Chapter 46: Pirates

Just as Tang Mo was looking at the night sky outside in a daze, he suddenly heard the sound of shouting and killing coming from the direction of the city wall in the distance. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's a pirate, there's a pirate coming!" a frightened voice came from outside.

Tang Mo saw a firelight appear in the direction of the city wall, and before he could react, he heard someone shouting again, "The city is broken! The pirates have broken the city!"

Tang Mo had a bad heart, and the plague of pirates also appeared in this period in history, because of the ruthless combat style of pirates, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had almost no resistance to pirates at the beginning. When the pirates broke the city, it meant that the county's defenses were completely lost.

Soon, Tang Mo saw a group of pirates rushing into the county seat from the direction of the city gate, and after they entered the county seat, they immediately divided into several groups and broke into the ordinary houses. Then there were screams, and it was clear that they were doing something very bad.

After another team of pirates broke through the city, they rushed directly to the inn, and after brutally smashing the gate, they rushed directly in.

Tang Mo picked up his short sword, and Li Lingyue also picked up the sword.

The door was kicked open and two pirates rushed in.

They were dressed in tattered clothes, but the menacing expressions on their faces revealed their identities.

The two pirates were both holding bright scimitars, and when they saw Tang Mo and Li Lingyue, the two pirates rushed over impatiently.

Li Lingyue swiped two swords, and the two pirates were pierced through their eyebrows and fell to the ground and died.

After all, she is a congenital master, and a mere pirate is like an ant in front of her.

After Li Lingyue killed the two pirates, he and Tang Mo killed them out of the room, at this time there was already a mess outside, more than a dozen pirates rushed into the guest room, killing people and robbing, Tang Mo and Li Lingyue killed all the pirates they saw, and when they reached the door of the inn, they already had more than a dozen pirates' souls under their swords.

Li Lingyue and Tang Mo left the inn, alone, facing the pirates who had already spread throughout the city, even they felt powerless.

But it was better to kill than not to kill, so they left the inn and began to search the streets for pirates.

Soon, Li Lingyue and Tang Mo found a lone pirate who was robbing the property of a civilian's arms, and Li Lingyue flew out with a sword qi and killed him directly.

The pirate fell to the ground, and the civilians who had survived the death saw that the pirate had been killed and fled in a hurry.

Li Lingyue and Tang Mo continued to move forward, looking for the next pirate.

"Please spare me, my child is not yet a year old!" In the corner of the front wall, two pirates blocked a woman's path.

The woman was holding a baby in her arms, the child was not large, less than a year old, and was crying in fear.

The two pirates pressed on the woman with fierce expressions, and one of the pirates snatched the baby in his daughter's arms and was about to be hacked to death with a knife.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue happened to arrive, Li Lingyue saw from a distance that people couldn't get close, so she slapped her palm in the air, and she was really lucky, and a suction force was generated out of thin air, sucking the baby in the pirate's hand.

The baby fell into Li Lingyue's hand, still crying, Li Lingyue handed the baby to Tang Mo, and then rushed over with a sword.

Li Lingyue rushed to the pirate with a sword, and a pirate slashed at Li Lingyue with a scimitar, Li Lingyue used his sword to remove the scimitar, and then stabbed the pirate to death.

Another pirate turned around and tried to escape, but was killed from behind by Li Lingyue with a sword aura.

The rescued woman caught the baby handed back by Tang Mo and cried excitedly, and then she thanked her repeatedly, her expression was excited.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue asked her to find a quiet place to hide, and then continued to search for the remaining pirates.

The pirates are still plundering wantonly, and Cangxian is like a piece of fat meat for them, which can be fully feasted.

The female disciples of the White Lotus Sect chose to stay closed after the pirates broke the city.

Countless people in Cangxian County were killed by pirates, and Tang Mo and Li Lingyue rescued some people during their rush, but it was also a drop in the bucket.

It wasn't until a few hours later that the pirates had had enough of looting and evacuated Cangxian on their own.

At this time, the White Lotus Sect reappeared and began to trick people into joining the White Lotus Sect, saying that if they wanted to escape the hardships, only joining the White Lotus Sect was the right path.

The appearance of pirates brought great losses to Cangxian, and many civilians were killed, but the warriors of Cangxian County did not lose a trace of it.

Half of the officials of the government fled and after the pirates left, the officials of the government turned back and began to count the losses in Cangxian.

The samurai family was not damaged in this pirate plague, so some people began to suspect that the samurai family was collaborating with the enemy.

Because of the suspicion that the samurai family collaborated with the enemy, the officials of the government secretly bribed the servants of the samurai family, trying to find out the evidence of the samurai's collaborator.

But after many searches, it was fruitless.

Because of this, the government officials were so angry that they wanted to fabricate evidence to embarrass the martial artists.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue killed a lot of pirates that night, and after the pirates left, they did not stay in Cangxian anymore, but went to another place, the capital.

Because Tang Mo realized that if he wanted to break through the realm, it was useless to rely on penance alone, and he had to go to the red dust to temper his mind.

The capital is the most prosperous place in the world, and it is also the best place to refine the heart, so Tang Mo chose the capital.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue came to the capital a few days later, compared with before, the capital is still prosperous, but after experiencing the military turmoil, there is always a bleak smell in this prosperity.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue came to the bank of the Qinhuai River, and they were going to find a painting boat to buy it, so as to have a good experience of right and wrong in the red dust.

At the beginning, Li Lingyue had gone through a lot of cultivation before she slowly reached that level, and the perception in martial arts had no way to fake herself, so she could only rely on herself to comprehend.

Tang Mo and Li Lingyue wandered along the banks of the Qinhuai River, and they began to ask if there was a painting boat they wanted to sell.

Soon, they got the news from the middleman that there were three painting boats that wanted to be sold, the most expensive was 500,000 taels, and the cheapest was 230,000 taels.

These three painting boats have their own advantages and disadvantages, one of which is a painting boat, Tang Mo is very familiar with, that is the painting boat where Jia Fairy used to be, but Jia Fairy has now moved elsewhere, otherwise the painting boat would not be in a hurry to sell.

Tang Mo didn't choose this one in the end, after all, without Fairy Jia, the painting boat would not be worth much, the important thing was just the name of Fairy Jia.

Instead of packing up a bunch of outdated stuff, it's better to clean it up and start over.

In the past, after the good fairy got the condensing fairy dew, she became the first famous concubine on the Qinhuai River, and the scenery of the good fairy at that time is still fresh in Tang Mo's memory.

The painting boat that Tang Mo bought was just a small painting boat with a little-known name, but Tang Mo was not afraid, she had Ning Xianlu and naturally had things ten times better than Ning Xianlu, and whether the painting boat was famous or not made no difference to her.

After spending 230,000 taels, Tang Mo became the hostess of this "Spring Festival".
