around and shouted: "Brother, come on, this guy is here to avenge those guys in front..."
The female bandit felt something was wrong and was about to turn around and run away.
I saw a sword flashing in the sun,
I felt a chill in my throat, and then I covered my neck with both hands, unable to speak anymore.
Li Xiuyuan just used the sword-drawing technique and cut the throat of the female bandit with one sword.
After confirming the identities of the bandits, he just wanted to annihilate them all here. He was not a government official and would not accept the surrender of the bandits.
After arriving in Da Qin, although Li Xiuyuan had no cultivation, his sword speed was much faster. The female bandit's throat was sealed by his sword and she fell softly to the ground.
The two bandits who followed finally became angry, and their anger was instantly ignited when their companions were killed.
While shouting: "Brother, Third Sister was killed by this guy!" He raised the sword in his hand and slashed at Li Xiuyuan.
Until this moment, Li Xiuyuan still did not move. His hand was very steady, and there was not even a drop of blood on the sword.
This is just the most ordinary sword in Da Qin, a long sword that was modified in the East China Sea fishing village.
It is two feet shorter than the long sword and long knife in the hands of the bandits.
It is only a three-foot long sword, but it can make him draw the sword like lightning, and chop the enemy like chopping vegetables and melons.
Not to mention Zhao Meng and a group of guards, even the children who followed Xu Fu began to practice the sword retracting and drawing skills, which was beyond Li Xiuyuan's imagination.
In his opinion, even if he leaves one day, he will leave something behind in the world of Da Qin.
At least he had taught Xu Fu and Zhang Liang the sword-drawing skills of Xu Fu and others, as well as the skills of brewing wine.
The bandit with a long knife in his hand rushed forward in large strides, trying to knock Li Xiuyuan away like a wild bull and then kill him in the wilderness.
On his right, there was another bandit who also rushed forward with a five-foot long sword. He roared: "You bastard, you killed my third sister, I will tear you apart!"
The unfazed Li Xiuyuan sank his waist and dodged to the right in the blink of an eye when the bandit's long knife slashed him...
And the bandit who pounced on him slashed out with a fatal blow. In his opinion, there was absolutely no deviation at all!
However, his full-strength sword failed!
The slashing attack did not injure the man in black in front of him, the man who killed his companion and had no expression on his face.
How could this be?
The bandit believed in the knife in his hand. He could see it clearly and the timing of the knife was just right. How could he miss it?
However, Li Xiuyuan did not pause at all. Just after avoiding the bandit who was slashing with his sword, he flashed to the right and the long sword in his hand was slashed out like lightning.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
The two long swords met in the air. After a spark was struck, the long sword moved forward and cut off the arm of the bandit who was holding the long sword.
A blood arrow spurted out, and before the bandit holding the sword could even cry out in pain...
Li Xiuyuan had turned his sword upside down and slashed at the bandit behind him who was dazed with the sword in his hand!
There was a puff, and before the bandit could resist with his sword, Li Xiuyuan's sword had already pierced his chest.
The bandit's clothes were instantly dyed red, and before he could cry out, Li Xiuyuan's long sword had already slashed out like lightning, and there was a clicking sound twice.
Two heads had already flown out, and within a few breaths, three bandits had already fallen under Li Xiuyuan's sword.
By the stream, the bandits in front of Yandui were frightened by the series of changes and froze in place.
What he thought was a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered actually killed three of his companions. Even the bandit boss sitting in front of the fire pile regretted letting the female bandit come forward.
Because until now, he still didn't see a trace of fear on Li Xiuyuan's face.
This is so wrong. The bandit boss in front of the fire swallowed hard and said harshly: "Who are you? Who sent you to cause trouble for us!"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said coldly: "I'm here to take your lives on behalf of the old people, children, and women who died under your swords, what do you think?"
"You are meddling in your own business and seeking death. Let's kill this guy together, brothers!" the bandit boss shouted.
"Kill him and avenge Third Sister and the others!"
"Aren't you good at killing people? I'm going to cut your flesh one by one, and I won't let you die for three days and three nights!" one of the bandits roared.
There was no change on Li Xiuyuan's face. He didn't even think about charging and fighting the bandits in the wilderness. He just stood there like a tree.
The remaining twelve bandits surrounded him. In their opinion, they could chop Li Xiuyuan into a pile of pulp with just one strike.
At this time, the twelve bandits who rushed forward turned into twelve fallen leaves and twelve flying flowers in Li Xiuyuan's eyes.
Twelve falling snows in the long cold winter.
He was waiting for the moment when the fallen leaves, flying flowers, and falling snow fell on his shoulders to draw his sword!
As a result, the bandits saw the most incredible scene in their lives...
The moment they pounced on Li Xiuyuan like hungry wolves, this motionless man in black clothes suddenly had a faint light shining in front of his eyes.
By the time they saw these lights clearly, time for all things in the world had stopped in an instant.
The bandits holding swords looked down at the blood on their chests and trembled involuntarily.
A heartbreaking pain stabbed into their hearts, causing them to let out countless heart-rending wails like dying wolves.
Li Xiuyuan, who was burning with anger, did not hesitate at all. His sword came out to Zhan Xue, and countless sword energy struck the necks and chests of the twelve bandits like lightning.
In the blink of an eye, the bandits' wailing suddenly stopped, a gust of wind passed by, and the eleven bandits fell to the ground like weeds in the wind.
The eleven bandits fell one by one, but the bandit leader wanted to escape. The moment he turned around, a sword energy penetrated his chest, and he fell to the ground dead.
Pieces of talisman fell down, and flames burned quietly.
Li Xiuyuan found a lot of things from the bandits. In addition to gold, silver, and money, there was also a letter, an unopened letter.
Gently tearing the fire paint into pieces, Li Xiuyuan frowned while reading it. After reading the content of the letter, he couldn't help but chuckled: "Things looking for death."
He didn't expect that someone would invite bandits to hunt down his group like Zhao Gao in the Imperial City.
And because his group stayed in the town for a while longer, the bandits eventually ran ahead of him and killed more than a dozen innocent old people and children.
I am afraid that the instigator never imagined that this letter would eventually fall into his hands.
Looking at the few white clouds floating in the sky, Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and said: "I am short of money right now, so you are welcome to come and trouble me."
The flames were burning gently. Li Xiuyuan walked to the edge of the woods and untied all the horses, leaving only two in his hands.
Looking at the dozens of unbridled horses, Li Xiuyuan said softly: "From now on, you are free and go find your new life."
Just as the horses were running around happily, two carriages were approaching slowly from a distance.
Li Xiuyuan looked at Miss Xiangfu's head peeking out from the car window and smiled: "I'll take care of all those bandits, and I'll share the money with you all tonight."
The coachman looked at the flames still burning in the wilderness and murmured: "All... are all dead?"
Meng Jiang also poked his head around, frowned and asked, "Are there really bandits?"
