Dream Travel

Chapter 73 You think beautifully
"Use more force!" Bai Mu shouted while checking his pistol. The police pistol in Rota City was of much lower quality than the one he used, but it was still usable.

However, the problem of ammunition means that the gun is disposable in his hands and it is useless once the magazine is empty.

Thinking about what he was going to face next, Bai Mu missed the rifle he had left at home even more. He should also bring the chainsaw!
Bai Mu finished checking the weapons, but River still didn't knock on the door. Bai Mu couldn't stand it anymore, so he stuffed a few magazines into his pockets, closed the suitcase and walked over.

This time, he didn't need to knock on the door. The owner of the house opened it on his own initiative. It was a nervous woman: "You, what do you want to do?"

Bai Mu saw that the man in the house was holding a kitchen knife, and the threat was slightly higher.

"Where are the children Denise left behind?"

"What, what child?" The hostess of the house pretended not to know.

But the girl hiding inside heard Bai Mu's words and decisively threw the ball. Before the male owner could intercept her, she ran out and asked, "Do you know Denise?"

"I don't know him, but we'll get to know him soon. Let's be friends first." Bai Mu pushed the unresponsive River and placed the locked suitcase at the door. He said to the panicked young couple, "Remember to return it to me later."

He took out a crossbow and installed it, then said to River: "You guys are playing here, I can catch you even if you run away. Then it won't be as simple as eating a barbecue or two."

River's expression was painful. Whenever Bai Mu mentioned barbecue, the scene of him being a barbecue devil would involuntarily appear in River's mind. Smelling the unpleasant smell of burning, Bai Mu actually asked her to add two more firewood!
After giving his instructions, Bai Mu left. Instead of passively waiting for the invasion of the robbers, what he wanted to do was to take the initiative to attack.

But after he left, the two girls fell into silent silence, one was withdrawn and the other was not much better.

Finally the lady of the house pulled them into the house, and the young couple sighed to each other.

The town pooled their money to hire a great sword to get rid of the demon, and they also had an adopted daughter, doubly happy. But suddenly another person who looked like a demon showed up, and even if he wasn't, he didn't seem quite normal.

What is going on? The place where they live is surrounded by mountains and they can't run away.

Then they looked at River. They had some impression of this child, but the impression was not deep. Now it was a formal meeting. The hostess thought of something and checked River's arm.

It was discovered that her condition was very similar to Claire's, both of them had scars of abuse.

"Do you know who that person is?" the hostess of the house asked River softly.

River shook her head and didn't want to speak. After Baimu left, she suddenly felt that it was more difficult to speak in front of others.

"Another poor child." The hostess looked at Claire, but the girl's attention was no longer here.

Even though the 'Silver-Eyed Witch' had left, she still missed her. Coupled with the words left by Bai Mu, she was now thinking about that outsider as well.

Even if Claire were asked to run away now, she wouldn't want to.

Outside the town, Bai Mu found a suitable high ground and set up his crossbow.

He didn't know when the bandits would come, but he had already had a meal in the town, and they hadn't come yet, so they wouldn't come too soon.

But he could wait a little longer.

A large number of horse hoof sounds were heard from afar. The villagers near the town entrance were puzzled by the sounds and looked outside the town, their expressions immediately becoming panicked.

Demons eat people slowly, robbers don’t eat people, they kill people!

The sinister-looking man at the front burst into laughter as soon as he rushed into the town: "Hahahaha, we have to thank that silver-eyed witch for getting rid of the demons here..."

A crossbow arrow pierced through the man's head. The man's laughter stopped abruptly and he fell off his horse. The younger brothers who followed him were stunned. They looked towards the place where the crossbow arrow came from.

A strong young man was stringing a crossbow. After placing a new arrow on it, he aimed at another bandit who was missing a hand without hesitation.

The robber wanted to reach out and intercept the crossbow arrow, but the arm he stretched out had no hand.

"The boss is dead! Run away!" The robbers rushed out of the town in panic.

"Don't run, I'm alone." Bai Mu was a little anxious because these bandits were so cowardly. They ran away after only two of them died. Can't you be more passionate and stand up to avenge your boss?
Throwing away the crossbow in his hand, Bai Mu quickly climbed down from the roof.

Some of the bandits noticed that Bai Mu had dropped his long-range weapons and even ran down from the high ground, so they immediately turned back and killed him.

The boss's death made them happy... and sad, but if they killed Bai Mu, he would be the new boss!

Especially when seeing the funny-looking "knife" in Bai Mu's hand, the robbers who came on horseback felt more at ease.

Can any strong man knock over a horse?

What can that fruit peeling knife do?

bang bang bang-

After the robbers who came back on horseback approached a certain distance, Bai Mu quickly put away the dagger, took out another pistol with his free hand, and emptied the magazines of both pistols in Bai Mu's hand as quickly as possible.

There were screams and horse neighs. Most of the robbers who came on horseback died on the spot. The remaining robbers were completely frightened and fled the town without looking back. There were things here that were more terrifying than demons.

"What are you looking at? It's time to clean the floor." Bai Mu put away his two pistols and shouted to the residents hiding in their homes. Those residents who were secretly watching immediately closed the doors and windows in an attempt to feel more secure.

In their eyes, Baimu looked even less human than a demon. They didn't even see how Baimu attacked before they heard a loud noise, and the bandits who had invaded the town were inexplicably killed. On the mountain road, the bandits who were fleeing in panic encountered Denise who had returned. The bandits' embarrassed escape made Denise's expression even more solemn.

The reason she turned back was that she realized the mistake she had made. The robbers she had encountered not long ago had already set their sights on the town here. They did not plunder it because there were demons in the town.

The demons have become a special barrier for the town. After the demons are cleared out, the bandits who are targeting there can act without restraint.

She left Claire in the town, and ended up pushing her back into the fire.

So she hurried back, but the robbers' embarrassed escape made her even more uneasy.

She was sure that she had cleared out all the demons in the town, so what else could make these bandits so scared?
"Get out of here, you bitch!" the fleeing robber yelled at Denise who was blocking their way.

Swah——

She cut down the trees on both sides of the road, blocking the road. Denise looked at the bandits who were forced to stop with a horrified look: "What happened in the town?"

"There is something scarier than demons out there. Go and kill him!" The frightened bandits quickly replied. They were now hoping that the Silver-Eyed Witch would go and fight that 'monster'.

Denise quickened her pace as she rushed towards the town, even releasing some demonic energy along the way.

As she approached the town, she smelled a scent of blood, but the smell was not as strong as she had imagined, and not many people had died.

In the town, the doors and windows of nearby residents were tightly closed. On the streets, the bodies of robbers were scattered all over the place. Horses that had lost their owners were wandering around, their hooves constantly stamping in anxiety.

There was no trace of demonic energy at the scene. She was confident that no demon could escape her perception. The person who took action was definitely not a demon, but perhaps something else?
She thought of the two "demons" she had killed not long ago. Those demons had no evil aura, but she still found something unusual about them. She had no intention of taking action at that time, but the other party took action first.

When facing humans, the greatsword is forbidden to kill, but after the two "demons" without demonic energy showed their inhuman side, Denise took decisive action.

After they die, they are no different from demons, but they have no demonic aura, and are more difficult to detect than demons when they are disguised.

Did the bandits who invaded the town encounter such a monster?

Denise checked the bodies of the bandits. Except for the bandit leader who died from an arrow in the head and the bandit who had one hand chopped off, the rest of the bandits died from penetrating wounds.

Some demons can change their bodies and extend their claws to perform piercing attacks, and these bandits died in a similar way.

Without wasting too much time here, Denise reached out and pushed open a resident's door: "Tell me where the family who adopted Claire lives!"

"Do you know Denise? Do you know where Denise is? Will she come back? Can you take me to find her?"

"Stop." Bai Mu stuffed the fruit in his hand into the girl's mouth. He had been severely harassed for quite some time.

After he dealt with the robbers, the fruit stall owner was not so afraid to deliver fruits, and the restaurant owner was not so sad and angry.

The mayor who had been hiding from him was even brave enough to stop hiding. He even offered free hotel accommodation and new clothes to Baimu and Ruifu, which the dead bandits had already paid for.

For the people here, as long as he is not a demon, nothing else matters, even if his origins are unknown.

"I know Denise, but I don't know her. We don't need to look for her. She will most likely come to us on her own."

Taking the fruit from her mouth, Claire continued to ask, "Will she really come back?"

"Instead of asking this, why don't you go wash my clothes?" Bai Mu pointed to the clothes he had taken off.

He fought with demons, monsters, and robbers today, and his clothes were already dirty.

Claire opened her mouth slightly, wanting to continue being a curious baby.

Bai Mu said, "If you ask me again, I'll take you far away and make her unable to find you even if she wants to!"

"I, I'm going to do the laundry."

She glanced at Bai Mu, who was shirtless. The bandages on his body were soaked with blood. It didn't look like the wounds he had sustained from fighting robbers...

Claire went to wash clothes. River lowered her head, occasionally glancing at the white screen, feeling at a loss.

"What are you looking at me for? Go get me a basin of clean water."

"Will you really take her away?"

"Scare her." Bai Mu gently pressed the bandage on his body, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching. The bandage and the wound were stuck together, and it would be uncomfortable later.

"Then what about leaving me behind?"

Bai Mu laughed: "You wish!"

　No more, no more...
