"Ah, kill ......"

The terrible screams stopped abruptly, as if someone had suddenly covered their mouths.

But even so, Zhu Yifeng, who had just killed a person, was still startled, and at the same time that the corpse between his arms fell, he looked in the direction where the voice came from, and in the dim light and shadow he saw, there was a guy with a plate in his hand, who was the guy who spoke Shaanxi dialect before.

I saw him standing there in astonishment, covering his mouth with his hands in fright. But despite this, his voice still reached Zhu Yifeng's ears, but at this time, Zhu Yifeng had no time to pay attention to anything else, and there was only one thought left in his mind.

Kill!

Kill him!

Only by killing him can you save your life!

He was almost desperate to rush towards the fellow, his hands slammed into the other's neck, and then forced, steely fingers on his neck, tightened, tightened and tightened.

“……”

Unlike the previous strangulation of others with his arms from behind, now directly facing the person he killed, Zhu Yifeng's heart only felt an unprecedented fear, but the desire for life made his hand harder and harder.

Because of his great strength, the young man, whose head was only up to his shoulders, was lifted by him, and his feet gradually lifted off the ground, and finally he could only touch the ground on tiptoe.

The fear of suffocation instantly grabbed the boy's internal organs, and he groaned, kicked his feet, grabbed him with both hands, and tried to break his hands.

But this struggle was in vain.

In the face of the frightened eyes, Zhu Yifeng's heartbeat continued to accelerate, and from his bloodshot eyes, which were about to burst out, he saw the young man's desire for life, and his fear of himself.

When his hands were constantly exerting force, he could even feel the feeling of the teenager at this time, he was falling into a state of lack of oxygen, his organs wanted to vomit, his body was convulsive, and his eyes were faint for a while.

When his neck seemed to be choked by steel tongs, it made people think that he was about to die. But another voice echoed in his head: It is not worth dying at the hands of this man...... Worth......

However, without any strength, his hands were wrapped around his neck, he couldn't hide at all, struggled, couldn't break free, and just when the vision in front of him was getting blurred and blurred, he suddenly felt that the hand holding his neck seemed to be loosening.

When the tears kept flowing out, when his eyes began to drift, the tears and the desire for life in those eyes for no reason made Zhu Yifeng loosen slightly, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly let go.

The hand that was holding his throat was released, and the body that had been lifted up had no support, leaning against the wall, sliding little by little.

While breathing again, people kept coughing, breathing desperately, and saliva involuntarily flowed down and dripped on the back of their hands.

Panting for air.

The lungs were emptied, and then filled with air, as if there were cold forceps, clamping the lungs, and only making people feel as if their chests were being torn apart.

The whole person was in a dim mess.

There was a cool piece on his face, and when he raised his hand to touch it, it turned out to be his own tears. Tears flowed down my face......

Wobbling and standing up. At this time, my mind was still groggy and I had to lean against the wall. When his gaze returned, the man raised his head and looked at the tall man in front of him, his eyes full of fear.

"Don't, don't kill me......"

Although his voice is still a little hoarse, his delicate voice betrays the young age of his master.

"I want to die, or I want to live!"

"Live, Live......"

The fear of death made the young man nod his head again and again.

"Is there a back door here? Take me there! ”

The young man who had just jumped over from the ghost gate with his feet dared to say a word, and hurriedly led him to the back door. Opening the back door and looking at the dark streets, Zhu Yifeng's brows furrowed again, and in the end, he still set his eyes on this tear-stained young man.

"Do you know how to get to the docks from here?"

The other party's obedience was completely unexpected, in fact, the young man was already frightened by the fear of death, and the fear of this person brought by the shadow of death made him choose to obey instead of resist.

Almost at the same time that Zhu Yifeng was escaping from the clubhouse, on the "Express" in the middle of the river, Shen Ming, who was standing on the back deck, stared through the binoculars at the dock, and on the side of the "Express", more than a dozen sailors were stuffing shells into the 32-pound caron gun, not solid bullets, but grenades filled with gunpowder.

"Really, do you really want to open fire?"

Li Ziyuan asked a little nervously. In fact, he also knew that firing a cannon was the last option. But what's even more worrying is that now the big guy is in the tiger's mouth, in case he can't escape...... That's a dead death.

"The purpose of the owner to let the cannon open must be to escape from the chaos, since the owner ordered the cannon to be fired, let's beat them to death!"

When he spoke, Shen Ming didn't even turn his head, what should he do? Now he also has no idea, the only thing he can pray for is that the owner can take advantage of the chaos to escape, and now, the only thing he can do is to open fire.

"But, now the owner, has he escaped......

Without waiting for Li Ziyuan to finish speaking, Shen Ming's words sank.

"I know, don't hit the guild hall, shoot around, or else, what do you say......"

"Hit there!"

Looking at a certain position at the dock, Li Ziyuan pointed his hand, almost half of the arms sold to the Taiping Army were unloaded there, and there were more than 2,000 barrels of gunpowder there.

"If you blow up those gunpowders, the more chaos there is, the more chances the owner will have to escape, and ......"

His eyes narrowed slightly, and a sneer flashed on his face.

"Since they don't want to give us silver, those goods, let's give them to him, and blow them up directly!"

"No, if thousands of barrels of gunpowder explode, what if it hurts the owner?"

Shaking his head, Shen Ming hurriedly said.

"No matter what, we have to keep the owner safe first!"

As he spoke, he looked at his pocket watch, and there were still two minutes to nine o'clock!

What about people?

After waiting for two bags of cigarettes, Zhao Lishan, who had not seen Zhu Yifeng come back, walked out of the box and commanded his subordinates.

"Go and see, why isn't that Zhu Tongyi ......?"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a scream from the backyard.

"Dead man, dead man!"

Zhao Lishan, who ran to the backyard in the scream, took advantage of the light, and when he saw the corpse on the ground clearly, the drunkenness suddenly receded by five or six points, and he shouted repeatedly.

"Quick, that kid is going to escape, go to the docks, don't let that kid escape......"

It doesn't matter if the surnamed Zhu escapes, the most important thing is the silver, if he takes the silver with him, the East King will be on his side at that time......

Zhao Lishan, who was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, shouted while rushing towards the outside of the hall, and the inside and outside of the hall suddenly became lively.

It's nine o'clock!

When the hour hand of the pocket watch pointed to nine o'clock, hiding in the alley and watching the Taiping soldiers patrolling back and forth on the road, Zhu Yifeng's eyes couldn't stop looking in the direction of the dock, and even his ears were pricked up.

"Why don't you fire yet?"

On that note, Zhu Yifeng did not write anything else, but asked them to open fire, fire at nine o'clock, and then take advantage of the chaos to escape back to the ship.

It is true that people die for money, and birds die for food, but it is always unwise to accompany their lives for money, not to mention, they have now received two million taels, which is enough to do a lot of big things! Therefore, the most important thing now is to escape from this hellish place.

Just when he was anxiously waiting for the shelling, suddenly, the sound of artillery faintly coming from the dock made Zhu Yifeng's heart tighten, and he pulled the young man who followed him hard.

"Lie down!"

"Wang Lvshuai, you bring people over, you must not let the foreign ship escape......"

Just when Zhao Lishan shouted and gave an order, the sound of cannons in the air made him stunned, and just as he was stunned, there was a loud noise in the distance,

"Boom ......"

Six shells weighing 32 pounds exploded, instantly destroying nearby houses, and the fragments of steel mixed with countless broken bricks and tiles flew out to the surroundings and flew towards a group of Taiping officers and soldiers who were patrolling, and suddenly showed a scene of flesh and blood.

"Fire!"

Following the boatswain's order, a ball of cannon flames suddenly surged up on the port side of the "Express", and the fiery red flames tore through the darkness and brightened the river......

When the first round of explosions came, and even before the smell of gunpowder smoke was blown by the wind, Zhu Yifeng stood up violently and ran into the street. And the frightened young man ran after him......
