What is Jianghu?
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
As the name suggests, it is like the rivers and lakes, with fish, lobsters and crabs in them. The situation in the world is nothing more than big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating shrimps. If you want to avoid being eaten, you can only turn around and eat others, and then strengthen yourself.
There are even more hatreds in this world; there are three religions and nine schools, black and white, green forest and powerful forces. Due to grievances, hatreds and interests, all the forces interweave into a big net, which catches others and catches oneself. In the end, only those who can escape unscathed , very few.
Looking at the vast world today, "Excalibur Villa" is the leader of the White Path, "Peacock Villa" is the giant of the Green Forest, the "Money Gang" commands one side and is the overlord of the underworld, and the "Blue Dragon Society" is mysterious and includes three religions and nine streams.
However, besides this, there is another force.
It's the waterway.
On the canal, a large ship breaks the waves.
Snowflakes were falling between the sky and the earth, and Li Muchan stood on the bow of the boat, overlooking the blue waves under the boat.
As soon as I saw the waves of ink curling up, corpses with different forms of death emerged one after another from the originally calm water surface. Some had already been swollen and turned white, some had been eaten by fish and shrimps, and some had white bones. They were mutilated, missing arms and legs, and had been dead for a long time.
"It seems like they are from the Five Great Sword Sects and the Divine Sword Villa."
"There are also those from the Blue Dragon Club."
Tie Eryan looked surprised and doubtful.
Nowadays, there are many killings and robberies on land. People from all sides are running around, and people are bleeding and dying every day and night. It can be said to be extremely dangerous. The Grand Canal runs through the north and south, so it has naturally become the main route to the south.
Just after crossing the Yellow River, the further south you go, the more corpses there are on the waterway, and it is obvious that fighting has begun.
A group of people were also on full alert at this moment, paying attention to the bow, stern and underwater movements of the ship.
Elder Tie Er reminded in a deep voice: "Sir, be careful. This waterway is not as good as the land route. If you are attacked on the shore, you can still dodge and move around with your body skills. But once you are dragged into the bottom of the river by an underwater master and wrapped around you, no matter how powerful the master is, I will also drink my hatred on the spot.”
"That's right," King Miao Tian also made a low hoarse voice, "These masters in the waterways never fight alone with others. They all have excellent water properties. Once they enter the water, they are like a tiger with added wings. Don't underestimate them."
Li Muchan put his hands in his sleeves, carrying a hand stove. He thought he had been standing for a while. There were a lot of snowflakes falling on his shoulders and head. He smiled slightly when he heard this: "King Miao likes silver very much?"
King Miao Tian was startled, then grinned and said: "Young master, you are joking, who in the world doesn't like silver? This is a good thing, and whoever says he doesn't like it, I will cut out his tongue and drink it." "
This man holds an astonishing nine-foot-long sword in his hand. The armor-clad figure looks tall and burly, but hidden inside the armor is a short dwarf.
While talking, this man would occasionally glance at the goddess of bliss beside him, his eyes flashing, and he said: "Aside from money, Miao also likes women."
Li Muchan did not answer his words, but asked curiously: "Who is the most powerful person on this waterway?"
Elder Tie Er lowered his eyebrows and lowered his hands as he accepted the words: "Of course it's the 'Seventh Death'."
Li Muchan asked: "Do you want to kill Lao Qi?"
King Miao Tian smiled and said: "This is his nickname. There are rumors in the world that if you want to make a living on the Jianghuai waterway, you don't need to know the emperor's name, but you must know this person. This man's surname is Jin, and no one knows his real name. Zeng There are seven brothers, and now he is the only one left.”
Tie Er echoed: "Yes, this person is the mastermind of the Twelve Chain Piers. He has mastered the unique skill of making waves. If he can travel by land, he is the Dragon King of the Land. If he can enter the water, he is the Dragon King of the Land. The Water Dragon King's body skills are so high that he can transform into a dragon by entering water, which is extremely impressive."
Li Muchan wondered: "Is it really that powerful?"
"Hehe," King Miao Tian raised his voice and said with a strange smile, "Young master, you don't know. When the 'Money Gang' swept across the 63 provinces in the south, seven north and south, although they had no resistance on land and were tyrannical, they were tyrannical in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. But we suffered great losses on the great waterway.”
Li Muchan listened quietly without speaking.
King Miao Tian became interested and thought to himself: "It is said that the battle that year was so dark that the sky was dark and the rivers were stained with blood. Unexpectedly, it ended with the 'Money Gang' withdrawing their troops, and even the masters in the "Weapons Spectrum" died. Five of them were killed. The 'Twelve Links' dock became famous in one battle and became a powerful force in the world, but its vitality was also severely damaged. Jin Laoqi killed six of his brothers and lost the Yellow River waterway."
As he was talking, he suddenly realized something was wrong, and he laughed again and said: "Young master has a lot of goods from north to south, hasn't he dealt with the 'Twelve Links of Wharf'? How could you not know about this dock owner?"
Li Muchan said with a gentle expression, "Yes, that's why I took the waterway."
At this point, he paused for a moment: "But in my opinion, the 'Twelve Links' dock' should have been breached by the demon sect's followers, or Jin Laoqi temporarily avoided the attack and withdrew from the Yangtze River waterway. Otherwise, he How could you not inform me that Qiu Xiaolou has arrived in Jiangnan?"
Li Muchan's words were neither hasty nor slow, and his tone was calm, but when it fell in King Miao Tianwang's ears, it was like a thunderous explosion, and the eyes of several of his subordinates behind him swelled, their pupils trembled, and they trembled.
King Miao Tian laughed dryly, tightened the knife in his hand, lowered his eyes, and his voice became hoarse: "Young master, it's better not to call the leader by his first name."
"Why are you panicking?" Li Muchan looked at the heavy snow falling between the sky and the earth, and smiled casually, "Didn't you say you like silver? If you follow me, can I miss you?"
King Miao Tianwang laughed dryly, his eyes behind his visor turned sharply, and he was already retreating step by step. He said with a "Tuk-tuk" sound: "Sir, the world is in chaos now, and little people like me are just looking for self-protection. Moreover, although money is good, it also requires life flowers...I..."
While he was talking, he used the corner of his eye to observe the reactions of Tie Yan, the two of them, and the Bliss Goddess. It was a good thing not to look at them, but his heart froze at first sight.
The goddess of bliss stared at them with a half-smile, while Tie Yan and Tie Yan stood aside with their hands lowered and their eyebrows lowered, their expressions were very respectful, while the people on the boat all looked over.
King Miao Tian said in a harsh voice: "You..."
Li Muchan glanced at him: "Why don't you understand? Qiu Xiaolou didn't trust us people from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have let you deliver the letter. Now it's just that we haven't broken up with each other."
suddenly.
The light of the sword suddenly appeared, and the wind and snow suddenly opened.
The nine-foot-long Heavenly King's Ghost-Slaying Sword cuts through the air with one strike. Miao Tianwang holds the handle of the knife with the tip at the bow of the boat. He is holding the long knife and shoots towards the river bank like a flying rainbow.
He just wanted to escape, and he regretted that he would have taken the overland route if he had known better.
The men who followed him turned green when they saw their boss leaving so easily.
The goddess of bliss teased the green bamboo leaves in her hands and asked with a curious smile: "Just let him run away like this?"
Li Muchan glanced at the deep and cold lake, her eyes equally deep: "How can that be possible?"
"Wow!"
As he finished speaking, there was sudden movement on the river. Several flying claws that broke through the water and waves, with iron ropes attached, burst out of the water, as fast as lightning, biting out like poisonous snakes.
King Miao Tian happened to be flying through the air. When he saw this, he let out a shrill scream and waved his long sword. He was about to fight back, but the flying claws all hooked his weapon and locked it in mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, a sudden surge of water burst out from the water and hit King Miao Tian's chest.
King Miao Tian's eyes were furious, and he hurriedly folded his arms as he roared. With a "boom", his armor exploded in the air, and a short figure flew out and landed on the waves. Just as he was about to take advantage of his strength, he saw a few more in the water. Dao Fei Claw came out.
With no time to resist, Miao Tianwang hurriedly turned around and tried to get up. He never thought that the crisscrossing iron cables would turn into a big net.
"ah!"
King Miao Tian barely flew into the air, but was caught in the net again in the blink of an eye. He was tied up during the struggle and was about to be dragged into the water. He hurriedly shouted to the big boat: "Sir, spare your life!"
Li Muchan greeted: "Don't kill him yet."
"Wow!"
Suddenly water exploded on the river, and several figures leaped into the air like fish breaking through the waves and swept onto the bow of the boat.
At the front was a burly man with red hair and a green face, wearing a water-proof clothing sewn from shark skin, standing barefoot, and his rough voice was like muffled thunder.
"Hahaha, Jin Laoqi has met the young master!"
