Standing on the deck of the official ship and looking down, on the river, those small boats are densely packed around the official ship, and the people on board are wearing everything and have all kinds of weapons in their hands.

They are from different forces, and they should have received the task of assassinating Chu Yan in Yanyulou at the same time, and they were temporarily summoned together to hijack the ship in Jiangxin!

The sound of "Boom" broke the wind, and as soon as the soldiers on the official ship poked their heads down, they were forced back by these killers using all kinds of hidden weapons, and then, the agile killer climbed along the hook and climbed to the official ship, and was about to board the deck of the official ship in the blink of an eye.

The soldiers, spears in hand, stabbed out.

After a few screams, the killer who was unfortunately stabbed by a spear fell into the river, and with a few "poofs, poofs", the surface of the river was instantly dyed red.

More killers jumped on official ships, ordinary soldiers were not opponents of these killers, and they gradually lost in the face of the endless sinister tricks of killers.

A long knife cut through the air from top to bottom, slashing at a tall killer, who obviously didn't expect that there was a master hidden in this group of soldiers, and for a moment he was careless, the speed of dodging was a little slower, and half of his arm was cut off by the long knife.

Hou Ji put away the knife, shook off the blood stains on the long knife, pointed the tip of the knife to the ground, and kicked the half-amputated arm off the boat with an expressionless face, this series of actions looked extremely handsome!

The tall killer was furious by this scene, roaring and rushing up to fight Hou Ji to the death.

The two dragon guards behind Hou Ji saw that the fuselage flashed, and instantly slashed the killer's stomach, and his intestines flowed to the ground.

Hou Ji slashed and killed the two more Assassins who jumped onto the deck, and then took the opportunity to retreat back to Chen Chao's side.

"How's it going?"

Chen Chao frowned and looked at Hou Ji and asked.

Hou Ji looked around the deck, looked at the victorious army who were fighting with the killers everywhere, frowned and responded: "The situation is not good, the opponents are all masters on the rivers and lakes, the moves are insidious, it is impossible to prevent it, there are all kinds of sects, our soldiers are okay to fight positional battles, and they can't deal with them."

Shout!

A poisoned arrow came from nowhere, and it was extremely fast.

The target was none other than the Chen Dynasty, who was surrounded by everyone in the center.

Hou Ji and the group of dragon guards looked like they had eyes on the back of their heads, and turned around and slashed the poisoned arrows that were fired.

At this time, Long Wuwei in the cabin came to tell the story, saying that some killers had come up from the bottom of the cabin, and all the sailors rowing had been killed.

The bottom of the cabin has been controlled by the killer, and the official ship has been forced to stop in the middle of the river, unable to move.

Hearing this news, Murong Chong on the side immediately became angry, his face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"The official ship is arranged by the ferry, and so are the sailors!"

"Those people at the ferry have been bought!"

Hearing this, Chen Chao did not speak.

Because it's all to be expected.

The eldest princess is a madman!

She will do everything she can to strangle Chu Yan on the river!

Summoning killers to besiege the official ship, bribing the officers and soldiers at the ferry, and ambushing the killer in advance on the official ship, all of this is her handiwork.

Pursing his lips and thinking for a moment, Chen Chao immediately commanded:

"Hou Ji, find a few people disguised as killers, go down and grab a small boat to ask for help from the people from the Chu side, be fast!"

Hou Ji clenched his fists and took the order, and immediately went to do it.

If someone wants Chu Yan to die, then someone wants Chu Yan to live!

Now the only people who can save the people who stopped on Jiang Xinguan's boat are the representatives sent by the Chu State to receive the mission.

As long as the news of help can be delivered to them in time, they will do everything possible to come to the rescue.

And now, the priority is to stall for time.

After Hou Ji left, Chen Chao looked at Murong Chong and immediately ordered:

"Order all the officers and men of the victorious army, fight and retreat, and give up the deck if necessary."

Murong Chong clenched his fists and gave the order.

The reason why the Chen Dynasty made this series of arrangements was that he didn't want these ordinary soldiers of the victorious army who were brave and fearless on the battlefield to die here in no apparent terms.

Sticking to the official ship and repelling the killers, the Chen Dynasty could certainly do it with hundreds of victorious troops and well-trained Long Wuwei, but the cost was extremely high.

Even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Chao quickly gave another order:

"Others, follow me to get rid of the killers in the cabin and take control of the cabin."

One by one, the orders were issued, and the crowd soon got busy.

.....

.....

An hour later, countless killers stepped onto the deck, grim faces, looking out at the door leading to the cabin ahead.

Just break through there, rush into the cabin, take Chu Yan out, cut off his head and bring it back.

One million taels of gold is in hand!

That's a mountain of gold.

Everyone was eager to give it a try.

But in front of that door, there was a person standing at the moment, a person standing in the way.

It was a lean man, his legs slightly spread at shoulder width, an iron knife standing in front of him, his hands folded on the hilt of the knife, and a faint smile on his face.

I have to say, this pose is very handsome.

Hou Ji always likes to do these handsome poses.

Fang just slashed and killed one person, and it was very handsome to throw down the blood of the long knife, and now it is also handsome for one person to block the killers from the door.

Chen Chao was a little jealous of him.

Needless to say at this time, the killers know what it means to stand in front of the door.

If you want to enter the cabin and cut off Chu Yan's head and take it back to ask for a reward, you need to pass him first.

And right now.

The door behind the man creaked, opened a small slit, and handed out a wooden box from inside, not knowing what it contained.

Tick tock.

Slight sound.

The killers followed the sound and could clearly see that blood was oozing out of the crack at the bottom of the box.

Looking at the size of the box again, it is just enough to hold a human head.

The killers glanced at each other, and their hearts couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Talk.

Hou Ji held up the box with one hand, glanced at everyone, and said with pride:

"Everyone, listen to me,"

As soon as these words came out, the killers suddenly stopped talking and looked at Hou Ji.

"All the heroes gathered here, it is nothing more than a profit, our Daji mission was ordered by the imperial court to escort Chu Yan to the state of Chu, should have resisted to the end, but the heart is more than enough but the strength is insufficient.

Therefore, we don't bother you heroes to do it yourself, we cut off the head of the sixth prince Chu Yan by ourselves, and put it in this box.

The heroes wanted, take it, but don't hurt the lives of our mission. ”

After speaking, the killers burst into laughter:

"You're carrying it."

"It's easy to say, we only want money and don't kill people."

"As long as you hand over Chu Yan's head, we will let your group of Daji friends who came from afar have a way out."

“……”

Killers, you say everything you say, you say anything.

Seeing that the situation was almost over, Hou Ji raised his head and looked forward, then looked at the box that was dripping blood in his hand, changed his words, and said:

"But Chu Yan only has this one head, there are so many of you, how can you divide it?"

After speaking, Hou Ji covered his forehead with his other hand.

Pretend to be very troubled.

One head, so many people on the scene.

Is it to be chopped into pieces, one for each person?

Apparently not.

Discussions broke out again at the scene, and the killers exchanged heads, "That's it, how can you divide this with only one human head?" ”

"That's a million taels of gold."

"Whoever grabs it is the one who wins."

"Fools, if we compete with each other, won't we make the fishermen profitable! Do you know that this is not a discordant plan of the Great Age? ”
