In the evening, the large ship that Lin Jue and Gao Muqing took arrived in the waters northwest of Peach Blossom Island. At the same time, the pirate boats that had been watching from a distance began to approach without concealment.
More than a dozen small island boats passed in front of, behind, left and right of the big ship. The shirtless and tanned pirates on the boat were waving long poles with hooks in their hands. It was their unique tool when robbing ships. They hooked the long poles to the side of the ship.
, borrowing force to get on board is their specialty. On several slightly larger ships, the masts and sails were covered with people, as densely packed as ants.
On the one hand, Gao Muqing ordered a strict formation, and on the other hand, he raised the flag. Soon after, a pirate ship rushed straight from the front, and seemed to directly hit the big ship where Gao Muqing and Lin Jue were, but it suddenly turned around and passed by. The bow of the ship
A pirate stood with his arms akimbo and asked in a deep voice: "Are you the ship of the leader of Guishan Island Gao Village?"
Gao Muqing said loudly: "Exactly, we have already made an agreement with your Jiangdao master, why don't you lead the way?"
The man laughed loudly and cursed: "These girls are so powerful." Then he loudly said: "Come with us. Don't break in, otherwise don't worry if something happens."
The pirate ship turned lightly, opened a path in front of the big ship, and headed straight for Peach Blossom Island in the distance. The big ship followed closely behind, and sailed away surrounded by more than ten small pirate boats and the noise of the birds.
After enjoying the incense, the steep cliff on the northwest side of Peach Blossom Island, the lush trees on the top of the cliff, and the tall arrow tower are clearly visible.
The guiding boat docked at the pier at the gap in the cliff, and Gao Muqing's ship also slowly docked. As soon as it docked, a gong was heard, and countless people poured out from between the trees and houses on both sides of the pier.
There were thousands of pirates. Although they were not fully armed and some were only shirtless, they were all armed with weapons and looked like menacing gods.
Gao Muqing walked off the ship with a cold face and his head held high, and came to the shore. Behind him, dozens of female guards and dozens of bandit soldiers from Guishan Island also filed down. Lin Jue was tied up with five-flowered clothes and surrounded by the female guards. A dry sea
The gangsters stared at this group of heroic female guards, their eyes darting up and down unscrupulously. These female guards were all trained in martial arts, and all of them had slender and concave figures, which made the hungry people on these islands
The thirsty gangsters were drooling with greed, and they were eager to go up and eat them alive at the command of their leader.
The big man came forward with a smile, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "This is the leader of Guishan Island's village, isn't he? I am in Xiajiang Jinfu, and I came to greet the master of Gao on my father's orders."
Only then did Gao Muqing realize that the person in front of him was Hai Dongqing's eldest son Jiang Jinfu. He then coldly returned the greeting: "It turns out to be the young island master. I am Gao Muqing, the master of the Guishan Island cottage. What is the young island master doing?
?Why did you bring so many people to greet you? I, Gao Muqing, can't afford it."
Jiang Jinfu laughed and waved his hand, and more than a thousand pirates quickly retreated and returned to their original hiding place.
"Master Dazhao, don't be surprised. Our Taohua Island village is heavily guarded. There are heavy soldiers at the dock where we land on the island. It is their duty to guard the wharf. It is the first time for the village master Gao to come here. Of course he is not used to this scene. The more people come, the more he comes.
Once you get used to it, not only you, but also my father and the others will be on guard when they return to the island."
"That's it. I wonder where Master Jiang is? Can you please lead us to meet Master Jiang? We are here to discuss business." Gao Muqing said in a deep voice. "Dad and the leaders are waiting for Master Gao in the hall on the mountain.
.However, I want to ask, I heard that you came here with Lin Jue, the culprit who killed my second brother, where is he?"
Gao Muqing turned around and pointed at Lin Jue, who was being escorted by the female guards, and said, "He is this person. How can he break his promise?"
Jiang Jinfu's eyes turned to Lin Jue, and he walked slowly to Lin Jue's side. Gao Muqing was on high alert, her fingers on the hilt of the sword. She was worried that Jiang Jinfu would suddenly kill Lin Jue to avenge his dead brother.
However, she was obviously overly worried.
Jiang Jinfu stood a few steps in front of Lin Jue, looked at Lin Jue up and down for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "Is this kid the murderer of my brother?"
"It's guaranteed to be replaced if it's fake." Gao Muqing said.
Jiang Jinfu laughed non-stop, shook his head and sighed: "My brother claims to be a world-famous martial artist and has great abilities. How did he fall into the hands of this kid? This kid seems to have no strength at all. How can he know the slightest bit of martial arts?
What does it look like? He actually died in the hands of this kid, with unparalleled martial arts skills? Isn’t this a joke? "
Gao Muqing was a little surprised. There was some sarcasm in Jiang Jinfu's words, but they were sarcastic towards the dead Jiang Jingui, which was strange.
Lin Jue, who was tied up, stood there but understood Jiang Jingui's thoughts. On Guishan Island, when Yun Haiqing explained Qiu Biao's identity before his death, he said that Jiang Jingui was Hai Dongqing's beloved son and Hai Dongqing's most powerful figure.
The son who was highly cultivated. Since he prefers Jiang Jingui, Hai Dongqing's other sons will definitely not be welcomed. It's just an ordinary family, but if it is a wealthy family or a place like a copycat court, due to interests, it will inevitably happen
It's contradictory. Just like the fight between princes in the court is for the sake of seizing power, Hai Dongqing's sons may not be able to stop it. Maybe Jiang Jingui's death is nothing to some people in this village.
bad thing.
"You little thing killed my second brother?" Jiang Jinfu glared at Lin Jue and shouted.
Lin Jue's face was calm and his lips moved slightly. Jiang Jinfu didn't hear what he said clearly and frowned: "What did you say?"
Lin Jue coughed and repeated it. This time Jiang Jinfu heard clearly, what Lin Jue said was: "Shouldn't you thank me?"
Jiang Jinfu stared at Lin Jue, his mouth wide open in surprise and speechless. The other party's clear eyes seemed to see through everything, as if the secret in his heart had been seen through.
Yes, the happiest person to receive the news of his brother's death is Jiang Jinfu. When his brother was alive, he was simply a shadow over his head. In any matter, at any time, his father would compare himself with his brother and scold himself as useless.
, talking about how smart and capable his younger brother is, and saying that he is a loser. Jiang Jinfu talks about being submissive, but he hates him in his heart. His younger brother never respects him, and does not take his elder brother seriously at all.
Rumors have long circulated in the village that the position of island master will be passed on to his younger brother in the future, but he is a marginalized figure. Of course Jiang Jinfu is not happy, especially when someone tells him that he will lose not only the position of island master, but also the possibility that
When it comes to the position of an emperor, the reluctance is even stronger. Dad wants to rebel, and if he succeeds, he will be the emperor. If his younger brother inherits the position, what he loses is indeed the throne of an emperor. My God, that is an emperor.
The position of emperor.
Therefore, when the news of his younger brother's death came, and everyone in the village was in mourning, Jiang Jinfu hid in the house and drank a big drink to celebrate Jiang Jingui's death. Finally, the dark cloud hanging over his head dispersed, and he was still alive.
What could be happier than this?
But these joys can only be felt in the heart, and on the surface he still has to show indignation and grief. He originally wanted to show off today, showing extreme hatred when he saw the murderer, and maybe he should draw his weapon. He pretended to kill the murderer to show his hatred. But facing Lin Jue's words, he suddenly didn't know what to do.
Lin Jue smiled. From Jiang Jinfu's expression, he confirmed his suspicion. Jiang Jinfu was indeed very happy about his brother's death. He only had this embarrassing expression when his thoughts were exposed. It was very interesting. , Sure enough, this Tiaohua Island cottage is no exception. Where there are people with power and interests, there will be contradictions. When there are contradictions, there will be something to start with. This Jiang Jinfu may be a breakthrough. As long as he can survive the first hurdle today. , may not be unusable. Before coming here, he had studied a lot of information about pirates. Regarding the conduct and abilities of Hai Dongqing's sons and their status on the island, Lin Jue made special conclusions and speculations. Sure enough, he saw A test after arriving here in Jiang Jinfu verified a lot of things.
"Young Island Master, it's getting late. Didn't you say that the Island Master and the leaders are waiting? Then what are you waiting for? Take us to see them quickly." Gao Muqing said solemnly from the side.
"Oh oh oh, let's take a walk." Jiang Jinfu nodded quickly and responded.
When he turned around, he found Lin Jue grinning toothily. Jiang Jinfu felt even more guilty and cursed: "Damn it, I'm afraid you're sick! You're going to lose your head soon."
Lin Jue smiled even brighter. Jiang Jinfu hurriedly took a few steps to get further away from this madman.
The mountain road spirals upwards. Needless to say, the topography of the pier reaches the high point of the island. The natural steep terrain and artificial construction work make this place extremely dangerous. But once you get to the high place, it is another world. What a scene. The green grassy slopes in the high places are open and gentle, and dense forests are spread all over the island, stretching into patches, which makes it look like a paradise.
There is not much difference at the highest point. The entire island originally looked like a mountain. Once you reach the top of the cliff, it is actually a huge flat land. Of course, there are rocks and deep rift valleys, but the overall terrain is gentle. place.
The mountain road leading to the hall is lined with lush trees and bamboo forests on both sides. Although the peach trees all over the mountains and plains have passed their flowering period, you can imagine what a beautiful scene it is here in March when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. Such a beautiful place, now But it was entrenched here by pirates. It was like a pearl cast into darkness and a beautiful jade covered in dust.
Walking on the island, you can see the sea below the island where the trees are open, and you can see the white sails of pirate boats shuttled in the waves. You can also see a dozen small islands clustered on the sea with a radius of more than ten miles. The entire layout is almost visible at a glance.
Half an hour later, in the dusk, everyone finally arrived under a huge rock in the center of the island. The stone steps went up, leading to the hazy night ahead. The number of pirates on alert around them also began to increase. Lin Juehe Gao Muqing knew that he had reached the core of the pirate lair.
Gao Muqing turned back to look at Lin Jue and met Lin Jue's eyes. Lin Jue gave him a firm look. Gao Muqing took a breath and turned his head.
