Chapter 9 Chapter Nine Gained and Lost

It is 120 miles from Yangzhou to Gaoyou.Ships on the voyage usually take two days. If they are not in a hurry, ships seldom sail at night. After all, people are not made of iron. It is very hard to sail against the water and the wind. Every boatman needs to go all out, but he must rest at night. Furthermore, in the past twenty years, the law and order on the river has been deteriorating. Not only the little underworld thieves who eat water are running rampant, but also groups of water thieves who are connected to the five great lakes, they also rob and kill people with open fire. Night voyages cannot guarantee safety even if they form a group for self-defense. The bodyguards on board usually refuse the request for night voyages, and they gamble their lives during the day, and the odds of winning are higher.

Since the Sancha River is 15 miles south of Fucheng, it will take at least an hour for Beihang to reach Yangzhou Fucheng, so it must stop at Shaobo Town, and Shaobo Town has become the station where Caohe must moor its boats. As a result, Shaobo Town has become the northernmost big town in Fucheng, with inspection department, water station, and water transport department. The wharf dedicated to water transport can accommodate 200 water ships. The scale is large, and the public security is relatively good, which is better than Gaoyou much. In the past, the Caohe waterway passed through the vast Shaobo Lake. The wind was high and the waves were dangerous, and the sailing ships suffered a lot. Ten years ago, in the 18th year of Wanli, an inland river of a hundred miles long was dug to connect the Shaoboyue (Yue) River in the east of the lake. Since then, boats have no longer sailed on Shaobo Lake. , There will no longer be tragedies of capsized boats.

Moreover, the water thieves in Shaobo Lake also lost the opportunity to rob a boat in the lake and escape. The speedboats of the Yangzhou River Defense Battalion can rush to Shaobo Township to search and arrest them in an hour. Therefore, the 40-mile river from Yangzhou to Shaobo Township is the safest area with the best law and order. After passing Shaobo Town and passing the river along the Lupan Temple of the Fairy Temple, it is a dangerous waterway where small thieves are rampant and water thieves are infested in groups. The inspection department of Shaobo Town only has more than 30 auxiliary fastmen and more than 20 Zhoukuai. Ding Yong, who led more than a hundred soldiers, acted like a group of defeated soldiers. He was brave enough to catch a few underworld gangsters. A famous hero or water thief who runs slower than a snail.

If water thieves want to rob, they will definitely do it north of Shaobo Town. The three tribute boats sailed northward slowly, and took Shaobo Town as their lodging station. They sailed northward early the next morning and arrived safely in Gaoyou for rest. Most of the boats in the river are sailing in groups, and the upper and lower sides are on the left side. Occasionally, privileged boats can be seen in the middle, and priority is given to fast passage. There are boats sailing in front of and behind the tribute boat, more than a hundred steps apart, and they dare not approach.If the ships in front are followed by the official ships, they will obediently lean towards the river bank and let the official ships pass. How can ordinary civilian ships dare to block the official ship's channel?Getting close will also bring bad luck, even disaster.

The three official ships were not in a hurry to hurry, and the ships behind were angry but did not dare to speak out, and did not dare to overtake to avoid trouble.The various flags waving in the wind on the official ships will scare the common people when they see them, although they can't figure out what officials these flags represent.The big man in Tsing Yi with a sword hanging on the deck is also scary. Shortly after noon, the official ship arrived at Wantou. Wantou joins the east and west rivers, the Yunyan River in the east, and the Renzi River (Shaoboxin River) in the west. There are fewer boats, and twenty-five miles to the north is the Xunsi of Shaobo Town.

Two small cargo ships sailed into the east and west rivers respectively, entered the Caohe River, and inserted into the boats in front of the tribute boats. The people on the tribute boat didn't pay attention to the changes of the boats ahead, and there was no need for it. This section of the river was very safe. At dusk, the ship approached the Shaobo Water Station Wharf. Only official ships and official ships were allowed to berth at the Water Station Wharf. Half of the ten post boats usually sailed up and down the river as scheduled, and other ships were prohibited from entering the dock area.

A hundred steps upstream is the commercial wharf of Shaobo Town.Two small cargo ships were moored at the southernmost end of the pier, and the movement of the three tribute ships could be clearly seen.The twilight is everywhere, and the busy situation of the tribute boat can be seen at a glance. The people on the cargo ship landed one after another after dark, bought some food and wandered around the half-side street of the pier, and some of them boarded the other two small passenger ships without anyone noticing.Soon, two dark red lanterns hung from the small passenger boat. The night market on Banbian Street was as lively as usual.

The streets and alleys in the town are narrow and brightly lit.The market is prosperous, and it is a wealthy small port, only one level worse than Gaoyou.This place belongs to Ganquan County in Yangzhou Prefecture. The security personnel from Gaoyou went home after Lupan Temple, not wanting to meddle in other people's business. The north of Shaoboshuiyi is the end of the small street by the river, and this is the essence of the whole street, forming a consumer market in several small streets, restaurants, hotels, and small shops for tourists to rest and spend. Yangzhou wine shop is quite famous in this town. It serves Xuzhou sorghum, which people in the south of the Yangtze River seldom drink.

The scale of the restaurant is not small, there is a facade, and it is convenient to have a big banquet or a small drink.The hall on the left is equipped with a screen, which can be divided into small rooms, which can be used for banquets for wealthy and wealthy guests, and it is also convenient for female relatives to visit, but the privacy is not good.When the lights are on, there are a lot of customers. Four broad-shouldered, ferocious-looking middle-aged tycoons with swords on their hands gathered a feast of wine and drank to their heart's content, and their voices came out of the screen from time to time.

The hall was brightly lit, the smell of wine and meat was overflowing, and the voices of people were noisy. Many people even punched their fists, and some people sang vulgar ditties in strange tunes. In this kind of wharf wine shop, there are almost all rude drinkers, not a place for noble people to drink and recite poems.Even when guests are full of guests, they have to speak louder to hear clearly. The four of them were talking happily when two light coughs came from the mouth, and two burly middle-aged men came in. The four of them suddenly changed their colors, breaking into a banquet is a very taboo thing, it usually means a challenge, and the visitor is not kind.

Hahaha!The big bearded man who broke in first laughed: Hearing his familiar accent, he really is brother Cheng Zhonglang, a lone wolf. It turned out to be you, Brother Eagle Claw King Wang Haowang.The faces of the four of them relaxed, and the middle-aged man with a stern face said happily: Please sit down, both of you.Brother Wang, long time no see.this friend is Flying Fox Yang Yi.King Eagle Claw's companion dragged the bench and sat down: He and Brother Wang had an errand in the Salt Administration of Yangzhou Imperial Envoy.It turns out that the boat at the station belongs to you. I have been admiring for a long time.The Lone Wolf was polite, first introduced three companions, Zhang San Li Si Wang Er Mazi, and finally said: The tribute ship goes to Beijing every three months, and your Yangzhou imperial envoy also once every three months! Brother Lang, why did Imperial Commissioner Chen send you to escort the boat to Beijing.Eagle Claw King was quite surprised: I heard that your brother is in the Chen imperial envoy's mansion in Jingzhou.Escorting the tribute to Beijing is not your business! What eighteen guards?It should be called eighteen demons.Originally, it was none of my business to escort the tribute to Beijing.But two months before the departure, some bastards were found fleeing, and the crowd was planning to rob the tribute ship, so we came here with four demons, planning to wipe out this group of bastards and eliminate future troubles forever. Know the details? Yes, we have sent eyeliners to keep an eye on them, but unfortunately they are very sophisticated, they are fragmented and erratic, and the planners are experts among experts, so they cannot grasp the details and action steps of their plans.Finally good, finally received the correct message two days ago. oh?Where did it come from?When to do it?Eagle Claw King asked. You have heard of the Huntian Sect and Yuehuamen, right? I thought they were some terrible characters, but they turned out to be two low-profile combinations. You guys are making a big deal out of it, right?Feihu's language is ironic: The Huntian Sect can only play tricks and cheat and steal from some nouveau riche.The Yuehua Gate is dedicated to fighting dragons and snakes in some places.You mean, dozens of them dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head? That's right!To be honest, we dare not take them lightly.Lone Wolf was displeased, and his tone turned cold: more than 200,000 tax dollars, I have to make a fuss over a molehill! Will you play wild on this section of the river?Eagle Claw King hurriedly smoothed things over, seeing that the lone wolf was unhappy: Do you want us to help? It's not on this section of the river, but it's coming soon. We have sent people to Bufu to cut the weeds and root out the troubles forever.There are not many of them, and we have more than enough to deal with.Brother Wang's kindness in helping each other, the brother's heart is appreciated.The Lone Wolf and the King of Eagle Claws have a good relationship, and they speak politely, but also intend to show their strength: what's the point of a clown jumping on a bridge? It's always good to be careful.King Talon is deeply concerned. You already know where they're going to strike, and there are people around them, so what's there to worry about?We are going to pass through their ambush area during the day, and we can catch them all in one go.Oh, how long have you been in Yangzhou and the imperial envoy?everything is going well?The lone wolf didn't want to talk about the hijacking of the ship, so he started another topic: my side is not bad, but there are frequent civil uprisings, which is very annoying. Chen Qinchai is known as the King of Hades, also known as the demon, and his methods are extremely cruel. No wonder there are frequent civil uprisings!I spent two years in the imperial envoy's mansion, and I did earn 10,000 to 20,000 silver, which was not enough compared to the top, but more than the bottom.Come, let's toast the four of you. The clerk has already brought tableware, wine and food, and talked about the proud things in the past, with the theme of wine, sex and fortune, avoiding the incident involving ship robbery, so as to avoid any unpleasantness from happening again. When it gets dark, work is over, and the dock area is no longer busy.But there are still some places where the lights are still bright, and there are ships eager to unload their cargo.Then there are ships berthing one after another from time to time, and passengers have landed one after another.People who have worked hard all day, as well as tourists arriving at the port, all go to the city for activities. At watch time, the lights in the dock area faded. Someone quietly got out of the two small cargo ships, one by one like ghosts.Two dark red round lanterns swaying in the night wind. Although the luminosity is limited, this kind of light can reach far, which is quite special. A hundred steps downstream of the special wharf of Shuiyi, there are two small passenger boats moored on the embankment on the other side of the river. There are no lights, and it is dark and difficult to attract attention. There are only small boats moored on the embankment, usually private boats from nearby villages. The Caohe embankment is a huge project, starting from Yangzhou in the south and reaching Baoying in the north, with a length of more than two hundred miles.Here, it is called Shaobo Lake Embankment; in Gaoyou, it is called Gaoyou Embankment or West Embankment. Gaoyou Shaobo Baima floods the lakes, accommodates more than 70 rivers, and the terrain is high in the west and low in the east. This giant embankment stopped a lot of floods. The embankment faces the lake in the west, and the stormy waves beat the shore and are magnificent.The terrain on the east side of the dike is eastward, so there is a section of river bank between the excavated Yuehe River (Moon River), and the boats are moored on the river bank, not under the dike.The small boats at anchor do not interfere with the traffic on the river, so no one pays attention to the activities of these small boats. There were also people moving quietly in the two small passenger boats. Their bodies were dark like apes, and it was not easy to tell whether they were wearing clothes or pants, like the rumored water monsters. There are no more boats on the river, and occasionally there are three or two boats sailing up or down quietly. These are boats sailing at night. Upstream, a medium-sized passenger ship was slowly sailing past the water transport pier, approaching the commercial pier area, and its mast lights were also dark red. One hundred steps downstream of the commercial wharf area is the special wharf for Shuiyi. The safest place is also the most dangerous place. Shaoboshui Post is located beside the Cao River in the south of the town, and has a dedicated post boat pier. There are more than ten houses in the post post, which can receive one or two hundred officials and servants who are transiting the border on business.On the opposite side of the street is the inspection office.Passing north to east, it is a market formed by small streets and alleys, connecting the half street of the pier in the commercial district.If there is any accident at the post station, the police will arrive in no time, and the people in the neighborhood will also come to watch the excitement. The Ding Fu Postman of the post station itself also has the ability to punish criminals.Therefore, the vicinity of the post station can be said to be the safest place. Yi Cheng is the spy eyeliner of the imperial court, and also serves as the head of local arbitration in Shaobo Town.The head of the inspection department, Mr. Inspector, also gave him three points of courtesy when he saw him, although they are both minimum officials and have different responsibilities.There is a security problem at the post station, especially endangering the passing officials received. If the patrol office is not well protected, the consequences will be extremely serious. There are not only the guards of the station itself, but also the guards on the post station wharf. The gangsters will never dare to walk around and run wild in the vicinity. However, it is possible to guard against the night, but it does not have the preparation and ability to prevent large groups of criminals from looting openly. Such a major criminal case has never occurred in the past.The water thieves in Shaobo Lake do not have the ability to commit crimes near the town. Three tribute boats from the Huguang Imperial Commissioner's Mansion came tonight, and the guards doubled.The security of the ship itself has also been doubled.Half of the senior officials on board lived in the official guest house.Psychologically, adding guards is just a matter of duty, and it is just to act according to the regulations. It is impossible for safety accidents to happen here. You have received the correct information, so there is no need to worry. The medium-sized passenger ship finally passed the commercial dock and approached the water station. The two small cargo ships drifted towards the water station first, and the speed of their descent was not slow. At the end of the first shift, the streets of the town are very lively, and the night market is open. There are three tribute ships, and only a few people in charge know which one actually carries the gold and silver treasures. In the other two auxiliary ships, the number and type of boxes and wooden cabinets loaded are exactly the same as those of the main ship, and even the weight of each box is almost the same. The appearance of each tribute ship is of course also the same, even the colors of various flags Quantity is also equal. Over the past ten years, the number of eunuchs who supervised mines increased from more than 10 to more than 200 imperial envoys who supervised taxation. A large number of eunuchs who have collected the wealth of the world are all over the world, and convoys and fleets of ships transporting tribute and property are flocking in an endless stream, both by land and water. Incidents of desperation and robbery of royal tributes also emerged in endlessly.However, there are not many cases of successful robbery. The minions of the imperial envoy responsible for the transportation are not only talented and powerful, but also sent Ding Yong Minzhuang to escort the government along the way. Cities with guards were even required to send official guards to escort them.Hundreds of mobs fled to their deaths. It was very difficult to successfully rob. Those who were caught were all executed on the spot. It was lucky to be killed on the spot.The escort's only thought in dealing with robbery or theft is to kill them as soon as possible without mercy. The width of the river is less than a hundred paces, the current is turbulent, and the speed of descending is very fast, and the scene on the boat cannot be seen clearly in the dark. The dock guards and the guards on the tribute boat were unsuspecting and lazy. They had just seen the shadow of the boat approaching, and before they had time to react, a small cargo ship that floated crashed into the pier with a big shock, and a group of people wearing only dew jumped out. The black hood with facial features, the whole body is black and strong, only the left arm is wrapped with a strange figure of white scarf, half of it swings a sword and rushes to the pier, half of it leaps onto the tribute boat, and rushes at the guards on the boat. The hidden weapons are like locusts, and people swarm with hidden weapons superior. The medium-sized passenger ship also rushed to the pier, jumping out more weird people dressed in the same way. The killing sound exploded, and the screams shocked the whole town. Among the people coming out of the medium-sized passenger boat, there was Li Xiong, who jumped onto the tribute boat in the middle first, with a single knife in his hand. Yin God Fu Linggu and a member of Yuehuamen, together with Chilian Snake and Huahua Taisui, like his patron saints, protected him from left to right and boarded the ship at the same time. As soon as his feet touched the deck, he fell down and rolled sideways. He avoided the guard's sword with no time to spare, and immediately jumped up, kicked through the locked front hatch, and rushed in. Oh, the guard was cut in by Yinshen, and a sword pierced into his right flank. Huahua Taisui followed and quickly lit the torch made of waste bamboo with a torch. When the deck of the middle cabin was lifted, many wooden boxes were stacked neatly, and the first wooden box was broken by a single knife. The silver light is dazzling, it is indeed fifty taels of weight-shaped silver ingots, for long-distance transportation, there is no need for ingots or horseshoe-shaped silver ingots. It's this one!Huahua Taisui cheers. Fake!He chopped another wooden box: If you don’t believe me, scratch it and see, it’s not bad to add one more, silver is said to lubricate the tongue. The second wooden box was broken, and it was also a silver ingot. He chopped open a box with a single knife, and inside was gray-black lead. I'll go find another one, you search another cabin.He didn't waste any more time and rushed out of the hatch. There was a lot of killing, and the companions had already divided and cooperated to cut the cable, untie the sail, set the oar, and set the oar, and the work efficiency was excellent. On the pier, the sudden fight was in full swing, the people rushing from the post station shouted like thunder, and the people rushing from the market screamed and shook the sky. This is not a tribute ship.He shouted to those who cut the cable: Give up!quick! Huahua Taisui and a few companions didn't follow, and they probably didn't give up and were still hacking through other wooden boxes to check. Yinshen and the other two followed him and jumped onto the lowest tribute boat. It's this one!A person drilled out of the cabin shouted and let out a loud roar. Hierarch, you go first.He recognized the voice of Master Hang: It is not easy for people on the shore to retreat, so I will urge the people in the second group to respond. The boat was leaving the pier, and he took two quick steps and was about to fly ashore. You are in charge of responding, so you cannot go up.He suddenly saw the flashing lightning-chasing sword, and hurriedly drank heavily. All the people are dressed in the same way, one type of hood that reveals facial features, one type of dark gray clothes, white scarves on the left arm, only the size of the body is high or low, how can they recognize their identities in the dark?The lightning-chasing sword exposed the identity of Absolute Sword Xu Feiyang. Absolute Sword belonged to another group, responsible for supporting the companions who were fighting at the pier, and also responsible for covering the retreat. The retreating ship was one of the two small cargo ships. There were five people following Juejian, and the others were still fighting. Is it this one?Juejian asked anxiously on the pier. Yes, his voice suddenly changed drastically, his figure flew up obliquely, and with a sound of water, he flew into the icy river water. At this moment, he heard Juejian's angry cry, which was similar to his scream, and even more shocking, as if he wanted to fight someone desperately. The icy river water made him startled suddenly, and he endured the pain and dived backwards. He felt that the god of luck had taken care of him in the dark. Because Jue Jian made a leap towards the boat, he also wanted to jump towards the pier. He didn't want to collide with the opponent in mid-air, so he turned around and moved slightly sideways.At this moment, the heavy pressure and body behind him knocked him into the air. If he hadn't just twisted his body, the pressure was drawn obliquely, and the hit part would have shifted accordingly, hitting the left luteal bone instead of the vest, otherwise his meridians would have been broken, and his heart would have been affected and destroyed. It is the terrifying internal palm force, powerful enough to break veins and shatter bones. He didn't know how many people were behind him. All he knew were the leader of Hang, Chilian Snake, and Yinshen. Yinshen should be behind to protect him. He already completely trusted Yinshen, this beautiful Yuehuamen sub-door master, his love for him was unquestionable, so he completely trusted this lovely woman. Who made that palm? I'm so stupid!He cursed himself: He succeeded in robbing the tribute, and it's time to silence him, I A wave of dizziness hit me, and the suffocation was even more irresistible. I gritted my teeth and floated upwards, and found that I was already more than a hundred steps downstream.The boats at the post station wharf are leaving, and the shouts are still loud. In a daze, he grabbed a long oar and instinctively hugged him tightly, his sanity gradually blurred. He has no idea what happened after that. The speed of the retreat was very fast. Before the minions of the imperial envoy rushed in, the person in charge of the rear killed and dispersed the twenty or so minions who arrived first, and boarded two small cargo ships one after another amidst the roaring sound, and quickly sailed away. At this time, the captured tribute boat was already a hundred paces away. The remaining two auxiliary tribute ships, as well as the nearby ships, have been destroyed by another group of people responsible for destroying all the oar seats, and the fastened sails have also cut the sails, and they have become unmovable waste. Opportunity to catch up by boat. The losses were limited, and the assault was an unprecedented success. The snatched tribute boat was the first to leave the pier. While drifting, it hurriedly set up the oars and installed the oars. When it is installed properly, it can only drift along the current in a short period of time. Standing outside the cabin door, Master Hang commanded, quite proud, and the actions were coordinated seamlessly. I really didn't expect it to be so smooth. There were only a few minions left on the tribute boat, and most of the people who really came to fight against the hijackers were post station guards, whose resistance was unexpectedly weak. He knew it well, most of the master minions were already waiting near the beak of the old stork in Gaoyou, Li Xiong's strategy was unprecedentedly successful. The two people on the starboard side who were hurriedly hanging the oars had just put the rope on the oar post, when a strange hand stretched out from the side, threw a strange bag the size of a foot, and threw it on the deck with a bang, and then There was a flash of fire, a bang, sparks and acrid smoke splashed and gushed. Hey, someone screamed, Martian bunker. The smoke was poisonous and at the same time someone screamed and jumped into the water. Explosives were dropped in front of and behind the ship, and the whole ship was in chaos. Hang Jiaozhu stood outside the cabin door, a strange bag almost fell under his feet, he couldn't help but think about it, the instinct of survival drove him to leap up, dodge to the side, there was a big earthquake, and the explosive sparks touched his body trousers. There was a sound of water, and in the splash of water, he quickly sank underwater. Some people jumped into the water with their bodies on fire, and some fell into the sparks on the deck after being smoked. The sparks are very weird, they extinguish themselves when they come into contact with objects, no wonder there is no red flame, it turned out to be caused by refined phosphor powder, the burning time is short, and the heat damage is not enough. The terrible thing is the poisonous smoke, if you smell it, you will be dizzy and dizzy, and you will be in a coma for a while, and those who want to resist will lose consciousness if they slow down. In a moment, among the more than 20 men and women who boarded the boat with Master Hang, only four unconscious people remained on the boat, and the others jumped into the water to escape for their lives. The snatched boat changed hands, and more than 20 ape-like people in tight-fitting water tanks boarded the tribute boat. The ship did not catch fire, and the composition of the gunpowder pack was almost miraculous. Two small passenger boats, one behind the other, cover the tribute boat to sail down. There were sixty or seventy retreating people on the two cargo ships, their speed was slower than that of the tribute ship, and they were a hundred paces away. They witnessed an accident on the tribute ship. I don't know what happened, but I knew there were explosions and flames. The boat is most afraid of fire and explosives, and it is impossible to catch up with the rescue. Everyone shouted desperately, urging the oarsmen to work harder. Amid the yelling, the first oar was pulled down in the water, and even the oar post was pulled off. Then the second oar post, the third oar post, and the people beside the oar post also suffered together. The person sticking to the side of the ship and pulling the boat upwards with one hand and pulling the oar with the other hand not only has extraordinary water skills, but also has amazing strength, and disappears without a trace when he succeeds. Someone is playing tricks underwater!Someone screamed wildly, drew a knife and stood guard by the side. Go into the water and catch them.Huahua Taisui roared like crazy: I want to peel their skins! The night is as black as ink, the water is even darker, and the current is fast. Can you catch people if you go down?No one dared to take the risk to catch it. Moreover, running for one's life is the most important thing, there will be minions chasing after him soon, any delay can cause fatal danger.Staying away from the scene is the golden rule for escapees. Unpredictable, unprepared. Wantou is the first assembly point. Whether the attack is successful or not, everyone must come to the meeting afterwards. If those who arrive first find warning signs, they can leave a note and go to the second assembly point to wait for the rendezvous. Wantou is twenty-five miles away from Shaobo Town, and those who can't catch up with the ship and are responsible for escaping after breaking, can go south from the official road, and there is no difficulty in arriving in half an hour. After the reservation was successful, the tribute boat sailed into the Yunyan River and went to Taizhou. After dividing the spoils halfway, they broke up the whole thing and flew away. The running dogs couldn't do anything to them! Leaving the scene was scattered, the boat had been lost, people swam ashore, were covered in water, had no clothes to change, and everyone was in a panic, like a group of monsters, divided into several groups and ran south overnight. The group of Juejian who was in charge of covering after the break lost three people, and it was too late to take away the corpse.Anyway, except for the tights, all the people did not carry any items on their bodies, and they would not reveal their identities after being arrested. Of course, it is impossible to find out the root of the deceased from the items they carried after death. The situation is urgent, and it is impossible to take away the corpse. The Juejian group originally had sixteen masters who dared to kill and fight, and Juejian is the master of the masters, the best candidate for cover. He didn't mind losing someone. Ten miles away, it was expected that the pursuers would not be able to come, this irritable swordsman stopped suddenly and pulled off his hood, dodged to the side of the road, let out an angry cry, and unsheathed the chasing sword. Huh!The eldest girl, Lin Xiaoxia, exclaimed in surprise, and vigilantly moved away from her horse and slowly drew her sword: What's the matter with you? When I was unprepared, my dear friend who hit me with a mountain shaking fist, stand up for me.He gritted his teeth and raised his sword, ready to strike: If that guy Li Xiong hadn't yelled and prevented the boarding on the shore, and I just moved to let him land, this punch would have hit the lower right rib.At last Zai was lucky, Yu Jin hit the back and knocked Zai out of the slant without hurting his waist and ribs.I want justice, I want it's me.Lin Xiaoxia's father faced each other with his hands on his hips: I was looking for you. I am here.He raised his voice: Damn, you are the commander of this group, and you actually killed me after you succeeded. So, I'll keep you from boarding the ship with my rocking fist.Lin Wuwei, the mighty dragon in troubled times, has a louder voice and a stern voice: We are responsible for breaking the back and covering the retreat of the tribute boat captured by the leader, but you are greedy for life and fear of death and rush to board and retreat first. I want to know what your intentions are. If I want your life , will definitely give you a flying knife. Chaotic Weilong is the chief protector of the teaching circle, his status is second only to the leader and deputy leader, and he is also the brother-in-law of the leader. Regardless of public or private, no one dares to behave wildly in front of him.But Jue Jian is not a disciple of the sect, and never pays attention to the rules of the Huntian sect. Nonsense!Jue Jian almost roared: I just want to verify whether the wrong ship was robbed, and two of the three tribute ships are secondary ships that can be abandoned at any time.I have a share of those gold and silver treasures, and of course I am concerned.It seems that Li Xiong was plotted against and flew overboard and fell into the water. Maybe it was your people who did it too.He and I did our best for you, for this wealth. Obviously, after you succeed, you will kill us to silence us, very viciously.Your Excellency's Hunyuan Qigong is pure and pure, and your flying knife technique is powerful in the world, come on!I'd like to see if you have any other amazing supernatural powers.You missed the Shaking Mountain Fist, you regret it, don't you?Don't regret it, you still have a chance, I'm recruiting. Your responsibility is to cover and prevent the lackeys from rescuing the ship. Why did you abandon your responsibility and intend to board the ship? This old man must punish you.Chaotic Weilong puts his sword on the target: If you are not still needed, the old man will kill you on the spot.You better be sensible and don't make any more moves of resistance.Although the punch of the old man was not solid, I believe it has hurt your right back rib, and your muscles and bones have been damaged. Can you still use your internal strength to control the sword?Don't be stupid, I order you to put away your sword and hurry. The other eleven men and women approached from three sides with furious faces. Xu Feiyang, your share is indispensable.Don't you force us to get rid of you by coming here?Lin Xiaoxia took advantage of the disadvantages: You have the master's time-controlled poison in your body, will my father kill you after he succeeds?Wouldn't it be much easier if I didn't give you an antidote?If you don't rush to Wantou to meet up, the minions are coming soon, we can't leave, and your treasure is not yours. You think you are smart and hateful, but you are actually stupid and stupid.Jue Jian didn't care about the siege of twelve people on three sides at all, and his expression returned to cold and stern: Master Hang's timed poison was passed down from the Southern Heavenly King Jia Zhenggang. When he took it, he only needed five renminbi rhubarb, and it could be discharged within a certain time. There are antidotes for many kinds of strange poisons, what is the poison of Nan Tianwang?If it is not for the sake of gold and silver treasures, I will let you dominate at will?Your father's sneak attack, even if I have never used kung fu to fight with others, it will definitely kill me.A small trauma did not affect the movement of the sword below.Chaotic Veyron, draw your sword and try!If other people dare to intervene, they will be killed.you are not on me As soon as the sword was stretched out, the dragon roared, it seemed that the air flow was surging, and there was a faint sound of wind coming out. It can be seen that the internal force of the sword is so strong that it can induce abnormal changes in the air flow more than ten meters away from the body, resulting in an unbelievable surge The aura has the function of resisting external forces, and its aura is breathtaking. Regardless of whether the Chaotic Veyron draws its sword or not, the sword turns into a laser and shoots out. Chaotic Veyron's sword happened to be out of its sheath, and it instinctively sealed it out. Both sides are faster than lightning, and they are bound to contact in an instant. With a violent shock, Chaoshi Weilong was shaken obliquely, and sparks flew everywhere. With a deep chirp, the light of the sword slanted across, and the lightning-chasing sword pierced into the heart of a rushing disciple in a flash. No matter who intervenes, Juejian effectively executes the warning issued. The disciple who wants to take the opportunity to pounce on him is the fastest to arrive and die the fastest. . Chaotic Veyron finally sealed a sword, but both the person and the sword were sent flying far away. The sword light flowed and turned towards Lin Xiaoxia directly, like a lightning strike. In the dark night, it is impossible to see the moves of the duel. Jue Jian's attack is incredibly fast, attacking three people in an instant, as fast as if it happened at the same instant. Lin Xiaoxia was startled, she sealed three swords in a row with advance as retreat, retreated about ten feet away and then dodged to the left for more than ten feet, very dangerously out of the control range of the lightning chasing sword, as if she still felt the piercing sword gas, and the ear-shattering lingering sound Curly, the pressure is still there. Uh oh, the disciple of Zhongjian screamed and fell down. Feihu Yang Yi, the running dog of Yangzhou and Imperial Envoy's Mansion, said that the Yuehua Sect of the Huntian Sect was just a low-level combination, which was a big lie to brag about Haikou's self-worth, and it was intended to brag about itself in front of the lone wolf. In fact, Master Hang and Master Chen can both rank among the best masters in martial arts and Taoism.Chaotic Weilong's martial arts and flying knife skills are so powerful that he can be ranked as a super master. Compared with Jue Jian's world-class master swordsman, he is not much inferior.However, it was almost embarrassing with a single sword strike. Although the sword was used to seal the frame hastily, it can already be seen that there is a huge gap in cultivation. Lin Xiaoxia accepted the move formally, she could barely withstand the thunderous attack of the Lightning Chaser Sword, and barely received the three swords, the danger was everywhere. If the strange poison control really fails, who can control this swordsman?One can imagine the shock of Weilong and his daughter in Chaotic Times. When the thunder struck, everyone changed their colors in horror. There is no way to save it.The two people who ran out to rescue their companions cried out in desperation.The sword hole in the heart is big and deep, almost piercing through the back, with blood gushing out, one can tell that the atrium must have been pierced. He was killed with a hidden weapon, the Chaotic Veyron roared, and with a flick of his left hand, the throwing knife pierced through the air. The roar obviously asked the companion to launch the hidden weapon at the same time, but he forgot how could the companion be prepared to launch the hidden weapon in a hurry? But Jue Jian's reaction was much faster, and he retreated three feet away in a flash. If you want to be brave and risk your life with hidden weapons in the dark, you must be a donkey who doesn't know how to live or die. If you dare to devour the treasure you deserve, hum!Jue Jian's ferocious words were deafening, and three throwing knives flew away from him, and his strength could no longer pose a threat: the next time someone who wants to attack the subordinate must die, remember?snort! The sound fell and people moved, and flew away to the south. The Salt Transport River can discharge the water from Shaobo Lake into the Cao River. It is also a waterway for the transportation of cooked salt produced by the seaside in Taizhou. The ships that come and go are mainly salt boats, rushing from Wantou Town to the sea. On the third watch, the four groups of people successively arrived at a river bend where they were scheduled to gather. The group that served as cover arrived first, because Jue Jian was running at full speed, and Chaoshi Weilong had to run with all his strength. They knew that this swordsman had made up his mind and a serious accident would happen. The people who were covering were evacuated by land, and had no idea of ​​the accident that happened on the river. The group responsible for driving the tribute boat away had the largest number of people, and was led by the leader himself, accounting for more than one-third of the total number. They were all elites from one religion and one sect. I should have been elated, but I never dreamed that there was an accident. Ping killed a group of monster-like people. The location and method of the attack were unexpected. The tribute boat in hand was handed over to others. double the time. Jue Jian was still in a rage, standing alone on the river bank, staring eagerly at the upstream river in the west, waiting for the robbed tribute boat to arrive, Lin Xiaoxia, who refused to explain, approached, with the Chasing Sword in her hand, ready to use it at any time To solve the problem, the hostility is extremely strong. It is rare for a boat to walk on this river at night, and the sky above the river is dead silent, and the half-dead reeds on both sides of the river are swaying and rustling in the night wind, making strange ghostly shadows. This section of Xiaoguan Road extends eastward along the river, and no one walks at night. Everyone looked eagerly towards the west of the river, and they should be able to see the shadow of the boat. The second group and the third group of more than 20 men and women appeared on the east side of Xiaoguan Road, their heavy footsteps could be heard a hundred paces away. There is a group of people in the east, probably running dogs.The police post in the east suddenly exclaimed: Prepare to withdraw! The other group of people should all come from the river, and they should be driving a cargo ship and a tribute boat. The people who came from the land must be lackeys. If it is found here, it must be evacuated to the second assembly point in the plan. It doesn't look like someone who is chasing you, let's go!Chaotic Veyron ordered decisively, dodging into the side reeds. A figure appeared and saw the white scarf on his arm. Huh!What are you guys?Why come from the road?The guard lurking in the east jumped out and asked loudly. The first Baioutang Dharma master who rushed to the world had a penny of Hang Yiyuan, staggering on his feet and panting like a cow. We made a fortune and shouted to the sky: the boat was attacked by a powerful underwater enemy and could not move.I am afraid that the tribute boat will also be in trouble.Has the priest come? God!What's the matter?Chaotic Veyron was taken aback: You should escort the tribute ship We didn't catch up with the tribute boat at all. We saw fire and shouts from a distance, and we couldn't take care of ourselves. We were fooled. Nonsense.Jue Jian appeared beside him: What kind of mystery are you playing?I saw the leader drive the tribute boat away with my own eyes. The people who covered the boat retreated from the bank while fighting. There were houses beside the river bank and it was impossible to see the river downstream. How did you know that something happened to the boat? It caused a commotion and discussions. Everyone looked for their companions and told each other what happened. screw you.Tianxiayi scolded angrily: We people have escaped death, but you are talking nonsense?Those lackeys set up an ambush in the river to make us happy in vain. Someone must have cheated and betrayed us.you are the only outsider Dog thing you heard clearly!An unknown fire from Jue Jian rushed directly to Tianling Gai: Only three people know about Li Xiong's plan.I started to rob the ship in Shaobo Town. I didn't know until the boat was less than five miles away from Shaobo Town.如果真有人吃裏扒外，也不可能知道動手的地方在何處，船距邵伯鎮五六里才宣佈，吃裏扒外的人難道是未卜先知的神仙？用這種漫天大謊騙得了誰？ 你這混蛋是條豬！天下一筆破口大罵：咱們能沒有出息扮成這般狼狽相，騙你一個外人？你未免太看得起你自己了。你不死，禍患不止，非宰了你不可 somebody is coming.Someone yelled. 五個黑影飛奔而至，可看到臂上的白巾記號。 趕快到灣頭鎮會合，教主在該處等候。領先奔來的大叫：貢船已被奪走，必須沿河追查線索。 絕劍一躍三丈，在遠處止步轉身。 不論是真是假，我絕對和你們沒完沒了！他咬牙切齒怒叫：我該分得兩三萬兩銀子，絕劍徐飛揚，將是你們一教一門永久債主，咱們江湖上見。 Can't chase.濁世威龍拉住天下一筆：那混蛋精力仍在，追上去損失將極為慘重。 絕劍掠走的速度令人心驚，眨眼間便已消失在夜空下。
