Section 2: Saving lives

The young man was very satisfied with his attitude and nodded: "The three of us master and apprentice are going to Yuezhou. Can you take us on a ride? ”

Although the content of the words was discussed, the young man did not have the slightest tone of negotiation, and spoke very directly, with an indifferent tone and obvious coldness.

Yuezhou, in the upper reaches of Chuzhou, the two places are the same route.

Zhang Mazi's waist became more bent. From the side, it looks like a strange humanoid prawn.

"Yes! Of course! ”

He echoed the chorus, then turned around and screamed again in a gong-like voice at the other traffickers who had not yet come to their senses.

"Immediately vacate the best room on the ship, and let these three masters have a good rest."

People who can do the business of licking blood with knives are not ordinary people.

From the first day of entering the human trafficking industry, Zhang Mazi learned the first lesson of how to recognize people and objects from his master, an old man with a face full of pockmarks.

In the words of Lao Mazi: "Only by polishing and polishing your tricks can you see more things that others can't see." ”

When the three strangers just appeared at the intersection, Zhang Mazi had already seen them.

At that time, he didn't think much about it, his mind was full of thoughts of killing people and destroying his mouthβ€”β€”β€”β€” no matter whether the comers were ordinary people, fast arresters, officers and soldiers, they all had to die.

When the three of them came closer, Zhang Mazi saw the left cuff of the middle-aged Confucian robe, embroidered with a special white emblem.

By the time the young man came over for questioning, the white insignia was clearer.

Zhang Mazi found that it was a special symbol that he knew.

Only monks of the Guiyuan Sect are qualified to wear such an emblem.

In this world, there are immortals.

Of course, not all monks are qualified to be called "immortals". But in the eyes of ordinary people, these strong people who can fly away from the sky are actually immortals.

The uncle of the eldest aunt of Zhang Mazi's third aunt's son runs a store. Every time he drank during the Chinese New Year, the old man always used an arrogant tone to talk about the fact that he had received a pill from an immortal.

It is said that the immortal wanted to buy a few deer skins in the old man's inn at that time, but he did not have any silver in his hand, so he left an elixir to offset it.

It was indeed a miraculous elixir. The old man took Dan, he is over 130 years old this year, and he still has nothing wrong with him. The strong body is inferior to even the young guys. Just last year, the old man married a new aunt and wife. The old thing with strong vitality is too strong in terms of physiological needs...... I heard that the new aunt's wife usually can't even close her legs, and she can only walk crookedly.

Half a year later, she was so tormented that she hanged herself.

O elixir!

O immortals!

Zhang Mazi once felt that his life was like this.

It is impossible to be an official.

At most, run a few more times on this line, earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, and then go home, marry a woman, and have a few more dolls.

For people who run the rivers and lakes, a lot of information can be exchanged.

Zhang Mazi knew the special emblems of several monk sects. Unfortunately, he had never met a so-called immortal.

Today's thing is simply an opportunity that fell from the sky.

Immortals don't care if you're a traitor or a law-abiding citizen. They worship the heavens and the earth, and among the "princes of heaven and earth", the only one who is not respected by the immortals is the "king".

It is not impossible for a monk to find a mortal to take a boat, although rare.

Zhang Mazi never thought of robbing the three monks who took the boat. Don't even think about that kind of thing. One of their fingers is thicker than your thigh.

He knew that immortals liked to treat everything as "fate". As long as these three monks are brought to Yuezhou and carefully waited along the way, when it is time for them to disembark, they will definitely benefit themselves.

The random thing left by the immortals is a treasure that is hard to buy.

It's like an old uncle who is more than 100 years old and has made his new aunt unbearable and can only hang himself.

On what basis?

Of course it's the elixir!

……

Through the gap between the window lattices, Yang Tianhong saw the beautiful girl in blue.

Yang Tianhong didn't know Guiyuanzong, let alone what these three words meant.

But he had absorbed all the memories of the original owner of this body, and he had some understanding of the basic framework information of the world he was in.

The top cabin is about six meters above the deck. Through the thick floor, the girl's crisp laughter could be heard from the bow of the boat below.

"Master, you see there are a lot of fish in the river!"

"Senior brother, your idea is good, taking a boat is indeed more flavorful than traveling with Edgeworth. Experiencing the life of a mortal once in a while is still helpful for spiritual practice. ”

"Huh! You're welcome. Senior sister, you should go out and walk more and see the world. ”

It set sail, and the hull of the ship shook slightly.

Although the part of the outside that his eyes saw was very limited, Yang Tianhong could hear that the master among the three, that is, the middle-aged man with a majestic expression, rarely spoke. At most, it is only to answer some questions of the girl, and then it is a slight "hmm" from the nostrils.

It can be felt that for girls, this master is very doting.

Young men are clearly admirers of beautiful maidens. The words are full of flattery, and the performance is too obvious.

"Senior sister, are you thirsty? I have clean spring water here. ”

"Senior sister, are you hungry? I have here the fruit I bought yesterday in the market town, and it is very fresh. ”

"Senior sister, are you sleepy? Would you like to go to your room and rest for a while? ”

Questions like these made Yang Tianhong's eyelids twitch when he heard it. Even if he came through and saw too many licking dog cocks crying and begging in front of the goddess, he felt goosebumps all over his body and his scalp was numb.

Several big men patrolled back and forth in the top cabin, and these villains with big shoulders and round waists were simply the most terrifying existence in the eyes of children. They held bright steel knives in their hands, and the children who were not suffocated in the top cabin didn't even dare to come out, they lowered their heads one after another, and honestly stayed in their respective positions, silent.

Almost half an hour later, a trafficker dressed in black hurriedly walked into the top cabin, approached a leading man, and whispered: "There are distinguished guests on board, and the boss has ordered to keep a good watch for these dolls, and then send them into the bottom compartment at night." Also, don't make any noise. In case of disturbing the distinguished guests below, you and I can't afford to bear it. ”

"Guest?"

The leader was very dissatisfied with this statement, and his face showed an evil and fierce look: "According to me, these three guys who take the boat are all fat sheep. Simply slaughtered with a knife, the men's minced meat and steamed buns, and the women's ...... at night"

Before he finished speaking, the black-clothed trafficker had already stretched out his hand and covered the big man's mouth, his face full of anger.

"If you don't want to die, shut up Lao Tzu as soon as possible."

The black-clothed trafficker obviously received Zhang Mazi's special advice, lowered his voice, and roared in a shocked and angry voice: "The boss has issued a strict order, no matter who disturbs the distinguished guests, they will all cut off their hands and feet, gouge out their eyes and tongues, and then peel their skin and cramp." He's always done what he says, do you want to try it? ”

The leading man was shocked, his face showed disbelief, and he stammered and asked, "Is this ...... It's true? ”

"Lao Tzu has been friends with you for so many years, will he still lie to you?"

The black-clothed trafficker slowly let go of his hand and instructed repeatedly: "Anyway, you remember for me, take care of these dolls, as long as they arrive in Chuzhou safely, it will be a great achievement." The boss said that as long as there are no mistakes on the road, the benefits of this trip will be tripled more for everyone. ”

From the events before and after, as well as the brief conversation between the two, Yang Tianhong has analyzed a lot of useful key information.

Zhang Mazi was afraid of the three guests who took the boat.

However, Zhang Mazi obviously wanted to get some kind of benefit from the three guests.

It can be seen that these three people only want to take a boat on the spot. They don't care about the speed of the boat, they just think of the boat ride as a game.

From this, it can be inferred that they are not the same as the traffickers at all.

The sun outside the window has begun to set slowly.

The black-clothed traffickers said that as soon as it gets dark, they will send all the children in the top cabin to the bottom cabin.

Time is running out.

Yang Tianhong was determined to take a gamble. Whether the result is dead or alive, it must be tried.

The black-clothed traffickers have already explained the relevant matters to the leading man. Just as he was about to turn around and walk out of the top cabin, he suddenly saw an unbelievable scene.

A thin child, like a wild horse, slammed into the window in the opposite direction. The tremendous force smashed the loose wooden windows to pieces, and the sky was suddenly sprinkled with sawdust and dust, and then on the deck below, there was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, and screams.

……

Ordinary people fall from a height of more than six meters, there are no more than three situations: unscathed, seriously injured, and killed on the spot.

Yang Tianhong's luck is not very good, but it is not too bad. The lattice shattered, sharp wooden thorns stabbed diagonally into the thigh, and the knee slammed directly into the hard deck without protection, and the pain was terrible, and blood was everywhere.

When he jumped from the top cabin, he carefully observed the situation below, saw the position, and landed right in front of the girl in blue. The moment the broken pieces of wood pierced into his body and let out a scream, Yang Tianhong grabbed the girl's shoes with his trembling and bloodstained right hand.

It's tight, and I'm not willing to let go at all.

It was his only lifeline.

Everything was so natural, everything was so sudden.

Zhang Mazi nodded and stayed with the three of them, his thoughts were interrupted instantly by this sudden change, his mind was blank, his mouth was open, and he didn't know what to say.

Yang Tianhong tried his best, and let out a hoarse and extremely painful scream: "Help!" Help me! ”

The middle-aged man in Confucian clothes frowned slightly, did not change his standing posture at all, just glanced at Yang Tianhong, who was covered in blood, and then shifted his gaze to the stunned Zhang Mazi.

The girl in blue instinctively bent down and supported Yang Tianhong, who was extremely painful, and the horror on her face quickly turned into a loss: "You, why are you ......?"

Seeing this, the young man standing next to him immediately stretched out his hand to stop him: "Senior sister, this is none of our business. ”

Under the prompt of this sentence, Zhang Mazi's stagnant thinking nerves suddenly woke up. The corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and a fierce and cruel killing intent was released from the depths of his eyes.

The fierce expression swept over his face, and Zhang Mazi covered it up well, and then showed a flattering smile. Bending down, he arched his hand to the middle-aged man standing in the first place, and said apologetically: "The child is ignorant and disturbs the distinguished guests. Hehe! I've prepared a banquet in the cabin, and I invite you to enjoy it! ”

Several big men standing nearby surrounded Yang Tianhong and viciously grabbed Yang Tianhong's collar, legs and feet, trying to take him away from the deck.

Although it was an accident, it was clear that the three guests on the boat did not want to meddle in their affairs.

The life and death of mortals are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the monks.

They and we are not on the same level, not in the same world.

Yang Tianhong grabbed the shoes of the girl in blue with both hands, and shouted desperately in his mouth.

"Please, help me!"

"They're going to kill me. They are all human traffickers. ”

"I'm not alone, there's a lot of ...... on this ship"

Just now, Yang Tianhong felt a heavy blow on his back, his eyes suddenly bulged, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

A wicked man threw his fist at him in the back. roared angrily: "Stinky boy, let me go!" Don't get your guests' clothes dirty! ”

Yang Tianhong felt that the blood was blocking his throat, and he desperately swallowed the blood gushing up from his body, speeding up his speech, and kept screaming.

"Heaven has the virtue of a good life, master, help!"

He grabbed so tightly that the girl in blue had been dragged and forced to move forward several steps.

The ferocious color on Zhang Mazi's face became deeper and deeper, he gritted his teeth fiercely, quickly let go, and roared at the other evil men standing next to him: "Bring an axe, cut off this kid's hand for me!" ”

Yang Tianhong's eyes were wide open, and his voice was slurred, but he was so sad that it was difficult to hold back: "The bottom of this ship is full of corpses, they kill people and overkill goods, and treat human life like a mustard. Master...... Master! Is it true that you can stand by and watch? ”

The moment the words "being a teacher" blurted out, Yang Tianhong clearly saw that the middle-aged man's face was as hard as a rock, and he was slightly moved.

The evil man had already taken the steel axe, picked it up, raised it high above his head, and grabbed the wrist of the blue-clothed girl towards Yang Tianhong, and slashed it hard.

"Bell!"

No one saw when the middle-aged man made a move, only to see a long sword suddenly resting on the steel axe cut in the air, making a crisp sound, and the thick and sharp axe blade suddenly collapsed, and a deep crack appeared on the metal surface.

The girl in blue subconsciously grabbed Yang Tianhong's shoulder.

Young men have a smoothness that ordinary people can hardly match.

He immediately grabbed Zhang Mazi standing beside him with his backhand, stretched out his five fingers, firmly clasped the other party's pulse, and his indifferent expression also changed to the indignation of a righteous person who could not bully the weak, and roared angrily in his mouth: "Say, what are you doing?" ”
