Lou Yi’s eyes gradually brightened, with the instructor here, he could let go and do it!
...
The sun gradually set in the west, the moon rose above the clouds, and the cold wind howled.
Who knows how much ti passed.
"It seems he intends to watch you die." Man Slaughter sneered, "Just a coward, not worth overestimating."
"A man is not a gentleman if he’s narrow-minded, and is no man if he’s not cruel." A strange look flashed in Iron Hand’s eyes, "If I were him, I definitely wouldn’t co out to die; only by living can he seek revenge in the future."
"Haha, exactly!" Chief Wang laughed recklessly, "As long as he’s not a fool, he won’t co out!"
Hearing this, despair flashed in the eyes of the villagers of Erhe Village.
They were already so exhausted that they didn’t even have the strength to curse at Lou Yi.
Madam Cheng held the drowsy Gou Wa, sitting on the grass, looking numbly ahead.
The old lady of the Liu Family fainted on the ground, talking in her sleep.
Madam Chang leaned against a tree, continuously dry heaving, her mouth full of bloody foam.
The villagers of Erhe Village seed as if they were in a human hell...
At this mont.
Ta ta ta...
"Hm?"
The swordsman Chief Wang suddenly turned his head, looking towards the west side.
Ta-ta-ta...
Ta-ta-ta...
Ta ta ta!
The sound of footsteps gradually grew louder, everyone raised their heads, eyes converging on the direction the sound ca from.
Until a tall, familiar figure erged from the woods.
His face calm, he said, "Capture , and you can release them?"
This person was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a heroic spirit on his face, wheat-colored skin, standing six feet tall.
Wearing old cloth clothes, but unable to hide the smooth muscle lines, it was Lou Yi himself.
"Of course." Inspector Cao erged from sowhere, with a proud and relaxed smile on his face, "Called them here just to find you. Mission accomplished, naturally no reason to keep them.
I, too, need reputation!"
All around, the officers and soldiers slowly moved towards Lou Yi in a circular encirclent, their expressions cautious, daring not to be careless at all.
The encounters of the past few days had made them all aware of Lou Yi’s strength, comparable to a chief constable, even more troubleso, killing ordinary people as easily as slaughtering pigs.
"Alright! What does it matter if Lou Yi surrenders? I just hope you all keep your promise!" Lou Yi shouted as he opened his chest.
His voice shook the mountains and forests, startling a flock of birds into flight, even reaching several miles away.
Upon hearing this.
Inspector Cao’s smile froze, his eyes becoming profound.
The captains and officers present looked at each other, seemingly in disbelief.
As for the villagers of Erhe Village, they all lifted their heads in astonishnt.
The onlooking crowd on the outskirts also heard it, each showing a look of shock, gathering towards where the sound ca from.
"No way, he really surrendered?"
"Is this guy an idiot?"
"No way, it’s fake, surely a trick!"
On the scene.
Lou Yi walked forward with big strides.
Those officers and soldiers surrounding him were instead so startled that they continually retreated, not daring to act rashly.
So even dropped their knives in fright and forgot to pick them up.
"Co, put in shackles!" Lou Yi shouted.
Looking at the large number of enemies around, as if they were nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs.
The atmosphere froze for a mont.
"Alright, you are quite a character! I won’t participate in this capture!" Chief Li of Sanwan Village took a deep look at Lou Yi and turned to leave.
As for the other officers and soldiers, naturally unwilling to miss out on such great credit, seeing that Lou Yi was not feigning surrender, they hurriedly rushed up!
...
Once the officers and soldiers ca out, everyone outside saw Lou Yi’s situation.
A wooden shackle, a foot thick, was around his neck, his hands fixed in the holes on it.
His wrists were bound by iron chains, the surface of the shackle inlaid with iron pieces, showing its sturdiness.
His feet were shackled with fine steel, hair disheveled, body stained with blood, in a sorry state indeed.
"This wooden shackle is made of century-old hardwood, only a martial artist might break free!"
"His tendons in his feet and hands have been severed!" An observant person exclaid in horror.
Upon hearing this, everyone widened their eyes.
"This is equivalent to a cripple!"
"Now he can really only wait for death!"
"Truly a righteous man! Truly a righteous man!" More people were sighing like this.
"Uncle Lou, Uncle Lou!" With a bundled topknot, Gou Wa suddenly ran out from behind the woods, ca to Lou Yi, and hugged his leg, crying.
Tears soaked his dusty little face, making it even dirtier, "You didn’t have to worry about , you didn’t have to!"
Lou Yi’s blood-stained face showed a gentle smile.
He struggled to squat down, gently stroking Gou Wa’s filthy head with his elbow, "From now on, listen to your mother more."
"I will, Uncle Lou, don’t go..." Gou Wa cried.
"Take care!"
Madam Cheng was also full of tears, holding Gou Wa tightly, letting him watch Lou Yi being escorted by a group of officers and soldiers, stumbling away.
The other people in Erhe Village were all relieved, finally getting enough water and food.
So leaned against trees to rest, others sat on the ground, all looking at Lou Yi’s back with complex expressions.
Although they were captured because of Lou Yi’s involvent.
But Lou Yi sacrificing his life to save them, this behavior that only appears in operatic tales, shocked everyone.
"Cao Tianlin, if you dare to secretly harm Lou Yi, I will definitely go to the City Lord’s Mansion and report!"
Landlord Jia, with a group of servants, watched Inspector Cao with a grim face and warned.
Afraid that Lou Yi would be killed on the way.
Inspector Cao wasn’t angry, only said blandly, "Lou Yi’s cris are severe, there will be the great law of justice to deal with it, he should be publicly executed to warn others."
After speaking, he waved his hand.
A group of officers and soldiers escorted Lou Yi onto a prison cart, with only his head exposed outside the cart fra.
"First take him back to the dungeon, then escort him into the city along with the big bandit from Sunset Mountain." Inspector Cao instructed Man Slaughter.
Lou Yi stood in the prison cart, eyes numbed.
Yet his heart sighed in relief, the hardest part was over.
Inspector Cao definitely had to send him alive to Tai City, to please the Heavy Sword Sect, to make up for his mistake.
This made the maneuver space bigger.
"Kid, I can’t be with you always, are you sure about entering the prison like this?"
In his ear, ca the voice of Instructor Lin.
Lou Yi nodded imperceptibly.
Instructor Lin made no more sound, not knowing if he really left.
"Inspector Cao, everyone participated this ti, shouldn’t we pass by our governnt office and brand him, make an impression?" Chief Wang of Yong’an Village suggested, imdiately receiving agreent from the other chiefs.
Lou Yi was the criminal assigned by the City Lord’s Mansion, other governnt offices were afraid of being robbed of the credit, all wanting to hold evidence.
This demand was not excessive, it would just delay a few days, Inspector Cao thought about it and agreed.
Once discussed, he and Iron Hand laughed and rode away, other officials from various villages returned as well.
During those days of surrounding Lou Yi, many had neglected their main jobs, and had to quickly make up for it upon returning.
Leaving only a dozen or so officers, led by Man Slaughter, to guard Lou Yi who had beco a useless person, no longer possible to stir trouble.
anwhile.
Lou Yi’s deed of exchanging his life for the safety of his fellow villagers spread wildly in the outer city of Tai City.
Even a scholar wrote this event into a storybook.
Righteous Lou Da Lang quickly beca a household na, truly surpassing his father Lou Scholar.
