There are twelve full-time guards on the ship, in order to protect the safety of the passengers on board.
Whether it is the safety of money or personal safety, they are all within the scope of their duties.
However, at this moment, the merchants on board all expressed that they are not safe at all.
Not to mention that all their money was stolen, now their lives are about to be taken away by the bandits — -they should at least leave something for them, right?
Everyone gathered on the deck, watching the three colliding ships with all kinds of flags hanging across the river, looking at the blood-stained canvas hull, followed by howls and screams.
"What should we do? What should we do? Are we going to die? "
"Those bandits, they won't kill people, right?"
"How could bandits not kill people? I heard they also eat people — – "
----
"That damn thief." Zhang Linpu's eyes reddened as he cursed in a flustered and exasperated manner.
"Brother Linpu, now that the bandits are right in front of us, why do you still care about worldly possessions?" His friend asked aloud. "Saving our lives is the most important thing."
"Brother Pingzhi, do you still not understand? What do bandits like the most? It's money. Our gold coins were all stolen, when the bandits break into the ship and ask us for money, we tell them the gold coins were stolen last night — -Would they believe us? If they can't get the money, then they will take our lives. "
"— — –" Niu Pingzhi also began to panic.
Li Muyang had a whole new level of respect for Zhang Linpu, thinking to himself that this guy was able to achieve such good results, he really is extraordinary. At the very least, his brain was much better than a human's.
Clamping his thighs, he felt that the bag of gold coins was still there, Li Muyang's nervous mood was slightly relieved.
He is rich!
If the bandits really boarded the ship to rob, under the circumstances that his friends could not take out any money, he could just take off his pants and count nearly a hundred gold coins in front of them, what kind of majestic and domineering scene would that be?
Although the posture is not elegant, but at least his sincerity is commendable, right?
The steward of the ship, Chen Tao, forced himself to calm down, but his pale face and intermittent words revealed the fear in his heart.
They have encountered bandits before, but it was only a small group of ten or thirty to fifty people. They would be sent away with some connections or some money.
What was going on today? Weren't there a little too many people?
"Soldiers are trained for a thousand days to be used in a single moment. Usually, he provided good wine and meat for everyone. Had he ever mistreated them? Brave warriors, now the ship is in trouble, we have encountered — — encountered a large group of Fowl Crying Lake pirates. The flags are in disorder, it could also be three groups — — I hope everyone can work together, bring out all your fighting spirit and courage — — "
"Manager Chen, it's not that we aren't doing our best. Look at the three big boats. I'm afraid there are at least a few hundred bandits on this trip. You want the twelve of us to resist hundreds of lake pirates — -Even if we're immortals we can't do it, right? "
"Exactly. Even if we're going to die, we have to die in a worthwhile way — — If we were to be slashed by a sword, would everyone here be fine? "
"It's better to tidy up the valuables and talk nicely to them — —"
----
The battle hadn't even started, but these bodyguards were already scared.
The most terrible thing was that Li Muyang thought what they said made sense.
Guards are also people, guards also have parents and children, if you want them to risk their lives — — it's the same as sending them to their deaths. They wouldn't be willing, right?
Chen Tao anxiously turned around to look at the crowd of scholars and said: "Everyone here is a talented person, now that a disaster is upon us, we're all grasshoppers on the same boat — — What do you think?"
"We have no money." Zhang Linpu shouted. "Even if we surrender, it's your ship company that will use money to send them away."
"Exactly. You can't just ask us to cut off a few kilograms of our flesh and send it over, right? "
"Manager Chen, you must stand up and take responsibility for this matter. We have no other way — — "
----
Li Muyang opened his mouth, but in the end no words came out.
He felt what everyone said was indeed reasonable.
Sure enough, in times of crisis, the wisdom of the masses is infinite.
As for power — — who would think of such a boring thing?
Chen Tao's lips squirmed as he said: "Let's get in touch first — — see what they want before we decide."
Three dilapidated ships rushed over, pulling apart the distance between them, forming a head-on intercepting stance.
The lake was wide, but there was no place for the ship to pass through.
Chen Tao ordered the sailors to slow down the speed of the ship, so that the ship wouldn't collide with them. Before the other party could make a move, their ship would break into the water and be swept away by the huge waves.
On top of the ship in the lead, stood a bald man who looked like he was cast from copper.
There was a deep scar on the man's face, from the tip of his eyebrow to the corner of his mouth, and half of his eye was cut open.
Therefore, he wore a copper blindfold on his glasses, which made him look like a pirate who roamed the distant seas.
The burly man looked at the approaching ship and shouted, "Take my chain."
As a result, more than ten subordinates struggled to drag a chain as thick as an arm over, the front end of the chain was a crescent moon hook.
"Children, disperse."
The scar-faced man roared, then swung the chain up, spun it a few times in the air, and then slammed it towards the ship.
The copper hook was huge and incomparably heavy, producing a whistling sound in the air.
Kacha — —
The copper hook smashed onto the deck, the sharp hook deeply embedded into the hull of the ship.
"Boss is amazing, boss is unparalleled — —"
"Good job Flowery Monk, this time you've done a great job — —"
"Pull him over, pull him over — —"
----
Seeing their leader's remarkable abilities, the bandits on the ship burst into cheers.
"You guys watch." Flowery Monk laughed heartily, then used his body to coil the chain twice, and exerted force with his arm.
Whoosh — —
Under the control of Flowery Monk, the ship swiftly sped towards their encirclement.
The faces of everyone on the ship were ashen.
Isn't this too frightening?
They should have just been robbing, but now they're performing acrobatics. The hook smashed into the ship, creating a huge hole. If it smashed into a person, would that person still be alive?
Li Muyang's face also turned grave and stern.
There's only a little bit of gold in his crotch, most likely not enough to satisfy the appetite of these people, right?
The ship was like a big fish biting the hook, being dragged by a fisherman towards the shore.
When they entered the encirclement of the three ships, the bandits jumped off the ship, killing and robbing, committing all sorts of crimes.
Li Muyang stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, accumulating qi in his dantian.
He was secretly on guard.
At this critical moment, a black robe fluttered in the air.
A man and a sword appeared out of thin air, the sword like a shocking rainbow, blazing with flames as it slashed towards the arm-thick iron chain.
Cha — —
The iron chain broke into two. Flowery Monk on the ship exerted too much force, the chain suddenly broke and his body staggered backwards.
The black-robed man fluttering in the air slowly descended, both feet standing on the mast of the ship. The white sail surged and the black robe fluttered in the wind. The ship that was moving along with the current suddenly stopped moving.
Cold-Faced Bodhisattva Cui Zhaoren!
More than ten black-robed men had already silently leapt onto the top of the ship, their hands pressed against the hilt of their swords, staring coldly at the three ships opposite them.
"Who dares to cut off Grandpa Hua's iron chain?" Flowery Monk Lu Tian was flustered and exasperated, shouting loudly towards the other side. "Come, come, tell me your name, let grandpa teach you how to be a person — —"
Cui Zhaoren's expression was indifferent, but his heart was burning with anger.
These damn guys, of all people they could target, they just had to target the ship they were on.
If they did not make a move, it's impossible to rely on the group of trash on the ship to block the bandits.
However, if they made a move, their whereabouts would most likely be exposed, the Lu Family and the forces of the Lu Family would follow and rescue them — —
While they were still hesitating, the ship was hooked by Flowery Monk's' Luohan Soul Hook ', the entire ship was about to be dragged into the encirclement.
If they wait any longer, their whereabouts will still be exposed.
Cui Zhaoren's murderous intent was piercingly cold, he angrily made a move and severed Flowery Monk's copper hook.
"There's a path in the starry sky but you don't want to take it, there's no gate to hell yet you insist on taking it." Cui Zhaoren's eyes were cold and indifferent as he shouted aloud: "Kill them all, don't leave a single one alive."
"Yes." More than ten black-robed men received the order and responded in an arrogant voice.
Clang — —
More than ten treasured swords were unsheathed, then they divided into three groups, soared into the sky and flew towards the three ships.
Immediately, a fierce battle unfolded on the three ships.
The black-robed men were highly skilled and their methods were ruthless. Every time they drew their sword, it was aimed at the bandit's vital body part.
With one slash, the head would be separated from the body.
Cui Zhaoren aimed at the swearing Flowery Monk, the corners of his mouth curved upwards, revealing a charming smile. "You want to teach me how to be a person, I'll make it so you can't be a person — —"
As he spoke, his body leapt up again.
His robe fluttered in the air, his body was like a roc soaring in the vast sky.
He swooped down from above, thrusting his sword towards Flowery Monk's bald head.
Flowery Monk let out a wild laugh, reached out to grab the broken half of the iron chain and brandished it again, the long chain like a long snake smashing into the air. He shouted: "Good, let grandpa — —"
He couldn't continue his words.
Because Cui Zhaoren suddenly sped up.
His sword pierced into Flowery Monk's head.
His body sank, the sword also descended.
One sword startles the god.
One sword seizes the soul.
The sword pierced all the way down to the hilt.
"Even a bandit should study more, isn't it good to rob in a gentle and refined manner?" Cui Zhaoren's body stood upside down in the air, facing Flowery Monk whose head was oozing with blood.
Then, with a twist of his body, the sword was pulled out.
Screech — —
Blood red like a well, sprayed into the dark blue sky.
