Sudden battles happen faster and end faster.

Those Salt Gang disciples who climbed onto the boat didn't even block a single charge, and they completely received the lunch box.

The disciples of the Salt Gang below, who had not yet climbed up, were startled when they saw this scene, and immediately jumped back into the boat, turned the bow of the boat and ran back.

"Idea,."

Everyone is not stupid, knowing that they can't beat it, they just talk about it.

Li Biao shouted: "Brothers, greet them with bows and crossbows." ”

As soon as Li Biao's words fell, the sound of "whoosh" bows and arrows rang out instantly, and one by one sharp arrows shot at the Salt Gang disciples on the boat.

Bursts of screams and scolding followed.

The Salt Gang disciples on the boat almost all became live targets at such a close distance, and they were shot by crossbow arrows one after another.

There are also half clever ones, jumping into the water to escape.

In the blink of an eye, nearly half of the Salt Gang's manpower was lost, leaving the leader in the back stunned.

The group of people he brought out were the most fierce men in the gang, and the officers and men on the official ships they fought were all defeated and retreated, but now they were good, but they were slaughtered like chickens and dogs.

Where did these people run out of the god-killing gods? It's just a bunch of evil stars.

The group of people he brought with him was not enough to kill.

With the participation of these people, tonight's operation is doomed to failure, but the details have been revealed, which will inevitably bring trouble to the Salt Gang.

But if you continue to entangle, it is meaningless, you are not someone's opponent at all, and you can only be killed in the end.

It was originally a matter of nine out of ten, but I didn't expect to suddenly kill Cheng Cheng and bite the gold, and I was caught off guard.

The top priority is to save your life first, and as for the rest, let's wait until you survive.

Thinking of this, the order to retreat was directly given.

"Brothers, the idea is prickly, the wind is tight, and the wind is tight."

After saying that, he ordered his subordinates, turned the bow of the ship and ran.

On another big boat, the disciples of the Salt Gang who were fighting, after hearing the order, hurriedly got rid of their opponents, jumped back into the small boat, and fled for their lives.

Seeing this scene, Jia Cong put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand.

The Salt Gang is a big gang in Jiangnan, although it is a rabble, but there are a large number of people, and they are entangled in it, although they are not afraid, but they are also troublesome.

Only by killing all these people can the secret be kept for the time being.

"Since you have already offended people, you don't need to keep your hands, Li Biao, Wangcai, the two of you are responsible for leading people to clean up the remnants, don't let them get away."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The two agreed, got into the boat, and chased them separately.

Jia Cong took the snig in Qingwen's hand, aimed at the leader of the medium-sized ship, and pulled the trigger.

Hearing a "bang" gunshot, the other party fell down in response.

"Hit, hit, master, why did you hit him on the leg, don't you want to live?"

Qingwen held the clairvoyant mirror and shouted while watching.

Originally, it was aimed at the chest, but it actually hit the thigh, but fortunately it didn't miss the target, otherwise it would be a shame.

The shaking of the hull of their own ship and the target adds too much uncertainty.

"Well, these boys are not used to keeping prisoners, they are all injured, it is impossible to cut off people's heads again, right?"

Jia Cong aimed at a sailor who was rowing again, carefully felt the shaking of the hull, and reluctantly pulled the trigger, and with a "bang", the target fell in response.

Qingwen shouted: "I hit the chest this time, master, let me also have two shots to enjoy it." ”

Jia Cong nodded, gave the snib to Qingwen, and said, "Pay attention to the shaking of the hull, you all take turns to shoot a few shots." ”

Qingwen took the sniver and aimed at it seriously for a while, and with a "bang", she actually hit her chest with a shot.

Jia Cong saw clearly through the clairvoyant mirror, and directly punched a big hole in the target's chest, and the blood instantly splashed the head and face of the person next to him.

The man screamed and plunged headlong into the canal.

Qingwen said excitedly: "Master, my marksmanship is good, right?" One shot hit, this shot is too enjoyable. ”

Jia Cong smiled: "Well, it's really good, I have the potential to be a sharpshooter, and I will practice more when I have nothing to do in the future." ”

Several men stood on the deck and took turns firing a few shots, knocking out all the sailors on the fastest boat.

Such a big movement still woke up Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun, Xichun, and others.

Several people followed the mandarin duck to the deck, and when they saw Jia Cong, they walked over.

Lin Daiyu said with a worried face: "Brother Cong, what the hell is going on?" Why did you fight again? Are you alright? ”

Jia Cong greeted him with a smile, held Lin Daiyu's little hand, and said with a smile: "I'm still waking you up, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's the people of the Salt Gang who are evil here, and they happened to be bumped into by us."

These people still want to block our trip, in order not to delay time, rush back to Yangzhou as soon as possible, and visit Uncle Lin, we can only take action against them, which can be regarded as doing the right thing for heaven. ”

Lin Daiyu was relieved when she heard this, nodded and said, "Well, as long as it's okay, I really scared me when I heard the movement just now." ”

Jia Cong said: "Don't worry, with me, it will be fine." ”

Shi Xiangyun stared and looked around, he didn't look scared at all, and said with a smile: "The third brother is too powerful, and it is reassuring to follow the third brother out, it is interesting, fun, and safe." ”

Xichun nodded his little head and said, "Well, what Sister Yun said is so right, my brother is the most powerful." ”

Looking at these two little fan girls, Jia Cong laughed happily.

Lin Daiyu glanced at the three of them, and said angrily: "Okay, you two don't praise him anymore, if you praise him again, Brother Cong's tail will be cocked." ”

Xichun grinned and said, "My brother is not a snake spirit, how can he have a tail?" Sister Lin said blindly. ”

When the people who listened to the story yesterday heard this, they all giggled.

Lin Daiyu looked at everyone, her face was inexplicable, what's so funny about this?

Seeing her puzzled look, Jia Cong hurriedly explained: "When I went back from you yesterday, Yun Yatou and the four girls went to me to listen to the story, so they told them a story about "The Legend of the White Snake". ”

When Lin Daiyu heard this, she looked at Jia Cong with a resentful face, and said with a "hum": "Brother Cong, you don't call your sister when you tell stories, it's so sad, did you forget Sister Lin when you have Sister Yun?" ”

Jia Cong smiled: "You are asleep, where can I disturb your rest again, don't worry, you will always be the first in my heart, and I will never forget you." ”

When Lin Daiyu heard this, her little face was a little shy, but her heart was sweet.

This is my brother Cong, don't any of you want to snatch it away, thinking of this, I grabbed Jia Cong's hand tightly, but my mouth was unforgiving.

"Hmph, it's going to be a deception with clever words, I don't care, you have to tell me the story of "The Legend of the White Snake" again."

Jia Cong said: "No problem, when it is cleaned up, I will tell you, I will not disappoint you." ”

Seeing Jia Cong's good attitude, Lin Daiyu's little face showed a smile.

"Brother Cong, I want you to tell me one more story, no problem, right?"

Can you have a problem telling a story to your daughter-in-law?

That's no problem.

"Okay, Sister Lin has the final say, and my brother will listen to you."

Xichun giggled happily on the side, now there is a story to hear, and if you listen to the story in the future, you will find Sister Lin.

Jia Cong glanced at everyone and said: "Now that the night is heavy and the cold is thick, it is easy to catch a cold, you better go back and rest, this gang of thieves has been defeated by us, our manpower is chasing and suppressing, at most you can start the boat in a few hours, you can rest assured." ”

Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Well, Brother Cong, then let's go back and rest, and you should rest early when you're done." ”

Everyone saw that there was nothing to do, and they were indeed safe, so they all went back to rest with confidence.

Half an hour later, Li Biao and Wangcai came back to restore their lives.

"Returning to the country's grandfather, the bandits that can be seen have all been exterminated, and now it is too dark, and it is estimated that there will be fish that have slipped through the net. The leader was also caught and briefly interrogated.

Their purpose this time was to rob the ship's official silver, and if we didn't show up, they would have succeeded. ”

Jia Cong nodded, he finally didn't kill them all, and left a prisoner.

The people of the Salt Gang dare to rob the official silver, which is no different from rebellion, it is really bold.

These people know the consequences and dare to act, and it is estimated that they already have a perfect plan, either they have an internal response, or they just want to kill people and kill their mouths, and they have become headless.

It's just that what I never expected was that I accidentally bumped into myself and stirred up this matter.

Not only did the success fail, but also revealed the bottom line.

If this is known to the higher-ups of the Salt Gang, I don't know how they will react?

This matter, whether it is big or not, whether it is small or not, the behavior of the Salt Gang has undoubtedly rebelled, and the emperor should be informed, as for how to deal with the Salt Gang, it is up to the emperor to decide.

"The official ship over there, there has been no movement, have you gone up to see it, are there any living people on it? Is the official bank still there? ”

Wang Cai said: "If you return to the country, we have already gone up to check, most of the officers and soldiers on the ship are dead and wounded, the general who pressed the ship is not dead, but he is injured, and we are not good to check the official silver, but we have brought the general here, and the grandfather can ask him in person." ”

Jia Cong said: "Bring him up, you can feel at ease by asking, since we have been involved, then there can be no half-mile difference, the people of the Salt Gang dare to hijack the ship, they must have something to rely on."

We must not be negligent and let others take advantage of the loophole, so as not to be able to eat mutton, but to cause a commotion. ”

"Got it, Grandpa Guo. In addition, these people also hijacked a ship, a nun, and her apprentice, with a group of maids and women to the capital, happened to be in this section of the road, and were hijacked.

The old nun knew that Grandpa Guo had saved them, and she wanted to come to thank Grandpa Guo in person, and she had already followed, do you want to see Grandpa Guo? ”

Jia Cong said: "Since everyone is here, let's meet them and bring them up." ”

Wangcai nodded, turned around and went down.

After a while, Wangcai came up with three people.

A man in armor, in his thirties, was wounded in the arm and stained with blood, and he looked like he had just experienced a great battle.

The other is an old nun, fifty or sixty years old, looking kind, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, followed by a twenty-eight girl, with outstanding appearance, no worse than Qingwen.

The general stepped forward and bowed: "The last general, Zhang Kangnian, meet Ning Guogong, thank Ning Guogong for coming to the rescue, otherwise, not only will the tax and silver not be saved, but we will not be spared." ”

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "General Zhang doesn't need to be polite, since he was met by his father, he naturally can't stand by and watch, what about the casualties on your ship?" Is the tax money safe? ”

Zhang Kangnian said: "Back to Ning Guogong, the tax and silver are fine, but most of the brothers on the ship are dead and wounded, and there are less than 100 people. ”

Jia Cong nodded and said: "The people sent by the Salt Gang this time have all been wiped out, but this night is too dark, it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net, you pack up and set off quickly, even if the Salt Gang gets the news, it is estimated that they will not dare to make any more moves." ”

Zhang Kangnian arched his hand and said: "Ning Guogong, don't thank you for your great kindness, then the general will leave first." ”

Jia Cong said: "General Zhang had a good journey. ”

Seeing Zhang Kangnian's back disappear, Jia Cong retracted his gaze and looked at the old nun.

The old nun clasped her hands together, bowed and said, "Amitabha, the poor nun and the little apprentice Miaoyu worship Xie Ning Guogong's life-saving grace." ”

Miaoyu?

Jia Cong was slightly stunned when she heard this, this turned out to be Miaoyu and her master, this is too coincidental, right?

I really can't imagine that I will meet Miaoyu in this way.

Miao Yu was originally a young lady from an official eunuch family, frail and sick since childhood, and the fortune teller said that only a monk could save his life, so he went to the Panxiang Temple in Xuanshan Mountain, where he practiced on behalf of her.

Later, because he was too good-looking, he was coveted by the local magnates, and in desperation, he went to Shenjing City with his master to avoid trouble.

glanced at Miaoyu carefully, and there was indeed a trace of clarity in her demeanor.

reminds me of the song "The World Is Intolerable" in the original "Dream of Red Mansions":

The temperament is as beautiful as an orchid, the talent is more than the fairy, and the natural loneliness is rare.

You are a meat-eater, and you are disgusted with Qiluo, but you don't know that people who are too high are more jealous, and they are the same as those who live a clean world.

It's a pity that the people of the Green Lantern Ancient Palace will be old and lonely, and the red and pink Zhulou will be in spring.

In the end, it is still dirty and unwilling. It's like, the flawless white jade is trapped in the mud, so why bother, the prince and grandson sigh for nothing!

Miaoyu's ending is also a tragedy.

Jia Jiamo fell behind and was stunned and taken away by the gangsters, so there is no need to say much about the ending.

is in response to the sentence: If you want to be clean, you must be clean, the clouds and the sky may not be empty, and the poor gold and jade will eventually fall into the mud.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong sighed, it was really a shame.

"Mrs. Shi doesn't need to be polite, my shot this time is also a coincidence, it can be regarded as a coincidence, if you really want to talk about it, it can be regarded as the fate between us.

I heard that Mrs. Shi is going to the capital, if you have any trouble or needs, you can go to Ning Guofu for help, as long as you report my name, someone will naturally help you. ”

The old nun said, "So, thank you Ning Guogong." ”
