They killed four brothers in a row. When the three of them returned, they were frustrated and angry, but not afraid. The army's discipline was lax and their fighting power was defeated, but they were not without elites. They were soldiers who had been through the bloody sea.
Han people also take life and death lightly, not to mention that they believe that there is only one person in the opponent, and killing four of their brothers is just a sneak attack. How can they be afraid other than anger? The opponent was wounded in the woods and escaped based on his familiarity with the terrain.
They wanted to call each other to the empty field in front of the hay shed for a duel.
"Damn it, that bastard Chen Qianhu, it was his job to search the ship, why did he let the fish that slipped through the net be hidden on the ship?" The big man holding the Mo knife had a scar on his face with a slanted nose. It was very ugly and he was cursing.
A look of resentment.
Fu Qinghe changed into old clothes worn by a boatman and chose this moment to stealthily kill him. No wonder he thought he was a pirate who had escaped on Xisha Island the day before yesterday. Unable to catch him, the three men did not continue the pursuit, thinking of waiting for the camp to arrive.
It is not too late for people to search the island. At this time, we must not give the opponent a chance to divide and attack.
When they arrived at the hut, there was no sign of the people left behind, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. The bearded military man held two short spears and asked in a rough voice: "Where did the two dogs go?"
"Chi!" The thin-faced man was the leader of the eight guards. He saw that the bows and arrows they left in front of the hay shed were missing. He felt something was strange. He said "chi" to silence him. He was about to lean down and take cover when he saw "poof"
An arrow shot out and pierced his shoulder hard.
"That beast kills two dogs!" The thin-faced man fell to the ground and yelled after being hit by an arrow. The man with two spears and a cheeked soldier threw a short spear towards the place where the arrow was shot, and then got up to dodge. However, the field in front of the hay shed was empty and there was no cover.
, Fu Qinghe opened his bow and shot another arrow when they were still forty steps away from the hut, making them unable to advance or retreat. In the blink of an eye, the second arrow came coldly. The bearded soldier wanted to use his spear to pluck the arrow, but there was no
He pushed it aside, just avoiding the vital point, and the sharp arrow pierced his ribs, and he screamed in pain. The last person saw that the man hiding in the house had amazing archery skills, and he knew that he would definitely die if he turned around and ran away, exposing his back to the opponent.
He rushed towards the hayloft, and when he was twenty steps away, an arrow pierced his chest, causing him to fall to the ground, causing a cloud of dust to rise up.
Lin Fu knew that the accuracy of bows and arrows was much worse than that of later generations of firearms. Whoever could shoot three agile people with a rifle at a distance of forty paces and within a few breaths must be considered a master with guns. Unexpectedly,
Fu Qinghe's attainments in archery are so high. But this also makes him more convinced that in this world, although personal force is more useful than in later generations, it is still very insignificant.
There were screams of panic in the hut, and the short spear thrown by the bearded soldier failed to disturb Fu Qinghe, but it pierced the chest of a toddler and the thigh of a teenager. What are these pampered county school children going through?
After several days of panic after being kidnapped, seeing my companion being killed now, how could words describe the excitement?
Some people were stunned, and some people screamed. The faces of Su Mei and Xiaoman were blackened by the lamp dust, but the panic in their eyes could not be concealed. The boy who had his chest pierced looked only eleven or twelve years old, and the boy who had his chest pierced was only eleven or twelve years old.
The young boy with exposed thighs was only fourteen or fifteen years old. His face was pale. He looked at the bleeding thigh. He didn't scream or struggle, but his eyes were full of deathly fear.
One dead and two injured outside, Fu Qinghe was watching with a bow and arrow; Lin Fu said to Chen Enze, Hu Qiaozhong, and Hu Qiaozhong: "Come and help me, I can save one person." They asked them to be careful with the boy who pierced the chest.
Picking him up, he tore off a strip of cloth from his body, tied the young man's thighs tightly, and made him lie flat before pulling out the short spear. Taking the broken knife from Chen Enze's hand, Lin Fu untied the young man's trousers.
He cut down to the root of his thigh to see the wound. It was lucky that the femoral artery was not punctured, but the thigh muscle was punctured and the damage was very large. He would bleed without stopping and eventually die of blood loss. He asked three teenagers to help him find something to cut it.
The injured person's injured foot was elevated. He pointed to the femoral artery point in Hu Qiaozong's groin and said, "Press here, this is the blood vein in the leg..." Then he turned back and asked Su Mei, "Do you have a clean cloth to bandage?"
Wound? As long as the bleeding can be stopped, it's no big deal."
"I have some here." A young man huddled in the corner pulled out a clean sweat towel and handed it over.
Lin Fu bandaged the young man's injured leg, then picked up the waist knife and the dagger and walked out. Fu Qinghe stood at the door holding a bow, one arrow on the string, one arrow in his mouth, fighting fiercely with the three arrows just now
, causing his wounds to burst, especially the knife wound on his shoulder. The blood had soaked into his clothes, but Fu Qinghe was fearless and stared into the distance with sharp eyes.
Scarface was already dead, shot in the chest by an arrow; the bearded man and the thin-faced man were both hit by arrows. Although it was not fatal, they still dared to lie down and hide in a low-lying place and curse while Fu Qinghe was holding a bow in front of the hay shed.
.
"Leave them half alive." Lin Fu said. He still had some questions to ask them. He couldn't just kill them all right now. He threw his sword aside and walked forward with his sword in hand. Fu Qinghe followed behind with an arrow.
.
Only then did the bearded man and the thin-faced man see clearly that the other party was actually two people. They had just cursed in an attempt to provoke Fu Qinghe to come and fight with them for a chance of survival. At this time, knowing that the situation was over, they kept silent.
"If you want to survive, put your hands on the back of your head and lie down and don't move!" Lin Fu shouted.
"You..." Whiskers grabbed the short spear and made a sudden attack. The hand holding the spear was shot through the shoulder by an arrow and plunged into the ground. Whiskers screamed in pain and struggled to stand up.
, Lin Fu took the short blade of the sword and slapped him hard on the back of the neck, causing his blood and flesh to fly, and made him lie down in the pit. The thin-faced man threw the knife out honestly, and according to Lin Fu's words,
His whole body was lying on the ground, his hands holding the back of his head.
Lin Fu picked up the short spear and knife. When he turned around, he saw that the young men had come out of the hut to watch the battle. He said to Chen Enze: "Come here and find something to tie these two people up..." Chen Enze was very alert and looked at the young man from beside him.
Begging for two belts, he ran over and tied up the thin-faced man.
"It should be tied like this..." Lin Fu handed the knife to Fu Qinghe and started to do it himself, showing Chen Enze how to tie the knot tightly. He also asked Chen Enze to learn how to tie the beard tightly, and then handed it to Chen Enze.
He gave him a waist knife and said: "It's easy to kill people. If they dare to move, you put the edge of the knife against their necks and give them a slight thrust..." Seeing Hu Qiaozhong behind him, he was also eager to try and kicked the short spear.
Go to his feet: "This is for you."
Xiaoman was helping Fu Qinghe treat his wounds when Lin Fu asked Su Mei: "I'll go to the beach to find salt. You can find two clean cloths. They should have water..."
"Where is the salt? They put water and food in another shed. Why don't you go look there?" Su Mei said.
"There is salt in the stone nests." Lin Fu said. This group of officers and soldiers hid people on the island. They did not want to attract the attention of passing pirates, so they banned fire. There may not be salt - the stone nests on the beach will disappear after the tide recedes.
Seawater will accumulate, cool and exposed to the wind and sun, the water will evaporate, and salt particles will precipitate. Lin Fu saw several stone nests covered with a layer of salt particles yesterday evening. He took the natural salt powder and dissolved it into the water.
It is much more reliable than sea water for anti-inflammation and disinfection of wounds.
Su Mei came over with two clean sweat towels, looked at Lin Fu lying on the stone nest and swept the salt grains with his hands, handed him the sweat towel to hold the salt, and said, "How do you teach these young people to kill?"
"Do they have a choice?" Lin Fu raised his head and glanced at Su Mei. Su Mei had not washed off the lamp dust on her face. She was wearing a boatman's shabby clothes, but her eyes, nose and facial features were exquisite, and her beauty could not be concealed. He sat up.
, sweeping the salt grains onto the sweat towel with his hand, and said, "Did Mr. Fu tell you who is leading that group of officers and soldiers?"
"I'm bringing you a sweat towel, who is it?"
"We need to interrogate them to find out who exactly it is. It should be among the first, second and third members of Ning Hai Hai Zhen. It is probably the chief general of Ning Hai Hai Zhen..." Lin Fu said.
"Ah!" Su Mei did not expect this to be the case, and was frightened by the arrogance and arrogance of a general in the army, and asked, "Why is this happening?"
"Do you know how much they are worth?" Lin Fu looked back at the young man in front of the thatched shed and asked Su Mei.
"..." Su Mei looked at Lin Fu doubtfully.
"The ransom silver offered by the Eastern Pirates was thirty thousand taels, but it's a pity that the shareholder pirate couldn't take it..." Lin Fu cursed secretly: Not to mention a ton of silver, a ton of copper would be a considerable fortune.
.
Lin Fu took the salt and Su Mei and returned to the thatched shed. The officers and soldiers had several barrels of fresh water in the thatched shed - the fresh water was also from the pirate ship, as well as dry food and dried meat - enough for them to drink for half a month.
, Lin Fu took a clay pot and dissolved the salt grains into the water, and asked Su Mei and him to help Fu Qinghe and the boy who had his thigh pierced clean the wounds, and then put a sweat towel soaked in salt water on the wounds to bandage them firmly.
At dusk, when the twilight faded, Lin Fu asked Chen Enze, Hu Qiaoguan, and Hu Qiaozhong to lead seven or eight strong and brave young men to take the two wounded prisoners to the grass shed and guard them, and asked Xiaoman to lead the people to guard them.
He put down the dry food, dried meat and water and went to another shed to rest. He discussed matters with Fu Qinghe and Su Mei outside.
"Master Fu, Xiaoman is young. I'm afraid she can't hide something in her heart. It's better not to let her know for the time being?" Lin Fu squatted on the ground and squinted at the sunset. There were several small sand islands under the sunset, but he couldn't see them.
To the shadow of 6th place.
"Well, don't let the little girl know." Fu Qinghe agreed with Lin Fu's opinion.
"What's the matter?" Su Mei asked, wondering: Xiaoman knew about the officers and soldiers pretending to be pirates, what else could she not know?
"The pirates who robbed the ship in Baisha County were brought by Du Rong. Mr. Lin and I were hiding in the stern of the ship. We heard what we heard with our own ears and it cannot be false," Fu Qinghe said angrily, "Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi will die with their eyes in peace..." Xiao Wu
He and Xiao Qi were his two apprentices, whom he regarded as his nephews. How could he not hate them when he saw them killed by pirates brought by Du Rong with his own eyes?
"Master Fu, please call me Lin Fu."
Fu Qinghe was polite and respectful, but Lin Fu was a little afraid to bear it.
"Why? Why did Du Rong do this?" It was hard for Su Mei to believe that this was true. She stopped the ship and stayed in Baisha County to perform for disaster relief. Du Rong generously agreed to donate thousands of dollars. How could he have lured the pirates here?
"Miss, do you still remember Mr. Du Jin'an and Du who came with Du Rong to listen to Miss play the piano when we were in Jiangning?" Fu Qinghe asked.
"What's wrong, isn't he Du Rong's clan brother?" Su Mei asked, thinking about the way the young man looked at her, she frowned slightly.
"I'm afraid this person is not that simple," Fu Qinghe told Su Mei some details of what he and Lin Fu heard while hiding underwater, "Du Rong was entrusted by the second young master to send the young lady to Jin'an in Eastern Fujian.
Go to the house..."
"Uncle Fu said he might be from the She family?" Su Mei asked. Jin'an Mansion in Dongmin County is the headquarters of the She family.
"The surname is a fake surname and the first name is a fake name. This Du Jin'an is most likely from the She family of Jin'an Prefecture..." Fu Qinghe said, "Recently there are rumors that the She family intends to surrender and join us. Maybe this person named Du Jin'an
The second young master is the key figure in the She family's sneaking into the mainland to negotiate peace secretly."
"..." Su Mei sat there speechlessly. Not to mention Fu Qinghe, Lin Fu heard about it with her own ears. Even if she didn't hear it with her own ears, many doubts about the matter pointed to Du Rong. She was Du Rong who invited Du Rong to Weiyang Mansion.
She was a singer at the family dinner in her old house. Although she stopped the boat in Baisha County with the intention of providing disaster relief, she only planned to leave in three or four days. It was only after Du Rong made a promise of ten days of gold that she decided to stay in Baisha County for ten days.
...Without Du Rong's cooperation, the pirates would not have been able to succeed so easily.
The mother-in-law was in chaos. Lin Fu shook his head and sighed. The second son of the She family, who had the important task of secretly asking for surrender and actually negotiating peace, was actually in the mood to flirt!
"Then what should we do?" Su Mei was a little at a loss.
"For the time being, I can only pretend that nothing happened." Lin Fu couldn't bear to see Su Mei's panic. Although she was still dressed in men's clothing and her face was not washed, her eyes were surprisingly clear and beautiful. Lin Fu didn't
He dared to look into her eyes and said, "Anyway, after Miss Su Mei returns to Jiangning, Du Rong won't know that Miss Su Mei has known the truth of the matter, so he won't do anything to Miss Su Mei. This secret will stay with us for the time being.
My stomach is healed."
"Well," Fu Qinghe affirmed Lin Zongyi's suggestion and said, "I'm afraid the She family's surrender is a foregone conclusion. Du Rong can't be overthrown by the She family's support behind his back. Besides, the fake second son Du Jin'an was behind the whole thing.
After the She family returns, who will be willing to take the risk of forcing the She family to rebel again?"
"Then what will they do?" Su Mei looked back at the hay shed. She was concerned about the future fate of the twenty-nine teenagers in the hay shed.
"Let's talk after we go in..." Lin Fu patted his butt and stood up.
