In the evening, the fishing stars dispersed, and boats came and went in the harbor. A group of sailors dressed in Chinese attire got off the boat, walked ashore, and turned into an alley.
The alley was dark and deep, with wind lanterns swaying in the corners and bead foils floating, making people's faces flicker in and out. The smell in the alley was quite filthy, with a strange smell of corruption mixed with the insoluble vapor of powder.
Walking to a lacquered door at the end of the alley, the leading man in purple robe knocked on the door, exchanged a few words with the people inside, and then swarmed in.
Not long after, the man in purple robe walked out again, and behind him, people were already carrying dozens of large boxes and walking quickly towards the port beach.
Zhou Zumo, a man in purple robe, smiled and said to the people around him: "Money can make the world go round. This time we gave you enough money, so things will go smoothly."
After hearing this, all the sea guests nodded.
After a while, the lights on the sea drifted closer, and they were approaching the port.
All the seafarers said it easily. The cargo was not on the ship, but their hearts were hanging in the air. When they saw this, they all cheered in unison.
Just as they were cheering, they suddenly saw that all the lights on the ship were extinguished, and the entire ship was dark, with only a vague outline remaining, swaying slightly on the rough sea.
Zhou Zumo couldn't help but cursed: "What are these straight thieves doing? How can they load goods onto the ship if they are just fooling around?"
Before he finished speaking, a light like a bean at the stern of the ship lit up again.
Zhou Zumo was impatient and called the boatmen's names one by one, but received no reply. His heart suddenly sank when he suddenly heard someone among his men trembling: "Brother Zhou, look at that lamp, it doesn't seem to be quite right."
Zhou Zumo frowned and looked over. The lone lamp seemed to be blown by a gust of wind. It flew across the side of the ship and flew to the bow. It suddenly jumped into the air and drew a brilliant flame in the air. It landed on the shore and floated this way again.
When the sea travelers saw the fire approaching and the gods were trying to snatch it away, Zhou Zumo suddenly shouted: "Fuck you guys."
All the seafarers took out their weapons and formed a formation.
When Zhou Zumo saw the light drifting closer and closer, his heart tightened and he shouted sharply: "Who is that person?"
The lights flickered on, revealing the figure of a man. His clothes were like pure gold, his cheeks were as white as snow, he had an eagle nose and phoenix eyes, and his eyebrows were raised like flying. Although he was handsome, for some reason, he always had an inexplicable evil aura.
His sleeves are very long, his right sleeve touches the floor, and his left hand comes out of the sleeve, with slim fingers, gently holding a brass oil lamp.
Zhou Zumo said in a shy voice: "Who are you? Why are you on my boat?"
The man smiled softly and said, "My surname is Quanhuodi, you may have heard of me."
Zhou Zumo murmured: "Your surname is Di?" Suddenly he was shocked and shouted out loud: "Nine Transformations Dragon King, Dongdao Dixi?"
The man smiled and said, "What an insight."
In an instant, Zhou Zumo felt his heart beating like thunder and his throat was dry. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Di Xi smiled and said, "Did Shen Laizi send you here? There seems to be no master named Zhou in the Tianbu."
Zhou Zumo was shocked again when he revealed his origins. He tried to calm down and sneered: "Zhou is just a pawn of the Tianbu, not a master."
Di Xi shook his head and said: "Wan Guizang died, and the eight tribes became more and more mixed. Even profiteers and villains became members of the Tian tribe?"
Zhou Zumo spat angrily: "Even if I am cunning and lustful, how can I be better than your Dongdao colluding with Japanese pirates and humiliating our ancestors?"
"Who said that our Dongdao teamed up with the Japanese pirates?" Di Xi looked cold, "Shen Laizi will try every means to tarnish the reputation of our Dongdao."
Zhou Zumo got a little braver and said loudly: "If you hadn't colluded with the Japanese pirates, why would you be here? Did Ryuzaki ask you to come here? Does he want to swallow up all the money?"
Di Xi smiled and said: "You are not stupid. It's just that it can't be regarded as collusion. Ryuzaki was originally my chess piece in Japan. I gave him the capital for his business, and most of the money he earned was mine. These years, he is called I asked him to buy the gun that Cripple Shen suffered so much from."
"Shen Laizi is worthy of being the Lord of the Heavenly Tribe. He has so many tricks up his sleeve that he allowed you, a ruffian and a profiteer, to pretend to be a pirate and steal away to Japan to buy muskets. It's a pity that he was too ambitious and wanted to buy a thousand muskets at once. That's why he came here After searching, I found Ryuzaki."
"Forget it, it's rare that Shen Laizi spared no expense to help me buy the gun. If Di Xi doesn't accept it, he will live up to his good intentions."
Everyone's expression changed, and Zhou Zumo shouted: "Everyone come up shoulder to shoulder."
All the seafarers were holding weapons and were about to take action when they suddenly saw Di Xi dispersed and transformed into a dozen figures, one on top of another, like a golden dragon wagging its tail, passing by the scene, only to hear the sound of clanging, three The sea guest's sword fell to the ground, his eyes were straight, there was a small hole in his forehead, and blood was flowing like a stream.
With a chuckle, the phantoms dispersed and reunited, and merged into one person again. Di Xi held the copper lamp in his hand and stood on the spot, his demeanor extremely leisurely.
Zhou Zumo shouted out loud: "Dragon Escape?"
Di Xi smiled and said: "As expected of a pawn of the Tianbu, he is quite knowledgeable."
He spoke with a smile, and the light from his pair of phoenix eyes fell on all the sea visitors. They were all chilled to the bone and their hair stood on end.
Before Zhou Zumo could speak again, Di Xi suddenly turned to look at a corner of the darkness and said coldly: "Who is there?"
A woman's laughter came from the darkness, and then an awkward Chinese voice came out: "You are better than those idiots, and you were able to discover us."
After the words fell, three figures suddenly walked out of the darkness. Everyone looked at him in surprise. The young man was wearing a green robe, also a Tang Dynasty costume. He stood tall and majestic. Just standing there made Di Xi feel inexplicably nervous. feeling.
Behind the man, there are two girls, one tall and one short. The taller girl is wearing the costume of a Japanese goddess. She has bright eyes and white teeth, without makeup, and her eyes are as bright as the stars.
The petite girl, with a breath like an orchid, a beautiful smile, a strange purple light in her eyes, and a nine-foot long sword on her back, it is Song Xing and his men who kidnapped slaves, Yu Shenzi, and Andiluo.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Song Xing looked at Zhou Zumo and asked, "People from Xicheng?"
Zhou Zumo was a little confused, but he still nodded and said: "Not bad."
Song Xing nodded lightly, then turned to Di Xi and said, "Brother Di, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Brother Di is even more charming than before. I want to go to Xicheng and I need to requisition this person's ship. Can Brother Di treat me as if I haven't seen you?" Pass them?"
Di Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Song Xing's familiar face, and asked with some surprise: "Are you... Ning Bukong?"
More than ten years ago, in the battle between West City and East Island, both sides suffered numerous casualties. As one of the four East Island masters, Di Xi naturally fought against Ning Bukong, the leader of West City's Fire Department.
But since Wan Guizang died mysteriously and the Fire Department was destroyed, Di Xi never saw Ning Bukong again, thinking that this person had died in the internal strife in Xicheng that year.
Unexpectedly, I would see him in Japan, a land of Japanese invaders, who had disappeared for more than ten years.
Zhou Zumo was shocked when he heard Ning Bukong's name. Although he was a pawn in Xicheng, he had been in Xicheng for a long time and had experienced the rebellion of the Water and Fire Divisions. He naturally knew who Ning Bukong was and felt a sudden feeling in his heart. despair.
This trip to Japan is really not going well. First, we met Di Xi, one of the four masters of the East Island, and now there is Ning Bukong, a remnant of the Fire Department. If he and the others are hit by any one of them, they may not survive. It can be said.
Compared with Zhou Zumo's surprise, Di Xi was even more surprised. You must know that Ning Bukong looked like a middle-aged man back then, but now more than ten years later, the person in front of him looked like a young man. How could he not be surprised by his appearance.
Di Xi thought for a while, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said, "You have disappeared for more than ten years, and the reward for your arrest in West City has not been cancelled. You dare to go to West City alone. Could it be that Brother Ning has gained new support in these years?"
Ning Bukong used to be famous for his wisdom in the West City, so Di Xi looked at him with vigilant eyes the first time he saw Ning Bukong.
Song Xingyi raised his eyebrows: "Brother Di, do you want to weigh me?"
"Why not!"
Before Song Xing could say anything, Di Xi's figure had already dispersed, crossing a distance of more than ten meters, and rushed towards Song Xing.
when!
The tearing sound of the strong wind could be heard. At some point, Andiro had already stood in front of Song Xing, and slashed towards Di Xi with a huge long knife.
Di Xi's figure changed unpredictably in the air, bringing out phantoms. However, no matter how he changed, Andiro's footsteps could keep up with his bright changes, and the long sword maintained a slashing posture and slashed at him.
