Lin Xiao furrowed his brows and turned his head. He found that the bandits were roaring and charging at him as if they had been injected with stimulants. They held all kinds of weapons in their hands and began to greet him. Lin Xiao was furious. He coldly snorted and fiercely swung the whip in his hand. Immediately, there were two screams and the two people running at the front were thrown away. But there were many bandits. They quickly surrounded Lin Xiao and his horse, making it impossible for him to escape.
These days of mental and physical exhaustion and despair caused Lin Xiao's body to feel weak. But with his cultivation, it didn't take much effort to deal with this motley crew. Every time he swung his arm, at least one person would be thrown away. Fortunately, he didn't use too much force. Although they cried out in pain, none of them were killed. It didn't take long for half of the fifty to sixty bandits to fall. They covered their wounds and cried for their fathers and mothers. The big man was dumbfounded. The big man hurriedly retreated a few steps and trembled as he shouted, "Quick … Quick, go call the boss."
"What are you calling me for?" As soon as he finished speaking, a tall and burly middle-aged man with a physique even thicker than the big man appeared behind him and said coldly.
The big man was shocked and hurriedly turned his head. He said, "B-b-b-boss, when are you coming? Boss, you're really clever. We've really run into a fat sheep. Look, look, look … There's a total of six thousand taels of silver. It's more than what we've robbed before. But this fat sheep is a bit troublesome. Look … "
"Shut up. It's not like I didn't bring my eyes." The middle-aged man looked at Lin Xiao who was slapping the bandits one by one and the corners of his mouth curled into a strange smile.
With a crisp sound, another two people were thrown away. There was a long bloody wound on their chests and they fell to the ground, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves. The remaining dozen or so people were so scared that they didn't dare to step forward anymore. When they saw their boss, they all hid behind him. "Boss is brave, Boss is mighty, Boss is invincible … Boss, I'll leave this person to you."
"You bunch of trash. You want me to personally deal with such a small matter? I've really raised you for nothing." The middle-aged man cursed. He rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Lin Xiao. "I'll personally teach you a lesson!"
Lin Xiao snorted angrily. Ignoring him, he whipped his horse and galloped forward. The middle-aged man's eyes flickered as he cursed, "You want to run? Did Grandpa agree to it? "
Lin Xiao, who didn't take it to heart, suddenly heard a strong gust of wind behind him. He turned his head in shock and found that the middle-aged man was already behind him. He was so fast that he was far faster than the horse he was riding. He quickly raised his horse whip and lashed it at the middle-aged man's shoulder. With a "pa" sound, the middle-aged man was heavily whipped. The clothes on his shoulder immediately tore apart. However, not only was his body not sent flying, he didn't even pause for a moment. His exposed bronze skin didn't even have a scratch on it. There were no signs of being whipped.
Lin Xiao was shocked. The middle-aged man roared, "Motherf * cker, you dare to whip me? Get down!!"
The strong gust of wind suddenly turned into a storm. Before Lin Xiao could defend himself, he was blown off his horse like a leaf. His body rolled on the ground for a long time before he stopped. The middle-aged man had already closed in on him and punched at his chest with the force of Mount Tai. Lin Xiao was shocked. He raised his horse whip and wrapped it around the middle-aged man's arm. The middle-aged man gave a cold snort and shook his arm. The horse whip immediately broke into several pieces. Lin Xiao's right hand also felt as if it had been shaken. The horse whip flew out of his hand and the web between his thumb and forefinger was broken and blood slowly seeped out.
This person was so strong! Lin Xiao's heart trembled. With such strength, how could he be reduced to a mountain bandit?!
The middle-aged man grabbed him by the collar and flung him far away. And in this short period of time, Lin Xiao felt a strange warmth flow through his body. It made his body weak and he couldn't muster any strength.
"Boss is brave, boss is mighty, boss is invincible … Boss is brave, boss is mighty, boss is invincible …" The group of little bandits immediately shouted in excitement. They let out all kinds of strange cries, mixed with even more roars of pain that didn't weaken. The middle-aged man walked over and said calmly, "Hmph, you want me to personally deal with such a small matter? Idiot, search his body and see if he's hiding anything good. Three idiots, go get his bag. If you dare to steal anything, I'll break your hand."
"I wouldn't dare, I definitely wouldn't dare."
With the bag in hand, the middle-aged man rolled his eyes and chuckled, "Kid, we'll accept this gift. Consider yourself lucky to have fallen into our hands. In the future, follow me. I promise you'll eat well and drink well."
After the initial panic, Lin Xiao quickly calmed down and asked, "Senior, with your skills, you must be a famous person on the continent. Why are you willing to be reduced to a mountain bandit?"
The middle-aged man glared at him, "At least you're sensible. Who doesn't know that I, Iron Block, am a famous person in the continent? So what if I'm famous? I love being a mountain bandit and want to live happily. Even if that dog of an emperor in the city gives up his throne to me, I don't care. "
Lin Xiao frowned. He knew he couldn't reason with these people. He softened his tone and said, "Senior …"
"What senior? Do you think I'm that old?"
"Then brother, I have no enmity with you. Since you've already gotten what you want, why are you still forcing me?"
"Oh?" What made Lin Xiao puzzled was that the middle-aged man's gaze became somewhat ambiguous. He grinned and said, "Kid, how do you know we have no enmity with each other?"
With that said, he stood up and roared, "Little ones, go get all the pots and bowls for me. Also, bring the cow we robbed yesterday and this kid's horse. It's enough for us to have a feast. Today, we don't need to be bandits anymore. We'll have a free meal in our territory, and then I'll take you to do even bigger things! "
"Aooo!!"
The boss's prestige was not just for show. The group of bandits immediately responded and scattered like birds and beasts. Not long after, some carried the pots, some carried the bowls, and some carried the firewood. Not long after, they actually set up pots and stoves on the road and slaughtered cows and horses. This made Lin Xiao blush with shame. While lamenting his fate, he couldn't help but sigh at the strangeness of these people's actions.
After a long time, the aroma of meat permeated the air. Fifty to sixty bandits began to surround the pots and stoves and eat the so-called "free meal". Occasionally, passersby would pass by, and all of them had a look of surprise on their faces. However, these bandits didn't even look at them and let them pass by. The boss had said that they didn't need to be bandits anymore.
Lin Xiao was surrounded alone in the middle. No one went to greet him. It was as if he had been forgotten. His entire body's strength was sealed by that strange warm power. He didn't even have the strength to stand up. And this free meal went on for more than an hour without any signs of dispersing. Lin Xiao's heart became more and more nervous.
Right at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard approaching from the south. It seemed like a large group of people was approaching. The bandits were immediately alerted. The middle-aged man who called himself 'Iron Block' threw away the bone in his hand and leaped onto a tree by the side of the road. He looked into the distance and immediately let out a strange cry, "Not good, the soldiers are coming … Run, run quickly!!"
It was obviously too late for them to be alerted after hearing the hooves. Just as the middle-aged man's voice fell, a group of palace guards on horseback had already appeared in their line of sight. They were less than a hundred meters away. And when they discovered the palace guards, the other party also discovered them.
The frightened bandits immediately swarmed away. They didn't care about the pots and bowls anymore. None of them dared to stay. The middle-aged man who was called boss ran faster than anyone else. As soon as they left, Lin Xiao was the only one left standing there. He was especially eye-catching.
When Lin Xiao saw the attire of those people, his heart sank. He knew what his fate would be if he were to be captured this time.
"Boss, silver notes, silver notes!"
"Silver your sister's notes. Is silver more important or your life more important!!" The middle-aged man cursed. Although that was what he said, his body rushed back at an even faster speed. He ran all the way to the bag and grabbed all the silver notes. At this time, the palace guards were less than ten meters away from him. As he ran back like a madman, he shouted, "Little ones, I've got the silver notes. All of you, go back to your old nest. Everyone has a share …"
When the middle-aged man returned, Lin Xiao suddenly felt his body regaining its strength. He suddenly stood up. At this time, the palace guards who were chasing him were already in front of him. The one leading them was the commander of the palace guards, Wu Shang!
Thinking that Lin Xiao's cultivation was extraordinary and not someone ordinary people could deal with, Long Yin was furious. He ordered Wu Shang to personally lead a group of people to capture Lin Xiao alive.
Seeing Wu Shang, Lin Xiao's heart sank even more. Even if there were a hundred ordinary palace guards, he wouldn't be afraid. But the commander of the palace guards, Wu Shang, was not someone he could deal with.
Wu Shang couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the madly fleeing bandits. Instead, he was grateful to them. Looking at the situation, Lin Xiao had clearly fallen into the hands of these bandits. As for the details, he didn't have the mood to think about it. He stopped in front of Lin Xiao and shouted, "Lin Xiao, you really escaped here! You can't escape anymore. Why aren't you surrendering and coming back with me to plead guilty?! "
Lin Xiao took a step back and said with a disappointed face, "Lord Wu, we have known each other for many years and have exchanged pointers many times. Could it be that you really don't know what kind of person I, Lin Xiao, am?"
Wu Shang coldly snorted, "I only know that you, Lin Xiao, have committed a scandal. His Majesty didn't want to announce it because of your reputation, but you escaped from prison. Now, everyone in the palace knows about it. Rumors have spread everywhere in the city, causing the Emperor's reputation to be greatly damaged. All of this is because of you. If you have a clear conscience, why did you do such a rebellious thing?! Come back with me immediately, I can still plead for you. "
Lin Xiao fiercely clenched his teeth and resolutely said, "Now that things have come to this, I have no way out. Not only am I doing this for my own life, I am also doing this for the sake of the Lin family. I cannot go back!"
