Chapter 84 You shouldn’t use knives in your own home
The man who opened the door froze, and after a while he smiled dryly and said, "Brother, you really know how to joke."
"You are wrong." The old Taoist priest interrupted the lock picker again, "Old Taoist, I never joke with people I don't know."
The old Taoist priest's words made the unlocking man even more angry. He stopped kneeling and got up from the ground using his hands and feet. He pointed at the old Taoist priest and started to curse.
"You still have the nerve to claim to be a Taoist priest, but I think you are a devil!"
The old Taoist priest nodded, "You are right."
"..."
The lockpicking man was stunned again.
The old Taoist priest always doesn't play his cards according to the routine, which makes the lock picker even want to scold him.
The old Taoist priest became a little impatient, "Should you do it yourself, or should I help you? Taoist, I'm busy and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here."
"I——"
The lock-picking man said just one word before he was interrupted again.
The person who spoke this time was one of the men lying on the ground.
He turned over and sat up, looking at the old Taoist priest hopefully, "Taoist Priest, I didn't open the door, nor was I the one who came here. I only followed because of threats. Can you let me go?"
Without waiting for the old Taoist priest to answer, he then said, "Taoist Master, do you want this kid's hands? I will cut off his hands and give them to you now, so will you let me go?"
/p>
Probably because he really wanted to leave immediately, he didn't even wait for the old Taoist priest to answer him. He stood up angrily, picked up the kitchen knife from the ground, and rushed towards the lock-picking man.
Upon seeing this, the other three people also stood up and ran towards the unlocking man while still shouting.
"Taoist Priest, we can also chop off his hand. I hope the Taoist Priest will let us go by then!"
"Taoist Priest, do you only need your hands? I can also help chop off his head."
But in the blink of an eye, the five people were fighting together.
But this scene did not last long.
Although the lockpicking man tried his best to resist, it was obviously of no use. He was already thin and was surrounded by four people at the same time, so there was basically no room for resistance.
As the unlocking man screamed, his hand was cut off.
The blood only spurted out to the other four people in an instant, but because the weather was too cold, the blood at the wound was quickly frozen and solidified.
The man who opened the door opened his eyes wide, the veins around his eyes burst out, and his eyes were filled with red bloodshot eyes.
Because of the pain, he could no longer scream, and only his body was still twitching.
The hands that fell to the ground were frozen stiff in just a short time.
The four of them were panting, and they all looked at the old Taoist priest expectantly.
"Taoist Priest, can we leave?"
The old Taoist priest first looked at the dying man, then at his frozen hands, and finally looked at the four people.
In the expectant eyes of the four people, the old Taoist priest smiled slightly and said in a very calm tone, "No."
The four of them smiled as if they had survived the disaster and thanked them one after another.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
"The Taoist priest is really a good man!"
"Taoist Master, let's leave now. We will never appear in front of Taoist Priest again in the future."
"Thank you, Taoist Master, for giving us the opportunity. We will definitely change our minds and be a new person in the future."
The four of them spoke one sentence after another, completely immersed in the joy they imagined.
The old Taoist priest looked at them calmly and reread what he just said, "I said, you can't leave."
As these words came out, the smiles on all four people's faces disappeared.
"Why... why? You just said clearly that you want that kid's hands and we will chop them off for you. You should let us go!"
The old Taoist priest sneered, "I only said I wanted his hands, but I didn't say I'd let you chop him, and I didn't promise to let you go."
The four of them were very angry, but they also looked thoughtful, as if they were recalling what happened before.
It only took a few minutes for the four of them to gather together. After reminiscing, their faces instantly turned pale.
The old Taoist priest indeed never promised them anything from beginning to end.
They were fighting with each other, and without waiting for the old Taoist priest to answer, they took action directly.
The four of them swayed, still a little unwilling.
"Then what do you plan to do with us?"
The old Taoist priest put his hands into his sleeves and raised his arms, "Of course they are the same as the two underground ones."
All the stolen things were stolen into his house, and I saw these supplies in his house. If I really let them go, what would be the difference between letting the tiger go home?
Being soft-hearted is the most important thing in the last days.
Especially you cannot be soft-hearted towards those who have designs on you.
After the old Taoist priest came in, Nan Ci made no move or said a word. He just watched quietly as the old Taoist priest dealt with these people.
Seeing the old Taoist priest's treatment and listening to what the old Taoist priest just said, Nan Ci felt very satisfied.
Although he knew before that the old Taoist priest was not a holy father, Nan Ci still felt relieved.
After all, this is her partner.
How can her partner have the heart of the Holy Mother and the Father?
Of course, the four people were not willing to die like this. After realizing that they were too weak, the four of them looked at each other, got angry at the same time, and rushed towards the old Taoist priest.
The weapons in their hands have not yet been thrown away, and they directly greeted the old Taoist priest.
In their opinion, the old Taoist priest is thin and does not seem to have much strength, so he must be easier to deal with than Nan Ci.
Even if you can't kill the old Taoist priest directly, you can escape from here as long as you hold him hostage.
Although these people didn't say a word, Nan Ci could guess what they were thinking just by looking at their actions.
But Nan Ci still stood motionless.
She still believes in the ability of the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest did not disappoint Nan Ci. When he took his hands out of his sleeves, a thin and sharp blade appeared in both hands.
The blade was held in the palm of the old Taoist priest's hand, but the blade was very long, extending from one finger to the palm of his hand. Following the movements of the old Taoist priest, the sharp blade kept moving towards the heads and necks of the four people.
The four of them didn't expect the old Taoist priest to be so powerful, and they didn't care about attacking, they just dodged again and again.
But the four of them were in a panic and only focused on dodging without any cooperation between them.
In this way, no one dodges, but blocks each other.
The four of them yelled and almost fought each other, but were stopped in time by the old Taoist priest.
The sharp blade in the old Taoist priest's hand slashed across the necks of the four of them, and all four of them fell to the ground with their eyes wide open in disbelief, making no sound at all.
The old Taoist priest squatted down, rubbed the blade against them, and sighed repeatedly.
"This won't work, it won't work, it won't work."
Listening to his meaningless words, Nan Ci just felt strange, "What's not working?"
The old Taoist priest stood up with the clean blade and said, "You shouldn't use knives in your own home. Look, the ground is covered with blood. It will be very troublesome to clean up soon."
