Chapter 82: Ink that does not melt when it encounters water

"Poof!"

Several skin-piercing sounds came out one after another, and a few inconspicuous small stones have now become murderous weapons, and several water ghosts were immediately overturned, screaming again and again, and they couldn't get up after falling to the ground.

There was a water ghost holding *** in his right hand, and he moved a semicircle from his back, which was strong and heavy, and came towards Xu Ping'an's neck.

This knife is so powerful that an adult man can cut off the entire head of a horse with a slight chop, except for the Mo knife of the Great Heavenly Empire, the knife is almost the most fierce several times, and it is blooming in the grassland.

He didn't hurry and turned sideways slightly, *** passed by his clothes, slashed heavily on the ground, and brought up a spark, especially in this dark night.

Then he raised his knees and changed direction, and the simple action was perfected by Xu Ping'an, and he hit the water ghost alone.

"Smack!"

The water ghost fell to the ground and bent into the shape of a shrimp.

"Who asked you to come?!"

Xu Ping'an snorted coldly, and stretched out his hand to untie the mask of the water ghost, but unexpectedly, another crossbow arrow shot in the distance, and the speed was extremely fast.

He frowned, almost reflexively avoiding the arrow, but still a little bit of green silk was broken by the arrow.

There were still some water ghosts lying in the water of the Ghost Cao River, they were secretly shooting arrows, and when they saw that they couldn't kill Xu Ping'an and the others, they held crossbow arrows and shot them at their companions who fell to the ground.

I didn't think about saving people at all, I only knew how to kill people and kill people.

"Poof!"

Several blood flowers bloomed beside Xu Ping'an, and the smell of blood rushed to his face, making the night of this ghost dock even more permeable, and many corpses could be seen in the light of the fire.

At this time, there was no one left at the Ghost Cao Wharf except for the water ghost and him, and they all fled for their lives.

However, after a long time, Li Ji beat the water ghost with a wooden stick, either he was wounded and escaped into the river, or he was shot by his companions, or he was directly killed by a stick.

Xu Ping'an lifted the mask of the corpse, everyone's cheeks were extremely dark, and their hands were calloused, much like a person who often worked as a coolie on the dock, his hands were decisive and orderly, obviously specially trained.

"Sting!"

He tore off the water ghost's robe again, but this group of people did not have the tattoo of the nine-faced Buddha on their shoulders, obviously not the direct subordinates of the nine-faced Buddha, most of them were similar to Liu Yuan, but they were manipulated by a character on the bright side.

If you want to get more information, you must find the boss behind this group of people, such as Huo Wuguan, Sima Jing, and Ji Chang.

Once he went to the ghost dock, he once again refreshed his cognition of the nine-faced Buddha.

"Childe, all the water ghosts are dead, and those who are withdrawn have been withdrawn. Li Ji came over and said.

At the same time, he took out a note and handed it to him, saying, "This is what I just searched from a master of the inner family, and it is the attack organized by this person." ”

Xu Ping'an raised his eyebrows and opened the note, which only had a simple sentence on it: "Ghost Cao Wharf, quickly extinguish the mouth." ”

There are no signatures and no useful information, only guesses.

He gently put the note on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, the black pen and ink were filled with refreshing sandalwood, obviously an unusual fragrance and ink, such things are generally only useful in the hands of some big families.

In addition, Xu Ping'an keenly discovered one thing, these water ghosts lurked in the river when they came.

It stands to reason that the pen and ink will be diluted and scattered when exposed to water, but these words do not change, as if they had just been written.

Only some precious and rare ink can do this, although he can't say which one it is, but he will know if he takes it back to Yangzhou City and asks someone.

Putting the note in the cuff is a big clue.

The corners of his mouth hooked, and he smiled: "Interesting, interesting!"

"Sima Jing, the second most powerful person in Yangzhou City, Huo Wuguan, who is ranked nineteenth in the Spring and Autumn List, King Kong Lux, and the ghost of Caoshui!"

"These layouts can't be completed without ten years!"

Li Ji Weng said angrily: "Childe, if we go and kill these leaders, it will solve the problem at once, and if you can't find the nine-faced Buddha, you will directly destroy his ten-year layout to him." ”

"When the time comes, the mastermind behind the scenes will jump to his feet in a hurry, and it will naturally collapse. ”

Hearing this, he smiled, it is undeniable that this is indeed a simple and crude method, and the effect can be immediate, but after all, it will cure the symptoms but not the root cause.

"It's not that simple, I used to think that the rebellion of the Cao Gang was the first chaos in the past hundred years, and now it seems that this nine-faced Buddha is not too much, once the momentum is achieved, it is estimated that there will be a great turmoil. ”

Li Ji said: "I heard the master say that the master of the Cao Gang, Helian Baichuan, has reached an unimaginable level of kung fu, at least at the level of a martial arts master, even if the master talks about this person, it is very positive. ”

"If you compare it like this, Childe, do you think this Nine-Faced Buddha will be one of those martial arts masters who are extremely high on the Spring and Autumn List?"

Xu Ping'an said: "It is possible, but the Spring and Autumn List actually only records the vast majority of Jianghu masters, but it is not comprehensive, and many masters have disappeared, and they will change their faces after a period of seclusion, who can say clearly." ”

Before he could say a word, a heavy sound of horses' hooves sounded in the woods behind the Ghost Dock.

Faintly many torches were held high, rising like ghost fires in this dead night.

"Quick, a water ghost has come to the dock to grab the goods!"

"Kill me and catch the water ghosts!"

“......”

A roar rang out, and a team of 100 people was hurrying here.

Not far away, Xu Ping'an saw the appearance of the sergeant through the torch, which was very similar to the dress of the group of officials earlier, it should be a temporary yamen set up by the imperial court at the wharf, which was in charge of water transportation and security here.

Similarly, Captain Chong, who was the leader among those sergeants, also saw Xu Ping'an and the others in the black light, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

The big knife was drawn, the cold flashed, pointed at Xu Ping'an, and scolded: "Who is here, report your name!"

Horses neighed, and hundreds of soldiers were galloping towards this direction.

Xu Ping'an sneered secretly, if he doesn't come sooner or later, he only comes now, as soon as he comes, the fierce light is revealed, and there is definitely something wrong with this leader.

The leader rushed very fast, and yelled: "Protect the scene, count the corpses, and leave those two behind!"

"The people from the government are here, what should I do?" asked Li Ji.

"The guy who works at the Ghost Cao Wharf doesn't have to think about it, there must be a problem, but let the people of the Assassin's Mansion deal with the affairs of the temple, we can only take care of the affairs of the rivers and lakes. ”

After Xu Ping'an finished speaking, he looked at the night that had completely darkened, then looked at the boat on the side of the dock, and said: "Let's go, we can't delay time, we have to rush back to Wulin Wharf to find the merchant ship that transports official salt, it is most likely a conspiracy, King Kong Lux has already gone, and Brother Yu Xun is in danger." ”
