Text Chapter 8 Turtles, Shrimps and Fishes

The simple man said lightly: "Cold Autumn Festival, how much silver is your life worth?"

"Grab the two women on the opposite boat, and I'll give you 300,000 taels of silver!"

The simple man shook his head and said, "I asked how much your life is worth." ”

"Even if I am afraid of you, 100,000 taels of silver will be used as a thank you for saving me today. Grab the two women on the other side, and I'll give you another 300,000 taels of silver. ”

After listening to the words of the Cold Autumn Festival, the simple man and the handsome young woman both showed satisfied smiles.

The simple man said: "Red-sleeved girl, you can take the two people in the water back and deal with them." Leave the two women on the boat to me. ”

The young woman smiled and said, "Brother Shi, which is heavier, the 300,000 taels of silver or the 200,000 taels of silver, my sister still knows." Let's say we don't understand, who can take the big head, each depends on his ability. ”

Before she could finish speaking, the simple man rose up. When the young woman saw this, she also followed. But the two did not attack the woman in white and Bai Qingchi on the boat, but aimed at Dong Ping and the others who were soaked in the river.

The situation on the boat was clear to the two of them in the dark just now, the woman in blue was shallow in cultivation and had the burden of being injured and unconscious, and the two of them would definitely not be able to escape. But Dong Ping is very slippery in their eyes, if they don't take it down first, I'm afraid something will happen.

The moment Dong Ping and Lin Sanchuan saw the young woman and the man get up, they plunged into the water together. The simple man rushed into the water first, and the young woman pointed her toes on the water, but she hesitated. She said secretly: What if she rushes into the water and accidentally soaks her clothes and lets the men around her see it? But she only hesitated to breathe, so she decided to enter the water. But at this time, the simple man suddenly broke out of the water.

Seeing his embarrassment, the young woman couldn't help but tease: "Yo Yo Yo, Brother Shi is afraid that his sister will leave the mountain!"

The man's face was serious, and he waved his hand and said, "There is something strange in this water. With that, he lifted the sleeve on his right side. The young woman frowned at this, and she only saw that there was a fresh wound crisscrossing the man's right arm.

"Did Dong Ping get it?"

"I don't know, but we can't go down any more of this water. ”

The young woman was serious for a moment, and then said with a smile: "If you don't go down, you won't get down, isn't there still 300,000 taels of silver waiting for us?"

The simple man nodded and said, "Yes, but if the friendship between our two families is ruined for the sake of fighting for these 300,000 taels of silver, it is not worth it." It's better for the two of us to divide 150,000 taels each, so that you and I can have an explanation for Yanhualou and Hong Tianzong. ”

The young woman glanced at the bow of the boat, and suddenly shook her head and said, "That's not necessary, my sister can be regarded as a favor for Brother Shi on behalf of the fireworks building today." These two little girls, my sister, I won't fight with Brother Shi. ”

When the simple man heard this, he secretly wondered in his heart, he didn't know why the young woman's attitude changed so quickly, could it be that she had a plan in her heart? You must know that the female killers in the fireworks building are all femme fatales, and they act in a vicious manner. But the simple man was not afraid, in the face of this 300,000 silver at his fingertips, he would not say that he would not want it.

Bai Qingchi held the woman in white with one hand, and a few stone pills in the other, leaning tightly against the side of the boat. She looked at the menacing man, and her pretty face showed a look like she was about to be a great enemy.

The simple man jumped on the bow of the boat, and first glanced at the cabin, which was already trembling with fright, and the passengers were crowded together. There was a hint of disdain in his expression, he would not attack these passengers. As a person of Hong Tianzong, he will only kill his enemies, and those who can exchange bounties after killing.

The simple man approached step by step, Bai Qingchi lifted Shi Maru up, and she shouted with a little lack of confidence: "Hey! Don't you just want silver? He can pay you for your errands, and Miss Ben can pay more...... Higher price!"

The simple man said coldly: "I have known him for several years, and I know that if he sells all his net worth, he can be reluctant

for 300,000 taels of silver. But I don't know either of you, so I'm not sure if you can afford it. ”

Bai Qingchi glanced at Leng Qiujie and said, "If you really know him for a few years, then you should know about his festival with Leng Family Villa." If you tie him up and send him to the Leng Family Villa, you can get hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!"

The simple man pinched his fingers, and after he was silent for a moment, he said lightly: "In recent years, the industry of Lengjia Villa in Jiangzhou has shrunk. With all due respect, the Leng Family Villa can't take out that much silver. Even if the Leng Family Villa can take it out, it will never be paid to the next. As soon as the man's words fell, the stone pill that Bai Qingchi was holding came out of his hand. The simple man waved his hand, and the stone pills were thrown into the river by him.

In a violent explosion, the simple man had already held Bai Qingchi and the woman in white in his hand one by one.

Bai Qingchi kept waving his hands and clapping the simple man's arm, while the woman in white on the other side also woke up faintly. She was still very weak, but she tried her best to put a hand on the back of the simple man's hand.

Suddenly, a layer of frost spread from the back of the man's hand to his shoulder. The simple man's face was serious, and he used his true qi a little to sweep away the frost.

The woman in white said weakly, "You now know what the consequences will be if you capture the two of us......"

"The authentic Nine Shades of Cold Palm Power, the descendant of the Leng Family Villa. It is not good to offend the Leng Family Villa, but if you can't complete the task, it will be even more terrible for me Hong Tianzong. The simple man looked at the handsome young woman standing on the giant tree with a playful face, and probably understood in his heart why she suddenly gave up competing with him for these two girls. She should have seen the identities of these two people.

"Brother Shi, a piece of jade pendant on the girl's waist, my sister can see it on Leng Qiujing, the owner of Lengjia Villa, three years ago. The young woman hid her face and smiled.

Leng Qiujie said coldly: "Yes, she is Leng Qiujing's only daughter." But you don't need to worry too much, if the Leng Family Villa takes revenge, it won't find you. ”

The simple man said lightly: "Take the money to do things, who she is has nothing to do with me." Before he could finish speaking, a sharp sword suddenly rose from the water. The sword was fierce, and the bow and hull of the ship were split in two in an instant. The passenger ship lost its balance and fell on the surface of the river in an instant. Passengers jumped out of the cabin one after another, all swimming quickly to the east bank of the river.

The simple man had already risen into the air the moment the sword rose up. Then, several more knives broke through the water, slashing towards the simple man. The simple man wanted to leap onto the giant tree, but a continuous stream of knives came out of the water, blocking his way. In desperation, he had no choice but to sweep out a leg wind to resist a few swords, and then his body quickly fell backwards, and finally he stood firmly on the wrecked ship.

The simple man secretly said in his heart: "This Dong Ping's cultivation is average, but his sword skills should not be underestimated. ”

Leng Qiujie looked at the simple man who was standing on the wrecked boat not far away, not daring to move easily, and said with a slight smile: "Red-sleeved girl, then Dong Ping is underwater, can you really believe Shi Lan is nonsense, and don't dare to go into the water." ”

The handsome young woman sneered: "Now if I do it, won't it be cheaper for him." It's better to wait for the two of them to fight to an exhaustion, and then my sister and I will do it. It doesn't take much effort to get Dong Ping's head, and it can make him Shi Lanji's sister a favor. ”

Leng Qiujie chuckled and said, "Good calculation." ”

Let's say that although the cold autumn festival and the simple man both call the young woman Red Sleeves, this is not her original name. There are four levels of Assassins in the Fireworks Building, from the highest to the bottom, the White-Sleeved Assassin, the Red-Sleeved Assassin, the Green-Sleeved Assassin, and the Yellow-Sleeved Assassin. Outsiders call the people in the fireworks building, and they all call each other the assassin level.

And that simple man's name is Shi Lan, and he is also an assassin of Hong Tianzong's status. Not to mention the Leng Qiu Festival, he can master the Seven Killing Puppet, which means that he is already a steward-level killer under the Seven Killing Sect. The fact that the three major assassin organizations were able to send these three people to hunt down Dong Ping could be regarded as giving him enough face. Despite this kind of face, don't do it.

Shi Lan stood on the boat, not daring to act rashly. He's now single-minded. First, we must divide our minds to restrain the two women in our hands, second, we must guard against the threat from underwater, and secondly, we must guard against whether the red sleeves on the giant tree will suddenly attack him. Between the distractions of his mind, it was difficult for him to move forward.

Jiangxia was quiet for more than a moment, Shi Lan's mind moved, and he quickly jumped towards the giant tree with the two women. His speed at this moment was extremely fast, faster than the birds that swept by the river. He thought to himself that under his jump, Dong Ping couldn't react at all. When he was still seven feet away from the giant tree, he suddenly felt his feet cold. He looked down and saw that on the instep of his two feet, there were two finger-thick bloody holes. The cold river wind was passing back and forth through the blood hole, and the true qi that Shi Lan had gathered on the soles of his feet suddenly dissipated. At this time, he only felt that his body was extremely heavy, and in an instant, he fell towards the river at great speed.

Let's say that Dong Ping and Lin Sanchuan just swam into the river just now, and Shi Lan chased after them. When the two wanted to fight, an inexplicable edge surged from the bottom of the deep general, forcing Shi Lan up. After escaping, the two wanted to flee for their lives as quickly as possible. But seeing that Shi Lan and Red Sleeves were going to do something to the two girls on the boat, Dong Ping thought that the two girls were killed, and it could be said that they were completely affected by him. Dong Ping felt compassion, so he grabbed Lin Sanchuan and watched the changes under the river. So later, Dong Ping slashed the boat with a knife, and now he used the deflating method to hurt Shi Lan.

At this time, Dong Ping saw Shi Lan falling down and threw the two women out. Dong Ping saw that the situation was not good, he immediately stretched out his palms, and suddenly, two violent suction forces swept out of his palms.

"Red-sleeved girl, help catch the girl in white!"

"I have already said that I will not get involved with the matter of you and the Leng Family Villa......

Red Sleeves didn't finish his words, but he saw two huge whirlpools appear on the surface of the river! A powerful and irresistible suction burst out from the whirlpool, and the woman in white and Bai Qingchi, who were thrown into the air, were sucked into the river by the water whirlpool. The puppet lying on the giant tree was also slid down by the suction that burst out of the water whirlpool, and the cold autumn festival was carried down by the puppet at the same time. Luckily, Redsleeves grabbed him.

Shi Lanben just slapped down twice, and with the palm power that surged up, he would not fall into the river. But at this time, when he saw the two women falling into the whirlpool, he was anxious for a while, and he chased the two and jumped into the whirlpool. Shi Lan originally planned to get the two out of the water, but he didn't think about it, the suction of this water whirlpool was so strong that with his cultivation, he couldn't resist it at all.

Dong Ping didn't expect that he could create such a powerful momentum, he felt as if a thick true qi gushed out from the bottom of the river and blessed his palms. This feeling is like divine help.

In a trance, Bai Qingchi, the woman in white and Shi Lan all fell into the river. The blue light was refracted in the river, and Dong Ping and Lin Sanchuan saw a man and two women floating powerlessly in the water. Dong Ping swam upstream, he hugged the woman in white and put the lips of the two together.

"What do you do......"

Bai Qingchi wanted to say something to stop her, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a large stream of river water rushed to her throat, and she had to hurriedly close her mouth.

"What am I doing? I'm mad at her. ”

Dong Ping said silently in his heart. As long as a martial artist has a certain amount of cultivation, after mastering the method of true qi circulation, he can dive in the water for half an hour. But although the woman in white cultivated quite high, her body was weak and she couldn't get her true qi for a while. When she felt Dong Ping's lips come over, her eyes first showed shame. Then, when she felt a warm airflow coming from Dong Ping's mouth, her expression turned into a faint gratitude.

Lin Sanchuan glanced at Dong Ping and the woman in white who were hugging each other, and then aimed his gaze at Bai Qingchi above his head. But before he could swim upstream, Bai Qingchi kicked on top of his head.

Although Dong Ping has reaped the credit, the water whirlpool on the river has not stopped rotating. Just look at Shi Lan's body like a leaf of duckweed, floating weakly in the whirlpool.

Suddenly, this suction suddenly transformed into a water-type beast. It opened its huge mouth, bit Shi Lan with one mouth, and took it to the bottom of the river. No matter how Shi Lan struggled, he couldn't get rid of the beast's mouth.

In this water beast's body, Dong Ping actually felt a power of the same root and origin as the Eagle Gate Golden Buddha. In order not to miss the opportunity, Dong Ping hugged the woman in white and chased the water beast downstream. Seeing this, Lin Sanchuan couldn't help but grab Bai Qingchi's leg and followed.

Leng Qiujie and Red Sleeves watched the river slowly return to calm on the giant tree.

"Could it be that they are all doomed together?" Leng Qiujie frowned and asked.

"It's weird, there's no blood at all. ”

Red Sleeves had a gloomy face, and now, she could no longer remain unfazed. She was about to jump off the giant tree when she suddenly heard Leng Qiujie whispering, "Be careful!" Red Sleeves looked up and saw a cold light flying from a distance. She drew a soft sword from her waist and swung it into a whirlwind.

In the blink of an eye, the cold light has arrived.

That cold mang turned out to be a long sword!

Red Sleeves slammed the soft sword wrapped in the strong wind on the long sword, only to hear the sound of gold and stone. The sword swirled and flew back. And on the long sword of the red sleeve, there were some cracks.

"It's a sword ruin!

Redsleeves couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes, it's swordsmanship, but it's not a sword ruin. ”

The ethereal man's voice does not stop floating above the river. Suddenly, a tall man stepped on the river, he caught the long sword behind his back, brushed his three-foot long hair, and then held the purple gold Dao crown. Its posture is fluttering, like a drop of immortals descending into the world.

He smiled and said, "In Xia Lu Chunyang." ”

Red sleeves said lightly: "It turned out to be the head of the Eight Immortals who have become famous in Jiangnan in recent years, Lu Chunyang, Lu Daochang." I don't know where the little woman offended the Taoist chief, and she wanted to receive a sword from the Taoist chief for no reason?"

Lu Chunyang said with a smile: "The Poor Dao Flying Sword is not to hurt Your Excellency, but to let the two of you know that the strength of the Poor Dao is far above the two. Poor Dao will ask the two of you a few words next, and I hope you will tell the truth. ”

Red Sleeves said secretly: "What a knock on the mountain and shock the tiger." ”

Lu Chunyang looked at the thoughtful expressions of the red sleeves and Leng Qiujie, and knew that the two of them would know everything about what they would ask next.

"Poor Dao went to Jinling, passing by the Lengjia Villa, so he thought about going to visit the Leng family master. But unexpectedly, the head of the Leng family had already gone to Jinling first. When Poor Dao was about to say goodbye, he was entrusted by the people of the Leng family to ask me to visit the two young ladies who had just run out of the villa. The poor road met several panicked pedestrians, and according to them, they did meet two young women. However, the two young women were captured. On the river of the Poor Daoist Temple, there seems to have been a fight, and the two young ladies of the Leng Family Villa must have been captured here, I wonder if the two of you can tell the poor Dao, where are the two young ladies going now?" Lu Chunyang's speed of speech was extremely fast, and he said these words like a cannon, without stumbling or pausing. He said it clearly, and presumably Red Sleeves and the Cold Autumn Festival heard it clearly.

Red Sleeves smiled and said, "Those two young ladies are now in the river." ”

"Really?"

"Really. ”

"Really?"

"Seriously. ”

After Lu Chunyang asked two questions in a row, he no longer cared about the red sleeves and the cold autumn festival, but puffed and jumped into the river.

Seeing Lu Chunyang leave, Leng Qiujie breathed a sigh of relief, and he urged: "Hurry up, this place can't stay for long." ”

Red Sleeves smiled and said, "It's natural to leave when you go, but the Cold Killer is better to stay here and accompany these puppets of yours." ”

Leng Qiujie understood Red Sleeves' thoughts, and he smiled coldly: "Take me away, the 300,000 taels of silver I promised Shi Lan are yours." ”

Red Sleeves giggled and said, "This is sometimes a task, but you can't do it too hard." You killed the Lord coldly this time, but you were the first to break the halberd. As for Shi Lan, he is mercenary, and now he is unclear about his life and death. As for me, standing right behind you, I have the most benefit. ”

Leng Qiujie sneered and said: "Yes, I think your fireworks building started from hiding under a man's crotch back then." ”

Hearing this, Red Sleeves changed his face and turned his hand to put the soft sword in front of Leng Qiujie's throat.

"Don't think my brother doesn't listen to what he says, without the silver, you won't be able to pay the difference when you go back to the fireworks building. Could it be that the red-sleeved girl wants to be demoted to the yellow sleeves that men ride?"

Red Sleeves had a gloomy face, squatted down and patted Leng Qiujie's face, and suddenly laughed.

"How can it be, I don't know how much to listen to when the cold killer speaks. ”
