Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

Chapter 278 Don’t Forget the Balance

Several people were in a stalemate.

Qin Yuchen sat on the coffin, clearly not wanting these people to take action.

These people held the tools for opening the coffin in their hands and acted as if they were about to open it.

Qin Yuchen looked at them quietly, maintaining a good mood and thinking for a moment, then suddenly chuckled. He decided to respect the fate of this group of people.

So he jumped off the coffin to make room for them, as if it were up to him.

He looked at the joy that had returned to the faces of this group of people, retreated to the stone gate where he had come from, and turned around to leave the place of trouble.

Not long after walking out, the dull thud of a coffin and the sound of chains rubbing against the ground were heard behind him.

He quickened his pace slightly and hid in a secret corner.

A group of people looked at the coffin that was opening wider and wider with eager eyes. The cheers and gasps indicated the value of the treasure in the coffin, but they were so happy that they didn't notice that the cage behind them was also slowly opening.

A deafening roar was heard again, and the person who wanted to reach out to grab the treasure was suddenly pierced from behind by a big hand, and was lifted into the air and kept twitching.

"Ahhh-"

The man died so suddenly that he didn't even scream.

The remaining few people reacted quickly and rushed towards the only exit.

"Damn it! Where is the guy named Qin?" The second-in-command of the team did not forget to look for Qin Yuchen while running away.

As a result, he looked around and didn't see Qin Yuchen at all.

"He ran away a long time ago! You're still looking for your sister?

Damn it, wasn't he invited here just to solve this problem? And he just left first? "

"Son of a bitch, that's what I said..."

"puff--"

The second-in-command and a guy with a crew cut acted like a double act, cursing Qin Yuchen viciously for being untrustworthy.

The second-in-command had just sworn something when he was interrupted by a sound of spitting blood. He swayed back and forth uncontrollably, covering his chest with one hand and trying to grab the person next to him with the other.

Everyone saw him stagger forward a few steps, and finally fall to the ground and lose his life.

The incident happened suddenly and the survivors had no idea what was happening. All their lights were focused on the person who fell to the ground.

Only then did the boss and others realize that the reason for the second-in-command's death was the gray knife behind him.

Half of the gray knife accurately penetrated the second-in-command's chest. The disgusting black blood on it flowed down along the blade and finally mixed with the second-in-command's blood.

The group of people hurriedly turned around to guard against the direction where the gray knife came from, while being alert to the dark passage and slowly retreating.

They knew that there was a bloody corpse following them.

But now the heavy footsteps and the "clucking" sounds disappeared, replaced by a stronger smell of blood and decay, and the incessant roar of the bloody corpse.

"Boss, this... this looks like Mr. Qin's knife."

The person standing next to the boss reminded.

"Do you think I can't recognize you?"

The boss spat, telling the man to shut up.

How could he not recognize whose knife it was?

These two knives are as recognizable as the name Qin Yuchen.

No matter where he is, as long as one of the two knives appears in sight, it proves that Qin Yuchen is nearby.

This is the default thing in their line of work.

Because no one can get Qin Yuchen's knife and use it for themselves, and no one can imitate it exactly.

In fact, when Qin Yuchen first became famous in the underworld, some people tried to imitate him, but they were still ordinary swords, barely usable.

If it is used as a common weapon for those roaming underground like Qin Yuchen, it is obviously not qualified.

"Damn it, I told you not to control your mouths." The boss knew the reason why Qin Yuchen suddenly attacked. He suppressed the panic in his heart, turned around and kicked the man with a crew cut hiding behind him.

"Boss, boss, you must save me!" The man with the short hair was trembling with regret, and his small eyes looked around, fearing that Qin Yuchen would suddenly jump out from somewhere and hit him.

"I'm not... I'm just standing up for you. After all, we've invited him so many times!"

He was the one who cursed together with the second-in-command, and he was a little luckier than the second-in-command.

Because there was someone behind him to protect him, Qin Yuchen did not attack him for the time being.

Now that the other person who spread rumors is dead, it goes without saying that he will be the next one.

He was so scared that he was shaking all over, and he wished he could find a place to hide away immediately so that Qin Yuchen couldn't find him.

"Tsk, are you scared now?"

The boss kicked the man with the crew cut again, telling him to shut up and not disturb him from listening to the footsteps in the dark.

Within a few seconds, the owner of the footsteps appeared in everyone's sight.

The boss and others first looked at the black knife that was still dripping with blood, and then at Qin Yuchen's expressionless face.

The huge monster behind Qin Yuchen collapsed.

The boss noticed the blood splattered on the ground and watched a dirty and smelly head roll out from Qin Yuchen's feet.

That's the head of the bloody corpse in the cage.

At this time, there was only a corpse left, and blood was flowing non-stop.

"Mr. Qin, is everything resolved?" The boss reacted immediately, asked everyone to stop, and returned to a respectful appearance, trying to inquire about the situation.

Qin Yuchen glanced at the boss and said nothing.

He walked up to the body of the person who had been stabbed, pulled out his gray knife and shook off the excess blood on it, and finally fixed his eyes on the man with the crew cut.

"Qin... Master Qin, I was wrong..."

The "clucking" sound of being solved was heard again, as well as the shuffling footsteps.

Qin Yuchen frowned slightly, stepped forward quickly and killed the man with a buzz cut with one knife, without caring whether the people behind him followed or not, and blended back into the darkness.

This series of actions took only a moment. When Qin Yuchen left, the man with the buzz cut had not yet completely died, but no one cared about him. They all tacitly shut up and tried their best to keep up with Qin Yuchen's pace.

The road they took out was very rugged. In order to avoid the blood corpses chasing them, they walked wherever the road was narrower.

Qin Yuchen's speed was more than doubled, and when he went out of the cave again, none of the tomb robbers behind him could catch up.

He found a place not too far from the cave entrance and sat down to clean his two knives while waiting for those people. The first one to come out was the boss, followed by two people.

As soon as the boss came out, he asked the two men to blow up the entrance of the cave and took the initiative to explain the situation inside to Qin Yuchen.

In addition to Qin Yuchen, there were seven people who went down this time, but in the end only three people came up.

They don't have the ability like Qin Yuchen, so it's impossible for them to escape unscathed from the blood corpse.

If he hadn't pushed someone out to act as a shield in the end, he might have been implicated in everything.

The boss looked at the gradually collapsing cave entrance with lingering fear, and carefully watched Qin Yuchen's every move.

Qin Yuchen sheathed the knife. Seeing that the thing was unlikely to come up, he ignored what the boss had told him and turned to walk down the mountain while saying:

"Don't forget the balance."
