Bang bang!
A series of explosions reverberated in the sky. Yue Beixuan was all too familiar with this sound.
The roar of firearms!
The people in the market looked up in confusion, completely unaware of what had happened. Then, the sound of hurried horse hooves, screams, and shouts became louder and louder.
Yue Beixuan could almost feel the ground beneath his feet shaking.
Right at this moment, a large group of cavalry rode on tall horses and held a musket in one hand as they fired at the sky without any target.
The other hand was swinging the rope, and his mouth was constantly howling and shouting. He did not rush into the market, but quickly passed by the entrance of the market.
Who were these people?
The Northern Wastelands established an alliance with martial arts, so how could these people have firearms?
Where did their firearms come from?
Just as Yue Beixuan was deep in thought, Liu Xi and Xiao Lan suddenly cried out in alarm!
One of the masked bandits threw the rope in his hand and tied it around Haley, who was at the very edge of the market!
The veins on the masked bandit's arm bulged. Before Haley could even scream, she was pulled onto the horse's back and disappeared in a flash.
As the sound of the hooves gradually faded, Haley's cries also disappeared.
"Xiao Li! Xiao Li!"
The entire market became chaotic as the horse bandits passed by.
Everyone hurriedly hid in the market. It was a mess everywhere.
In the crowd, Liu Xi and Xiao Lan's expressions were pale, and they were instantly at a loss for words.
Just as he was about to rush over to see where He Li was taken, Yue Beixuan pulled him back.
"Don't go out! Wait for a while! They were heading towards the inner city. There were less than 30 of them, so it was impossible for them to charge through the defenses there. They would come back!”
Yue Beixuan's tone was extremely calm.
He made the two women hide behind him. Then, like a civet cat, he darted into the vegetable stall where He Li was originally at and hid himself. He stuck his ears to the ground and listened.
Liu Xi and Xiao Lan widened their eyes in disbelief.
At this moment, the two of them finally reacted. Yue Beixuan's unexpectedly calm response was like a completely different person from his usual taciturn self.
Especially Liu Xi, this silly younger brother who had always been quiet seemed a little unfamiliar now.
Yue Beixuan had no idea what Liu Xi and Xiao Lan were thinking. This market was not far from the inner city.
Not long after, in his ears that were pressed against the ground, the extremely light vibration came again and amplified, accompanied by the sound of the explosion of the musket.
Then, through the gaps between the walls, Yue Beixuan saw that the bandits had already appeared at the corner of the street. They were galloping madly towards the exit of the outer city.
On each of their horses, there was one or two women crying and struggling.
"One, seven, thirteen, eighteen."
Yue Beixuan was like a block of hard ice as he silently counted the number of bandits.
Yue Beixuan did not make a move.
Under the cover of 18 firearms, he did not have the slightest confidence in fighting. Even with Cheng Zhantang's physical fitness, which was almost the same as his, and his martial arts level, which was stronger than his, he only dared to break through under the cover of the night. If he rushed up unprepared now, he would only die on the spot.
However, the handguns in the hands of these bandits seemed to be of an old style, and they were only the length of an arm. It seemed that their power and range were far inferior to the one Yue Beixuan had brought back from the border.
After the sound of the horse hooves had completely disappeared, Yue Beixuan stood up and looked for Liu Xi and Xiao Lan.
"It should be fine!"
"What should we do? What about Xiao Li?"
Liu Xi and Xiao Lan's faces were incomparably pale as they tightly clenched their hands.
They could only watch helplessly as He Xiong's sister was captured by a group of thugs. It was hard to imagine what kind of treatment she would receive. Tears were about to fall from their eyes.
"Let's go back to the dojo and tell Master Chen.”
Yue Beixuan's voice was calm as his mind raced.
This group of people seemed to have captured all women. Was it related to what Li Wenpeng did?
Or was it just a group of unrelated murderers?
...
In the Hezong Sect dojo, Xi Beichen was in high spirits as he talked about the various local customs of the Central Region. Lu Yourong had a reserved smile on her face as she added a few words from time to time. The twenty over students listened to them with country bumpkin expressions. From time to time, their faces would reveal expressions of surprise and envy.
Chen Hexiang smiled as he looked at the students of the dojo who were listening attentively,
These kids had always yearned for the vast world. It was good to let them listen properly, lest they become frogs at the bottom of a well.
Da da da da.
Xi Beichen heard hurried footsteps and saw Liu Xi and the others coming in. His eyes lit up and he was about to speak. Chen Hexiang turned his head and smiled,"
"Xiao Xi, the three of you are back.”
When he saw that the three of them were empty-handed, he was slightly stunned.
"Master Chen, bad news!"
Liu Xi couldn't care less about this matter and said hurriedly,
