The Battle of the Kingdoms Chapter 62 The Night Attack of the Merchant Ships (Ask for Collection, Ask for Red Tickets)
Several merchant ships in the port of Tangshan City of Yanguo slowly sailed out of the port, driving leisurely on the calm sea, everyone rested on the deck, and the sea breeze blew slowly, diluting the unique fishy smell of the upper and lower cabins.
The businessmen are talking in twos and threes, hoping to find new business opportunities from the mouths of their peers, now it is a good era of war and business, if you can get prohibited smuggled goods, the profits can reach ten times or even dozens of times in the past, especially the route of running Qi, Jin, Qin, Qi as a gathering place for businessmen in the world, rich in materials, convenient transportation, in the early years in this business people have many doors, wide contacts, extremely sought-after goods can also be obtained several times, which often means that dozens of times the money will be put into the pocket, Why is it said that it is about to be put into the pocket, because the goods have to be transported to the place to sell the price, the three kingdoms of Qi, Jin and Qin are thousands of mountains and rivers apart, ordinary people go back and forth in the three countries, it will take several months, not to mention the safe delivery of goods to the location, now that the Qin and Jin countries are at war, the prices of goods related to the war are rising sharply, the price of some common commodities on the bright side has quadrupled, and there are some disgraceful goods, it is not too much to say that the price is sky-high, so the risk of long-distance transportation is greatly increased, and the merchants have to form an alliance, Form a cooperative force to deter some small crumbs when transporting along the way, and avoid unnecessary trouble. Fortunately, the big countries that passed through still maintained the demeanor of a big country, and did not make too many difficulties for the merchants, but only increased the tariffs, and that's all, the merchants did not feel sorry for this tariff, they all paid the money very readily, and paid these protection fees, at least in the territory of the big country, they would not be robbed openly, and they would not be empty of people and money.
Between the conversations, these scattered businessmen from time to time with envious eyes, look at the nearby Bai merchant ship, that is called a real merchant, that ship is called a real merchant ship, in contrast, the ship he is now sitting on, is really shabby and embarrassed, the age of the ship is almost six years, the board is full of dilapidated and dilapidated scenes, the stench of the cabin is naturally needless to say, I don't know where the corner will be secretly seeped water, in case the ship sinks halfway through, it will be miserable, not to mention whether people can live, If the full bag of goods sinks into the sea, all the belongings will be gone, and the person will not have to find a place to jump into the sea, and he will go down with the goods directly.
Bai's merchant ship is a new ship of the year, six zhang longer than ordinary merchant ships, the ship can run horses, the goods are on the lower floor, all people live on the upper floor, the air is fresh, and you can see the sun. The huge flag with "White" written in gold lettering alone would have terrified all pirates.
Ordinary merchant ships are fortunate enough to go to sea with Bai's merchant ships, which is really stained, and the journey must be calm and smooth sailing.
During the day, most of the merchants chatted on the deck, but sometimes they would be uneasy, and when they went down to look at the packed goods, the crew in charge of guarding the warehouse looked unhappy, feeling that these merchants were suspecting him of self-theft, and always urged the merchants to be careful, and leave quickly after reading it, and not to get in the way here.
Soon, the sun slowly sets over the sea level, dyeing the entire sea a magnificent red. The moon and stars dot the night sky, and there is nothing but waves and the breeze.
Wu Yong found that he liked the night more and more, and he felt extra free and a little excited at night. The daytime sun shining on his body often makes him feel inexplicably anxious, only the moonlight makes him feel peaceful, especially after he glimpses the mystery of perception, so that he discovers the unique beauty of the night, everything has a kind of subtle meaning, but also with a little temptation, like a brushed copper mirror, the edges of the reflected things are hazy halo.
"Huh?" Wu Yong discovered the anomaly on the surface of the sea, and under the moonlight, there were three black things secretly approaching with the help of the ups and downs of the waves.
"Pirates?" Wu Yong thought to himself. What kind of pirate has the courage to rob three merchant ships of the same kind, including Bai's merchant ships, three small boats can only hold more than 20 people, and attacking a merchant ship alone seems to be weak in manpower, not to mention that three merchant ships that take care of each other are simply hitting stones with eggs.
When he saw these three small ships heading directly towards the Bai merchant ship, Wu Yong understood the meaning of the conspiracy, this was by no means an ordinary pirate. The goal is clear, the traces are hidden, and there must be a plan. Wu Yong's night vision beyond ordinary people saw the three small boats very clearly, seven people in each boat, taking advantage of the dark night to slowly approach the Bai merchant ship, and twenty-one people swam on the big ship as quickly as geckos with the help of tools.
Since Wu Yong's resentful spirit appeared last time, in addition to the night perception ability has been greatly improved, the force value has also skyrocketed, he jumped directly off the merchant ship, and sped on the water, without attracting anyone's attention, and also came to the Bai merchant ship.
As for Wu Daoxuan, he should be resting in the cabin at this moment, such an invincible peerless master, actually... Seasickness. Fortunately, Wu Yong didn't know about Wu Daoxuan and Yan Guotianyu Army, otherwise he couldn't imagine how Wu Daoxuan spent that half a year.
As soon as he got on the ship, Wu Yong smelled a heavy smell of blood, several sentries patrolling the deck had already been killed, and these sneak attackers were extremely professional and ruthless, without causing any noise. Wu Yong followed the trail of the corpse behind the sneak attacker, and at night, Wu Yong believed that except for a master like Wu Daoxuan, who was too different in realm, ordinary people would never be able to find their own traces.
Wu Yong also asked Wu Daoxuan curiously, what is the current level of his combat strength. Wu Daoxuan pondered for a moment and said, "If you are in the state of a normal person, at best, you are a top-grade master, and you will definitely not be able to enter the third order. ”
Wu Yong asked with a dark face: "What about the abnormal situation?" ”
Wu Daoxuan said: "I can't be sure. However, if it is at night, you may be able to touch the threshold of the human ladder even in a normal state. It can be seen that Wu Daoxuan also has a very high opinion of Wu Yong at night.
These twenty-one people went on a killing spree as soon as they got on the ship, but they were still able to do it quietly, and they were definitely professional killers who were good at it. Wu Yong followed them and sneaked into the cabin of the merchant ship, and suddenly there was a violent vibration in front of him, and the master of the ship finally discovered the infiltrator. The two sides immediately launched a fierce fight, the infiltrators no longer hid their figures, occupied the favorable terrain of the cabin and brutally shot the people in the cabin, the hidden arrows worn by this group of infiltrators shot extremely fast, powerful, and could shoot directly through the wooden plank, and some of the helpers who wanted to come out to support were killed directly by the hidden arrows that penetrated the wall. The masters who can detect the infiltrators in advance and those who can not be injured by the hidden arrows are also pressed by the locust-like hidden arrows for a while, and some of them can't raise their heads.
