Chapter 2: Bloodshed on the battlefield and escape from the Immortal Gate
Chapter 30: Invulnerable to all poisons
"superior!"
As the saying goes, there is no point in not knowing. These people are really bad and do everything based on instinct. In their opinion, since Ye Feng ran away, he was obviously afraid of them. They didn't know who yelled and swarmed up one by one with howls.
Just to meet them is death.
With Ye Feng's erratic body skills, their unstructured attacks were all aimed at killing people.
Although these people were ignorant, they were not stupid. In the blink of an eye, dozens of them were killed, and some of the heads that flew up did not even fall to the ground. The remaining people finally woke up.
This man is not a lamb to be slaughtered. He is clearly a killing god, a harvester of human heads, and the King of Hell who is urging people to die. If he doesn't run away now, he will wait until later.
This is what a rabble is like. Attacks are based on noise, swarming, and without any structure.
Even if they were to escape, they would be like birds and beasts. Some of the timid ones would already have weak legs and knees, and they would just kneel on the ground and kowtow as if they were pounding garlic. All they could do was shout for mercy.
Ye Feng did not leave anyone alive. This was something Hong Ling had already explained, and there was no way he could sabotage the plan.
When they returned to the ferry, Hong Ling and the other three were safe and sound, and Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The boatmen gathered at the stern of the ship with no intention of coming to check. Obviously they knew something was going on here and didn't want to get into trouble.
Ye Feng did not make things difficult for them. Since these people did not take action, they were not accomplices of the killers. Ye Feng could not find a reason to kill them.
He has no memory now and lacks the ability to judge things. He only has one principle, everyone who wants to kill him will be killed. How to deal with other matters is to follow Hongling's arrangements.
It would take time for Hong Ling and the others to recover, so Ye Feng was not in a hurry and just guarded them with the Overlord Spear.
Time passed slowly, and it was too quiet. The boatmen finally couldn't stand it any longer, and one person cautiously walked towards the bow of the ship.
"ah!"
When the man saw Ye Feng standing on the bow of the boat with a gun, he yelled in panic and sat down on the ground.
"Boom!"
Ye Feng didn't say anything, he just hit the Overlord gun on the deck. The man was immediately frightened out of his wits. He turned over and knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said in a trembling voice:
"Master, please spare your life, Master, please spare your life!"
"snort!"
Ye Feng still didn't speak, just snorted coldly.
In fact, Ye Feng wanted to ask these boatmen, but it was not convenient for him to ask.
He is now pretending to be Jiang Meiliang, wearing a military uniform and only showing most of his face. It is difficult for people who are not familiar with him to distinguish him.
But he is a man. As long as he speaks, even a fool can hear it, and his pretense will naturally be revealed.
These boatmen may not know anything at all, but as soon as his identity is exposed, they will have to be killed to silence him.
After all, as long as these people return safely, they will inevitably be interrogated, and it is impossible to hide them.
"Military Lord, spare your life! We don't know anything. We have to do what the Caogang people do, and we have to do it!"
The foreman of the ship was pressed against the deck. He dared not lift his head but kept begging for mercy.
Ye Feng didn't understand what the Cao Gang was. He thought it was some kind of private gang.
In fact, he could tell from the level of previous killers that those people were so unprofessional, even the weapons in their hands were of all kinds.
Obviously, you just follow your own temperament and use whatever comes easily. This is a sign of lack of training.
And I'm afraid they can't figure out who they want to kill, because when Ye Feng came ashore, it could be seen from their wonderful expressions.
Of course, these people dare to kill people at will in broad daylight. I'm afraid they are not good birds. They are accustomed to lawlessness and death is not a pity.
The boatman didn't hear Ye Feng's reply for a long time, so he bravely raised his head and took a peek, only to find that Ye Feng was staring at him. He was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground and didn't dare to move again.
The half-stick incense didn't last long. When Hong Ling recovered, he saw Ye Feng standing with a gun standing on the bow of the ship. The boatman was lying on the ground and didn't dare to move.
"Go and bring our horses!"
Hongling stood up and said something, and the boatman rolled and crawled towards the cabin as if he had been granted amnesty.
Brothers Zhigao and Zhiyuan also recovered at this time. The two looked at each other. Although they still couldn't figure out what happened, they didn't say much and followed Hongling and Ye Feng off the ferry.
There were nine boatmen in total. After leading the horses to the shore, they looked at the pile of corpses scattered on the shore. They were so frightened that they all fell to the ground.
"snort!"
Hong Ling glanced at these boatmen, snorted coldly, and said:
"You actually assisted Zhou in his evil deeds and tried to kill the imperial officials. You should have all been beheaded in public, but the good commander was kind and thought that you didn't know it, so he spared your life.
However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided. You should return to Jiangling City immediately and plead guilty to the government on your own.
The good commander's business is urgent, and he will come to investigate in person afterwards. Anyone who escapes will be punished as an accomplice, and the nine clans will be implicated, and they will be killed without mercy."
"Thank you so much, Marshal, for knowing everything! These people are members of the Cao Gang. They usually bully us boatmen, but today they dared to intercept and kill even the imperial officials. We will report to the government when we get back and bring them to justice."
Most of the boatmen didn't dare to move. There was only one person, probably the boss of the boat, who had seen a little bit of the market. He raised his head slightly and said.
"Tell that dog officer to thoroughly investigate what happened today. The good commander will investigate the matter himself when he returns to Beijing!"
After Hong Ling said this coldly, regardless of the reaction of the boatmen, she nodded to Ye Feng, got on her horse and left.
The four of them were speechless. After galloping for nearly an hour, they had already left the Jialing River far behind them. At this moment, a huge mountain lay in front of them.
The originally wide road became narrow and winding here, and after circling around the foot of the mountain several times, it disappeared.
"This is called the Lower Mountain Village. It is the largest mountain village at the foot of Falling Star Mountain. After passing here, we will officially enter the mountainous area. We need to find a guide here and prepare some supplies and consumables along the way."
Hong Ling reined in his horse and pointed to a village a hundred meters away from the road.
Ye Feng: "Oh! Let's go into the stronghold now!"
Hongling: "No! The village does not welcome outsiders. We only need to wait for a while at the thatched pavilion, and someone from the village will come."
"Jiang Feng, how come you didn't get the Yin Yang Sujin Powder? Are you immune to all poisons?"
The thatched cottage was quite spacious. As soon as the four of them sat down, Hong Ling couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know about that. I don't feel anything anyway."
Ye Feng couldn't tell anything, he couldn't even figure out what Yin Yang Sujin Powder was.
"Well!"
Hong Ling himself realized that the question was nonsense. He thought about it and said:
"Yin Yang Sujin Powder is divided into Yin and Yang powders, which are effective when taken orally, through smoke inhalation, or through skin contact.
I suspected that we had been targeted a long time ago, because when we had breakfast at the inn, we felt there was a burning smell.
The inn actually burned incense. I thought it was strange at the time, but I tried it with poison test beads and found nothing, so I ignored it.
I also smelled the same fragrance after boarding the ferry. I was confused for a moment, but unfortunately it was too late."
