Xiangjiang.
Cao Yang, Lin Bei, and Li Leping came here carrying the head of the manor owner. Their task tonight was not easy. They had to trade with the people organized by the king to exchange the head for the body of captain Zhang Xun.
But Yang Jian said at the previous captain meeting that even if the deal failed and Zhang Falcon's body was given up, the head of the manor owner would never be returned to the hands of the king's organization.
In other words, the three of them were not here to complete the transaction this time, but to retrieve Zhang Falcon's body.
"Here we go, this is where the deal is."
As a cool breeze blew by, the three people arrived at a pier.
The pier was deserted, not even a ship docked.
Because before their arrival, orders had been received here to blockade the entire dock and evacuate all nearby people from the area, so as not to affect the next operations.
"The person in charge of Xiangjiang doesn't seem to be here. Is he afraid that he doesn't want to come, or has something unexpected happened to him on our way here?" Cao Yang glanced around and said.
Lin Bei rubbed his bald head and said: "It is not easy to be the person in charge of Xiangjiang. I have read the files before. Supernatural incidents occur frequently in this place, and the person in charge is extremely dangerous. The person in charge has to be replaced almost every three months, until the headquarters is cruel.
, transferred Su Fan, who was originally qualified to nominate the captain, and the matter got a little better. I met him at the last captain meeting, but I didn't have much interaction with him."
"That's right."
Cao Yang nodded and said: "Su Fan was the last person in charge transferred to Xiangjiang. All the persons in charge before him died, and he is the only one who is still alive. Originally, the headquarters wanted to transfer Feng Quan here, but after considering
I gave up the idea when I got to Yang Jian."
"Forget it if Su Fan doesn't come. Maybe he has sensed the danger and hid in advance. I heard that his supernatural power can sense death in advance, so he can survive every supernatural incident. This ability is a bit
Like the spiritual boy who can predict the future." Lin Bei smiled: "It seems that we are not optimistic about this trip."
"The transaction will start in five minutes, so get ready." Li Leping said after being silent for a long time.
The two people looked at him with some surprise in their eyes, as if they remembered that there was another person beside them.
"Who are you? It can't be Li Leping, right?" Lin Bei asked.
Li Leping: "..."
Lin Bei smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I can't remember your appearance. Every time I see you, it's like looking at a stranger. I didn't know but thought it was a ghost that suddenly wandered nearby, which surprised me a little.
At first glance, although I know that Yang Jian asked you to come here to do something with this characteristic of yours, it does bring us some trouble sometimes."
"If the enemy calls me Li Leping in front of us, we won't be able to recognize him. We won't know whether to take action or stop. You must know that even a moment of hesitation during a fight may kill someone. Don't get me wrong.
I didn’t mean anything against you, I was just discussing the matter.”
Li Leping said expressionlessly: "If we really encounter the situation you mentioned, just take action directly. If the other party dies, it means he is fake."
"So confident, worthy of being a veteran captain." Lin Bei gave a thumbs up.
Cao Yang said: "Okay, now is not the time to chat, the time is coming, and the other party should be coming."
Lin Bei and Li Leping also knew the importance of the transaction, so they stopped talking and became vigilant.
The time to trade is coming soon.
At this moment, a light suddenly lit up on the dark sea not far from the pier, and a small fishing boat swayed towards this side.
As soon as the boat appeared, the three people's eyes immediately focused on it.
soon.
The boat docked, and a man in his forties or fifties came out of the cabin. This man was not a ghost master, but an ordinary person.
"What are you gangsters doing standing there? Come over and help." The middle-aged captain shouted loudly.
Cao Yang's face suddenly darkened. He was not angry because the captain called him a street boy, but because there was only such an ordinary person on this ship, and there was no one from the King's Organization at all. He might have been tricked.
"Let's go and take a look." Lin Bei said helplessly, stroking his bald head.
The three people walked over and used some strength to help the boatman stop the boat.
"A foreigner gave me a piece of cargo and asked me to come to the dock to trade with you. The item was on the ship and it was very heavy and I couldn't move it. The foreigner said that you would help unload the cargo," the boatman said.
"I'll go." Lin Bei jumped on the boat, then came to the cabin, and saw a box as expected.
The box was very heavy and made of gold, so it was impossible for ordinary people to move it.
But this was no problem for Lin Bei. He lifted the heavy box with one hand and jumped directly onto the dock.
"It's so powerful to be able to carry such a big box up." The boatman was surprised, thinking that Lin Bei might be a monk practicing martial arts, so he looked at it repeatedly.
Lin Bei ignored the boatman's words, but stared at the box: "Will Zhang Falcon's body be inside? If it is really inside, then the King's Organization was too honest this time and actually took the initiative to return it.
body."
"Just open it and you'll find out." Li Leping came over and opened the heavy box.
immediately.
The smell of rotting corpses hit the nostrils, making people almost want to vomit.
There is really a corpse in the box, but this corpse has been highly decomposed, and the body is shriveled. The internal organs and bones seem to have been hollowed out, leaving only a mutilated human skin, but it can still be determined by some physical characteristics.
It was clear that this person was Zhang Falcon.
"Damn it." Cao Yang couldn't help but curse.
The people from the King's organization had obviously stripped away all the supernatural power from Zhang Falcon's body, leaving only some insignificant and incomplete limbs.
"Put it away, take it back and cremate it, and find a place to bury it. After all, Zhang Xuan is also the captain of the headquarters, so it is a good thing to get the body back." Lin Bei said.
Cao Yang nodded.
At this time, the shipman said again: "Hey, the items have been inspected. Where are your items? I still have to send the goods back, and the other party is still waiting to receive the goods."
"Where is the other party waiting to receive the goods?" Cao Yang asked directly.
The boatman didn't hide anything and pointed in the direction of the sea: "There is a cargo ship over there on the sea, and the foreigner is waiting for me to go back and deliver the goods."
"Want to follow?"
Lin Bei grinned: "Maybe it's a trap. Leaving the dock means going to the other party's territory. We will be the passive ones then. Just as the other party doesn't dare to come here to trade, aren't they also worried about an ambush on our side? I
I advise you to give up this idea."
"Then what's the point of this deal? It's just to return Zhang Xun's body. They know that we can't return the manor owner's head so easily," Cao Yang said.
"Maybe it was just to deceive us and make us spend a lot of energy to deal with this transaction. The previous analysis by Lu Zhiwen and Yang Jian was very correct, so they asked three of us to come over instead of all the captains. I guess
Something must be happening in Dadong City right now," Lin Bei said.
Cao Yang nodded, thinking that this should be the case. It seemed that the owner of the manor had been given up by the other party.
"Looks like our trip was in vain," Li Leping said.
Cao Yang stopped talking, just threw the prepared box onto the boat, and then said: "This is the thing for the transaction, take this thing back to that person."
The boatman didn't care what was in the box and immediately sailed away from the dock.
"What's in there?" Lin Bei didn't know what was in it, so he asked curiously.
"Anyway, it can't be the head of the manor owner." Cao Yang did not disclose the specific contents.
Lin Bei saw this and didn't ask any more questions.
"Go back, don't waste time here anymore," Li Leping said.
Cao Yang and Lin Bei thought it was right. They didn't wait any longer and immediately turned around and left the dock.
Since you have been cheated, there is nothing you can do about it. After all, you have to come this time.
However, just as they turned to leave, suddenly, Cao Yang's cell phone rang.
A text message was sent.
"Be careful, you are in danger." The name of the sender of the text message is Su Fan, who is also the current person in charge of Xiangjiang.
"Um?"
Cao Yang frowned. At this time, Su Fan reminded himself that he was in danger. It was inappropriate. This transaction was clearly a scam. There was not even a single figure on the dock. The other party had no intention of showing up at all. The three of them just ran away in vain.
One trip.
"Su Fan reminded us that there is danger and asked us to be careful. It's strange." He put down his phone and still said the content of the text message.
Lin Bei also pondered: "It's indeed strange. No danger has been found so far. It's normal here. Let's not worry about it for now. Since others have reminded it, it must make sense. After all, it is right to listen to others' advice. After all, that Su
