"If you guys are still sensible, hand over everything valuable you have taken with!" The leader of the bandits said with a grin, he held a broadsword with sharp blade in hand and pointed it at Wong Wai.
"Leave the carriage and the horses!" There were also bandits who were so greedy that they didn't even let go of the carriages and horses.
Although Wong Wai and the others had a serious expression, there was no panic in their eyes. The area around Tan Yang was filled with bandits, and the four guards had all seen this kind of situation before, but they did not expect that on the main road leading to the capital, there would actually be people who dared to blatantly come out and rob them. Their manpower are obviously much less than the brandits’.
This place was not far from the Liantang Town, it wouldn't take long for them even if they give the horse carriage and horses to the bandits, but these bandits were bandits, so how could they be easily dealt with?
"Butler, what should we do?" Shi Duner's palms were sweating nervously, he did not dare to breathe too loudly.
With a sullen face, the butler took out the envelope from the bag and stuffed it back into his collar. He then wrapped the bag again and carried it on his shoulder, "We might be running for our lives in a while. Carry the bag well."
"What are you dawdling for? Do you want to experience my broadsword? Lift up the curtain of the carriage and let me see what kind of people are inside!" The bandits outside were already hooting impatiently.
Wong Wai moved closer to the window of the carriage and said to the inside in a low voice: "There are over 10 bandits here, and they all have weapons in their hands. It seems they are accustomed to use weapons, and it’s difficuly for the four of us to deal with them. Uncle Li, you and Shi Duner get down first, we will open up an exit for you guys in a while, and you just run along this path, don't stop, we will catch up later. "
"Okay, little brother Wang, you must be careful!" The butler said.
With that, the butler lifted the curtain of the carriage and got off with Shi Dun’er.
When the bandits saw that there were two men alighting from the carriage, they immediately revealed looks of disappointment. "Pah! Why are there two men? How unlucky."
"Honored masters, please do well. We will give you the silver and carriage, just let us pass through." Butler bowed slightly.
"Cut the crap, bring the baggage over. If you dawdle any longer, I'll slaughter you!" The bandit cursed.
The butler gave an eye to Wong Wai and the others, and pretended that he would pass the parcels to the bandits, then brought Shi Duner to walk towards them.
When the bandits saw that these people were so tactful, they all became proud of themselves and looked at the butler and the others with malice in their eyes, "Go quickly!"
The butler and Shi Dun’er were getting closer slowly. Just as the bandits were getting carried away, Wong Wai and the rest suddenly rushed out from behind the butler and Shi Dun’er!
Coachman Old Sixth followed along with a long rod in his hand, quickly running towards the butler and Shi Dun’er. As he passed by them, he shouted: "Run!"
Wong Wai and the other three suddenly took action, catching the bandits by surprise. As they rushed over, they intentionally stabbed the hourse in the butt, causing the horse to howl in pain as it rushed towards the bandits. The situation suddenly became chaotic.
He had really opened up a path for them to run together. Seeing that, the butler grabbed Shi Dun’er and quickly ran.
"Don't let them get away!"
"Damn it, kill them all!"
The bandits couldn’t stop cursing. Some of them pulled on ropes and tripped the horses, causing Shi Dun’er to trip accidentally. He subconsciously grabbed hold of the butler and pulled him forward as well, being thrown into the air.
Seeing that, Wong Wai's group of four cursed in their hearts, the short moment of opportunity just now was already gone, and if the butler and Shi Dun’er wanted to stand up and rush towards it, they would no longer have that chance.
The only person who seized this opportunity to rush out was the Coachman Old Sixth with a pole in his hand. That fellow did not even turn his head, he ran very quickly, and two bandits wanted to chase after him, but were unable to do so. They just could return in a huff.
"Let's see where else you can run to. Kill them all!" The bandit leader looked at the butler and the others, his furious face filled with killing intent.
Although Wong Wai and the rest immediately rushed to the butler and Shi Duner's side, surrounding them, in the midst of the chaos, Shi Duner was still cut on the shoulder.
It was difficult for two fists to fight against four hands, not to mention that they had to protect two people who didn't understand martial arts.
The situation was terrible.
Just as they were in despair, suddenly, in the rain, other than them, there was actually someone coming from the entrance of the mountain road!
The sounds of the hooves of the horses were fast but orderly.
There were a lot of people!
Wong Wai and the rest were ecstatic as they turned to look.
Only seeing that in the midst of the increasing rain, a team of riders came out of mountain road. All of them were dressed in gray and black robes, their auras were sharp and respectful!
"Help —!"
