Chapter 208
“Bang!” “Bang!”
Another two packets of salt exploded.
“Ah!” “Ouch!”
This time, it was Tu Shou and Tu Gui who were suffering a fate worse than death. The three burly men’s miserable screams echoed in the quiet night. When the three voices were combined, it sounded like a devil crying and roaring, causing people’s scalps to go numb, and their bodies to tremble.
The villagers finally understood why the masked man who saved them and punished the evildoers wanted the salt for. It turned out that it was to torture people. With the dim light from the lanterns, the villagers could see that the wounds of the three evildoers were covered with white salt. Much of the salt had already seeped into the three evildoers’ blood.
“Tss!”
This was like pouring salt into their wounds!
Moreover, there were so many wounds and so much salt. This kind of pain could be felt even without experiencing it personally. It must be inhuman pain. All the villagers sucked in a breath of cold air again. Their pupils shrank. It was obvious that they were quite frightened.
This was too f * cking scary!
All the villagers might have vented their anger, but they didn’t dare to look at the three evildoers anymore. They all looked at the masked man with gratitude and fear.
From Xiao Chen’s figure, clothes, and black hair, the villagers could tell that Xiao Chen was young. They started to lament that the world of martial artists wasn’t something that aboriginals could understand.
“Xiao Chen … Ah, I beg you … Ah, I beg you to kill us. We can’t take it anymore!
Ahhh … “The three Butcher brothers might be formidable martial artists, and it was common for them to get injured when they were young, but they couldn’t bear the torture of pouring salt on their wounds. Finally, they couldn’t bear it anymore and begged Xiao Chen to give them a quick death.
Xiao Chen didn’t make a sound or move. He just stood there quietly like a devil statue, emitting an icy cold aura that repelled people thousands of miles away. No one dared to approach him.
“Sigh.”
“Wu-Wu!”
The villagers didn’t dare to watch anymore and sighed heavily in their hearts. They walked back to the village one after another and started to collect the corpses of the dead villagers. After a moment, there were wails and cries. It was obvious that they were crying for their dead relatives and friends.
“Ahhh!”
The miserable wails continued.
Two hours later, the blood-curdling screams came to a stop and finally disappeared completely. The reason was very simple. The three butcher brothers had lost too much blood, and in addition to the pain, their minds had almost collapsed. In the end, they fainted.
“Clack!
Clack!
Da!
At this moment, Xiao Chen, who had been standing there like a log, finally moved. With clear footsteps, he walked to where the three Butcher brothers were ten feet away. He bent down and picked up Butcher’s long knife.
Swish swish swish!
His hand rose and the saber fell!
With three slashes, three ugly heads rolled together.
The three Butcher brothers, who had done all sorts of evil, devoid of conscience, and devoid of humanity, finally had their retribution. They lost their lives, but no one pitied them, because they deserved to die.
“It’s time to go back and claim the bounty.”
Xiao Chen took off the shirt of one of the headless corpses and wrapped it around the three heads. Then, he carried them with his left hand and walked in the direction of Flatmoon City, quickly disappearing into the night.
…
The next day, in the evening.
A man was galloping on a rugged mountain road. The horse was a big black horse, very majestic. Sitting on the black horse was a cold young man, carrying a giant wooden sword on his back. Who else could it be but Xiao Chen?
This mountain road was no longer the mountain road outside Flatmoon City, but hundreds of miles away from Long Yao City.
On the back of Xiao Chen’s horse was a bag of bulging, round things. The cloth wrapped around it was bloody. Obviously, it was not something good, but something disgusting and horrible.
Last night, Xiao Chen said that he would exchange his head for the bounty. At this time, he was running in the mountains outside Long Yao City, obviously heading for the headquarters of Bi Fiend Pavilion.
“Neigh!”
“Bang!”
The black horse that was galloping was suddenly pulled by the rope by Xiao Chen. The black horse’s forelimbs rose into the air, kicking wildly in the air. Its thick hind legs stood upright, and surprisingly, it did not fall back. After a moment, its forehooves landed on the ground and stabilized. It was indeed a divine horse.
“Xiu!”
Xiao Chen pulled off the human head bag tied to the horse’s back with his left hand and patted the horse’s back with his right hand. He jumped off the horse and quickly rushed toward the mountain on the left side of the mountain. After a while, he disappeared into the dense forest. As for the black horse, it consciously walked to the side to eat the tender grass.
“Xiu, xiu!”
Xiao Chen ran like a madman. The place he was currently traveling through was either a mountain ridge or a valley, and there were also dense forests. It was not suitable for riding a horse at all, so he decisively abandoned the horse and used his feet instead. With his speed, he was not slower than a horse at all.
As Xiao Chen went deeper into the mountains, the terrain became more and more dangerous. Bi Fiend Pavilion was really cautious. They actually set up their headquarters deep in the mountains, making it difficult for outsiders to find it.
However, one couldn’t blame Bi Fiend Pavilion for being so cautious. Bi Fiend Pavilion had assassinated countless people and made too many enemies. If they were not careful, once their headquarters was found, they would likely be surrounded by countless enemies.
Also, Bi Fiend Pavilion was the number one assassin organization in the Death God Tribe, so they would inevitably be hated by other assassin organizations. If their headquarters were exposed to the world, they would be framed or attacked by other assassin organizations.
It was better to be safe than sorry!
As the Pavilion Master of Bi Fiend Pavilion, Bi Xuesha was very clear about this. Although Bi Fiend Pavilion was very powerful, it could not withstand the sneak attacks of all enemies. Even with the support of the Sha family, they had to be careful.
After all, there was no strongest in this world, only stronger ones. Today, Bi Fiend Pavilion was the number one assassin organization, but tomorrow, it could become the number two assassin organization. This was the cruelty of the assassin world.
“Rumble!”
Almost one hour had passed, and Xiao Chen had already traveled 200 kilometers. Suddenly, there was a loud rumble ahead, like the sound of a huge waterfall falling. Could there be a river in the depths of the mountain?
Sure enough!
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, the view before Xiao Chen suddenly opened up. There was a large piece of flat land in front of him, and a river flowed in the middle of the flat land. Above the river was a large pool, and above the pool was a huge waterfall.
It was like the Milky Way falling from the sky!
The waterfall in front of Xiao Chen was a spectacular sight. The rich stream of water fell from the thousand-foot-tall cliff and crashed into the pool, making a deafening noise. Xiao Chen, who liked peace and quiet, couldn’t help but frown.
After arriving here, Xiao Chen slowed down. He must have arrived at the headquarters of Bi Fiend Pavilion, but there was no one around except for Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen walked straight toward the pool. Could it be that Bi Fiend Pavilion was under the pool?
This was obviously impossible. Bi Fiend Pavilion was not the Dragon Palace, and Bi Xuesha was not the Dragon King.
After a while, Xiao Chen walked to the edge of the pool and yelled in the direction of the waterfall, “Ferry!”
“Dark and windy!”
A moment later, an old man’s voice came from the other side of the pool, but there was no one there. However, the old man’s words were a bit inexplicable.
When Xiao Chen heard the old man’s words, a strange expression appeared on his cold face. He helplessly shouted, “Night of killing!”
This was obviously the secret code for the ferry. It sounded very idiotic. Which genius thought of it?
Xiao Chen wasn’t stupid enough to ask, because it didn’t matter.
Suddenly!
A small boat slowly sailed out from the waterfall. There was a canopy above the boat to block the water from entering the boat, so it wouldn’t sink. However, the impact of the waterfall caused the boat to sway violently, as if it could capsize at any time. However, it miraculously persisted.
Looking from afar, there was an old man dressed as a fisherman driving the boat toward Xiao Chen. He was very skilled at rowing the boat. It was obvious he had been doing this for a long time.
