Yan Li said, "I said, there's no need for you to keep up the act."
"What do you mean?" The leader narrowed his eyes.
Yan Li said, "Your true leader is him, right?" He pointed at the kneeling Blackbeard.
Everyone was shocked and looked at him in disbelief.
"Are you crazy?" Blackbeard shouted. "Are you saying that I colluded with the pirates to steal your money?"
"That's right," Yan Li said.
One of the passengers said angrily, "You broke the rules of the Water Gang. You'll die a horrible death."
"Don't listen to his nonsense!" Blackbeard's face turned red.
"I think you're scared senseless!" The leader said coldly. "I've decided. The others can keep their lives as long as they pay up. As for you, I'll break your bones one by one!"
Yan Li laughed. "That's a good idea. I'll try it on you."
The Daoist said, "How do you know they're colluding?"
Yan Li said, "Look at the ferry crossing behind us."
Everyone leaned out of the boat and looked. After a long time, they found a ferry crossing. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time and was almost submerged in water plants.
Yan Li said, "It's obvious that the river has changed direction. That's why there's an abandoned ferry crossing. Also, and most importantly, not only did they not set up any obstacles, they had no tools, nothing at all. How could they stop the boat? "
Blackbeard's face gradually calmed down. He stood up and pulled out a pipe from his waist. He lit it and took a deep breath before exhaling comfortably. Then, he revealed his yellow teeth and laughed. "There are always people in this world who like to meddle in other people's business."
Everyone stared at him in a daze.
With an ominous glint in his eyes, he walked to the center of the boat. "Just now, if you obediently paid up, you could all live. I just wanted money. Now, you're all going to die!"
"You're going to silence us!" someone cried out in shock.
Yan Li rushed forward and unsheathed the sword on his back. With a swish, he cut off the head of the fake leader.
His eyes were wide open and almost popped out of their sockets. He still couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Yan Li shouted, "You've all come out to roam Jianghu. Don't you have any guts? You'd rather hide at home and drink your milk than wait to be slaughtered by bandits! "
"Fight it out with them!"
Wang Qianfan suddenly roared.
…
Yan Li walked on the forest path.
The battle that was neither thrilling nor fun had passed a long time ago.
Now, he was faced with another problem.
The Daoist priest also took this path.
It was fine if he left, he could pretend that he didn't see anything. However, the Daoist priest was probably tired from walking, so he untied his alpaca and hung it on the little girl.
It was difficult for the little girl to take two steps, and she immediately fell to the ground.
Not only did the Daoist priest not go up to help her, he even said in a cold tone, "If you can't keep up, then get lost."
The little girl seemed terrified. She struggled to get up and limped to catch up. No matter how difficult the road was, she always stayed one step behind, as if it would be the end of the world if she did not.
Yan Li found that her injury had not healed yet.
"Wait, Taoist," he suddenly shouted.
The Daoist stopped and glanced at him. "What's the matter?"
Yan Li asked, "Is she your disciple?"
"What does that have to do with you?" the Daoist priest asked.
Yan Li said, "If she's not, I want to buy her."
The Daoist priest laughed. "As long as you pay, it doesn't matter if she's a disciple or something else."
But his smile suddenly disappeared, and his eyes were full of mockery. "I'm afraid you can't afford it."
Yan Li turned to the little girl and asked, "What's your name?"
The little girl looked at the Daoist priest, then looked at Yan Li, and shook her head.
"You can't speak?" Yan Li was surprised.
The little girl nodded.
The Daoist priest mocked, "How about it? Do you want to see what she looks like before you decide to buy her?"
"No need, how much do you want?" Yan Li said.
The Daoist priest sneered, "If she's willing to be with you, I won't take a single coin; if she's not, I'll take ten thousand soul stones from you."
Yan Li said seriously, "Let's not talk about how much ten thousand soul stones means! I'm not saving her because I'm kind. I just feel that the suffering she's going through with you is unnecessary and ridiculous. "
The Daoist priest looked calm and glanced at the little girl. "Use Renounce Yourself, Hide Your Actions."
The little girl shook her head at Yan Li without hesitation.
It seemed that she had rejected him.
Yan Li said, "Since it's your own choice, I won't interfere. Besides … "
He shrugged. "I can't take out ten thousand soul stones."
The Daoist priest said angrily, "You don't have money, why are you discussing business with others? Aren't you wasting my time!" With that, he turned and left.
The little girl bowed to Yan Li a few times, then followed him. She happened to be one step behind, and followed him.
Ten thousand soul stones!
Yan Li felt that either the Daoist priest had gone crazy, or he had gone crazy.
He shook his head and was about to continue walking when he suddenly heard the Daoist priest's faint voice.
"Remember, this poor Daoist is called Ku Daoshi. If you're in trouble, just say it in your heart, and this poor Daoist will save you once."
Yan Li rubbed his eyes. The Daoist priest who was walking in front of him just now was nowhere to be seen.
He was shocked. Could it really be some kind of expert?
After a few steps, he heard Ku Daoshi's voice again.
"So, kind person, can you save this poor Daoist once …"
After a few more steps, he found a pit in front of him. Ku Daoshi fell to the bottom of the pit, and looked at Yan Li with a sad face. "This, this poor Daoist seems to have sprained his ankle."
…
Southern Phoenix Territory, Luohe Village, 50 miles away from Wuyang City.
A carriage stopped at the entrance of the village.
Beside the carriage, two handsome young men in embroidered clothes were talking.
"The Tower Master is not very happy," said one of the young men with peach blossom eyes.
"I know." The other young man was tall and slender, and his voice was magnetic. He wore black embroidered clothes and looked a little cold.
The young man with peach blossom eyes said, "But the princess is dead. There's nothing we can do about it. The disciples of Dusk Cloud Tower can't marry a dead body."
The cold young man's face darkened. "I won't run away from my failure."
The young man with peach blossom eyes said with a smile, "So you must succeed this time, or you won't be able to keep your position in the tower."
The cold young man did not say anything.
The young man with peach blossom eyes continued with a smile, "But I'm afraid the target this time won't be easy. The Tower Master also wants to test you. "
"Tell me the target," the cold young man said.
The young man with peach blossom eyes said, "Her name is Shen Liuyun. Like her name, she's like a breeze and a bright moon. She's using a technique suspected to be from the Dragon Elephant Mountain. We've investigated for a long time, and there's no disciple like her in the Dragon Elephant Mountain, so …"
The cold young man frowned slightly.
The young man with peach blossom eyes smiled mysteriously and said, "If you succeed, Dusk Cloud Tower can be changed to Muyun Clan. Don't worry, although she's ranked fifth on the List of Beauties, we've already laid out the situation for you. As long as you use your strength, it won't be difficult. "
The two entered the village.
It was a bleak scene in the village.
There were pale-faced patients lying on stretchers everywhere.
At this moment, a woman walked out from one of the houses. The moment she appeared, she was like a snow lotus that bloomed in everyone's heart. An indescribable fragrance penetrated through the soul, reaching straight to the other side.
Those patients who were moaning softly immediately pulled themselves together and forced a smile, as if exposing their painful side would desecrate her holiness.
The cold young man's face gradually softened, and his hands unconsciously clenched.
The young man with peach blossom eyes saw this and went up to her with a smile. He cupped his hands and said, "Miss Shen, I've brought the Divine Doctor Liu that you mentioned previously. How are you going to thank me?"
That woman glanced at the two of them indifferently and said, "You're here."
The cold young man fixed his eyes on the woman, took a deep breath and cupped his fists, "I'm Liu Sanbian, greet Miss Shen."
