Chapter 293: Righteousness Rushes to the Mouth with a Pearl
Chen Mu expected that it was not bad at all.
These thugs of the Heavenly King Society, after blasting the * storehouse, went around in chaos, wanting to make an internal response to the accomplices on the river, and did not hesitate to demagogue, incite the people in the port area, and storm the defense line of the officers and soldiers.
In order to create chaos, they killed the doctors in the port area, so that the wounded could not be treated, and the people were panicked.
At this time, seeing that Chen Mu and Huang Feihong dared to come in, they seemed to have stabilized people's hearts, and they panicked.
When they gradually gathered together and wanted to take the opportunity to kill Chen Mu, they didn't expect that the shadow of death also hung over their heads!
Wang Julou, Li Sanjiang and others, leading their brothers, have long been eyeing each other, and they can see their every move clearly!
After getting Chen Mu's order, many brothers killed one after another, but it was only in the blink of an eye, and dozens of thugs were killed on the spot!
These people blew up the * library, killed the doctors, instigated the people, and led the way and the internal response to the ghosts, it is simply an unforgivable crime, and they are innocent!
Such a thunderous method finally calmed down the riot.
The port area was originally the territory of the community, and the appearance of Wang Julou, Li Sanjiang and others was also reassuring.
The move here also made the defenders stunned.
Although the rioters were killed, they were not at ease, let alone let the people in.
Chen Mu did not turn back to fight and intercede with Qingchang, and Huang Feihong had already brought the Langzhong people from Guangzhou City to treat the wounded, and the crisis was temporarily lifted.
The top priority is to silence those dozens of light guns, otherwise the enemy will attack the port, and these fleeers will definitely bear the brunt of the disaster of the pond fish!
"Senior brother, I'll leave it to you here......"
Huang Feihong also knew how tragic Chen Mu's trip was, and pinched Chen Mu's shoulder and said, "Come back early!" ”
This sentence is enough.
More than 100 brothers led by Wang Julou and Li Sanjiang only appeared briefly, and there were their families and brothers in the crowd, but they did not stop.
Because like Chen Mu, they knew very well in their hearts that if they didn't knock out those boats on the river, they couldn't say that they were safe.
Wang Julou held a pair of water backings and said to Chen Mu: "Brother, put it on." ”
Chen Mu waved his hand: "No need, hurry up." ”
He was no longer reluctant, and said to Chen Mu: "Say a few words to the brothers." ”
Chen Mu didn't want to say anything, but it could be seen that everyone's eyes were searching the crowd, secretly looking for his family, and he seemed to be a little absent-minded.
At the moment of the great enemy, the next thing to do is life and death, and such a mentality cannot be achieved.
"Brothers, don't look for it anymore, since you enter the Hongmen, your parents are my parents, your brothers and sisters are my brothers and sisters, your wife and my sister-in-law, your son and my nephew, if there is any violation, the five thunders will be destroyed!"
"These are all brothers and sisters, all sisters-in-law, nephews and relatives, and they will sink the ghost guy to the bottom of the river, and then come back to drink and sing!"
Disasters unite people, and many community brothers may still have discord and conflict on weekdays, but now, in the face of catastrophe and catastrophe, before the moment of life and death, personal grievances have become extremely small.
Chen Mu's words, although simple, ignited a fire in their hearts!
They are not street ruffians, they are not scoundrels, they have tasted blood for their alliance, maybe they will steal, maybe they have broken the rules and broken their oaths.
But at this time, a tragic and heroic emotion suddenly surged in their hearts.
What makes them different from other martial artists is that they have a common oath, the same belonging, and the same final limit!
They are of the same origin, they are all children of the Hongmen, and this ancient oath is the root that distinguishes them from other scoundrels!
When disaster strikes, the ruffians may retreat, fear, or even betray their friends for glory.
But as Hong Ying, they can't!
They should be grateful to Keicho for giving them such an opportunity to do great things that are as worthy of admiration as their ancestors in this impossible world!
Everyone raised their heads one after another, and there seemed to be something inexplicable in their eyes, that was qi!
It's as if a puppet has been infused with a soul!
No matter what the outcome of this battle is, Chen Mu is sure that if this group of people can come back alive, they will be reborn!
He walked forward silently.
The crowd parted and saw each other off in tears.
When everyone came to the river, the shells flew overhead, and they exploded behind them.
Wang Julou walked to the water's edge, took out a pearl from his bosom, and put it in his mouth.
The brothers behind him did the same.
Making a living with the sea is nine deaths, and you will be buried underwater at any time.
If they can't float up, the pearl in their mouth is their burial gift.
Pearl divers have been one of the most dangerous occupations since ancient times, and the pearls collected cannot be kept privately, but can only be handed over to the government.
They collect the most precious treasures in the world, but they live the most difficult days.
Therefore, the people who went into the water gradually inherited such rituals.
This pearl is not only a funeral object, but also one of the reasons why they came back alive, because without this pearl, the family will be punished, and in order for the family not to be punished, they must come back alive.
In addition, if they open their mouths, the pearls will fall, so they must keep their mouths closed, which also makes them hold their breath longer, and gradually they have cultivated a good kung fu of holding their breath for a long time under the water.
Wang Julou took out a pearl and handed it to Chen Mu, but Chen Mu didn't reach out to take it, but took out a dagger and bit it in his mouth.
When everyone saw this, their blood was also boiling, and they spit out the pearl and replaced it with a short knife and a dagger.
Chen Mu walked deeper, the water gradually submerged his knees, waist, shoulders, and finally took a breath, and Chen Mu plunged into the water!
More than 100 people, like more than 100 black sharks, dived towards the dozen iron boats on the river!
Chen Mu has practiced Yin and Yang Xuangong for so long, and his breath is long, and it is needless to say that he has to hold his breath.
But holding your breath in the water is a skill, some people hold their breath for a long time on weekdays, but they can't do it when they are in the water.
Chen Mu is the same, his breath is indeed long, but halfway through, he can only ventilate and sweep around, but no one probes to ventilate!
In this way, Chen Mu can be regarded as a lot of relieved.
When I got to the front, when I came up again, the iron ship was already in front of me!
Chen Mu was about to dive, but he saw that a person had already emerged from the bottom of the boat, and the cannon fire was shining, Chen Mu recognized that person at a glance, but it was not Haruko Ashiya!
It's like a dragon returning to the sea, and this female thief has finally regained her dignity!
Chen Mu no longer hesitated, after diving, he increased his speed, and a shadow appeared in front of him, and he came out of the water, and there was already a commotion on the boat!
Chen Mu climbed up the rope ladder and reached the deck, only to find that Haruko Ashiya and Sun Youlin had already killed all sides!
It's not easy to shoot on the ship, these ghosts are restrained, and they are reluctant to throw away foreign guns, where is the opponent!
"Gun bay!"
Sun Youlin reminded loudly, Chen Mu didn't say a word, and got out of the cabin.
These are the smuggling ships of the Heavenly King's Society, the displacement is not very large, although it is an iron-hulled ship, it is not a battleship, it is shoddy, and there are few gun muzzles.
Chen Mu entered the cabin, and those people only cared about loading and firing guns, and it wasn't until the first cannon was dumb that they discovered Chen Mu, the intruder!
Chen Mu walked in the low and cramped cabin without the slightest hesitation, like a breeze passing by, cutting wheat and mowing grass!
It was only a moment before Sun Youlin and Haruko Ashiya also came in.
Seeing the corpses all over the ground, the two of them were also short of breath and their faces were red!
"Did you see François?" Chen Mu asked.
Sun Youlin shook his head, and Chen Mu walked onto the deck, but unfortunately there was not a single living mouth left.
"Will you sail?"
Faced with Chen Mu's question, Sun Youlin was also a little embarrassed, and inevitably looked at Haruko Ashiya.
The female thief snorted and laughed, "Finally begged me......"
Chen Mu also smiled: "Will you?" ”
Haruko Ashiya raised her head: "I'm a pirate!" ”
Sun Youlin pushed her to the cockpit: "I know the female thief king, let's drive the boat!" ”
The iron boat whined, and soon turned around and drove towards the iron boat on the side, and after a while, it crashed into it with a bang!
Wang Julou and the others had already opened a killing ring on the deck, and this collision added another fire, and the battle soon ended.
Chen Mu stepped onto the deck and asked everyone, "Where is the foreigner master?" ”
Everyone shook their heads.
Just when he was wondering, there was a loud bang, and the whole ship was about to be thrown up!
"They found out!"
In the end, the impact exposed the traces of Chen Mu and the others, and the other ships turned their guns and wanted to bomb Chen Mu and the others to death!
"What about the other brothers?"
"They're boarding the ship, and they're afraid they'll be blocked!"
Chen Mu looked up, and the other ships were also shining with fire, and the shouts of killing were faintly heard, and the brothers should have boarded the ship.
It didn't take long for the cannons to stop, and the shouts of killing on the river became even louder!
"Haruko, go over and support!"
Chen Mu gave an order, and Haruko Ashiya got into the cockpit, but after a while, she came up quickly.
"The engine is broken, and I can't drive ......"
Seeing that the other ships were fighting, Chen Mu also looked at the port.
Chen Mu had to think about a question.
The artillery fire has stopped, where are the reinforcements?
There was no movement at all on the port side, and Qing Changshi swore with him by high-five, but where is it now?
Although he doubted it in his heart, Chen Mu couldn't care about it, and asked Wang Julou and others: "Go into the water and swim over!" ”
The crowd jumped into the water and swam into the other boats.
François still hasn't been found, the thugs and foreign gunners of the Heavenly King Society have killed a lot, and Qingchang didn't come to help in time, which inevitably made Chen Mu uneasy.
It is also a consolation that the brothers were all underwater raids, and the damage was not very great, and they boarded two ships in succession, and there were no deaths, which was finally a comfort.
Even if Keicho didn't come to help, this battle would have been a big victory.
But Chen Mu had to think, where is François?
"There are a few boats left, leave me a few foreigners, especially the generals, don't hurt your tongue, I have something to ask."
Although Chen Mu made such a plan, he didn't have too many expectations in his heart, and it was estimated that the possibility of finding François was not very great.
The artillery fire has stopped, but the shore still shines from time to time, which makes Chen Mu even more worried!
