'Whoo' the night breeze blows.

While the Flying Island Lord continued to walk towards the distant island.

As time passes.

At night, the distant islands in the border waters of the South Seas are not as brightly lit as other islands, and the noisy tavern streets are red light districts.

On the contrary, at about nine o'clock in the night, if you look from the sky, the whole island is plunged into a gloomy, 'foggy', cloud-covered, with the occasional lights on the island, which seems even more eerie and silent.

But it is also the brightest place on the island.

Outside the Lord's Mansion on the island of Toshima.

There are twelve lanterns hanging here, as if to dispel the darkness around them, and the dark clouds floating in the air.

"It's foggy again today.."

At this time.

The four guards who were on duty looked at the clouds in the sky above their heads, looked at each other and shook their heads, as if they were used to the bad weather in their homes, and suddenly they didn't care about the dark clouds and the upcoming thunderstorm.

Perhaps it is also because of the frequent rain on the island, and the low pressure of the clouds, which makes the distant island a little 'dark and weird' when viewed from the sky. ’

In addition, it also rains a lot, and most of the red light districts on the bright surface have been moved underground.

The soft soil on the island makes it easy to expand the 'underground market', and it is resilient, so it is indeed a good choice to build drainage canals.

But on the bright side, the golden time of the distant island is only a little more than nine o'clock, and it seems quiet, and it is inevitable that it will be a little 'dilapidated'.

"The last time it rained heavily seemed like three days ago, right?" Another guard smelled the smell of concrete, which was more humid in the air than during the day, and was also talking about the strange weather on the island, "A light rain in three days, a heavy rain in ten days... It's going to go down.,It's a few days.,It seems that we're going to be on duty in the rain these days.. Those people who didn't mention the sea probably scolded us for the weather on the far island."

"The shipwrights on the island are running out." The person next to him laughed, and suddenly shook his head, "No... No, it should be scared away! Rain and thunder such a big wind and waves, every time the boat will capsize and die, I don't know if anyone has seen the weather this time and came back early.. This cloudy weather has lasted for a hundred years... Originally, our island was also very prosperous.."

"yes.." The man sighed and shook his head, but then refuted the man's previous words, "Not necessarily! What captain is not a master of the ship that can walk in the waters of the far islands now? Not necessarily leaving us."

The guards chatted casually, but it was fine, and when they got here, they changed the topic again and began to talk about the masters on the island.

The right to pass the time, the work of the island owner's mansion is so idle.

Every day and every month, you don't have to work hard, just stand guard, and the income is not inferior to those ships that take risks and often go to sea.

But it was also when they were chatting, talking about the masters, and talking about which tavern had a good beauty.

With the sound of 'clicking' footsteps rang out across the street.

The innkeeper was trotting excitedly, holding a piece of paper similar to an envelope, and came to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion.

And he had already ordered someone to send a message to inform the flying island master, and now he sent to find the distant island master in person, his brother-in-law, this credit is all his!

And he has already thought of a plan on the way, although it is a little slow to come in person now, but it is convenient that the credit will not be robbed, the sincerity is enough, and the time is early, which will not affect the plan of the meeting.

It's a foolproof chance to pat yourself on the back!

"Why is Shopkeeper Wu here?"

When the four guards saw the island owner's brother-in-law coming, they also hurriedly saluted, and their words stopped instantly.

"I have something important to report to the owner!" When the shopkeeper Wu saw everyone, he also straightened his expression, took out a majestic look, and walked to the house with his feet raised.

When the four guards saw it, they didn't stop it, but saluted and waited until Shopkeeper Wu walked into the mansion, and then began to talk about other things, everything was as usual, they were used to seeing Shopkeeper Wu in and out of the mansion.

But the shopkeeper Wu went all the way to the main mansion, but the owner of the island didn't see it, but he met a middle-aged woman who was walking with the help of the maid around the corner.

The middle-aged woman with a luxurious appearance, when she saw the anxious appearance of the shopkeeper Wu, was different from the respect of the guard in front of the door, but opened her mouth to reproach: "What do you look like in a panic?" ”

"I've seen my sister .." Shopkeeper Wu hurriedly saluted, didn't defend anything, and directly handed over the letter in his hand, "Where is my brother-in-law?" I've met the pioneers of the council's bounty... They're staying at our inn right now."

"Really?" The woman took the letter and gave it back to the shopkeeper Wu, "You go to your brother-in-law, he seems to be dealing with some things... I'm not going to be a woman alone."

The woman said, and lowered her voice again: "This is a good thing, if you can do it well, I also have a reason to talk to your brother-in-law, it is better to let you have a position in the mansion than to run around outside every day." ”

"Okay.." Shopkeeper Wu nodded, he thought like this, and arranged it like this.

So, he grinned and took the letter, and without delay, raised his feet again and walked on.

When they came to the side hall that the woman said.

He looked inside again, under the light of the lamp, people came and went, a middle-aged strong man was eating in the hall, and there were a few booklets next to him, it was estimated that the strong man was dealing with things while eating.

"The Far Island Lord.." Shopkeeper Wu saluted and walked to the door.

"You're here." The middle-aged strong man, that is, the owner of the distant island, didn't seem to be very happy to see the shopkeeper Wu, but he read that it was his wife's younger brother and brother-in-law, so he still said hello and came over to eat together.

At the same time, the owner of the distant island moved these 'pamphlets with place markings', and it seemed that they were no longer approved.

The subordinate next to him saw that the shopkeeper Wu was coming, and was invited in by the owner of the distant island, and he also prepared a pair of chopsticks and dishes with a very good eye, and the stool of vermilion lacquered wood was placed in front of the table.

But Shopkeeper Wu didn't sit down directly, but put the letter in his hand in front of the island lord and said, "The island owner.. I saw the men on the Pioneer today."

'Bang' The owner of the distant island stopped his chopsticks and looked at the shopkeeper Wu with a scrutinizing gaze.

The subordinates next to him saw that the two of them had something important, and they also retreated one after another.

"Are you sure you're a pioneer?"

After the people left, the lord of the far island continued: "This is not a joke. ”

"I'm sure!" Shopkeeper Wu looked at him with certainty, and almost patted his chest and promised, "They came to the inn tonight to settle down, just like the news from the council, there are six people in total, five men and one woman, and they look exactly the same."

"It should be them.." The owner of the distant island thought for a while, looked at the correspondence, and then looked at the appearance of the shopkeeper Wu's swearing, as if after determining that the shopkeeper Wu should not joke about this matter, he asked again,

"Did you do anything with the food? Generally, when the sailors come to a strange place, they will carry a silver needle to test for poison, so as not to expose anything, so that they can be guarded or run away. ”

Speaking of this, the distant island lord suddenly asked again: "Have you notified the flying island owner?" In case they escape from the sea, Lord Toshima may be able to intercept them, but it is better for us to take them, these are all merits."

"The owner of the island can rest assured.." Shopkeeper Wu smiled, "I have already notified the Flying Island Master. And I didn't eat anything in the meal, I watched them stay in my inn."

"That's good.." The lord of the distant island nodded, as if he had eaten Jiang Cang by himself.

But then, when he thought of the strength of the pioneers, he found that the ability of the others seemed to be insufficient, even if he learned about Jiang Cang's itinerary?

"A captain who can rival the Lord of Toshima.." The Lord of the Far Island sighed, "One witch, four congenitals. Although we are in the dark, they are in the light, but it is also a little tricky."

"We can try to lure the snake out of the hole." Shopkeeper Wu seemed to have a plan, and after tasting the clear soup on the table, he also knew that his brother-in-law's innate perfection was not the opponent of the pioneer.

"What can you do?" The lord of the distant island became interested and looked at his brother-in-law, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." We are all family, and there are no outsiders in the house. Even if you're wrong, don't worry. ”

"Owner.." Shopkeeper Wu saw that the owner of the distant island seemed to be because of the 'discovery of the pioneer' today, and he was impressed with himself, not as disgusted as before, but he was happy in his heart and told the story,

"I've thought of this plan all the way."

Shopkeeper Wu first pointed to the direction of the inn, "It happens to be a stormy night today, so we might as well arrange people to be on guard around the inn first, all equipped with bows and crossbows, 'Spirit Breaking Arrows', aimed at the direction of the inn, so..."

"Nope." The owner of the far island shook his head without thinking about it, "It's also so dark, and it will rain again in a while, and we don't know which house they are in the courtyard yet." Waiting for a hundred crossbows to break the spirit arrows in unison, although it can kill them, even the real grandmaster... But in case they made a mistake and entered the empty house, they were on guard. That way, when they get out of the house, it's still .."

The lord of the distant island said, wanting to say that when Jiang Cang and them came out, he and the others might not be able to fight.

If they want to run, they can't keep them.

In the end, when the flying island lord comes, he will inevitably be blamed by the council, and it is likely that the island owner's position will not be guaranteed.

Speaking of which, this strategy is a bit too risky, whether it is his own safety or his official position, it is a troublesome matter.

It's just that you have to wait for the flying island lord to come over, with the temper of the flying island owner.

The owner of the far island knows that if he doesn't do anything at all, it is basically enough to choke under the buttocks.

And when the shopkeeper Wu heard that the owner of the distant island had misunderstood his meaning, he defended it again, and said more like luring the owner of the distant island to answer: "The owner of the island, we arrange archers is one of them." Second, the owner of the island can first send the dead to infiltrate the courtyard where they live and assassinate them. Whether it succeeds or not, it can be the best. But no matter what, when they are suddenly attacked, and they fight out of the house..."

"I'll order the archers around me to surprise and release their arrows." The lord of the distant island sighed and looked at the shopkeeper Wu, "They seem to have become live targets in the courtyard?" If you don't die, you have to be seriously injured .."

"Yes!" Shopkeeper Wu suddenly praised with his hands, his eyes showing admiration, "Brother-in-law is a good plan.."

..

Whoop—

At about one o'clock in the night, the sky that had been cloudy for several hours finally broke the dullness, and the rain fell on the eaves and roof tiles, 'crackling', fainting water splashes, and dotting stars.

And in an alley street outside the inn, on the eaves of the three floors.

Shopkeeper Wu was dressed in a lily robe, holding a grey cloth oil lamp, and followed the side of the lord of the distant island.

Behind him, there were twelve fierce guards, wrapped in black-clothed with oil-brushed swords, holding swords in their hands, without saying a word.

On the eaves near the surroundings, there were more than 100 black-clothed people with bows and crossbows, who seemed to merge with the night and rain, condescendingly, aiming in the direction of the courtyard in the inn.

As planned, the road ahead and back have been arranged, just waiting to deliver a killer blow to the pioneers!

"They're in the backyard.." Shopkeeper Wu pointed to the inn in the night rain in front of him, and whispered, mixed with rain, the sound could not be transmitted in front of him, and was covered by the sound of 'bang-la-la'.

"You go.." The lord of the distant island looked at the twelve dead soldiers beside him, four were born and eight were acquired, even if they couldn't kill Jiang Cang, they could lure them out.

If nothing else, whoever is assassinated while sleeping, is it possible that they will stay in the same place?

It was as if everything was ready, just waiting for the good news from his subordinates that the pioneers had been killed.

When the dead man heard the order of the island owner, he glanced at each other, climbed the bricks of the nearby houses silently in the heavy rain, and touched the backyard of the inn.

Wait for the heavy rain to come to the courtyard.

The twelve people looked at the eight houses without a trace of light, nodded one after another, held the weapons in their hands, and opened the doors in front of them, but in seven of them there was no one on the bed, and the quilts were folded well, and they did not move.

But as soon as one of them opened the door, he saw Jiang Cang and the others sitting in the room, as if waiting for him.

"Long time gone."

Jiang Cang put down the wine glass and took out the long knife that had already been placed on the table.

A flash of swords flashed.

Wu Hong and the others moved at the same time to kill several dead soldiers outside the hospital!

And a hundred meters away on the three-story eaves.

When the lord of the distant island heard the sound of weapons, the figure in the rain curtain in the courtyard swayed, and he smiled and shouted, "Release the arrow!" As if victory was in hand.

But with a burst of screams, the 'rustle' bow and arrow hit the empty and surrounding walls.

The lord of the far island stared at it, not only did he see that Wu Hong and the others avoided the bow and arrow and easily killed their own people, but also jumped to the surrounding eaves and killed the crossbowmen in the rain curtain.

And at the same time.

The owner of the distant island also saw that the water curtain near the inn turned into water snakes, penetrating the chest of the crossbowman on the eaves, and the blood flowers beat the rain, dyeing the water snakes bright red!

Even if there was a bow and arrow that was about to hit Wu Hong and the others who couldn't dodge, they were swept up by these blood-colored water snakes.

"A Legendary Witch?!" The owner of the distant island lost his voice, thought left and right, grabbed the shopkeeper Wu who was stunned in place next to him and left.

But Jiang Cang came out of the courtyard, ignoring the assassin crossbowmen on the eaves, but instead crossed a distance of 100 meters in one or two steps, and stood ten meters in front of the distant island lord in the alley under the three-story eaves.

Let the heavy rain fall, washing away the blood stains on the long knife.

"Good strategy.."

Jiang Cang turned around and looked at the two who were a little frightened and stopped and praised, if he didn't guess wrong, except for the innkeeper he saw at night, the remaining middle-aged strong man must be the owner of this island.

Then this person attacked and killed first, and then released arrows, the strategy was perfectly connected, and the battle was quite big.

If it weren't for the fact that he had divine sense to probe and woke up Wu Hong and the others in advance to wait, it would be really dangerous today.

"Captain Jiang's skills are also good.." The owner of the distant island looked at Jiang Cang, who was ten meters away in front of him, and listened to the screams coming from the rain curtain, seemingly with a steady face, but in fact, in addition to being afraid of the strength of Jiang Cang and the others, he was also surprised why Jiang Cang could kill it?

The plan he thought of was foolproof, not to mention that he could kill Jiang Cang, how could he not hurt Jiang Cang in the slightest?

Now, face-to-face parrying is in its heyday, but I have no bottom in my heart, only the fear of death.

"It's not something you say."

Jiang Cang didn't care what the owner of the distant island thought.

With the sound of 'rustling' rain, they had already cleaned up everyone around them and surrounded the far island lord and the shopkeeper Wu.

Suddenly, the owner of the distant island saw them, his heart sank, and he couldn't run, he really carried it today.

"What else does the island lord have planned?" Jiang Cang looked at the two who didn't dare to move.

There was also a corpse rolling down the tiles on the eaves not far from the 'pop', and the blood in his heart seemed to be mixed with the rain to flow here.

"You can't kill me!" When the distant island lord saw this scene, his mind was 'booming', and he instantly let go of the majesty of the island owner, and begged Jiang Cang for mercy as if threatening: "I am a member of the Nanzhou Council, and the captain of the legendary corruption is also my friend... Flying Island Master.. Right! ”

When the distant island lord said this, he seemed to grasp the nearest life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "The flying island lord is about to arrive... I.."

"Flying Island Master?"

Jiang Cang smiled, and in the frightened gaze of the shopkeeper Wu next to him, and between wanting to dodge with the distant island lord, the long knife instantly stabbed into the chest of the distant island lord, "The island owner's council? Legendary ships? Flying Island Owner? If I kill you now, what can they do? ”
