Lin Jue said angrily: "Aren't you willing to let the children go? Are you still human?"
Xiong San sneered and said: "Master Lin, you should worry more about yourself."
A man shouted: "Third Master, what are you talking about with him? Let's get back to him and do business as soon as possible."
Xiong San nodded, waved his hand, and several big men slowly approached, slowly narrowing the encirclement. Lin Jue naturally refused to surrender, and reached out to pull out the 'Torrent Box' from the bamboo basket carried by Lin Hu. Lin Hu also turned back.
Pulling out the hatchet from his waist, the two of them squeezed together back to back with nervous expressions.
"Mr. Lin, if you do this, don't blame us for being rude. Brothers, if he wants to resist today, we don't care whether he is dead or alive. We can just bring the corpse back to deliver the report. Don't be merciful, lest you die like the brothers who came before.
Come on, people." Xiong San shouted sharply.
All the big men agreed in unison, and a big man jumped down from the stone steps above with a loud shout, and struck Lin Hu on the head with the steel knife in his hand. Although Lin Hu was brave, he was only a young man after all. He had never seen anything like this before.
A battle with real swords and guns. Seeing this situation, my face turned pale with fright, and I didn't know whether to resist or retreat with the hatchet in my hand.
Lin Jueyang pointed his hand at the man's face and pulled the trigger. Boom! The tortoise box in his hand let out a roar. The man covered his face and rolled down the stone steps until he rolled to Xiong San's feet below.
The men were stunned by the loud noise. Xiong San frowned and looked at the big man who rolled to his feet. He kicked him with his feet and yelled: "What are you doing? Why don't you get up?"
This kick caused the man on the ground to turn his face upward, and suddenly a mangled face appeared in front of everyone. Everyone trembled and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Damn it, he's dead. Damn it, Lin Jue, you actually dare to resist and kill my brothers. Brothers, you have a smart idea. You don't have to catch them alive anymore, just kill them." Xiong San shouted.
roared.
As soon as Lin Jue fired his shot, he was busy loading the iron bullets. He was already determined to die and just wanted to kill a few more weaklings. The first shot killed a gangster, and the gangsters were stunned, so he
He started reloading regardless.
But this bastard box is really troublesome. It is extremely troublesome to load gunpowder and iron bullets. It needs to be pressed into the gun chamber through small holes, and the procedures are complicated. Before he could load the ammunition, Xiong San and seven or eight gangsters had already raised their knives to kill them.
Came over.
Looking at the flashing sword light above and below, Lin Jue let out a long sigh, knowing that the end was coming. He stretched out his hand to pull Lin Hu to his side, hugged him in his arms, and slowly closed his eyes.
Whoosh whoosh! Several rays of cold light shot out from the woods on the left. The two gangsters who rushed to the nearest screamed and fell away, rolling down the stone steps. Then, a sweet scream resounded through the dark mountain road.
In the middle, there was a continuous sound of gold and iron clashing.
Lin Jue opened his eyes in surprise, only to see a blue shadow wrapped in a sword light fighting several gangsters on the stone steps below. There were three or four bloody corpses lying beside him. There were also people lying down at the bottom of the stone steps.
The bodies of the two gangsters.
Lin Jue looked at the beautiful figure in a green skirt below in surprise, and blurted out: "Is it...Miss Mu Qing?"
The visitor was none other than Gao Muqing. At this moment, she was wielding a long sword to force Xiong San and the remaining three gangsters into a panic. They were in a condescending position, and Gao Muqing's martial arts was superior to theirs. Although Xiong San also had some skills.
, but they were by no means an opponent. After several rounds of fighting, Gao Muqing's long sword trembled like a flower, and a gangster next to Xiong San was struck by the sword in his chest and fell down screaming.
Xiong San yelled and slashed with the long knife in his hand, but he couldn't touch half of Gao Muqing's clothes. When the other gangster also fell, Xiong San knew that he couldn't succeed today, so he suddenly stretched out his foot and kicked him.
, kicked the last gangster on the side and fell towards Gao Muqing. He took the opportunity to jump back and flew towards the mountain forest on the right.
Gao Muqing swung his sword to kill the last gangster. In the middle of his busy schedule, he took out the flying knife and was about to raise his hand to shoot it out, but there was a loud bang and a puff of smoke rose up on the mountain road. Xiong San's body
It shook a bit, flew out, and lay down on the edge of the mountain road.
Gao Muqing turned around and saw Lin Jue holding the smoking muzzle and waving the smoke in front of him with one hand. Gao Muqing returned the sword to its sheath, holding a flying knife in his hand and slowly walked towards where Xiong San fell.
Xiong San's back was punched with dozens of holes, and blood was pouring out, but he was not lost yet. He grabbed the tree roots and turf with his fingers and crawled desperately into the woods. Lin Jue also rushed over, holding the tortoise box in his hand.
He reloaded the gun and aimed it at Xiong San's head, ready to shoot at any moment. However, Gao Muqing waved his hand, indicating that he did not need to shoot, because Xiong San's back was smashed and his lungs were damaged, and he obviously would not survive.
"You...you are so...cowardly. The island owner will not let you go...you will all die...Lin Jue, if you kill the island owner's beloved son, the island owner will use you to sacrifice the second son alive."
.I want to dig out your heart...cut out your eyeballs...stick out your tongue...and then feed you to the sharks. Hehe...you...none of you can escape."
Xiong San sprayed blood and foam from his mouth, gasping for breath, and said viciously. His lungs were punctured, so he breathed like a broken old bellows with a strange noise of howling in the night wind.
.
Lin Jue frowned. These gangsters were really tough. They were still threatening others and saying harsh words.
"Xiong San, Qiu Biao... no, he should be called Jiang Jingui. Jiang Jingui died unjustly. His death was his own fault. He died under the ambition of your island owner Hai Dongqing. Hai Dongqing wanted to wait for an opportunity to rebel.
That’s why I sent Jiang Jingui to his death. It’s okay for you to bear this debt on my head.”
"Hehe, of course it's on you. Boy... do you think you can escape? After we die, there will be more powerful ones to come and get you later. Originally... I would just take you alone. But now
, when the news of our failure spreads back, the island owner will send more powerful people to catch you, and all of you in the Lin family... No one can survive. Haha... Ahem... You don't know how annoyed you are.
The price the island owner will suffer, do you think that hiding in the city will be the end of it? Haha, no one will survive, they all... will... die."
Xiong San managed to finish saying these cruel words, and his body suddenly twitched and shook like a shrimp that had landed on the beach. Then his face became gray and defeated, and a long breath filled with blood foam protruded out, and he died.
Lin Jue stood there with a frown on his face for a long time. It wasn't until he saw Gao Muqing's bright eyes looking at him with a smile that he remembered to step forward and salute.
"Master Gao Dazhao, why did you suddenly have magical weapons descending from the sky? This saved my life. Did you expect that I was in trouble, and then the goddess descended to earth to save me?"
Gao Muqing chuckled and said angrily: "What are you talking about? How could I have expected you to be in trouble?"
Lin Jue said in surprise: "Then why do you appear here and now?"
Gao Muqing said: "It's hard to explain. It's better to deal with the bodies of these people quickly, otherwise they will be scattered here. If someone walks on the mountain road at night, they will be scared to death."
Lin Jue nodded hurriedly and said: "That's right, this is the main road to the academy. Although there may not be anyone walking at night, if students pass by here tomorrow morning, they will be scared to death. It will be troublesome for the government to know."
At that moment, the three of them dragged more than ten corpses to the woods on the hillside, found a pothole and threw them all in, covering them with fallen leaves and branches. This kind of disposal was obviously not appropriate, but they could only bury them tomorrow.
Bringing tools to bury them, that was all they could do for the time being. After a lot of work, it was already dark. Fortunately, Lin Hu had everything in his backpack. He lit the lantern and the three of them hurried down the mountain.
Ever since Jiao Da's spying incident happened, Lin Jue's mule cart no longer had people driving it. Lin Hu also quickly learned to drive, and the mule cart was parked in the village at the foot of the mountain and asked the people to take care of it. The three of them got on the cart and headed for
After rushing to Hangzhou, Lin Juezai had no time to ask why Gao Muqing suddenly appeared here.
"Mu Qing, how did you come to Hangzhou and happened to save us on the mountain road? Isn't this God's will? If you hadn't come today, Xiaohu and I would have been here. Thank you for saving our lives." Lin Jue cupped his hands and said thanks.
road.
"Do you really think I can predict that you will be in trouble today? I don't have that ability. But I did come to Hangzhou to protect you secretly. In fact, I have been following you for more than two months. I have been hiding in the dark.
I just didn’t show up to see you.”
Gao Muqing's words shocked Lin Jue. She had been secretly protecting him for more than two months without him knowing.
"You mean, you knew I was in danger? So you came here to protect me?"
Gao Muqing gave Lin Jue an angry look and said: "Don't you know you are in danger? The one you killed in my village was Hai Dongqing's son. How could they be willing to stop? I didn't plan to come out originally, but don't worry
No less. And I got news later that year that Haidongqing was determined to take action against you. How could I sit idly by and watch? So I left the affairs of the village to the owners of the second village and the others, and came to Hangzhou."
Lin Jue nodded and said, "Then why don't you show up and see me?"
Gao Muqing rolled his eyes at him and said: "With my identity, can I reveal myself? Furthermore, if I appear in the open, I will be monitored by Hai Dongqing's people, which is not conducive to protecting you secretly. Therefore, I have been hiding in the dark.
"This is called a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole behind it. You are too careless and are walking arrogantly in these wilderness areas. Don't you know the danger to yourself?"
Lin Jue frowned and said: "I am also a little defensive in my heart, but there has been nothing unusual in the past few months, so I have relaxed my vigilance. I always thought that Hai Dongqing would not dare to do whatever he wanted on the ground of Hangzhou Mansion."
Gao Muqing sneered and said: "They don't dare? What do they dare not do? I might as well tell you that with today's group of people, I have sent three groups for you. The first two groups were dealt with in secret, and you didn't
I just don’t know.”
Lin Jue's eyes widened in shock, and he was sweating faintly. It turned out that today's group of people was already the third group. In other words, without Gao Muqing's care in the dark, he might have died three times.
