The sound of arrows breaking through the air, the muffled sound of flesh being slashed by blades, and the snorting of blood after the blade is drawn, the shouting, running, and the aggressive sound of flying claws and hooks...... There were occasional begs for mercy and scolding in the middle, because the doors and windows of the cabin were closed, and the scene outside could not be seen.

…… I don't know how long it took, the noise outside gradually subsided, and Rong Sleeping Crane's calm and indifferent voice came in: "Clean up!"

There was a sudden sound of relief in the cabin.

After a while, the hatch finally opened, and Rong Sleeping Crane walked in, the group still had an unexhausted edge and murderous aura, and the robes were also a little messy, and the dark robes were not easy to see the stains, but the bloody gas that poured in with the sea breeze just opened the door proved how dangerous their experience was.

"It's all right. But whether it was Rong Sleeping Crane or the people under his hands, his expression was relaxed, and while asking people to open the porthole to breathe, he said with a smile, "Some thieves who don't have long eyes turned around and cut off their heads and sent them to the shore, maybe they can pick a few bonuses." ”

"Cousin, are you all right?" Sheng Weiqiao knew that they were fine, and after looking at them at this time, he put his mind at ease, but Li Shengxu was a little dizzy from the bloody gas, and said tremblingly, "Actually, if they are just asking for money, it is okay to give them some silver...... You take the lead like this, if you get hurt, how can't you make it?"

Rong Sleeping Crane glanced at him with a smile and said, "Cousin, have you thought about it? The destination of our trip is Nanfeng County, and even if the sea ships rush day and night, they still have to walk for half a month! Today, this gang of thieves spent money to buy peace, what should we do if we come back again? Let's not take the silver to heart, as for using the silver to pave a road to Nanfeng County?"

Li Shengxu hurriedly said: "We can go ashore and take the land route instead!"

"Then what if there are bandits on the land?" Rong Sleeping Crane said disapprerovingly, "Don't worry, this kind of thief is the most bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, killing a batch, and his accomplices know that we are not easy to mess with, so they naturally dare not take us next!"

He also said, "I have already asked someone to tie a few thieves who have cut our people to the back of the boat, and when the fish will come over to share the food, you and your attendants will not be able to see that kind of picture, so be careful, don't go behind the boat!"

Sheng Weiqiao and Li Shengxu's faces turned pale at the same time when they heard this, Sheng Weiqiao had long known that the Wuyi Battalion was cruel, and because she and her two sisters had fallen into the hands of pirates, she hated pirates, so at this moment, although she imagined such a scene, she felt a little unbearable, and made up her mind not to go to the back of the boat in the future, but she didn't have any objections.

But Li Shengxu couldn't bear to say: "If you can't kill people too much, why should you let people die without a whole corpse?

"Master Hou, have you forgotten what the county king just said, those thieves who came to rob just now, but there are still accomplices!" Hearing this, Sheng Weiqiao was about to speak, but Li Chen had already said eagerly, "If we don't use thunder to deter those people at this time, what if there are bandits who find us next?!"

Even if he didn't, Li Chen didn't object to Rong Sleeping Crane at all!

You have to know that when he heard that when he met a bandit, his soul was almost scared away, okay?!

He is the son of the Li family, and the old man left behind by Yangwu Hou Li Jun, because Li Jun died early, Li Shengxu was raised by the eldest princess of Wuyang alone, and lived in the eldest princess's mansion when he was a child, so he was naturally not close to the old man of the Li family.

This trip to the south was an errand that he had won with great difficulty in showing his loyalty and dedication, and he thought that he could improve his status in the eyes of the lord and seek a good future.

As a result, I ran into a pirate!

Fortunately, Rong Sleeping Crane has the ability to repel this killing talent!

Otherwise, Li Chen didn't want to go back to see the eldest princess of Wuyang, it was his family in the Yichun Hou Mansion who had to bury Li Shengxu!

Therefore, Li Chen has no sympathy for these pirates at all, and wishes that they would be as miserable as possible before they can be angry!

At this moment, he persuaded Li Shengxu, "What's more, you probably didn't notice what the county king said, those pirates who were tied to the back of the ship were all slashed by our people, think about it, if you sympathize with them, wouldn't it chill the hearts of the guards of the county king's mansion?"

Saying this, Li Shengxu nodded again and again, and offered to visit a few people who were cut, and Rong Sleepy Crane casually pointed to a subordinate to show him the way...... Originally, those people should have been carried directly into the cabin for diagnosis and treatment, but Rong Sleeping Crane was worried that he would scare the two petites who grew up in the greenhouse in the cabin, the point was that Sheng Weiqiao had a continuous high fever after being stimulated by blood, and it was not a once, so he asked people to carry all of them to the side of the boat to clean up, and after washing the deck quickly, only brought in the uninjured people.

After Li Shengxu's master and servant left, Rong Shenghe looked at Sheng Weiqiao and said with a smile: "Are you afraid?"

"I haven't seen anything, what's there to be afraid of?" said the girl, giving him a blank look, "and I've never seen such a battle before...... Have you forgotten that time I also snatched Xu Baomo's sword and cut off the head of the young master Han!

glanced left and right, and saw that Li Shengxu's subordinates were not there, and whispered, "Suddenly came here like this, your previous wishful thinking is about to fail!"

Rong Shenghe understood what she meant, he was in favor of Li Shengxu playing in the water before, and even sent his subordinates to accompany him to coax Li Shengxu to go to the sea, the picture is to make Li Shengxu like to go to sea to play, so that after arriving in Nanfeng County, it is logical to lead this cousin to meet Tortoiseshell Island when he goes to sea.

But Li Shengxu is now frightened by the bandits, and when he arrives in Nanfeng County, whether he will be willing to go to sea is hard to say!

"It's nothing, he's willing to go out. Rong Sleeping Crane smiled and said, "Anyway, the pirates are also people, can't they go ashore yet?"

Because after all, a group of pirates had just been repelled from the attack, and although there were no dead on the ship, the wounded, prisoners, confessions, and captures were ...... Especially the other party's two clippers, these need to be dealt with by Rong Sleeping Crane.

So he accompanied Sheng Weiqiao to say a few words to make sure that the girl was not frightened this time, and he sent Sheng Weiqiao back to the cabin on the third floor and went to clean up the aftermath.

The whole ship was very busy that day, and although the blood stains on the deck were washed by the sea before the battle was over, the smell of blood still lingered on the whole ship until nightfall, lingering.

In the middle of the night, Rong Sleeping Crane, who had finally taken care of everything and bathed and changed his clothes, had just asked someone to carry away the bath bucket and prepare to settle it in the account, when suddenly Sheng Weiqiao's low voice came from above his head: "Hey!

"Good girl, what's wrong?" Rong Sleeping Crane was very surprised, after jumping up the third floor, he reached out and pinched the girl's chin, kissed it, and then asked with a smile, "But you don't dare to sleep alone, and you plan to call me to come up and accompany you?"

"You don't dare to sleep alone!" Sheng Weiqiao slapped him and said, "If I really don't dare to sleep alone, I won't call the maid to come in and accompany the bed?"

Seeing that Rong Sleeping Crane was a little dishonest, he hit him again, and said, "Don't make trouble! I'll tell you the right thing: those people today...... Is it really a pirate?!"

Rong Sleeping Crane smiled: "Good girl, what is it that you are not a pirate when you do robbery at sea?"

Sheng Weiqiao sneered, walked to the round table with Huanghuali inlaid marble carved landscape figures, sat down, turned over the tea bowl on it, poured himself a cup of tea and drank a few sips, and then said coldly: "You can use this to fool Li Shengxu and his entourage! Fool me? You really don't know how to learn, and you can't even see such obvious flaws?!"

"Not to mention that when we went north to Chang'an before, we didn't meet any pirates at all on the sea route!"

"How did you just catch up when you came back?"

"Let's just say that this is almost to the south of the Yangtze River, and it is not a few days away from Bishui County, not only that General Zhou Da presided over Jinghai before he vigorously swept it, but after the accident of Duke Huan before, the imperial court in order to prove that the bandits were the culprits who murdered Duke Huan, but specially ordered the imperial court sailor to grate Bishui County and the nearby sea area like a grate!"

"Our position at the moment is within the range!"

"Because Duke Huan has never been found, the court still says that the real murderer is a bandit. This area has become a forbidden area that the Seven Sea Pirates dare not touch, after all, although Duke Huan does not have capable blood relatives, there is no shortage of high-ranking officials among his disciples!"

"Whether these people are out of reverence for their mentor or for their reputation in front of the world, if they know that there are bandits in this sea, how can they sit idly by?!"

"How stupid would a pirate do such a thing to find death?!"

"Also, although I was in the cabin just now, I couldn't see what was happening outside, but I heard it clearly: after the sea ship cut down the sails and dropped anchor and stopped, the two clippers soon came up, and they didn't even shout for money, they just came up and did it!"

"I remember three years ago, when I was captured by Young Master Han with Xu Baomo, when the bandit ship was far away, it was true that it could only play flags, but when it was close, especially when it was engaged in broadside battles, they would shout out their purpose to threaten and intimidate the people on the plundered ship!"

"Are these so-called pirates too silent today?"

"I don't want money, I just want to kill people...... Could this be a pirate who happens to meet us who wants to make a windfall?!"

Sheng Weiqiao frowned and looked at him, "Still, it was premeditated and came to target you and me or Li Shengxu...... Killer?!"

"......" Rong Sleeping Crane looked strange, and after a while, he walked over, reached out and pinched her cheek, and said suspiciously, "Are you really my good girl?"

"What do you mean?!" Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then blew his hair, slapped his hand away, and said angrily, "Could it be that in your mind, I am just a stupid person who doesn't know anything?!!

Seeing that she was very excited to grasp the edge of the round table when she spoke, she had a bad answer, so she smashed the whole table on her head, Rong Sleeping Crane immediately said: "Good girl, you misunderstood! I mean, good girl, you didn't feel so sorry for me before! I am really flattered to suddenly worry about me like this now!"

Sheng Weiqiao's anger eased slightly, turned his head to the side, and snorted coldly: "I don't feel sorry for you! I just think that these people have soiled one of our Sheng family's good sea boats, and I don't know if it was damaged, so I don't find out what is behind them and make people unhappy!"

Rong Sleeping Crane couldn't help but smile: "Well, what the obedient girl said is very right! Because the two clippers they took were unscathed, I have already personally checked them, and there is no problem at all with the boat driving back to Nanfeng County!

"You don't change the subject!" Sheng Weiqiao straightened his face, but actually concealed his shyness, and said angrily, "Seriously! What is the origin of those pirates? Who are they coming for? You can't even leave a living mouth, right? Even if you don't have a live mouth, the clipper is not something that every household can have, and you should always find some clues?"

Rong Sleeping Crane still smiled and said, "Actually, you don't need to ask for a confession, I know who it is!"

Sheng Weiqiao hurriedly asked, "Who?"
