"You. Long Xiaomo was a little angry, and couldn't help but have a seizure.

Qingsi didn't let Long Xiaomo send out the fire, and then said: "General Hou Junji sent me over this time, mainly to be your guide. ”

Long Xiaomo said: "As a guide, I'm not a three-year-old child, is Hou Junji afraid that I will get lost?"

Qingsi said: "Of course you won't get lost. The main thing is to give you some help. When the King of Qin besieged Luoyang, General Hou Junji once sent some outpost spies in the Jiangnan area. But unexpectedly, the emperor later hid King Qin in the snow. However, the intelligence system of the Qin king in the Jiangnan region was still perfect. General Hou thought that you might be able to use it this time when you went to Jiangnan, so he sent me over to pick you up. ”

Speaking of this, Long Xiaomo roughly understood Qingsi's intention. Qingsi is a strong woman, and she deliberately made some noises outside Long Xiaomo's window in the middle of the night to attract Long Xiaomo out, and also to test Long Xiaomo's acuity.

Because the first meeting between the two people was awkward, the cooperation in the following days was not so harmonious.

At the same time that Long Xiaomo and Qingsi were heading south, the Tang army led by Li Xiaogong was also marching towards Danyang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu). Fu Gongshi, who completely tore his face with Du Fuwei, had fully grasped Du Fuwei's power in the Jianghuai area at this time. Feng Huiliang led 30,000 sailors to garrison Dangtu in Anhui Province, and Chen Zhengdao was sent to garrison Qinglin to blockade the Yangtze River with iron cables.

The Tang army has been in the north for a long time, whether it is the war in Longyou, or the hegemony with Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, it relies on powerful cavalry. But this was the first time that the water war was being fought. Therefore, the commander of the Tang army, nominally Prince Li Xiaogong, was actually Li Jing, who was familiar with the situation in Jiangnan.

Unlike Li Jing's goal, Long Xiaomo's direction is Yangzhou, one of the three famous cities. The distance between Yangzhou and Danyang (Nanjing) is not far, and it is still in the hands of Fugongshi at this time.

On this day, the awkward Long Xiaomo and Qingsi came to Gaoyou. In this area, the canal that Emperor Yang of Sui painstakingly dug is still intact. So Long Xiaomo and Qingsi boarded the ship from Gaoyou and prepared to go to Yangzhou.

At this time, as the end of the war was about to start, Long Xiaomo could see that the canal was full of ships transporting grain and grass from Fugongshi. The ship that Long Xiaomo was on was a passenger ship, and there were many merchants coming and going.

Different from the north, where wars are frequent, although the area south of the Yangtze River has also undergone repeated baptism by Xiao Milling, Du Fuwei and other powerful people, the common people can still survive, and the call for peace is very high, and the will to war is not as strong as in the north.

Long Xiaomo also came to the south for the first time, and the customs and habits were very different from those in Guanzhong, and the language communication was not completely adaptable. So Long Xiaomo deliberately fought with these merchants along the way. Often drink together and brag. Unlike Long Xiaomo's active mentality, Qingsi, who was already dressed as a man, kept sitting at the bow of the boat, holding a branch in her mouth, looking into the distance intently.

On this day, Long Xiaomo was bragging and farting with a group of merchants in the cabin, when he suddenly heard a "bang", and the bow of the ship seemed to have hit something.

Long Xiaomo was wondering, when a merchant outside suddenly ran in in a panic and shouted loudly: "Oh no, the officers and soldiers are on board,

Officers and soldiers came to grab things. ”

"What? Grab something, fight with them. The group of merchants who were still bragging with Long Xiaomo just now suddenly pulled out swords and other weapons from under the table, and rushed out with a shout.

Long Xiaomo suddenly stayed in the local area, a little confused. He didn't know that the merchants who called him brothers and sisters had hidden weapons under the table, ready to do it at any time.

Long Xiaomo shook his head and walked outside, it seems that his experience in the rivers and lakes is still insufficient.

As soon as Long Xiaomo walked outside the cabin, he saw a huge official ship lying across the river. It turned out that the loud noise just now was caused by the collision of the two ships.

At this time, the official ship had already set up a plank between the two ships, and a group of troops with bright armor came over the official ship. An officer at the head, wearing Mingguang armor, said with a puffy chest: "On the order of Lord Fu Gongshi, the canal must be strictly blocked, and check whether there are any spies from the Tang Army on the ship. ”

Among these merchants, there was a Gaoyou man named Ah Dong, who had been chatting with Long Xiaomo all the time, but at this time he showed a hideous face and said: "I, do you think I haven't mixed in the rivers and lakes? Do you just want to trick us into getting off the ship, find a random remote place to kill us, and then requisition the whole ship's grain as military rations? Lao Tzu told you, it's not that we don't open face, it's really that Fugongshi is too ruthless, and he wants food and death, so Lao Tzu will stop making peace and fight with you. ”

The officer in the bright light armor said: "His grandmother's is really shameless." Let me tell you the truth, the war ahead is tight, and I originally wanted to arrest you strong men, but since you are so faceless. Then don't go, I've wrapped you in chaos on the river. ”

Long Xiaomo could see clearly on the side, this officer was at the level of spiritual power of the third layer of bone forging, and in the face of these ordinary merchants, it could definitely be regarded as a crushing level of strength. He stretched out his hand from his bosom and prepared to touch a "nail in the coffin" in case of emergency.

The officer had already drawn out the steel knife at this time and slashed at Ah Dong, looking at the knife momentum, Ah Dong must be dead.

With a "whoosh", a long whip flung silently from behind, like a poisonous snake, wrapping the officer's steel knife around his neck.

It was the green silk that shot, and the green silk whip in her hand. She saw Wang Shichong torture and kill her mother with her own eyes, so she hated these bandits in troubled times the most.

But the officer was obviously used to it, holding the steel knife in both hands, constantly struggling outward, and still swearing in his mouth: "Damn, I ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall." Believe it or not, Lao Tzu chopped you into minced meat and roasted wheat?"

"Okay, there's a kind of you going to try. Qingsi jumped off the mast at this time, shaking her wrist slightly. The steel knife that was tied to the officer's neck seemed to suddenly come to life, and the blade suddenly turned inward and stuck on the officer's neck.

"Heroine, heroine spare your life. I'm old and young, and I'm all forced by the chief. Seeing that the blade of his steel knife was stuck in his neck for no apparent reason, the officer was immediately stunned.

"Why didn't you say this when you did it to innocent people?" Qingsi was obviously not interested in the officer's plea for mercy, and with a slight pull in her hand, the steel knife slashed as if it were alive

The knife went inside the officer's neck.

"Don't, don't, don't. The officer shouted loudly, but before the sound could be stopped, his head flew into the sky with a "poof" sound, and a puddle of blood spurted out of his cavity.

"Niang Xipi, I have avenged the chief. The evil officers and soldiers next to him spoke with a strong Jiangnan accent, and rushed towards Qingsi with swords and guns.

The green silk bit her lip lightly, waved the long whip in her hand, and crackled in the crowd of officers and soldiers.

Obviously, there was still a certain gap between the strength of those officers and soldiers and that officer, and they immediately cried and screamed. The whole deck was suddenly crying and screaming.

The merchants, led by Ah Dong, immediately shouted loudly when they saw that the rescuers had arrived. Qingsi waved her whip on the deck, her posture graceful, and her eyes were cold. The square scarf wrapped around his head also slid down in the swing of his body, revealing his long flowing hair. At this time, the officers and soldiers learned that it was a woman who beat them.

These officers and soldiers, who had no power to fight back, could not care about any dignity at this time, and immediately begged loudly for mercy, and shouted one after another: "Auntie and grandmother spare our lives, we will never dare again, no more." ”

But Qingsi didn't spare a hand, and continued to pump towards these officers and soldiers who had already fallen to the ground. These officers and soldiers were not wearing armor, and their bodies were suddenly blurred with flesh and blood.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, female benefactor, even if these officers and soldiers are not good, but the girl's methods are inevitably too vicious, right?"

Long Xiaomo looked up and found a young Taoist in his twenties, standing on the bow of the boat with fluttering clothes, and he really looked like a bit of a bone fairy. Long Xiaomo could see through the Qi Observation Technique that this Taoist priest was the spiritual power level of the second layer of the Jiedan, and he had a fight with Qingsi.

Seeing someone coming forward, Qingsi put away the whip in her hand, looked at the Taoist priest fiercely and said: "I heard that the people in the Daomen are all outsiders, and they should have been happy to take revenge and do the right thing for the sky." I didn't expect you to be such a pedantic bull's nose. Tell me, which sect you belong to, an immortal and nameless ghost under my aunt's command. ”

The young Taoist made a mockery and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the phantom dust under the poor Dao Maoshan Sect is also. ”

Qingsi said: "I heard that the people of the Maoshan Sect are used to pretending to be ghosts, and today I will compare my ability with my aunt and grandmother to see who is powerful." ”

Phantom Chenzi said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the poor road has no intention of passing by here, I don't know why I fought for my life as soon as I came up?"

Qingsi whipped the whip in his hand towards Phantom Chenzi at this time, and said, "As long as you win against me, whatever you say is what you say, and you can only fight with your mouth, then it is nothing." ”

Qingsi's whip method has been passed on by Hou Junji, and the pursuit is speed and speed, accuracy and ruthlessness, and with the blessing of the internal force of the Qingsi Jiedan, it quickly pumped towards the choked throat of Phantom Chenzi.

Phantom Chenzi pulled a sword flower with his backhand, like a daisy blooming in front of him, which could block the way of the green silk whip.

With a soft sound of the "bell", the daisy was pulled apart, and the green silk whip was flicked back. Qingsi took the long whip in her hand with her backhand, frowned, and said, "I can't see it, there is still a bit of a doorway, look at my trick." Ten thousand snakes devour hearts. ”
