Chapter 413: Sacrificing the Death Town?
"Since you refuse to hand over that thing, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
The leader's voice was full of coldness and cruelty, and he waved his hand, signaling for the others to take action.
"ah!!!"
Suddenly, two men wearing coarse cloths, holding large knives, rushed towards the injured Wu Daotong in front of him. Their movements were fast and fierce, as if they wanted to cut Wu Daotong into two pieces.
Faced with this sudden attack, although Wu Daotong had wounds on his body, he was not knocked down by the pain. He reacted quickly and nimbly avoided the swords struck by the two men.
"Ok?"
The two men in coarse cloth looked at Wu Daotong in surprise. They did not expect that Wu Daotong, who was already injured, could dodge their attacks so quickly.
However, they did not give up but continued to hold the sword in their hands more firmly, preparing to launch a fierce attack on Wu Daotong again.
This time, the two of them changed their strategy and decided to cut across the middle. Although their swords were slower this time, they still had a frightening power.
Wu Daotong was keenly aware of this opportunity. He saw the opportunity and waved the short knife in his hand, stabbing the arms of the two men like a bolt of lightning.
His swordsmanship is sharp and accurate, and every blow is aimed at the opponent's weak point.
"Puff...Puff...Puff..."
With the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh, the two men wearing coarse cloth groaned in pain. Their arms were stabbed by Wu Daotong's short knife, and blood suddenly spurted out.
Their bodies swayed and they could no longer maintain their balance.
The leader nodded to the others, who immediately understood. Their sword moves changed, and their men sped up the attack. They also waved their own weapons and attacked Wu Daotong.
Wu Daotong gritted his teeth tightly. His body had been shaken by the opponent's attack, but he had no intention of flinching.
"Dangdangdangdang..."
The collision of swords kept ringing. Although Wu Daotong's moves were exquisite, he gradually felt powerless in the face of the siege of many people. His breathing was rapid and sweat kept dripping from his forehead, but he still persisted and refused to take it easy. give up.
Wu Daotong's body had retreated to the door. He knew that he had reached his limit, but he did not choose to surrender. On the contrary, he decided to give it a try.
He took a deep breath and concentrated all his strength on the short knife in his hand, preparing to launch the final blow.
"bring it on!"
Wu Daotong roared angrily, and stabbed the opponent with the short knife in his hand like lightning.
Several people on the other side were startled by Wu Daotong's sudden counterattack. They did not expect that Wu Daotong could launch such a sharp attack when he was so exhausted.
They all dodged, but the short knife in Wu Daotong's hand had already locked onto the leader among them.
"asshole!!"
The leader knew that Wu Daotong's blow seemed to repay his determination to die, and he planned to die with him. There was a trace of fear in his eyes.
At the critical moment, the leader reached out and pulled a subordinate next to him, blocking him entirely in front of him.
The subordinate did not expect that he would be pulled up and blocked in front of the leader, using his own body to block Wu Daotong's attack for the leader.
"Puff!" There was a muffled sound.
The short knife in Wu Daotong's hand pierced the chest of the subordinate. The subordinate who was pulled by the leader to block the front fell to the ground in horror, and the blood quickly stained the ground red.
This scene happened so fast that no one had time to react. The subordinate's body fell to the ground, his eyes filled with pain and unwillingness.
He originally just wanted to follow in the footsteps of the leader, but he didn't expect to end his life in this way.
But in this blow, Wu Daotong had already used all his strength. He originally planned to die together with the leader, but he didn't expect that the leader would actually pull someone into his hand to block this fatal blow for him. one strike.
"what!"
With a scream, Wu Daotong was hit by a sword in the chest and fell to the ground.
He felt a sharp pain coming over him, as if countless sharp knives were stabbing his heart. He fell limply to the ground, and blood continued to gush out from the wound, staining the surrounding land red.
The leader looked at Wu Daotong's painful expression with a sneer, without any mercy. His eyes were cold and ruthless, as if it was his mission to treat the enemy.
"Do you think you can die with me? You are so naive!"
"How about it, Wu Daotong, do you still want to resist?"
The leader's voice was full of threats and ridicule. He raised the sword in his hand, followed closely, placed the sharp blade across Wu Daotong's neck, and said coldly.
Wu Daotong was not afraid. He sneered and jumped up suddenly. His eyes flashed with determination, as if he was prepared for the worst.
"Pfft..."
There was a sharp sound of piercing flesh and blood, and a stream of blood spurted out from Wu Daotong's neck like a fountain. His entire body instantly lost strength and he fell heavily to the ground dead.
This scene happened so suddenly that people couldn't help but gasp.
Wu Daotong's death was like a bolt of lightning piercing the dark night sky, which chilled people's hearts.
At this time, the leader's face changed slightly, he put away his sword, and gave instructions to the men beside him.
"Search his body to see if that thing is on him?"
"Yes!"
One of his subordinates heard the sound and immediately replied, reaching out and searching Wu Daotong's body, and then shook his head at everyone.
The leader suddenly frowned, feeling uneasy in his heart.
Because he knew the importance of this task and the consequences would be disastrous if he couldn't find that thing, he took a deep breath to try to calm down the tension in his heart.
"Continue the search! Check his clothes, shoes, and belongings carefully. Don't miss any possible hiding places!"
The leader ordered.
The men acted quickly. They carefully took off Wu Daotong's clothes one by one and carefully inspected every inch of skin and every pocket. However, they still found no clues.
The leader's anxiety gradually escalated, and he began to doubt his own judgment. Could it be that the thing was not on Wu Daotong?Or has he hidden it very cleverly?
"That thing may be hidden in his home. Let's go to his home to search."
Suddenly, the leader who wanted to understand this gave an order to the men around him without hesitation.
"Yes!"
The men nodded one after another, answered immediately, and then quickly left with the leader.
Everything happened so suddenly. Most people in the inn were stunned by this scene. It wasn't until those people left that they realized what happened one by one.
"Killed! Killed!"
Customers who are timid have already screamed, but such customers are in the minority after all, because besides these people, there are other people in the inn, but most of the customers are still sitting there chewing slowly as if there is nothing wrong with them. None of it happened.
For a moment, the entire inn fell into chaos, and screams of terror echoed in the air of the inn, making people shudder.
Some timid guests fled the scene one after another, looking for safe shelter in a panic. Their faces were full of fear and anxiety, and their footsteps hurriedly stepped on the ground, making noisy sounds.
However, there were some guests who kept their cool and sat there eating and drinking their food.
"Stop arguing, things like this happen every day in this world, haven't you seen enough?"
The innkeeper shook his head and sighed, as if it had nothing to do with him.
His eyes revealed a deep exhaustion and helplessness, as if he had become numb to the indifference and cruelty of the world.
At this moment, Xu Xingchen and Ma Chunhua were both curious, so they called the waiter aside and asked.
"Xiaoer, why are the people here so indifferent? Don't they even care about killing people?"
Although Xu Xingchen was already used to it, this place was a bit weird after all. There was a bloody side to people killing people in full view of the public.
Some people can actually eat their own food with peace of mind, which makes Xu Xingchen very curious.
At this time, the waiter looked at Xu Xingchen and Ma Chunhua up and down and said.
"The two guest officials and their wife must be from other places, right?"
"No wonder I don't know. To tell the truth to the two guests, this place is called [Death Sacrifice Town]. It's not normal for several people to die every day. It's like offering sacrifices."
"Otherwise, everyone will be on tenterhooks, fearing that their two guests and his wife will be affected. You see, another one died today, so everyone can feel relieved and have survived another day."
Ma Chunhua, who was hiding behind Xu Xingchen, heard the waiter in the shop call herself and Xu Xingchen "the couple of guest officers", a blush appeared on her delicate face, and she said coquettishly.
"Xiaoer, you...you..."
Ma Chunhua wanted to scold the famous waiter for talking nonsense, but she didn't want to say that, so she had to pout her cherry lips and pretend to be angry.
But Ma Chunhua was still a little curious about why this town was called [Death Festival Town] and asked softly.
"Xiao Er, why is this place called [Death-Sacrifice Town]? Isn't there a government office here?"
"Looking at those people just now, they look like people from the Jianghu. They are acting so arbitrarily here. Aren't they afraid of the government?"
"Pfft..."
Unexpectedly, after hearing what Ma Chunhua said, the famous waiter couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Then the waiter felt that he had lost his composure in front of the customers, so he came back to his senses and continued.
"Government? Where did the government come from? There are only a few gangs in this small town. You kill me every day, and I kill yours. Whoever has the best martial arts skills is the boss."
