Turning around suddenly, Chu An noticed something unusual as soon as these masked men climbed over the courtyard wall.
But unfortunately, the people who came were not weak, so when he held the handle of the knife, two long knives were already placed on his and Qin He's necks.
"Shut up!"
A masked man pressed the blade and shouted viciously: "If you dare to scream again, I will have your heads moved immediately!"
"..."
Faced with the sudden change, Qin He was already frightened and just froze in place motionless.
After all, Chu An was a man, and with his experience as an errand in the palace, he quickly recovered from his shock, took a deep breath and asked slowly:
"Brothers, I shouldn't have any grudges against you, right?"
"Fuck! What nonsense!"
The internal energy surged instantly, and the masked man showed no mercy. He cursed and punched Chu An in the abdomen.
"boom!"
Amid the dull sound, the latter's eyes suddenly widened, and severe pain spread all over his body in an instant, making him unable to stand upright anymore, and veins bulged on his forehead.
Although Chu An is at the sixth level, the man in black who punched is also at the sixth level. In a normal fight, the latter would most likely not be his opponent.
But since Qin He was still there, Chu An didn't want to anger the gangster, so he could only bear the punch.
"call......"
I took several deep breaths in succession, and my back was soaked with cold sweat.
Under the severe pain, Chu An could not say anything for the time being, but his body was hunched over and shaking.
And when his appearance fell into Qin He's eyes, the latter finally recovered from his panic.
"No, don't hit him!!"
Ignoring the long knife across his neck, Qin He suddenly opened his arms to block Chu An, and asked the masked men tremblingly:
"You, what are you going to do?!"
"It's so fucking noisy!"
The leading masked man cursed again impatiently, and several other people around him immediately stepped forward and kicked Qin He down.
"Plop!"
The figure hit the ground hard, and her long skirt was covered with mud.
Qin He had never practiced, so even though these masked men didn't use much strength, she couldn't withstand this kick. At this time, she had already vomited out a mouthful of blood.
Blood smeared across the corner of his mouth, dripping onto his clothes, and soon spread into a large area of dazzling red.
"Qin'er!!!"
Chu An's eyes turned red in an instant, and he was ready to draw his sword desperately the next second.
However, before his hand could touch the handle of the knife, a masked man sneered and slapped him in the face.
"Snapped!"
A crisp sound echoed in the night sky, and Chu An's body stumbled suddenly.
And when he raised his head again, the bright long knife was pressed against his chest again.
"Tie them inside."
With a cold snort, the leading masked man waved his hands as if to ward off mosquitoes. After giving an order, he glanced at Chu An with disdain:
"Humph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
"..."
...
After a stick of incense.
The small house that was so cozy just now was as cold as an ice cave, and even a few candlelights seemed to have become eerie.
Chu An and Qin He collapsed in the corner covered in blood. Their hands and feet were tied, and they could only watch helplessly as a few masked men rummaged through the room.
Not long after, some scattered silver coins and Qin He's jewelry were found and all were handed over to the leading masked man.
"Boss, I've searched everything."
A thin masked man whispered: "There are only so many in total."
"Fuck! How much is this?!"
The leader's masked man's eyes became more and more ferocious. He threw the broken silver jewelry to his subordinates and slowly walked to Chu An.
"Where is the money hidden at home?"
Looking down, the masked man said coldly: "I advise you to speak out, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel."
"..."
Looking at the masked man with cold eyes, Chu An did not speak immediately.
Because he doesn't think these people are really here to steal money.
The leader is at the lowest level of the sixth level. The rest of the people have not taken action, so it is impossible to judge, but it seems that they should also be the sixth level.
You must know that although the sixth grade is not strong, it is still the third grade. If you work in the yamen, you will at least be a hundred households.
Even if a person with such strength is robbing, he should still rob those big and wealthy businessmen, so why would he target a powerless himself?
Chu An was not stupid, so he already understood that these people's robbery was fake and there must be some other purpose behind it.
And the best thing he can do right now is not to expose this matter...
"This house is not my long-term residence, and I don't put much money or belongings in it."
Taking a gentle breath, Chu An stared at the masked man and answered word by word:
"If you want money, you can follow me to another place to get it."
"I promise I won't resist."
"..."
The candlelight flickered and the atmosphere was tense.
Looking at Chu An, who was still calm, the masked man sneered and said sarcastically:
"You can pick it up somewhere else?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Haha, just a little less, even if I am unlucky this time..."
Turning to look at Qin He who had passed out, the masked man smiled lewdly and said, "But this little lady is pretty, I think I'll use her as a counterweight."
"you dare!!"
Suddenly his eyes widened, and the calmness on Chu An's face disappeared in an instant.
He struggled wildly in an attempt to break free, and the anger in his eyes seemed to burn the masked man into ashes.
However, the latter didn't care about his reaction, and even licked his lips more and more excitedly.
"Don't waste your efforts."
"I'm sure I'll let you live if I'm having fun. This is a good deal for you."
"Boy, you can't blame me for this. If you want to blame it, blame yourself for being too weak."
"If you were stronger, wouldn't you not have to suffer like this?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"..."
After laughing a few times, the masked man stopped looking at Chu An, picked up Qin He and walked towards the inner room.
When the other gangsters saw this scene, they all showed a trace of obscenity.
They glanced at Chu An and said with a sinister smile:
"It's her blessing that our eldest brother likes that girl."
"I'm not sure that the little lady will be willing to follow my elder brother after tonight."
"Who made you such a waste...ugh!"
The insult-filled sarcasm suddenly stopped at a certain moment, and as a few candlelights in the room suddenly went out, the entire room fell into a chilling darkness.
And in this darkness, a figure slowly stood up.
"boom!"
The hemp rope burst and his eyes were blood red.
Chu An, whose temperament changed drastically, walked step by step in front of the masked men with wide eyes and unable to move, and then slowly raised his hand.
"Bang! Bang bang bang!!"
Like exploding fireworks, the bodies of several masked men suddenly exploded, and blood exploded like mist, almost dyeing the entire room red.
But Chu An, who killed several people with just a wave of his hand, turned a blind eye to all this. He just walked slowly outside the wooden door and then opened the door suddenly.
