Chapter 42: Attacked

Recently, however, three brothers with different surnames have joined the bandits.

These three are ruthless and strong in martial arts. As soon as he arrived here, he slaughtered all the original bandit leaders, so that all the bandits were silent, and they did not dare to disobey!

Although they haven't done anything to the passing ships for the time being, it is said that these three people are extremely greedy, and a few days ago they have released rumors that they are not satisfied with what is left behind by passing merchant ships, and they want to re-rule.

When the Jiujiang County Chamber of Commerce heard this, they hurriedly sent people up the mountain again, ready to discuss with the three of them again, but the results had not yet come for a while.

Naturally, the merchants did not dare to take it lightly, and not only did they meet together to cross the Fengling Gorge to make a strong appearance!

Hao Feng released his divine sense slightly, and swept over the group of people standing on the bows of each boat, obviously claiming to be masters, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.

Although he has not yet come into contact with the martial arts masters of this world, these people are at best average, and they are far from the level of the third or fourth layer of his "Mixed Yuan Nine Turn" back then.

Even if he doesn't have internal strength now, and he doesn't use mana, he can chop melons and vegetables at will!

"I don't know if the new leader of this gang of bandits will show up, and what level it is!" Hao Feng was a little vaguely expectant. But immediately he was shocked, "Some water thieves and bandits can't pose any threat to themselves, but the mentality of underestimating the enemy, under any circumstances, must not be!"

The water flow in Fengling Gorge is turbulent. The average width of the river is less than three li, and the narrowest place is less than two li, but it is more than 20 li long. With such a topography, it is really a good place for water bandits and thieves to hang out.

Many merchant ships discussed, and dozens of large ships lined up in three columns to form a column. Hao Feng's boat was assigned to the front.

The steward of his merchant ship was obviously unwilling, but he was helpless. This was a decision made by everyone to discuss the lottery and draw lots, so they had to consider themselves unlucky and organize their own ships to go to the forefront.

I secretly prayed in my heart that it would be better to pay some money to buy the road as before, and I would pass safely.

After entering Fengling Gorge, the atmosphere on the boat became even more tense. The crowd stopped talking, and all the bodyguards stood at the bow of the ship, their hands exposed, their blades clenched. Surrounded by seven or eight young men with long swords on their backs and dressed as chivalrous.

Although these young people's martial arts attainments are not worth mentioning in Hao Feng's opinion, they are definitely masters among these people.

The rest of the idlers also held sticks and stood on the side of the boat to warn. Although he looked a little nervous, he didn't panic too much, and he should often live a life of licking blood from the knife edge.

Hao Feng also stood on the side of the ship, looking at the few young knights who were a little superior, and shook his head secretly.

Although these people are in martial arts, there are only one or two people at most, and they have experienced real life-and-death battles, and their eyes are calm and cold!

Although the rest of the people also looked like they were doing nothing, and even pretended to be relaxed and occasionally chatted a few words, their eyes were obviously a little flustered.

In Hao Feng's opinion, when it comes to real life and death, the combat effectiveness of these people may not be comparable to those guard dart masters who lick blood from the knife all year round.

"Hao Gongzi, Hao Gongzi. ”

Hao Feng looked back, a fat, bearded, but shaved head, a little greasy rough man holding a boning knife in his left hand and a giant kitchen knife in his right hand, was gently dragging himself, and handed the boning knife in his left hand to him.

"Hehe, Brother Sun, I have a heart, thank you!

This person's surname is Sun, he is the cook on this ship, although he looks honest and honest, but he is quite a person, and his heart is not bad, but he loves to brag.

He worked as a cook on this ship as a teenager, and he had a good experience. If you have nothing to do, you will add some exaggerated elements to your own deeds and publicize them everywhere.

When the wine is hot, even the fact that he peeks at a certain widow taking a bath is boasted as a heroic deed!

Some of the old crew members despised him, but some of the new crew members were stunned, and often gathered around to listen to him brag. Hao Feng is naturally one of them.

When he was bragging, Hao Feng asked some casual but just right questions, which often made his heart itch unbearably, and he had a fish stalk in his throat, and he didn't vomit unpleasantly. said that the eyebrows flew and danced, and the spit frothed!

Although the ship's steward didn't like it in his heart, first, this Sun Zhuangcai had been working on the ship for almost 20 years, so he had to give him some face;

However, he also shook his head secretly. I feel that although Hao Feng is dressed a little specially, he talks elegantly, has a calm temperament, and has a generous hand, no matter how he looks at it, he doesn't look like an ordinary person. But he is so interested in these unspeakably elegant country things and anecdotes!

I couldn't help but look down on Hao Feng a little in my heart, and gradually became ignorant of the courtesy from the beginning.

Hao Feng knew it, but he didn't care about it, but often chatted with this Sun Ercai. came and went, on this ship, he was the most familiar with this Sun Zhuangcai, and often secretly gave him some benefits.

This Sun Zhuangcai also has a heart, and seeing that Hao Feng has nothing in his hand, he took a boning knife and handed it to him! Hao Feng naturally thanked him repeatedly!

"Hahaha, I see that Brother Hao is light and agile, and this knife is just used for self-defense. Brother, if something happens, don't stay too far away from me. Don't worry! With my old fortune, this family heirloom bone knife is here, I will ensure that you are safe and sound!"

Seeing Hao Feng take the boning knife, Sun Zhuangcai laughed and patted his chest to protect Hao Feng's safety. It seems to be full of care, looking like hob meat.

The person next to him looked sideways for a while, "Haha, old grandson, don't pee your pants like you did a few years ago, you didn't accidentally spill the soup, and the brothers who hurt you ate wine and rice with urine for more than ten days... Hahaha..."A man with a scar on his face said with a laugh, causing the people on the side to laugh too.

"your grandma, I..."

"Don't make a noise!"

Sun Zhuangcai was furious, cursed, and was about to fight back, but he saw that the people at the bow of the ship all turned their heads to look at them, and the merchant ship steward stared at them even more viciously!

After they made such a fuss, everyone's mood relaxed, and Sun Zhuangcai approached Hao Feng with some embarrassment and whispered: "Brother Hao, don't listen to their nonsense, how can I..."

"I naturally believe in Brother Sun's heroism..."Of course, Hao Feng would not debunk it, and dealt with it in a whisper at will. Suddenly, his expression changed and he stopped speaking, but looked at the cliff in front of Jiangdao.

Sun Zhuangcai didn't know what he meant, and as Hao Feng's gaze looked around, he didn't find anything, but he didn't say much.

Hao Feng clearly knew that there were definitely people on the cliff two miles ahead, and there were quite a few of them.

Of course, this was not what he observed with his divine sense. Since he has already entered the territory of Jiujiang County, and most of the immortal cultivators here are infested, if there is no need, he is not willing to release his divine sense, and the province will cause trouble for no reason!

It's just that if the simple camouflage skills of some bandits can be concealed from Hao Feng's ears and eyes, then his many years of Dragon Shadow warriors will be in vain. When you are on Earth, you don't even have scum left after you die!

However, Hao Feng didn't say much. I'm just a passerby, I don't have to be strong in everything, so as not to ask for trouble!

Accept mustard seeds, hide in the public!

Being low-key in everything is the foundation of your future actions.

At this time, more than half of Fengling Gorge has passed, and the narrowest section is in front. Once you've crossed this distance and entered the wide waters, you're all right.

At that time, even if the bandits wanted to do something, everyone was not afraid, and even if they couldn't beat them, there was no problem in escaping.

The crowd at the bow of the boat obviously didn't notice anything. The expressions of the young people led by several were relaxed, and they even felt that the robbers had already fled when they saw them here, how dare they show up and rob.

couldn't help but be a little complacent, complimenting each other, "I knew this earlier, it would be better to go to Lingdong with my senior brother, I heard that a young master appeared there, but unfortunately, I missed the opportunity to compete again..."

"Yes, yes, I heard..."

"Steward Hong, don't be so nervous, I'm waiting..."

"Yes, yes, it's up to you!" said the merchant ship steward, absent-mindedly coping, his face visibly gloomy.

Although he doesn't have any martial arts, he is experienced in the rivers and lakes and knows that things are not so simple.

Usually, when they arrive here, there will already be robbers who will sound arrows and pass the book, allowing all merchants to pass through and leave them to buy road money. But this time it is almost out of Fengling Gorge, and there is no movement yet, which is not a good phenomenon.

He had walked this waterway for many years, and had personally experienced a great battle between merchants and bandits, and he knew very well the ferocity and belligerence of this gang of bandits. They would never dare to collect even the routine money for buying roads because there were a few young swordsmen and swordsmen in charge.

If it was so easy to deal with, it would have been wiped out a long time ago, so why bother!

At this time, the fleet had completely entered the narrow area of Fengling Gorge! Hao Feng looked at the cliffs on both sides casually, still didn't say anything, but inadvertently blocked in front of Sun Laocai.

Although this is in the other world, whether it is a bandit or a businessman, it has nothing to do with them, they all have their own rules of survival. Hao Feng didn't intend to interfere, and made up his mind that it was none of his business.

But after all, he is an ancient martial arts elite, and his code of conduct for many years has made him absolutely cold-blooded no matter what! At the very least, he can't let this Sun Zhuangcai die in front of his eyes. Otherwise, he really can't accept it.

"Look, there's something ahead!" a merchant ship's dart master suddenly shouted! Everyone was startled and looked at the river road ahead with the voice.

At first, I just saw some things rise and fall, and I didn't see it clearly. But in an instant, it was unobstructed, appearing a few hundred meters away.

I saw a huge tree with thick hugs, the front end was obviously wrapped with sharp iron tools, three or five in a row, almost covered with the narrow river surface, I couldn't see the end at a glance, I don't know how many.

The giant tree was wrapped in sharp weapons, and it was going down the river, and it was fierce! No matter how strong a merchant ship was, it could not withstand such an impact. Not to mention the rest, the first three will definitely be destroyed and killed!

All at once the faces of the people were like earth, and they were in a mess.
