Ninety-two, against bandits on horseback
Bai Yu followed Jiu Shu to a forest outside the town.
The villagers here are holding spears one by one and cautiously guarding in the grass.
Bai Yu followed Jiu Shu to the front, looking in the direction where the horse thieves were supposed to come from. He felt that at this moment, the surroundings were shrouded in a strange and eerie atmosphere. The sound of unknown birds calling out echoed through the air, causing everyone present to be on high alert.
At this time, Ninth Uncle leaned in close to Bai Yu and said softly: "Fellow Taoist, those horse bandits will be here soon. Since you don't have a sword, why not go get one from Ah Qiang?"
Bai Yu nodded and responded with a "yes", then bowed his head and moved to the rear of the horse.
When he saw Ah Qiang and others, Bai Yu smiled and said: "Captain, I came here to borrow a soldier's knife for trial use."
But Ah Qiang suddenly put his finger to his mouth, hushed him with a voice that was barely audible, saying: "Speak softly, the horse thieves are coming soon, what if they hear? Do you want a knife? Here, take it and use it." Then he handed a knife to Bai Yu.
Upon hearing this, he shook his head in dismay and continued on his way forward.
At this moment, a loud whistling sound suddenly came from afar, causing everyone present to be shocked and holding their breath, not daring to make a single sound.
Bai Yu also hastily found a place to hide at this time.
In just a moment, the sound of horseshoes echoed from afar, carrying an aura of sharpness towards the direction where the person was hiding. From a relatively far distance, Bai Yu could clearly see that the number of horse bandits was not many, only around several dozen people. However, these people were all dressed in strange attire, wearing cloaks and naturally exuding an eerie aura, while a killing intent also emerged as they drew closer.
Jiǔ shū jiàn dào zhè me duō de mǎ zéi xiàng zhe zhè ge fāng xiàng ér lái, dùn shí lì kè de xiàng zhe shēn hòu de ā qiáng shǐ le yī gè yǎn sè.
A Qiang received this eye color and immediately understood the intention. He hastily ordered the people around him to prepare to trigger the trap at any time.
Watching this familiar scene, Bai Yu couldn't help but nod secretly. This series of things must have been thought up by Jiu Shu. It's no wonder that the people in this town trust Jiu Shu so much. It seems that in the hearts of the townspeople, his status is not inferior to that of the town mayor.
At this time, a group of horse thieves had gradually approached their direction, and Jiu Shu's hand also slowly rose.
As the group of horse thieves gradually approached the designated area, Ninth Uncle's hand suddenly swung, and with this swing, the people on the other side who were ready also suddenly pulled the ropes in their hands.
"Hush!" A row of wooden stakes, sharpened to a point, suddenly stood up in front of the horse thieves. The horse thieves were shocked at this scene and the people in front shouted out in unintelligible dialects. Immediately, these people hastily turned their horses' heads and retreated back the way they came.
But they had not gone far when a row of sharp wooden stakes stood in their way.
Bai Yu looked at everything in front of him and knew that all this was arranged by Ninth Uncle, next they would be led to another trap.
As expected, these people were not going to sit back and wait for death when they encountered such a situation. One by one, they fiercely spurred their horses' bellies, and instantly the spirits of these horses were greatly shocked, as if they had all been injected with chicken blood at the same time. Without regard for the sharp wooden stakes, they kicked open their hooves and charged forward in a straight line.
This group of people's riding skills are extremely superb, with wooden stakes about 1.5 meters high, they were able to jump over them with their horses. They jumped over the wooden stakes, knowing that there might be an ambush but couldn't care less.
At this time, the ninth uncle waved his hand again, and a group of townspeople who had been hiding for a long time suddenly picked up their weapons and shouted as they killed the rushing horse thieves.
However, it seemed to be pre-arranged, and most of these people were holding bamboo poles that were over a few meters long.
At this time, Bai Yu naturally would not be idle, and he saw him suddenly raise the steel knife in his hand and kill these horse thieves.
The horse bandits were all caught off guard by this unexpected turn of events and were in a state of panic, each one on their horses only having the chance to block, without any opportunity to counterattack.
At this moment, the only woman among these horse thieves - the leader of the horse thieves suddenly let out a loud shout, pointing in one direction and leading the way to escape. Bai Yu knew that there was still an ambush in that direction, and did not stop them, but followed behind the group of people and horses to chase after them.
At this time, he saw Ninth Uncle also chasing after him not far away, quickened his pace to get closer to him, and said while running alongside: "Fellow Taoist, I think these horse bandits seem to be not ordinary people, we should be careful."
Ninth Uncle fell silent for a moment, then nodded and said: "Indeed, when I saw this group of people earlier, I had an uncomfortable feeling in my heart. It seems that these people are all unlearned and unskilled, they may still use some evil techniques, so I'll instruct our people to be careful." Then he shouted loudly: "Everyone be careful later, these people are not ordinary people, we must be cautious in dealing with them."
Everyone present nodded solemnly with a serious expression, deeply convinced by Ninth Uncle's words.
Ah Qiang, who was at the forefront, turned his head and smiled at Jiu Shu: "Master, don't worry, with so many of us, we'll definitely be able to wipe them out. Even if we can't, there's still you, Master. Once you take action, no matter what kind of skills these bandits have, they'll have to surrender."
Can't help but say that Ah Qiang has been following Jiu Shu for a long time and is also very familiar with his temper. One sentence made Jiu Shu extremely happy, and there was also a hint of pride in his eyes. However, being proud is one thing, but Jiu Shu still didn't dare to relax, and he turned back to face Bai Yu, saying softly: "Fellow Taoist, we'll have to take good care of each other later and help deal with those bandits."
Bai Yu nodded and said with a serious expression: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, I will definitely not slack off later."
Just as they were talking, they had already arrived at the last trap. At this time, the horse bandits had taken the bait, and most of them had been knocked off their horses by the flying wooden beams.
When they saw the horse thieves fall off their horses, the townspeople all charged at them with fiery eyes.
"Kill." "Charge!"
In an instant, the two armies clashed and merged into a ball of chaos.
The horse bandits also aroused their ferocity at this time, seeing the townsmen killing them, one by one, they also raised their weapons in hand and rushed towards them.
Bai Yu knew how to deal with these people, so he wouldn't rush over like that. Immediately, he bit his middle finger and applied the blood evenly to the blade, then picked one and killed him on the way.
At this time, the horse bandits were fighting one-on-one with a dozen or so townsmen, but the battle was a one-sided affair, with the townsmen being slaughtered by the horse bandits. The horse bandits had practiced evil arts, making their bodies as hard as steel, and ordinary swords and spears could not harm them in the slightest. All that could be heard were the townsmen's blades clashing against the horse bandits' bodies, producing only a "clang clang" sound of metal meeting metal, but the horse bandits did not even flinch.
Bai Yu let out a cold laugh and suddenly stomped his foot, the next moment he seemed to transform into a giant bird soaring into the air.
When he reached a certain height, his body rapidly fell down, his legs suddenly bent, and with great force, just as he was about to land in front of the horse thief, one foot kicked out, as if transformed into a golden whip, striking towards the top of the horse thief's head.
"With a kick, the horse thief was as if struck by a meteor from the sky, his head bearing the brunt of the force, instantly sinking and then falling to the ground, his head also being kicked into the mud."
Although the horse thief's body was as strong as steel, his strength was unmatched, but his speed was a weakness, otherwise he wouldn't have been entangled with these ordinary villagers for so long. However, speed was still one of Bai Yu's specialties, and just as he was about to land, his figure suddenly changed in mid-air, and the knife in his hand changed direction, slashing towards the horse thief's neck.
"Ding Dong" was still the sound of metal clashing, but then Bai Yu pulled back the knife handle and with a "hiss", in an instant, a line of blood appeared on the horse bandit's throat.
The horse thief was slashed and, due to his unique physical condition, the pain was unbearable. The pain was so intense that he rolled around on the ground for a while before finally dying, but with his eyes still open.
Having seen the dead horse thief, Bai Yu did not dare to linger and immediately followed other horse thieves.
However, he found that all the bandits were some who had no one to deal with, but they were very powerful, so as to avoid causing more casualties.
For Bai Yu now, these ordinary horse bandits are indeed no match, in general, just four or five moves and it's all settled.
At this moment, a loud roar suddenly echoed across the entire battlefield, causing Bai Yu's heart to skip a beat as he hastily looked around in search of the source.
All he saw was a figure wearing a cloak, rushing towards him at an incredible speed. Taking a closer look, Bai Yu was shocked to discover that it was the leader of the horse thieves. At this moment, she had a furious expression on her face, and in her hand was something like an animal's tail that was shaking violently.
Bai Yu was extremely surprised, he didn't expect the leader of the horse thieves to find him at this time. However, after thinking about it, it made sense, as Bai Yu had killed the most horse thieves in the current battle situation, with three or four of them dying under his knife just a moment ago.
