Chapter 2215 Can't I just brag?
"There are only eight of us."
Sun Xiaochuan pointed at his men behind him, then at Sun Xiaobai, "Nine if you count this loser."
"Who are you calling trash?"
Sun Xiaobai rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was ready to fight him to the death.
Sun Xiaochuan sneered and drew his sword, "You are not a waste? Come on, let's have a fight! Whoever gives in is a grandson!"
"..."
If I could beat you, why would I run away?
Sun Xiaobai shamelessly changed the subject, "Why are you asking this?"
Sun Xiaochuan looked at him with disdain, knowing that the guy wouldn't dare, but he was also very curious about why Ling Tian suddenly asked this.
Ling Tian raised his hand and pointed behind them, "Someone is heading this way, there are quite a few of them - are you sure they are not in the same group as you?"
"It's someone from Xinghai Pavilion!" Sun Xiaobai said.
Everyone looked at him with puzzled eyes. Sun Xiaochuan frowned and asked, "How do you know? Maybe someone saw us when we came out, thought something happened, and chased us out."
"Impossible, it must be Xinghai Pavilion!"
As for why he was so sure, Sun Xiaobai did not say anything, but insisted that the person who came was from Xinghai Pavilion.
The person was getting closer and closer and had already appeared in sight.
Probably to conceal their tracks, they did not use any lighting equipment and moved forward in the dark.
"If you keep arguing, people will arrive."
Ling Tian pointed to the distance and reminded.
One of Sun Xiaochuan's men took out a telescope, took a look, and then handed it to Sun Xiaochuan.
"There are a lot of them, at least more than 20. Judging from their attire, they are not our people... Xiaobai should be right. They are most likely from Xinghai Pavilion."
In the past, if someone called him Xiaobai, Sun Xiaobai would have gotten angry.
But he knew that now was not the time to argue.
So he said nothing.
Sun Xiaochuan's eyebrows were solemn. "They are the same group of people we met before. They have changed their clothes, but I know the guy in the lead."
Their journey to pursue Sun Xiaobai was not smooth.
I met people from Xinghai Pavilion on the way.
The two sides were evenly matched and fought. At that time, he was in a hurry to chase Sun Xiaobai, so he didn't get too entangled with the other party.
Unexpectedly, the other party gathered more troops and chased after them.
"Could they be passing by?" someone speculated.
Ling Tian denied it, "No, they have a clear target, they are coming for you, do you want to hide?"
"hide?"
Sun Xiaochuan pulled out the sword that he had just sheathed.
He pointed his sword forward and said, "Since we were born, our Sun family has only one mission, and that is to destroy Xinghai Pavilion!"
"Sun Xiaobai, if you have the guts, come with me and kill them together!"
"Do I need you to tell me?" Sun Xiaobai sneered and drew out his weapon - his belt.
His belt was specially made, the buckle was almost as big as his fist, and it weighed at least several kilograms.
He wrapped one end of the belt around his hand and shook it twice.
Sun Xiaochuan glanced at his pants and asked, "Your pants won't fall off while you're fighting, will they?"
"Get out!" Sun Xiaobai said unhappily.
Sun Xiaochuan laughed loudly, "If we can return alive this time, I won't mind you stealing my rations."
"And I will report your merits, and you will be able to eat rations in the future."
"Who cares?" Sun Xiaobai sneered.
When Ling Tian saw this, the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted up.
These people... have a really good attitude.
However, Sun Xiaochuan's people said that there were at least twenty people coming, which seriously underestimated the number of the other side.
There were less than two hundred people from Xinghai Pavilion.
There were only about thirty people in the front, but there was a large group of more than a hundred people following behind.
Their average strength is not as good as Sun Xiaochuan and others, but their numbers are sufficient.
If I don't take action, with the number of people like Sun Xiaochuan... they won't be able to make even a splash if they rush in.
Ling Tian doesn't want to come into conflict with Xinghai Pavilion for the time being.
He said to Sun Xiaochuan: "You'd better get out of the way. It would be better if you can get rid of them..."
"impossible!"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Sun Xiaochuan.
"If I run away, won't people laugh to death when I return?"
"Besides, they are just over 20 people. Killing them is just like cutting melons and vegetables, right?"
He had fought with Xinghai Pavilion more than once or twice. He had been stationed at the border since he was a teenager, and his hands were stained with at least eighty times of blood.
Of course, he didn't mean to look down on Xinghai Pavilion.
If Xinghai Pavilion was really that bad, it would have been destroyed by the four major families long ago.
But it's not in his character to run away when he doesn't have the advantage in numbers.
After thinking for a while, he turned to Ling Tian and said, "But you are not one of us. There is no need for you to stay here and die with us."
"You just said chopping them was like chopping melons and vegetables."
Sun Xiaobai muttered softly.
Sun Xiaochuan said angrily: "It's already this time, can't I just brag a little?"
"..."
It must be said that Sun Xiaobai really deserves a slap in the face for his mouth.
Ling Tian seriously doubted whether Sun Xiaochuan had been chasing him for days and nights simply because he had stolen the rations.
Seeing that this group of people had no intention of retreating, Ling Tian stopped persuading them.
"You're not leaving?"
Sun Xiaochuan gave him a puzzled look.
Ling Tian said calmly: "Don't say anything. I am not in the same group with you. I have no grudge against Xinghai Pavilion. They have no reason to attack me."
"You're wrong about that."
Sun Xiaochuan shook his head and said, "There are no good people in Xinghai Pavilion."
"They commit murder, arson and all kinds of evil. I have seen hundreds of cases over the years."
"And they didn't just target people from our four major families."
“Even people living in their territories are constantly being exploited and oppressed by them.”
"See that over there?"
Sun Xiaochuan pointed to the east and said, "There used to be a village less than two kilometers away from here."
"Just two years ago, everyone in the village was massacred."
"I don't know the reason, but I know that no one survived, not even a three-year-old child."
"After killing people, they burned down the village."
“So you can’t see anything now.”
Hearing this, Ling Tian asked curiously: "If that's the case, why don't they run away?"
"run?"
Sun Xiaochuan asked back: "Where can they run to? The four major families never accept people from Xinghai Pavilion, even if they are just ordinary people."
"Besides the four major families, there is only Xinghai Pavilion."
It’s not that they don’t want to run, but that they can’t run.
All the roads were cut off, so they could only stay in the territory of Xinghai Pavilion and endure the destruction of Xinghai Pavilion.
Perhaps they are also looking forward to turning things around one day.
But the hope is too slim.
No one could save them.
They themselves can't do it, and neither can the four major families.
Having been stationed at the border for these years, Sun Xiaochuan has become accustomed to all this, but he still can't bear to be cruel.
But so what?
He is not the head of the family, but just a small captain stationed on the border.
He only has seven people under his command.
The only thing he could do was to give some food to those who came to him for help.
Apart from that, nothing can be done.
Listening to Sun Xiaochuan's description, Ling Tian could feel the despair of those people.
But like Sun Xiaochuan, he could do nothing.
