In this operation, Lin Duci and Lu Mingze, who were in charge of diverting the tiger from the mountain, were fighting face-to-face with the water bandits on the river bank at this time.

Thinking that His Royal Highness the princess and the concubine actually "did things for them", Lu Mingze simply used his strength to eat milk, and soon he was red-eyed because of murder.

Shen Er, Shen San, and Tang Yu spared no effort to attract the attention of Chai Dashan's subordinates, for fear that they would not be looked at by the other party because they were not strong enough, and finally affect their master's actions.

In the room of Cuilin Yuan, on the round mansha bed, Tang Zongjiu was expressionless.

Since Shen Qi proposed to take risks by himself, Tang Zongjiu's sacrifice among all people was the greatest.

He originally thought that he would always play the role of a guardian, but he didn't expect it.

He indulged in alcohol, and he was also a good man who stood up to the sky, a general who would fight bravely on the battlefield in the future, and a Tang Xiaogongzi who could fascinate all beings in Xi Guo back then, and now he was reduced to "seducing" a dog man with a meaty face.

He never wanted to touch women's clothing again in his life.

Shiba Dashan is burly, muscular, with thick eyebrows and thick lips.

He sat side by side with the beauty, his eyes glowing with greed.

"Beauty, don't worry, with you, I won't want anyone." Chai Dashan said while swallowing saliva.

Tang Zongjiu's anger value had passed the critical point at this time, and he had been trying to break through the medicinal properties.

His appearance at the moment, coupled with his cold expression, is not only an iceberg, it is simply an iceberg, from head to toe, every hair inside and out seems to be covered with ice.

Chai Dashan's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.

"Beauty, beauty!" He hugged Tang Zongjiu with both hands.

Tang Zongjiu raised his hand to stop it, but he couldn't resist it because of the drug!

Tang Zongjiu couldn't believe that his strength was so small at the moment!

In the next second, he was hugged by Chai Dashan, and Tang Zongjiu's whole body seemed to have eaten.

"Let go!" Tang Zongjiu said angrily.

"Beauty, you are so fragrant!" Chai Dashan not only didn't let go, but also sniffed Tang Zongjiu.

Tang Zongjiu didn't spit it out.

"Get out!" Tang Zongjiu shouted.

"Beauty, it's useless for you to call it again."

After saying this, Chai Dashan raised the salty pig hand and actually stretched it into Tang Zongjiu's clothes!

Tang Zongjiu suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a hundred-year-old dung pit, and his surroundings were filled with a vicious miasma.

Just as Chai Dashan's hand touched Tang Zongjiu's flat chest, Tang Zongjiu's internal force recovered at that moment, and he instantly gathered all his internal force on his palm and slammed it towards Chai Dashan's chest.

When Chai Dashan touched the chest of the platform, he reacted very quickly, and immediately slapped Tang Zongjiu.

At the same time as the two of them took out their palms, the guards who were monitoring Shen Qi suddenly made a move and rushed in from outside the house.

Tang Zongjiu and Chai Dashan, and the guard and Shen Yi faced each other in less than a blink of an eye.

"You're a man?" Chai Dashan was surprised.

Tang Zongjiu just wants to gouge out his eyes now, and he will shoot hard and make a fatal move.

Chai Dashan has been wandering between life and death for many years, and he obviously felt that Tang Zongjiu's strength was completely different from ordinary people in the past.

I saw that the sword in Tang Zongjiu's hand was as fast as lightning, and it drew blood marks on Chai Dashan's body with an afterimage that was invisible to the naked eye.

Tang Zongjiu's eyes were cold, if it was an ordinary person, it would be impossible to stand at this time.

Tang Zongjiu was confident that his few knives were enough to cut off an ordinary person's arm, but this kind of force only scratched a few blood marks on Chai Dashan's body.

This realization made Tang Zongjiu can't help but wait for him.

Chai Dashan in front of him, even though he is a lustful and cruel person, he has to admit that he has this strength.

It's no wonder that all the previous assassinations ended in failure, it was really Chai Dashan's strength that was the strongest among the opponents Tang Zongjiu had ever encountered.

As far as his body seems to be an impregnable body, ordinary killers only have the share of recognition.

"How can you still be distracted?" Chai Dashan faced Tang Zongjiu with indescribable excitement on his face.

With that, he smashed a sharp fist into Tang Zongjiu's wrist holding the dagger.

Tang Zongjiu was in pain, but he didn't let go, but turned around sharply and stabbed the dagger straight at Chai Dashan's wrist.

After Chai Dashan let go of his fist, he actually licked his fist.

"I just like to be energetic." Chai Dashan laughed and said, "I like men too!" ”

Tang Zongjiu was silent, adjusted his internal strength to the limit, raised his dagger and stabbed it at Chai Dashan's eyes.

Tang Zongjiu's momentum was like a mountain, and Chai Dashan had no choice but to take a few steps back in a defensive state.

"Smack——! With a bang, Chai Dashan took the white blade with his bare hands and firmly clamped Tang Zongjiu's dagger.

He even stuck out his tongue at Tang Zongjiu and licked his lips.

Tang Zongjiu burst out of internal force, and the green tendons in his neck burst out, concentrating all his strength on the hand that was aimed at Chai Dashan's eyeballs.

Chai Dashan's eyes widened into a circle, and his eyeballs kept shaking in his sockets.

Pressing his throat in his mouth, he said badly.

"Lao Tzu wants, do it, die, you."

Tang Zongjiu was not affected by such meaningless words, and all his attention was focused on that point.

Because the Tang Zong wine is above, it can better use its strength.

I saw that the dagger was close to Chai Dashan's eyeball by a small inch, but it stopped when it was only a millimeter away from the eyeball.

"Is that all?" Chai Dashan laughed and said, "Is that all there is to it?!" If that's the case. ”

The thick green tendons on Chai Dashan's forehead burst one by one, and Tang Zongjiu suddenly felt a terrifying force like Mount Tai coming from the dagger.

"You just wait to serve Lao Tzu obediently!"

Chai Dashan let out a loud shout, and his already thick arms expanded in a circle.

Tang Zongjiu's pupils shrank suddenly, and Chai Dashan's strength was still increasing!

Tang Zongjiu quickly dodged in an attempt to avoid Chai Dashan's impact.

But what Tang Zongjiu didn't expect was that Chai Dashan's speed was actually very fast!

In the next second, Chai Dashan directly stuck to Tang Zongjiu, and a big bear hug firmly restrained Tang Zongjiu.

Tang Zongjiu couldn't break free for a while!

Immediately afterwards, a trace of fierceness flashed in Chai Dashan's eyes.

Tang Zongjiu yelled badly!

With a loud bang, Chai Dashan hugged Tang Zongjiu and made a fierce over-the-shoulder fall!

Tang Zongjiu's eyes suddenly burst into stars, and his mind was in a trance at that moment.

The next moment, Chai Dashan kicked Tang Zongjiu against the wall, and the wall even hit a slight crack.

"Poof-" a sound.

Tang Zongjiu violently spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Tut-tut."

Chai Dashan squatted in front of Tang Zongjiu, opened his palm and grabbed Tang Zongjiu's chin, and two thick fingers pinched Tang Zongjiu's cheeks into two holes.

"The people who came to kill me were not dozens, but hundreds." Chai Dashan's tone was a hint of perverseness, "You were the first to force me to this point." ”

He approached Tang Zongjiu and carefully observed Tang Zongjiu's face: "How do you say I should reward you?" ”

Tang Zongjiu's quenched eyes suddenly smiled.

"Reward me?" Tang Zongjiu shot again in an instant, "It also depends on whether you have this ability!" ”

"You ......" Chai Dashan was just about to speak, when he suddenly felt a trace of murderous aura behind him, and when he turned his head again, he was stabbed in the waist by Shen Yiyi's sword.

And before he could turn his head to resist, Tang Zongjiu quickly grabbed the dagger and slashed it at his eyes.

"Ah——!h

Chai Dashan shouted.

He may have beaten a Tang Zongjiu, but he is definitely not the opponent of Tang Zongjiu and Shen Yi.

At this time, the rest of the entire Cuilin Yuan was attracted to the riverbank by Lin Duci and Lu Mingze, and they have not come back until now.

Obviously, they are also trying their best to hold each other back.

In the whole plan, the only unexpected thing was that Chai Dashan's strength was far more terrifying than the rumors, but fortunately, Shen Yi dealt with the guard first and arrived in time, otherwise Tang Zongjiu was really likely to have an accident.

Chai Dashan, whose eyes were injured, suddenly fell into madness.

He covered his eyes and screamed, blood pouring from his fingertips.

Suddenly, he stopped covering his eyes, but didn't know what he had taken out of his arms.

"Beware of firearms!" Tang Zongjiu shouted.

Chai Dashan didn't care about the pain at all at this time, his eyes widened with all his strength, and he shot the musket at Tang Zongjiu without hesitation.

"Bang ——!" With a bang, a hole was punched through the wall.

And Tang Zongjiu's head was next to the smoking hole.

"Bang bang bang-" four sounds, and the whole house seemed to tremble.

Thanks to Chai Dashan's overconfidence and half-blind eyes, otherwise if he used a firearm at the beginning, Tang Zongjiu would have died instantly.

It is impossible to have bullets from firearms all the time, so in the end, with the cooperation of Tang Zongjiu and Shen Yi, Chai Dashan was finally taken.

As soon as he took Chai Dashan, Tang Zongjiu gave him cartilage powder.

"How many people did you bring?" Tang Zongjiu asked Shen Yi.

"Five." Shen Yiyi.

"That's enough."

Tang Zongjiu tied Chai Dashan to death: "Bring people back." ”

With that, he glanced at the firearm on the side.

According to Liu Changpeng's status, if there were firearms in the jurisdiction, as long as the number was small, the imperial court allowed it.

Chai Dashan's firearm did not play a decisive role.

Tang Zongjiu picked up the firearm and, together with Shen and a few others, arrested Chai Dashan back to the Tang Mansion.

There is a road in the northwest of Linxi City, which is very flat because people walk a lot, and there is a boundary monument erected on the side of the road, which reads: Red Forest.

Within the boundary of the red forest is the village of the water bandits, and the same boundary monument is also on the river near Linxi City.

The whole water bandit village is divided into two parts: land and water.

The land part occupies most of the hill that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, standing between the lofty mountains, like a majestic stone castle, magnificent.

The stockade was made of countless stones and adobes, scattered on the mountainside, surrounded by dense trees, and the walls were covered with lookout holes and arrow towers, showing the tightness of the defense.

The roads inside the village are intricate, and the houses are scattered, as if it were a labyrinth, and from a distance, the cottage blends with the surrounding mountains and rivers, like a natural fortress.

On the other side of the village, there is a large river bank, and the headquarters of the water village is hidden in the deep river, like a cunning beast, quietly lurking under the water.

It consists of countless ships, cleverly linked together to form an impregnable floating fortress.

In the center stands a majestic main ship, painted in dark black, which is the residence of the bandit leader and the heart of the entire stockade.

Standing on those towering watchtowers, the bandits are constantly on the lookout for movement around them, as if they will react quickly if they detect any threat.

Surrounded by a dense array of turrets and catapults, the stockade is an invisible line of defense against any enemy who dares to approach.

At this time, a wooden cart was walking towards the area divided by the Red Forest Boundary Monument.

"What people!" The bandit guard from a stand yelled at the people below.

When the man pushing the carriage heard the sound, he immediately put down the carriage and ran away as fast as he could.

The bandit guards glanced at each other and informed the steward inside.

The steward walked over to the cart.

I saw a pile of grass on the wooden cart, and a square wooden box was placed on the straw.

"You, open it and take a look!" The steward commanded to his men.

The subordinates on the side gave the order and stepped forward.

He picked up his machete and slashed at the lock of the square box.

"Bang-" With a bang, the lock was dropped.

His subordinates opened the box, and when he saw the contents clearly, he was terrified, and the whole box was picked up by the knife in his hand.

The steward's eyes followed the falling object all the way, and when he saw what it was, he shuddered with fright.

It was Chai Dashan's eyes.

The other party was afraid that the water bandits didn't know who it was, and there was a letter on the side.

There is a line of beautiful and neat calligraphy on the letter: The owner of the village is lightly opened.

"Pick things up and put them away! Then follow me in! ”

The steward did not dare to delay at all, and immediately ran into the stockade.

Deep in the water bandit village.

The water dungeon of the bandits is built underground, and the walls around it are wet all year round, dripping water at any time.

These water prisons are specially designed to hold undercover agents who come to inquire about the news, as well as some traitors who have been plotted by the imperial court to get rid of the water bandits.

The cell was dimly lit, with only a faint light barely illuminating the surroundings, and in the center of the dungeon was a deep pit filled with water.

At this moment, a man is chained to the pit wall, and his body is soaked in cold water.

No part of his body was dry, his pale face was covered by wet hair, and his once muscular body had long been wrinkled from blisters.

He had all kinds of big and small injuries from head to toe, his body was shaking uncontrollably, the wounds were constantly rotting and pus, and even emitted a stench mixed with river water.

Above the water dungeon, sat a woman with a bewitching appearance and a bewitching figure, with a convex and backward curve.

This woman is none other than one of the three masters, Liu Qiongying.

A month ago, when Lu Minghao, who was assumed the pseudonym Chen Hao, was found to be an undercover agent of the imperial court, he had just sent a secret letter to the imperial court.

He was arrested by Liu Qiongying on the spot.

When Liu Qiongying arrested Lu Minghao, Lu Minghao committed suicide as soon as possible, but his speed was one step slower than Liu Qiongying.

Liu Qiongying took the lead in removing Lu Minghao's chin and hands.

After that, a month of torture followed.

Liu Qiongying tried all kinds of means to get him to tell his upline and downline, as well as the content of the secret letter, but Lu Minghao was silent.

This muscular man has a will of steel.

The soldering iron could not burn his faith, the leather whip could not wear out his perseverance, and even this dark water prison could not shake his indomitable spirit even a penny.

Pain, starvation, death, threats, torture.

This man felt his fingernails peeling off piece by piece, skin being cut piece by piece, and no matter how much pain he felt, he didn't say a word.

Liu Qiongying used all the methods she could think of, and every time a man was dying, she hung him with the best medicine to prevent him from dying.

However, in response to her, there was always only the unwavering gaze of the man.

His sharp eyes were as bright as the heavenly gods, and after this month, life was worse than death, and it had not weakened by half a minute.

What has this man experienced to practice, such an ironclad mind.

Liu Qiongying was particularly curious about this.

She has been the owner of the water bandit village for so many years, and she has seen all kinds of men, but no one has ever been able to survive a month's sentence here.

Only Lu Minghao.

Liu Qiongying looked at Lu Minghao condescendingly.

Between her and Lu Minghao, it was the beginning of each other's deception.

If she hadn't deceived Lu Minghao, Lu Minghao would not have shown his feet in front of her.

She took advantage of her advantages as a woman, and even took advantage of Lu Minghao's compassion.

After all, a real water bandit will not help a woman who has become a water bandit's plaything to escape.

She took advantage of Lu Minghao's integrity and kindness.

"It turns out that your real name is Lu Minghao." Liu Qiongying said slowly.

The chains in the ground suddenly moved.

"The people who were arrested with you can't stand the torture anymore and recruit his upline, that is, you." Liu Qiongying smiled and said, "What are you still insisting on?" ”

Lu Minghao underground, returned to a motionless state as if his soul was out of his body.

"I like you more and more, Lu Minghao." Liu Qiongying smiled and said, "So I'll see you off in person." ”

As she spoke, she said to the water bandit on the side, "Put him in the execution ground." ”

"Yes."

The execution site of the water village is located in the middle of the land village.

Due to the years of bloodstains, the wooden execution table has turned crimson.

Liu Qiongying didn't expect Lu Minghao's public execution to blow up the undercover agents hiding among the bandits.

She just wanted Lu Minghao's head to hang in front of the minister's mansion, and give this little white face to the bandits as soon as he took office.

A few days ago, the entire three squads under the first division of their three villages were wiped out, which shocked the whole village.

Liu Qiongying must be angry.

Lu Minghao, who had been locked up in the water prison for more than half a month, finally saw the sun at this moment.

And his whole body seemed to be like crumpled paper, and he couldn't even open his eyes in the sun.

He was bound and kneeling on the execution table.

He closed his eyes.

After holding on for so long, I can finally be freed.
