Just as the donkey cart was about to pass through the stone arch, a dozen bandits holding hunting bows suddenly sprang out from the highlands on both sides of the hill. They drew their bows and pointed arrows at the three people on the donkey cart.
A strong man wearing a leather helmet and iron-trimmed armor walked down the hill carrying a blood-stained double-edged axe. He looked at the fat sheep that came to the door as if he were looking at goods, and his eyes lit up.
"I'm so lucky to have come across such a good product. Since it hit my hand, if I don't eat it, I would be sorry for the guillotine in my hand!
If you don’t want to suffer, just put down your weapons and be captured, otherwise when my men capture you, don’t blame those beasts for being unkind!”
In response to the bandit leader's voice, the bandits laughed maliciously.
"Yes! Just obey! If good products like yours are damaged, they won't be sold at a good price. Obediently, we can't bear to damage you. When the time comes, you will be clean and pure. With the parliament,
Isn’t it better for the gentlemen to enjoy the hot food and drink spicy food than to drive the donkey cart yourself and work hard?”
"Boss Kailo! I want that handsome guy!"
"That white-haired woman is my favorite. Look at her cold eyes. I wonder if she will have the same expression when I pry open her mouth. I told you in advance that I am attracted to this white-haired woman.
, no one can rob me!"
"Frank, you're nothing! It's no one's turn for you, a weakling, a loser!"
"Leonard, do you want to die?"
As they talked, the bandits started to quarrel in a tense manner. The three people on the donkey cart just stayed where they were as if they were frightened, listening to the curses of more than a dozen bandits.
"That's enough! I have the final say on how to divide it! If anyone starts fighting among themselves before arresting these three fat sheep, don't blame me for being rude!
One last time! Get off the donkey cart! Don’t let me see you doing any little tricks!”
The situation improved a lot after the bandit named Kailuo made a sound to scare him. At least everyone's thoughts were put back on the donkey cart again.
What surprised the bandits was that the two women and one man on the donkey cart did not seem to show any fear, which made Kailuo feel embarrassed.
"I'll give you the last ten seconds..."
"This is already the sixth batch, right? I've known for a long time that the security in Zhiyun Province is very poor, but I didn't expect it to be so bad that it was robbed three times over two hills. Can this product still be sold?
"
Seeing that the bandit didn't take him seriously, Lester sighed,
"Lu, do it, keep the leader and kill the others."
Akali was also a little helpless. She held an iron dagger in her right hand and took out three kunai with her left hand.
"I never thought that I would kill more people on a trip than I have spoken to."
Kailo's face darkened.
"I think you are looking for death! Take them down! Don't hurt those two women!"
Two minutes later, there were already thirteen more corpses on the ground. Lester's leather boots stepped on the chest of the bandit leader Kailo. The man with a gentle face pressed his fingers into the bandit leader's wound twice, without hesitation.
He was concerned that his leather boots were stained with blood. If he, a businessman, could remain clean and decent in such a chaotic environment, that would be the most questionable thing.
"You're asking! I'll tell you everything! Stop torturing me! Give me a good time!"
The tearful bandit leader banged the back of his head on the grass, wishing he could kill himself.
"I thought you were going to be a tough guy without saying a word."
Lester took out his fingers and wiped them on Kailo's linen lining.
"Tell me about yourself, how did you fall into the trap of someone else?"
After the severe pain subsided a little, Kailo gritted his teeth and whispered with red eyes.
"What else can I do? It's not because I can't live any longer!
I thought that after the people of the Kinkou Sect caught the Golden Demon, we wouldn’t have to worry and we could live a good life for a few days. However, various taxes in the village are increasing.
One moment he said that he would form a militia regiment to guard the villages and impose militia taxes, and the next moment he said that the Noxians were coming and they would force a militia regiment to protect the country.
A few days later, the village chief, Senior, said that he had negotiated with the Noxians. All the Zhiyun people had to pay compensation to the Noxians. Once the militia came, even farm laborers with nothing could be spared. This was enough to bring down the farmers.
exorbitant taxes,
Those who had money were given money, and those who had no money were given food and cloth to make up for it. Those who had nothing could only watch Nina being taken away by Senior's thugs.
That bastard Senior said he wanted Nina to work as a maid for a period of time and then let her out after paying the taxes. A month later, the village chief Senior told me that Nina had stolen the money and escaped. As a result, Nina was still alive.
No one was dead and no corpses were seen. Not only did I not pay back the money, but I also owed a debt to the village. Nina was gone and the wooden house I built was demolished.
In desperation, I almost starved to death and was sold by the village chief to a black coal mine in the mountains to pay off my debts.
I got to know a lot of people in the black coal mines, and most of them were poor souls who were forced to have no other way out. We who did heavy hard work could only eat two meals of porridge a day, and roasted with coarse salt once a week.
Some people have tried to resist the dried rat meat. If you can't even swing a pickaxe a few times, how can you possibly beat those bastards who guard the coal mine?
Those who resisted died, but the living had to continue to grind their teeth and suffer. The days went on like this day by day, and miasma was unavoidable in the mine. The black-hearted foreman who was reluctant to use wood to reinforce the mine tunnel watched helplessly as the miners were swallowed up by the landslide.
There were fewer and fewer familiar faces and more and more unfamiliar faces, until that night, a group of bandits who were supposed to be wiped out by the militia attacked the black coal mine and saved us poor bastards.
That night when we had the broth, all the miners chose a different path, we put down our hoes and pickaxes, picked up our swords, and started looting the village.”
Having said this, Kailo gritted his teeth and showed unforgettable hatred on his face.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The first thing I did was to lead my brothers back to the village. After fighting a few battles, we successfully killed the useless people raised by the village chief with farmers' money.
Corps, those cowards who only dared to bully villagers and farmers quickly told me the truth,
Not just Nina, those men who sold their wives and girls because they had no money to pay taxes did not end well. Most of them were sent to black mines like me. All the women were sold to traffickers by the village chief, Senior
The Slave Bandit Group, the Women's Association, the Slave Bandit Group once again selected some beautiful and healthy women to serve the big shots in Zhiyun Province. The people who destroyed our family were never the Noxus they mentioned!
I began to track down Nina's whereabouts, and all I found was a corpse.
Knowing all this, I quickly made the Senior family pay the due price. I was wanted by the Zhiyun Council for committing the bestiality. In desperation, I could only bring my villagers who were willing to follow me.
People fled to the deep mountains and old forests here to hide their names,
It's hateful to say. Usually when we are bullied, we don't see any martial arts heroes coming to our aid. After we worked so hard to build a stronghold with every plant and tree, the heroes came. When we were forced to the point of desperation, a gang of slave traders and robbers came looking for us.
They fell in love with us and asked us to help them capture good-looking boys and girls. I agreed to their conditions. Since then, the knights have not caused any trouble for us. Later I found out that the Zhiyun Council was canceled after we were complicit in the crime.
The fatwa against us, the slave bandits are basically dogs raised by the members of the Zhiyun Council!
The funny thing is, as a farmer, I would starve to the point of becoming emaciated, but since I turned into a bandit and committed murder, I have become fat and strong. I know that in this world, I am a fucking son of a bitch! No!
Let people live well! I only regret that I knew it too late!"
Riven, who was on guard at the side, listened secretly with a serious expression, while Akali's mood was a little depressed. She had heard many miserable stories along the way, and it seemed that every tragedy was related to the Zhiyun Council and the slave trade.
The gang of robbers has something to do with it.
The person in front of her was one of her Ionian compatriots, but his expression was ferocious and crazy, as if he was an evil Shura ghost from hell.
"How much do you know about the slave-trading bandit group? How much do you know about the slave-trading bandit group's connection with the Zhiyun Council?"
Seemingly seeing murderous intent in Lester's eyes, Kailo was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. His body was still bleeding and aching, but Kailo laughed happily as if he had no consciousness.
Facing the crazy-looking man, Akali took two steps back and hid behind Lester with some fear.
"You want to deal with those bastards who will be cut to pieces, right? I can see the killing intention in your eyes. You are different from us pitiful and hateful bugs. You are not the Zhiyun Council.
people will not become members of the Zhiyun Council!
I have seen the same look in the eyes of the Kinkou cultists and the masters of the Wuji Sword Sect. At that time, the Golden Demon was raging in the Zhiyun Province, and the northern continent warriors from the Baru'e Province, Shangzan Province, and Navoli Province came together to
Zhiyun Province traces the whereabouts of the Golden Demon,
The eyes of those warriors are exactly the same as yours, with only the purest hatred for sin and injustice in the world! Looking back now, the days when the Northern Continent warriors were recruited because of the raging golden demon were actually the best days for security in Zhiyun Province.
Because only foreign compatriots would really treat us poor fellows as compatriots! At that time, there were no messy taxes in the village, not because Senior was kind enough to treat us as human beings, but because foreign warriors dared to hold
Fight those bastards with your sword! Only under the sun will those sinister insects put away their dirty tentacles in fear!
I don’t know the information about the slave bandits and the Zhiyun Council. Those secrets are not something that a little bandit leader like me can know, but I know a force that has a clear relationship with the slave bandits. I know where they are. If you
If you want to know about the slave bandits, you can go to them and let them see how terrifying your eyes are."
Lester silently moved his feet away from Kailuo. Kailuo grinned, stood up and spit out bloody phlegm, hunched over and pointed to a mountain col in the northeast, quite reveling in his misfortune.
"Climb three mountains in this direction, and you will see an open-air hot spring. You can find an uneven stone forest at the mountain col to the north of the open-air hot spring. Follow the slope of the stone forest all the way down to the valley, where the sun cannot shine.
There is a cave in the place, and all the nearby bandits who are connected with the slave bandits will send their captured slaves to that place for secondary adjustment and education.
If I guessed correctly, that stone forest cave probably has a secret passage at the bottom of the mountain that leads to the eastern foot of the Fishbone Mountains. As long as you pass through the secret passage at the bottom of the mountain, you can cross the Fishbone Mountains and reach the eastern continent of Zhiyun Province.
It’s a pity that I have never had the opportunity to visit Kashuli. There is a saying that the top slaves will be sold to the brothels in Kashuli, which is a place that even my wife is not qualified to go to.”
Kailo picked up the dagger on the ground and looked toward the east with hatred in his eyes. Facing the direction of the rising sun, the man stabbed the dagger into his abdomen.
"I'll wait for you on Huangquan Road."
…
In the forest, four preys with their mouths stuffed with patterned tablecloths and their bodies tied to the tree trunks let out the muffled groans of pigs before they died. Five hundred meters away, a tall and thin man completed his exquisite and elegant dance.
He knelt on one knee devoutly like a believer and set up the cursed gun. The human skin mask covered the man's face, but it could not hide the man's upturned happy smile.
"Bang!"
In the low sonic boom sound like a symphony, the woman's head exploded unreasonably, and the flesh and bones sublimated into a crimson mist, covering the faces of middle-aged men, girls and boys wetly and tenderly. Three pictures
The white face full of fear was completely transformed into despair like scarlet bark.
"This bullet, called wonderful, is the opening ceremony of the stage play."
As if to show off his woman to the cold-faced man next to him, the man in the human skin mask pulled the bolt of the gun and gently pushed the second cursed bullet into the barrel.
Pull the trigger.
"Bang!"
The second bullet escaped from the barrel, lighting up the second curse pattern and taking away the boy's life. Just like the first shot, the bullet did not damage the bark of the tree for no reason.
Watching helplessly as the boy's upper body disappeared, the girl showed a dull expression, and the man seemed to have given up struggling and hit the tree trunk with the back of his head like crazy.
"This bullet is called Wonderful, and it is the heavy drumbeat that is about to embark on the wave."
After the bullet was unloaded and loaded, the third bullet grazed the trunk of the tree and took away one-third of the tree rings, bringing the third laughing spectator who had already voluntarily left the scene to the climax. The girl disappeared as if she had evaporated from the world.
"This bullet is called excellence. It is the limit that an artist can reach, but it is not the limit of whispering."
As the fourth bullet was loaded, the masked man's body began to tremble, and he proudly introduced his masterpiece to the warden beside him.
"The last bullet is called Extraordinary. The curtain call is not the end, it is just for a gorgeous performance to enter the temple of God! Look, the audience can't wait to witness the realm of God!"
Seeing his family die in front of his eyes, the heartbroken man no longer banged his head against the tree. He just tried to open his tearful eyes wide and tried to curse the devil in the distance with the most vicious eyes. Unfortunately, the man could not see it at all.
I don't know where the devil is, let alone a curse.
