Chapter 84 You shouldn’t use knives in your own home
The unlocking man froze, and after a while he smiled dryly and said, "Brother, you really know how to joke."
"You are wrong." The old Taoist priest interrupted the lockpicker again, "Old Taoist, I never joke with people I don't know."
The old Taoist priest's words made the unlocking man even more angry. He stopped kneeling and got up from the ground using his hands and feet. He pointed at the old Taoist priest and started to curse.
"You still have the nerve to claim to be a Taoist priest, but I think you are just a devil!"
The old Taoist priest nodded, "You are right."
"."
The lock-picking man was stunned again.
The old Taoist priest always did not follow the routine, which made the lock picker unable to scold him even if he wanted to.
The old Taoist priest became a little impatient, "Should you do it yourself, or should I help you? Taoist, I'm busy and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here."
"I--"
The lock-picking man said just one word before he was interrupted again.
The person who spoke this time was one of the men lying on the ground.
He turned over and sat up, looking at the old Taoist priest hopefully, "Taoist Priest, I didn't open the door, nor was I the one who came here. I only followed because of threats. Can you let me go?"
Without waiting for the old Taoist priest to answer, he continued, "Taoist Master, do you want this kid's hands? I will cut off his hands and give them to you now, so will you let me go?"
Probably because he really wanted to leave immediately, he didn't even wait for the old Taoist priest to answer him. He stood up angrily, picked up the kitchen knife from the ground, and rushed towards the unlocking man.
Seeing this, the other three people also stood up and ran towards the unlocking man, still shouting.
"Taoist Priest, we can also chop off his hand. I hope the Taoist Priest will let us go by then!"
"Taoist Priest, do you only want your hands? I can also help chop off his head."
But in the blink of an eye, the five people were fighting together.
But this scene did not last long.
Although the lockpicking man tried his best to resist, it was obviously of no use. He was already thin and was surrounded by four people at the same time, so there was basically no room for resistance.
As the lockpicker screamed, his hand was cut off.
The blood only spurted out to the other four people in an instant, but because the weather was too cold, the blood at the wound was quickly frozen.
The lock-picking man's eyes widened, the veins around his eyes burst out, and his eyes were filled with red bloodshot eyes.
Because of the pain, he could no longer scream, only his body was still twitching.
The hands that fell to the ground were frozen stiff in just a moment.
The four of them were panting, and they all looked at the old Taoist priest expectantly.
"Taoist Master, can we go?"
The old Taoist priest first looked at the dying man, then at the frozen hands, and finally looked at the four people.
In the expectant eyes of the four people, the old Taoist priest smiled slightly and said in a very calm tone, "No."
The four of them smiled as if they had survived the disaster and thanked them one after another.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
"The Taoist priest is such a good person!"
"Taoist Master, let's leave now. We will never appear in front of Taoist Priest again in the future."
"Thank you, Taoist Master, for giving us the opportunity. We will definitely change our minds and start a new life in the future."
The four of them spoke one sentence after another, completely immersed in the joy they imagined.
The old Taoist priest looked at them calmly and reread what he just said, "I said, you can't leave."
As these words came out, the smiles on all four people's faces disappeared.
"Why? You just said clearly that if you want that kid's hands, we can chop them off for you. You should let us go!"
The old Taoist priest sneered, "I only said I wanted his hands, but I didn't say I'd let you chop him, and I didn't promise to let you go."
The four of them were very angry, but they also looked thoughtful, as if they were recalling what happened before.
It only took a few minutes for the four of them to gather together. After reminiscing, their faces instantly turned pale.
The old Taoist priest indeed never promised them anything from beginning to end.
They were fighting with each other, and without waiting for the old Taoist priest to answer, they took action directly.
The four of them swayed, still a little unwilling.
"Then what do you plan to do with us?"
The old Taoist priest put his hands into his sleeves and raised his arms, "Of course they are the same as the two underground ones."
All the stolen things were stolen into his house, and I saw these supplies in his house. If I really let them go, what would be the difference between letting them go?
Being soft-hearted is the most important thing in the last days.
Especially you cannot be soft-hearted towards those who have designs on you.
After the old Taoist priest came in, Nan Ci did not move or say anything. He just watched the old Taoist priest deal with these people quietly.
Seeing the old Taoist priest's treatment and listening to what the old Taoist priest just said, Nan Ci felt very satisfied.
Although he knew before that the old Taoist priest was not a holy father, Nan Ci still felt relieved.
After all, this is her partner.
How could her partner have the heart of the Virgin Mary and the Father?
Of course, the four people were not willing to die like this. After realizing that they were too weak, the four of them looked at each other, got angry at the same time, and rushed towards the old Taoist priest.
The weapons in their hands have not yet been thrown away, and they directly greeted the old Taoist priest at this time.
In their opinion, the old Taoist priest was thin and didn't seem to have much strength, so he was definitely easier to deal with than Nan Ci.
Even if you can't kill the old Taoist priest directly, you can escape from here as long as you hold him hostage.
Although these people didn't say a word, Nanci could guess what they were planning just by looking at their actions.
But Nan Ci still stood motionless.
She still believed in the ability of the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist didn't disappoint Nan Ci either. When he pulled his hand out of his sleeve, a thin and sharp blade appeared in both hands.
The blade was held in the palm of the old Taoist priest's hand, but the blade was very long, extending from one finger to the palm of his hand. Following the movements of the old Taoist priest, the sharp blade kept moving towards the heads and necks of the four people.
The four of them didn't expect the old Taoist priest to be so powerful at all, and they didn't care about attacking, they just dodged again and again.
But the four of them panicked and only focused on dodging themselves, without any cooperation with each other.
In this way, no one dodged away, but blocked each other.
The four cursed and almost fought each other, but they were stopped by the old Taoist in time.
The sharp blade in the hands of the old Taoist slashed between the necks of the four of them, and the four of them fell to the ground with incredulous eyes, completely silent.
The old Taoist knelt down, rubbed the blade against them, and sighed repeatedly.
"This won't work, no, no, no."
Listening to his endless words, Nanci just felt strange, "Why not?"
The old Taoist priest stood up with the wiped blade and said, "You shouldn't use knives in your own home. Look, the ground is covered with blood. It will be very troublesome to clean up soon."
