Chapter 341: The Tyrant on the Spring River
Qin Kai frowned and listened to the reports from his soldiers, and asked doubtfully: "You said that a ten-man team was found in the woods, and eight of them had their clothes taken off."
The soldier who bowed to report nodded and responded: "Yes, General! Judging from the clothes of the remaining two people, they should be members of the Sandman Group of the Shahe Gang."
Yin Shisan on the side frowned and said sadly: "I didn't expect that these losers are so useless! They can't even delay them for a moment!"
Qin Kai spoke out to persuade: "I have discovered before that there should be capable people in this group of people who are good at detecting. They suddenly increased their speed just now, and they must have realized that our deployment is approaching the limit."
At this point, he, who was wearing heavy armor, paused and added: "This also explains why they were able to kill these ten people in a short period of time without even letting them send a message."
Xie Huangqi, codenamed Huang Shi, was listening with a gloomy expression. Then he interjected and asked: "Surprise? Attack him unprepared?"
As the head of the Sandman organization, his subordinates were instantly killed by the enemy, which made this demonic warrior furious! If it weren't for the status of several people present above him, Huang Shi would definitely be furious.
There were four powerful knights present, including Yin Shisan and Huang Shi from the Shahe Gang, and Qin Kai and Batu from the Six Gates.
Batu, who was wearing a black and red cloak, had not interrupted before, because he knew that his son was deploying at the border with two hundred elite soldiers at this time. It was absolutely impossible to pass the blockade there in a short time. achieved.
"My lords, Quanzi is stationed at the border ahead. No matter how powerful that group is, it is absolutely impossible to quietly kill two hundred of my black-armored elites! We should hurry up and hurry up. Soon Maybe we can catch up with the two sides to fight." Batu looked at the three people around him and said in a deep voice.
Qin Kai smiled and nodded: "Is Baruch in front? That kid does things calmly and methodically, let's go there first."
Huang Shi frowned and said nothing. Yin Shisan next to him also had a calm face. But the two of them naturally understood the meaning of the armored man's words.
Do things calmly? Is there a plan? Does this mean that we, the Shahe Gang, are not very steady and disorganized in our work?
However, both parties were working for Ji Shenfu, so there was no way there would be any dispute over this trivial matter.
…
Zhang Ming led a group of people and moved forward at full speed after entering Chunfeng Town. Qin Hongyao was naturally carried by him. After all, the woman's cultivation was only at the peak of the Qi realm and could not keep up with the speed of the group of people.
In fact, among everyone present, even Li Xintian, who has the lowest cultivation level, is not bad at Qinggong. It is not only faster than the average Mang realm.
Not to mention Yi Xifeng, Zhao Long and others who are the best in the realm of Mang.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, since Ji Rentu is in Chunfeng Town right now, why don't we borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha and go meet General Rentu for a while?" Lu Huahua, who was walking in the middle of the team, suggested.
Anyway, they have already offended the Six Gates of Luoye City and the Shahe Gang, so there is no need for another black knight. His posture was a bit ruthless, as if he was not afraid of mosquito bites when there were too many mosquitoes.
Zhang Yanshi, who was following the team, shook his head and said in denial: "We don't know Yan Mingbo's attitude yet, so we'd better let this matter go."
He knew why the short-haired girl said that. In the past few battles, he either relied on his own sneak attacks or used disguises to get through. In the end, he was still being chased by others. This kind of fighting style was inconsistent with Lu Huahua's past.
Compared with Lu Huahua, who has always used violent means to defeat her enemies, Yi Xifeng is much more prudent, or in other words, much more cumbersome.
In the past six months, everyone has been on many missions together, not only the Iron Guard missions issued by the town, but also many of the pay list tasks undertaken by their team. The fair-skinned young man is a Guard Iron Yi regardless of his internal strength or combat skills. The best among them, but in ordinary tasks, he still habitually does not stand out.
In his own words, he was "suffering".
The fair boy himself didn't explain what "to be" means, but everyone's understanding should be that it means "to be content". Fortunately, although Yi Xifeng doesn't like to make strong moves, he can still control the overall situation at critical moments.
"Go to Chunfeng Town first. Instead of contacting Ji Rentu, it is better to contact Yan Mingbo first." Yi Xifeng suggested.
"In what capacity?" It was Zhao Long who asked.
Yi Xifeng thought for a while and replied: "Let's just use my identity as a sand person first."
………………Dividing line………………
Li Chengqian and Yan Mingbo were walking in front, while Zhou Di and others were some distance behind, following behind them. Apparently they had something important to discuss.
As for the content, both of them knew that it was not suitable for everyone to know.
"Instructor Li's martial arts cultivation is profound, and Yan admires him!" The strong man wearing a black cloak admired in a low voice.
Li Chengqian grinned, waved his hand and said: "I, Mr. Li, am a martial artist. I can't stand up to the stage, but compared with the leader of the Yan clan, there is a huge difference. Only when I met today did I know that the leader of the Yan clan is not only very accomplished in martial arts, but also a martial artist. He also knows how to keep a low profile and bide his time. In front of this kingly way, my so-called martial arts way seems to be small."
Yan Mingbo naturally heard what the middle-aged man meant, and said slowly with twinkling eyes: "Yan can't help himself. The inheritance passed down by my father must not be destroyed in Mingbo's hands. He will take charge of Chunfeng Town himself." Since then, I can only think hard and walk on thin ice!"
As the former captain of the mountain patrol team, Li Chengqian naturally knew the position of Chunfeng Town among the six forces. Although its population and armed forces are stronger than those of Yinren Village, it is bound to be difficult to develop due to its geographical location.
Therefore, Yan Mingbo had to find another way, starting from the water transport trade. In the eyes of outsiders, Chunfeng Town, which had basically given up on the construction of armed forces, was basically regarded as a vassal of Luoye City, or even a forbidden one.
In this way, Chunfeng Town really avoided a lot of trouble.
"However, time waits not for us, and Yinren has turned from a village into a town! The form of Chunfeng Town is bound to be in jeopardy!" Yan Mingbo frowned and sighed.
Li Chengqian was startled for a moment, then asked with some astonishment: "Changing the village from a village to a town?"
The man in the black cloak did not expect that the other party did not know about this important matter, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. Li Chengqian stayed in the secret realm of the ancient ruins for more than half a year. So many things happened during this period that he naturally had no way of knowing.
Yan Mingbo explained with a bitter smile: "Yinren has annexed Tiexin Village and just changed its name to Yinren Town some time ago! The situation in the entire Luoye City has also undergone tremendous changes. The first one to bear the brunt is Chunfeng Town, which is a forbidden area in the eyes of Luoye City. .”
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly. He still remembered that he met Li Chengtao once when he left the village and went to the ancient ruins. At that time, we were still discussing how to deal with external armed forces in Tiexin Village.
At that time, he assessed the inner energy and found traces of Zhao Yuntian. At that time, he was still working for Tiexin Village under the pseudonym "Shui Yuntian".
After Li Chengqian left the mountain patrol team, he no longer took care of the affairs of the village. Naturally, he did not know much about Zhao Yuntian's final arrangement, and did not confront him with Shui Yuntian. I just feel that the inner energy is both familiar and unfamiliar, which is very strange.
That's why he had such a conversation with Li Chengtao in the camp in Maple Leaf Forest that night. This is also the real reason why Li Chengtao rejected the other party and refused to let him take action.
"It seems that after leaving the village that day, a lot of things happened in the village, haha, that's fine." The middle-aged man murmured.
Yan Mingbo did not interrupt the other party's contemplation. After a while, Li Chengqian said seriously: "Gang Leader Yan, I understand what you mean. I can promise you that there are some deals that can be made."
Having said this, the originally calm-looking man in black cloak suddenly revealed his eyes! But before he could say anything more, Li Chengqian raised his hand to stop him.
"However, I have a condition. I want to talk to these brats first. I want to understand the current situation in Yinren Village, uh, it should be called Yinren Town."
Yan Mingbo nodded slowly and responded: "Instructor Li is absolutely right, and it should be so. My Feng Shui Gang will sweep the bed and wait for you, please!"
…
With Yan Mingbo leading the way, no one could stop him in Chunfeng Town, and everyone quickly arrived at Fenghe Pier. This dock is the military dock of Chunfeng Town. Everyone, including Zhou Di, was stunned when they saw the warships floating in the river.
Yan Mingbo said with a smile: "I'll make you laugh. This ship is a water battleship built by me, Chunfeng Zhen, with all the strength of the town. Not to mention in this Chunfeng River, even if it sails into the Yunxiao Sea to participate in a naval battle, it will never question!"
Zhou Di looked at the hematite sheet wrapped around the ship, which is a specialty ore from Hongyan Town. Although the hardness of the iron produced is almost the same as that of ordinary iron ore, the amount of iron produced and the unique fire attribute bonus make this iron Growing hematite is not cheap.
When it comes to smelting the hematite onto the surface of this huge ship, whether it is the craftsmanship or the amount used, it is all made with real gold and silver.
"With such a sharp weapon, it's no wonder that Gang Leader Yan can become the overlord on the Chunfeng River!" Li Chengqian said with emotion as he looked at the huge battleship in front of him.
"Hahaha, Coach Li is so complimentary!" the man in black cloak said modestly, but his expression was very proud.
Qi Chengcheng, who was following them, was originally shocked by the huge ship in front of him, but after hearing Yan Mingbo's words, the somewhat unruly young man muttered to himself:
"Isn't it just a big boat? It can't run fast when it's driven into the river. But when it's driven into the sea... hum! It might even sink!"
Zhong Lingxi on the side naturally heard the funny boy talking to himself, covered his mouth and smiled, then poked him.
Seeing Zhong Lingxi poking at him, Qi Chengcheng raised his eyebrows and muttered: "What are you doing?"
"Hehe, don't underestimate this iron battleship. No matter how powerful it is in water combat, the mere presence of this battleship is where Chunfeng Town's confidence lies!" Zhong Lingxi, with a picturesque look on his face, looked at the scene in front of him. A huge crimson ship explained in a low voice.
"Confidence?" Qi Chengcheng muttered doubtfully.
"This is the confidence that Chunfeng Town dares to challenge Luoye City. Even if the two sides go to war, Chunfeng Town's Feng Shui Gang can completely transfer all core members to this battleship. The people in charge of Chunfeng Town may change, but from then on , the entire Luoye County will not be easy. As a price, a very powerful water bandit will appear on the Chunfeng River!"
"Water bandit? You mean...!" The funny boy's eyes widened. Apparently he had not expected that Yan Mingbo and the others would choose this path.
Zhou Di on the side interjected and added: "Yes, this Gang Leader Yan is not a good character!"
Qi Chengcheng stared blankly at the man in black cloak not far ahead who was introducing the battleship to Li Chengqian. The previous contempt was finally gone from his expression.
It happened that Yan Mingbo turned around and looked at everyone. When his eyes met Qi Chengcheng's, the funny boy was a little shocked to find that there was a trace of amusement in the other's eyes.
Could it be! Did he hear our conversation just now? ! How can it be? Even though we were separated by more than ten feet, all of us could still keep our voices down! Qi Chengcheng thought secretly in his heart.
But soon, Yan Mingbo looked away and raised his hand to signal Li Chengqian to go to the battleship to discuss. The man in black cloak led the way, and the middle-aged man followed after getting up.
But when Li Chengqian was about to board the battleship, he turned back and looked at the kid behind him. Although the leader Zhou Di is already a young man, in his eyes, he is still a brat.
"Follow me, remember! Stop talking nonsense behind your back!" A voice suddenly sounded in the souls of Zhou Di, Qi Chengcheng and other eight people.
They knew it was not a sound, because the middle-aged man was standing on the deck of the battleship. He did not open his mouth, but just stared at them indifferently.
"This! Is this...a voice transmission from the soul?" Cold sweat gradually broke out on Zhou Di's forehead.
The so-called divine soul sound transmission is a powerful technique for using the divine soul. It is similar to the internal energy aura and requires the warrior to have extremely high control. Not only his own martial arts, but also his understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.
If an ordinary person met him, he would definitely think that he was an accomplished swordsman or swordsman. The so-called "immortals and gods" here do not refer to the other party's martial arts attainments, but rather to the extent to which they use their soul or inner energy. Due to the addition of their own insights, it is far beyond ordinary people's understanding.
As the saying goes: The child is silent, and the strange power confuses the spirit!
What gentlemen cannot say is that these things that are difficult for them to understand are lumped together as monsters and gods.
Qi Chengcheng, Zhou Di and Zhong Lingxi looked at each other, and the funny boy moved his lips, but didn't say anything out loud. But looking at his expression, everyone guessed what he wanted to say.
"This Yan Mingbo is actually so powerful!"
That's right, the man in the black cloak captured what the group of boys and girls behind him said just by relying on his inner energy and sound transmission with his soul. It can be seen from this that his true strength must be no less than that of Li Chengqian.
This is also the most fundamental reason why the middle-aged man was disdainful of cooperation at the beginning and finally became willing to negotiate with him.
It's not that Li Chengqian is very powerful, because no adult would talk about life and death with an ant. Only between people at the same level can there be conflict and so-called cooperation.
