    ?

    The Humen garrison is only a few hundred people, and the two sides add up to only a thousand, and the naval battle is completely crushed. The only foot battle that is stronger than the Hongqi sailors, but when they encounter freaks like Li Yan, Black Rider, and Cha Xiaodao, they will collapse at the touch of a touch.  normal.

    No matter what Li Yan said, he fought on the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, so he was very handy in command.  However, more than half an hour later, more than half of the officers and soldiers were killed and injured, and they broke up and fled. The Red Flag Gang only lost a dozen people, which can be said to have won a complete victory.

    Li Yan didn't intend to kill them all, he had already accepted Zhuo Huxing's head.

    Originally, Zhuo Huxing's sword glow greatly aroused Li Yan's interest. After this incident, he must have this skill in his purchase authority, but the two fought for a few rounds, and Li Yan  He was a little disappointed when he found that the blade light was no more than three inches long, and it was far from the effect of Miaoyinniao's man's saber aura.

    Witchcraft, saber qi, at least in terms of the strength shown so far, the difficulty of this fruit is not too high, but Li Yan has such a feeling, it is really the previous Yan Fu incidents, all kinds of accidents happened frequently  , due to the increasing difficulty.  In fact, such intensity is Yan Fu's normal state.

    However, don't think that the Yan Fu incident must be very easy.

    This time he broke into Humen in one go, and Li Yan also had a more direct understanding of the fighting power of the Red Flag Gang.  To put it simply, Gao Ligui is a sharp knife. Although most sailors are average in strength, they are also good at sea.

    The artillery level of the Hongqi gang's ships is generally higher than that of the government navy, but I heard that the shipyard of the government army can produce a kind of lucky boat with a length of more than 200 meters, but Li Yan has not seen it.

    There is just one thing, this place cannot stay for long.

    Humen is only one of the eight estuaries of the Xijiang River. The last time the government raided Lantau Island, several naval fleets were dispatched together. However, Zhuo Huxing was the largest officer, so he was appointed as the commander. This time Li Yan was so bold that he beat the government.  Being caught off guard doesn't mean that Li Yan has taken Humen Haikou, at least on the shore, sailors like Hong Qi who are fishermen are really no match for the officers and soldiers of the Green Camp and the Brave Camp.

    If it is encircled and suppressed, the situation is in dire straits.

    So Li Yan divided into several teams and plundered wantonly in the town. The common people have no money to fish, which does not mean that other places are impoverished.

    Li Yan can't reason with you about official residences, temples, academies, and camps.

    Take as much as you can, and turn back to Lantau Island an hour later. Zha Xiaodao volunteered, and Li Yan was also happy to relax.

    He walked into Xinghua Building with his close brothers, shook off the sticky blood on his body, greeted the waiter with "hot water", and threw a few copper coins on the table.

    Xue Ba has a bad personality, which is why the previous scene happened.

    "Master Lin~, what shall we do?"

    Zhang Dong's tone was urgent.

    "Low your head, don't talk. If you ignore him, he will ignore you."

    The old man touched Zhang Dong's feet and said lightly.

    He took a bowl of soup and sipped it with a calm expression.

    Zhang Dong licked his lips anxiously.

    In normal times, if there are two teams of generals and guards, they will protect Master Lin and fight out.  Nor is it impossible.  But this time, in Humen Town, there were really only Master Lin and himself. There were hundreds of Zhuo Huxing's guards, so it was determined that this kind of thing would never happen.  That's all, but if something happens to Mr. Lin, he will be to blame for death.

    Thinking of the idea of ??micro-service private patrols, Zhang Dong really wanted to slap himself,

    There are all kinds of folk legends about the cruelty of pirates, such as eating human bones, skinning alive, and hanging corpses on the mast, all of which linger in Zhang Dong's mind at the moment.

    The little pirate downstairs showed a sense of indifference and disregard for human life, which opened the eyes of Zhang Dong, a scholar. If the pirates of the Red Flag Gang found out, the two of them would be in dire straits.

    "Brother Tianbao, are you hungry?"

    This is the little pirate talking.

    "Xiaoba, you have an appetite just after a fight?"

    It was a gentle and quiet male voice who spoke.

    "Yes, I'm hungry."

    Xue Ba agreed.

    "Hahaha~"

    While the two were chatting and laughing, Zhang Dong's heart changed: "Brother Tianbao? Boy Tianbao?!"

    He poked his head to look, but only took half a look. He didn't even see Tianbaozai's appearance clearly, and was dragged back by the old man beside him.

    ?"Um?"

    Li Yan raised his head abruptly. His robe corners were bleeding, his chest was open, his eyes were cold under his short hair, and he was holding the Huanlong Sword in both hands.  At this moment, like a lazy leopard, it stared at the upstairs.

    The old man was so angry that his hometown dialect burst out: "You should be a little stupid, kill a thousand dollars!" (You little bastard, you killed me this time.)

    "Water is coming! Water is coming!"

    The waiter handed over a basin of warm water,

    Li Yan stared upstairs for a while, then suddenly let out a sigh.

    He took off his gown and soaked in the water, wearing only a short jacket on his upper body. With a flip of his wrist, the 1.3 meter long sword disappeared. Since there are witchcraft in this world, Li Yan doesn't mind showing some strange tricks.

    "Shopkeeper, we are hungry, serve us food on the table. We will leave as soon as we finish eating. We won't cause you any trouble. If the government asks you, you can just tell the truth."

    Having said that, Li Yan called Xue Ba and the others to go upstairs.

    "Okay, okay, what does the strong man want to eat?"

    The waiter nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

    "What's for this table?" Li Yan stopped beside Zhang Dong.  He pulled a stool next to him and sat down.

    "What shall we eat?"

    The tip of Zhang Dong's nose was sweating, and the old man in black hat beside him held half a steamed bun and kept his head buried in silence.

    The atmosphere is awkward

    In Li Yan's eyes, a burst of black ripples spread, and it took a long time to subside.

    A large group of people surrounded one side, and the atmosphere was awkward.

    Li Yan spoke first:

    "What's the old man's name?"

    The old man trembled, shrank together like a quail, put his hands into his sleeves, and looked begging.

    "Small, my little old man's surname is Zhang, and he's here for business from out of town."

    "I hear your accent, from Jiangsu?"

    "Exactly."

    He bowed his body and apologized for a smile.

    Li Yan nodded: "What is the old man's business?"

    "Scholar's Four Treasures, small business, inkstones in Mozhou are very popular this year, and there are many people in Guangdong wanting them."

    "The business of inkstones is interesting. Can you tell me something about the market?"

    Li Yan laughed heartily.

    "The market for Duan inkstones is good, and the quality of the stones is outstanding. Banana leaves are white, emeralds are blue, and gold and fire are like that. They can be sold for a few hundred taels of silver. She inkstones are firm and moist, but Cantonese people don't know them, so the market is poor.  It costs eighty taels."

    The old man came at his fingertips.

    Li Yan touched the short inch, quite a bit of a bandit demeanor.

    "Old man, my head is only 500 yuan, and it only costs one inkstone. Your business is easy to do. I would like to invite you to our Lantau Island as a guest, and tell us how to get rich selling inkstones. What do you think?"  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
