Chapter 1773
Sword Manual
After Wang An finished speaking, Mu Xueli and Wang Li couldn't wait to bend down and start groping the two dead bodies.
To be honest, after all this trial and error, Mu Xueli and Wang Li actually figured out some useful things.
The most valuable thing is money; the two of them have a total of over 2,500 yuan in their pockets.
This shows that these people have very strong economic power, mainly because money has virtually no effect in these mountains, yet these people brought so much money into the mountains.
And it wasn't just the two of them; all twelve people who were killed by Wang An and his group were carrying a considerable amount of money.
Besides money, they also had some grain coupons and meat coupons, but these two types of coupons were of little use to Wang An and his three companions.
Besides the money and tickets, Wang Li also found four other throwing knives and a knife-throwing manual on the person who threw the knives.
Wang An took the knife manual and glanced at it, immediately developing a strong interest in this throwing knife manual.
Although throwing knives are not as fast as guns, and their power cannot be compared with that of guns, it must be admitted that if you master throwing knives, they are actually quite practical.
After all, guns can't be used indiscriminately, especially in big cities where gun control is extremely strict.
Throwing knives, on the other hand, have virtually no limitations. Moreover, there are many tools that can be used as substitutes for throwing knives, such as iron skewers, screws, steel balls, or even pebbles and clods of dirt. As long as you throw them accurately, they can all be used as weapons.
Looking at the score on the cloth, Wang An couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Fourth Brother, what is this? Is it a treasure map?" Wang Li asked, noticing Wang An's excited expression.
Wang An said without looking up:
"Where did those treasure maps come from? This is a sword manual, a sword manual for practicing throwing knives."
Upon hearing this, Wang Li blinked and said with considerable disdain:
"A sword manual? And a throwing knife manual at that? Oh my god, what's the use of this thing?"
As he spoke, Wang Li pointed to the corpse of the boy who had thrown the knife on the ground and said with a look of disdain:
"Fourth Brother, I'm not bragging at all. Take this kid, for example. If I let three guys like him come at me at once, and then I just grab a Type 54 pistol, I can take care of them all, you believe me? I'll make sure they can't even pull out their knives."
It must be admitted that Wang Li is indeed a sharpshooter. In addition, Wang An taught him how to draw and fire quickly, so it can be said that Wang Li's speed and accuracy in drawing and firing a gun are second only to Wang An.
If Wang Li had been more diligent and continued practicing drawing his gun and shooting, his current rapid-fire level might have been the same as Wang An's, or even surpassed it.
After all, there is a big difference between genius and talent. Wang An is a talent who practices hard in marksmanship, while Wang Li is a true genius. So it is normal that Wang Li's marksmanship will eventually surpass Wang An's.
Therefore, Wang Li wasn't just bragging when he said that, because with his abilities, he really could do it.
However, after Wang Li finished speaking, Wang An still gave him a disgruntled look and said:
"You're always showing off, but what if you don't have a gun? What if you have a gun but no bullets? Damn, this guy acts all high and mighty, like he's some kind of genius."
After saying that, Wang An pointed at Wang Li and said, "From now on, you better learn to be more humble, or I'll kick you to death."
Wang Li chuckled and then fell silent, looking rather dejected.
Given Wang Li's marksmanship, he certainly wouldn't need to be lenient with anyone when he has a gun. But as Wang An said, what if he doesn't have a gun, or what if he has a gun but no bullets?
In that situation, what good is it if you're a master marksman?
Wang An carefully put away the six throwing knives and the knife manual, planning to practice them properly when he had free time back home.
As the saying goes, "It's never a bad thing to have many skills," and you never know when this might come in handy.
Afterwards, Wang An put the money and tickets away again. Seeing that Mu Xueli and Wang Li each took a watch from the wrists of the two men, and finding them worthless, he said:
"Let's split the money when we get back. Let's pack up these two 56-and-a-half cars, then quickly dispose of these two bodies and leave immediately."
Three minutes later, Wang An and his three companions watched expressionlessly as the two corpses slowly sank into the mud of the swamp, then turned and walked back.
It must be said that swamps are the perfect place to dispose of a corpse. You don't have to worry about the body being discovered later, which truly embodies the meaning of "destroying the body and covering up the evidence".
Ignoring the two horses the two men had ridden, Wang An and his companions reattached the ginseng buns, gold, and luggage to the horses and continued northwest.
On the way, Mu Xueli asked Wang An with considerable concern:
"Brother-in-law, do you think those people might come after us? They look like they're not someone to mess with."
Wang An shook his head and said nonchalantly:
"It's alright, don't worry. Didn't you see the expression on that kid's face when we were talking just now? They had no idea we killed all their people before. Now that they're dead too, there's no way to prove anything."
After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li suddenly said with lingering fear:
"Luckily, we didn't get greedy and take those 12 horses with us. If we had those horses now, we would be in big trouble."
Mu Xueli nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly, and said:
"Yeah, if my brother-in-law hadn't stopped me, I really would have liked to get two horses to take home and raise. Those horses were really good, almost as good as my brother-in-law's eldest son's horse."
Wang Li continued:
"What are you saying? Who wouldn't want those horses? They're big and strong. If my fourth brother hadn't stopped me, I would have liked to get two for home too."
Wang An interrupted the two men, saying:
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking about this useless stuff. What's the point of bringing this up? If someone hears about it, we'll be in trouble again."
For some reason, Wang An had a feeling that the road ahead would not be peaceful. Although he had already killed the two men and dumped their bodies in the swamp, given their fighting skills and methods, they were unlikely to let the matter rest.
Therefore, Wang An felt it was best not to mention that group of people. If someone hiding somewhere overheard it and it eventually reached the ears of those people, then Wang An and his companions' journey home would truly become a journey of escape.
After Wang An finished speaking, Mu Xueli and Wang Li looked at Wang An's rather serious and thoughtful face, and immediately shut up.
Perhaps because they took a detour, Wang An and his companions didn't encounter any more gold prospectors appearing from various places that afternoon. (End of Chapter)
