Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 283
Li Xiuyuan's sudden arrival rescued the third sister fox, and at the same time temporarily stopped these hunters from killing the fox spirit.

But it was only temporarily stopped. These hunters did not leave just because of his few words, but because of Third Sister Fox, they became united and surrounded him with knives and forks and hunting bows. stand up.

"This fox spirit can't be let go. If she escapes, your children and future generations will be killed by this fox spirit." The old hunter who was shot by the arrow said in pain, gritting his teeth while covering his wound.

After being shot by Li Xiuyuan's Black Flood Dragon Bow with an arrow, the arm bone will continue to crack. This kind of injury can mean that the old Orion's arm is basically useless in the future. .

"You're right. This fox spirit can't be let go. This fox spirit called this man brother-in-law. I don't think this man is a serious person. We can't stop."

"There is still a nest of foxes inside. You can tell by the sound. If you kill this fox, at least each of us will get three or four taels of silver. How can we give up the meat when it's on our lips."

"I advise you to leave that fox spirit, otherwise we will deal with you as well."

These hunters pressed on every step of the way, united together, and surrounded them viciously, trying to hunt and kill Third Sister Hu.

The third sister Hu trembled when she felt those vicious eyes, she just looked at Li Xiuyuan with a pitiful pleading, she just hoped that Li Xiuyuan would protect her and not give herself to these hunters.

But she couldn't guarantee it. After all, Mr. Li was just a mortal, a scholar, so how could he deal with so many hunters?
Li Xiuyuan looked calm at this moment, looked at these hunters and said: "I am not a ghost, I am a boy from Guo Beicheng, and a scholar with a reputation. If you murder me, you will commit a capital crime. If you are caught, you will be cut off by the officials." head off."

student?
These hunters suddenly became astonished, and subconsciously stopped.

A scholar is helping an official, and killing an official is tantamount to rebellion. Killing a scholar is nothing but beheading.

For a while, the hunters hesitated.

Li Xiuyuan said again: "I hope today's matter ends here. I can assure you that Third Sister Hu will not retaliate against you in the future, nor will she retaliate against your children and relatives. If you leave them a way out, I will also leave you one." Shenglu, those who are willing to leave today, I can give you five taels of silver as compensation, what do you think?"

After speaking, he took out an ingot of 50 taels of silver from his pocket, which was enough compensation for ten people.

This move is to prove that he has the ability to compensate these hunters, not just lip service.

Orion turned his eyes and said, "The compensation of five taels of silver is too little, at least 50 taels, 50 taels per person."

"That's right, at least 50 taels per person. You are not short of money. I believe this amount of money is no problem for you."

"Yes, 50 taels per person."

Being led by a greedy hunter, these hunters became greedy and asked Li Xiuyuan to pay 50 taels of compensation, so that they would give up today's hunting.

Li Xiuyuan frowned and said: "You have to know that five taels of silver is already the greatest compensation for you, and if you add one tael to your virtue, you are not worthy of it, let alone 50 taels, and you lions are asking for it!" What about money and robbery?"

"Robbery? You scholar is right, we are robbery."

The Orion who offered a price of 50 taels grinned, took out a dagger from his pocket, and walked towards Li Xiuyuan.

"I've noticed you, scholar, for a long time. You are wearing high-quality su brocade. A foot of cloth like this can be sold for at least ten taels of silver in a cloth store. You are so rich. Being you today is better than catching hundreds of them." It’s a fox, and here in the wilderness, who would know if they robbed and killed you.”

After finishing speaking, the hunter said to his companions: "God gave us a chance to make a fortune tonight. Do you want to hunt for the rest of your life, or do you want to eat and drink spicy food from now on? If you dare to do something, come with me." I ransacked this scholar, regardless of whether he is a man or a demon, anyway, I think he has a lot of money on him, and I guarantee that we will all get rich."

As soon as these words came out, the other people were also tempted, and one by one they had evil thoughts towards Li Xiuyuan.

For a moment, their target shifted from Sanjie Hu to Li Xiuyuan.

The old hunter was shocked and said: "It is only right and proper for us to hunt foxes. Even if we are called cruel, we have a clear conscience. Instead of hunting foxes, you are going to kill and rob. This is what robbers do." Ah, there will be retribution."

"Old man, don't you hate him when he shot your arm with a bow just now?" someone asked.

The old hunter said: "My ruthlessness is only towards the prey in the mountains. How dare the wild fox be so cruel to people? He hurt my arm because he and this fox are relatives. To save his relatives, he had to hurt others. It’s a very moral thing, I hurt his fox spirit relative and now he hurts his arm, this is retribution, I don’t blame him, please stop, murder is a capital crime.”

"Old man, you talk a lot of nonsense. Since you don't want to make this money, then don't blame us for not giving you a share." The Orion who took the lead said fiercely: "Do it, and this scholar is the end."

"Want money? It's interesting. Anyone who is not afraid of death will come. The money is in my hands. If you have the ability, you can come and get it."

Li Xiuyuan held an ingot of silver, gestured to them, and then put it in his arms again. Although he didn't have a sharp weapon in his hand, he was not afraid of these dozen or so well-equipped hunters.

As a master of martial arts, if he can't even deal with a dozen robbers, then his ten years of martial arts training will be in vain.

"Hey~!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a hunting bow in the hand of a hunter suddenly shot an arrow, heading straight for him.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes were fixed, and he stretched out his hand to catch the arrow in the air, and he had already held the arrow in his hand.

"Take the arrow empty-handed? What kind of skill is this?" Many people were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

They don't have enough knowledge, they just heard about some ancient fierce generals from the mouth of the storyteller, fighting on the battlefield, they can catch the back arrow with a single grasp, and then break it and throw it on the ground.

I originally applauded when I heard this passage of Xiwen, but when it was my turn to see this scene with my own eyes, I found that I couldn't applaud.

In fact, it is not difficult to snatch an arrow with bare hands. It can be done with eyesight, hand speed, and strength.

And the characters of martial arts masters all have such vision, hand speed and strength.

To shoot a person with such martial arts skills as Li Xiuyuan, it would take at least a three-stone bow to do it.

Since ancient times, we have heard of the fierce generals who were besieged and killed by the rebellious army, the fierce generals who were assassinated by surprise attacks, and never heard of the fierce generals who died under the arrows. dead.

Orion's bow doesn't even have the strength of a single stone, so it's very difficult to shoot Li Xiuyuan first, unless there are enough of them.

"I've said it before, if you let the vixen here live, I will let you live. You don't pay attention to the compensation of five taels of silver, but you want to take my life. You are no longer Orion is gone, but a group of robbers, thieves, my methods have always been very ruthless when dealing with robbers and thieves."

Li Xiuyuan's gaze became sharp.

It is justifiable for a hunter to hunt a fox, but it is unforgivable for a robber to murder someone for money.

He pointed to the hunter who was shooting arrows and said, "Xing Shan, I want his arrow to pierce his heart and die."

"Hey~!"

The voice fell, and an arrow appeared out of thin air, but the Orion's body shook, and then he screamed and was directly shot through the heart by a thick arrow, nailed to the ground, and the body fell limply.

"Young Master, you should wait for a while, your horse's speed has already surpassed the speed of a fox fairy flying through the clouds and fog."

A deep voice sounded, but a tall, somewhat thin man with slender arms came out from the path of the ruined temple with a big bow nearly one person's height in his hand.

"Is that also called Tengyun Riding Mist? It's more or less called Climbing Clouds."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "My father-in-law's speed is getting slower and slower. I don't know if it's because of lack of energy. If I don't know how many foxes have died when he arrives, I can't wait and can only take a step first."

After speaking, he looked at the sky.

Suddenly, a rain cloud floated over the space, and the heavy rain poured down, which immediately extinguished the fire in the ruined temple.

Hu Han's figure was faintly revealed in the clouds.

Seeing that one of his accomplices had been shot dead, the remaining hunters screamed angrily and rushed towards Xing Shan holding a knife and fork.

Now that he had a malicious intention and was discovered by others, he had no choice but to go to the end. At this time, he stopped, and was sued by the scholar, and he would not be able to survive the lawsuit.

"These people don't deserve the young master's sympathy, they should be killed."

Xing Shan drank a sentence, his hands seemed to be juggling, the big bow in his hand opened again and again, and arrows flew out one by one, and the time before and after was only a moment.

A big bow is like a crossbow in his hand, it can't stop.

"Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!"

The arrows pierced through the bodies of these hunters and shot them all through. The arrows were nailed to the ground with scarlet blood.

The Orions held their necks in disbelief, gurgling blood, and fell to the ground.

Xing Shan shot and killed these hunters without blinking his eyes, as if he had just killed a few cattle and sheep, his sharp eyes turned to the remaining hunters.

Seeing this scene, the hunters have long been terrified. How can they deal with such a terrifying archery skill.

"Run."

Who knows who yelled, and the rest of the hunters immediately dispersed and fled in all directions.

"Kneel down and surrender without dying, and those who run away will be killed immediately." Li Xiuyuan said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, some hunters knelt on the ground in fright, while some hunters did not believe in evil and tried to escape.

"It's said that you can't die if you kneel down and surrender, and you dare to run away. I'm already lonely with my big sword." Wu Fei touched his big bald head, holding the waist knife, and walked out with a grinning smile. He stabbed a hunter who was about to escape. .

The knife was fierce, and the man's head was cut off with one knife.

The murderous nature of this executioner was exposed, which made people shudder.
