Chapter 65: Ning Ba
Chapter 65
The easternmost side of the girder is a vast ocean.
From ancient times to the present, countless people who live by the sea have survived by the sea, fishing, drying salt, enjoying all that the sea has to offer, and at the same time revering the sea.
Later, when the ships developed, everyone began to do business along the coastline, transporting grain from the north to the south, and then transporting silk from the south back, slowly forming a sea trade route, which people called Caoyun.
The Lin family also took over the Cao Yun business of the Liang Dynasty for a period of time, and during that time, Lin Weige could be said to have made a lot of money.
But where there are people, there are rules, and the same is true at sea.
The only difference is that the rules on land are set by the emperor, while the rules on the sea are subject to the Cao Gang.
The Cao Gang, formerly known as the Green Gang, is actually a small group formed by a group of boatmen who eat by the sea, and they help each other and hold each other tightly, which makes many foreign forces fearful.
But with the development of hundreds of years, the Cao Gang slowly became the overlord of the sea, whether it was the Northern Qi, Daliang or Western Shu, all the ships passing through the sea must pay tribute to the Cao Gang, otherwise the light will be intercepted, and the heavy will be sunk.
After Daliang dominated the world, he also sent a boat division to suppress it. But in the vast sea, the Cao Gang can be said to be home everywhere, and it cannot be completely eradicated at all.
It stands to reason that this kind of gang generally relies on a large number of people and unity to form a force, and basically there will be no martial arts masters willing to join, let alone anything like "not passing on the secret method" and "shaking the treasure of the gang".
Until the emergence of the new gang leader Ning Ba.
Strictly speaking, Ning Ba is not a member of the Cao Gang, and he can even be said to have a grudge against the Cao Gang.
His father used to be the leader of the Northern Qi Boat Division, and after the fall of the Northern Qi Dynasty, his father fled to the sea with the remnants of the generals by boat, and encountered the ship of Ling Hang, the leader of the Cao Gang at that time.
I don't know if it's because of the past round-up of the Cao Gang, Ling Hang actually ordered to directly sink the remnants of the Northern Qi Zhou Division.
It is said that in that battle, the Northern Qi Dynasty sank three large ships of the Cao Gang with the power of a boat, and then fought hand-to-hand with the thieves who boarded the ship, and slashed and killed more than 40 bandits.
And the Northern Qi Zhou Division has been wiped out since then, except for Ning Ba, who is still young, no one survives.
It is said that Ling Hang cut off his father's head with a knife in front of Ning Ba, and then carried the steaming head and put it in front of Ning Ba and laughed uncontrollably.
Later, the people didn't know, some people said that Ning Ba was adopted by Ling Hang, and some people said that the child jumped off the boat and ran away. In short, Ning Ba has disappeared from people's field of vision since then.
It wasn't until five years ago that a man wrapped in a red turban and a golden bell tied around his waist smashed into the rudder of the Cao Gang with a water-proof knife, and slashed almost all the leaders of the Cao Gang with his own strength, including Ling Hang, at this time people knew that Ning Ba was still alive, not only alive, but he also learned a martial art and successfully took revenge.
Ning Ba, who bloodied the Cao Gang overnight, did not completely subvert the Cao Gang as people imagined, but became the new leader of the gang that had killed his father under the fearful gaze of a group of water thieves.
It is said that after Ning Ba became the leader of the Cao Gang, he gave three death orders.
The first is to kill all the gang members who participated in the battle to sink the Northern Qi Boat Division, and even if they die, they must kill their wives and children and completely eradicate them.
The second is that from now on, the Cao Gang only robbed the government, not the people. It was precisely because of this rule that the Lin family gave up the business of continuing to manage the fortunes for the imperial court.
As for the last one, it is strange to say that this Ning Ba ordered the Cao Gang to accept only orphans and widows from now on, and no other people who took refuge in it.
。。。。。。。。。。
Lin Anyan looked at the scene in front of him and was a little puzzled.
"This is very different from the rumors in the rivers and lakes, didn't he take in orphans and widows?
Lin Anyan thought about it, I'm afraid that in front of the unique secrets of the Chengying Sword and Yu Zifeng, the owner of the Prison Sword Villa, anything anyone has said can be counted.
The group rested for half an hour, and Ning Ba finally stood up a little impatiently and said, "Have you thought about it, are you sure you don't talk about it now?"
He pointed ahead and said, "See clearly, over that mountain, it will be a hell on earth where everyone wants to get your mother and daughter, and then there will be no good-tempered people in the rivers and lakes like me, and they will do whatever it takes to force you to tell you the whereabouts of the Chengying Sword." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the child behind Sun Yun and said, "For example, the Heavenly Silkworm Gate, which is notoriously insidious and vicious. When the time comes, they will cut your daughter into pieces from the foot in front of you, and with their unique poison, your daughter may not die if she is cut to the waist, and you will not say anything at that time?"
Sun Yun was obviously frightened by Ning Ba's words, and couldn't help but squat down and hugged the little girl.
Lin Anyan was also so angry when he heard this, he didn't care if he was a little reckless, he flew out directly from behind the tree, pulled out the white rainbow sword, and stabbed Ning Ba with one blow.
Ning Ba didn't expect someone to follow behind him, and this sword was fierce, so he didn't dare to take it hard, so he had to roll on the spot and push a man next to him out casually.
The poor man didn't know anything, and in the blink of an eye he became his substitute.
Ning Ba was a little panicked, but after all, as the leader of the Cao Gang, he quickly calmed down and fixed his eyes on the dark-skinned, handsome-looking man in front of him.
Sun Yun looked at the man and said with some incredulity: "You are the one who was in the Ye family just now... ”
Lin Anyan nodded, and then pointed his sword at Ning Ba.
"You, get out. ”
Ning Ba had never heard anyone talk to him like this, so he couldn't help but laugh angrily: "Where did you kid come from, you want to succeed?
As he spoke, more than a dozen members of the Cao Gang were killed together, and all kinds of knives, guns, and sticks beckoned over together.
Lin Anyan looked at this group of water thieves and couldn't help but smile contemptuously.
I saw him holding the white rainbow sword in front of him, tiptoe up slightly, and then a sword slashed horizontally.
"Broken!"
Another turn, his feet on the ground, his wrists flipped, and he struggled to pick up from the bottom up.
"Broken!"
Another side flip, Bai Hong slashed straight down, and where the sword blade passed, it seemed that even the air had been cut through a gap.
"Broken!"
After shouting the word "break" three times, the water thieves who were still violent, suddenly screamed and scattered and exploded, and instantly lay down.
Ning Ba looked at his subordinates who fell to the ground in surprise, those people either had broken hands and feet, or they were cut off a big hole in their chests, and the worst was slashed from their foreheads to their stomachs by a sword, and their entire upper body seemed to be torn open alive, lying on the ground wailing in pain.
Ning Ba slowly took out the water-proof knife from his waist, clenched it in his hand, clasped his hands into fists and asked, "I don't know where the master is?"
Lin Anyan replied coldly: "A sword practitioner." ”
Ning Ba nodded, and said softly: "Lao Tzu planted it today, since the master has just appeared in the Ye family, he must not be a small person, I will hand over this mother and daughter to you, can I take my brothers to heal." ”
As he spoke, he leaned over his waist and made a strange gesture with his knife back down. is obviously telling Lin Anyan that if he doesn't agree, he will immediately rush up and fight hard.
Lin Anyan looked at this man of the same age as him with some curiosity, "You sold two of your subordinates directly this morning, what is it to ask me for someone now, pretending to be brotherly?"
Ning Ba shook his head and said, "They can die for the Cao Gang, but they can't die because of me Ning Ba." ”
Lin Anyan knows the importance of cutting weeds and roots, and at this moment he is also confident that he can do weeds and roots.
But for some reason, he looked at Ning Ba and always felt that this person seemed to be a little different from the legendary Wu Evil.
Lin Anyan hesitated, nodded and said, "It's okay to let you go, but you can't tell others where Sun Yun's mother and daughter are, let alone fight them again." ”
Ning Ba nodded, got up to put away the knife, took out a box from his arms and threw it to Lin Anyan.
"This is a water-repellent bead, a unique treasure of my Cao Gang, I will hand it over to you today, count it as my promise to you Ning Ba, since the master is willing to let my brother go, I will naturally agree to your request." ”
After speaking, Ning Ba hurriedly checked everyone's injuries, and then commanded the people who could still stand up to support the seriously injured, and he himself hugged two people in front of him and on his back, and left slowly.
Lin Anyan gently put away the white rainbow after making sure that everyone's breath was far away.
At this time, he showed that he seemed to be extremely calm, but in fact, his heart was already surging.
Because just now, he actually used only his sword qi to cut more than a dozen people with three swords, and there were several masters of the Five Heavens. You must know that he has only been practicing martial arts for thirty years.
Lin Anyan looked down at the hands that were already covered with calluses and trembled slightly because of excitement, and suddenly laughed silently.
Three years, let the master live through these three years, the master will definitely be able to carry the Lin family.
Sun Yun took the little girl's hand and walked to Lin Anyan and knelt directly on the ground.
"Thank you for saving your life. ”
Lin Anyan hurriedly helped the mother and daughter up, and said with some embarrassment: "Sister Yun is too polite, compared to your husband, what kind of hero am I." ”
When Sun Yun heard this, she suddenly took a few steps back nervously, and blocked the girl behind her with one hand.
Seeing this, Lin Anyan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Sister Yun, you misunderstood, I just heard the rumors in the rivers and lakes, and I never had any thoughts of beating you and the child." ”
Sun Yun sighed a little helplessly and said: "Many people have told me this, but in the end, even the people of Prison Sword Villa want to arrest our mother and daughter. ”
She smiled apologetically at Lin Anyan, "There are more people I have seen, so I naturally look at people more accurately." I can see that Childe is indeed a good person, and I was rude just now. ”
As she spoke, she bowed slightly and bowed to Lin Anyan.
Lin Anyan scratched her head a little embarrassed and said, "Let's go, Sister Yun, let's go back." ”
"Where are you going?"
"Go back to Baitou Village, Brother Ye, they are still waiting. ”
Sun Yun shook his head firmly and said, "I can't go back." ”
"The people of the Cao Gang are here, and then there will be the Heavenly Silkworm Gate, the Five Thunder Mountains, and all kinds of people will come to them. Ning Ba just said something right, they are really very polite, if I go back, I am afraid that one day, Baitou Village will be slaughtered. ”
As she spoke, Sun Yun took the girl's hand and slowly turned to leave.
Seeing this, Lin Anyan hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Sister Yun, where are you going?" ”
Sun Yun didn't stop, just said as she walked: "I don't know, let's find another place to stay." ”
Lin Anyan also knew that what Sun Yun said was true, and going back at this time would only bring disaster to Baitou Village, but he was definitely not the kind of person who helped others for half of the way, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed at this time.
"Sister Yun, why don't I send you back to Jingbei City. ”
Sun Yun smiled a little helplessly: "What's the use of Jingbei City, do you really think that those outlaws will take care of the foot of the imperial city?"
Lin Anyan explained: "My surname is Lin. ”
When Sun Yun heard this, she turned her head and looked at the boy in front of her with some surprise, just now she only felt that this person was in a strong shape, but at this moment, she looked very handsome, and although her skin was dark, she was also delicate.
Sun Yun nodded and said: "It turned out to be the son of the Lin family, although I have never heard of you, but I think I am also a heroic young man, you actually came to such a far away place to practice, it hurts you." ”
Lin Anyan has always been called "King of Lin Yan", and Sun Yun's words as a heroic boy made the cheeky him a little overwhelmed for a while.
I only heard Sun Yun continue: "It's useless, what about the Lin family, if I am only in the Sword Mountain, I will not lose to the Lin family in the Sword Villa, but aren't our mother and daughter still down." I appreciate Lin Gongzi's kindness, but there are already too many people who have died for me, and I can't die anymore. ”
Lin Anyan nodded and didn't say anything more.
In fact, it was just said that sending the mother and daughter back to Jingbei City was just a temporary statement, after all, in Lin Anyan's mind, the big thing could be solved when he returned there.
But not to mention that his life does not allow him to leave Taibai Mountain for so long, even if he sacrifices his life to accompany the gentleman, the countless "hungry wolves" along the way are staring at the fat in front of him, and he does not dare to guarantee that he can send his mother and daughter back smoothly.
Helpless, he had to follow the mother and daughter silently, walking aimlessly around the mountains.
