"Sir, we've been escorted." The veteran pointed at the five Longhu gang members, kicking each of them and breaking their kneecaps.
There were no screams, only whimpering sounds of terror.
Because their mouths were stuffed with cloth balls.
Zhang Fugui looked at Li Changan, wanting to see how Li Changan would handle it.
He advocated bringing these people to Li Changan for the sake of teaching.
If they wanted to kill, Ding Changwang and others could actually kill them directly today, but bringing them here would have a different meaning.
Because he will not take action, Ding Changwang will not take action, and all veterans will not take action.
The only one who can take action is Li Changan.
The scheming silver tael will make the veterans feel grateful and admired. Even if they sacrifice their lives for Li Changan, the main purpose is to repay their kindness.
But if you want to convince your brothers and be willing to sacrifice your life, you must do what a soldier should do.
Now that you've embarked on this path, and since you can't look back, you might as well go all the way.
Let your brothers completely surrender to you.
Zhang Fugui said in his heart.
Li Changan glanced at the five people who were kneeling on the ground and could only moan and groan, and then turned his attention to the rain curtain.
Time passes slowly.
More and more veterans came back in the yard, but when they saw the five people kneeling in the yard, they tacitly agreed not to make a sound, but instead turned their attention to Li Changan, who seemed to be in a daze.
There were more and more people in the courtyard, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
The spring rain was as moist as crisp, and everyone stood in the rain, letting the continuous drizzle get wet.
Finally, Ding Changwang came back with six archers, each of them carrying a strong murderous aura that could not be washed away even if the rain kept falling.
He also saw this scene, and after exchanging glances with the others, he stood quietly in the corner.
Everyone looked at Li Changan.
This huge pressure can be felt by everyone.
Li Changan didn't seem to notice, still in a daze.
The courtyard was quiet.
Suddenly, Li Changan spoke, "Uncle Zhang, please go to Tonglu Alley and tell my sister-in-law and little sister that I won't be going back tonight."
Zhang Fugui nodded and strode away.
The yard became quiet again.
By the time Song Anmin came to the courtyard, everyone had returned except for Tian Huaqiang's group and a few people who wanted to steal and replace others.
Song Anmin walked up to Li Changan, cupped his fists and said, "Sir, this operation was very successful."
"Except for Lao Tian's group who deliberately took advantage of the situation, none of the other brothers were injured or killed."
Only then did Ding Changwang step forward, "Forty-seven people from the Longhu gang were killed and over a hundred were injured; thirty-two people from the Xicun gang were killed and over a hundred were injured."
Li Changan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
Everyone clasped their fists without saying a word.
There was a heavy sense of depression in the yard, and only the torches under the eaves were dancing with light, like a group of demons dancing wildly.
All the veterans are waiting.
How will Li Changan deal with these five people?
"Pa!" Li Changan finally walked out from under the eaves and stepped into a puddle, causing water droplets to splash everywhere.
"Snapped!"
…
Every step was heavy. There was no joy or sorrow on Li Changan's face, and his eyes seemed to be struggling.
"Uncle Ding..."
Li Changan stretched out his hand, and Ding Changwang immediately understood and handed over the folding crossbow in his hand.
Li Changan took the folding crossbow, pulled the string, pressed the stones, and took out the cloth ball from one of the people's mouth.
"Who are you? Who are you?" The man was already pale with fright.
The group of people in the yard all seemed to have stepped out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. The murderous aura and disregard for human life in their bodies made his liver and gallbladder split.
Have they ever experienced such a battle?
Li Changan raised his finger, narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Shut up and listen to me."
"I...I'm from the Longhu Gang."
The man's mind was so confused that he could still hear Li Changan's words? He just kept talking to himself, "There are five hundred members of the Longhu Gang, you'd better..."
Before he finished speaking, a sound like a watermelon exploding was heard, and the sound suddenly stopped.
At close range, the power of the folding crossbow reaches its extreme.
Blood splattered on the spot along with brain matter.
Li Changan's stomach churns, and a stream of sour water pours out of his throat, mixed with the smell of iron.
Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and forcefully swallow the sour water.
Li Changan opened his eyes again, pulled up the string, walked to the second person, and picked off the cloth ball.
Suddenly the smell of feces and urine came out.
The second person couldn't say a word, and his lips trembled as if they were shaking chaff.
"do you remember me?"
"..."
Li Changan raised the folding crossbow, and the second man nodded desperately.
"Just because I don't give you face? Are you going to attack my family?" Li Changan's voice was hoarse and he stared at the person in front of him.
"What would you do if you kidnapped my sister-in-law?"
"..." The second man opened his mouth wide, but fear had already overwhelmed his heart, and he couldn't say a word at all.
But Li Changan said to himself, "I know it even if you don't tell me."
"Bang!"
"Plop."
Pulling the string again, Li Changan walked to the third person without taking off the cloth ball again.
"You guys are just bullies who bully the weak and fear the strong."
"I'm no saint."
"Originally, you did this to others, so when I found out, I just called you beasts. At most, I helped others as much as I could."
"But you...touched my reverse scales."
Li Changan's eyes gradually filled with violence and bloodshot eyes appeared.
"Even if everyone in the Longhu Gang dies, it's still nothing compared to one of their hairs."
"Bang!"
"Plop!"
Li Changan stopped talking, just pulled the string, pressed the stone, and pulled the trigger.
All five people fell to the ground. Under the swaying firelight, the red and white things on the ground were reflected, and slowly faded away with the rain.
Li Changan felt as if all his strength had been drained from his body in an instant. The folded crossbow slipped out of his hand, turned around and walked back to the main room step by step.
All the veterans in the yard were silent.
The door of the room slowly closed, and then there was the sound of violent vomiting, and the sound of crying that was trying to be suppressed.
"Boss..." Song Anmin looked at Zhang Fugui worriedly, "Is it too much?"
He still remembered that when he first entered the battlefield, he was so scared that he peed his pants in the first battle and almost became a deserter.
When I killed the first person, I had nightmares for several days.
Most of the brothers present are like this.
No matter how meticulous Li Changan is, no matter how cautious and ruthless he is, he is still just a young man who has not yet reached the top.
This step is too big.
"He has to take this step after all." Zhang Fugui's eyes were full of worry, "His future road will only be more difficult."
"Give him some time...I believe him."
Ding Changwang picked up the body and walked out without saying a word.
The sound of vomiting continued for a long time in the room, and in the end there was only the sound of retching, and it was obvious that all the acidic water in the stomach was vomited.
In the second half of the night, there was no sound in the house.
After cleaning up the bodies, the veterans did not take shelter from the rain. They stood upright in the yard, waiting for the people in the house to come out.
As early in the morning approached, a veteran under Tian Huaqiang hurried over carrying a sack, "Touer Zhang, we found a person in the room of a small leader of the Longhu Gang."
"who?"
"Miss Yan, who plays the pipa on the hook, seems to have some relationship with the young master. Lao Tian asked me to secretly send her here."
Zhang Fugui frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
"The little boss kidnapped Miss Yan and was sent out before he could do anything. He died outside. Lao Tian happened to take over his mess and found Miss Yan who was unconscious."
Zhang Fugui looked at the main room where there was still no sound, and sighed softly, "Untie me and send her to a side room. I will send Miss Yan back when she wakes up."
The sun rose in the east, the drizzle finally stopped, and large dark clouds seemed to be lined with a layer of gold, moving slowly in the sky.
"Creak..." The wooden door slowly opened, and the veterans straightened their bodies one after another, staring closely at the figure slowly walking out of the house.
When the figure completely came out, everyone bowed and clasped their fists, "Young Master."
An indescribable iron-blooded energy echoed in the courtyard.
This time, everyone did not stand up during the salute. Instead, they kept their posture of bowing and clasping their fists, motionless.
Even Zhang Fugui followed suit, without exception.
side house,
A man in green clothes was staring in horror, looking through the crack in the door at the figure walking out of the main room.
