Chapter 293: Water Bandits Infested

The merchants on the cargo ship were all in an indescribable panic, all of them pretended to be extraordinary, and naturally they did not want to die in this cold and turbulent river for no apparent reason.

Suddenly, someone raised his arms and shouted, "You don't have to mess around, don't forget that we also have people on our hands." As long as we arrest their guilt, we are not afraid that they will not let us go. ”

"Yes, yes, arrest the couple surnamed Huo. ”

"Yu Darttou, whether we can survive this time depends on you. ”

“......”

In the midst of the chaos, the originally closed cabin door was suddenly pushed open. In front of everyone's eyes, Liu Hui and Hua Lianyue walked out hand in hand, followed by Feng Qi and Xiao Fengnan behind them, one left and one right behind them.

No one thought that they would appear in front of people, and the chaotic situation suddenly fell into a strange silence. All eyes were on the young couple.

Liu Hui's handsome and noble face was particularly clear in the light of the lights under the corridor, and he did not shy away from meeting the hostile glares around him, his dark eyes were like ice and snow that had not melted for thousands of years, and the people who collided with his eyes were secretly cold.

He took Hua Liyue's hand and walked calmly in the corridor, the corners of his clothes blown by the river wind. In the face of such a strange atmosphere, they actually had a faint smile on their faces.

The young couple walked straight towards the dart masters who had planned to rush into the cabin and hold them hostage. The dart masters, who were originally ready to move, hesitated in the face of this calm young couple. One of the dart masters couldn't help but look back at Yu Darthead, the highest authority.

Just hesitated for a moment, Liu Hui and Hua Lianyue had already come to them. The dart masters were not given clear instructions and did not know what to do next, so most of them watched their every move vigilantly, and did not make any further moves.

Some of the young dart masters who couldn't hold their breath, when facing Liu Hui's deep eyes, were stimulated by the intense pressure that inexplicably surged in their hearts, and couldn't help but put their hands on the saber on their waists, and slowly pulled out the snow-bright blade that shone with cold light.

At this moment, everyone waited with bated breath, and the air seemed to be frozen, making it difficult for people to breathe. Some of them were timid, feeling that a heart was about to jump out of their chest, and they couldn't help but cover the side of their chest, and couldn't bear to look at the next five steps of blood splashing.

Xiao Fengnan, who was following Liu Hui, reached out and pinched the scabbard of one of them, and said with a smile on his face: "This little brother, the water bandits are some distance away from us, and it is not time to draw the knife yet." After speaking, he gently patted the person's shoulder, and then walked over indifferently.

The young dart master was a little confused by his actions, and after he walked over, he subconsciously wanted to pull out the saber that had been half unsheathed, but the shocked body of the knife seemed to be embedded in the scabbard, and he couldn't pull it out.

What's going on? If you can't even pull out a knife at a critical time, it's a big joke.

The young dart master raised his scabbard and shook it at the light, and immediately opened his mouth in astonishment. I saw that there were two more deeply sunken finger marks on the originally smooth and flat scabbard. One left and one right are extremely symmetrical, just enough to firmly embed the blade inside.

You don't have to think about it to know that this finger mark must have come out so casually by Xiao Fengnan. Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the young and vigorous dart master, and his scabbard was made of nitrate cooked cowhide, full of toughness, and a few hard slashes were only a few more white marks.

In this way, you can pinch it and change shape at will, and only a master who has cultivated the inner kung fu can do it. No wonder the young couple remained fearless in the face of the hostility of the whole boat, for they were protected by such an unfathomable master.

Are they really just bandits?

Liu Hui took Hua Lianyue and walked a few steps, he was light but not angry, no one dared to block his way all the way, so they avoided aside. He walked to the side of the boat unimpeded, facing the three clippers that were riding the wind and waves not far away, quickly catching up.

Liu Hui finally let go of Hua Lianyue's hand, and in front of everyone's eyes, he put his hands on the fence, stared at the distance for a moment, and then said aloud: "This place is only more than 100 miles away from Gunzhou, and there are dock markets in front and back, and there are passenger and cargo ships passing by at any time. As far as I know, although the water bandits in Qingfeng Village are rampant, they have been operating in the lower reaches of the Xinye River. We are walking through the canal, why do you think that these three clippers who can't see the whole picture clearly are the Qingfeng Zhai water bandits far away in the Xinye River?"

The strong river wind carried his words into everyone's ears, and it was such an understatement that made everyone recover a little from the panic.

It's also strange that the notoriety of Qingfeng Village is too loud, and the people who run the boat have more or less heard of it. When everyone suspected that the young couple was a water bandit, they naturally associated it with the Qingfeng Village.

A blue-robed merchant stood up and said in a loud voice: "Even if those three clippers are not Qingfeng Village water bandits, but look at this posture is also coming at our cargo ship, how can you explain this?"

"Explanation?" Hua Lianyue squinted her eyes and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid there are hundreds of guests on the ship, why do you just have to explain it to our husband and wife? Why don't you explain it first, what is the reason?"

A shrewd man with a slender face said sharply: "Just by the signal you released before the sunset, it is obvious that you are marking the direction to gather people. If you want to say that these three clippers were not recruited by you, I'm afraid no one will believe them. ”

Then he sneered and said, "Young lady, don't think that just because you husband and wife are shrewd, all of us are fools. If you are allowed to calculate so easily, the signboard of my Fuyuan dart game can also be smashed. ”

Xiao Fengnan, who was holding his arms and his face was leisurely, suddenly patted his thigh and said, "I said why do you look so familiar, it turns out that you are Yu Darthead of Fuyuan Dart Bureau." ”

The long-skinned man was stunned, and said in surprise: "You know me?"

Xiao Fengnan stepped forward a few steps, bowed first, and then greeted enthusiastically: "I haven't seen you for many years, Yu Darttou is really a noble person who forgets things, and he doesn't even know me."

I remember that there was a hundred-year-old jujube tree at the door, and I am afraid it has borne a lot of fruit this year! There is also the fourth young master in the house, who should have grown a lot taller in the past few years. I still remember the old lady's green spirit swordsmanship, which made it extremely mysterious, so that my little nephew and I still can't forget it. ”

Yu Darttou originally looked at him suspiciously, until he heard him mention the Qingling swordsmanship of the old mother at home, and he was slightly moved. I thought that my mother was more than sixty years old and had not touched anyone for many years. The people who have seen her perform the Qingling Sword Technique are all old friends who were close to each other in the early years.

Maybe the enthusiastic young man in front of him is the descendants of those old friends, who were brought to play by the elders of the family in the early years, so he will be so clear about the situation in the house.

Yu Darttou also secretly investigated their situation and knew the approximate origin of Xiao Fengnan. So he hugged his fists and saluted back, barely squeezed out a smile, and replied: "Thank you Brother Xiao for remembering, everything is safe at home, and the old lady's body is not as good as before, so she hasn't moved her muscles and bones for a long time." It's a pity that the four boys in my family have grown a lot taller in the past two years, but it's a pity that the old lady has spoiled them.

Now he is taller than his sister, and he still can't get on the stage. Just wait for a few more years, calm down, go out with his brothers, and have a good experience. ”

Hua Lianyue was also stunned when she heard it, thinking that Xiao Fengnan had really met an acquaintance. When Yu Darttou mentioned that he also had a daughter at home, she suddenly remembered that Xiao Fengnan had treasured a rich collection of beautiful paintings, and inexplicably felt a wonderful sense of sudden enlightenment.

Sure enough, I heard Xiao Fengnan continue: "I am relieved that the old lady is strong, and it is common for the old man to have a preference for the little grandson." I miss the jujube tree at the entrance of your mansion very much, I remember that time I ate a lot, the taste was crisp and sweet, until now I have never eaten such a delicious jujube. ”

When Yu Darttou heard him mention the jujube tree, a trace of imperceptible embarrassment flashed on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "That jujube tree is indeed some years old, and the dates it produces are also delicious." Unfortunately, the tree was too tall to attract thieves into the house, so I had it cut down in the early years. ”

Hua Lianyue didn't know if she was blown by the cold wind, and suddenly choked and coughed. Liu Hui didn't know why, so he hurriedly reached out and gently patted her back.

Xiao Fengnan glanced at her with a warning before continuing to greet Yu Dart: "Why did you cut it, that's a pity." ”

Yu Darttou obviously didn't want to talk too much about this jujube tree, so he changed the topic: "Forgive me for being clumsy, I vaguely remember that there is no surname Xiao among the old friends who made friends with my mother. I wonder which elder in the nephew's family is an old friend of my mother?"

Xiao Fengnan laughed: "Uncle Yu Shi is really a noble person who forgets things, you might as well think about it carefully......"

is shameless and even Uncle Shi shouted, it is really faceless and skinless to the extreme. Hua Lianyue coughed and secretly slandered.

The homely appearance of the two of them once again eased the tense atmosphere strangely. Yu Darthead has a high prestige in this group of dart masters, and if it is his familiar sons, nephews, and juniors, it should also be innocent. Many people slackened and once again cast their eyes on the dark river.

With this distraction, the three clippers seemed to be much closer, and the crowd once again began to stir uneasily.

Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted, Feng Qi said to Hua Lianyue with admiration on his face: "I thought that the surname Xiao was cynical, but I didn't expect him to be so broad-minded. Depending on the situation, those dart masters are mainly located at the head of the dart, and if they can use this relationship to clear up the misunderstanding, it can be regarded as an unexpected surprise. ”

Hua Lianyue finally stopped coughing, and when she heard the words, she almost choked on the cold wind again. She covered her mouth and nose with her sleeves and peeked in the direction of Xiao Fengnan. I just hope he's smarter and doesn't show his feet too early.

Hua Lianyue guessed that the big jujube tree he had repeatedly mentioned in front of people's homes must have secretly visited people's mansions with the convenience of that jujube tree. actually forced the old lady who was pampered in the inner house to personally use the Qingling Sword Technique on him, and even cut down the hundred-year-old jujube tree in a fit of anger, it is estimated that he committed a lot of things.

In her worried gaze, Xue Mei'er, accompanied by Fu'er, squeezed out from the back of the crowd. With a warm and gentle smile on her face, she even winked mischievously when she met Hua Liyue's eyes.

Hua Lianyue's heart sank, she knew Xiao Fengnan, and Xue Meier, who had been with him for a long time, must also know Xiao Fengnan. At this critical juncture, she rashly stood up, definitely not to help them.

Hua Lianyue grabbed Liu Hui's sleeve, and she used great force, which made Liu Hui slightly stunned, and then asked in a surprised whisper, "What's wrong?"

Hua Lianyue watched Xue Mei'er approach Xiao Fengnan step by step, she couldn't help lowering her voice, and said anxiously: "Xue Mei'er will do bad things, you must think of ways to stop her." ”

Feng Qi said in disbelief: "Just rely on her, what can a woman do?"

Hua Lianyue watched Xue Mei'er walk to Xiao Fengnan's side, sneered at her provocative hooked lips, and then withdrew her eyes and successfully talked to them: "Boss Xiao, Yu Darthead's Fuyuan Dart Bureau is famous in Huaiyang, but I didn't expect to be old friends with your family." We've known each other for so long, why haven't we heard you mention it?"

At this time, the gods couldn't stop Xue Meier's deliberate destruction. Hua Lianyue closed her eyes helplessly, and couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart.

Suddenly there was an exclamation in my ear: "I can see the flag on it clearly, it is really the unique flying fish flag ...... Qingfeng Village."

There was almost a moment of silence, and the merchants fell into a deep panic again. Some people ran back with their legs, and some people, like Liu Hui, grabbed the fence and stared into the distance, and more people began to look for a hidden place to hide on the boat.

Most of the people who run the boat know that in the Northern Underworld, where the Western Xia and the Eastern Qin meet, there is a large scattered island. These islands are small in size, but there are dozens of them. And they are all rock structures, and the land is very barren because of the very thin soil cover, and there are basically no tall plants to grow.

There used to be people who wanted to settle on the islands, but now except for the weeds, whatever they planted would be swept away by a great flood, and there would be no people alive at all, so the islands could only be deserted.

So some people joked that this scattered island is like the blue sky sung in the opera, and the breeze on his sleeves is empty.

It is precisely because of the treacherous living environment of this isolated island. Whether it is the Northern Underworld, the Western Xia, or the Eastern Qin, it is not in the eyes. Over time, this place has become a three-way zone.

There are many vicious people, who have nowhere to escape from the enemy, so they will hide on this island. Because it is surrounded by water on all sides, there are caves that extend in all directions to hide. As long as they can hide in smoothly, basically there is no way for the enemy to continue to seek revenge.

As time passed, more and more thugs took refuge on the island, and more and more food and daily necessities were needed. These wicked people don't know how to grow or fish, and the only thing they're good at is killing.

So in order to survive, they would gather together and rob all kinds of ships that passed through this water. Over time, it has formed a certain scale, and more and more wicked people are feeding on the island. So more than ten years ago, they finally played the banner of Qingfeng Village. And built a lot of fast boats, specializing in water robbery.

And the flag of Qingfeng Village is also very recognizable, it is a pair of eerie fish bones painted on the black cloth, but it is also painted with the wings of birds at the position of the pelvic fin of the fish bone. The water bandits in Qingfeng Village also gave it a nice name "Flying Fish Stream".

Legend has it that wherever the Flying Fish Streamer went, it was swept away as empty, as clean as leftover bones.
