C182 An Arrow in the Dark Is Hard to Defend Against

The Lamam Temple in the south of the city had always been a place with rich incense offerings. Legend has it that there was an eminent monk in the Western Regions who once passed by this place and taught the people of the world. Later, after the eminent monk passed away, the locals built this temple to commemorate him. Later on, the Tibetan Buddhism spread to the Central Plains, and many locals began to accept the Tibetan Buddhism. The monks here also gradually became lamas.

There was a big pear tree in front of the lama temple. Under the big pear tree was an iron incense burner. The incense burner was already variegated and variegated, seeming to be quite old. Every day, there would be believers coming and going to stay here. They would like to offer incense, pray for their families, and pray for the Buddha.

These days finally came to an end one day. When Ding Gu came here, he found that the Feng Shui here was really good. The establishment of the temple was really good. On a small hill, there were no other roads in the back of the temple. There was only a dense forest.

There was only one way to go through the front door. In other words, if someone wanted to come up from the foot of the mountain. . . That was the only way.

Ding Gu found that this road had a special feature, which was that it was curved. It was impossible to see where the lama temple was on the road. He could only see the direction of the temple clearly on the straight road that was closest to the temple.

This kind of structure was really ingenious. The Bamboo Gang itself was not strong, and they had never been convinced by others in the martial arts world, so they had offended many people in the martial arts world. When Ding Gu saw this terrain, he immediately realized that it was naturally built for the Bamboo Gang.

This place could be attacked and defended, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The path leading to the foot of the mountain was a narrow path, but the mountain was vast and vast, and there were farms everywhere. There was no need to worry about the lack of food.

Ding Gu chased all the lamas on the mountain down the mountain. The fields in the mountain became the land of Bamboo Gang. At this point, Ding Gu finally settled down. Many years later, although the Bamboo Gang's power wasn't considered big, it still had over two hundred disciples. In Gusu, they were definitely a reputable sect.

Xiao Nanfeng's decision to deal with such a sect alone was really worrying. Shen Qiutong thought that even if Xiao Nanfeng had other motives, the only one who could stand up for the Shen family was Xiao Nanfeng, so she couldn't let anything happen to him.

Shen Qiutong knew this very well, because she knew that in the near future, the Shen family would encounter an unprecedented disaster, which would be after Shen Donghui's return.

Of course, there was no so-called vault in Chuyun Peak. All of this was fabricated by Shen Qiutong. Of course, it was to lure Shen Donghui away temporarily, and then slowly transport the people of the family out.

But each time, only three to five people could leave. In the huge Shen family, there were hundreds of family members. It was easier said than done to separate them all. Shen Qiutong must face Shen Donghui face to face. Shen Qiutong's own abilities were not enough to play around with. She even thought of perishing together with Shen Donghui, but that was also extremely impossible.

In front of Shen Donghui, Shen Qiutong was always a child. How could a child fight with an adult? Shen Qiutong naturally could not, but Xiao Nanfeng could.

Not only was Xiao Nanfeng not a child, he was also Hero Kuan Dong. He was a real adult. In front of this person, Shen Qiutong felt that Shen Donghui at least had some fear. Even if Xiao Nanfeng could not subdue Shen Donghui, he would definitely not let Shen Donghui get any advantage.

Shen Qiutong thought about it and still decided to go and have a long talk with Xiao Nanfeng. She could not let go of her heart. This was not easy for Shen Qiutong because she understood Xiao Nanfeng's current important position.

"Master, can you not go first? This matter is not urgent after all. " Shen Qiutong sighed and said slowly.

Xiao Nanfeng glanced at Shen Qiutong and pulled her hand away. "What is it? Why are you looking for me now? If there is nothing wrong, there is no harm in me going to solve it. After all, it will not take much time. "

Shen Qiutong shook her head with a troubled expression, "It is not as easy as Master thought. Although this Bamboo Gang does not have any deadly skills, they have no less than 200 men under them. I am afraid it will not be an easy task to solve this gang in a short period of time. "

Xiao Nanfeng also nodded. "You are right. After all, I'm only one person. How about this, you bring two jars of good wine. After I finish drinking, I'll become a lot of people. When the time comes, I won't be afraid of them anymore. "

Shen Qiutong could not help but laugh but quickly kept it, "Master. I am really not joking. This matter is indeed very serious. Even if the Bamboo Gang came to find me, it wouldn't be a matter of a day or two. As long as they go down the mountain and reach our territory. . . Then we can slowly waste our time with them. If you go up there alone. . . If anything happens, we won't even be able to take care of them. "

Xiao Nanfeng patted Shen Qiutong on the shoulder and smiled. "You have also learned to care about people!" As soon as he said this, his face changed. How did this sound like the words of someone he had just met?

Shen Qiutong's face also revealed a doubtful expression. She seemed to feel that this person's tone was exactly the same as Xiao Nanfeng's! She was just about to speak when someone suddenly shouted. "Not good, not good, it's on fire!"

Just as they were talking, the grain warehouse in the backyard suddenly caught on fire. The whole family relied on the food in the grain warehouse to make a living every day, but the fire was completely burned away.

Shen Qiutong did not have time to suspect Xiao Nanfeng's identity and hurriedly ran towards the grain storehouse. But by the time she arrived, the fire was already out of control. The old and young ran out and cried loudly.

It was really raining when there was a leak in the house. The impact of the heavens on the Shen family was just too great. This granary was the biggest asset on the Shen family's account at the moment, but its significance was not only property. This food was also the life of the Shen family!

Shen Qiutong stood in front of the fire. The fire lit her face red. She did not move. In a blink of an eye, the fire had covered the roof. The materials on the roof were burned and fell from all directions. The biggest beam smashed heavily towards Shen Qiutong.

She was still immersed in the misfortune and did not notice the appearance of the beam at all. Just when the beam was about to hit Shen Qiutong, Xiao Nanfeng suddenly rushed over and stabbed the beam with a black gold knife. He shouted sternly, "Leave quickly!"

Shen Qiutong finally reacted. She was scared half to death and quickly retreated. At this moment, another beam was also smashing towards her. Xiao Nanfeng held the Dark Gold Blade in one hand and the wine gourd in the other.

Shen Qiutong shouted crazily outside but was pulled by someone and unable to rush in. Xiao Nanfeng laughed loudly and the beam had already smashed down. The last time Shen Qiutong could see Xiao Nanfeng was when Xiao Nanfeng was drinking.

At that moment, Shen Qiutong's heart seemed to melt. She did not feel that the ugly face in front of her was ugly. Instead, she felt that this was the cutest appearance.

Unfortunately, she knew too late. No matter how cute the face was, it seemed that it had already turned into ashes. The fire gradually set the entire courtyard on fire. Xiao Nanfeng would die for sure.

Shen Qiutong stood blankly on the spot. Her supporters did not allow her to do anything stupid. She did not know what to do in her heart. Now, she wanted to find a place to cry. But she could not cry in front of her clansmen. That wasn't something a patriarch should do.

The tribe leader was the tribe leader because she had a stronger heart than her tribe members. She had goals and responsibilities that ordinary people did not have. Therefore, no matter how much she suffered, no matter how sad her heart was, she could not cry. If she cried, she would lose.

Suddenly, a flame burst into the sky. A figure dashed out from the fire and saw that the person was drinking. His clothes were torn and tattered. Wasn't this the Xiao Nanfeng who was submerged in the fire just now?

Shen Qiutong looked at Xiao Nanfeng with tears of joy. She suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart. This man seemed to have a natural attraction. This irresistible force seemed to have firmly sucked Shen Qiutong's heart away.

Xiao Nanfeng laughed loudly. "Haha, look. If it wasn't for this pot of wine, I really wouldn't be able to come out. Sometimes, this wine is really good stuff!"

Shen Qiutong did not know if this wine was really good or not. She only knew that this man in front of her was definitely not a bad thing because he saved her life. She threw herself into his wide arms and cried to her heart's content. Xiao Nanfeng knew that this girl had suffered too many disasters. It was time for her to cry.

She only dared to cry in this man's arms. Of course, she didn't let her clansmen see her crying. After a long time, the fire was put out by everyone. Shen Qiutong also fell asleep.

This night was really tiring. Almost the entire Gusu knew about the misfortune of Shen family. However, they felt that this was nothing to Shen family. At least, they could easily buy this little amount of food. It was just a matter of money.

When Shen Qiutong woke up, Xiao Nanfeng was already nowhere to be seen. There was a piece of paper on the table. There were only a few short words written on it, "Wait for me to finish eating. " These few words looked simple but it was really not easy. Shen Qiutong understood what this meant to Xiao Nanfeng.

In just one day, he had to take care of a two-hundred-man gang. This was simply a pipe dream. However, Xiao Nanfeng really did have to do this. What exactly was the reason that made him make up his mind?

Shen Qiutong stretched her body and walked out of the door. There was a burst of sobbing outside. Shen Qiutong did not understand what had happened. Walking past the bedroom, passing through a small garden, they arrived at the front hall. There were three corpses on the floor, all covered with white cloth.

Shen Qiutong panicked a little. One of the corpses was clearly a child, only half the height of a person. When everyone saw Shen Qiutong come out, they all surrounded her.

Shen Qiutong seemed to understand what had happened. Trembling, she walked up and opened the first cloth. It was her cousin, Shen Qiuyan, who she had just married into Dugu family.

Shen Qiuyan's face was full of scars. It was obvious that she had been beaten up countless times. There was only a piece of linen wrapped around her body. It seemed that she was naked when she found her.

Shen Qiutong did not want to think about what she had encountered and her stomach contracted. She even felt like vomiting. She took a deep breath and lifted the second piece of cloth. It was an aged face. The oldest uncle of the clan was lying peacefully on the ground. Everything had nothing to do with him. His eyes were tightly shut. He didn't say a single word, the wise decision of the past. At this moment, it was all gone.

Shen Qiutong's eyes were a little red and swollen. She did not want to cry in front of her clansmen. But her tears did not live up to expectations and slowly rolled down. When she lifted the third piece of cloth, Shen Qiutong's tears suddenly stopped. Her eyes were no longer filled with tears. Instead, it was fury. Her thirteen year old nephew was lying quietly on the ground. His entire body was covered with wounds. There was almost no place that was not cut by a knife.

This method was really too cruel. Even if it was a heinous person, he would not do such a vicious thing. This kind of person was almost like a beast. Shen Qiutong heavily fell to the ground. Before the crowd went forward to support her, she had already slowly stood up.

Her sadness did not last long. It was more of hatred. Without thinking, it was obvious that this was done by the same group of people. This group of people was called Bamboo Gang.

Shen Qiutong swore that she would make the name of the Bamboo Gang disappear from the world! But what right did she have? Could it be that she could take care of more than two hundred people with martial arts just by being hot-blooded? This was simply a pipe dream.

She finally understood the importance of strength. It was right for her father to withdraw from the pugilistic world. This pugilistic world was truly a bloody battlefield. Besides her father, there was no one else in the Shen family who was suitable to survive in this pugilistic world.

The cruel Pugilistic World had wiped away the last bit of longing Shen Qiutong had for it. She finally saw the true face of the Pugilistic World. Other than killing, there was nothing else. Even if it was an unarmed old man, woman, or child, they would never let it go.

"They left behind three corpses and a letter. " The servant beside her handed the letter to Shen Qiutong. This letter had clearly been torn. Before Shen Qiutong could ask, the servant had already explained, "Mr. Zhou insisted on reading it. After reading it, he angrily ran out. "

Shen Qiutong's heart trembled slightly for a moment. She opened the envelope and took out the letter. The letter was indeed written by Ding Gu.

Seeing the letter as if it was written on his face, Shen Da Villa Lord. A few days ago, an unfilial disciple of mine came to your mansion to disturb you. Fortunately, I received a lesson from an expert of your mansion. For this, I deeply express my gratitude. However, my family had traveled the Jianghu with the Bamboo Joint Blade in my hand for many years. The Bamboo Joint Blade of an unfilial disciple was also taught by my family. However, it was my fault that I was cut off from your family and lost all my face.

When a person was in the martial world, he had no choice but to do so. They had been in the martial arts world for many years and had never suffered any losses to others. This time, the three of them acted as a warning. They chatted with each other to express their feelings and hope that Shen Villa Lord would accept them with a smile.

Every sentence that pierced the heart, Shen Qiutong wished that she could tear this letter to pieces. Three lives were just to save his lost face. This kind of thing, no matter who it was, knew what was more important. This debt was not settled yet. Shen Qiutong swore in her heart.
