Volume 10 Storm Iron Guard Chapter 1 Bloodbath Village
On the way to perform a new task, Gu Yao kept thinking about certain issues.
Previously, he spent all his energy on searching for the lost continent, but neglected another important point - partners.
If he hadn't met Mad God Zhantian in the dungeon yesterday, he might never have thought of it.
Even if one day the Lost Continent is discovered and successfully reached, it will be another world as vast and infinite as the Cady Continent. In that world, finding a person is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. Just think about how vast the Cady Continent is.
Clear.
Moreover, in the Lost Continent, human beings are aliens, and the attitude of the demons is likely to be like that of the people in Kadi Continent towards thieves. Therefore, all actions can only be carried out secretly, and no one can be blatantly posted about missing people.
Sorry, the difficulty has increased a lot.
Furthermore, the person who kidnapped Han Dan was a powerful demon. He knew nothing about that demon Gu Yao. Did he have other companions or an equally powerful background? These should all be taken into consideration.
No matter which angle you start from, you should recruit more partners.
However, it is not easy to recruit a partner. He must meet several conditions.
First, it is powerful enough.
Apart from anything else, this is the most basic condition. In a world that may be more violent and barbaric than a dungeon, a weak person will be of no use to Gu Yao. On the contrary, it will hinder him.
Second, ignore S-level taboos.
There are many powerful people in the mainland, but this condition immediately eliminated most of the people. From ancient times to the present, no one on the mainland would be stupid enough to mess with the temple, unless he was impatient with life. Even Luo Luo, who unified the entire continent,
The Austrian Empire all respects the temple, not to mention other forces or individuals.
Third, the Lost Continent must have a strong attraction to him.
If this were not the case, even if they knew where the Lost Continent was, others would not go to that ghost place.
Fourth, you must accept constraints.
Many strong people are unruly and rebellious. They may go their own way after entering the Lost Continent. With their ancient and modern abilities, it is difficult to manipulate them to serve themselves, unless they have common interests or goals to bind them together.
.
Fifth, I haven’t thought of it yet.
There are not many conditions. But looking across the entire continent, it seems difficult to find a few suitable candidates.
Of course, a lunatic like Zhan Tian who is easy on his feet and willing to risk everything to fight is very suitable. If he can be taken to the Lost Continent, it should be no problem in exchange for doing things for himself. However, how many mad gods are there in the world?
This gave Gu Yao a headache, but fortunately he still had time.
There will be milk, there will be bread, and if you think about it slowly, you will find a solution. Gu Yao comforted himself in this way.
While he was always thinking about how to find a suitable partner, his feet were not idle, and he flew as fast as the wind to the city of Alangduo where the mission was located, shuttling around and dodging obstacles on the road in time.
He has long been accustomed to multitasking and thinking about things while performing Qing Gong, such as mission planning, so he did not hit the big tree. He tripped over a stone and was distracted, which did not affect his practice. On the contrary, he became more and more proficient in the ghost step.
, it has simply become an instinctive part of the body.
Finally, Gu Yao's meditation was interrupted by a noise. It was not a monster or other small animal encountered in the wilderness, but a human voice.
Not far ahead, are there humans?
There were a lot of people, so the sound was quite noisy.
Gu Yao checked the route on the map. There should be no cities or towns nearby.
The sounds coming from the wind were not harmonious, including screams, begging, laughter, insults, and the clash of gold and iron. It seemed like there was a conflict.
Could it be a robbed caravan?
Hey, it might be another valuable secret.
Gu Yao temporarily put aside his partner's worries and rushed to the scene quickly using the Wind Steps. Then he quickly discovered that his guess was wrong.
It's not a caravan, but a small village.
On the map, units smaller than towns are not recorded, so there is no information about villages.
The average village only has a few thousand people, but this unknown village in a remote place has even fewer members. The terrain is flat, and you can tell at a glance that there are only about 70 or 80 households, with an estimated population of 300 to 400 people.
The tranquility of the small mountain village was destroyed by external invasion, and it was in a mess.
Dozens of houses were burning with thick smoke billowing. There were corpses one after another in the village. They had obviously died not long ago, and their blood had not yet solidified and was still bright red.
The murderers were very ruthless. Most of the corpses had their heads missing or their limbs mutilated. The corpses held hoes or hunting bows and arrows in their hands. Rough weapons obviously could not provide them with strong protection.
It can be seen that they are just ordinary villagers.
Gu Yao frowned. Who on earth was this person who brutally attacked innocent civilians who had no use of force, and even bloodbathed the entire village? He was really inhumane.
Gu Yao soon discovered the intruders. A group of people in the center of the village didn't look like good people. They came in and out of various houses noisily, killing people and setting fires for fun. They shouted happily as if they were playing games.
There were twelve horses tied up not far away, all with iron shoes and saddles. They were not used by country folk, they must have come from outside.
Horse thief!
They also have the word thief, but horse thieves and thieves are completely different types.
To put it bluntly, thieves are thieves. They abide by the rules and only obtain what they want through stealing. They rarely use force to kill people and seize treasures.
Horse thieves are no different from bandits and robbers. They generally move on horseback and come and go like the wind.
A woman's exclamation suddenly came from a hut dozens of meters away.
Are there any living villagers? Gu Yao rushed to that hut without hesitation.
The person who exclaimed in the farmhouse was a girl of about sixteen years old. The beautiful scenery of the village gave birth to a beautiful and refined little beauty.
The beautiful appearance gave the girl pride, but it also attracted sinful looks.
The horse thief who committed all kinds of crimes obviously would not let such a beautiful girl go. The girl's clothes were messy, and a large hole was torn at the hem of the skirt, exposing her white and tender thighs.
In front of her was a tiger-backed horse thief with a long scar from his forehead to his face, clearly showing his fierce look.
A lewd smile appeared on this ferocious face. The scarred face stared at the girl's exposed skin with saliva: "Hey, my scarred face is so beautiful. In this place where a bird doesn't shit, there are things that are so tender.
What a pretty girl."
Faced with Scarface's advancing step by step, the girl covered her skirt like a frightened bird and retreated step by step until there was no way to retreat because there was a wall behind her.
It can be seen from the simple and elegant decoration in the room that this may be a girl's bedroom.
Looking at the mattress made of animal skins and soft fur in the bedroom, Scarface smiled even more obscenely: "Girl, you are really sentimental, and you also know how to choose a place! Okay, I will do as you wish!"
After saying that, he couldn't wait to pounce on it. If he was late, when other companions arrived, it might not be his turn to taste the first bite of this big piece of fat meat.
At this moment, he suddenly became alert. Horse thieves were all licking blood from the blades of their swords, and they had a keen sense of danger.\\
He suddenly turned his head and saw a young man standing behind him. He was holding up a hatchet and was about to strike at him. There was a hint of fighting spirit on the tip of the knife.
The originally closed wardrobe in the bedroom was opened, and it seemed that the boy had been hiding inside just now.
"Hey! It turns out there is a cunning little bastard who actually knows how to fight!"
Scarface was shouting, but he didn't pay attention to the other person at all. He flew up with a kick like lightning, kicked the boy up, and slammed into the wall. He covered his stomach in pain, and blood gurgled from the corner of his mouth.
He cried out, struggling to stand up, but still fell down. He shouted to himself: "Let my sister go, you bastard!"
Although he has some fighting spirit, he is still a child and lacks experience in battle, but his courage is commendable and he shows no fear when facing horse thieves.
"You're not dead? You're lucky. I'll take care of you after I play with your sister! You take your time and watch. It's good to enjoy your eyes before you die. Have you never seen your sister's naked body? You'll see it soon.
.Jie Jie!”
Scar turned his head, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, then severe pain came, and the front of him suddenly became much darker.
One of his eyes was blinded.
The weak girl just now had a pink face covered with frost, and she was holding a long pointed hairpin in her hand. Only then did Scar realize that he had made a mistake. This delicate girl, who seemed to have no ability to resist, could actually be so ruthless.
hot.
The faint fighting spirit glow on the hairpin shows that she is also skilled in martial arts, although she is not much better than her younger brother.
The girl struck out. She expected that this stab would be able to kill the horse thief, but unexpectedly, it was hindered by his body-protecting fighting spirit and only blinded one eye.
When the horse thief broke into the house, she asked her brother to hide in the closet so that the horse thief could make a sneak attack. If the horse thief failed, she could also attract his attention and create opportunities for herself to strike.
The plan was indeed perfect, but it was a pity that the lack of experience prevented it from being completed.
Blinded at a glance, the scarred face was as angry as a trapped animal. He could no longer care about beauty. He endured the pain and roared: "I'll kill you bitch!"
He took out the big knife from his waist and slashed at the girl.
The girl was at a loss. She was still on the spot after the big knife fell. She was about to die, but at this moment, a hand grabbed Scarface's wrist.
"Man, it's not a good thing to destroy flowers with your hands!"
Scarface was furious: "Stop talking nonsense, didn't you see that one of my tricks is useless? No one can keep this bitch..."
At this point, he suddenly realized something was wrong, because the voice of the speaker did not sound like any of his companions.
He turned his head in shock and saw a stranger standing behind him.
"What if I insist on staying?" As soon as he finished speaking, the stranger's flexed fingers gently popped out.
This time it wasn't as simple as the other eye being stabbed blind. Scar's head was shattered like a watermelon dropped to the ground. The red and white brains splashed all over the wall. The corpse did not fall down immediately, and kept convulsing.
.
Although someone came to save them, the two girls were still frightened by his cruel methods.
The strong smell of blood wafted into his nose, and the boy couldn't help but vomit.
At this time, a faint human voice came from outside: "That guy Scar, why haven't you come back after being gone for so long?"
"Eighty percent he has found some fun, but he wants to enjoy it by himself!"
"Let's go there quickly. That bastard has a habit of raping and killing. If we're late, we won't even get a share of the pie."
This person was naturally Gu Yao. He closed the bedroom door and looked around the two girls: "Don't talk or do anything later. Leave it all to me. Do you understand?"
The girl was helpless at this moment, so she naturally obeyed her orders and nodded subconsciously.
The words were getting closer and closer. I could hear chaotic footsteps in the hall outside.
There is not just one horse thief, but at least four or five people. Can he deal with so many evil people?
The girl's heart was so nervous that she jumped wildly, but she didn't dare to ask out loud.
The bedroom door was finally knocked open.
"Hey, Scar, we're here."
The first thing the horse thieves saw was the girl opposite the door. Their eyes lit up, but their lustful thoughts quickly disappeared because there was a person lying on the ground, and that person was their companion.
"Scar. What's wrong with you!?"
The corpse would not answer, but someone answered for him, and intensive punches came from the side of the door.
Master!
This is the common thought of the horse thieves, but it is a pity that just like the massacre of civilians before, they now have no power to resist.
Under the dense punches, the sound of cracking bones was heard. The horse thieves didn't even have time to scream, before they were blasted into a puddle of soft flesh. All the bones were shattered.
The horse thieves who attacked a small village of several hundred people were a ragtag group of people. They were at best equivalent to the level of a low-level or intermediate warrior in the fourth level of the profession. Their strength was vastly different from that of Gu Yao.
It can be said that Gu Yao did not need to ambush at all, he just walked out of the village and killed the horse thieves, but this would be troublesome, so it was better to gather them together.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. A total of eight people including Scar, a total of twelve horses, and four are left!
Gu Yao's heart was spinning, and he quickly calculated the remaining thieves.
This time he didn't wait and wait, there was no need for it anymore.
He strode out of the hut and walked towards the center of the village.
Two more horse thieves were approaching here, complaining as they walked: "Damn, first it was Scar, then Lao Qi, Shan Hu and the others also passed by, and they haven't come back yet. They must have had fun!"
"Yes, hurry up, otherwise the women will be killed by them, and we are still having fun!"
The horse thief who was spitting out dirty words suddenly spotted Gu Yao walking towards him. He couldn't help but be stunned. This man seemed to be different from ordinary villagers. He was too calm and had a dangerous aura about him, so they didn't dare to take action immediately. They were wary.
Said: "Who are you? Which path do you belong to?"
What answered them was a pair of iron fists, which hit the two horse thieves directly in the face.
It was so fast that the distance of several feet was in front of me in an instant, as if the distance in space had been shortened.
The two horse thieves did not react at all. Before they could draw their weapons, their heads left their necks and turned into a mist of blood in the air.
Gu Yao has already become truly angry, otherwise the mere thieves would not need to use the atomic blasting fist...
The last two horse thieves, who were counting the trophies next to the horses, were more interested in property than women and were shocked when they saw this.
There is no doubt that this is a terrifying and powerful man that they must not provoke!
The other companions who never returned were probably all killed as well.
The two horse thieves immediately jumped on their horses and galloped away, not even caring about the loot on the ground, knowing that nothing was as important as their own lives.
The horses ran less than ten meters when two black lines shot from behind, piercing their throats.
The frightened horse neighed and threw the body away, then bolted far away from the village. At this point, all the horse thieves who invaded the village were wiped out, and they were in hell to atone for the evil deeds they had committed.
Gu Yao quickly checked all the houses in the village and found no one alive. Even pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and other poultry were not spared. This vicious horse thief took pleasure in killing.
Back in the center of the village, the young man also walked out with the support of his sister. They looked at the messy village with dull faces, almost unable to believe their eyes.
Just an hour ago, their friendly neighbors had been alive and the village was full of life. Now, it was completely destroyed.
"Thank you for saving us."
The girl who saw Gu Yao quickly thanked her, but there was a hint of cowardice in her words. Gu Yao's methods made the fear in her heart outweigh her gratitude. This man was like a demon, killing people without blinking an eye compared to a horse thief.
"Ah, Uncle Sam!"
The boy who was looking around suddenly discovered something. He broke away from his sister's support, staggered away and ran away, and lay down in front of a person: "Uncle Sam! Uncle Sam! What's wrong with you!"
That person, or a corpse would be more appropriate. He was no longer breathing. Gu Yao could easily tell. What's more, there was a big blood hole in his heart. No one could survive such a fatal injury.
.
The young man soon realized it, and with his hope shattered, he lay on the corpse and began to cry loudly.
The corpse is the only formally armed person in the entire village. He is wearing armor, but he is old and has wrinkles on his face. He has always been defeated by horse thieves. It seems that he is a relative of the two siblings.
The girl stood quietly next to her, her eyes were red, but she did not cry like her brother, but she bit her lips tightly with silver teeth, almost bleeding.
Gu Yao was slightly surprised, walked to her and said, "Why don't you cry?"
"I will never shed tears before I kill my enemy!" The girl's sad words contained unshakable determination.
Gu Yao pointed to the body of the horse thief and said, "I have already avenged you."
"No, not yet!" The girl gritted her teeth and said, "They are just little guys. There is someone else who instigated this gang of horse thieves. That person is the real murderer who caused the destruction of our village and the loss of our loved ones!"
Hey, I really didn’t expect that a girl in a simple mountain village would have such thoughts. I really underestimated her.
The girl was right. Gu Yao inspected the bodies of the horse thieves and learned their identities from the badges they carried - the Black Wind Horse Thieves Group.
This group of notorious horse thieves, active in Dallas County in the northwest, finally aroused the anger of the ruler of Dallas County six months ago due to their ferocity and cruelty and countless evil deeds, and they sent out a large army to encircle and suppress them.
Although the Black Wind Horse Thieves were powerful, they were not as powerful as the army. Their vitality was severely damaged and they were expelled to the west, which also brought disaster to the village.
Of course, the invading horse thieves are just one of the squads in the Black Wind Horse Thieves Group, so their number is so small. Gu Yao squinted his eyes and said, "Okay, maybe you are right, but there is a problem. Even if there is someone behind the horse thieves,
There is a leader, but you are so weak, why should you seek revenge?"
Without saying a word, the girl knelt down in front of Gu Yao: "Sir, please teach me martial arts!"
She is a girl with a smart mind. She just witnessed Gu Yao's tyrannical skills in squeezing the vicious horse thief to death like an ant, and knew that she had met a top strong man. If she could get his teachings, then revenge would be possible.
"No, sister, it's us!" The young man also knelt down in front of Gu Yao: "Please teach us martial arts!"
He kowtowed desperately, and kowtowed so hard that his forehead banged, and he didn't care about it until it started bleeding, without any pretense at all.
Gu Yao waved his hand slightly, and the right amount of force made the two of them stand up unconsciously.
In the expectant gazes of the two people, Gu Yao said calmly: "Besides, you can just follow me for now."
