Volume Six: Records of Guan Feng Yun Chapter Eight: Night Exploration of Lake Island

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The night is shrouded, there are thousands of stars, and the waves are surging on the vast lake.  The dotted sandbars and islands occasionally reveal towering shapes, and their dark outlines look like giant beasts from a distance, which makes people think a lot.  In the night, a lonely boat broke through the waves of the lake and sailed quickly to the depths of the lake.

    Hu Xiaotian stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his hands. The night wind blew against his face, the water was cool, and his heart felt peaceful.  Li Xuan'er had already traveled all night to deliver the message to King Yan's camp. If nothing unexpected happened, King Yan would definitely seize this opportunity to make amends to avoid incurring the wrath of the Ming Emperor.  For an emperor, even a concubine he would never favor would never be allowed to be defiled by another man.  I believe King Yan knows the pros and cons better than anyone else.  His letter was undoubtedly a timely help, which solved King Yan's urgent need and further deepened the friendship between the two.  With King Yan's relationship, dealing with the imperial court in the future will be more effective, which will be of great benefit to the future of the Jiuyi tribe.  Publicly and privately, he must ensure that Princess Mingzhu is safe and sound until King Yan leads his army to kill her.  So after leaving Linjiang Tower, he immediately rushed to the Luoma Lake, hired a fishing boat at a high price, and went to the island in the middle of the lake to find out.

    The old fisherman who drives the oar at the stern is familiar with the road and will not lose his way even at night.  I don¡¯t know how long it took, but I saw dots of lights jumping out in vain in front of me, as if they were connected with the stars in the sky, forming a magnificent scene.  The old fisherman said softly: "Mr. Hu, we have arrived at Carp Island. If you get closer, you will probably encounter the thieves patrolling the lake. We can't afford to offend you." Hu Xiaotian said warmly: "Thank you for your hard work, old man. Remember to keep a strict watch for me.  Secret." The old fisherman murmured: "Sir, it is said that there are hundreds of evil people on the island, all of them have bronze heads and iron arms, killing people without blinking an eye. Are you, are you too reckless?" Hu Xiaotian looked back and smiled lightly: "I will kill.  There are quite a few people passing by!" He raised his breath and submerged himself into the water.  The old fisherman stood on his head with cold hair and hurriedly turned around and returned.

    Seeing that there were still two or three miles away from the island, I suddenly saw a flash of fire, and two fast boats emerged from behind the island. Standing on the deck were several shirtless men, holding torches and holding swords on their backs, with strong evil aura.  Hu Xiaotian was in the dark, and the other party was in the light. Before their eyes could reach them, he had already dived into the bottom of the lake to avoid them.  The guards patrolling the lake were chatting and laughing, unaware that an enemy was invading, and roared away in the blink of an eye.

    Carp Island is a large island in Luoma Lake. It is narrow from north to south and long and narrow from east to west. The island has undulating hills and forests of vegetation.  In the southwest of the island, there is a crescent-shaped sheltered bay, which is also the gathering place for the Murong family's minions. It has docks, arrow towers, warehouses, and various houses and courtyards.  At this time, there were more than 20 ships moored in the harbor, all with their sails lowered and anchored, and no one was seen walking on the deck.  On the shore, there were bright lights and crowds of people. All kinds of noises, shouts, laughter, curses, and fights were mixed together, and the smell of blood and evil filled the air.  The guards on duty all around responded to the story in vain, and no one thought to take a second look into the lake. They were busy drinking and punching, having a great time.

    Hu Xiaotian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The island has become a world of its own. It has been stable for too long. Most people have lost their consciousness and have no discipline. They are just a mob.  As long as you don't meet a top expert on this trip, you won't be in danger.  Immediately, he swam straight to the dock. Without further ado, he easily climbed onto the cargo ship he was on during the day.

    The cargo ship rose and fell with the waves, not a single human voice could be heard, and it was as silent as a tomb.  As soon as Hu Xiaotianzhi landed, he secretly thought something was wrong and hurried down to the secret cabin to check - Tenggemu and Princess Mingzhu had disappeared!  Upon closer inspection, even the female slaves originally imprisoned in the bottom cabin have also disappeared!  Hu Xiaotian sighed, it was too late after all.  Princess Pearl is a rare and priceless treasure. How can Boss Wei let her go?  As early as when the officers and soldiers blocked the river for inspection, Boss Wei had evil thoughts. Unfortunately, he had too little experience in the Tengemu rivers and lakes and did not notice anything unusual.  Unexpectedly, the result was that the two of them must have been shot, captured by mistake, and transferred to the island for detention.

    Hu Xiaotian was determined. Tenggemu¡¯s life and death did not matter, but Princess Mingzhu could not make any mistakes.  Otherwise, when King Yan is angry, everyone on the island will be shattered to pieces!  However, Princess Pearl has a special status and is a hot potato. Presumably the leader here has no right to decide how to deal with it.  Before Murong Bufan's instructions arrived, Princess Pearl should not be in any danger for the time being. At most, she would be under strict supervision.  As soon as I thought of this, I quickly walked up to the deck and looked up.

    ???????????????Although a sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs.  There are also pubs, casinos, casinos and other places for people to have fun on the pier. A little further away are rows of warehouses.  Located in the center is a large mansion with blue bricks and gray tiles, surrounded by many residential houses like stars over the moon.  This mansion occupies a large area, with towering courtyards and pavilions. There is a huge archway in front of the main entrance. There are watchtowers at the four corners of the courtyard. There are guards patrolling outside the walls. From a distance, it looks majestic and inviolable.

    That¡¯s it!  Hu Xiaotian took advantage of the shadow and flew ashore without hesitation.

    The pier is full of half-drunk sailors and samurai. Looking at their clothing and weapons, one-third are foreigners from overseas.  These energetic guys gathered togetherThere were several piles of people competing with each other, some wrestling with each other bare-chested, or fighting with each other with swords drawn, which attracted cheers and applause from the audience.  Taking advantage of the situation, Hu Xiaotian knocked out a drunkard, stripped him of his clothes, put on his clothes, and then swaggered through the chaotic crowd until he reached the vicinity of the mansion.  With his eyesight and skill, it was easy to evade the guards. He climbed over the wall in a blink of an eye and sneaked in from the backyard without anyone noticing.

    It was already dark, and the house was so quiet that you could hardly see servants and servants moving around.  Hu Xiaotian tiptoed through the corridor and across the courtyard, heading towards the place where the lights were brightest.

    At this time, the meeting hall was still brightly lit, and in order to dispel the heat, the windows on all sides were opened wide for ventilation, so there was no need to worry about anyone peeping.  Looking through the window, the person sitting in the front seat is a middle-aged man, with a fair face and no beard, quite wealthy, and a peaceful appearance that is harmless to humans and animals.  The first person on his left hand side was a Fuso swordsman with a face as cold as iron. His eyes were slightly lowered and he held a long sword in his arms. He seemed to be indifferent to the outside world.  On his right side were Murong Gao and the Red Lotus Saint.  The rest of the people participating in the discussion were all experienced, fierce and ruthless characters, with different expressions and thoughts.

    The white-faced man stood up from his seat, walked back and forth a few steps, and said slowly: "This matter is of great concern. If you are not careful, my Murong family will face disaster! Give me the order, including Boss Wei."  Everyone on the inner ship was put into the dungeon and imprisoned. Tell them to keep their mouths tight, but if there is a hint of news, they will all be killed together! After the storm is over, they will be sent to Honshu Island and they will never come back!" He is Murong!  The extraordinary clan brother Murong Buyi is in charge of the transit hub here and is a core member of the Murong family. How could he not know the dangers and dangers of hiding Princess Pearl?  But once something is done, there is no turning back, and now it is too late to let go of the relationship.  If he hadn't been loyal to Boss Wei and others for many years, killing them all would have chilled the other subordinates, and they would have sunk into the lake to feed the fishes immediately.  His grandmother's, you bastards can't rob anyone, but you're going to rob the emperor's woman?

    "Yes!" A big man stood up immediately and went to deliver the order without mentioning it.

    Murong Buyi rubbed his forehead and said: "I will send a letter to the head of the family Feige, truthfully report what happened, and ask him to make the final decision." After a pause, he continued: "Before I receive the reply from the head of the family, then  A girl who claims to be a princess is kept alone in Tingyu Pavilion. She must send a trustworthy person to serve her closely and supervise her strictly. No omissions are allowed. Any man who comes close to harass you will be killed without mercy! Niece Honglian, please spare some time.  Please advise her not to do anything drastic and stupid."

    The Red Lotus Saint pursed her lips and smiled, and said with deep meaning: "Uncle Murong, if you are really in trouble, how about you transfer the person to us for placement?"

    Murong Buyi smiled and said: "Niece Honglian, it's not that I look down on you, but this girl's identity is too sensitive. Do you really have the right to make a decision? Besides, we have worked so hard and hard, so we can't give it away in vain."

    The Red Lotus Saint said: "I am one of the three great saints in the religion. Even the Holy Mother will not easily overturn the promises I made. Moreover, you and I have been cooperating for a long time. My character is obvious to all. Could it be that my uncle still  Are you afraid that I will break my promise? I am willing to exchange ten thousand taels of gold and ten dozen pearls for her, and I ask my uncle to fulfill my promise."

    Murong Buyi sighed: "I already know Hong Lian's sincerity, but how can I bear to bring trouble to the east and make the Qinglong Society fall into a situation of embarrassment from all sides? Let me think about it again."

    The Holy Maiden of the Red Lotus cursed secretly: Old fox, it is clear that he is trying to catch you, but he is trying to manipulate you!  He smiled and said: "Uncle Murong is kind, righteous and wise, and has always been admirable. I happen to have a bottle of 'Nine Turns Concentration Pill', how about honoring my uncle as well?" Knowing that the more eager he is, the more the other party will be able to control the conditions he proposes.  The more demanding you become, but seeing that you are about to get enough chips to influence the general trend of the world, and you are about to make a success, you can't care about so much!

    Everyone¡¯s eyes glowed green, and even the cold-hearted Fuso Swordsman was slightly moved.  Murong Gao rubbed his hands together and said eagerly: "Fourth Uncle, that woman is an eyesore. I can't let her go. It's best to leave it to Honglian." You must know that taking one pill of Ningshen Pill is equivalent to three months of hard training.  A panacea for increasing internal strength.  If a deal is reached and everyone who sees it gets a share, wouldn¡¯t everyone be happy?

    Murong Buheli said: "How many times have I told you that young people should be calm and think twice before taking action when dealing with major events. The friendship between our two families is here, how can it be replaced by a mere pill? There are so many elders  You didn¡¯t even say anything, what are you doing so frivolously?¡±

    The Red Lotus Saint patiently said: "I wonder what else uncle needs? Everything is easy to discuss."

    Hu Xiaotian was lying on the tree, watching the two parties bargaining, and couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity - someone in the world dared to trade with the emperor's concubine!  Although Princess Mingzhu was not really favored by Zhu Yuanzhang, it was certain that she would marry into the Ming Dynasty royal family.  If she disappears mysteriously, not only will the Ming Dynasty lose face, but the Mongolian royal family will also be humiliated. At that time, there will inevitably be a verbal confrontation between the two countries, with mutual complaints and accusations.  If at this delicate moment, Qinglong will?Using the Pearl Princess in his hand to make a fuss can easily ignite the grudges between the Ming Dynasty and the Bei Yuan Dynasty, prompting the two countries to fight and bleed thousands of miles.  If Chen Tianye was more vicious and colluded with Japanese pirates to launch an invasion at the same time, burning, killing, and looting along the coast, the Ming army would be in a situation where they only care about one thing and lose the other.  When the Ming Dynasty's elites are exhausted and the hinterland is empty, the Qinglong Society can spread rumors, confuse people's hearts, seize the opportunity to raise the flag to rebel, and reap the benefits of being a fisherman.  Hu Xiaotian thought of the tragic scene of raging war and bones everywhere, and seemed to hear the cries of countless women and children, and he couldn't help but shudder.

    At this moment, the Fuso Swordsman seemed to feel something, his eyes suddenly opened, his cold and sharp gaze shot straight at him, and he shouted: "Who is it?!" Before he could finish his shout, he jumped into the air like a night owl.  .

    Hu Xiaotian was secretly awestruck. His breathing was only three points heavier. This person could detect abnormalities from a few feet away. He was a formidable enemy!  He slapped the tree trunk decisively with both palms, and the broken branches flew away. He jumped upside down with the help of his strength, followed by a somersault in the air, and flew quickly towards the outside of the courtyard.

    "Catch him, life or death!"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Beep!  The whistle sounded sharply, and cold light flashed from all directions. The next moment, the bowstring suddenly sounded, and dozens of feather arrows rushed to shoot.

    Suddenly, a ball of sword light rose into the sky like the scorching sun, suddenly blooming dazzlingly.  The sword light was everywhere, and the arrows were falling like rain, unable to touch the corners of Hu Xiaotian's clothes at all.  Seeing that the bow and arrow attack was ineffective, the archer quickly retreated, and suddenly a loud shout rang out: "Go!" The swords flashed and lightning flashed, and the cold wind mingled. Five men in black stared at them with blood-red eyes and pounced forward like hungry wolves.  The angles, sequences and directions of the attacks of these five people were perfectly coordinated. Especially, every blow was made with all the strength of the whole body. They were willing to sacrifice their lives and move forward indomitably. It was a posture that was completely risking their lives!  The crazy and violent murderous intent of dying together with the enemy is as condensed as the essence. If the opponent's will is not strong enough, his muscles and bones will become weak from fear without even touching him.

    Hu Xiaotian couldn't avoid it, let alone stop it. A ray of sword energy that was cold to the bone was pressing against the vital point in his back. It was obvious that the Fusang swordsman was chasing after him. What's more, Murong Buyi could sit on one side, so how could he be weak in martial arts?  As long as there is a slight lag and is attacked by two powerful men, it will be difficult to survive.  No longer hiding his strength, the World Destroying Overlord was operating at full strength, soaring into the sky with a majestic momentum like a demon, actually forcing the murderous aura emitted by his opponent to roll back.  The five people's expressions changed with horror, but they were unable to dismount from the tiger, so they roared in unison as if to take courage and collided with each other desperately.

    Poof!  The sword light slashed down like a broken bamboo, and countless pieces of flesh and blood flew away in all directions.

    Hu Xiaotian Sword walked with him, passing through the pink blood mist, and suddenly flashed while running quickly, the sword light whirled, and two good heads shot straight into the sky.  In the space of a few breaths, he killed fifteen people in a row like he was chopping vegetables and melons. His clothes were soaked with blood, and he rushed up to the top of the outer wall without stopping.  "Eight grids!" Almost at the same time, a short and capable Fuso swordsman rushed from outside the wall and slashed into the wind while he was in mid-air. The sword was shining with lightning speed.  Even though Hu Xiaotian had fought hundreds of battles for the rest of his life, he almost didn't have time to react. His long sword whirled around and narrowly blocked the vital point of the upper plate.  There was a bang and sparks flew everywhere.  The swordsman's jaw was torn apart, and he flew backwards involuntarily, but the ferocious light in his eyes did not diminish at all. With a shake of his left hand, seven or eight strange-shaped poison darts suddenly shot out, and they were fierce and vicious.  Hu Xiaotian was extremely unhappy when he was suddenly attacked. Seeing that the other party was unwilling to give in, he couldn't help but became furious. He kicked off the wall with both feet and rushed high into the air. With a stroke of his long sword, the Ten Dragon-Slaying Axes of the Demon Sect's secret technique were like thunderbolts.  shoot down!

    "Stop!" A heartbreaking cry came from behind.

    Before the cry disappeared, the cold and dazzling sword light fell with a swipe.  An unbelievable look flashed in the swordsman's eyes, and a thin line of blood gushed out from his forehead, bridge of nose, chin, and chest. Suddenly, he heard a soft pop sound, and his whole body split into two pieces, with his internal organs rolling down and dripping with blood.

    After only a brief delay, the indifferent Fuso swordsman had already chased him three feet away.  His face was distorted, as ferocious as a ghost. He pulled out his hand amidst the roaring sound, and a beam of sharp sword light shot straight into the sky. The stone wall blocking the road collapsed with the force of the sword, and a huge gap was opened.  The next moment, the sword light extended and slashed down unstoppably, as if the god was angry and wanted to split the island with a sword!  This sword embodies the essence of swordsmanship, transcends the barriers of time and space, and vows to kill everything and destroy everything!

    Before the knife arrived, the murderous intention had already locked onto the target, not allowing him to break free and escape.

    Hu Xiaotian¡¯s scalp was numb. Isn¡¯t this such an unlucky trip that he actually met a unique swordsman?  !  How could such a powerful man stay on a deserted island and remain unknown?  Of course he didn't know at this time that his opponent was Oda Nagao, the leader of the Japanese pirates who traveled thousands of miles across the East China Sea!  And the one who just died under his sword was Oda Nagao's younger brother, Oda Jiro.  The hatred for killing his younger brother was irreconcilable. How could Oda Choo not be angry or resentful?  But when he saw that the energy of the sword was emptied, it was as fierce as the creation of heaven and earth. He hurriedly used the water-soft sword technique to intercept it layer by layer, and used the mental technique of using softness to overcome hardness to resolve the killing move.

    "Ding, ding, ding" The swords struck dozens of times in an instant, the sound was rapid and thrilling.  There was a loud bang at the end, and mud and rocks flew.  Hu Xiaotian doesn¡¯t accept itHe crashed into the house behind him without control, crashing through three walls one after another. His face was covered with dust, and he was in a very embarrassed state.  Fortunately, the black-grained pine needle sword is also a magical weapon. It has been tempered for thousands of times and can withstand the violent and unparalleled power of the sword. Otherwise, the sword will be broken and people will die!  Although he escaped death, a wound of more than a foot long was still opened on his chest by the sword energy, which was just a hair away from being disemboweled.

    Oda Nagao was astonished and became more and more angry. He tried his best but could not deal with an unknown soldier. He was embarrassed in front of everyone. How embarrassing it was!  He roared angrily: "Kill!" He paused and rushed forward with a knife.  With the murderous intention imminent, Hu Xiaotian immediately hit the wall with his palm and disappeared in a flash.  Oda Nagao was so angry that he waved his arms and slashed horizontally with his sword. There were several loud booms and several houses collapsed.  Just as the sword energy disappeared, a black figure suddenly jumped up from the dust flying all over the sky, running wildly without making a sound.  "Stop!" Oda Nagasaki's eyes were wide open as he slashed with his sword while raising his breath and chasing after him.

    Although this confrontation was short, it shocked the whole island.  No one needed to issue an order. The idle desperadoes seemed to have been given a shot of blood. They rushed out with shouts and rushed towards the rise and fall of the sword light. In the blink of an eye, they formed dozens of surging streams.  There were also many smart ones who jumped directly into the boats and rowed quickly towards the lake in an attempt to cut off the enemy's retreat on the water.
