The Juyi Hall tonight is indeed heavily guarded. In addition to the checkpoint just now, there are two other checkpoints on the road leading to the Juyi Hall. However, there are both waist badges for protection and pass codes. On a windy and rainy night, the guards
None of them were too lazy to bother. So they read the passwords, looked at their waistbands, and just waved their hands to let them go. However, before they passed the checkpoint and arrived at Juyi Hall Square, they met a small boss who looked at the waistbands of the three people and asked a few questions.
.
Lin Jue also simply put it off, saying that it was just a storm and heavy rain, so he came up to drink hot tea and warm himself up by the fire. This kind of weather was already very painful, so this request was not too much. Besides, there were only three people who came up.
, it must have been agreed upon that we should take turns to rest, so there is nothing to make a fuss about.
When the three of them stood on the side of the Juyi Hall Square, they were surprised by the scene in front of them. What does it mean to be heavily guarded? This place can truly be called heavily guarded. Above the square, although it was raining heavily, but there were still people holding up their hands in the rain.
Bandits patrolling with torches were walking back and forth one group after another, numbering at least five to six hundred people. There was a huge wooden shed set up on the edge of the square, and there were many pirates sitting, standing, and lying inside. They were obviously changing shifts.
The number of bandit soldiers in the entire square exceeds a thousand.
A dozen huge bonfires were lit in the middle of the square, and the flames shot up several feet high. These were obviously firewood poured with kerosene, and they persisted in the heavy rain. The rain fell on the fire, stimulating the red firewood.
There was a crackling sound, and sparks flew up from time to time. It was as spectacular as the fireworks on Yuan Yuan night.
Lin felt suddenly. No wonder the fire was soaring into the sky when he saw it from the arrow tower on the west cliff. It was because of the burning of more than a dozen bonfires. The light of these dozen bonfires illuminated most of the square like this in such a dark night.
It was like daylight. It stretched and tore the silhouettes of the patrolling bandits, like countless ghosts, ghosts, and snakes dancing in the middle of the night.
To the west in the middle of the square, opposite the gate of the Juyi Hall, is a tall flagpole with a black pirate flag painted with crossed skulls. This flagpole is fifteen feet high and as thick as a bucket. It is the only one on the island that has been built all at once.
The towering tree was cut down and brought here in its entirety and erected as a flagpole. Lin Jue and others walked slowly past the flagpole and subconsciously looked towards the top of the flagpole. They saw raindrops shining like lines in the night sky lit by the bonfire. High
On the top of the high flagpole, a dark figure was hung on the beam at the top of the flagpole. As the wind and rain blew, the figure swayed back and forth. Although it was too tall and dark to see the face clearly, it goes without saying that the figure must have
It's Jiang Jinfu's body.
After taking two glances at the corpse swaying in the wind and rain, Lin Jue sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't have any sympathy. It seemed that Jiang Jinfu had been tricked by him, and he seemed a little pitiful. But in fact, this guy was not at all.
Poor. He is Hai Dongqing's son. He has been a bandit with Hai Dongqing for more than 20 years. I don't know how much blood this guy had on his hands and how many bad things he did. Even if he didn't die at the hands of Hai Dongqing
, he was also unforgivable. His death was a great joy to both the court and the people. What Lin Jue sighed was that he was indeed the one who tempted him to rebel against Hai Dongqing, otherwise this person would not have died like this.
quick.
Perhaps this is the best ending for Jiang Jinfu. If captured by the court, Hai Dongqing and his son will be punished by Lingchi. Although it is a human tragedy to die in the hands of his own father, at least Hai Dongqing will leave him a legacy.
A whole corpse was found.
The three of them did not dare to break into the square. There were more loyal and personal guards inside and outside the Juyi Hall. The identities of Lin Jue and the three of them could not enter the Juyi Hall. Furthermore, at this moment in the square,
Wandering would cause unpredictable trouble. So the three of them lowered their bamboo hats and walked quickly towards the shadow between the two barracks on the south side of the square.
According to the decision discussed on the road, Gao Muqing can only enter the Juyi Hall to inquire about the news. Because of her strong martial arts skills, she can sneak in quietly. The Juyi Hall is not just a meeting hall in the middle, there are side halls on both sides, and there are also
There are more than a dozen rooms, and the venue is quite large. And because it is a simple wooden structure, it is actually easy to sneak into.
The three of them stopped in the shadows. After discussing in a low voice, Gao Muqing left the two of them alone. She walked slowly along the wooden fence on the edge of the square, in the direction of the south side of the Juyi Hall.
Fifty steps away from the south side of the Juyi Hall, there were several groups of guards patrolling back and forth in front. Gao Muqing stopped moving and looked around. Seeing the right moment, he jumped over the square wall surrounded by wooden fences and settled down.
On the steep rocky slope outside.
She lay down on the slope and listened for a moment. When she saw that no one was around, and no one noticed her climbing over the wall, she slowly got up. Then, her figure snaked in and out among the rocks and shrubs, and soon appeared in
Under the wall in the southwest corner of Juyi Hall.
After breathing for a moment, Gao Muqing reached out to grab the wooden pillar supporting the eaves. He climbed up quickly like a gecko. He reached out to grab a piece of wood at the eaves, flipped it over lightly, and the next moment he was lying on the high ground.
On the slope of the roof of Juyi Hall. It became much safer after that. No matter how many people were on the ground, a petite black figure could not be seen running lightly on the roof of Juyi Hall.
Gao Muqing is quite familiar with this Juyi Hall. After all, the negotiation place was here some time ago. After so many days of wrangling, Hai Dongqing also led her to visit Juyi in order to ease the atmosphere.
Hall, so Gao Muqing knew a thing or two about the structure.
Below the northwest corner is the firewood shed in the back kitchen of Juyi Hall, which is the best place to stay. Gao Muqing quickly moved to the position above the firewood shed, pried open the thick mud felt thatch covering the roof, and created a room that can accommodate
People enter the big hole and jump into the dark woodshed.
After that, she felt at ease. As long as she entered the Juyi Hall, no one would ask about her identity, as long as she didn't show off everywhere. Gao Muqing quickly moved to the meeting hall in front and quietly slipped into the corner of the side hall.
inside.
Looking into the hall through the partition, the lights were brightly lit, the flames were rising in the oil pan, and more than a dozen gangsters were sitting on the chairs on both sides with serious expressions. Hai Dongqing was spread out on the big animal skin chair,
Although you can't see his face from this angle, you can see his big hands tightly grasping the armrest, as bent as an eagle's talons.
…
In the Juyi Hall, Hai Dongqing, who looked gloomy, sank most of his body into the big bear skin chair. The lights in the hall and the blazing flames in the iron pot only illuminated half of his face, while the other half was hidden in the black
In the shadow on the side of the hide.
But everyone could see that in just a few days, Hai Dongqing seemed to have suddenly aged a few years, the wrinkles on his face were much deeper, and he looked much tired.
During the entire discussion, Hai Dongqing almost remained silent. Military Xu Xing presided over the active discussion with the leaders, while Hai Dongqing seemed absent-minded and lost in a strange thought.
For Hai Dongqing, the past few days were indeed very difficult, but he still showed his usual coldness and cruelty, and quickly quelled the rebellion on the island that even he had not expected.
After Hai Dongqing returned safely to the island a few days ago, he personally presided over a massacre. Hundreds of pirates who participated in the rebellion, as well as Chu Changgui, one of the eight kings who had neglected their duties, and his men were all escorted to the east cliff.
On the top, he personally cut off their heads one by one and pushed their bodies into the sea under the cliff. Tens of thousands of his men across the island witnessed this.
In the wind and rain, with their trembling bodies, they watched hundreds of people being beheaded one by one, and their corpses dyed the water under the cliff red. Witnessing the countless sea tigers rushing in the wind and waves to rob the corpses, they
Many people peed their pants.
What Hai Dongqing wants is this effect. He knows that the only way to restrain these gangsters is fear. If they don't let them know the consequences of cheating, they will be ready to take action. In order to show everyone his determination, he personally
Jiang Jinfu was hung up on the flagpole and watched in front of everyone as his only biological son struggled on the rope and eventually became a corpse.
It can be said that the fluctuations in people's hearts caused by this rebellion were quickly suppressed by Hai Dongqing with thunderous means. He wanted to tell everyone what would happen to those who dare to have two minds. And he, Hai Dongqing,
There will absolutely be no room for forgiveness.
However, even so, this incident still hit him extremely seriously.
Last year, when the news came that his beloved son Jiang Jingui had died on Guishan Island, it was a huge blow to him. And his eldest son's rebellion a few days ago was even more of a blow. Jiang Jinfu's rebellion was not at all what he expected.
, and because of this, the impact of this incident exceeded his imagination. Moreover, the cruelty of this traitor's methods was staggering. He actually killed all of them together with his two youngest sons and several wives and concubines. This was a great blow to Haidong.
Qing caused an almost devastating blow. After he hanged Jiang Jinfu on the flagpole with his own hands, Hai Dongqing also realized that he had no relatives around him.
He has been alone in the world since he was a boy. Now, decades later, he has returned to where he started, still alone. Four sons, three wives and several concubines all died unexpectedly. Who else would have suffered such a blow?
I have no love left in my life.
In the past few nights, Hai Dongqing couldn't sleep all night. He was wondering whether all this was retribution, whether he had done too many sins in the past, and that was why he had harmed his family. But this only happened in the middle of the night when no one was around.
These thoughts will pop up. He will show his vulnerability when no one is around. But once he stands in front of others, he is still the undefeated Haidongqing. Because he understands that as long as he has a little
Decadent and weak, these gangsters cannot be suppressed. These people are convinced by their hard-hearted ways and vicious methods. Once they lose these, they will jump out. I don’t know how many people covet the island master.
throne, and now is the time when they are ready to make a move.
Of course, all of this was blamed by Haidongqing on the boy named Lin Jue. He was stupid enough to allow him to live for so many days, which eventually led to this tragedy again. This boy was like himself
Like his nemesis, he first killed his second most proud son, and then went to the island to encourage his stupid eldest son to commit such a heinous act. This Lin Jue was simply his disaster star.
