A streak of sword light struck down condescendingly, passing a distance of more than twenty steps in an instant, and struck in front of the leader of the horse thief!
This fierce thief felt that his eyes were full of redness, and the hot breath rushing towards him made him unable to breathe. All the courage and fighting spirit were sucked away in an instant, and all that was left was the boundless fear of death.
Completely driven by the warrior's instinct, he raised his weapon to block and parry.
But the sword energy fell and cut off the fine iron sword in his hand without any stagnation, splitting his whole body into two halves!
call out!
The sharp sword energy continued to extend forward, and the horse thieves behind had no time to dodge, and were slashed at the same time!
boom!
Mud and gravel mixed with flesh and blood fragments sprayed all over the sky, and a deep ravine was plowed out of the hillside. It was the mark left by the sword energy, which clearly showed the terrifying power contained in Qin Yun's sword!
The other horse thieves who were lucky enough to escape all stopped and their faces were as pale as paper. In particular, one horse thief who was passed by by the sword energy had his legs trembling and his crotch quickly became wet.
Their courage to fight to the death was gone under this sword, and they turned around and ran away without knowing who had started it!
"Everyone, run for your lives!"
The collapse of the Horse Thief Group was as fast and violent as an avalanche. When the first person started running, only a few people recovered and followed, but then it affected the entire group in the blink of an eye.
The group is leaderless, three leaders have died in the battle, and Qin Yun has promised to kill without mercy. As long as those who don't want to die, there is no chance to continue fighting.
They howled and ran in all directions. More people went back to snatch the horses. Some blocked the way of their companions because they were running slowly. As a result, they were chopped down to the ground and trampled on by their companions without hesitation. The scene was horrific.
The guards of Linji Trading Company and the warriors of the Mu family immediately launched a pursuit. Many of their partners and brothers died in the hands of the enemy, so they naturally hated the horse thieves.
There were also some horse thieves who could not escape and turned around in despair and tried their best, but under the siege of the wolf-like and tiger-like guard warriors, their resistance quickly disappeared like small waves in the sea.
The subsequent battle lasted for less than half an hour before it ended. In the end, only a few horse thieves snatched the horses and fled deep into the plains under the cover of the vast night. From then on, they were never seen again on this land.
After the battle that broke out in an abandoned mountain village, Lin Ji's caravan escorting warriors counted afterward, it was found that the White Snake Horse Thief Group left a total of more than 300 corpses. Many horse thieves were also captured, and only the captured war horses
More than four hundred horses, the results are absolutely remarkable!
After this defeat, the White Snake's force, one of the four major bandits in Yanyun, was severely damaged. In addition, other forces took the opportunity to seize the territory with their own hands, which eventually led to the disappearance of the force.
As a result, the reputation of Linji Trading Company was greatly enhanced, and later it was almost unimpeded in the southern area of Yanyun.
Of course, the biggest credit goes to Qin Yun. If he hadn't stopped White Snake from returning to the Horse Thieves to command the battle, and returned to aid at the most critical moment, I am afraid that the caravan guards and Mu family warriors in the small village would
To annihilate the entire army.
That's true. After a bloody battle to the death, more than half of the caravan guards and Mu family warriors were killed or injured. The caravan also lost a lot of goods, but with the capture of the war horses, it was able to make up for it all.
In Yanyun Prefecture and other places, a good war horse can be sold for tens or even hundreds of taels of silver. A large part of the wealth of the White Snake Horse Thief Group is reflected in these horses. The horse thieves abandon their horses in order to invade small villages.
The result is that the winner gets the advantage in vain.
Lao Lang was extremely grateful for Qin Yun's help and wanted to give most of the captured items to Qin Yun.
But Qin Yun did not accept it directly, but made his own suggestion: "Old Lang, you sell these war horses that belong to me, and all the money will be equally distributed to the families of those who died in today's war as additional compensation!"
Qin Yun was not short of money. He could get enough money to live comfortably for a few years with a piece of Fire Spirit Jade. But when he saw the familiar faces lying on the ground, he felt a touch of sadness in his heart.
There was a guard who was stabbed in the chest by a horse thief with a sword. Qin Yun remembered that on the road, he curiously asked him for martial arts skills. He had an extremely open-minded and cheerful personality. He often said that the first thing to do after saving enough money was to accept
I went to live in the city.
It's just that his wish will never be realized in person.
The old wolf's expression suddenly changed, and there was a hint of moisture in the eyes of this tough old man.
These guards under him belong to the trading company, and their salaries are usually quite generous. If they die in battle for the trading company, they will receive corresponding pensions, but the money is limited after all.
Qin Yun took out the money from selling the war horses, and the families of those who died in the war could get at least a thousand taels. The savings would be enough to support the whole family for decades, and their lives would not be in trouble because of the loss of the mainstay.
He bowed deeply to Qin Yun, patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will never let these brothers who died in the battle suffer any loss. As long as I am still alive, I will take care of their families."
Until death!"
"That's right! So do we!" The other guard warriors also said.
Hot-blooded men in the world, these men who wander around and live a life of licking the blood of their wives. Most of them come from poor backgrounds and are not born with the conditions that the children of aristocratic families have, but many of them have qualities that are difficult for the latter to match.
Bravery, loyalty, loyalty!
This scene made Mu Fei, who was standing aside, feel his blood surge and his handsome face turn red.
He suddenly stepped forward, bowed to Qin Yun and said: "Brother Qin is so righteous and my younger brother admires me so much. I have the audacity to ask if I can become brothers with different surnames. We cannot be born in the same year and the same month on the same day, but I hope to die in the same year, the same month and the same day."
!”
Become opposite-sex brothers?
His request was so abrupt that Qin Yun couldn't help but be stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Speaking of which, the origin of this young master Mu Fei is unknown. The two of them just met on the side of each other without any deep friendship. It stands to reason that they can become friends, but they are definitely not brothers.
It's just that the way Qin Yun looked at the other party was pure and flawless, without any scheming, but only the fervent excitement of admiration. It was obviously not the result of careful consideration, but a momentary impulse.
Because of this, Qin Yun felt that if he refused, this young man, who was more beautiful than many women, would be really sad and couldn't bear it.
The big man with a beard named Mo Hu said in surprise: "Young Master, you are...".
From the look on his face, it was obvious that he was very reluctant to have his young master marry Qin Yun, and was trying to dissuade him.
But Mu Fei's attitude was very firm, he waved his hand and said, "I have decided!"
He saluted again: "Brother Qin, please agree!"
Qin Yun was a little dumbfounded, but the experienced old man smiled and said: "Brother Qin, I think this is a good thing! This young master Mu Fei is a handsome gentleman, and he will definitely be an extraordinary person in the future. You two
They are both extremely talented young people. It would be a great story if we could become brothers!"
"Actually, I also want to join in the fun, but compared to the two of you, I am really too old!"
Everyone laughed, and the original serious and solemn atmosphere was diluted a lot.
Having said that, it would be too unkind to refuse any more. Qin Yun thought about how it would be okay to become brothers, so he nodded and said, "That's good!"
"Great!" Mu Fei suddenly burst into joy and cheered, pulling Qin Yun's sleeve and saying, "Then we, we will be brothers now!"
But he didn't know what to do, so he turned to the old wolf for help.
The old wolf was very considerate and immediately ordered his men to guard Zhang Luo. Because it was simple and simple, it was ready very quickly.
Lao Lang served as a witness. Under his auspices, Qin Yun and Mu Fei worshiped heaven and earth three times and drank horse blood wine together.
They were supposed to exchange name cards, but Lao Lang ignored them intentionally or unintentionally.
After the ceremony, Mu Fei was excited and happy. He couldn't help hugging Qin Yun and said, "Brother!"
Qin Yun felt that the other person's body was very soft and seemed to have a faint fragrance. He thought that his foster brother was a little more rosy, so he patted his back and said, "Second brother!"
Loosening his arms, Mu Fei took the long sword held by the maid and offered it to Qin Yun with both hands: "Brother, as the saying goes, pink is given to beauties and swords are given to heroes. This Wentian Sword is a sword passed down from my family. It belongs to my younger brother.
Please accept the gift of sworn friendship!"
"Young Master, this..."
Mo Hu next to him suddenly became anxious, but was immediately glared hard by Mu Fei, and could only lower his head in anger.
"Since it is a sword inherited from your family, how can I accept it?" Qin Yun shook his head and said: "Second brother, you should keep it for self-defense. I have suitable weapons myself."
Mu Fei smiled bitterly and said: "Big brother doesn't know. This Wentian Sword can't exert even one or two points of power in my hand. Keeping it is a waste of resources, and I may not be able to keep it. Only a hero like big brother can do it."
Only the characters deserve it!”
"So please accept it!"
Qin Yun did remember that when the White Snake first appeared, she asked for this sword by name. She must have had an extraordinary origin.
Mu Fei gave the sword to himself, probably to avoid disaster. As the saying goes, it is a crime for a common man to have a treasure in his possession. If he does not have the ability to protect the treasure, leaving it in his hand will also be the source of disaster.
He thought for a while, reached out and took off the ice bead necklace that had been hanging close to his body, and then took out the cold dagger and handed it to the other party: "This necklace is for you. The ice bead on it is
It is very beneficial for practicing water-based exercises, and it is said that wearing it with you can keep you young forever."
"As for this dagger, I confiscated it from the White Snake and left it for you to use for self-defense!" (To be continued) rq
