Who exactly is the robber?
Chapter 720 Who exactly is the robber?
Hong Xiaoduo was quite surprised that the robbers in front of her were so pragmatic.
"You certainly know how to bend and stretch. We have no grudges against each other in the past, but if you beg for mercy and ask us to let you go, what about the people who died tragically under your blades before? They must have begged you to let them go before they died, right?"
Have you spared them? Are your lives worth anything, but the lives of those innocent people who died tragically are not?
I'm letting you go today out of kindness, but who knows how many more innocent people will die at your hands in the future.
Moreover, what exactly is it that makes you think I can let you off the hook?
"I'm not some monk in a temple who preaches equality for all beings and persuades evildoers to lay down their weapons and become Buddhas. If I let you go today, I'd be indulging in misplaced kindness and aiding and abetting evil." Hong Xiaoduo looked at the other party and sneered.
“So…” Scarface frowned, about to speak with a vicious glare.
"I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense and waste my time." As Tian Shu, holding the ring-handled sword, spoke, he also moved.
Tianji, Tianquan, and Yaoguang each wielded their own swords and charged forward.
Their knives were all different, custom-made by Hong Xiaoduo at the weapons shop. After all, they were still young, and knives of normal standard size and weight would definitely not be suitable for them.
Scarface watched as the four children charged straight at him without regard for anything else. He knew that if the four children were no match for him, the man on horseback would definitely intervene.
However, what he didn't know was that the children had already reached a tacit understanding in this situation and didn't need to speak up to choose a suitable target.
Their seemingly random positioning was actually a deliberate choice of their targets.
Although they all knew that appearances can be deceiving and that one could not judge an opponent's ability solely by their size or weapon, they could only make a rough selection.
Anyway, even if he was no match for his opponent, his companions wouldn't stand idly by, especially with his mother watching.
Scarface knew that he was unlikely to get through this safely. He regretted his carelessness. When his brothers returned and reported that the young woman on horseback and the driver of the carriage were both teenagers, and there seemed to be several children in the carriage, why didn't he think of the deadly demon?
Watching helplessly as the children charged forward without any fear, Scarface and his men had no choice but to fight back.
Over the years, they have killed quite a few children, so naturally they have no reason not to do it.
Once they started fighting, they became even more flustered. Despite their young age, these children were quick, steady, and ruthless in their moves.
But they knew that the most terrifying person was not these children, but the smiling girl on horseback, and the man who most resembled a martial arts master.
Furthermore, these children are completely different from the servants and guards they have encountered before; they are far more capable than those people.
That's right, they're following the Deadly Rakshasa, how could they not be powerful!
Tian Shu chose Scarface as his target for a simple reason: he was the boss, while Scarface was the leader of the gang of robbers, and Scarface also seemed to be the more powerful leader.
Tian Shu's judgment was correct. Scarface was indeed the most skilled among them, but that was only among his own group. He was struggling to fight Tian Shu, and in just a short time, he had already taken several cuts.
Although none of the injuries were fatal, they did affect his movements, making him feel increasingly strained and gradually finding it harder and harder to parry.
After being stabbed again in the right upper arm, Scarface staggered back several steps and inadvertently noticed his other brothers, who were also injured and at a disadvantage.
Scarface understood as well: it wasn't that these kids were incapable of killing them, but rather that they were doing it on purpose.
"Deadly Rakshasa, we're unlucky to have fallen into your hands, we admit defeat. Kill us if you want, but you let these kids toy with us like this, what kind of gentleman are you?" Scarface questioned the man on horseback. Huh? Hong Xiaoduo was also quite surprised; she never thought she'd be questioned like this by a villain: "Isn't 'gentleman' referring to men? Are you blind? I'm a woman!"
One more thing I want to clarify: they are not mocking you. Although many places are not peaceful, there are not robbers like you everywhere.
They're just kids, ambitious and energetic. It's rare to meet someone of your skill level, so they simply want to practice. Please understand.
Scarface was almost on the verge of a breakdown after hearing this. No one in his current situation could understand it!
"Big brother, why haven't you finished yet? Do you need any help?" Tianxuan asked loudly as he returned after finishing with his target.
"No!" Yao Guang, Tian Ji, and Tian Quan responded in unison, their voices somewhat urgent. The next moment, they each knocked their targets to the ground.
After Scarface was kicked to the ground by Tian Shu, he gave up struggling, stared at the sky without moving, and sighed. Whether he was dead or alive, it was finally over.
The other three, who had also fallen not far from him, saw that their leader had given up resisting and knew that it was all in vain. They had known all along that few people who made a living in this industry would end up with a bad ending, and this day would come sooner or later.
I never expected that I would be defeated not by chivalrous heroes, nor by the government, but by a bunch of brats.
It's done in such a humiliating way, like a hunter training his own children to hunt, but he's worried about their safety and stays by their side to protect them. If he senses that his children are in danger, he will immediately step in to help and save them!
Tianquan went to another car to find rope, and together with his elder brother, they helped their master tie up the six men, including the one with the scarred face.
"Bear with it, everyone. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild." One of them, seeing that they were only tied up, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to his companion.
The next moment, several boys came forward to search their bodies, not only snatching their purses but also pinching their belts and checking their undergarments.
So, he watched as the children retrieved the silver notes they had sewn into their belts, linings, or boots, and handed them to the older boy.
Those who make a living this way don't actually dare to put all their savings in one place.
They would not stay in one place permanently, so to be on the safe side, they would try to exchange the stolen goods for banknotes that could be exchanged in various places, and sew them into their belts, lapels, and other places.
It's just in case I'm ever unlucky, so I can carry my belongings with me and leave at any time.
Looking at the children's skillful movements, it was definitely not the first time they had done this!
The six robbers cursed under their breath again, wondering who the robbers were and who was robbing whom.
At this moment, they finally saw the deadly demon who had been on horseback dismount and walk towards them.
"I'll do it. You take them over there and wait for me. It'll be quick," Hong Xiaoduo said to Quan Jinghuai.
Upon hearing this, Quan Jinghuai walked towards the carriage, and Feiyan and the six children followed.
"Don't be nervous. If I really wanted to kill you all, I wouldn't have wasted a roll of rope," Hong Xiaoduo said, stepping forward to look at the six robbers tied together.
Scarface looked at Hong Xiaoduo warily and said, "What else do you want...?"
