Chapter 34: Black Eats Black
The boatman was suspicious, and slowly walked to the gray-robed man with his back on his back.
Before he could threaten him, the gray-robed man's hand was already on the back of his neck.
The swaying boats, the roaring wind and waves, the seeming sparkling waves, the boatman fell silently.
The gesture was like that of a child falling into the arms of an elder, and the movements were gentle and gentle.
Before the old woman realized what was happening, the smell of blood was already wafting through the cabin.
The gray-robed man raised his hand again, and the boatman's head had been cut off—Bai Ling didn't even see what he had done, but he pulled out a piece of oilcloth and looked at the old woman.
The old woman came back to her senses and covered her grandson's eyes in a panic.
Then the bloody head was lifted, and the severed neck was still spurting blood, and the gray-robed man grabbed the boatman's hair and threw it out of the cabin like a damp cloth, until the blood at the end of the severed neck was slightly drained, and then he wrapped the head in an oilcloth and wrapped it around his arm.
The gray-robed man looked at his companion and whispered, but speaking a language that was unfamiliar to Bai.
The six gray-robed men moved in response, quickly leaving their seats, and exiting their cabins through the curtains at the front and rear of the ship, and in a few moments there was a brief argument from the other two ships, followed by screams, and then a few dull drownings.
All was silent again.
Soon, the ship lifted anchor again and headed for the opposite shore of the Jian'an River.
"Excuse me." The gray-robed man looked at Mu Cheng, "Help throw this corpse out, it doesn't smell good." ”
Only then did Bai Ling realize that the sound of falling into the water that he had just heard was probably also the sound of abandoning corpses.
Li Yiru was just about to lean over to help, when he felt that his shoulder was suddenly pressed against something, he raised his eyes, and saw that the gray-robed man was holding a bloody scimitar against his shoulder, and the tip of the knife had pierced Li Yiru's coat, and he hurriedly retreated.
"Don't move." The gray-robed man said politely, "If you accidentally fall into the water, it's not good." ”
The gray-robed man put away his knife and looked at Mu Cheng, "Please." ”
Mu Cheng got up in silence, grabbed the shoulders of the headless boatman in the shaking cabin, and slowly dragged him out.
"Wait!" Bai Ling also stood up, and she leaned over and groped around the boatman's body.
Soon, Bai Ling returned to their rightful owners what the boatman had stolen from the old woman and the child, and she searched for a while while with her brows, but found nothing but the boatman's own purse.
"That's it...... I'll help you too. As he spoke, Bai Ling picked up the boatman's feet and threw the corpse out with Mu Cheng.
The gray-robed man did not hinder him.
I don't know how long it took, but the long journey across the river finally ended with a low thud - it was shore.
The passengers of the other two boats fled out of the cabin, and the sound of chaotic footsteps faded away.
The old woman watched from the mouth of the boat as those people disappeared in the night, and although she wanted to get up, her limbs stiffened with fright, and she did not dare to move at this time.
Also unmoved were the three of Bai Ling.
They watched the gray-robed man's every move, waiting without saying a word for his next move.
"Looks like it's all over." The gray-robed man turned his head to look at Li Yiru, "Let's go out." ”
The gray-robed man stood up as he spoke, patted his sleeve and walked out of the cabin.
It was only then that the old man left the place without looking back, holding his grandson. Bai Ling also followed Li Yiru and Mu Cheng to the shore, looking at the back of the old woman leaving, she sighed - tonight's accommodation is in vain.
The Grey-robed man handed the head on his arm to the other companions, and they whispered a few words to each other again.
"Have you heard of this?" Bai Ling asked softly.
Mu Cheng and Li Yiru both shook their heads.
Soon, the gray-robed men stopped talking, and everyone turned around and looked at the three of Bai Ling with expressionless faces.
"So ......"
The gray-robed man stretched out his hand from under his cloak, quickly took off his blood-stained coat, and threw it into the river in the distance—under the gray robe, he was still dressed in a gray robe.
He looked at Li Yiru.
His hood had been taken off at this time, and this man had short hair, but his hair color was not like that of the Zhou people—in the moonlight, Bai Ling saw that his red hair was like a flame, and it looked very fluffy.
The hairs had been covered under the hat for so long, and he had grown a lot of static electricity, and his fingers were inserted into the fluffy short hair, and he pulled them back haphazardly, and a few slight sparks crackled.
"It's time to say goodbye." He laughed.
Bai Ling and the others were all stunned, almost instinctively touching their weapons, bowing down and ready to flee at any time, the gray-robed man was stunned for a moment, seemed to realize the ambiguity in his words, and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, there is no other meaning, I just want to say, it seems that it is time to send a few people here to get back on the road......"
Mu Cheng's face darkened.
"Don't talk this nonsense, what are you?" Li Yiru's hand was hidden in his sleeve, forcibly suppressing the fear in his heart, "Why did you say something like that when you were on the boat just now." ”
"Of course it's for your own good, little master."
The gray-robed man put his hat back on, and he pulled two strings from his waist, one in his mouth and the other casually around his arm, tightening the loose sleeves at the end of his cloak to his arm.
The wind of hunting blows on his body, vaguely outlining a slender outline.
For a moment, Bai Ling couldn't see where his bend was hidden.
Li Yiru frowned, "You call me...... What the? ”
The gray-robed man continued, "If you die at our hands tonight, wouldn't the Li family of Chuanning want to hunt us down to the ends of the earth...... We never do loss-making business. ”
"Chuan Ning—" Li Yiru took a deep breath, "Do you know who I am?" ”
"Of course, the reward for catching you back is very high......" The gray-robed man shrugged his shoulders with a smile and glanced at Li Yiru's side again, "And buy one get one free, it's a very cost-effective ......"
Mu Cheng and Bai Ling were alert at the same time.
"But...... We have more important things to do tonight, so I won't embarrass you......" The gray-robed man said with a smile, to some extent, it was not necessary to startle the prey, but it was obviously more interesting.
"You're going to Zhuozhou, aren't you?" The gray-robed man said softly.
"So what?" Li Yiru hid behind Mu Cheng, "I won't go back with you!" ”
"It's okay, unless you can get a higher price than your family, we are businessmen, and we won't have trouble with money." The gray-robed man laughed again, "In short, please be careful along the way and take good care of yourself...... See you in Zhuozhou. ”
His hand shook casually in the air and turned around, looking as if he was about to leave.
"Wait!" Mu Cheng sighed, "Your Excellency has not declared your name yet. ”
Name...... Deer hunters, we are deer hunters," the gray-robed man chuckled, then looked back slightly, "Again." ”
