The black tiger is also a person who has seen big winds and waves, and immediately knows that he has kicked the iron plate. But in the face of the temptation of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, greed triumphed over reason. Screaming: "Let's go up together, chop this kid!"

More than a dozen of his men took out their blades from their bosoms and surrounded them. The group battle clouds don't care at all, not to mention that this group of water bandits is not proficient in martial arts, at best they are just ordinary people with great strength.

The cloud is not even useful for Xiaoyao Fist, but he shuttles through the crowd with his agile body, and from time to time he punches and fingers, but the internal force is sneering, and the middle one will inevitably vomit blood and throw it away. After a few rounds, more than a dozen bandits were all knocked to the ground, and they didn't even touch the corners of his clothes.

At this time, not only the black tiger, but even Lao Chen and other crew members were dumbfounded. After many days of getting along, I didn't know that this usually gentle young man had such a lethal power.

Seeing the clouds casually walking towards him, the black tiger's face was sweating, but at this point, there was no way, so he had to pull out his dagger and rush forward with a wild scream.

As the leader of the water bandits, the black tiger still has some martial arts foundation, but it is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the clouds. In one round, he grabbed the wrist by the cloud and sent the dagger into his own lower abdomen. The black tiger screamed miserably, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Shaoxia spare my life! I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, please let me go as a fart!" After speaking, he took out a silver ticket from his arms and held it high above his head and asked for mercy again and again.

Yun picked up the silver ticket and put it back into his waist and said in a deep voice: "Get out! Don't do evil again, or I will be killed if I touch it!"

"Thank you, Shaoxia! Thank you, Shaoxia!" The black tiger quickly kowtowed and stood up, and he didn't care about his companions and wanted to leave. Suddenly, the top of his head and chin were buckled, and then a huge force came, and his neck was broken with a click. Before he died, the black tiger was still a little puzzled, why was he facing the clouds, but suddenly turned his eyes and saw a dry old man standing behind him?

Naturally, it was Zhu Jiuye who made the move, and Yun Yun had already found out that he was standing by the woods, but he couldn't understand why he broke out and killed people even though the matter had been resolved.

Zhu Jiu glanced at Yun contemptuously and said, "The kung fu is good, but the experience in the rivers and lakes is too poor! Can these people be released? Not to mention that they are all wicked people with blood on their hands, if you fall into their hands, you will inevitably be wiped out afterwards." is to use their identity as water bandits, let them go today, and tomorrow they will attract a large number of water bandits to besiege them. Even if you get away with it, the whole sea and even the Woko will know that you are a person. In the future, as long as you appear, you will be noticed all the time, how can you trade with people? Hmph, the kindness of a woman!"

Then he turned his head to look at Lao Chen and the others and asked, "Can they all move?" If they can move, they will tie these people to stones and sink them into the sea. After speaking, he didn't care about the water bandits on the ground, ** begged for mercy, and left without looking back.

Yun knew that what Zhu Jiu said was the truth. But he really couldn't do anything about killing the prisoners, so he could only look back and look at Lao Chen inquiringly. After getting the gaze he could handle, he left first.

Half an hour later, Lao Chen returned with the crew. Everyone didn't speak, just silently dealt with each other's injuries. Obviously, although the fishermen are fierce and fights often occur, they are still very psychologically stressed about killing.

Early the next morning, everyone left early and headed for the designated sea area. Although most of them have injuries that affect their movements, after all, they are all flesh injuries and do not need to recuperate, so they all hope to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

For the next two days, the clouds completely lost their direction, and the surrounding area was full of water. The excitement at the beginning has passed, and I am practicing in the cabin with peace of mind.

That morning, Lao Chen ordered the anchor. After informing Zhu Jiu and Yunyun, he untied the small sampan dragged behind the boat and rowed the two of them into the distance.

For two hours, a big ship appeared on the horizon, Zhu Jiu took out a piece of metal and shook it three times in the sunlight, and in a moment, the big ship also responded three times with the same light. Zhu Jiuyi waved his hand, and the sampan moved closer to the big boat.

When I got closer to the clouds, I saw that it was an ironclad ship, with a length of more than 30 zhang, a width of 20 zhang, and a height of about 3 zhang. There were ten oars on each side of the ship, and the masts seemed to be foldable, now down. There are dozens of hollows on each side of the ship, which should be places where cannons or arrows can be placed. The iron armor has a dense knife and an awl-shaped iron skewer, which looks like a big hedgehog.

As soon as the boat approached, a suspension ladder was lowered on the side of the ship. Someone was screaming something, and Yun didn't understand a word, but it was obviously greeting them. Jiu Ye casually said a few words and climbed the suspension ladder with the clouds, while Lao Chen stayed in the boat.

Sure enough, a group of Japanese people surrounded him and greeted Jiu Ye with a smile, obviously very familiar. At this time, a middle-aged man dressed as a Han separated, and everyone walked up, and they shouted with a smile: "Ninth Master, my old friend, long time no see!"

Zhu Jiuyi changed his indifference in the past, and said with a smile: "Yokota, why did you come in person?"

The middle-aged man known as Yokota hurriedly walked a few steps and held Zhu Jiu's hand and said, "I heard that this is the last time you come to trade, so I have to come to see you." You know that I don't have many friends, and you are the only one in Daming, I don't know when the next time we meet!" After speaking, there was a natural trace of melancholy in his eyes.

Zhu Jiu was also very moved, and said with a smile: "Don't say so much grievance, it's like life and death." If you want to come to the Central Plains, I am welcome at any time, and I will also go to your lair to see you when I am free, maybe one day Lao Jiu will go to you if he can't get around!"

Yokota laughed: "Come on, I prepared your favorite sake, let's drink two glasses." ”

Coming to the cabin to sit down, Yokota pointed to the clouds and asked, "Who is this little friend?"

Zhu Jiu hurriedly introduced: "He is Yunyun, the person who will replace me, and he will be in charge of the transaction in the future." ”

Yokota looked at Yun up and down, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's a young talent, Yun Jun, please take care of it!"

At this time, Yun Yun was also looking at the legendary leader of the Japanese people, and saw that he was in his forties, and his fair skin was not rough from long-term wandering at sea. There is always a smile between the nose and mouth, and the eyes are easy-going and sincere, and the first impression gives people a very friendly feeling.

Hearing Yokota speak to himself, Yun hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Yokota senior, junior Yun." ”

Yokota waved his hand: "Don't call me senior, it's too shengfen!" I have been friends with Lao Jiu for many years, if you don't dislike it, just call me Uncle Yokota." ”

Yun hurriedly agreed. Zhu Jiuye said with a smile: "Yokota is easy-going and prefers the culture of the Central Plains. He usually wears Hanfu and speaks standard Chinese, and Xiaoyun has the opportunity to collect a few poems, calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings to bring to him, and he is happy!"

Yokota smiled and said, "Yes, maybe it's because my mother is Han, and I also have half Han blood. So I have been yearning for the life of the Han people since I was a child, but I have not been able to do so because of life. By the way, Ninth Master, last time you brought a letter saying that the transaction was changed, I don't know why?"

Zhu Jiu Zhengse said: "You haven't left the sea area for a while, right? So the news is blocked! The imperial court has already made up its mind to rectify because you Japanese people harassed the coast, burned, killed, plundered, and robbed merchant ships. It is said that I will inform you shoguns that they will jointly encircle and suppress the Shogun, and blockade the coastal defense to crack down on smuggling. We have a great river alliance tree, and we can't go against the wind, so as not to fall into the truth. I couldn't give up huge profits, so I thought of using a middleman to trade on my behalf to reduce the risk. ”

Yokota slapped the table angrily when he heard this: "It's all Kojiro's stupid and bad things, I told him a long time ago, I can't stiffen the relationship with Daming." If you want to make money, you can only be mutually beneficial, as long as you don't do too much, the court will turn a blind eye. But he didn't listen, saying that doing business requires capital, and the risk of sea transportation is high. In the past, the Ming Dynasty was busy solving the remnants of Meng Yuan's party, but now he has withdrawn his hand and made up his mind to rectify the coastal areas.

Zhu Jiu sighed: "It's too late to say anything now." The imperial court will soon send sailors to clean up and sweep the coast, and Kojiro will bear the brunt of it. But your nest is off the coast of Japan, and with your local connections, it will definitely be affected, but the damage is still manageable. But you have to be careful of Kojiro, his foundation is in the coastal area of the Ming Dynasty, and if he is hit, he will definitely shrink, so that he will retreat to your territory. The two of you have been at odds with each other, and friction will inevitably arise. That guy has a ruthless heart, and you have to beware of him suddenly turning his face. ”

Yokota said proudly, "What kind of thing is he! a ronin who has lost his master." I have family support, how can I be afraid of him! Okay, don't talk about these troublesome things, we won't get drunk and return home today!"
