He jumped up suddenly, leaned against the window, and looked outside.
The scene in front of him made Li Yi stunned for a moment, and then a trace of anger appeared on his face.
Outside the house, flames were blazing into the sky. A group of people were holding torches. A few people were watching, and a few others were throwing their torches into a house, which was obviously a villager's house.
What's even more outrageous is that when someone tried to rush out of the house, they were pushed back into the fire by those holding torches!
After watching for a while, Li Yi stood up and was about to leave, but was held back by a hand.
Looking back, Yue Hu squatted down behind him at some point, shaking his head desperately at him, while making a silent gesture with one hand, as if to tell him not to speak.
Li Yi thought for a while and then asked, "Do you have a grudge against that family?"
Yuehu was startled at first and wanted to cover Li Yi's mouth but was stopped by him.
Then he sighed and gestured with his hands very stubbornly: Those people are robbers. Don't speak to attract their attention. They will come every once in a while, and they will only choose one family to plunder each time, and will not Harass other villagers.
Li Yi understood instantly: "Isn't this just raising sheep? If you fatten them and then kill them, won't you resist?"
Unexpectedly, when Yue Hu heard this, he suddenly became decadent. He couldn't get any answer when he asked him again. Li Yi simply stood up, opened the door and walked out.
Yuehu was shocked when he saw this, and followed him out unconsciously.
As soon as they went out, they were discovered by the group of robbers.
The leader was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his ferocious face and he shouted.
"Brothers, it seems that there is something to gain tonight, haha!"
When a group of people saw this, they immediately understood. Without exception, they all laughed wildly. Some people holding torches even surrounded Li Yi with malicious intentions.
"Old Orion, I didn't expect you to come to my door. Have you drunk too much? Who is this kid? He can't be one of those fat sheep, right?"
The leader obviously knew Yuehu, and when he saw him cowering and hiding behind him, he called him out.
"You... don't deal with him. Just come to me if you have any problem. He... he's just a passerby."
Although his voice was trembling, Yuehu still mustered up the courage to shout, but it could be seen from his expression and movements.
Orion is really scared at this moment!
"just you?"
The leader of the bandits had a look of disdain on his face. The ferocious face reflected in the firelight twitched the muscles on his face, as if he was laughing at Yue Hu's overestimation of his abilities. However, when he saw Li Yi's unusually calm eyes, , couldn't help but be stunned.
The man in front of me seemed a little different.
"Where is this brother from? You might as well tell me."
Li Yi shook his head.
"I'm not going anywhere, but I advise you to put out the fire quickly and release the people. If someone is killed, it won't end well."
"Huh? What did you say?"
As if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, the bandit leader showed a dumbfounded expression, and then laughed wildly.
"Did you not understand the situation? Boy, I'll give you two choices. One is to tell me your name. If I know it, then you may still be able to escape. The second one is Obediently hand over all the valuables you have on you, and get out of here while your employer and employee are in a good mood, otherwise..."
Having said this, the bandit leader pulled out the knife in his hand.
Suddenly, a ray of sword light passed by. Without seeing any movement from him, a tree in front of him was struck by the ray of sword light and was split into two halves!
Is this... knife energy?
Li Yi looked at the trace that could be clearly seen by the firelight alone, and fell into thinking.
The opponent obviously didn't move, but he directly cut off a tree five meters away from him.
This is obviously not what ordinary people do!
Extraordinary?
Hmm... It's possible, but what does the name he just said mean?
Thinking of this, Li Yi shook his head.
"Then I will give you two choices. One is to do as I just said. I can pretend that nothing happened and let you go. The second one...it's actually the same, but your actions are different. Hurry up a little bit, or I'm afraid that everyone in this room will be burned to death before you can put out the fire." At this point, Li Yi stared straight at the hideous ugly face and said word by word.
"If someone is really dead by then, I will be angry!"
All the robbers present heard these words without exception. For a moment, they all thought that the inconspicuous person in front of them was crazy.
Doesn't he know how powerful the leader is?
You must know that the leader is a warrior! The sword energy just now is the best proof. Ordinary people don't have such means!
Doesn't this guy want to live?
Almost at the same time, under the roar of the bandit leader, all the strong men drew out the weapons from their waists and roared towards Li Yi because of the leader's words.
"Chop this guy down and throw it into the forest to feed the wolves!"
So, next, Yue Hu witnessed a scene he had never seen before.
The robbers, like wolves and tigers, rushed towards the lost boy he had picked up. He wanted to shout loudly to stop him, but to no avail. When he made up his mind to come forward, he found that he no longer needed He did.
Almost every one of those sturdy bandits is a trainee warrior, or is about to become a trainee warrior. Last but not least, their strength and agility far exceed that of ordinary people, and the leader is a true warrior.
This is a group of robbers with considerable combat effectiveness.
In Tsukuyomi Country, anyone who can be a bandit or bandit is almost without exception related to a warrior or directly a warrior.
Because ordinary people are helpless in the face of warriors, banditry has always been rampant in Tsukuyomi Country. Even though the government has made great efforts to rectify it, and even formed a government patrol team to patrol day and night, it has not been able to eliminate banditry.
There were even cases where powerful bandits directly took over the government's patrol team. Over time, the government, which had been unable to achieve results, just let it go, and the people also figured out a survival plan.
Just like this "sheep raising" model.
You must know that these bandits are not just plundering money. If any family finds a minor with potential, these bandits will kidnap them and use them as their reserve members.
The bandits in a country have actually developed a reserve team. One can imagine how rampant the bandits in this country are.
But today, they clearly hit the wall.
Those wolf-like gangsters obviously didn't expect that the seemingly helpless young man in front of them had strength that they couldn't even imagine, let alone their proud identity and strength. In front of the other party, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Li Yi didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, he just curled his lips, and a small golden sword slowly rose up and floated in mid-air. Before the robbers had time to react, between the lightning and flint, it seemed that Just a golden flash of light flew past all the robbers.
Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of screams of crying for father and mother.
A rain of blood turned the ground red. The bandits who had been showing off their power just now were crawling on the ground with their broken arms and limbs in their arms, crying, looking at the people in front of them in horror with eyes that looked like they had seen a ghost. A very ordinary looking man.
Some of them cast their gaze on their leader, who had not yet made any move, with a glint of hope and expectation in their eyes.
They all knew that the man in front of them who had killed them all without even raising his hand was no longer something they could fight against.
If anyone present could compete with him, it was only the leader.
Then they saw their leader make a scene that left everyone speechless.
With a plop, the ferocious face just now was suddenly filled with a flattering smile, and he fell directly to the ground, then raised his head, looking longingly at Li Yi who was condescending.
Behind him, the small golden sword was still flashing.
"Master Immortal, have mercy on me. This villain is just following the order of the Immortal."
