The captain of the guard looked at the tall young man in front of him, and knew that this person was Zhang Ping, but when he came to my side, I didn't even know, the orange halo flashing on his body represented his strength, which could not explain that this young man came behind him silently.

Could it be that Wu Fan's summoning was not pretending? There is such a suffocating operation in the world?

"You bastard, you don't perform your duties as a guard, but you sneak attack my dear junior brother, you deserve to die!" Zhang Ping rebuked angrily.

"Hmph, just because you want to cure my sin, just because you want to cure me? Originally, as long as Wu Fan's life, since you sent it to the door, you should also go. ”

As he spoke, a pale yellow halo flashed on the captain of the guard, Huang Mang Xiaocheng! faintly reached the limit, not a few steps away from Huang Mang Dacheng!

Immediately, a sword light slashed towards Zhang Ping, and the speed of the sword light was extremely fast, breaking through the wind.

Zhang Ping was unmoved, and a hand wearing a fist raised and grabbed the sword accurately.

The captain of the guard narrowed his pupils, and took the sword with his bare hands, how could the small orange realm do it?

Zhang Ping said leisurely: "In my eyes, your sword speed is too slow, and your strength is not worth mentioning, although I only have the Orange Mang realm, how can I be an ordinary person?"

The captain of the guard was shocked, the person in front of him was afraid that he was like Wu Fan, and had the strength to fight beyond the level, he hurriedly drew his sword and left, but found that his sword was only held in Zhang Ping's hand, and he did not move.

Immediately decided, abandoned the sword and left, the captain of the guard reacted very quickly, and went quite decisively.

How could Zhang Ping let him succeed, whether it was speed or strength, he was far superior to the captain of the guard, and he had already caught up in the blink of an eye.

"Death!"

Zhang Ping shouted, and the orange-covered fist slammed out, the fist penetrated the yellow halo on the captain of the guard, and hit the back firmly.

The captain of the guard only felt the pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, this punch had at least the power of Huang Mang, and then his brain went blank, his body was light, and the blood was spilled, and he flew out upside down.

The captain of the guard who was knocked down by a punch was unconscious, his body rolled freely on the ground, and the great movement attracted the attention of several black water beasts, who quickly noticed the body here, and then pounced on it, tearing at the slightly cold corpse, enjoying the food in their mouths......

When the crisis was over for the time being, Zhang Ping hugged Wu Fan's injured body and said with concern: "Dear junior brother, are you okay, Fang Cai is really dangerous, fortunately I arrived in time at the critical moment, otherwise our senior brother will be separated from yin and yang, forever." I can't live without you, otherwise who will be my junior brother. ”

Wu Fan was full of black lines, if he wasn't injured, he would definitely have a big battle with Zhang Ping.

"Alright, the captain of the guard has an accomplice, see how energetic you are, let's take him out together. Wu Fan said.

Zhang Ping recalled slightly, and said: "It's a guy named Sun Yue, he is clever, and when he saw me appear, he ran away without reminding his captain." ”

Good guy, Sun Yue is afraid that he has seen Zhang Ping fight the Black Water Beast, and he knows Zhang Ping's strength, otherwise he would not have fled immediately.

Zhang Ping continued: "As long as you are still on the boat, that guy can't run out of my palm, the top priority is your injury, you can't deal with the blackwater beasts around you, let me stay and take care of you, who made me a senior brother, and I should take care of my junior brother." ”

Wu Fan was speechless, and let Zhang Ping carry him, jumping up and down on this battlefield, killing all sides.

The battle continues, and the Grim Reaper is always harvesting fragile lives, whether they are fanged pirates or blackwater beasts, this is already a bloody purgatory.

Suddenly, the whole boat swayed, and Zhang Ping stumbled and almost fell down with Wu Fan.

The other people on the boat were not much better, one by one the center of gravity was unstable, swaying, and even a few people fell directly to the ground, and a few people who were fighting on the side of the ship accidentally fell into the sea and fell into the world of the black water beast......

The sudden shock made the pirates lose their ability to fight in an instant, and the Blackwater Beast could completely seize this moment and give them the most fatal blow.

But......

"What's wrong, what's going on?" someone shouted.

"Look, the Blackwater Beast is shaking!"

"What's going on? The Blackwater Beast is retreating, not as ferocious as it was just now. ”

"Haha, these brutes are scared!" someone laughed.

"It's Brother Qiang! Brother Qiang killed the biggest black water beast! This group of black water beasts is scared!"

On the side of the ship, Li Qiang looked at the sword in his hand, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, the sword was covered with cracks, and the sharpness became jagged, turning from a sharp sword to a blunt sword, and the sword was almost on the verge of breaking.

Beside him lay the corpse of a huge headless black water beast, its fat body full of broken weapons, including swords, knives, and axes......

Recalling the battle just now, his heart became more and more bitter, "This price is too great......

On the chaotic battlefield, no one knew how Li Qiang killed the black water beast that was difficult to injure with a knife and gun, and the person concerned put the remnant sword in his hand on the ground in pain, this is a different sword, a sword that can only be understood by reaching his level.

This hard-won sword, today finally completed its mission, think about how much you cherish this sword, but you lost it today, but to be able to protect the crew, in the fight to end yourself, maybe this is the glory of the sword!

So he slammed his palm at the remnant sword.

"Ding!

The sword is broken, and the palm is broken......

Then, Li Qiang looked at the battlefield, he was still needed here!

"The huge black water beast has been slain by me! the remaining black water beasts are not to be feared, everyone will kill them back with me!" Zhang Ping shouted.

"Kill back, kill back, kill back!"

The momentum of the people was high, the morale was greatly boosted, and the fatigue after the fierce battle was swept away, and they took up arms and fought bravely to kill the enemy.

The Blackwater Beasts did not have the courage to fight and fled, while the pirates were brave and fearless, waving their weapons incessantly. After a while, the Blackwater Beast was defeated and fled.

At last, they were victorious! The crowd cheered and wept with joy.

On the deck, not a single blackwater beast could stand except for the corpses lying down, and finally they drove all the blackwater beasts away, and everyone was relieved, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and showed joy, no matter what, they were victorious!

There was no complete black water beast on the ship, but near the ship, there were still many black water beasts wandering in the sea water, at this time Li Qiang raised his hand and said loudly: "All the guards return to their positions, and the gunners listen to the order and fire at the surrounding black water beasts!"

In an instant, the cannons were aimed at the Black Water Beasts on the sea.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The sound of cannons continued one after another, the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, and the sea water churned, rolling up the mutilated corpse of the Black Water Beast. For a while, the Blackwater Beast was slaughtered wildly, and after a while, the Blackwater Beast, frightened by the power of the artillery, scattered, and in the end, the crisis was all solved.

"Stop!"

At the sound of an order, the shells stopped firing, and the sea gradually calmed down, and a large number of bloody corpses appeared.

Li Qiang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't let his guard down, and said, "Everyone hurry up and clean up the battlefield, throw the corpse into the sea, wash away the blood, and the ship will move forward at full speed!"

With the star blue light as a guide, they no longer drive cautiously, they have to leave here quickly, the traces of the battle just now will definitely attract some powerful beings in the sea, if they don't run at this time, I'm afraid it will be too late.

Everyone present cleaned up the battlefield, even the injured Wu Fan was no exception, after several crises, they had already thrown themselves into Li Qiang's skills, and they did not dare to slack off at all with Li Qiang's orders, and even were extremely active.

"Bastard!

There was a roar from the crowd, and I saw Zhang Ping chasing Sun Yue frantically with Wu Fan on his back, looking like he was not dying.

It can be found that Sun Yue is also thanks to Zhang Ping's good eyes, Sun Yue actually dressed up in disguise after escaping before, changed his appearance a few points, and then smeared his body with beast blood, turning into an appearance of fighting to kill beasts. If it was Wu Fan, even if he stood in front of him, he might not be able to see it.

"Brother Qiang, help!" Sun Yue shouted beside Li Qiang.

Sun Yue was pleasantly surprised when he saw Li Qiang, he knew a little about Li Qiang's character, and as a member of the escort team, he might be able to save his life.

"They killed my captain! They are still chasing me! They want to kill people!" Sun Yue first sued, describing Wu Fan and the others as heinous murderers.

Zhang Ping was furious when he heard this, and said: "You despicable villain, reverse right and wrong, see that I don't kill you!"

Just as Zhang Ping made a move, Sanming stepped forward and maintained: "Wait! He won't be untargeted in this matter, there must be reasons we don't know." ”

"You mean it's our fault!?" Zhang Ping said angrily.

Sanming said coldly: "I don't care about the grievances between you, but there is one point, you killed the captain of the guard?"

At this time, Wu Fan said gloomily: "We did kill a guard captain, and he wanted to kill me, so he should die!"

"You ......" Sanming was angry and said, "Since that's the case, don't blame me for doing it!"

Zhang Ping said: "Do it, I'm afraid you won't succeed?" Your escort team is quite unreasonable guys, obviously your own team members have problems, but they always defend their own people, and blame us for the reason. ”

Li Qiang on the side frowned and said, "I think there may be some misunderstanding here, Dongxing, tell me what happened before?"

Lin Dongxing answered truthfully, bringing out the contradictions of several people one by one, and Li Qiang listened while carefully thinking about the causes and consequences of this matter.

After a while, Li Qiang said to Zhang Ping and Wu Fan: "I probably know something about this matter, in fact, don't complain about Sanming, he is an upright person, and he does not intend to protect the team members." Problems with our escort team members are usually solved by themselves, and you didn't go through the procedure and killed the escort captain directly, and he was somewhat dissatisfied, so he stood up. Although he is a little short-tempered, he is really not a bad person, so don't worry too much about him. ”

Zhang Ping snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more, Li Qiang saw that they seemed to let go of the mustard for Sanming, so he continued: "As for the contradiction between you and Sun Yue, I will give you an explanation!"

As he spoke, Li Qiang reached out and took Sanming's big sword, and before Sun Yue could react, a sword slashed, blood splashed everywhere, and the head fell to the ground!

"This ......"

This scene shocked everyone's hearts, the killing was decisive and clean, Li Qiang deserved to be the leader of the escort team!

"Are you two satisfied with this treatment?" asked Li Qiang calmly.

Zhang Ping swallowed his saliva and was speechless for a while, Wu Fan was a little better, and replied, "Thank you, Brother Qiang!"

Li Qiang nodded, and then said to Lin Dongxing: "Dongxing, you go and count the number of people, and you will report the casualties to me later." ”

"Yes!" Lin Dongxing replied.

"Sanming, you go and urge others to return to their positions, there can be no slackness, if there is an accident, severe punishment will not be granted!"

"Yes!" Sanming replied.

After the next arrangements were planned, Li Qiang turned to look at Wu Fan and the others, and said, "You come with me." ”

After the two teenagers glanced at each other, they followed Li Qiang, so they returned to Li Qiang's room, because of the impact of the black water beast, the originally clean and tidy room became a mess.

Li Qiang only frowned slightly, then lifted up the fallen table and chairs, sorted out an open space in the shortest possible time, and asked Zhang Ping and Wu Fan to sit down.

After the three of them sat down, Li Qiang said sincerely: "Because of my negligence, you have accepted your grievances, I hope you will understand." ”

"Brother Qiang believes in us, even if we are greatly wronged, we don't care!" Zhang Ping said.

Trust is a perennial issue, because it is a key bond between people, and Li Qiang was able to trust Wu Fan and Zhang Ping, so it can be said that their relationship has deepened.

Of course, it is also possible that the external factor of the owner of the island caused Li Qiang to have to deal with it in this way, as for what the reason is, only the parties know.

Li Qiang didn't speak again, but took out two black stones the size of a fingernail from his clothes and carefully placed them on the table.

"What is this?"

Zhang Ping stretched his neck, looked left and right, and didn't know what this unsightly stone was, if it wasn't for what Brother Qiang took out, he really thought it was a black roadside stone.

"Star Blue Motherstone!" Li Qiang explained.

"What!?"

Wu Fan and Zhang Ping were taken aback, they never expected that this inconspicuous black stone was actually a priceless star blue mother stone.

"Of course, this is not a complete star blue motherstone, and there are great flaws in it. Li Qiang said with a smile, if it is really the Star Blue Mother Stone, he is still a pirate here? With the Mother Stone in his hand and countless sub-stones, he could have become a big tyrant on the rich side!

Wu Fan nodded thoughtfully, the value of a piece of star blue stone is acceptable, as long as it is a slightly richer ordinary person, it can be paid, but the star blue mother stone is different, or it is the difference between the clouds!

A fist-sized star blue motherstone is worth as much as a large manor, and if it is exchanged for money, it can ensure a lifetime of food and clothing, and even future generations can be blessed.

The fact that the Poison Fang Pirate can own a piece of Star Blue Mother Stone is also regarded as a treasure, cherished and cared for in every way.

Even a star-blue motherstone with a big nail cover is enough to cause a bloody storm!

Defective star blue mother stone is also a kind of star blue mother stone, but the two are very different, its price is only a little more expensive than ordinary star blue stone, the main reason is that the defective star blue mother stone can not be differentiated child stone.

However, in addition to inheriting the characteristics of star blue stone, the defective star blue mother stone also has other uses, it will only emit blue light when burning, but there is no hot temperature, it can be easily grasped in the hand, easy to carry, is a good lighting item.

"This is for us?"

Zhang Ping looked at Li Qiang with some excitement, even if it was a defective star blue motherstone, it was a rare good thing.

"In a way, I'm going to give it to you. Li Qiang replied vaguely.

Wu Fan was puzzled, he didn't know why Li Qiang answered like this, but before he could ask a question, Li Qiang continued.

"Once I had an unfortunate brother who went into the cave, but he came out alive and brought out two ink stones, and he was covered in bruises and crawled out almost with his last breath. ”

"Covered in bruises? Doesn't it mean that everyone who comes out of the devil's cave is intact......?

Wu Fan was a little incredulous, feeling that this demon cave was becoming more and more mysterious, and it seemed that there was a great secret hidden in it.

"Yes, there must be something unusual in this, and I was full of questions at that time, and asked my brother many times about the reason, but this guy was tight-lipped and wouldn't tell me. In the end, I had no choice but to give up, I couldn't be cheeky and stalk, right? Actually, now that I think about it, I feel that he may have a bitterness that he can't say. Li Qiang sighed.

"However, half a year later, he took the initiative to find me and talk to me about the devil's cave. He said that he should have died in the devil's cave, and the reason why he survived was because he accidentally discovered a secret. ”

"What's the secret?" Zhang Ping and Wu Fan couldn't help but wonder.

Li Qiang said: "That guy just underspoken, spoke slurredly, and didn't explain it to me, let alone mention any secrets, leaving only one sentence 'Only light can dispel the darkness', and then walked away." ”

Is it true that only light can dispel darkness? Could it be that the secret of the cave has something to do with light?

Seeing the two teenagers bowing their heads and pondering, Li Qiang was afraid of misleading them, so he added: "I can't say for sure, after all, I haven't entered the Demon Cave, and even the appearance of the Demon Cave is hearsay, so you don't have to take it to heart." ”

"Brother Qiang, didn't you ask him what he meant by this sentence later?" Zhang Ping couldn't help but ask, Wu Fan couldn't help but look at Li Qiang, waiting for this answer.

It's just that Li Qiang sighed, his eyes were full of sadness, and he said slowly: "He's dead...... Missing, to be exact, but it's been four years. ”

For a moment, Wu Fan and Zhang Ping only felt that there must be something greasy in it, but they were afraid that finding stones was not as simple as it seemed, and the demon cave was becoming more and more mysterious.
