Chapter 221: Bandits on Dongting Lake

"Then what if we really can't wait?" Tang Tang said suspiciously, "We won't, we'll be spending time on this ship all the time." ”

Murong Yu said calmly, "That's not it, judging from the recent situation, within three days, this group of bandits will definitely appear, you don't have to be in such a hurry, you can be safe, don't think so much." ”

Tang Tang said impatiently, "Forget it, just wait, you said so, anyway, it's all come to this point, what else can be done." I'd better go out for a walk first, it's too boring to stay in this cabin, I guess I'll die here before I can wait for the bandits. After a pause, he continued, "Brother Yu, do you want to come with me and go out to have a look?"

Murong Yu snorted, and after staying in the cabin for a few days, he also wanted to go out and have a look, "Okay, I'll go out with you to have a look, just by the way, to see the beautiful scenery of this Dongting Lake." ”

The three of them exited the cabin and went above deck.

At this moment, above the deck, a man who looked like a scar-faced captain was looking around on the deck with a scimitar in his hand.

Not only him, but even the helmsman of the ship, with weapons in hand, stood in all directions, as if he was worried that something big was about to happen.

Of course, there are inevitably a few helmsmen who are sitting on the deck gambling to pass the time.

Seeing this scene, Tang Tang opened his mouth in confusion and asked the person dressed as the captain, "Master Liu, how did I find out that you seem to be a little nervous in the past two days? Is there something going to happen?"

Liu Ye saw that everyone came over, and said to a few people very politely, "Murong Gongzi, how did you come out at this time, this is already the place where the water robbers of Dongting Lake gather, there are a lot of water bandits, if you are not vigilant, you may be besieged by the water bandits at any time." Although no one dares to provoke the name of our salt gang in the waters of Dongting Lake, the imperial court is about to fight with these water bandits recently, and traders are not allowed to trade with water bandits in Dongting Lake, and now these water bandits have no business to do. As for whether it will sell the face of our salt gang again, it will be difficult to say at that time. ”

When he said this, he didn't sound false, and he was extremely sincere, "If it weren't for the generosity of Murong Gongzi, we wouldn't be willing to take the risk at this juncture to run this errand, this is simply a day of licking blood from the knife." ”

"You old man, you are so hypocritical. Before Murong Yu could speak, Tang Tang scolded with a smile, "You damn it, this is cheap and good, this son these days, just losing to you is much more than the boat fare, maybe you can't earn it for a year's sailing." ”

Liu Ye was not angry with Tang Tang, but he smiled and said slowly, "Childe is polite, the clothes of Childe add up, a few have as much as ten thousand gold, and where do you care about this thing, don't make fun of my old Liu." ”

The rest of the helmsmen, when they heard Liu Ye say this, immediately laughed.

Murong Yu looked at Tang Tang with a smile, "Little brother, be respectful to Liu Ye, Liu Ye is also a famous senior in the rivers and lakes, I can't allow you to talk nonsense here, otherwise, I won't take you out next time." ”

When Tang Tang heard Murong Yu say this, he naturally knew that what he said was a little inappropriate, and hurriedly apologized to Liu Ye, "Master Liu, what the kid said just now was not light or heavy, and please don't be strange to Liu Ye." ”

Liu Ye said to Murong Yu, "Childe is polite, Tang Gongzi can call me Lao Liu like this, he really looks up to me, and Childe doesn't need to take it to heart." ”

Murong Yu was just about to answer, but at this moment, a helmsman's panicked shout suddenly sounded on the deck outside the cabin, "Master Liu, Master Liu, come and see." ”

When Liu Ye heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he suddenly turned a little red, and he couldn't care about Murong Yu and the others beside him, and hurriedly ran towards the deck.

The helmsmen, who didn't care about continuing to gamble, hurriedly received the broken silver in front of them into their arms, picked up the weapons placed beside them, and rushed out.

Murong Yu frowned slightly, and there was also a burst of ecstasy in his heart, "Finally wait for the water bandit to appear." After immediately looking at Tang Tang, he just nodded slightly.

There are some things that naturally don't need to be deliberately told to explain, and Tang Tang naturally knows how to do it.

Liu Ye quickly ran to him with a scimitar again, and looked at Murong Yu with an ugly face, "Murong Gongzi, there are Dongting water bandits surrounding us, or ...... Do you want to take shelter in the cargo hold first?"

Murong Yu was puzzled, "If they want to search the ship, even if I stay on this deck, what's the difference between hiding in the cargo hold, it's not the same as they will find out?"

Liu Ye was a little embarrassed, but he also opened his mouth to explain, "Murong Gongzi, if you look like you are dressed in brocade clothes and jade belts, if you are seen by this group of water bandits, I am afraid that you will be treated as a fat sheep." Now, there is no light in the darkness of this cargo hold, and they are only going through the motions, as long as they are given some broken silver when the time comes, they will not look so closely. ”

"Okay then!" Murong Yu was slightly stunned, but he didn't refuse, so he nodded, and agreed to Liu Ye's statement.

Liu Ye led a few people to the cabin, stretched out his hand to open the lattice leading to the lower cargo hold, and several people climbed along the wooden ladder towards the cargo hold in turn.

After watching Murong Yu and the others get into the cargo hold, Liu Ye hurriedly closed the door of the cargo hold, and ran to the deck with a scimitar.

As soon as Liu Ye arrived on the deck, he saw dozens of small boats coming out of the reeds on both sides, getting closer and closer to their ship, and they were besieging it from all sides.

The chopping hands on the ship were all solemn and solemn with swords in their hands, and they were not afraid of this situation at all, obviously, they had long been accustomed to this situation.

"His grandmother's!" Liu Ye suddenly spat angrily again, "It's Yang Mi's subordinates, brothers, polish all the tricks for Lao Tzu, no one is allowed to do it privately without my order, otherwise, if you become the knife ghost of this group of guys, don't blame Lao Tzu for not telling you in advance." The voice was extremely serious, without any jokes.

One by one, his subordinates heard Liu Ye's orders, and they knew the seriousness of this matter, so they dared to take it lightly, and hurriedly responded, "It's Liu Ye." ”

Liu Ye's eyes swept coldly over the ship, his expression was solemn, and then he arched his hand to the front ship and said, "I don't know if you are the brothers, who are in charge?" Liu Dayou on Jiangnan Road in Xiayan Gang, passing through your land, I hope that you can give your brothers a face, make way for your brothers, and your brothers will come to thank you in person another day." ”

A bearded man walked out of the boat, with a somewhat strange footsteps, which made people feel extremely arrogant, and not only that, but even the boat swayed with his footsteps.

It seems that the kung fu of the person who came to the body is not weak.

Otherwise, there would never be such a thing, although this ship looks small, it weighs almost a hundred catties, and ordinary people can't shake it, just to shake it is a rare thing.

The man with a beard on his face looked at Liu Ye with an arrogant expression, "You are from the Salt Gang, the owner of this ship?"

Liu Ye nodded, "Exactly, Liu Dayou on Jiangnan Road in the Xia Yan Gang, please be in charge of the family, and give it a convenient time." The tone was extremely respectful and polite, and he took off the money bag in his waist and threw it at the person who came.

The person who came took the money bag, shook it in his hand, and said disdainfully, "That's it?"

Lao Liu said with a smile, "Please forgive me, please see the face of my salt gang, it is convenient, and Liu will personally make up for the master." ”

"Hahaha!" the visitor replied disdainfully, "What if you are a three-year-old child? When you come back to make up for Lao Tzu, even if Lao Tzu can still meet you, I don't know what tricks you will come up with next time?"

After a pause, he threw the money bag in his hand into the hands of the water bandit on the side, and then he waved his hand and said loudly, "Give it all to me, and move everything that can be moved down for me." ”

As soon as the words fell, the water bandits who were waiting solemnly around them hurriedly put the prepared wooden planks on the merchant ship, threw the flying claws in their hands, and then swarmed up.

This time, the face of the Salt Gang doesn't seem to be of much use to this group of Dongting Shui Kou.

Obviously, this group of people is not buying their account either.
