Yang Ji's reaction was too fast, so fast that he didn't give them the slightest chance to take advantage of him.
"You want to die too?"
Yang Ji said coldly.
The three of them sweated more and wanted to say something, but their lips trembled and they were too frightened to speak. The others were not much better.
Before this operation, their understanding of Yang Ji was limited to "a guy who doesn't understand current affairs", but when Zhou Kuang fell, everyone felt a strong breath of death.
As long as Yang Ji is willing, he can kill everyone present.
"So, you really think so?"
Yang Ji said calmly.
"No...it's not..."
The three people's voices trembled and they were about to cry.
Although they are impulsive, they are not stupid. This action is a grudge between Zhou Kuang and Yang Ji. If they are killed, they will be just accomplices.
There is no need to bury yourself in other people's grudges.
Yang Ji said nothing, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
For a long time, I just listened to Yang Jidao, "I just want to ask you one question, how did you find me?"
Although he was asking the three people in front of him, everyone felt that Yang Ji was talking about themselves.
"Yang Yong! It was Yang Yong who said it. He told Boss Zhou... Zhou Kuang, you are here and gave us ten taels of silver."
Under the big tree beside the road, a gangster who was breathing three times said in a trembling voice. His throat was dry and his face was as pale as a dead fish.
"Yang Yong? It's actually him!..."
Yang Ji's eyes felt cold.
The dispute with Yang Yong had been going on for a long time, so much so that Yang Ji almost forgot about him. Unexpectedly, he was actually planning this.
Although it was unexpected, if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising at all given his character.
"It seems that the lesson learned last time was too light."
Yang Ji said coldly in his heart.
His heart moved, and he suddenly turned around and searched Zhou Kuang's body. Sure enough, he found a money bag containing eight or nine pieces of broken silver and a lot of copper. After counting, it was not too much or not, exactly ten taels.
.
"For ten taels of silver, he is really bleeding."
Yang Ji sneered in his heart.
A large clan adheres to rules in everything they do. Although Yang Yong has a higher status than him in the clan and receives better treatment, his monthly salary will never exceed two taels.
In addition, he spends a lot of money every month, leaving little left.
Ten taels of silver, I'm afraid he didn't know how long he had saved up. In order to deal with him, he also spent a lot of money. You must know that the expenses of Yang Ji and the old housekeeper for two months in the cold winter were only more than two taels of silver in total!
Yang Ji's life has always been in straits, but now that Yang Yong paid Zhou Kuang the ten taels of silver, he got an unexpected huge sum of money.
"If Yang Yong knew that I got his money, he would be furious."
Yang Ji sneered in his heart:
"With this money, at least I won't have to worry about food and clothing for a long time in the future. Even if the clan deducts my silver, it won't matter."
Yang Ji thought for a moment, plus the money he gave to the old housekeeper before, he now has enough money to support them for a year.
In this way, he can concentrate on learning martial arts during this year.
"However, we still have to find another way to deal with the training resources."
Yang Ji's thoughts changed and he looked at the gangsters again.
"I want you to tell Yang Yong everything about today, including Zhou Kuang's death, word for word!"
Yang Ji suddenly said.
ah?!
When a group of gangsters heard Yang Ji's words, they were all dumbfounded and couldn't react in their minds. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, private killings were strictly punished. So after they killed someone, they tried their best to hide the information and evidence.
Who would take the initiative to expose it like Yang Ji?
"If I tell you to do it, just do it!"
Yang Ji said coldly, without explaining at all, "In addition, from now on, as long as I see you again, or hear a little bit of news about today from anywhere else, how did Zhou Kuang die?"
Yes, you should know..."
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. At this time, they also vaguely understood Yang Ji's thoughts. They immediately agreed and agreed, fearing that Yang Ji would kill them all if he was displeased.
"Now, you can take your people and get out."
Yang Ji said coldly and put away his bow and arrows.
After all, he is not a murderous person. Zhou Kuang's culprit has been killed, and the remaining people are irrelevant. There is no need to kill more people.
When everyone heard Yang Ji's words, they all felt as if they had been given an imperial edict and dared not say more. They lifted up Zhou Kuang's body, supported each other, and rolled away, fearing that Yang Ji would regret it if they walked too slowly.
…………
After solving the problems of these gangsters, Yang Ji walked alone on the mountain road, but his heart could not calm down.
In this battle, although he made a breakthrough before the battle and understood the principles of martial arts, fighting one against many almost exhausted his strength.
If he hadn't happened to be carrying a bow and arrows, and with Zhou Kuang's preparations and the thirteen skilled gangsters, he might have been the one who fell here today.
This incident deeply touched Yang Ji.
A person will not always be lucky. This time, he only escaped disaster because he learned archery in advance. However, bows and arrows are not omnipotent. If someone like Zhou Kuang is well prepared, he only has two chances to shoot arrows.
Zhou Kuang is just a small gangster from Pingchuan County. If he meets other powerful people, the consequences can be imagined.
"The role of external objects like bows and arrows cannot be ignored, but the key is my own strength. If I want to avoid this situation happening again today, I must improve my strength as soon as possible!"
Yang Ji secretly thought. Somewhere in his mind, he thought of Zhao Liang and Wen Meng again.
"Those two people seem to be using martial arts..."
Yang Ji was thoughtful.
These two people were different from the others. They had shouted loudly before taking action, and their postures were also precise.
When Yang Ji fought with them, he could clearly feel that their power was much stronger than those who could breathe normally in the sixth stage.
If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were obviously half-baked in their moves and had only learned half of them, the result today would still be unknown.
"Maybe..., I should also learn some martial arts."
Yang Ji was thoughtful.
Before reaching the martial arts realm, learning martial arts is the best way to solve this dilemma.
…
At the foot of the mountain, when Yang Ji could no longer be seen, a dozen gangsters stopped.
"Damn it! Zhou Kuang is dead, what should we do now? If 'Brother Big Tou' knew, he would definitely not let us go!"
One gangster looked sad and almost cried.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Yang Ji killed Zhou Kuang, what does that have to do with us? If we want to find him, he should also go to Yang Ji!"
Another gangster yelled, but his expression was uneasy and far from as confident as he said.
"Zhao Liang, Wen Meng, you two have the closest relationship with Brother Big Tou. You should have a word with each other."
A group of people looked at each other with wary expressions, all looking at Zhao Liang and Wen Meng, who were the strongest.
If Yang Ji were here, he would definitely be extremely surprised, because when these people were in front of him before, they never mentioned "Big Head Brother" at all.
Zhao Liang and Wen Meng did not speak, and looked very ugly.
In Pingchuan County, "Big Tou Ge" represents an unshakable position.
"Big Head" was that person's bandit name when he debuted, but later he received help from noble people, and now he has transcended the level of three religions and nine streams.
