Mu Yongxiao jumped down from the boat and said to Gu Xiaofeng: "Xiaofeng, this time fortunately, you found the signs of piracy early, and sent someone to Yaxian County last night to tell me, otherwise, everyone's losses this time would be more serious." ”

Pi Kaiyuan on the side said: "That's right, this time we dealt a heavy blow to those pirates, and I believe that they will have to wait for a few days before they come to the island to make trouble." ”

Xiaofeng said: "I thank Master for coming to the rescue in time, but I didn't find the pirates in advance, and I didn't send anyone to tell Master." ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "Oh, is it? That's strange, that person found me last night, and he obviously said that you asked him to find me." ”

Xiao Feng said: "But the apprentice really didn't let anyone inform the master, and I just came back from Tongguling, so I encountered this incident." ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "This is strange, is it that someone does good deeds without leaving a name?"

Pi Kaiyuan said: "Master, the apprentice guesses, it may be a hero who did it all the way." ”

"Hey, don't bother to think about it, as long as you can recover some losses. It's a pity that we came late, and several people still died. Mu Yongxiao said.

Xiao Feng said: "Damn pirates, let them escape again this time." We must find an opportunity to completely eradicate them, so as to keep the people of Qiongya Island safe forever. ”

At this moment, a shout came from a small boat on the sea in the distance: "Master, Master." ”

Pi Kaiyuan turned around, looked at it fixedly, and said, "Master, look, isn't that Senior Brother Deng? Why is he here too?"

When Senior Brother Deng's boat came back, Kishimu Yongxiao greeted him and asked, "Deng Xiang, why are you here too, didn't you let you guard Haijiao Villa?"

Deng Xiang cried and said, "Master, something happened. Not long after you left, the West Sea fisherman brought people and took away our Cape Villa. ”

Mu Yongxiao's eyes widened in disbelief, and he asked angrily and anxiously, "What? How can this be? Didn't I let you guard the villa well? How did you keep it?"

Deng Xiang cried and replied: "The fishing tyrant of the West Sea first asked people to pretend to be fishermen and came to the villa to inform them that the fishing boat on the sea had sunk, and asked the disciples to go to the rescue. The disciple was eager to save people, so he led his brothers and sisters to open the gate of the villa and go to the rescue. Unexpectedly, the West Sea fishing tyrant led people to take the opportunity to kill and take away Haijiao Villa. Several brothers and sisters have died. The disciple finally jumped from the back mountain into the sea and came here to report to the master. ”

"That's... Where are the senior sisters and sisters now?" asked Pi Kaiyuan.

"When I left, they were still in the lodge, but they didn't know what was going on. Deng Xiang cried and said.

"Bastard. I'm. Mu Yongxiao scolded.

Yi Dan on the side suddenly realized: "Mu Daxia, it seems that all this should be the collusion between the fishing tyrants and pirates in the West Sea, and they did it together to divert the tiger from the mountain." ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "That's right. I'll just say, why did the fight against pirates go so smoothly today. Since Xiaofeng didn't send someone to report, it must be the West Sea fisherman's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and I want to go back to Haijiao Villa immediately to save people. ”

Yi Dan said: "I know that Ruan Zhilong, a fishing tyrant in the West Sea. I met him when I was in Guangzhou. Although his martial arts are good, he is rude and rude, brave and unscrupulous. In my opinion, this matter should not be masterminded by him, and it is more likely that the pirate leader. ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "That's right, I have seen that pirate leader, his surname is Yang, and he is a person from the Jiaowu Hall in Annan." ”

Yi Dan asked suspiciously: "Jiaowutang?" Mu Daxia, I want to ask one more question in the future, but that Annan Jiaowutang who once produced Huo Ying's vast heroes and Kwai Jie evil heroes?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "That's right, it is the Annan Jiaowu Hall, which also belonged to the Tingfeng Hall in the past. ”

Yi Dan said in surprise: "No, right? Annan Jiaowutang, how chivalrous was he in the rivers and lakes? Huo Ying's vast number of heroes drove Guangzhou back then, and became famous in martial arts. The Aoi Hero assassinated Zhu Wen with You Bailin Hero, and shocked the rivers and lakes. Jiaowutang is a sect with many heroes, why is it reduced to being a pirate now?"

"Well, that's a long story. I don't know why this is the case. However, as the saying goes, there are nine kinds of dragons, and the children are different. The father is a hero, and the son is not necessarily a hero. What's more, this Jiaowutang is attached to the Jinghai Jiedu Envoy, and the change in the attitude of the Jiedu Envoy will also affect their attitude. Mu Yongxiao said.

"That's right, now the Central Plains is in chaos and separation. The princes of the world naturally go their own way and do not serve the Son of Heaven. Pi Kaiyuan said.

"Hey, I really didn't expect that Huo Daxia and Kwai Daxia's master and apprentice were famous all over the rivers and lakes, and they were known in martial arts. Now..."

Mu Yongxiao said to Pi Kaiyuan: "Let's not talk about these things first, without further ado, let's immediately straighten out the people and set off to return to Haijiao Villa immediately." ”

"Yes, in vain. ”

Gu Xiaofeng on the side said: "Master, let the apprentices go with you, one more person will also have one more helper." ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "No, in order to prevent the pirates from going and returning, you still stay in Wenchang to protect the safety of the people here." It's enough for me and your brothers and sisters to go back. ”

Gu Xiaofeng said: "Well, the master is still thoughtful. Alright, Master, you must be safe, and when the matter is done, please bring a letter back to me. ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "No problem, open source, let's go." ”

At this time, Yi Dan hurriedly said: "Mu Daxia, if you don't dislike it, let's go with you, right?"

Mu Yongxiao turned to look at Yi Dan and said, "How is this good? Miss Yi, let's meet in Pingshui, I can't let you take such a big risk..."

Without waiting for Mu Yongxiao to say, Yi Dan grabbed the words and said: "Mu Daxia, where are you talking, the road is uneven, and acting chivalrous and righteous is what our sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes should do." Besides, that fishing tyrant in the West Sea is a ruffian bully, and if we can get rid of him together, it can be regarded as sweeping away a great scourge for the people. You say it's not?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "My Cape Villa is a copper wall, heavy mechanisms, and ten thousand arrows and crossbows, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if I want to capture it myself, I'm afraid it will be a dead death. Aren't you afraid, Miss Yi?"

Yi Danhao said righteously: "If I can die with a hero like Mu Daxia, I Yi Dan will not live in vain." ”

Mu Yongxiao laughed and said, "Haha, haha." Okay, I appreciate the heroism of you, Miss Yi. In that case, let's talk as we go. ”

Yi Dan turned to Xu Gui and asked, "Mr. Xu, I want to go south to Ya County, what are your plans?"

Xu Gui said: "Since Miss Yi, you have to sacrifice your life to accompany the gentleman, then I Xu Gui is a big man, how can I stand by and watch? Although I am not good at martial arts, I will still cure the sick and save people." If someone accidentally says they're hurt, I'm sure I'll be able to do that handy. ”

Yi Dan said: "Okay, let's press this recently, then let's go south to Yaxian County with Mu Daxia." ”

"Okay," Youming and Xu Gui nodded.

Yi Dan said to Gu Xiaofeng: "Brother Xiaofeng, let's go." Please help me say thank you to your mother, I can't say goodbye to her and ask her forgiveness. Also, you have to take good care of your health and lead the villagers to guard the village, so that pirates don't take advantage of it. ”

Gu Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Well, okay, I will, thank you, Sister Yi, for your help." Your great kindness, Xiaofeng is unforgettable. ”

Xu Gui patted Gu Xiaofeng's shoulder and said, "Young man, practice the stick technique well, don't live up to my father's expectations of you." ”

Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Well, I will, please rest assured Mr. Xu!"

After saying goodbye to Gu Xiaofeng, Yi Dan, Youming and Xu Gui, together with Mu Yongxiao's master and apprentice, stepped on the ship that went south to Ya County.

The ship set sail, following only the sea breeze, and headed south at full speed.

Everyone stood on the bow of the boat, looking south, and they all wished that they would arrive at Yaxian County in the next moment.

Yi Dan also looked in the direction of the south like everyone's eyes. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and asked Mu Yongxiao: "By the way, Mu Daxia, I just wanted to take the liberty of asking, how did you know the person from Jiaowutang?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "A few years ago, when Qu Hao, the envoy of Jinghai Jiedu, was still alive, he sent people from Jiaowutang under him to Yaxian to look for me. They want me to join them to take Qiongya Island, and then divide the troops into two ways to go north to attack Lingnan, and finally realize the grand ambition of winning the Central Plains. ”

Yi Dan asked, "Is it? But I've also heard that Qu Hao did have such ambitions in the past, but what about later?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "Mu Mou, I have long been accustomed to a free and easy life, and I don't want to provoke a fight. He made the people of the world suffer, so he did not promise them. ”

Yi Dan asked, "Wouldn't they be angry if you rejected them?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "That's right, at that time, Ma Buwei, the hall master of the Jiaowu Hall, was indeed very disappointed. However, Yang Tingyi, the junior brother who came with him, looked very happy. He also told me separately that his master, Qu Hao's son Qu Chengmei, had always disapproved of his father's plan in private. Qu Chengmei just wants to be in a corner and be a free and easy king of Annam. ”

After hearing this, Xu Gui said: "Yes, that Qu Chengmei does mean this, so in order to oppose his father's plan, ten years ago, he did not hesitate to send someone to Qiongya Island and killed my father who was in retreat here. ”

Mu Yongxiao asked in surprise, "May I ask who is Mr. Xu Lingtang?"

Xu Guidao: "My father was originally a pharmacist Xu Chongwei of the Knife Grinding Gang, and he came to Yazhou to retreat and think about it ten years ago, and Qu Hao sent someone to find him, and he also wanted him to help and seize the world together." My father's idea is the opposite of that of Wood Daxia. It is precisely because he can't bear to see the chaos in the world and the suffering of the people. I want to end the strife as soon as possible and return to unity. So he agreed to Qu Hao's request. But I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."

Speaking of this, Xu Gui was so choked up that he couldn't continue. So Yi Dan continued: "I didn't expect Qu Hao's son to be a loser, so he didn't agree with his father's intentions, and even sent someone to poison and kill Mr. Xu's father." That's the way it is. ”

Xu Guidao: "That's right, poor my father, he actually gave his life in vain because of the disagreement between their father and son of the Qu family. It's really unjust to think about it. ”

Mu Yongxiao listened to Xu Gui's words and said: "The world has always been like this, the master you are working hard for, maybe he is just trying to satisfy his own selfish desires." Whether it is unified or divided, it is their own selfishness, and they have never considered it for the people. ”

Xu Guidao: "What Mu Daxia said is very reasonable. However, I believe that the affairs of the world also need to be solved by the people of the world. Naqu Seungmi assassinated Zhongliang and sabotaged her father's plan, wanting to use this way to cut off the king forever. Not only will he not be able to keep his official position in this way, but he may even lose his life in the end. Jiaozhou is not only the Jiaozhou of Jiaozhou people, but also the Annan of the people of the world. It was bought by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Guangwu of the Later Han Dynasty with the blood and lives of tens of millions of soldiers. Most of the gate valve nobles there moved south from the Central Plains. They have enjoyed the lordship and wealth granted by the imperial court for generations, not only do they not think about retribution, but they also take advantage of the weakness of the country to bite back and divide the world. Regardless of whether he will succeed or not, he will always be a sinner in history, and he will be scolded by thousands of future generations and will be stinking for thousands of years. The more Xu Gui spoke, the more impassioned he became. Hearing this, Yi Dan was also in awe of him.

"Mr. Xu said it very well, but Mu Daxia is also right. These people are all for their own selfishness, and they have never thought about the people. Yi Dan said.

Mu Yongxiao said: "Oh yes, I remembered, just now Mr. Xu, you asked Xiaofeng to practice the stick method well, presumably his stick method should be taught by your father, right?"

Xu Guidao: "That's right, my father taught him on Tongguling Mountain ten years ago. ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "I saw that Xiaofeng's stick method is broad and mysterious, and it is endlessly changing. It can be said that it is the best in the stick method, but it's a pity that the kid only knows how to use a heavy stick to make brute strength, and has not yet understood the essence of the stick method. ”

Xu Guidao: "That's right, that's the Southern Shaolin Tiger Stick Method created by the ancestors. As the head of the wood said, it is vast and mysterious, and it is endlessly changing. Xiaofeng Daxia is still young, and it is difficult to understand it for a while, which is also reasonable. However, he learned from my father once, and it is not easy to practice like this. ”

When Mu Yongxiao heard this, his eyes lit up, and he asked: "Nan Shaolin's method of beating the tiger stick?" I didn't expect that Xiaofeng, this kid, was really blessed, and he actually learned the Shaolin martial arts that were not passed on. ”

Xu Guidao: "That's right, this is also because of Xiaofeng's relationship with his ancestors, which is a long story." If you have a chance in the future, you will talk to Master Mu in detail. Shall we plan it now and what will happen after we arrive in Yaxian County?" asked Xu Gui after a while.

Pi Kaiyuan said: "That's right, Master, we have to plan well, how to recapture Cape Villa when we go back in a while, right?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "Well, let's get a pen and paper." ”

The apprentices gave pen and paper, and after Mu Yongxiao drew in circles on the paper with a pen, he pointed to the drawn picture and said to everyone: "This is the topography map of the villa, which is built on a mountain close to the sea, sitting south and facing north. The north is positive, condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are 10,000 arrows and crossbow arrays, I'm afraid we can't attack it. ”

Yi Dan asked, "Then what should we do?" ”

Mu Yongxiao said: "To the south behind the villa is the cliff and the sea. In the cliffs below the sea, there is a secret passage that leads to a well in the backyard of the lodge. After a while, I will first pretend to attack the front, and you will lead a few disciples to dive into the secret passage from the back cliff, and then enter the backyard of the mountain villa from the secret passage, looking for an opportunity to lift the Ten Thousand Arrows Crossbow Array. When the time comes, we can cooperate with the inside and outside, unknowingly, take down the fishing tyrant of the West Sea, and recapture Haijiao Villa. ”

Pi Kaiyuan asked, "Master, I've been in the Tianya Sect for so many years, why didn't I know that there was a secret passage in the village?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "This secret passage was dug and built by the ancestors when they came here, and it was originally used for evacuation in case of emergency. Because I've never used it, I haven't told you about it before. ”

Pi Kaiyuan said: "That's great, this is simply a foolproof strategy, I believe we will be able to retake Cape Villa." ”

At this time, Mu Yongxiao lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Pi Kaiyuan asked, "What's the matter, Master, this strategy is so good, why are you still worried?"

Mu Yongxiao said heavily: "Your senior sister and junior sister are still in the village, I don't know what their situation is now?"

Yi Dan said: "Then Ruan Zhilong will definitely threaten us with Mrs. Zun and Ling Ai, let's throw a mouse trap, I am afraid it will be difficult to take care of it." Wood Hero, you're worried about this, aren't you?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "That's right, that's exactly what I'm worried about. If my wife and daughter were hurt by this, it would be more than worth the loss. ”

Pi Kaiyuan said: "Then what should I do, Master?"

Mu Yongxiao said: "I only ask your junior mother and sister to be safe, if the Xihai fishing tyrant hands over her mother and daughter safely, I can also give him Haijiao Villa." I hope all he wants is this villa. ”

Yi Dan thought for a while and said, "I think this matter is a bit complicated, then Ruan Zhilong shouldn't hand over both Mrs. Zun and Ling Ai so easily, because this is his only bargaining chip." ”

Pi Kaiyuan said: "Miss Yi is right, let's think about it in the long run, Master." ”

Mu Yongxiao scratched his head and said, "I'm in a mess now, and I don't know what to do." ”

Yi Dan said: "Mu Daxia, no matter what, we must save people." Let's do everything possible to rescue people first, as long as Mrs. Zun and Ling Ai are safe, the rest of the matter will be easy to solve, do you say?"

Pi Kaiyuan said: "Well, Miss Yi is right, let's see the opportunity to act." ”

"Well, that seems to be the only way to go. Mu Yongxiao said.

Everyone nodded in agreement. (To be continued.) )
