A group of people who were not fishermen got off the fishing boat and walked through the crowd with calm expressions.
The Dengzhou fishermen passed by this group of people, and neither party even made eye contact, let alone clearly saw the appearance of this group of people.
A group of people of unknown origin have gradually merged into the stream of people, like trickling into the sea, becoming invisible.
The fishermen of Dengzhou, who had been discussing the important events of the imperial expedition to the east just a moment ago, continued to walk towards their fishing boats. They were all people who wanted to make a living, and the important matters of the imperial court were just a topic for discussion in their free time.
After walking a few steps, a fisherman stopped and frowned: "No, I always feel a little unsteady..."
"What's wrong with you? Do you have any premonition that there will be storms and waves when going out to sea today?" Another fisherman asked quickly, and the faces of the other fishermen also became solemn.
The fishermen's premonition is unclear. It seems that there is a mysterious force reminding the fishermen something.
Every time you go to sea is an adventure for your family and life. If you are unlucky, a wave will hit you on the vast sea and your whole family's life will collapse.
Therefore, whenever a fisherman says that he has a bad premonition, others will definitely take it seriously and will never risk going out to sea. It doesn't matter if he waits a few more days.
It doesn't matter whether they are superstitious or ignorant, because they are poor, the burden of the whole family falls on them, and they cannot afford to lose.
The fishermen were all worried, but this fisherman shook his head and unconsciously looked at the group of people who didn't look like fishermen just now.
"This group of people is on the wrong track, and I feel uneasy..." the fisherman murmured.
When the fishermen saw that he was not talking about going out to sea, they couldn't help but feel relieved, and they all laughed and scolded him for worrying too much.
"No, you don't understand. They passed by me just now. Not only did I know that they were not fishermen, but I also felt that they had a strange smell..." The fisherman blushed in defense.
"What's the weird smell?"
The fisherman struggled to find words to describe it. After a long while, he said: "There is a dealer named Wang Ada in our fish market. He not only collects fish, but also kills them. He has been killing fish for more than 20 years, and a fish was cut open in the blink of an eye in his hands.
It's clean. Over the past 20 years, hundreds of thousands of fish have died in his hands..."
The other fishermen nodded, everyone knew this person.
The fisherman sighed and said: "Wang Ada has committed many crimes over the years. Even when he is not killing fish, we can always feel a chill on his body when we get close to him. He is obviously a very kind person, but there is no one around him."
Dare to joke with him, no one even dares to get close to him..."
After racking his brains for a while, the fisherman said: "The group of people just passed by me, they smelled the same as Wang Ada, that is... that's right, hey, anyway, it makes people's hair stand on end and makes them feel uncomfortable all over.
Feel."
When describing Taimo Lake, fishermen don’t understand.
The ranger behind him, who had followed along and listened to the stories, raised his eyebrows.
Fishermen are uneducated and cannot describe what it feels like, but rangers know it very well.
This feeling is called "murderous".
Killers who have saved a lot of lives in their hands usually have this smell on their bodies, and Ranger himself has it, but fortunately he has not killed many people, and his murderous aura is very weak.
"Are you murderous? Interesting..." The ranger murmured, turning to look in the direction where the group of unknown people disappeared, with an inexplicable smile flashing in his eyes.
The fishermen gathered together and they were also discussing.
"What's wrong with that group of people? What does it have to do with us? Even if they are gangsters, that's a matter for the government to take care of. Let's take a walk and get on the boat. The whole family is hungry."
The fisherman who discovered the problem hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth.
"No, this group of people came here with bad intentions. I'm afraid something will happen. Follow them and have a look. Don't delay going to sea."
As he said that, the fisherman turned around and chased after him.
The other fishermen looked at each other, and after making eye contact, they followed helplessly.
The ranger behind him was also a little helpless and murmured: "Knowing that the route is wrong, a group of fishermen still take the initiative to cause trouble. Isn't it stupid?"
After hesitating for a moment, the ranger also followed.
This is the convenience of being a freelancer who doesn't work and has no leader. You can do whatever you want, as you please.
The fishermen left the harbor and found traces of the group of people outside Dengzhou City, dotted far behind.
After paying attention and looking carefully, the fishermen discovered more things that were wrong.
The group of people in front were all carrying simple luggage and baggage. Although they were all dressed like fishermen from the Tang Dynasty, their waists were bulging, and they didn't know what they were hiding.
What's more important is that the few words they spoke floated in the wind, but they didn't know where the dialect came from, and the fishermen didn't understand a word.
After a long time, a fisherman slapped his thigh and exclaimed in surprise: "It's Goguryeo! We had a fight with the Goguryeo fishermen, and this is how the Goguryeo people speak!"
The other fishermen also nodded in surprise.
"Hurry and report to the governor's office that a Goguryeo spy has sneaked into Dengzhou!" the fisherman said hurriedly.
A fisherman turned around and ran quickly towards Dengzhou City.
The remaining seven or eight fishermen followed the group of Goguryeo people leisurely. The fishermen looked very nervous. They had only fished all their lives, and they had no skills at all in tracking and inquiring. If they were discovered by the other party...
"The fourth child has gone to report to the government, should we follow him?" a fisherman said anxiously.
"Why did the Goguryeo spies suddenly come to our Dengzhou? Aren't they being defeated by our king's army? Are they still in the mood to come to Dengzhou to spy on some military intelligence?"
"Bah! Dengzhou is just a naval station in Hong Kong. Nowadays, naval ships are cruising in the waters of Goguryeo and anchored in Xiongjin City. Where is there any military information in Dengzhou for them to spy on?"
A fisherman with a rugged look and a beard said gruffly: "Didn't you think of something?"
"What's the matter?"
"We were still discussing at the harbor just now that Li Shuai, the grandson of the British Duke, has been recalled to Chang'an by the emperor to recuperate from his injuries. He will be disembarking from our Dengzhou soon. Li Shuai is a hated enemy of the Goguryeo people. You said, this group of Goguryeo spies
Sneaking into Dengzhou, will you..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then horrified.
"Don't tell me, it seems to be possible, otherwise I really can't think of what else this group of spies could do when they come to Dengzhou..." A fisherman murmured, rubbing his chin.
Another fisherman asked doubtfully: "Li Shuai is such a high-ranking and powerful figure. He has thousands of followers who come and go, and his personal guards are on guard at all levels. With just a dozen Goguryeo spies, how can they get close to Li Shuai?"
"I heard a story told by a scholar in the village. He said that in the late Qin Dynasty, there was a good man named Zhang Liang. He set up traps on the way of the First Emperor's patrol and assassinated the First Emperor with a giant crossbow. What Zhang Liang could do, wouldn't this group of spies be able to do it?
?”
Everyone froze, and their expressions became more serious.
A fisherman gritted his teeth and said: "If this is the case, we must not allow this group of spies to succeed. Li Shuai is a hero of the Tang Dynasty. The hero did not die in battle, but was murdered by Xiao Xiao. Isn't it too cowardly?"
"That's right! Li Shuai is a figure in the sky. Although we are just fishermen, we have all received Li Shuai's kindness. Without Li Shuai's bloody battles, how could we fishermen be so proud today?"
With a few words of encouragement, this group of fishermen became enthusiastic.
"It's done! The lowly people are willing to clear the way for Li Shuai and eliminate the traitors, and give Li Shuai a smooth way to return home safely!"
The bravery of an ordinary man, with blood splattering in five steps, in the name of righteousness, he will die a hundred times without regrets.
