Chapter 471: Eating People
After a few breaths, a tiger darted out of the woods and rushed straight toward the carriage team.
Several merchants were scared deathly pale.
This tiger's body didn't look very big, and it was gaunt and bony. It didn't look young either, and even the two canine teeth in its mouth were broken in half... but a tiger is a tiger, and it was not something these few weak merchants could deal with.
The young merchant suddenly said in a low voice.
"There are still two Jianghu people in that carriage—"
The old merchant gripped his short sword and said in a low voice.
"They didn't come down, so we can't count on them. What else can we do? Let them hold the child and fight the tiger to the death! Don't open your mouth, otherwise, you are forcing them to go to their deaths!"
While speaking, the tiger pounced in front of them.
Several people swung their torches, trying to drive it away.
But the tiger suddenly stopped and lay down.
Neither moving forward nor retreating, it just watched them with tiger-like eyes.
Before the few people could react to this eerie situation, the bushes shook again. A long sword probed out, followed by a ferocious, scar-covered face, and a pair of eyes flashing with greed swept over them.
"Heh—heh—"
"Bring, the goods, follow, me—"
The tone was difficult and strange, carrying a whistling gasping sound; rather than human speech, it was more like the low roar of a wild beast.
This person... let's call him a person, was nine feet tall, a head taller than Li Miao. His body was majestic, wearing an outer garment made of animal skins, and he was covered in scars from head to toe. Most importantly...
Li Miao and Wu Mingxiao poked their heads out of the carriage.
"Eh?"
Li Miao actually gave a light exclamation.
"Hehe, interesting, interesting!"
"Too interesting!"
Wu Mingxiao didn't understand why, but seeing Li Miao's eyes flickering and the corners of his mouth curling up slowly.
It was clearly the same smile as before, but Wu Mingxiao suddenly felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and even his hands couldn't help but tremble.
"Li... Big Brother..."
Li Miao turned his head and smiled at him.
"Young brother, do you know the Ming Sect?"
Wu Mingxiao nodded hesitantly.
"I know... naturally I know. Didn't the Ming Sect perish the year before last? They said they committed the crime of assassinating the Emperor, and the whole sect was buried in the capital..."
"In the Jianghu, they all say the Ming Sect leader was occupied by that Embroidered Uniform Guard Guard Commander, lost her purity, was then abandoned, and finally went crazy and did this, and then was killed by that Guard Commander—"
Li Miao's smile stiffened.
"Stop, stop, stop, no, that's not what I meant. Speaking of which, where did you hear this?"
"Forget it, let's talk about the present."
Li Miao pointed at the wild man outside and said.
"You know about the Ming Sect's assassination of the Emperor, which was finally done by the descendants of the Ming Sect's former leader Yang Lixuan, right? You know that the Yang family passes down from generation to generation, what is their most prominent feature?"
Wu Mingxiao nodded; he naturally knew, but he didn't understand why Li Miao would bring this up at this time... suddenly, he widened his eyes violently, staring fixedly at the wild man who had darted out of the mountain forest.
Because the wild man's appearance was too fierce, he hadn't noticed the most important point just now—besides being extremely majestic, the person's arms were also extremely long, and if they hung down, they could completely touch his knees!
This was exactly the characteristic of the Yang family!
"Big Brother Li, this!"
Li Miao waved his hand and smiled.
"That's why I said it's interesting."
"Listen to me, don't move. With me here, he can't hurt anyone; we have to watch this big show to our heart's content."
The matter was divided into two parts; after the wild man finished speaking, seeing that the few merchants didn't move, he waved the long sword in his hand violently.
*Crash! —*
This sword strike, along with the ground and trees, cut a sword mark a zhang long and the depth of a thumb!
"Follow me!!!"
The thin tiger lying on the ground also stood up and roared violently.
*Roar! —*
*Clang! * The short sword fell to the ground.
Several merchants slowly placed their hands on their heads.
Only then did the wild man nod with satisfaction and wave his hand.
