Chapter 7 Remaining 2
Chapter 7 Remaining Part
His body fell heavily to the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.
The man's face, which was already ferocious, now looked even more distorted.
A scream came out of his mouth, and he looked at the approaching beggar with horror on his face, and said hurriedly:
"Hero, spare your life!!"
At that moment just now, he didn't even see where the sword was, and his palm was gone.
This person's swordsmanship is like that of a ghost or god, and he is definitely not someone he can contend with.
He immediately turned over and knelt down, saying repeatedly:
"I have never met you, my lord. I don't know how I have offended you. Please show me mercy and spare my life!"
Chu Qing held up his sword and walked forward slowly, whispering as he walked:
"We are strangers."
"..."
These words left the seven thieves of Iron Horse, who had killed countless people, speechless. They had no grudges in the past and no hatred today. Where did this evil star come from and cut off their hands as soon as he came?
However, his thoughts did not show on his face at all.
Just kowtow repeatedly:
"If that's the case, I guess you, the hero, don't like what I did.
"Please show mercy, my hero. From now on, I will change my ways and become a new man..."
When he said this, a gleam of brilliance suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Begging for mercy was just an illusion. The real purpose was to take advantage of Chu Qing's unpreparedness and launch a sneak attack to kill him.
He had a hidden arrow in his left sleeve. He only needed to use his internal strength to push it, and at close range, he would never miss a shot.
At the same time, the arrows are poisoned, which can kill people instantly with one blow.
If this person hits the target, he will definitely die today.
At this moment, the distance between Chu Qing and him was just right, so he suddenly raised his head, grinning, and stretched out his hand and shouted:
"Die to me..."
He had just uttered half of the word "die" when he saw a flash of silver light.
The left arm that had just been raised suddenly drooped down.
Before he could even activate his energy, the meridians in his left arm had been cut off by the sword. Now he couldn't use any strength at all.
A ferocious smile remained on his face, and before he could say anything else, a flash of light appeared in front of his eyes.
The heart had been pierced by the sword.
"you……"
He opened his mouth and said one more word, but as the sword was pulled out, he could no longer utter the rest.
The body tilted and the dead body fell to the ground.
Chu Qing shook off the blood on the sword and went to retrieve the scabbard first.
Then he came to the corpse and hesitated for a moment:
"In this case, how can I prove that I killed him?"
Looking back at the horse that was circling around because its owner was missing, Chu Qing smiled.
He drew his sword again and cut off the thief's head.
He took a piece of cloth from his body, dipped it in blood and wrote [The seven thieves on the iron horse, killing people all over the field, their crimes should be punished - Night Emperor].
"Isn't this name a bit too childish? Was it influenced by the original owner?"
Chu Qing touched his chin, but didn't care.
This thing is just a code name. It’s not certain whether it will be used next time. It doesn’t matter what it is.
Just don't let people associate it with you.
His code name in the Evil Mirror is "Sword Ghost". No one knows what the hell happened to him, but he chose this code name.
Anyway, these two code names have nothing to do with each other. Even if the people from Niejingtai knew about this, they would not be able to connect them together.
Tie the human head to the horse, and when the horse without its owner is discovered, the words on it will be visible.
By then, the news will naturally spread, and the shopkeeper will understand what is going on when he hears the news.
As for why you didn't take the head and go back to find the shopkeeper?
Firstly, carrying a human head around in public is too cumbersome, and the smell of blood will also bring unnecessary trouble.
Secondly... Chu Qing had no intention of asking the shopkeeper for money from the beginning.
How much money can I get from the shopkeeper?
I'm afraid it's not as much as what I got from these thieves...
What's more, his real reward is the reward for the assassination mission. Unless the system requires him to go to the employer to settle the bill later, Chu Qing doesn't want to go to him. The less a teahouse owner who doesn't know martial arts knows, the safer he is.
It was enough to send the message in this way, letting him know that his enemy was dead.
After doing this, he began to search the headless corpse again.
After a moment, he stood up contentedly.
"It seems that being a thief is more promising than being a killer. This guy is worth a lot of money."
It wasn't much silver, only seven or eight taels, but there was a handful of gold leaves.
Although there are only five or six pieces, each piece is heavy and can be considered a considerable fortune.
In addition, he paid special attention to checking the man's left sleeve.
A hidden arrow was taken out from inside.
This thing is exquisitely made, with a calfskin sheath and a quiver forged from fine copper.
It can be tied close to the wrist and triggered by vibrating the mechanism with internal force, which is quite secretive.
The downside is that it only has one arrow.
Chu Qing put it on his left wrist without hesitation.
As a killer, he will do anything to achieve his goal.
Naturally, I accepted this unexpected good thing with a smile.
Then he took out a tinder and lit some flammable objects such as silver bills. Finally, as the clothes caught fire, the entire headless corpse began to burn.
After doing all this, he reached out and patted the horse's buttocks gently.
As the saying goes, an old horse knows the way. The divine horse that has lost its master can not only help him deliver the message of killing, but also help him find the remaining two targets.
With this in mind, he casually opened the system's delegation interface.
[Commission: Assassinate the Seven Iron Horse Thieves (Two Remaining)]
Chu Qing frowned:
"That's not quite right. Chu Fan's martial arts are pretty good. Even though the Seven Iron Horse Thieves are quite famous, six of them together are no match for him alone.
"After chasing that bandit leader all the way, he should have retired long ago.
"How come that person hasn't died yet?
"Could it be...something unexpected happened?"
But he soon shook his head. Chu Fan was born with supernatural powers and was born in Taiyi Sect.
He has extraordinary skills.
Although his junior sister with the dead face had never taken action, she was expected to be no ordinary person.
With these two people working together, even if something unexpected happens, it won't be a big deal.
With this thought in mind, he followed the horse quietly.
After walking for only an incense stick of time, the surrounding environment had become low-lying and humid, with streams winding through. At the same time, Chu Qing also heard the sound of fighting in the distance.
Chu Qing raised his eyebrows:
"Has the fight really lasted until now?"
He pondered for a moment and quickened his pace.
He arrived there in a moment, and after taking a closer look at the terrain, he came to a high place.
Looking closely, I saw figures interweaving and a fierce fight taking place below.
Chu Fan and the remaining two of the Seven Iron Horse Thieves were all there, and besides them there were two more women.
The Seven Iron Horse Thieves were not worth mentioning, but these two women made Chu Qing raise his eyebrows.
They look young, but their martial arts skills are amazing.
The two men were proficient in a combined attack technique, and when they joined forces they were extremely powerful.
It’s just that the way they joined forces was a bit weird... These two women, one was tall and the other short. When they started fighting, the tall one grabbed the short one in her hand and hit her like she was swinging a mace, with great force and heft.
If there were only two of the Iron Horse Seven Thieves, Chu Fan would have beaten them to death long ago.
However, at this moment, Chu Fan not only failed to kill the Seven Iron Horse Thieves, but was defeated by the strange moves of these two women.
