While Lu Jin was waiting anxiously, earth-shattering shouts of killing came from both sides of the island.
The people on the island woke up from their sleep and came out with long knives to fight the enemy before they had time to dress up. Many people died in confusion before they could see clearly who the opponent was.
After the initial chaos, the Japanese showed their tenacity and began to organize a counterattack.
"Charge over." Lu Jin ordered, waving his scimitar.
Their boat washed up on the reef, and a dozen people waded ashore and ran towards the center of the island.
Everyone in Lu Jin's group lit several torches and threw them at the bamboo buildings and wooden houses they saw along the way. The raging fire suddenly rose into the sky, lighting up the darkness before dawn.
Most of the Japanese were busy dealing with the offensive of the boat gangs attacking from both sides. The few who stayed behind were all wiped out by the team led by Lu Jin.
Hearing the loud shouts of killing on their left, after a brief discussion, they threw out all the remaining torches in their hands and ran towards that direction amidst the sound of the wooden houses and bamboo buildings exploding.
Sure enough, the team led by Diao Zhan was suppressed and unable to move forward on the beach. The Japanese fought against them one by one and attacked them regardless of life or death.
Lu Jin and his party attacked from behind and instantly brought down the unsuspecting Japanese.
The Japanese were in chaos.
Lu Jin launched the "Phantom Technique". Although she was not as fast as Lu Chuan, in the eyes of everyone, her figure was also difficult to catch. It was like entering a deserted land among the rebels, harvesting the lives of Japanese people.
The two teams of Diao Zhan and Lu Jin attacked from behind, and soon all the Japanese were killed.
They hurried to the other side of the island without stopping, but were shocked by the scene in front of them.
The boat gang, which originally had the numerical advantage, now, except for the gang leaders Qiao Hai and Lu Yuanding, and the remaining ten or so people, were lying on the beach in a mess, their lives and deaths unknown.
Even the remaining ten people were injured and surrounded by dangers.
On the other hand, the more than 20 Japanese pirates were all very brave, especially the leader. Although he looked thin, his long sword was like a dragon rising from the sea. Every time he swung it, hundreds of sword shadows appeared, making it difficult for people to guard against it.
Qiao Hai's ghost-headed sword was powerful and heavy, and it danced with great force, with countless swords and shields standing in front of him. Unexpectedly, his internal strength was gradually exhausted, and he was at a disadvantage. He was forced to retreat continuously by the Japanese's long sword.
Another plump Japanese swordsman was fierce, and every strike was like a strong wind. People seemed to be out of breath under the pressure, and even the combined efforts of three or five people could not resist his attack.
The fat Japanese sword swept across, and the two boat gang disciples tried their best to resist, but they still flew backwards. The pain in their chests was as if a boulder had hit them, and they couldn't help spitting out blood from their mouths. Their lives were in danger.
Lu Yuanding knew he was outmatched, so when he was about to draw his sword, he bravely rushed over and hit the plump Japanese man in the back of the head with his stick.
"Crack!"
The long stick hit the Japanese man's head so hard that it broke into two pieces.
The Japanese stumbled forward a few steps, blood flowing from the back of his head. He touched it with his hand, and the severe pain made him grin.
The weapon was damaged, and Lu Yuanding hurriedly picked up a spear that someone else had dropped on the beach, and was about to stab the plump Japanese man when the man turned around, his fierce eyes seeming to burst out with anger.
Lu Yuanding was also stunned when he saw his ferocious expression.
The Japanese sword slashed diagonally at Lu Yuanding's shoulder.
"Father, be careful!" Lu Jin shouted, and instantly moved behind the fat Japanese man, stabbing his scimitar through his back.
The Japanese suffered pain and the force of the long sword was weakened. Even so, the long spear in Lu Yuanding's hand was split into two pieces, causing Lu Yuanding's tiger's mouth to go numb.
Lu Jin succeeded in the attack without any hesitation, pulled out the scimitar and turned it aside.
The Japanese was in severe pain, and his face twitched as he kicked him backwards. Fortunately, Lu Jin had already dodged the kick and did not hit him.
He was so angry that he turned around and stabbed Lu Jin regardless of where he was.
Lu Yuanding was worried about his daughter's safety. Even though the spear had been broken into two pieces, he held the tip of the spear and rushed forward. He pierced the Japanese man's chest with his spear and then fell to the ground and rolled to avoid the Japanese attack.
Palm.
The Japanese received a blow to the back of the head, a knife and a gunshot to the chest, and he held on to prevent himself from falling.
He was cursing unknown, and he was looking for Lu Jin with unsteady steps.
Of all the wounds on the Japanese man's body, Lu Jin's knife was the most serious. It pierced his heart, and blood continued to gush out from the back of his heart.
Lu Yuanding picked up a sword from the ground and stared at the Japanese warily.
The Japanese man lost too much blood, and his vision was blurry. He knew that he could not save himself, so he made the last knife of his life based on his feeling.
His dying struggle movements are relatively slow, and everyone can easily dodge.
The Japanese sword struck the beach, cutting out a deep ravine. The sea in the distance was also shaken up by waves several feet high, which rose up and then crashed on the coast.
Muttering in his mouth, the Japanese fell to the ground and died unwillingly.
Lu Yuanding and his daughter killed the fierce enemy. Diao Zhan led everyone to gain the upper hand, and the remaining Japanese were killed one after another.
Only the seemingly thin Japanese man had sharp swordsmanship, and the two gang leaders Qiao Hai and Diao Zhan managed to fight him to a draw.
Seeing that the situation was over, the thin Japanese man would definitely suffer losses if he continued like this, and even his own life could not be saved, so he turned around and ran away with a feint of his sword.
But before his eyes flashed, a petite girl stood in his way.
"You can't escape, just suffer death!" Lu Jin said what she thought was the cruelest words in the gentlest tone.
Normally, when the Japanese heard such words, they would have laughed out loud. Forced by the current situation, he slashed without caring about the other people with his sword. Countless sword shadows swept towards Lu Jin.
Since Lu Jin practiced the "Phoenix Dance to Seek the Phoenix", she has practiced various tactics on weekdays. She threw the round shield in her left hand, and the round shield rose into the air and immediately grew in size, blocking the shadows of swords in the sky.
She rushed forward randomly and struck the Japanese man in the chest with her scimitar.
Lu Jin was so fast that before the Japanese could react, they could already feel the blade right in front of them.
In a hurry, he retreated subconsciously, but he forgot that there was a strong enemy behind him.
Qiao Hai's ghost-headed sword and Diao Zhan's long sword slashed at the Japanese man's back at the same time, and Diao Zhan's long sword penetrated his chest.
The Japanese became fierce and turned around to strike with a sword. Diao Zhan had no time to draw his sword, so he had to let go and roll aside.
Qiao Hai raised his sword to receive his move.
"boom!"
Both of them retreated more than ten steps.
The Japanese man felt severe pain in his chest. He looked down at the sword blade exposed on his chest and the blood flowing continuously. He was about to step forward and fight to the death, but he saw that the entire sword blade passed through his chest, and he felt that the hilt of the sword had not penetrated into his back.
The pain made his eyes darken, he staggered a few steps forward and knelt there.
It turned out that Lu Jin had withdrawn his round shield. Seeing that the Japanese had a sword stuck in his back, he rushed over and knocked the sword in with his shield.
Qiao Hai didn't give him a chance to regret. He took two steps forward, raised the ghost-headed sword, and chopped off his head with one blow.
So far, all the Japanese pirates on the island have been eliminated, but no one is happy.
The casualties in this battle were too great, nearly 40% of the personnel were killed or injured, which is heartbreaking.
Lu Jin saw his father, Lu Yuanding, covered in blood and standing there precariously. He ran over to help him and said anxiously: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"
"Those bastards gave me a few cuts on my back." Lu Yuanding fainted after saying this.
Lu Jin hugged his father and cried bitterly in fear. Seeing this, the boat gang disciples helped carry him to the boat.
Everyone was busy in silence with heavy hearts. The deceased was carried to a boat alone, and the injured was carried to another speedboat and returned immediately to seize the time for treatment.
In the end, the few remaining people burned down all the houses and buildings on the island, completely abandoning this distressing island.
Back at the station, Lu Yuanding gradually woke up. He just lost too much blood after being injured. He held on until he finally lost strength and fell into a coma. He was able to go home to rest after being given the wound medicine, and he was fine.
Lu Jin dug out the "Detailed Explanation of Formulas" that Lu Chuan had annotated, and followed the instructions above and the method dictated by his father, helping him recover his damaged meridians every day, changing the wound medicine on his back, and not going out all day long.
More than ten days later, Lu Yuanding was restored
It was almost the same. Simple activities did not affect the back trauma. Lu Jin's mother was happy. She cooked a sumptuous meal and bought wine and cooked meat to celebrate the safety of the whole family.
Because they were happy, Lu Jin and her daughter also drank a few less drinks and became a little tipsy. Lu Yuanding's face was red and his neck was thick, and he was a little drunk.
Lu Jin put away the dishes and was about to lie down and rest with her mother when someone knocked on the door outside.
"Who is it? Come in, the door is unlocked." Lu Jin's mother said loudly.
On the island, there are all familiar neighbors, and the courtyard door never needs to be locked during the day.
The man outside pushed the door open and came in. It was Diao Zhan, the deputy leader of the Boat Gang.
"Brother **, please come in quickly." Lu Jin's mother greeted the guests.
"You guys just drank. It seems unlucky that you're late." Diao Zhan joked.
Lu Jin's mother smiled and said, "We have wine and meat, I will just put them on the table again."
Diao Zhan stopped him: "I'm just joking, as long as I have tea."
After a while, Lu Jin made tea and brought it over.
Diao Zhan stared at Lu Jin and said happily: "The little girl has grown up in a blink of an eye and has learned a lot of good skills. Are you used to it outside?"
"I'm used to it. If I stay with my parents for a while, I have to go out to find Brother Ancient Sage Chao. I'm afraid they won't be able to let me go!" Lu Jin said coquettishly to his mother.
Lu Jin's mother hugged her baby daughter, grinning from ear to ear: "Normally, I would really be reluctant to let go. When the child's father first came back, we had a lot of quarrels. We were worried that my daughter would secretly shed tears, and we even complained. **Brother, you are cruel when you are angry. This time when Lu Jin came back, I heard the neighbors talking about her with envy on their faces, so I knew it was the right time to go out. Children will eventually leave their parents, and who wouldn’t want to if they can improve their abilities? ah!"
Diao Zhan slapped his thigh: "That's right. I have blamed myself for keeping my child away from you. I was afraid that my child would not have a good life outside and would harm the little girl."
Seeing them talking about herself, Lu Jin shyly asked to go back to her room.
"Miss Lu Jin, I have something to ask you." Diao Zhan called her.
"Gang leader, what's going on?" Lu Jin was a little cautious.
Diao Zhan scratched his head and wondered: "Well, many people in our boat gang knew that I was the one who asked you to go out, but when they saw you coming back as a different person, they all begged me to send their girls out. You think I I don’t have this ability, so I came here and asked the girl if Mr. Gu, the Minister of War, still needs any manpower.”
"Ah!" Lu Jin said in surprise: "Brother Rigu didn't want me and had to drive me away. He reluctantly took me in after the elder Yunqi Gongshui begged him. Furthermore, his eldest wife is Wanruo, the king of the four kings in the night. , very fierce, even I was scared when I saw her, I think it’s quite scary.”
Diao Zhan was also shocked: "The Night Charm King turns out to be his wife. Wan Nu Xia is famous in the world and is known for her violent temper. If this is the case, it is really difficult to handle. I have failed the villagers and I will let them down."
Lu Jin thought for a while and said softly: "It's not impossible. Brother Gu's second wife is quite gentle and has invulnerability. It is said that she wants to create some kind of 'Iron Arm Gate' to recruit daughters from all parties. If it is true That might work. "
"Really?" Diao Zhan became interested, "Then please go back and ask around, girl. If you have any news, tell me. You can also tell your parents and let them pass it on to me."
"Yeah." Lu Jin nodded.
Diao Zhan left satisfied.
Within a few days, I don’t know what Diao Zhan told the villagers, but it was widely publicized on the island that Lu Jin was invulnerable.
What's more, after receiving his own child, he would come to worship Lu Jin as his teacher, which made the whole family dumbfounded.
Lu Jin's mother quietly asked Lu Jin what other skills he could do. She took a few steps back and used the invisibility technique she had taught Hong Ji to merge with the wall.
"You can still see it during the day, but I won't be able to find you at night." Although she is not skilled enough, she is already a hero in her mother's eyes.
Lu Yuanding's injuries were fine, and Lu Jin said goodbye to leave. Her mother asked her to take the banknotes with her, but Lu Jin refused and found out that there were more than two hundred taels of banknotes on her body.
"I have enough for the journey. It would be a pity if I lost it. You can keep the flowers." After Jing Lu Jin said this, he gave up the idea of letting her take them.
Lu Jin and her mother hugged each other and cried for a while, then they said goodbye in tears.
Diao Zhan personally took a boat to see her off. When leaving, many folks from the island came to see her off.
"Don't worry, I will take your matters to heart and won't let you down." Diao Zhan felt guilty when he spoke.
Arriving at the port, Lu Jin asked Diao Zhan: "Gang leader, is there a place selling horses nearby? I lost my horse when I came here."
Diao Zhan laughed "haha" and waved, and someone brought the horse that Lu Jin had brought with him.
"My horse is not lost." Lu Jin was overjoyed and almost jumped up holding the horse's head.
"The port is full of people from our shipping gang. If you leave it on the ship that day, our people will take it in and you can't throw it away." Diao Zhan introduced.
"Thank you, Master." Lu Jin got on his horse.
"Well, please ask the girl to bother to inquire about what I said that day." Diao Zhan said embarrassedly.
Lu Jin handed over his hand and said, "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely fulfill my mission."
Under Diao Zhan's uneasy gaze, she rode away.
