After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Qingyuan, walk slower." Lin An said in a soft voice.

Qing Yuan didn't understand why, but he obeyed the order and slowed down the carriage. Qing Wu behind him also slowed down.

The two carriages moved forward slowly. When they reached a bend, they suddenly saw a big tree fallen in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

Qingyuan hurriedly stopped the carriage. Noticing the movement, Li, Lin Shuyue and the other two siblings quickly came out of the carriage and stood beside Lin An.

Li pulled out the whip from his waist and pressed the switch on the handle. Sharp barbs instantly appeared on the whip. They looked at the woods on both sides vigilantly.

Suddenly, more than twenty ferocious-looking men suddenly jumped out from the silent forest and surrounded the two carriages with knives in their hands.

Seeing this, Qing Wu, who was in the carriage behind, quickly jumped out, walked quickly to Lin An, and looked at the group of people vigilantly.

At this time, a very tall and strong man walked out of the crowd. He looked like the leader of this group of people. He stared at the expressionless Lin An and others with a sinister look.

A gust of wind blew, and the leaves in the woods on both sides rustled. The two sides were facing each other, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.

After a short stalemate, the leader glanced at Li and Lin Shuyue, then smiled sinisterly and swung the knife in his hand forward: "Brothers, leave these two women behind and kill the rest."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than twenty big men rushed up with knives in hand, and the leader also rushed over aggressively with a knife in his hand.

"Mother, leave him alive."

Lin Shuyue said quickly, then exchanged a glance with her father and two brothers.

The four men poured their internal energy into their hands, and when those people rushed to them, they punched the bandits hard, and their internal energy shattered the thieves' internal organs in an instant.

Qing Wu found the right moment, quickly picked up a fallen knife from the ground, and slashed hard at the thief who was rushing towards him.

Qingyuan had no martial arts skills, so he followed Lin An's instructions and hid behind the carriage, picking up stones on the ground and throwing them at those people from time to time.

At the same time, Li swung the whip and lashed at the leader's arm.

The leader was unable to dodge and the whip hit his arm hard with such force that it seemed as if his bones were about to break. The barbs on the Red Cloud Whip also penetrated deeply into his flesh.

The severe pain made him unable to hold the knife, and it fell to the ground with a clang.

"Ah! You stinky bitch, I'm going to kill you!"

He endured the pain and tried to shake off the whip, but unexpectedly Li sneered and pulled the whip back violently, scraping off a large piece of flesh from his arm, causing him to let out a shrill scream.

Li took advantage of the victory and lashed at him again with the whip in his hand, beating him so hard that he had no power to fight back.

In a moment, more than 20 bandits fell to the ground, breathless. Only the leader was left curled up on the ground, his body covered with bloody wounds.

Qingwu and Qingyuan looked at Lin An and others with shining eyes. They didn't expect that the master's family were actually martial arts masters.

"It turns out that hitting someone with your fists feels so good!" Lin Shuyue looked at her still white and tender fists and felt a little excited.

"Okay, stop doing weird things and interrogate him first." Lin An touched her head lovingly.

Then he walked up to the leader and asked sternly, "Who are you? Why are you ambushing us here?"

The leader's face turned pale with pain, but he still clenched his teeth and said nothing.

If he had known that this group of people were so powerful, he would not have made this trip even if he was paid several times more silver.

At this time, Li took a step forward, staring at him with sinister eyes, then she shook the whip, and the pieces of meat hanging on it fell off one after another. The scene was very strange and creepy.

The leader was so frightened that he begged for mercy: "I said..."

Li nodded in satisfaction and stepped aside.

"We...we are from the Qingyun Gang..." he stammered.

"We have no grudge against you, why do you want to kill us?" Lin An asked.

"Because... because someone paid to buy your lives, and also asked us to..." The bandit leader glanced at Li and Lin Shuyue with a trembling voice, "Capture... away."

The Lin family was shocked when they heard this and shouted, "Who is it?"

The leader was a little hesitant at first, but when he saw Li approaching with a whip, he said hurriedly, "Don't hit me, I don't know who that man is!"

"Tell the truth if you want to live!" Lin Shuyue stared at him with cold eyes.

"I said, I said."

"We in the Qingyun Gang have always been involved in murder and kidnapping business."

"Last night, a thin man wearing a mask came to our hall, gave us 1,000 taels of silver, and asked us to ambush you halfway on the road to Sishui County the next day and kill you."

He glanced at the Lin family secretly and spoke more and more quietly.

Lin An was a little confused when he heard this: "How did you know we were going back to Sishui County today? Also, aren't you afraid of killing the wrong person?"

The leader shook his head and said, "Because the man gave us two portraits, portraits of the lady and the young lady, and he also said that you will return to Sishui County today."

Upon hearing this, Lin An and his companions frowned. Who did they make enemies with?

"That person said that he had arrested me and my mother. Where were we sent to? How are you going to contact each other?" Lin Shuyue continued to ask.

"That man asked us to take you two to the ruined temple in the east of the city, and then draw a circle on the stone at the entrance of the ruined temple. If their people see it, someone will come over at night."

Lin Shuyue pondered for a moment, asked Qingwu and Qingyuan to watch him, and pulled his parents and two brothers aside.

"Dad, Mom, why don't we just take advantage of their own tactic and get rid of them all at once, so that they won't keep staring at us like rats in a gutter." Lin Shuyue suggested.

Lin An was a little hesitant, fearing that his wife and daughter might be in danger.

"I agree with Xiaoya's suggestion. If we don't solve it this time, there will be a next time." A hint of cruelty flashed in Li's eyes.

Lin Shuyuan and Lin Shuyan also agreed, but they proposed to go into the city together and guard around the ruined temple just in case.

After the discussion, Lin An asked the little leader to pick out an untorn piece of clothing from the pile of corpses on the ground and put it on, and also applied some hemostatic medicine to him.

After confirming that there were no clues, he took him and the group turned the carriage around and headed towards the provincial capital.

On the way, Lin Shuyue carefully questioned the small leader about the situation of the Qingyun Gang and learned that their gang had only about a hundred people and they specialized in collecting money from wealthy families and doing shameful things for them.

Five miles away from the city gate, the group stopped and Lin An ordered Qingyuan and Qingwu to guard the two carriages at the city gate.

Lin Shuyue fed the little leader a pill of Qi Jue Powder and threatened him to cooperate, otherwise he would collect his body in seven days.

The little leader nodded repeatedly with a pale face, indicating that he would definitely cooperate with them.

After entering the city, the group quickly headed towards the east of the city.

When they were almost at the ruined temple, Lin An winked at Li and Lin Shuyue, then hid with his two sons.

Lin Shuyue and Li were frightened and were escorted by the little leader towards the ruined temple. At this time, they noticed a hidden gaze sweeping towards them.
