Chapter 7: The Luck of Escaping Robbery
The second-in-command looked at the indifferent gaze of the man in white, feeling a chill run through his body. He could not understand how their stronghold had provoked this god of death, who had come charging in without a word and even inexplicably demanded that they hand over some goods
After the three left, a figure in white appeared not far away, looking disdainfully at their backs and shaking its head: "Is a useless person really worth my surprise and suspicion? It seems I have overthought this!"
The man in white evaded Chen Jiu's hand, then smiled faintly, his smile carrying a hint of sarcasm: "Unaware of the heights of heaven and the depths of the earth!"
Although this man's speed is not fast, no one can escape from him
After speaking, a surge of energy propelled Chen Jiu away, and the man in white calmly walked down the mountain
The man in white revealed a cold glint in his eyes: "Since the treasures are all gathered, you may as well die!"
If we were to walk up the mountain now, shouting slogans about teaching these bandits a lesson, pretending to be an ignorant rich young man, we might just be able to deceive that man in white.
The stout man nodded, stood up, while Chen Zhong quietly extinguished the fire
After the man in white left, Chen Jiu, not far away, let out a slight sigh of relief. Although he had not yet cultivated any combat power through the laws of nature, he was exceptionally sensitive to the fluctuations of energy. The man in white had been following closely behind several individuals. While Chen Zhong and the fat man were unaware, Chen Jiu felt it quite clearly.
Without any explanation, Chen Jiu looked at Er and the librarian: "From now on, both of you must do as I say, otherwise we will all be finished"
As the two were continuously arguing, a figure clad in pure white approached from a distance. Chen Jiu's eyes lit up, and he hurried over: "Hey, you actually managed to return alive from Qinglong Village, that's truly remarkable. But rest assured, I, the young master, have come to eradicate Qinglong Village. From now on, this place will be nothing but history"
Under the motivation of death, the efficiency of everyone was a hundredfold, a thousandfold compared to usual, and soon, a mountain of wealth was piled up in front of the man in white.
After Chen Jiu finished speaking, he placed the roasted chicken wrapped in clay into the charcoal fire. Chen Zhong said little more; judging from the martial prowess displayed by the earlier man in white, it was clear that these ordinary people could not possibly contend with him. Chen Jiu must certainly possess secrets unknown to others.
After silently eating a few, Chen Jiu suddenly stood up and clapped his hands: "Let us set off!"
At this moment, Qinglong Village no longer enjoys the tranquility of the past, nor the festive atmosphere of the New Year, for a god of death has arrived at the stronghold.
The third master seemed to recall something, his eyes suddenly widening: "Second brother, I understand now!"
A flash of white light flickered, and streams of blood splattered, melting the snow on the ground
The fat man looked at Chen Jiu, who was actually returning along the same path, and couldn't help but shout loudly, as if he thought Chen Jiu was disoriented and needed to be reminded.
"Are you not going to reveal the whereabouts of that batch of goods?" The voice of the man in white was not loud, yet everyone present could hear it clearly
Gently wiping his soft sword, the man in white casually tossed aside the silk scarf, and there were already over a hundred corpses around him
The man in white said nothing, but gently blew the blood off the sword, sheathed it, and closed his eyes, remaining motionless.
After speaking, the three continued to ascend the mountain
Chen Jiu cast a sidelong glance at the fat man, then surveyed the surroundings before lowering his voice to say: "If we go any further outside, we will only have a dead end!"
As he gazed at the blazing fire engulfing the stronghold, Chen Jiu squinted slightly and said, "What is going on? Why is there not a single bandit in this stronghold? Let's go in and take a look"
Chen Jiu and the Fatty are debating whether being fat is better or being thinner is preferable. To be honest, Chen Jiu looks down on the Fatty for being overweight, while the Fatty also despises Chen Jiu for being as thin as a chicken rib
The man in white turned his gaze and said: "Since you already know, why not speak up?"
The entire stronghold is continuously being set ablaze, and the extremely vicious and notorious bandit who brought calamity to the region has thus become a part of history
The stout man gazed at the departing figure in white, his eyes serious: "There is a murderous intent!"
The man in white opened his eyes, glanced at the accountant in front of him, gently kicked a few times to scatter the papers, and after a brief look, said: "Is that all?"
As the snowflakes drifted down, a splash of blood also erupted alongside the books, hot blood gushing forth once more. A mountain bandit lay dead on the ground, his eyes wide open, having not even realized how he had met his end
Looking at the bodies scattered on the ground, the man in white sighed softly: "What a pity, many bandits have escaped, and they will continue to do evil in the future. It is a shame that we cannot eradicate all evil!"
The second-in-command said softly: "The finances have already been consolidated!"
After watching the man in white transform into a white rainbow and disappear, the stout man's eyes moved slightly. He did not speak, but fixed his gaze on Chen Jiu
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, Chen Jiu's body went limp, and a scream echoed into the distance: "It's so terrifying, let's go home quickly, this young master will never come here again!"
Chen Jiu is correct; further down the mountain leads to a dead end. The speed of oneself and the others is certainly no match for that man. It is believed that before the three of them can exit the boundaries of Qinglong Village, they will be caught up by that man.
After speaking, the man in white completely departed
Hurry, tell everyone to gather the goods!" The second-in-command spoke urgently to the third-in-command.
It is a pity that although the man in white is formidable, he still allowed many ruthless individuals to escape. After all, it is not easy to kill several thousand people.
The three individuals entered as if they were a bunch of naive newcomers
The second in command and the third in command were sweating on their foreheads: "Is there anyone among you who has been hiding it!"
Everyone shook their heads in unison, and the second-in-command turned his head and said: "These are the ones!"
On this mountain road during the New Year, there are people appearing in the *illustrated* books, and they are near the village, which looks suspicious from every angle. If they were to head down the mountain, it would instead make them seem guilty.
We have returned the treasure to you, how do you...
The man in white looked at the second-in-command with a hint of mockery: "You ruthless and vicious individuals, this treasure carries a taint of filth after being touched by you. How can you atone for your sins without washing away this foul aura with your blood?"
The man in white flashed a glance and said, "Have you divided that batch of goods?"
Chen Jiu's fingers trembled slightly, and then he laughed heartily: "Do not fear, today we shall completely eradicate the Qinglong Stronghold from existence, follow me up the mountain!"
After speaking, the man in white could not be bothered to search through the bandits' houses. He directly formed a spell, and the long sword trembled slightly: "Fire!"
After speaking, the long sword vanished, and in the next moment, it reappeared at the right side, while a line of blood appeared on the second-in-command's neck
Looking at the gaze of the second-in-command, the voice of the third-in-command trembled slightly: "We have been schemed against by the boss; the batch of goods we divided yesterday..."
After speaking, he hurriedly rolled and crawled down the mountain, while Chen Zhong and the fat man followed closely behind with serious expressions.
A single sword strike can seal the throat, showing no mercy; the sharpness of the blade is so thin that it can even be compared to an ordinary piece of paper
Three people fell into a moment of silence. After a while, Chen Jiu's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he were constantly pondering something.
The voice is colder than the howling north wind
The head of the household's eyes widened: "Are you saying ... ... "
The food was ready, yet everyone faced with the deliciousness had no appetite, hastily eating a few bites before quietly falling asleep
Since the establishment of Qinglongzhai, the number of goods plundered is undoubtedly countless; only heaven knows which occasion he is referring to
After speaking, Chen Jiu leisurely made his way up the mountain, appearing much like a wealthy young master on a leisurely outing in the wilderness
The fat man slowly opened his eyes, and Chen Qi had already prepared breakfast, with wild fruits picked from somewhere.
Thinking of that sword that cleaved the giant rock, Chen Jiu felt a chill throughout his body
Indeed, no wonder the leader was unwilling to share the goods at all; it turns out he had long known that this killing god was coming. Therefore, he was not trying to break through, but had already fled! At this point, the leader angrily struck his own arm.
The man in white strolled leisurely around the second-in-command, making his way towards the surrounding bandits, leaving a trail of bodies on the ground.
The second-in-command nodded timidly.
A flash of fluorescence passed through Chen Zhong's eyes: "There is a strong smell of blood, it is quite intense; it is likely that thousands have died to produce such a murderous aura"
Looking at the Qinglong Stronghold, the man in white smiled gently: "It seems to have developed a certain atmosphere; it is likely that in a few years, this Qinglong Stronghold will become a tyrant in the region. What a pity, for it should not have offended our immortal path"
Hey, hey, hey, how are you going back the way you came!
As the sun rises and the moon sets, the golden crow chases the jade rabbit; with the moon setting and the sun rising, a series of clear and melodious bird calls awakens the three individuals
