Chapter 7 Bandit
As the saying goes, hard work pays off, and Xiong Shaolong's efforts in the past two days finally paid off.

In the early morning in the mountains and forests, the air was filled with the smell of humidity and decaying plants. After a night's rest, the caravan members continued on their way in a daze. At this time, they were already halfway to the distance from Lanxin City. .

Zhu Youchen leaned against the cargo box, looking like he had just woken up. In fact, he had been secretly practicing Jiu Hong Jue for the past two nights.

Like him, there was Xiong Shaolong, but the difference was that Xiong Shaolong sat upright that night and practiced extremely seriously.

Breathing the fresh air in the mountains and forests, Zhu Youchen couldn't help but begin to imagine his life after going to Lanxin City.

Having lived in Yanshan Town since he was a child, he had no idea what Lanxin City looked like and had no idea of ​​what a so-called big city looked like.

While Zhu Youchen was thinking about this, Xiong Shaolong, who was practicing on the side, suddenly opened his eyes and said in surprise: "It's successful, it's finally successful, idiot Chen, I feel the magic power——!"

"Oh." Zhu Youchen replied calmly.

"..." Xiong Shaolong's forehead went dark, and he was really angry.

This is also the main reason why he has been unhappy with Zhu Youchen since he was a child. There is no way, for a person who loves to show off and be arrogant, people like Zhu Youchen are simply designed to disgust him.

When I was a kid, if there was something delicious and fun to eat, my friends in the town would always show various expressions of envy.

But Zhu Youchen was the only one who didn't react at all, which made Xiong Shaolong very unhappy.

"Hey, did you hear what I was saying? Do you understand that this young master feels the magic power?" Xiong Shaolong emphasized again.

"I'm not deaf." Zhu Youchen glanced and said expressionlessly: "If you feel the magic power, just continue practicing. Is there any need to make such a fuss?"

"..." Xiong Shaolong was speechless again. It took him a long time to organize his words, and said with a frantic look: "You also want to be a puppet master, okay? Don't you want to ask me for advice? Don't worry, as long as you are sincere Please tell me, I don’t mind sharing my experience with you. After all, I can learn Jiu Hongjue in advance, so I can be considered as having benefited from you."

But Zhu Youchen looked sleepy and yawned, "Okay, then tell me, what does it feel like to feel magic?"

"I'll go, is this your attitude to ask for advice?" Xiong Shaolong was a little dissatisfied, but when he thought of Zhu Youchen's virtues since he was a child, he didn't struggle anymore, and then he shared it with Zhu Youchen with great interest: "I tell you , now I just need to close my eyes, calm down, and then run the Jiu Hong Jue, and I can feel the magic power of the little stars around me."

"Really?" Zhu Youchen frowned slightly, and couldn't help but feel a little doubtful: "Are you sure it's the magic power of the little bits and pieces?"

"Why are you lying to me?" Xiong Shaolong said proudly, "It feels like the fireflies in our back mountain at night in summer."

Zhu Youchen nodded expressionlessly, but something strange couldn't help but feel in his heart.

Because the magic power he felt while practicing was not a speck of light at all, but a dense blur, and no specks of magic power could be seen at all.

When he saw that Xiong Shaolong couldn't feel the magic power for such a long time, he felt a little strange. Now after such a comparison, Zhu Youchen could finally confirm that his cultivation effects were different from others, at least completely different from Xiong Shaolong's.

Of course, he would not tell Xiong Shaolong this, after all, Xiong Shaolong still didn’t know that he had separated from the First Demon Puppet.

Just when Zhu Youchen wanted to continue asking for some details, an inexplicable sense of crisis suddenly came to his heart.

Immediately afterwards, a series of whizzing arrows were heard.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
All of a sudden, the horses started to stir, and Boss Liu in the carriage ahead also started to panic.

Seeing an arrow flying towards them, Zhu Youchen pushed Xiong Shaolong's head down.

boom!
The moment he pressed it down, an arrow hit the cargo box at the back.

Xiong Shaolong, who was still having fun just now, was so frightened that he wet his buttocks, "Let me strangle you, what's going on?"

Zhu Youchen was unusually calm, staring at the direction of the arrow, and slowly took out the butcher's knife that his father left for him from the package.

"It's over, it's over, it seems that we encountered bandits!" Boss Liu's face was extremely ugly. "Grandma, there are no bandits on this road, isn't it?"

Xiong Ba on the side was also frightened, and said with a pale face: "It's over, it's over, what should we do?"

At the same time, following a wave of arrows, dozens of bandits wearing tree branches and grass clothing rushed out of the dense forest and quickly surrounded the caravan.

"Hahaha, let me tell you, why can't I catch a single fish during this period? It turns out that they all ran to this road."

Immediately afterwards, a fierce-looking man with scars on his face came out, carrying a big knife, glanced at Boss Liu's several carts of goods, and showed a satisfied smile.

"Sir, I wonder which village you belong to?" Boss Liu suppressed the panic in his heart and stepped forward with a smile.

"Do you think I'm stupid? I told you that you are from that village. After you go back, you are not allowed to find officers and soldiers to kill you?" The scarred man sneered disdainfully: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't want to die, just hand over the goods honestly, thief I can spare your life."

"..." Boss Liu suddenly fell into a tangle. He had no choice but to hand over all of his goods. If he really wanted to hand them over, his work would have been in vain in the past few years. "Mr. Thief, can you hand over half of it?" ?”

"Hey~ It looks like this batch of goods is very valuable?" The scarred man was obviously an old man. Seeing Boss Liu's reaction, he immediately realized that he had caught a big fish this time. In this case, it was even more impossible. He let them go easily, "Young boys, teach them a lesson, so that they won't be ignorant." After hearing the scarred man's order, the bandits on the side rushed forward and chopped down one of them without saying a word. Caravan members.

For a moment, everyone in the caravan was so frightened that they could not speak. Xiong Shaolong was even more frightened and did not dare to move.

In the entire caravan, Zhu Youchen was the only one with a calm face. This bloody scene did not affect him at all. Just kidding, he was a professional butcher. Although killing people was different from killing pigs, for Zhu Youchen who had no emotions, it did not matter. Big difference.

"It's over, it's over, we won't die here this time, right?" Xiong Shaolong was lying on the car, too scared to raise his head.

"Don't talk." Zhu Youchen reminded in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Xiong Shaolong immediately shut up obediently. Even he himself didn't know why he was so obedient.

At this moment, on Boss Liu's side, seeing a brother being killed, he was also terrified, but because the goods were too precious, he was still in a state of entanglement.

Seeing that Boss Liu still refused to give up, the scarred man didn't waste any words. With a glance, he killed another caravan member in front of everyone.

"This boss should also be a sensible person, whether you want goods or your life, you can figure it out for yourself." The scarred man said jokingly.

They also have rules for being bandits. Generally speaking, they follow the principle of not killing if they can, not because they still have a trace of kindness in their hearts, but simply because these merchants are their "food and clothing". "Parents", killing one and losing the other is just like fishermen releasing small fish after catching fish.

That's what they say, but when they encounter uninformed businessmen, they will never be merciful.

No, seeing that Boss Liu didn't respond for a long time, the scarred man gradually lost his patience and directly ordered with an impatient look: "Damn, the thief has no time to waste time with you, you guys, come on, Be careful not to hurt my horse!"

The scarred man gave the order, and dozens of bandits immediately attacked the caravan like a carnival.

"Don't, don't, don't, I'll hand it over... I'll hand it over, okay?" Boss Liu almost cried and said it. Unfortunately, it was too late. The bandits were too lazy to pay attention to him and started massacring them directly.

There were only a dozen people in the entire caravan. They were no match for dozens of bandits. In less than a moment, everyone in the caravan was defeated.

At this moment, Zhu Youchen finally took action, not because he deliberately waited until now to take action, but mainly because he had just separated the first demon puppet and was not familiar with controlling the puppet yet.

boom!
A bandit who slashed at Zhu Youchen with a knife was instantly blown away. The sudden change surprised everyone, including the bandits headed by Scar Man.

"What the hell?!" The scarred man's face darkened, and his cold gaze instantly locked on Zhu Youchen.

At this moment, a dark red figure appeared in front of Zhu Youchen, with dark red soul guidance flowing on his fingertips.

The man with the scar can be regarded as someone who has seen the world, so he naturally knew what it was, and his face became incredulous for a moment: "Damn, why is there a puppeteer?!"

If it's just an ordinary person, then it's okay to kill him, but if he's a puppet master, the situation is different.

"Boss, what should I do? That boy seems to be a puppet master." The bandit boys nearby also asked in panic.

"Looking at him, he should be just a little kid who just separated from the first demon. Don't care, just kill him! Don't leave anyone alive!" The scarred man gritted his teeth suddenly, swung the big knife in his hand, and took the lead in killing him. Got Zhu Youchen.

At this time, everyone in the caravan was also startled by Zhu Youchen's sudden release of the demon puppet, especially Xiong Ba and Xiong Shaolong, their father and son, who were even more confused and couldn't believe their eyes.

Unfortunately, before they could ask what was going on, Scar Man had already led a group of bandits to kill them.

When Zhu Youchen saw this, he frowned slightly, but he was calm in his heart. His thoughts moved slightly, the soul guide on his fingertips flickered, and the burly man immediately rushed forward like a bull.

boom! boom! boom!
In front of Da Zhuang, the poor thieves are just like children in front of adults.

However, three punches are difficult to beat with four hands. No matter how strong Da Zhuang is, he can only fight one by one, but there are dozens of bandits.

"Why are you still standing there? Kill that kid quickly!" The scarred man struggled to resist Da Zhuang's fierce attack, and a mouthful of blood was already flowing out of his mouth from Da Zhuang's arrogant power.

Facing several bandits coming to attack him, Zhu Youchen didn't show any panic on his face. He held a butcher's knife and circled around the goods in the car to fight with the bandits.

Although his physical fitness is good, compared with this gang of vicious bandits, he is still far behind.

In less than a moment, he was slashed on the back, and while he was being slashed, the Jiu Hong Jue in his body began to operate on its own, temporarily stabilizing the injury.

At the same time, Zhu Youchen could also clearly feel that when the knife struck him just now, an invisible force took away a lot of the force, so the wound on his back was not deep.

Zhu Youchen was not sure at first, but when the bandits attacked him later, he was sure that there was indeed an inexplicable force protecting him.

Although he still doesn't know what this force is, what is certain is that he can completely fight with his hands and feet.

At the same time, the scarred man had also been kicked away by Da Zhuang and hit a tree in the distance. The whole man had completely lost his previous arrogance.
