"Other guards, I hope you can follow me there soon and follow my orders."
"yes!"
Li Shimin came to Huasheng Temple in a hurry this time. He didn't bring many people, but more than a hundred guards.
Shen Lian left ten people for Li Shimin, and he still had a hundred and ten people in his own hands. Together with Xu Gou and other people from Shen's mansion, there were a total of one hundred and thirty people.
Compared with the bandits, the number of people is still low.
But for Shen Lian, it was enough.
He kills people with his brains, not simply through numerical suppression.
"Master Shen."
At this time, when Shen Lian was about to take people away, Deyuan suddenly stopped Shen Lian.
He said: "Master Shen, there are thirty monks in Huasheng Temple. These monks are not weak. They can help Master Shen."
The monks behind him all held their sticks tightly, ready to take action at any time.
But Shen Lian glanced at them and shook his head.
He said: "I can't take everyone away. If bandits come and kill you, you will be in trouble without force to protect you, so the monk will stay and protect you."
He then looked at the guards who stayed to protect Li Shimin and winked at them. The guards nodded slightly and surrounded Li Shimin.
Put some distance between yourself and others.
Shen Lian looked back and said, "Let's go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he led people directly into the jungle and quickly approached the mountain road relying on the cover of the trees.
Zhang He, the heir of the bandit family, took the initiative to follow Shen Lian. He saw Shen Lian's figure moving vigorously through the forest. He ran such a long way without breaking a branch or making a sound. He couldn't help but feel a little shocked and confused. Marvel.
As a thief, in order to practice his stealth ability, he often runs in the woods. When running, he must not only ensure speed, but also ensure that he cannot step on branches, make a little noise, and ensure that no one can quickly attack him. Detect the trajectory of your own actions.
Only in this way can you have the greatest possibility of safely escaping when you commit theft again.
So he knew very well how terrifying it was for Shen Lian, a non-robber and a person without special training, to be able to do this.
Even if he has been training since he was young, he can only do about the same as Shen Lian now...
No!
In terms of speed, I can't catch up with Shen Lian.
If Shen Lian hadn't stopped and waited for them after walking for a while, he would never have been able to catch up with Shen Lian.
Thinking of this, Zhang He no longer knew what he was thinking.
He had been hit so hard by Shen Lian that he almost lost his temper.
He just felt that Shen Lian was not a human being, and comparing himself to such an inhuman guy was just looking for abuse.
At this time, Shen Lian stopped again and looked forward.
At this time, they were not far from the bandits, and they could even see what some bandits looked like.
Zhang He heard behind Shen Lian, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, thought for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Sir Shen, why don't you let those monks come over?"
"Since Sir Shen dares to let His Majesty stay there, I think there will basically be no danger there. Otherwise, Sir Shen, you will definitely not leave only ten guards for His Majesty... So since there is no danger there, Why not let those monks come to help us? After all, thirty people are quite a fighting force."
When Xu Gou heard Zhang He's words, he looked at Shen Lian with some surprise.
Only then did he realize that there was something wrong with his young master not letting those monks come over.
Shen Lian didn't have any expression.
As a descendant of a thief family, if you don't even have this bit of cleverness, then what's the point of stealing? You can just turn yourself in when the time comes.
While looking at the bandits in front, he analyzed the next actions in his mind and said: "It's very simple. First, they are monks and will not kill easily."
"So, if you take them with you, why don't you let them use wooden sticks to fight these vicious people? Isn't this like going to die?"
"Of course, we can give them weapons, but we don't say whether they are hypocritical or really unwilling to kill. During a battle, they have the opportunity to kill the enemy. If they suddenly develop the so-called compassion and want to kill, it will still be very painful. People fight..."
"Then such a gap is tantamount to seeking death for these vicious people who lick blood from the knife's edge."
"So, the result is still death! And it doesn't matter if they die. You are stupid and you can't blame others. But you must know that we are acting together. Because they are stupid, they may cause other people to be in danger or even die..."
"And this is really unforgivable! Therefore, if you take them with you and worry about whether they will deceive your own people, it's better not to take them with you!"
Zhang He heard Shen Lian's words, thought for a moment, and then nodded in approval.
Indeed, this is not a small fight between a few people.
It’s really killing people!
At this time, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to one's own people.
If it were him, he would not be willing to act with someone who might be kind to his enemies.
"And the second."
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "It's because I don't completely believe them. Leaving them there is also a test."
"What?"
Zhang He suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Lian.
Shen Lian's eyes flickered a few times without explaining.
Zhang He pursed his lips and suddenly asked: "What about me, Lord Shen, aren't you afraid that I will betray you?"
Shen Lian glanced at Zhang He and said firmly: "I believe you."
Zhang He's eyes flashed fiercely, and he immediately raised his head to look at Shen Lian: "Why?"
"Because you choose to follow me, you are one of our own. I, Shen, never doubt my own people." Shen Lian said without thinking.
When Zhang He heard Shen Lian's words, many emotions suddenly arose in his heart.
The whole person felt as if the condiment bottle had been knocked over, with mixed flavors.
He was silent for a while, then suddenly shook his head.
"Damn it, I really can't stand you, you are like this... I really can't betray you, damn, hit the snake seven inches, you hit me seven inches."
Zhang He cursed.
Shen Lian glanced at Zhang He from the corner of his eye and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
With his intelligence, it is not difficult to completely conquer a person and make him loyal physically and mentally.
Now, he is really relieved about Zhang He.
"Okay, everyone is ready."
Shen Lian suddenly spoke.
Everyone looked at him.
Shen Lian took out a dagger from his arms, threw it to Zhang He, and said, "Have you ever killed anyone?"
Zhang He shook his head.
"Dare you kill someone?"
Zhang He said with a smile: "In this cruel world, if you don't kill someone, you will be killed. I have already awakened."
"That's good!"
Shen Lian looked at Xu Gou and said seriously: "Xugou, take the people to the opposite side and light a fire to attract some people's attention."
"The guards are lying in wait around, come and kill each one."
"And Zhang He..."
Shen Lian looked at Zhang He and said with a smile: "Come with me, let's do something exciting..."
After Shen Lian made the arrangements, Xu Gou and others no longer delayed and divided their forces into two groups.
Make some noise along the way to attract the bandits.
The other way is to set up traps and ambush.
With careful arithmetic and the strong strength of Li Shimin's bodyguards, it was not a big problem to deal with these bandits.
Not to mention, Shen Lian is still here.
After Shen Lian and others left, Shen Lian raised his head, glanced at the flaming ruins on the top of the mountain, squinted his eyes, gently raised a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Zhang He, let's go too."
"The enemy deliberately lured us there. If we didn't go, wouldn't it be a waste of their efforts."
Zhang He, the heir to the bandit family, couldn't help but be slightly startled when he heard this.
He looked at Shen Lian with some confusion.
"I beg your pardon for not understanding what Sir Shen means. What does Sir Shen mean?"
Shen Lian shook his head slightly and did not explain.
He swept directly into the woods and headed towards the mountain. As he walked, he said: "Just keep your eyes open and watch. You are different from Xu Gou and the others. The tasks I may ask you to perform in the future will be more dangerous than them."
"So, you need to be smarter, I don't want to collect your body one day."
"Therefore, watch more, listen more, think more, think about why I did this, think about how the enemy exposed his flaws... think more, learn more, and grow your brain."
Zhang He couldn't help scratching his head after listening to Shen Lian's words.
He thinks he is pretty smart, right?
In a house of thieves, no one has any brains to use.
So do you still need to grow your brain?
But when he remembered Shen Lian's inference just now, his ability to deduce everything with just a few clues, he immediately shut up.
Can't afford it!
It can’t be compared!
Indeed, compared to others, I am very smart.
But compared to Shen Lian, he is a retard.
Thinking of this, he followed Shen Lian obediently. In fact, in front of Lord Shen, he really had no pride at all.
The difference is so huge that it’s disappointing!
In this way, the two of them soon reached the top of the mountain.
At this time, Huasheng Temple was completely in ruins, and only some houses that had not collapsed were burned by fire.
But it seems that these houses have lasted for a long time.
I believe that before long, Huasheng Temple will be completely reduced to ashes.
At this time, some people were searching for something in the ruins of Huasheng Temple.
Zhang He felt that they should be searching the bodies to determine whether he and others were killed by the bomb or were seeking death.
But he felt that these people would be very disappointed.
"See that guy in the mask?"
At this time, Shen Lian suddenly asked in a voice.
Zhang He quickly looked in the direction pointed by Shen Lian's finger, and saw a masked man in front of a fire in the ruins, holding a big knife and standing with his head held high.
There were several bandits standing around him, obviously protecting him.
"The leader of these bandits?" Zhang He asked.
Shen Lian waved his sleeves, and a dagger appeared directly in her hand.
He didn't say much, and said directly: "I know how powerful your stealth and movement skills are at stealing doors. After a while, you and I will cooperate, and the two of us will take advantage of the chaos to sneak into their place and capture the masked man alive."
"As long as we catch him, the other bandits will be at a loss, so is there any problem?"
This is the first time Zhang He has done such a life-threatening thing.
However, he was not nervous, but rather enthusiastic and excited!
After all, as a thief, how could he be a good boy?
He took a deep breath, held the dagger Shen Lian had just given him, and nodded: "No problem!"
"Do it!"
Shen Lian didn't say anything nonsense and found someone to rush out directly.
Like a cheetah, he blinked in the air and passed away. The next moment, he had rushed behind a bandit who was searching. He covered the man's mouth with one hand and stabbed the bandit's throat with a dagger in the other hand. row.
The bandit didn't even have a chance to make a sound, and he died directly in Shen Lian's hands.
Shen Lian gently put down the bandit and attacked Zhang He.
Zhang He was a little shocked when he saw Shen Lian's quick and sharp killing moves, killing a bandit in the blink of an eye.
Too fast!
From the time Shen Lian left to the time this man was killed, it really just happened in the blink of an eye.
The other bandits around were still searching the ruins, but no one found that a companion had died.
This kind of speed, this kind of decisiveness and coldness with which he raised and lowered his sword made Zhang He feel a little nervous and he was even more in awe of Shen Lian.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, thinking that there would be no accidents when he showed off his abilities in front of Lord Shen for the first time.
He also rushed out, leaning forward, as if his whole body was parallel to the ground, and suddenly rushed to the shadow of a stone.
Then the next moment, like a shadow, he approached a bandit silently.
He hesitated for a moment, and then a flash of determination flashed through his eyes, like a deep refining, he raised the knife and dropped it, and a bandit released it from his hand.
Then he exhaled loudly.
The whole person's heart was really nervous to the extreme.
He subconsciously looked at Shen Lian.
Then it was seen that during this gap, two more people died in Shen Lian's hands.
Shen Lian seemed to feel Zhang He's gaze. He gave a thumbs up and nodded to Zhang He.
When Zhang He saw this, all the tension in his heart disappeared, and he became extremely excited.
Shen Lian was really satisfied with Zhang He's performance.
Although he was dealing with these enemies, he was also keeping an eye on Zhang He.
After all, this was Zhang He's first time killing someone, and he was worried that something might go wrong.
But Zhang He's performance was beyond his expectations. Whether he was sneaking or taking action, he was decisive and sharp.
It can also be seen that Zhang He was chosen as the heir of the bandit family for no reason.
"continue!"
Shen Lian opened his mouth, spit out two words, and then continued to act.
Zhang He was extremely nervous at first, but after actually taking action, and with Shen Lian's affirmation, he was no longer nervous.
Everyone began to relax.
The fact that he can become the heir of the thieves family shows that he is the strongest in all aspects.
And when relaxed, it really shows its horror.
The fact that he can become the heir of the thieves family shows that he is the strongest in all aspects.
