110, the tenth mirror of Jiang Xuanche (9)
"Your Majesty doesn't know. ”
The leader of the captives had an idea, took a step forward and said, "This long sword is a pair. Only one of these swords is already a rare treasure, and two ministers can't believe their eyes when they see such a sword. Your Majesty will be able to strengthen the wings of a tiger and make great achievements. ”
When the king heard that there were two swords, he didn't care about the red tape at the moment, so he got up from his seat and walked down.
Jiang Xuanche happened to take a step out of the crowd at this time and stood in front, holding his own saber in both hands.
The captive little leader was right, Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche's swords were indeed a pair. It is the heirloom of the Su family, Mo Xie, and the heirloom of the Jiang family.
According to Lin Ning's eyes, these two swords have some traces of immortal cultivators, and they have not decayed at all after thousands of years, but they have even more hair-splitting, hair-cutting and iron like mud. In this world without aura, this kind of blade can undoubtedly be called a divine weapon.
The king was closer to Jiang Xuanche, and he reached out to grab the cadre Jiang Xuanche was holding.
It was at this moment that a sudden change occurred.
Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche acted as if they had made an appointment, and at the same time, they shot like lightning, and pulled the long sword out of the scabbard with their backhand. In an instant, the room was full of sword shadows, and the cold light was pressing.
Lin Ning's Mo Ye took the Confucian student beside him, but Jiang Xuanche's cadre walked around the neck of the water bandit king lightly.
Confucian Sheng was powerless, Lin Ning succeeded in one blow, and after successfully holding it hostage, he knocked it out with the hilt of his sword.
On Jiang Xuanche's side, although the king had two hits, he was not Jiang Xuanche's opponent at all, and it took a little effort to restrain it.
Lin Ning looked at the Confucian student who fainted at his feet, this Confucian seemed to be the brainchild of this bandit village, listening to what he just said, this small water bandit camp had risen up, established himself as the king, and blatantly rebelled.
In this way, it is not difficult to understand their behavior of burning the boat. I think I want to swear by the act of burning down the official ship.
The head of the water village has been captured, and the crisis has not been completely resolved. Lin Ning asked the boat boss to escort the captured little leader, and carried the token of the bandit king into the camp in the name of patrol and inspection, and chiseled through the bottom of all the ships that could be used.
This is a matter of the ship's boss's own net worth, and he will not be careless. The captive little boss is still waiting for Lin Ning's antidote, and of course he will not be uncooperative.
The rest of the crew disguised themselves as guards to guard the main room, preventing people from entering and leaving the main room at will.
Only Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche were left looking at the unconscious two people on the ground and were relatively speechless.
"This plan was originally the idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, and these two people must not stay. ”
Lin Ning was silent for a moment before saying.
Jiang Xuanche thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I originally wanted to use them to create some trouble for Xiao Wenzhang, but now it seems that their strength is so weak, and their use value is not high." Moreover, when this gang of water bandits set fire to the boat, they did not even let go of the innocent people on board, which shows that they have committed many unrighteous acts. Kill them immediately, so that they do not leave any trouble. ”
With a certain intention, Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche waited for the boat boss and the captive leader to turn around, and killed Confucian Sheng and the water bandit king in front of the two of them.
A group of people set fire to the "Chinese Army Palace", and saw that most of the water bandits in the camp were scattered and fled, and they did not deliberately strangle them, but more than a dozen people broke out of the village from the main house all the way out of the village in a group. The camp was in chaos, and the bandits were busy fighting for their own property and fleeing for their lives, and they did not dare to stop this group of people who were not easy to provoke.
Out of the village, the boat boss had already prepared the only small boat that could sail normally, and could extradite everyone to the merchant ship.
Lin Ning threw a small porcelain bottle at the captive little leader, and the captive little leader was very close to his life, and he followed them all the way out to kill him, so Lin Ning also spoke and gave him the antidote.
"Three times a day, swallow it after meals, and you will be fine tomorrow. ”
The captive leader was gone.
When the boat moved towards the merchant ship that anchored and stopped in the center of the canal, the ship's boss showed a trace of awe, and asked Lin Ning cautiously: "That person doesn't kill, if the news leaks, wouldn't it be bad for Gongzi?"
When Lin Ning heard the title of "Childe", he knew that the boss of the boat had become suspicious of the identities of the two, and suspected that the two of them were not simple people in the rivers and lakes.
Jiang Xuanche beside him heard what he said, and said: "But the villain can't afford to make much waves." It's not worth keeping my friend's promise. ”
Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche glanced at each other, and their hearts were bright. The more practical reason is because they know that the water bandits themselves are illegal, and it is impossible to report to the officials for grievances if they are raised by others.
That person came from a humble background, and he couldn't even touch the edge of the yamen in today's Yanzhou, and he didn't have any background in the rivers and lakes, and it was impossible to know the identities of the two.
If such a person wants to kill, he can't let Lin Ning go, and it won't hinder the overall situation. She is not a murderous person, and she will not engage in the "I said I gave you the antidote, but I didn't say I won't kill you". Put it and put it away.
In the two days since then, the boat has been running smoothly without any accidents, and the captain has changed his attitude towards the two and has become quite respectful. The two also looked more closely at the objects that could reveal their identities, and they got along well along the way.
The origin of the name of the cadre Mo Xie Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche did not mention it to any crew members, and the boss of the ship was not a person from the rivers and lakes, so he couldn't see the magic of these two swords, he only thought that they were sharp blades.
It's not for the safety of the two of them to be so cautious, but I'm afraid that if the news leaks out, the two families in Shengjing will be implicated.
When he got off the boat at Fenglindu in Yanzhou, the boat boss vigorously invited Lin Ning and Jiang Xuanche to his master's house to sit and thank the two of them. The two of them had something to do, so they naturally declined.
The boss of the boat asked the two of them again, saying that they would prepare a gift and come to thank them. When they returned to the master's door, they said that it was an excuse, and the two of them didn't have much of a teacher, so they shirked it, and the Taoist master's order was not enough for outsiders. Then they said goodbye and left.
After a few days of sailing, the horses were a little tired, and they were afraid that they would die of exhaustion after a day and night journey, so they rested every two hours.
"If you want to go to Jizhou, you can't avoid Xiaqiu. ”
Jiang Xuanche swallowed a mouthful of dry food that was getting more and more difficult to chew, and looked at the map road spread on the boulder.
At this time, the two of them were already walking on the official road from Fenglindu to Jizhou, it was noon, and the sun was blazing. It was unbearable to drive passers-by and horses under such a day, so the two simply rested in the woods not far from the official road.
"I'm not afraid of anything else, but I met Xiao Wenzhang at the palace banquet two years ago, and if I see him again, he may be able to think of me, so I must not meet him. Jiang Xuanche frowned slightly.
Lin Ning also took a sip of the water in the water bladder. In ancient times, the level of hygiene and medical treatment was not good, so as long as there was a condition, she must boil the water and cool it before filling it into the water bladder. It's nothing at the moment, but the distance after Liqiu, I'm afraid I can't even drink Liangbaikai.
She sighed slightly and said, "I heard that Xiao Wenzhang enjoys himself in the palace day and night, and he won't go out easily, you and I just need to be careful, but it's just a passby, and I won't meet him." ”
