Chapter 9, Section 2 Trickery
Xiao Fei was full of joy The cold wind blowing by the seaside, at such a temperature, he didn't have to be so unbearable tonight. After calculating the time, it will soon be ugly, the pirates who were boiling in the old shipyard have long been quiet, except for four or five people who are gathered around the big man in the middle, the rest of the people have looked around for dry wood to sit or lie down, after all, it is already deep, and people are sleepy and need to rest.
Turning around and signaling Fu Bo to appease the restless people behind him, Xiao Fei looked at the field carefully, there was only one big man who looked like a master, according to the brass stick next to him, this person should be the "crazy devil stick" Qiao Wu'er, such an important clue, Cui Baiyu couldn't come and take a look.
Sure enough, after about a quarter of an hour, a group of people and horses walked from the south periphery of the old shipyard, about twenty people, walking the road that the previous gang of pirates had chopped out with swords, after all, when the Xiao family shipyard withdrew a few years ago, the gate had been sealed with a wide wooden strip--- before the Xiao family Qiantang branch came here to hide the ship from the water. When Xiao Fei was ambushing here, he deliberately observed the terrain, got out of the way, and let his men and horses hide in the surrounding bushes.
Seeing someone coming, the pirates in the field immediately got up to guard in a hurry, but Qiao Wu'er recognized the first few people, hurriedly calmed his subordinates, and quickly stepped forward to greet him, "Mr. Cui, you are finally here!"
The person who came was headed by Cui Baiyu, a think tank relied on by the King of Jiujiang, and I saw that he was about forty years old, with a white face and long beard, a light blue long-distance runner, holding a white paper fan, and holding a talented person. The rest of the men each held their swords, and seemed to be guards, but their steps were steady, and they were obviously not ordinary good hands.
"Is it really that ship?" Cui Baiyu didn't have much politeness to his subordinate Qiao Wu'er, and went straight to the point.
"Exactly, Liu San'er's body is also on it. Qiao Wu'er replied respectfully.
"Liu Shan, you go up and have a look. Cui Baiyu commanded, and immediately a dark and thin man with two knives on his back jumped onto the stranded cargo ship with a bang, took the torch handed by the pirate next to him, and bent down into the cabin.
Immediately, Liu Shan's figure appeared on the bow of the boat again, jumped down with a torch in hand, and returned to Cui Baiyu's side, "Sir, it is indeed the corpse of the third child, and he has not done anything wrong." ”
Reflecting the torch in his hand, Xiao Jian beside Xiao Fei couldn't help but be taken aback, and obviously recognized this person, "Childe, it's Boss Liu!"
Boss Liu, Xiao Fei and Xiao Wanlin on the left glanced at each other tacitly in the night, he is really here, this time he can really get the stolen goods!
"What person?!" The person beside Cui Baiyu who was holding his chest with his hands and carrying the long sword suddenly shouted, and with a wave of his arm, a cold light shot towards the hiding place of Xiao Fei and the others!
Fauber dodged the hidden weapon on one side, and reached out to catch it in his hand, which was a one-foot-long hand fork, commonly used by fishermen on the seaside.
Now that he had been exposed, Xiao Fei stood up and walked towards the field with Xiao Wanlin and Fu Bo, and Xiao Jian naturally followed Xiao Fei closely.
Boss Liu Shan naturally knew Xiao Wanlin and Xiao Fu, so he hurried to Cui Baiyu's side and said a few words, obviously telling him the identities of these people.
"Hehe, Xiao Yuanwai, look up for a long time. Cui Baiyu held the fan and bowed his hand slightly, even if there were one hundred and ten people from the Xiao family, but he didn't see any masters, that is, the old servants around Xiao Wanlin had some strength, he didn't look at them in his eyes, and he would cut them down later, put the corpses on the boat, and make the illusion of infighting, wouldn't it be more convincing than Liu San'er's corpse.
"Presumably, Your Excellency is Mr. Cui, a celebrity under the Jiujiang Throne. Xiao Wanlin didn't speak, Xiao Fei stepped forward and asked.
"The eldest son of the Xiao family, Xiao Fei?" Cui Baiyu had also investigated the Xiao family before, and knew who Xiao Fei was.
"It's under the bottom that I don't want a person like Mr. Cui to know a cheap name. Xiao Fei was not surprised by the other party's identity.
Cui Baiyu unfolded the folding fan and smiled lightly, "I have admired my son for a long time." Before leaving, the prince of my family instructed Zai that it doesn't matter if the affairs of the Xiao family can be successful, the most important thing is to invite the son to Jiujiang as a guest. ”
Xiao Fei has helped the crown prince and Leng Qiuhe many times, and with the power of the King of Jiujiang, it is not difficult to find out the details of Xiao Fei, but he didn't expect the dignified King of Jiujiang to be so concerned about him.
Mr. Cui said with a smile, how can he be worried about the prince in Xia. ”
"Hehe," Cui Baiyu shook the folding fan and said a word softly, "Kill!"
As soon as the words fell, he saw the "Crazy Devil Stick" Qiao Wu'er and the previous big man with the sword on his back pulled out his blade and led the pirates to kill Xiao Fei and the others.
The people of the Xiao family have long been on guard, although this Cui Baiyu is a little moody, and he was a little caught off guard at the beginning, but after all, there are many people, more than a hundred people can't beat fifty people, and they still have an advantage.
In particular, Xiao Fu only relied on his palms to resist Qiao Wu'er's brass stick, and Xiao Wanlin also pulled out the long sword at his waist and fought with the man holding the giant sword, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while.
Due to the protection of the masters of the Xiao family, Xiao Fei was left alone, and no enemy could invade within ten zhang of Xiao Fei. But Cui Baiyu also has no opponent, just looking at his means of slapping a second-rate master of the Xiao family in the melee to the side with just one palm, he is indeed a master.
Seeing Cui Baiyu walking towards him leisurely, Xiao Fei casually took it into his arms, and then stretched out his hand, only to see that a thick red smoke was produced within a distance of four or five zhang between him and Cui Baiyu, as long as the people who were contaminated by the smoke, whether it was the hands of the Xiao family or pirates, they could not afford to fall to the ground.
Seeing this, Cui Baiyu fanned the white paper fan in his hand left and right, took a few steps back, and withdrew from the smoke range, not panicking. And Xiao Fei's red mist disappeared completely after just a cup of tea. At this time, he snatched a few Xiao family members from the left side, hurriedly made up for the fallen pirates, quickly withdrew the poisoned personnel to the sidelines, and took out the antidote from his arms for treatment.
"Hehe, Xiao Gongzi is really a master of using poison. Cui Baiyu was not in a hurry when he saw this, and let the Xiao family nursing home rescue people.
Xiao Feiden felt that the situation was wrong, and Cui Baiyu was too calm. Since the Xiao family had prepared and captured them, he should have fled with the pirates, so that Xiao Fei's men and horses on the other side could capture them.
But right now, he actually sent people to fight with his own men and horses, although Xiao Wanlin's master and servant did not fall behind for the time being, Xiao Fei still felt that things were strange, although he couldn't tell where the weirdness was.
"Ah!" only heard a miserable scream, Xiao Fei turned his head to look, and a second-rate master of the Xiao family's periphery on guard suddenly collapsed to the ground holding his neck, blood flowed everywhere before his fingers were slit, and he couldn't survive.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Fei noticed that many people in his side died quietly, all of them were severely injured, and very few people could make a sound warning before they died. And without exception, the wounds are extremely small, extremely lethal, and a fatal blow.
"'Trick killing' or 'hidden killing'?" Xiao Fei asked.
"Young Master Xiao, what do you think?" Cui Baiyu asked rhetorically.
"Hmph, colluding with Fusang bandits, the methods of the King of Jiujiang are really very good. Xiao Fei laughed.
"I want to teach Xiao Gongzi to know that this person is only a subordinate of the 'King of the East China Sea' and has nothing to do with my lord. Cui Baiyu explained with a smile, not caring about Xiao Fei's abuse of the King of Jiujiang.
"Formation!" As Xiao Fei broke off, the Xiao family immediately converged in the direction of Xiao Fei and gathered in one place, with their blades facing outward, making a defensive position, and the killers in the shadows had no chance to attack and kill.
But Xiao Fei still underestimated the hidden killer, and his killing methods opened Xiao Fei's eyes. The people of the Xiao family gathered towards Xiao Fei, and there were always people who were a little farther away, and they would trip to the ground in the process of fighting and retreating, and they would never get up again; or someone was back-to-back with his companions, cautiously retreating, but suddenly the two of them were facing each other with red eyes; or from the dark night, a few strange shaped hidden weapons like a curved ruler flew in, circling and killing everyone, which was really weird.
"Trick kill!" Xiao Fei guessed the identity of the person in the shadows, hidden weapons, poisons, and traps...... really does everything to kill people, and it is worthy of the name of "trickery". Xiao Fei took a few steps back, retreated to the middle of his own group, and watched the battle between Xiao Wanlin's master and servant and Qiao Wu'er and the giant sword swordsman with cold eyes. The person holding the giant sword should be the second protector "Breaking the Waves" Zhao Jianqiu under the "King of the East China Sea" Wang Hai, a first-class five-grade master, but looking at Xiao Wanlin's current balance of offense and defense, he should be able to hold out for a while.
In the duel between first-class masters, Xiao Fei naturally can't intervene at present, but he has his own purpose when he watches it carefully, and he believes that the target of "trickery" will definitely not be the second-rate masters who died, and his target is definitely himself, Xiao Wanlin and Xiao Fu.
Suddenly, the air behind Xiao Wanlin seemed to ripple, and there seemed to be a ghost about to come out in the haze, "It's coming!" Xiao Fei said secretly, and quickly shook the folding fan in his hand forward, and under the light of the fluttering torches around him, a few bits of golden light drilled through the cracks of the people in the Xiao family's camp and shot directly at the open space behind Xiao Wanlin.
"Bell" and "bell" made a few crisp sounds, as if the blade shot down the hidden weapon, and the person in the dark could no longer hide his figure, revealing that it was a white-clothed masked man holding a sword in both hands. Xiao Wanlin didn't seem surprised by the enemy that appeared behind him, the sword in his right hand stabbed directly at Zhao Jianqiu on the opposite side, and his left hand turned into a palm and hit the "trick kill", "Damn rat!"
The cooperation between the father and son of the Xiao family is really tacit, from the appearance of the killer, to Xiao Fei's shooting of the hidden weapon, Xiao Wanlin's palm, the lightning and flint were completed, and the killer's "trickery" was able to shoot down Xiao Fei's golden needle, and Xiao Wanlin's powerful palm came close.
I saw that his body was slapped away by Xiao Wanlin, but he disappeared before he landed. Xiao Fei saw it exactly, at the moment he was hit by Xiao Wanlin, he inserted the knife back into the scabbard behind his back, and when he was in mid-air, the clothes on his body suddenly changed from gray to black, and his body suddenly disappeared into the night!
At this time, the ugly time has passed halfway, the cold fog is gradually spreading from the sea, and it will definitely be unfavorable to your own side if it drags on again, the sea here is too close, and it already belongs to the sphere of influence of the "King of the East China Sea", and it must be resolved quickly!
Xiao Fei glanced at Cui Baiyu, who seemed to have no intention of making a move, turned his head and whispered to Xiao Jian, Xiao Jian raised his hand, and with a "whoosh" sound, he shot a special arrow with the mechanism in his sleeve.
