Lu Jing's words instantly brought the originally peaceful atmosphere to freezing point.
The expressions on many people's faces were frozen there, including Huang Ya.
He subconsciously asked again, "What do you want, young hero?"
"Each person has an arm and a leg."
"Young hero, are you kidding me?" Sweat broke out on Huang Ya's forehead.
"No." Lu Jing shook his head.
"With one arm and one leg, you might as well just kill us. Without our limbs, we would rather be alive than dead! Boss Fang, we are afraid of what he will do, so we guys will copy him and fight with him!"
Some Jiang bandits couldn't bear it any longer and shouted.
And his words were supported by many colleagues.
"No matter how hard you fight, don't scream nonsense!" Huang Ya was startled and quickly waved his hand to stop those men who were about to make a move.
He knew that the strength gap between the two sides was too big, and now was not the time to act arrogant.
After yelling at the people below, he turned to Lu Jing and smiled apologetically.
"Young hero, this... this is a bit too much. We still have to keep our hands and feet for fishing. Do you think this would be okay? Although we are poor, we can still find ways to make some money. Come with the money and let us go back..."
"I don't want money."
When Huang Ya heard this, he felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet.
No need to ask any more questions, Lu Jingwang's cold eyes said everything.
Huangya was completely desperate.
He seemed to be unable to bear it, so he took a few steps back, but suddenly bent down and grabbed the steel knife that had fallen to the ground.
Throw it at Lu Jing with all your strength!
At the same time, he shouted, "Zhahu!"
After hearing his order, the river bandits did not look for the two small boats they came in. Instead, they each chose a direction and wanted to plunge into the river.
This group of people obviously knew that it was impossible for all of them to escape today, so they adopted this method of escaping in a hurry.
It all depends on luck, and those who get caught can only consider themselves unlucky!
No matter what, it's better than letting everyone eat it all.
At this time, only a few can escape.
This is what Huangya thought in his heart.
Of course, he knew that he would most likely become the primary target, so he was always trembling with fear when he ran away. However, he miraculously escaped being caught until he ran to the side of the ship.
Looking at the river in front of him, Huang Ya couldn't help but be very excited.
With just one step, and one more step, he could escape and ascend to heaven.
But just when he wanted to take this crucial step towards freedom, the figure that frightened him appeared in front of him again.
This feeling of falling from heaven to hell in an instant made Huang Ya feel particularly bad!
However, he gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to pull out the water-splitting spur tied to his calf and stab it towards Lu Jing!
It's a pity that his risking his life in the face of a powerful opponent only further highlighted his inner despair.
Lu Jing reached out and gently touched the top of his head, similar to the time he patted his shoulder before.
But the next moment Huangya heard the sound of his skull breaking.
At the last moment of his life, he turned around to see how many of his brothers had escaped, but he only saw a deck of corpses.
Including him, there were eight people in total, not one was missing.
A look of astonishment appeared in Huang Ya's eyes. He couldn't figure out how Lu Jing could kill all of them in such a short period of time.
Then, with this doubt, he softened and lay on the bow of the boat, no longer moving.
Lu Jing didn't say anything after killing eight people in a row. He touched the corpses according to player tradition, then threw a tael of silver to the boatman for cleaning expenses, and then returned to the room without saying anything.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared that everyone in the cabin, who was shocked and speechless by the scene just now, came to their senses.
The old lady snorted heavily, seemingly dissatisfied, and said with a sullen face, "I don't feel well." With the help of the two maids, she got up and went back to the room.
The three scholars looked at each other, looking a little embarrassed.
After a while, one of them said, "Young Master Lu... hates evil as much as he hates it, but he is also somewhat unkind."
"That's true." Another person nodded in agreement, "The world is like this, and those Jiang bandits can't help themselves. And it doesn't matter if we kill them, how can their wives, children, and mothers survive?"
"That makes sense, but I heard that Lu Shaoxia acted so fiercely in his early years. Maybe it's because he didn't read enough books about sages. If someone could tell him the truth about recommending oneself to others, he would probably let those people go. The gangster has a way out."
As soon as the third scholar finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter.
There was obviously a lot of sarcasm in that laughter.
The scholar looked up angrily, only to find that the person laughing at him was actually a girl.
She is the youngest among the group of female relatives on the ship. She only looks like fourteen or fifteen years old. She has not yet fully grown, but she can already be seen as a beauty, with jade-like skin, red lips, white teeth, and the natural appearance of a young lady from an official family. The elegant and tranquil temperament.
It's a pity that this temperament was completely ruined by those eyes that like to move around.
Hearing her sneer, the lady beside her immediately stopped her and apologized to the three scholars on her behalf.
However, the girl was quite disapproving of it, and still glanced at the group of scholars with a "you are all pigs" look.
One of them couldn't bear the sight of her and said, "Please tell me, girl, why were you laughing just now?"
"Because I saw something funny." The girl said with a smile, regardless of her mother's gaze.
"What's so funny?" Another scholar couldn't help but ask.
"The three idiots who had just been rescued not only didn't know how to be grateful, but also talked about the virtues of their benefactors behind their backs. No wonder in the stories of the storytellers in the tea house, none of the scholars were good people, and the rescue was in vain. .”
She said these words in the casual tone unique to a girl.
But every word is like a sharp knife, piercing the hearts of the scholars mercilessly.
The faces of the three people who just spoke were burning, and they even felt ashamed.
"What a sharp-tongued girl!"
A scholar calmed down for a moment, probably because he was out of breath and continued.
"We really shouldn't talk about Lu Shaoxia's character behind his back. Moreover, Lu Shaoxia's character is well known to everyone in Wujiang City and cannot be slandered.
"But let's talk about the matter, what we just said is not bad, right? Kindness and tolerance are things that the saints also vigorously advocate and implement." The scholar said angrily.
"It is good that the saints advocate kindness and tolerance, but that is for people, not for poisonous snakes." The girl sneered.
"Did you really believe what those gangsters said and think it was their first time doing this kind of business?"
The scholars' momentum weakened a bit after hearing this, but some others retorted.
"How do you know they are telling lies?"
"Haha." The girl didn't answer. She just stood up from her position and walked directly to the deck outside. She didn't change her expression when facing the corpses on the ground.
He picked up the knife that Huangya had dropped on the ground and dragged it to the three scholars.
"See for yourself."
