The next morning.
The couple took Gu Chenglin along and hired a carriage to the dock.
When they pa.s.sed by a mountain, more than 30 people suddenly rushed out of the mountain. Each of them looked fierce, like bandits.
The coachman was frightened and immediately stopped the carriage. He carefully cupped his fists and said, “Gentlemen, please let us pa.s.s.”
“Pa.s.s? There’s no way that’s possible. If you don’t want to die, get lost.” The leader shook the large sword in his hand and said.
“Yes, yes. This lowly one will scram now.” The coachman hurriedly replied and turned around to leave.
However, just as he turned the carriage around, someone stopped him and said, “Stop, leave the carriage.”
When the coachman saw this, he was so frightened that he immediately ran away.
Gu Chengrui walked out at this moment. He saw the crowd surrounding him and said, “Brothers, this is a hundred taels of silver. Please do me a favor and let us go.”
“Kid, you’re on the right track, but we want money and your lives. I’m afraid you won’t be able to make it out today.”
“Seeing how you let the coachman go just now, I don’t think you’re some evil person. I wonder if you can let us die painlessly.”
“You’re smart, kid. No wonder people think you’re a hindrance. However, we’re being paid to help someone eliminate their problems.” After the leader finished speaking, he raised his sword and slashed at Gu Chengrui.
When Gu Chengrui saw this, he quickly ran off the horse’s back. At the same time, he sprinkled a packet of knockout powder in his hand.
“s.h.i.t, retreat!” The leader shouted.
At the same time, Zhou Ying knew that they couldn’t avoid this fight. She immediately took out a packet of knockout powder and knocked out Gu Chenglin, trembling in fear, before throwing him into her inters.p.a.ce.
She quickly took out two flintlocks with iron beads as bullets and a large bag of tear gas powder. After putting on a mask, she promptly left the carriage.
She threw the bag of tear gas powder in front of the most people, which was also diagonally above Gu Chengrui, and fired a shot.
The powder scattered in all directions.
Gu Chengrui was shocked by this; he immediately covered his nose before dodging to one side.
The people below were all sneezing non-stop, unable to open their eyes.
Gu Chengrui took the opportunity to s.n.a.t.c.h a sword and quickly slashed at a person who was still sneezing.
The other men forcefully tried to slash Gu Chengrui.
Zhou Ying immediately stepped forward to stop them. She shot the gun in her hand, explicitly aiming at their eyes. If she couldn’t hit their eyes, at the very least, she would hit their heads.
No matter where she hit, it made these people cry out in pain.
After the leader was. .h.i.t, he screamed, “Everyone, grab the weapon from that woman’s hand first!”
Zhou Ying laughed after hearing that. When they surrounded her, she took out another packet of tear gas powder and quickly threw it above the crowd.
When they realized something was wrong and wanted to retreat, it was already too late. At least half of them had been affected by the tear gas powder.
“You witch, go to h.e.l.l!” At this moment, a scream came from behind Zhou Ying.
Gu Chengrui saw someone had ambushed her and quickly shouted, “Behind you!”
At the same time, he was caught off guard and had his arm slashed. Gu Chengrui immediately backhanded and stabbed the man in the stomach.
It was already too late for Zhou Ying to aim her gun, so she quickly spread out her divine sense and used it to stab the brain of the person behind her.
She turned around and saw a sword only half a foot away from her. Then, she took advantage of the moment he was in a daze to aim at his eyes and pull the trigger.
“Argh!!!” With a scream, the man’s eyes were directly blown out by her.
Blood sprayed all over Zhou Ying.
Zhou Ying quickly kicked him in the head and knocked him out.
She turned around and fired at the group of bandits again. However, this time, she did not turn off her divine sense. While protecting himself, she also helped Gu Chengrui avoid a lot of fatal moments.
Just as everyone was fighting fiercely, the sound of hooves came from the direction of the dock..
