I am about to die of old age, and I have awakened the character of longevity.

Chapter 16 I Just Want to Kill You with Zero Risk

The man who spoke was tall and strong, with a fierce green light in his eyes, as if he had Xie An in his grasp.

It was obvious that they were bandits who were accustomed to robbing merchants in this area. They had targeted Xie An when he was serving in Yong'an. They followed him all the way here and confirmed that Xie An and his companions were fat sheep from the countryside with no background, so they showed their fangs.

There is another possibility... this gang of bandits is in cahoots with Yong'an Pawnshop.

Xie An was speechless. He had thought it would be much safer to do business in the county town. Unexpectedly, the danger was not in the city, but outside.

The two sides were more than ten meters apart. Although Xie An's five senses were much sharper than before, he could not detect the opponent's strength. He clenched the dagger with his right hand tucked into his sleeve and remained alert.

Seeing that Xie An didn't say anything, Chen He, who was standing by, thought that Xie An was frightened, so he gritted his teeth and jumped off the carriage, took out a small silver ingot of ten taels and put it on the ground, bowed and smiled apologetically.

"My three heroes, I am Chen He, the younger brother of Chen Lei, the master of the Chen Clan Martial Arts School in Wuqiao Town. Please do me a favor."

The Chen Clan Martial Arts School was the only one in Wuqiao Town and was quite famous in several nearby towns. Whenever Chen He encountered small-time bandits while out and about, simply introducing himself would have a certain deterrent effect. With a little change and a few friendly faces, the bandits generally wouldn't give him too much trouble.

But today, it was a surprise.

The tall man who had spoken earlier suddenly burst into laughter. "Asan, have you ever heard of the Chen Clan Martial Arts School?"

A man to his left, named Ah San, shook his head and sneered, "Brother Wei, our Giant Whale Gang only recognizes the four major martial arts schools in the county. Other than that... they're just a bunch of rabble, not worth mentioning."

When Xie An heard the other party take the initiative to reveal their home address, he knew that they had no intention of giving him a chance to live.

It's like a kidnapped person seeing the kidnapper's face...

really--

The man called Brother Wei's smile was even more mocking. "You think you can get away with just giving me ten taels of silver? You're just treating beggars like beggars. Ah San, Wang Wu. Don't waste time talking to these two old men, just kill them. The money is all ours."

clang!clang!
Asan and Wang Wu both drew their swords from their sheaths. The blades rubbed against the scabbards, sending out sparks that were particularly captivating in the moonlight.

"Please spare my life, gentlemen. I'll give you all my money."

Xie An felt that the three men were about to take action, so he jumped off the carriage in fear, and tremblingly took out five large silver ingots from his bag and showed them in front of the three men.

Although it was late at night, the full moon was hanging high in the sky, and the bright moonlight poured down, making the silver shine.

Sure enough, when the three robbers saw the dazzlingly shiny large silver ingot, they did not rush to buy it, but instead showed greedy looks.

Xie An saw the greed in the faces of the three men from the corner of his eye, and felt that these three men seemed to have not seen much of the world and were not bandits.

Thinking of this, Xie An had a plan in mind, but his face became more and more "fearful", "I will give you these five large silver ingots, and let me, an old man, live, okay?"

The three men were very pleased with Xie An's frightened attitude. The man called Ah San said, "Hurry up and throw the silver over here."

The Giant Whale Gang was a vicious gang that specialized in lurking in the surrounding area and robbing merchants without connections. Although these three people had been robbing for years, this was the first time they had encountered a fat sheep like Xie An, carrying a huge sum of 250 taels of silver.

After all, anyone who dares to leave the city late at night with such a huge sum of money is likely to have a background and be accompanied by bodyguards.

I really met a fat sheep today.

No wonder they are so excited.

However, they did not intend to let Xie An go.

They want to rob money and kill people.

Otherwise, leaving it to others to report to the police later... will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble.

"then."

Xie An threw over five large silver ingots.

Ah San excitedly raised his hand to take it. The moment his hand touched the silver ingot, he suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking through the air. "Swish!"

A sharp arrow came hurtling towards him with a sharp sound. Ah San suddenly realized that something was wrong and cried out, "Oh no!" Instinctively, he reached out to grab the arrow, but it was too fast and too powerful.

As Asan grabbed the sharp arrow, the arrow slipped through his palm with its powerful kinetic energy and pierced his neck with a loud "puff".

"Ho...ho..."

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something. But his trachea was pierced, and he couldn't breathe. Finally, he collapsed to the ground. Only the pungent smell of blood filled the autumn wind.

"Ah San!"

"Third Brother!"

Brother Wei and Wang Wu shouted in shock and anger.

Today they spent half a day scouting the area and confirmed that the two old country men in front of them did not bring any bodyguards with them. They thought they were two fat sheep that they could take advantage of at will.

But he never expected that the old man in front of him would be so cruel.

After a brief moment of daze, Brother Wei shouted, "What a dog hunter. Wang Wu, go kill that old man surnamed Chen. I'll deal with this old hunter."

After the division of labor was clear, Wang Wu swung his sword and slashed at Chen He.

Brother Wei brandished his sword and charged towards Xie An. In order to avoid being hit by arrows, Brother Wei did not walk in a straight line, but changed direction left and right, moving forward alternately.

call out!
Xie An drew his bow and shot an arrow, but because his archery skills were not up to par, he missed.

"..."

Xie An was a little speechless, thinking that Brother Wei was cunning. However, he did not panic. He quickly assessed the situation: Brother Wei was less than ten meters away from him, and he would be there in an instant.

There is still a chance to shoot an arrow.

Although Xie An felt that he was not inferior to him, he did not want to take any risks in close combat. It would be best to shoot him dead before he got close.

call out!
The second arrow was quickly aimed and fired with a bang. The bowstring hummed and the arrow whistled out. Suddenly, with a "clang", it was deflected by Brother Wei's sword. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to Xie An and raised his sword to cut Xie An's face fiercely.

Xie An didn't bother to complain about his rookie shooting skills. He suddenly fell to the ground and pretended to be very scared and desperate.

"How dare a dog hunter kill a member of my Giant Whale Gang? Die!"

Brother Wei was overjoyed upon seeing this, and he turned his blade and slashed at Xie An fiercely. At this moment, Brother Wei simply believed that victory was certain, and he didn't feel much grief or anger over Ah San's death. Instead, he felt that having one less person to share the money with was a good thing. At least he could go to Yihongyuan more often to find girls to spend the night with...

Before Brother Wei could finish imagining the beauty of Yihongyuan, he suddenly felt a cloud of white dust falling towards his face... Sand got into his eyes and he couldn't see!
not good……

Brother Wei immediately put away the knife and waved it wildly in front of his eyes to protect himself.

"You're playing dirty tricks...ah!"

Suddenly, a chill ran through the back of his head, and then Brother Wei was speechless and fell straight to the ground. It turned out that the back of his head was shot through by an arrow, and his brains were scattered all over the ground, emitting a pungent fishy smell.

"I'm old now, and I don't like direct fighting. Besides, in a life-or-death situation, who would tell you the yin and yang? I just want to kill you with zero risk."

Xie An was no longer in the age of bravery and bellicosity, and he didn't think that showing weakness would hurt his dignity. He just wanted to win steadily!

At this moment, Chen He's cry for help came from a distance.

"Old Xie, save me!!"
