Ma Yuxuan was originally visiting friends nearby, but unexpectedly he suddenly received an express message from his master, saying that Yan Liehou, a disciple of his senior brother, had been threatened, and he needed help from his master to deliver the message. As a disciple who has done a lot of foreign affairs in the past two years, Ma Yuxuan has become increasingly famous in the world. This is also one of the strategies of the five disciples of Dadong.
Ma Yuxuan, the favored disciple of the master, did not show off his arrogance. On the contrary, he knew that there were many masters in the world, so he handled everything he handled very well. Ma Yuxuan knew quite a bit about his nephew, Yan Liehou.
He studied under his senior brother, but due to talent issues, he could only stop there. After joining the army, Manman Dangdang gained a reputation in the world, and Xianyun Village was even a famous village in the Jiangnan area. It was unbelievable that anyone would openly threaten him.
However, Ma Yuxuan was not surprised when he heard that the other party was actually Captain Jieke, a Pacific pirate who had been running rampant in the sea for the past two years.
Because Captain Jike was a man who even dared to offend Wu Yue and Zhou, he became famous overseas. Besides, you are just a wealthy person from one place in the world, so this is not surprising at all.
Ma Yuxuan has no doubt about the influence of the sect in Jiangnan or even the entire Central Plains. After all, the Shangqing sect is not just a piece of paper. As a disciple of the Fifth Son of Dadong, Yan Liehou did not dare to use the tiger skin of his master as a banner. But just because as a disciple of the Fifth Son of Dadong, someone dared to openly threaten to invade, Ma Yuxuan would definitely intervene.
Even if Captain Jike is not afraid of these separatist forces, these things in the world are still a little different. It is said that Wu Yue and Zhou both sent people to investigate this person, but in the end there was no sound. Captain Jike continued to be active and active. It seemed that nothing about him had been reported in the world. Obviously the problem was a bit complicated.
So when Ma Yuxuan hurried to Xianyun Village, he decisively did not go in to see Yan Liehou immediately. He is younger than this nephew, but his cultivation level is much higher. Moreover, going to see Yan Liehou in such a public manner may be counterproductive. So Ma Yuxuan chose to stay in the dark. He was extremely conceited and happened to meet Captain Jike who sent someone to give Yan Liehou an ultimatum, so he followed quietly.
No one expected that this group would follow them to the sea. Ma Yuxuan was slightly shocked when he saw Jie Ke's fleet. He saw two small warships guarded by ten battleships. It seems that only Wu Yue Kingdom can produce this kind of warships now.
It seems that the rumors from the outside world are true. Captain Jike was able to steal food from Wu Yueguo and captured two small naval ships, but Wu Yueguo obviously did not make any announcement.
What a handiwork! Ma Yuxuan could no longer describe his state of mind as shocked. A group of pirates who made a living by robbing actually dared to rob a country's warship. Ma Yuxuan thought that even the most powerful people in the world would not do such crazy things. He wanted to sneak up to the ship to have a look.
Let’s see what kind of people this is and what kind of support they have! When he saw Captain Jike's huge fleet, he immediately understood that no country could control this fleet now. They obviously had more than one fleet, but Ma Yuxuan wanted to find out more, but on the second day of following Captain Jike, he voluntarily gave up the idea!
Because when he was approaching one of the high-rise ships, he actually felt an inexplicable sense of danger. After cultivating to the level of Ma Yuxuan, one can instinctively feel a subtle thing, and this ability is usually cultivated and transformed into a life-saving skill. However, this skill is also a unique ability of Ma Yuxuan. This feeling was something that even his now highly respected senior brother and Yan Liehou's master, Ting Fengzi and Wei Fengting, could not give him.
He knew that there was a master on board the ship, and he was an extremely dangerous master. Although the opponent did not attack him, Ma Yuxuan was sure that as long as he advanced one meter further, he would be attacked by the opponent madly. How many moves could he make? , Ma Yuxuan is not sure at all.
This can also explain why someone like Captain Jike has risen so quickly. Although Ma Yuxuan has never seen Captain Jike's skills, he must not be too weak, otherwise he would be so unscrupulous at sea, and Wu Yueguo has no way to deal with him.
Obviously, there is another reason because it is at sea, and the encirclement and suppression cannot be effective without several times the strength; secondly, it must be that this master is hiding in the dark, that is, Wu Yue and Zhou sent some masters to go, basically there is no way. Back.
The Wuyue Kingdom was very wealthy, just like the Han Kingdom in Lingnan, and there had been few wars in the Wuyue Kingdom in the past few decades. This had a lot to do with the good reputation left by King Qian in Jiangnan. The Wuyue Kingdom was also the last to be destroyed among the Ten Kingdoms. Although it had little fighting power, it had a strong reputation.
For a pirate who dared to offend him, Wu Yueguo must have thought of a way to completely deal with Captain Jike. But it was obviously unsuccessful, and instead allowed Captain Jike to seize two of the few small ships.
The ships now revealed after Captain Jie Ke captured and refitted them are now no less than fifty or sixty, large and small. It is said that he has conquered and merged seven or eight forces, large and small. Ma Yuxuan has naturally heard of Captain Jike's deeds, but has never had the opportunity to contact him. This time, he did not give up on Yan Liehou's affairs, so he kept hanging around Jie Ke's fleet.
He knew that as long as he didn't touch this hidden master's bottom line, he probably wouldn't take action against him. Today, Jie Ke's deadline for Yan Liehou has expired. When he led a group of people and drove a ship to the vicinity of Xianyun Village, Ma Yuxuan knew that the opportunity might be today.
"Captain Jike, you are now considered a famous figure in the outer seas, and Yan is also considered a respectable figure in the Jiangnan area. I don't know when I offended you, but you have to be so aggressive!" Yan Liehou sat down. A speedboat, standing on the bow of the speedboat, more than ten men raised their arms and rowed together, and the speedboat moved forward rapidly. Yan Liehou stood on the bow of the boat and shouted loudly, while he and a group of friends who had made an appointment were rushing towards the sea.
He also saw the situation here from a long distance, and he was a little worried in his heart. He couldn't help but use the Taoist inner energy that he had practiced for many years to shout directly. It was spread far away on the sea, but he was clearly visible. Deep inner strength. He is worthy of being an authentic Taoist sect and shows excellent cultivation.
"Hahahaha!" Jie Ke laughed loudly and looked at Yan Liehou. Seeing the group of people here boarding Yan Keci's battleship, he couldn't help but raise his voice: "A certain family wants to dominate the outer sea. Be a happy dragon king. But a certain family has its roots in the mainland. I think your Xianyun Village is an excellent port. In this troubled world, this means that a man is innocent and guilty of carrying a treasure! No matter what happens today, if you listen to a certain family We proposed cooperation that day, and we all talked about it happily. If you resist, a certain family will lead all the brothers to your Xianyun Village as guests!"
Captain Jike threatened him so openly, and did not take Yan Liehou, a powerful person in the party, seriously, which made everyone gasp in surprise.
But no one refutes him because he is Captain Jiko. How can a person who is not afraid of a country be afraid of you, a powerful person in the world?
"Master Yan, there is no need to talk to him at this moment. The sea routes from the village to the sea have been blocked by these pirates. It is estimated that the fighting ships from the Zhangwu Army cannot get through. We must think of countermeasures early. !" The person who spoke was none other than Chu He, the leader of Lingguan Fort, Saiyun Chang. Standing next to him was a capable man, who was the main figure of Lingguan Fort, Cross Sword Yuan Fei.
Yan Liehou was indeed very excited, but he also knew that with Jieke's current posture, he was indeed no match for him at sea, not to mention that dozens of people were captured by the opponent. He couldn't help but look at the people on Chen Dushang's side. Although he still had some men, if Captain Jike didn't come ashore, there was nothing he could do to take him.
He calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Does Master Chen have any good ideas?" He lowered his posture again and even changed his name to Chen Dushang. Based on his experience and current situation, he naturally knew that there was someone to help him. What's more, if I don't draw more allies now, I'm afraid I will be in trouble today.
Naturally, Yan Liehou didn't know that the division had sent his uncle Ma Yuxuan over. Although he had dominated this area for decades, the feedback from the Zhangwu Army made him understand that he was far from Jike's. Opponents, only by finding ways to lure these pirates to the shore can we have countermeasures and methods.
Chen Dushang looked at the situation in the sea with a calm expression, and the cries for help kept coming, but there was nothing that Xianyun Village could do. The opponent's crossbow arrows have been pointed here, and only Zhuang Ding can swim back by himself.
"Brother Yan should have some countermeasures! These pirates on the sea are not generals, and judging from their well-trained actions and tacit cooperation, they are really not something that ordinary armies can deal with. A certain family and all the gentlemen are just figures in the world. I'm not good at marching or fighting. If you want to make a difference, you really can't ask them to come to the village to talk!"
Yan Liehou's eyes lit up: "Headmaster Chen really has a brilliant idea!" In fact, he has always had this idea. The key is that he doesn't know if others will join him, but with the help of these people around him, things may turn around. .
"Although Yan is still a bit thin-faced within the jurisdiction of Zhangwu Army Jiedushi, if Yan agrees to your request now, and your reputation at sea is well known, wouldn't it make people think that we are colluding with each other! Yan has already I asked someone to invite people from the Zhangwu Army to come over and host the ceremony. As soon as their people arrive, let's all have a drink at Xianyun Manor!" Yan Liehou actually softened up on his own initiative.
Those who didn't know thought that Yan Liehou was begging Captain Jike, but who Captain Jike was, he understood what Yan Liehou meant as soon as he heard it. This Yan Liehou not only wanted to fight to the death, but also obviously wanted to draw Zhangwu Army in as his ally, and told Captain Jike that I was protected by Zhangwu Army. Although it was not a verbal threat, he clearly told himself that he also had a backing.
Even the Wuyue Kingdom didn't take it seriously, let alone a Jiedu vassal town under its jurisdiction!
Captain Jie Ke believed that the Zhangwu Army might send people over, but it was more likely that the Zhangwu Army had heard from Wuyue Kingdom’s senior officials that they had plundered Wuyue Kingdom’s small ships in a short period of time. Even if they came over, they would definitely be on guard and wait and see. Most of them. Captain Jike also knew that Yan Liehou was the disciple of Dadong Wuzi, but compared to his own affairs, his reputation in the world was not enough to affect his actions.
Sure enough, the spies who had been standing on the watchtower on the fourth floor of the ship reported that about ten miles away from the land in the northeast, there were about a hundred horsemen and horses approaching quickly; more than ten miles away in the north, there were two suspended ships on the sea. The fighting ship carrying the flag of the Zhangwu Army is also approaching.
This was obviously what Captain Jieke had expected. He actually laughed evilly, as if he didn't care at all, and looked at Ma Yuxuan, who was alone in the sea.
"Since they want to play tricks on a certain family, they should first drive these noisy people to the shore and destroy all their boats in the sea of Xianyunzhuang. Anyway, what we want is this deep water bay, and the other families should be treated as a certain family. Even everyone looks down on it. Today, let them see the combat effectiveness of our Pacific pirates on land, let them know how powerful our Pacific pirates are! Order the gunners to sink their fighting ships first!" Captain Jieke said calmly to the people around him road.
Then the masters invited by Xianyun Village to assist and Ma Yuxuan in the sea saw a scene they would never forget!
Even the guest general Sun Wei, the God of Thunder, sent by the Zhangwu Army, who hurried over from outside the village, had experienced large-scale battlefield experience, and when he saw this situation, he had no idea of resistance.
I saw the building ship slowly crossing the sea surface, and beside the guardrails on each floor of the building ship, a group of four people rolled out two large iron pipes that were four feet long and one foot in diameter. These large iron pipes are all sitting on a two-wheeled wooden iron frame. I don't know what they are. They are all staggered and standing beside the guardrail, aiming at the Xianyunzhuang ship from a distance.
When he saw the pirates putting round objects into the big iron pipe, Yan Liehou saw that Captain Jike didn't respond, and he vaguely knew that something was wrong! Although I don't know what they are trying to do here, it is obviously not a good thing.
When the pirates on the fighting ship saw this situation, they all shouted out, holding the long and short weapons in their hands and shouted: "Mighty! Mighty!"
Bang bang! Several loud noises! It was deafening, and the sound spread four miles.
The fire was everywhere, and the artillery warhead hit the target with almost no mistakes. It either landed on the bow of the battleship or on the side of the head. The wooden hull splattered with wood chips, and the huge explosion force caused the ship to quickly fill with water; the people flying everywhere were Zhuang Ding, who was unable to dodge, a few men from the rivers and lakes with less skill, and Yan Liehou's disciples. Injuries of varying degrees.
The huge destructive power caused the big battleship to fall apart and sink in the sea water, and these people did not react at all. In the era of cold weapons, no one had ever seen such a powerful combat weapon. The continuous artillery fire made people unable to avoid it. Even a few skilled masters in the world were seriously injured.
From a distance, Ma Yuxuan stared blankly at the cry. He didn't know that Captain Jike was already merciful and did not fire at densely populated areas, nor did he let people hit the middle of the ship directly.
But Ma Yuxuan was already cold all over, and he felt as if the end of the world had come. He watched the fighting ships here being destroyed, more like paper, being hit by the bursts of gunfire, and the people on the ship looked like rag dolls. were thrown into the water, and screams and moans continued.
There are still images of pieces of wood flying in the air, and fire has broken out in some places.
The four-story small ship had exactly eight cannons aimed at eight battleships, and all of them were hit without exception. These people didn't even have a chance to run on the sea, and the two sides were still nearly a hundred meters away. .
Captain Jike doesn't mind exposing his combat power, because no one knows what kind of weapon it is at this time! Seeing Zhuang Ding falling into the water one after another, injured or dead, and the dozen or so masters who relied on their superb skills to land on the wooden blocks in the sea, they no longer cared about it.
Seeing the two battleships with the Zhangwu flag on the sea behind him, they dared not come over from a distance. He smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air. Ma Yuxuan, who had been practicing alchemy, vaguely knew something and guessed that this was what. But I have never heard of any force using this kind of thing as a weapon, and this kind of thing has such power!
Ma Yuxuan suddenly seemed to remember something, but he was not sure. He could only watch the tragedy happening here numbly. Watching the pirates who had just fired their cannons, they cleaned the barrels and then put in another cannonball in an orderly manner.
And here, the Pacific pirates headed by Jie Ke, under the command of the young man carrying a sword on his back, continued to use big fish steaks to fish these people out of the sea like fish, and tied them one by one with prepared raw beef tendons. Tightly tied.
Hundreds of people were floating in the sea. Yan Liehou stood on a boat with his eyes blazing, but he watched a group of people running towards the village. The leader was in his thirties and looked upright. It was Sun Wei, the guest general of the Zhangwu Army, known as the God of Thunder in the world, and the disciple of Li Luohan, the ancestor of Luoxi, one of the Four Saints of Buddhism.
This Thunder God Sun Wei is good at Hunyuan Thunder Palm, and he is actually not famous in the world. However, because of his family background, he grew up in a military camp. It is said that he was later adopted as a disciple by the ancestor of Luoxi, and he is currently the general with the most promising future in the Zhangwu Army.
Seeing the miserable scene on Yan Liehou's side, Sun Wei frowned slightly and said loudly: "Master Yan, come ashore quickly, we all have something to talk about!" His voice actually sounded better than Yan Liehou's voice just now. It's much more powerful, and it's hard to tell that his cultivation is so profound.
"There are so many people joining in the fun, we can go ashore!" Seeing more than ten people from Yan Liehou rowing hard to the shore while protecting some villagers, Captain Jike did not ask anyone to catch the villagers in the water again. Although those people slowly rowed back to the shore, he also moved closer to Xianyunzhuang Water Village.
The pirates didn't care about Ma Yuxuan, who was getting closer. Six speedboats were put down on the ship. Captain Jike and several people got on the speedboat and quickly rowed over to Xianyunzhuang Water Village.
Seeing the pirates' six speedboats lined up on the shore, although the villagers of Xianyun Village had eyes on fire, they never dared to shoot the bows and arrows in their hands, because the opponent had a powerful crossbow in his hand, and the crossbow was more effective at such a close distance. big. Moreover, he was hit by artillery fire and saw a strange iron rod in the opponent's hand. Just after a burst of shelling, more than a hundred people in Xianyun Village were captured by pirates and taken to the ship.
Ma Yuxuan was about fifty meters away from the pirate's speedboat, and his eyelids actually twitched. He clearly saw a person. There was an old man beside Captain Jike, one who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, and another who looked to be in ordinary clothes. Although he didn't stare at him, Ma Yuxuan felt like he had a back eye, and his energy was always locked on him. And the feeling of being locked into someone's energy made Ma Yuxuan feel inexplicably the biggest crisis in his life.
The young man who had been following Captain Jike and carried a sword on his back, strode more than ten feet away from the shore and jumped out of the boat. The long sword in his hand shone brightly, bringing up a strong wind to protect him in front of him. With an evil smile in his eyes, he passed by everyone around Yan Liehou.
The man carrying a pair of axes shouted loudly, and his body fell into the water, causing endless splashes. It was obvious that his light body skills were not as good as those of the young man with a sword. He ran up with a pair of axes in long strides. A pair of bull's eyes opened angrily, as if watching It's unpleasant to everyone.
Then, everyone watched the speedboat dock, and no one, including Yan Liehou, tried to stop it. The opponent's artillery has been pointed at this side, and everyone believes that as long as anyone dares to move, those artillery fire will hit them without hesitation.
Captain Jie Ke, who was wearing strange clothes, came over accompanied by the old man and another person. Everyone looked at Captain Jieke's costume and thought it was strange. However, besides the old man, there was another person beside him who was as good as him.
This man was bald and looked to be no more than thirty years old, but he was wearing an ephedra robe and his sneaky eyes were looking around, wondering whether he was a monk or a Taoist priest. What's even better is that he is holding a small wooden fish in his left hand and a Taoist whisk in his right hand.
Ma Yuxuan also came up to the shore on the other side and walked slowly towards Yan Liehou. There happened to be a villager who thought he was a pirate. Looking at the crowd of people on his side, he couldn't help but wave his hand. Zhongdan Dao shouted: "Pirates, get back!"
This made Ma Yuxuan a little embarrassed. Looking at the excited Zhuang Ding, he shook his head helplessly and said: "A frightened bird! Its cry is also sad! It's just that!" Seeing that Yan Liehou had led the crowd out, he had not had time to talk to him. Hello, the man with the ax next to Captain Jike is quitting.
"You little thief, how dare you come out and make noise!" He couldn't help but turn his axes and came over to chop the village man. He looked very scary with his eyes wide open in anger.
This Zhuang Ding is just an ordinary man. If he is really hit by this axe, he will be cut into several pieces immediately! Not to mention that Zhuang Ding was petrified, a person next to Yan Liehou had already jumped out and faced the man with a sword in his hand.
This pair of wooden axes weighed at least one hundred pounds, but they seemed to be flying up and down lightly in this man's hands. The person facing him was Zhang Chu, the eldest disciple of Yan Liehou. He was known as Chasing the Wind Sword, and his junior disciple Yan Kepi Qingfeng Sword was known as the two heroes of Xianyun Village.
But he seemed to be no match for Lun Banaxu. The two of them struck each other continuously, and Zhang Chu kept retreating. The sword in his hand could no longer be used, and it looked like he would be defeated within a few moves.
Yan Keci on the side wanted to come over and help Zhang Chu, but he knew that he could not keep up with this senior brother's skill, so he couldn't help but scratch his head anxiously.
"Don't be arrogant!" Yuan Fei, a cross sword master from Lingguan Fort, has already come over. His weapon is a pair of three-foot long swords. He is also nimble and agile. He came to help Zhang Chu regardless of the people watching.
Before anyone could speak, the two sides faced each other first.
Captain Jike didn't seem to care about this and looked here quietly. Not worried or holding back at all.
"My assistants first!" Ma Yuxuan strode over, his long sleeves flying, and he attacked Yuan Fei and this tough guy respectively, and separated the two parties easily.
It turns out that the supreme and pure Dafa practiced by Ma Yuxuan is an authentic Taoist Kung Fu. In addition, he is talented and intelligent, and uses all his kung fu on his sleeves. The soft sleeves are full of internal energy and are not weaker than sharp weapons. Even more so, he used his skill and skill very well. One of them swung away Yuan Fei's swords, and the other even brushed away the double axes of the wheel-axe man, easily resolving the crisis between the two of them. As for Zhang Chu, he had already backed away when Yuan Fei came to the rescue.
Although this man who wielded two axes was rough and arrogant, he was not stupid. He only felt that his hands were numb when blocked by his sleeves, and he could hardly hold the two axes in his hands. He knew that he was far from Ma Yuxuan's opponent, and he couldn't help but feel resentful. Staring at Ma Yuxuan.
"Uncle Third Master!" Yan Liehou looked at Ma Yuxuan happily, and was a little lost in excitement. Although Ma Yuxuan is much younger than him, he is as famous as his master, so his skills are no problem. At this moment, Yan Liehou was so excited that he could hardly speak. The master finally sent someone to help him.
Ma Yuxuan smiled slightly, nodded, then turned to Captain Jike, saluted with a calm expression: "Shangqing disciples have met you all!" He had no choice but to stand up for Yan Liehou, knowing that Captain Jike's side If a master takes action, no one here can stop him, he can only lower his body first.
"Successor of the Shangqing Dynasty! You have to see your skills in this way!" Just hearing an evil voice, everyone felt their eyes blurred, and saw that Ma Yuxuan was already fighting with a person.
The experts on Yan Liehou's side were sweating coldly. They couldn't even see the figures of the two people clearly. They could only see two figures constantly exchanging blows, sometimes on the wooden frame of the water village, sometimes on the bow of the stranded ship, and sometimes Falling on the roof, it was dazzling to see.
Captain Jike didn't seem to be worried about anything at all, and looked here leisurely with his arms folded.
Yan Liehou stared at him seriously. He knew that Ma Yuxuan was powerful, but he did not expect to be so powerful. But what he was more worried about was that an ordinary person on the other side could deal with the best master on his side, and his face couldn't help but darken.
boom! The two people suddenly separated.
Ma Yuxuan landed more than ten feet in front of Yan Liehou. Nothing could be seen, but the long sleeve of the Taoist robe on his right hand seemed to have been cut open by a sharp blade in several places. He looked at his opponent quietly, frowning slightly for a long time.
Standing on the beach opposite him was his opponent, who turned out to be the weird bald man next to Captain Jike.
"My Taoist Zen name is Sweet Potato! I don't know what you call me!" Although this bald man in Taoist robes looks handsome, for some reason, his eyes with an evil smile always give people a nondescript feeling. It's even more confusing.
But after experiencing his extraordinary kung fu, no one dared to laugh at this young monk wearing robes. With a look of awe on his face, he chanted "Amitabha!" to Ma Yuxuan, and then threw the fly whisk in his hand into the air, a Taoist gesture of bowing his head.
The people here were stunned for a while, not knowing what this bald man meant, or whether he was a monk or a Taoist. But I understand one thing, he is the person next to Captain Jike, and he is not just testing Ma Yuxuan! For a time, everyone's mentality was different.
"The fifth son of Dadong, Fu Yuzi, Ma Yuxuan, has met the master and all my friends!"
There seems to be some chaos on the field now, but actually it's not just the Yan family that is talking. On one side is the Xianyun Village force of the Yan family; on the other is the Wuyue force headed by Sun Wei, the thunder god of the Zhangwu Army, who have not expressed the slightest sign yet; of course, the force on the Sword Eagle Chen Dushang also has a slight advantage.
Captain Jieke didn't say anything. After all, the Five Brothers here are not vegetarians. Not to mention how powerful Ma Yuxuan is, there is a reason why he has been able to share the same name in the Jiangnan area for so long, not to mention that the masters on his side seem to be on par with him. There is no distinction between superior and inferior.
