Chapter 242 The Leader Appears
"Cut it!" Kujo Takeshun held the knife in both hands and chopped it on the snake's neck. There was a sound of tearing flesh, which was exciting.
Shenli Sanqi drew his sword and chopped, then in the blink of an eye swung the sword three times, all chopping at the same place, where the previous sword had landed. A crack appeared on the snake's head, almost as deep as the one caused by Hiiragi Qiuhu's axe.
As for the man with a young body, he was even worse. The sword skills he used were mainly used for fighting with others. After one strike of the sword, there would be a fake move, and he couldn't change it forcibly, otherwise he would forget the sword skills, which would be troublesome.
After all, this sword technique was created not long ago and has not been recorded yet. If he forgets it, everything will be lost. This is even before he has practiced it to the point of mastering it and turning the tangible into the intangible.
Bang, bang!
There was a loud noise coming from the snake's head. It was actually caused by Hiiragi Qiuhu swinging his axe and hitting the snake's head bone. After these two hits, the giant snake had no breath anymore. However, after the death of the long worm, the corpse would still move instinctively for some time.
The entire body of the giant snake began to roll around. Fortunately, the force and speed were not great, otherwise the four people would have to flee in a hurry again.
Shenli Sangxi looked at the giant snake corpse and laughed, "This thing looks big, but it turns out to be no bigger than the last one!"
"This is all thanks to our brother, otherwise, you, Kamisato Sangxi, would have no chance of success!" Kujo Takeshun was as usual, the two of them bickering, perhaps only stopping during the fight.
"Wu Shun is right. This time and last time, it's all thanks to my brother." Shu Qiuhu patted Mo Ran and said with a smile.
The young man joked, "Brother, you are so fierce, even stronger than that snake!"
Mo Ran remained expressionless and silent, because that was the kind of person he was at the moment. If he really said something, it would probably scare them.
The strength of this giant snake monster is actually much higher than the previous one, but this time they did not fight with the snake first, so Mo Ran had the opportunity to greatly reduce the strength of the giant snake, otherwise it would be another tough battle.
In that case, we would not be able to keep up with the changes in the village and would have to revise the original plan, which would be too troublesome.
"Let's go back to the village." Shu Qiuhu put his arm around his older brother's shoulder, and Mo Ran also bent down slightly so that he wouldn't have to walk with one step higher than the other.
"Hehe, this time the whole village will know the name of the team that Shenli Sangxi is in!" Shenli Sangxi said with a knife on his shoulder, grinning.
Kujo Takeshun rolled his eyes and said, "Even without you, someone in our team would still know."
"What do you mean?"
"That's what it means!"
"Hey, you two, don't quarrel. After we return to the village, let's have a fair duel to decide who is right. How about that?" The young man suggested.
"Okay, we'll listen to you." The two said in unison.
Shu Qiuhu looked back and saw them more than ten steps behind him, and shouted, "You three, hurry up!"
"Okay!" The three of them ran towards the two people who had their arms around each other's shoulders. The world is big, the eldest is the most important, and when parents are not around, the eldest brother is like a father.
As the oldest among these people, Shuqiuhu is like their own brother and takes good care of them. However, when he does not need care, this eldest brother is no different from their own brother.
Those who need to be beaten will be beaten, and those who need to be taught will be taught, but if others want to bully my brothers, sorry, no such thing is allowed. No matter who they are, how strong they are, or what their status is, Shuqiuhu will swing his axe at them first before talking about other things.
This is the principle he follows as the eldest brother, a principle that is never stated explicitly but is understood by everyone.
As soon as they approached the village, the four men's eyes changed, and they all realized that something was wrong. Only Mo Ran, the diligent and responsible fool, still had a calm face.
All the guards around the village have disappeared. Logically, during this important period when all the guards need to be eliminated, the defense should be strengthened. At least it won't be like it is now, where even the hooligans who often hang out outside are not seen.
"Boss Shu?" The other three looked at Shu Qiuhu, waiting for his instructions.
"We can't worry about so many things. Our wives, children, and my brother's two sisters are still in the village!" Qiu Qiuhu put down the hand that was on Mo Ran's shoulder, picked up the axe, and took the lead.
Behind him was Mo Ran, followed by Kujo Takeshun, Kamisato Sanqi and a young man at the rear. The five of them charged forward with great momentum, because they possessed something that ordinary people could not understand.
The most sincere and pure friendship between brothers and the idea of risking one's life for family. If you take either of these two, they are both good people, let alone if they have both.
Passing through the outermost houses, there was no sound except for a few people breathing and light footsteps. Everything was as silent as death.
The deeper they went, the more frightened they felt about this familiar village, because there really was not a single person in sight. It was as if they had disappeared out of thin air, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.
And the four members of the escort team had serious expressions, as if this was not the first time such a thing had happened. Mo Ran also had a guess in his mind.
Over the past three months, all kinds of rumors and gossip in the village have been slowly laid out into a complete picture through real retelling.
The leader of this village stood in the very center of the village, where there stood a wooden wall more than two people high, with only one entrance and exit, which was usually guarded by the leader's confidants.
If it were just that, it would be nothing, but there was not only the chief living there, but also two women he had "formally married" in the village, and even more women he had secretly taken away.
Standing in the alley, Mo Ran had already noticed what was happening in the central area, which was very lively at this moment.
After he took a step forward, he did not stop and ran as fast as he could. In the eyes of others, it seemed as if something important concerning life and death was about to happen.
The four of them were worried and were about to go home to check. When they reunited afterwards, they saw their brother running away, heading straight for the center of the village, and they also started running after him.
At this time, all the residents were standing in the center, crowded together, and on the outermost side was a circle of guards holding knives.
Next to the door of the wooden wall stood a middle-aged man in his forties, with his black hair tied into a small braid pointing upwards.
Not to mention the middle-aged man's appearance, there was a hint of viciousness and greed between his eyebrows, and his eyes, as small as rice grains, swept over the women among the residents with unspeakable meanings.
"Boss, that girl was just yelling and screaming that she would rather die than get married. But after you mentioned her sister and that idiot, she calmed down a lot!"
The middle-aged man, a guard with a flattering smile on his face and a knife in his hand, smiled with raised eyebrows.
"Haha, this is called barter. As long as she obeys me after today, her sister will be fine, and I will treat her well. It's fair!"
"That's right, Boss, you are in charge of our village. You work hard every day. It's her blessing to be able to serve you!"
The middle-aged man smiled calmly. It was obvious what the guard wanted. He waved his hand and said, "Her sister is pretty. Although I promised her that I would take good care of her, if she gets seriously ill one day, it will be difficult to save her."
"When the time comes, I will have to take care of the burial arrangements. I won't be able to take care of the dead girl's sister. Please go and help me take care of her!"
The guard's body trembled as he heard the sound, and his breathing became heavier. He wiped his mouth, his eyes full of fire, and he was as impatient as a weak horse, but then he calmed down.
"Boss, what should we do with that idiot? I heard he's very strong! And he protects these two girls very well. What if..."
"I've already told you you're a fool, isn't it easy to get rid of him?" The middle-aged man smiled, and his smile was very cold.
He was not worried about strength or anything like that, because there were ten guards standing inside and outside the door, which was why he was fearless. And it was only like that on the surface, he had many tricks up his sleeve behind the scenes.
The middle-aged man glanced at the sky and said, "It's almost time. Bring the girl out to meet the people, and then let everyone go back!"
"Yes." The two guards beside the middle-aged man walked into a house without changing their expressions. These two people were the death warriors trained by him personally, and they were one of the life-saving backup plans he absolutely trusted.
As for the guard who seemed to be from the same lineage as the middle-aged man, he could only watch helplessly, even though he couldn't do anything as he had brought people out.
But at least he could get some benefits, threaten the leader a few times, and maybe even become his brother-in-law. But now it seems that there is not much hope.
"Boss, the person is here." Two assassins were holding a rope in their hands. At the other end of the rope was tied a woman with black hair and black eyes, who was about 28 years old.
This woman was naturally real. Her delicate body, hands and feet were all tied up tightly. She could only move her feet step by step when walking. The corners of her eyes were slightly red, obviously she had just cried. Her lips were slightly open, but she was speaking.
The middle-aged man put his hands behind his back, looking down at the girl with an attitude of superiority, while the guard next to him took a look and could not take his eyes away.
Being tied up tightly and with her clothes soaked with sweat and pressed against her delicate body, this is exactly the scene that those with evil intentions like this guard like to see the most.
"After today, you are mine. Don't worry, I will treat you well." There was no lustful look on the middle-aged man's face, and he did not touch her.
Because in his perception, the woman who marries him belongs to him, everything about her belongs to him. Even if it is just ordinary pinching of the face or touching of the hands, he will not do it in front of outsiders. He cannot let others see his woman's shy posture.
This middle-aged man also has a habit, which is to wait until the wedding night, and then start slowly, bit by bit, as if he were unpacking a box very carefully.
Therefore, even though he was caught until now, he has not been touched by this disgusting middle-aged man. Otherwise, let alone Mo Ran who is always paying attention to this place, there is also the shadow who is not here but will be there at any time.
If I really did it myself, I would make this middle-aged man die in the most painful way, and then no body would be left, his soul would be scattered, and there would be absolutely no trace left!
"It's getting late. Come on, go out with me and then we can talk about our ideals until tomorrow morning." The middle-aged man took the rope from the assassin, took a small step, and stopped to wait for Zhen behind him to prevent her from falling.
It can be said that he played the role of a loving newlywed wife, but the tear marks in the corners of the bride's eyes, the unwilling yet submissive look in her eyes, and the ropes tied around her body, any one of them was enough to reveal the truth of the matter.
Therefore, his behavior is just for himself to see and to please himself.
Of course, the residents who were summoned outside the door knew what was going on. The leader had a new woman again, and he wanted them to watch the fun again.
But this was the first time that such a large number of people were mobilized and all the residents were called. They didn't care much about the woman they married. Most of them were thinking about whether they could get more food.
Anyway, in today's world, what can they do if they care? They can't save the girl who may be a lamb to the lamb. It's better to satisfy their own stomachs before saying compassionately about how miserable and suffering that person is.
"Hey, I've been standing here for quite some time, why hasn't it started yet?"
"Then it's coming? It's tied with a rope."
"It's always like this, huh? Isn't this the idiot's sister?"
"Didn't I hear that the idiot is very strong? How could he let his sister be captured?"
"What do you care? If you don't see him now, he probably won't survive."
"Well, what's the point of being so powerful? There are more than a hundred people patrolling around the village, not to mention the dozens of people the leader has around him, and there are also those who are guarding him. What kind of waves can a fool cause!"
"That's right."
"Ahem!" The middle-aged man was standing in front of the door. He coughed twice, and the whole place fell silent. Everyone looked at him, not daring to say anything.
The middle-aged man saw this and a hint of pride flashed across his eyes. After a moment of silence, he said loudly, "Everyone, I called you here today because I have two important things to announce. They not only concern me, but also everyone in our village!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked, but some people looked unconvinced, thinking that he would continue to talk nonsense about working harder.
The middle-aged man saw all of this, but his expression remained unchanged. He continued, "The first thing is that I want to stay with Miss Zhen as husband and wife."
"This is the best proof of our love, so..."
"Fuck your motherfucker!"
