Hou Tiankui walked out of the house and left a dozen soldiers behind to protect his father's safety. He only brought two trusted aides and rushed to the Japanese army headquarters.
Hou Tiankui was no better than his father. Before the Japanese came, he had relied on his family's wealth and power to often bring some slaves to bully men and women in Yuling. It could be said that he had done many evil things. Because no one dared to provoke him, he gradually developed a lonely and arrogant personality.
The street was eerily quiet. The three of them could only hear their own footsteps.
The three of them had just reached the crossroad not far from Hou's house when an arrow suddenly shot out from the opposite side of the street. Before Hou Tiankui could react, the hat on his head was shot off.
"Ah! Who?"
Hou Tiankui exclaimed. He touched his head and felt a sticky, warm liquid in his hand.
Hou Tiankui was about to reach for his gun when he heard someone say,""Don't move. The arrow just now was shot at your hat. The next arrow will be your head!”
His voice was deep and powerful. Even in this hot summer night, Hou Tiankui still felt a chill run down his spine.
"What…what do you want?"
"What? Don't you know what I want to do? But I know what you want to do. Do you want to report to your Japanese master?”
"You…Who are you?"
"You're not that stupid, are you? I think you can guess."
"You are the Divine Arrow Hero!"
"That's just what others call me. My name is Li Jingtian! A few days ago in the forest outside the city and last night, I killed the Japanese. The reason why I'm telling you this is to tell you that the Japanese are not gods. They are still my prey. No one can escape from my arrows. Even they can't protect you! Do as you see fit."
The voice suddenly stopped, and a black shadow flashed in the dark night…
It turned out that Li Jingtian had already predicted that Hou Rengui would return to his son after receiving the letter. Moreover, his son would definitely not be willing to take the 100,000 yuan. He would definitely tell the Japanese. Therefore, after he left the Hou Clan, he had been hiding in the dark and observing the Hou Clan's every move. Seeing that Hou Tiankui really wanted to report to the Japanese, he warned the Hou father and son.
Hou Tiankui stood rooted to the ground for two to three minutes.
"Guild Leader, what should we do now? Are we still going to the Japanese?"
Hou Tiankui's adjutant, Liu Dong, asked carefully.
"Go my ass! You want to kill me!"
Hou Tiankui had just recovered from his shock when he cursed at Liu Dong.
"Then…where are we going now?”
"Where else can we go? Let's go home!"
Fortunately, this place was not far from the Hou family's residence. In a few minutes, they returned home.
Hou Rengui was pacing back and forth in the living room with a lot on his mind. When he saw Hou Tiankui walk in, he asked in surprise,""You came back so soon. What did the Japanese say?”
Hou Tiankui sat down on the chair angrily and said,""Why are you going to meet the Japanese? I almost lost my life.”Hou Tiankui pointed at his own head.
Hou Rengui poked his head out and saw that Hou Tiankui's head had been hit by an arrow. A tuft of his hair had been cut off, and fresh blood was oozing out.
"Son, this…this was also done by the Divine Arrow Hero?”
"Nonsense, if it wasn't him, then I did it myself!”
Hou Tiankui said angrily.
"Aiya! Son, I think this archer has his eyes on us. It seems that we have to give him the money.”
"Yeah, as the saying goes, losing money to avoid disaster. Wasn't it just 100,000 yuan? It was better to give it to him so that his family wouldn't suffer.”
Tian Ruhua said.
"What are you talking about? Isn't it just 100,000 yuan? 100,000 yuan is worth more than 200 catties of gold. If I really have to take out so much money, I might as well die!”
Hou Rengui was a true miser. If he was asked to take out money, not to mention 100,000 yuan, even if it was 10 yuan, he would feel as if he was being cut off.
"Okay, you can't bear to do it, right? Then you can watch your whole family get killed by the Master Archer. You're almost 60 years old, so you don't think it's a big deal. But I'm only in my thirties. I'll bring the child in my stomach back to my mother's house tomorrow and never come back again. I don't want to be buried with you.”
As Tian Ruhua spoke, she pouted and walked out of the door.
"Aiya, little ancestor! I just feel sorry for her, but I didn't say that I wouldn't give it to her!”
Hou Rengui quickly stopped Tian Ruhua.
Not only was Tian Ruhua young, but she was also charming like a demon. Among his five wives, Hou Rengui loved her the most. Moreover, he knew that Tian Ruhua was pregnant, but what he did not know was that the child in Tian Ruhua's stomach might belong to someone else!
"Alright! Stop arguing! That Li Jingtian is in the dark while we are in the light. It is indeed not easy to deal with him. Father, didn't he give you three days? I think it's better if you prepare first. I'll think of a way in these three days. If there's really no other way, I can only give him the money. I can't bet my entire family's lives with him, right?”
It seemed that Li Jingtian's arrow had really made the Houtian Realm suffer a loss, but he still seemed to be unwilling.
"Are we still going to tell the Japanese about this?”
Hou Rengui asked.
"If we tell the Japanese, wouldn't that be suicide? Li Jingtian must be watching us from the shadows. Alright, just focus on raising the money. Don't worry about anything else.”
After Hou Tiankui finished speaking, he waved his hand and walked out…
————
After scaring Hou Tiankui, Li Jingtian went straight to the ruined temple because he had arranged to meet Wang Weimin and a few other beggars there.
In the dilapidated temple, Wang Weimin and the other three were sitting at a stone table. They were talking as they waited for Li Jingtian to arrive.
"You're all here."
As he spoke, Li Jingtian stepped in.
"Gang Leader."
Seeing him enter, the few of them quickly stood up and called out.
"Alright, it's just the few of us. There's no need to be so formal.”
Li Jingtian waved his hand.
"Who is he?"
Suddenly, Li Jingtian noticed an unfamiliar face among the four of them. This person was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was tall and muscular, and one could tell at a glance that he was a powerful person.
Li Jingtian didn't know this person, so he asked Wang Weimin.
"Oh, his name is Du Dakui. He's a neighbor of mine. I met him on the street today. At that time, I saw him holding a wooden stick in his hand and following two Japanese soldiers. I thought that something must have happened, so I quietly followed them. Sure enough, at the entrance of an alley, I saw him attack the two Japanese with a wooden stick. After that, I brought him here and told him about us. He immediately agreed. Because he also wants revenge!"
"Yes, I want revenge too. Master Divine Arrow, please take me in!”
As he spoke, Du Dakui knelt down in front of Li Jingtian.
Li Jingtian quickly supported him and said,""Big brother, you can't do that. What grudge do you have with the Japanese? Can you tell us?”
"Sigh!"
Du Dakui stood up and sighed heavily. Then, he punched the stone table. The table that was more than ten centimeters thick was actually smashed into pieces by his punch...
