That was the only way.
Although I was confident in my marksmanship, right now I could only choose one of the two. No matter how fast I was, my shooting speed wouldn't exceed their reaction speed by much. I could only pick one target: their hands or their feet.
I lowered my head and thought for a moment...
"Shh... Hah..."
I adjusted my breathing slightly, getting myself into the most relaxed state possible. Tension, excitement, and all kinds of emotions gradually faded as my mind began calculating the upcoming fight. I listened to the footsteps in the distance, estimating how long it would take them to react, aim, and fire.
"Shh... Hah..."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
I saw the look of surprise on Six Thieves' leering face and the fury on Si Zhuang's as he turned. Without hesitation, I pulled the triggers. Four shots in a row, and four bullets pierced their thighs in an instant!
"Gahhh!"
"F*** you!!!"
Six Thieves and Si Zhuang screamed. They hadn't even had time to pull up their pants before they toppled into the pit
