Xia Shang thought highly of these people. Seeing the boss of the boat being captured by Qin Sang and throwing him to the ground, his liver and gallbladder were immediately broken. He repeatedly slapped his head to Xia Shang: "Hero, spare your life, hero, spare your life!"
"If you want to survive, tell the boy named Ye."
The boat boss hesitated, but Xia Shang suddenly noticed a black shadow flashing on the side of the boat.
Seeing Xia Shang hesitate, he immediately threw his crossbow, and three arrows were shot out with a "swish, swish, swish" sound. Suddenly, someone howled in the darkness: "Bye-bye! Spare your life!"
Isn’t that voice Ye Xiaoyun or who is it?
Xia Shangzheng was wondering, how could the dignified young master of Liuyun Sect be so virtuous? Three crossbow arrows scared him?
Looking for the sound, Qin Sang took action and quickly captured Ye Xiaoyun.
Ye Xiaoyun was even more unbearable. As soon as he arrived in front of Xia Shang, he fell on the ground and cried bitterly: "Hero, spare your life! The villain is also forced to have no choice. The mountains are high and the sky is vast. There is no way to beg for food. The villain has no choice but to rob the road and cheat.
Please, the good man, please don't remember the villain's faults, and go around the villain this time."
The boy burst into tears. He lost all his previous coquettishness and even lost the fan he carried with him to show off.
Xia Shang frowned when he heard this: "Young Master of Liuyun Sect? With your virtue? What is your identity?"
While talking, Xia Shang picked up this man's fan, opened it and looked at it. He felt that the quality was good and the workmanship was exquisite. However, the fan surface was not decorated at all and was completely white. Xia Shang liked it, so they put it away.
Ye Xiaoyun didn't dare to raise his head, not knowing Xia Shang's actions, he only answered continuously: "My name is Ye Bin. My parents died when I was young. I used to cut firewood in the Liuyun Sect in my early years. I met the young sect leader once and felt that I grew up with him."
There was some resemblance, and later he used his identity as the young master of the Liuyun Sect to deceive others."
"Then what are the pushing skills you showed earlier?"
"I also learned it from the Liuyun Sect, but I learned it from peeking. I know a few tricks. It's okay to use against ordinary people, but it's useless against real masters. Young Master, villains have eyes but not
Know Taishan, please let us go."
Xia Shang didn't say anything more, Qin Sangfu'er asked lightly: "How to deal with them?"
"For now, let's tie them up first. Maybe we will need them later."
…
At the base of the stern mast, the boss of the ship and Ye Bin were tied up tightly.
The previous weakness seemed to have paralyzed the nerves of the whole boat. Seeing that there was only a little girl guarding them, the panic expressions of the two people became calm again.
"Ye Bin, today is considered a capsize in the gutter."
"How can you keep your shoes from getting wet when you often walk along the river? It is inevitable that you will encounter one or two difficult guys. Don't worry, our people should be here soon."
The boss of the ship sneered: "No, it's coming soon."
Ye Bin was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Do you see what they are doing?"
Ye Bin followed the instructions of the ship's boss and saw that everyone on the ship was busy, with pretty girls running around on the deck, causing waves of fragrant breeze, which was very eye-catching.
Ship boss: "Look above."
Ye Bin looked up again and realized what the ship boss meant.
This boatman is hoisting the sail!
"Hahaha! What a bunch of idiots. Now they are traveling against the wind, and they are still raising their sails. Isn't this going slower and slower?"
"Shh... keep your voice down, these foreigners who don't understand anything, God help me. Look at this speed, will our people be able to catch up soon?"
"That's right. No matter how high that woman's martial arts skills are, she can't withstand the large number of us. When the time comes, we will catch the man and settle the accounts."
"You two, what are you discussing so excitedly?!"
While they were talking, Xia Shang's voice suddenly appeared in front of the two of them like a ghost.
Both of them were frightened into a cold sweat. When they saw Xia Shang, they didn't even know when the other party appeared.
Xia Shang smiled: "Why did you two act so cowardly before? It turns out you had other plans!"
Ye Bin was also flustered: "I...I don't know what you are talking about?"
"Why are you still pretending? I heard everything you just said."
Xia Shang smiled and spoke very casually. He stood on the side of the boat not far from the two of them and fanned himself with Ye Bin's fan. His coquettishness was definitely not comparable to that of the previous surnamed Ye.
After hearing this, the two of them turned pale and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"You two don't have to be surprised. I expected everything you were thinking. Even if you didn't tell me, I would have guessed that you were water pirates, and there is a group of your people following behind the boat right now."
"you……"
"I'm telling you this just to make you more aware of your situation and stop thinking about anything unrealistic. As long as you cooperate honestly, I won't kill you. This is Taihu Lake after all, and you are more familiar with it. If you can sincerely help us cross the river
, I think your life will be easier."
Ye Bin was a little frightened. He never thought that everything was under the control of the other party. Moreover, the young man's eyes always gave people the feeling of being able to see through everything, which was very unpleasant.
"us……"
"Don't say it!" The boss of the ship suddenly interrupted. At this time, he no longer deliberately showed weakness and stared at Xia Shang fiercely: "Stop being alarmist! We don't want to listen to you. Do you want me to teach you how to sail a ship? No one knows.
No! Hum! In fact, you also know that our people will be here soon, and with your current speed, you will definitely be overtaken. So you are also very anxious, right?"
"I'm impatient? Are you referring to this?" Xia Shang pointed to the sail.
The two were silent.
"You think I don't understand this basic common sense? If I told you that by then, as long as I shake my folding fan gently, a southeasterly wind will blow, would you believe it?"
The two of them just sneered and didn't answer.
Xia Shang also smiled back without explaining, and then looked up at the sky, staring at the stars.
At this time, Ruyan was looking at the wind flag at the stern of the ship. The small chess piece was moving in the wind. The direction of the flag clearly indicated that it was west wind. And he and his group were going to the southeast.
"Walking against the wind, raising the sail doesn't slow things down? What on earth are you thinking about?"
Ruyan was smart and guessed that this move was inappropriate, but he was not sure of Xia Shang's intentions. He was hesitating whether to give a warning when he suddenly saw a ball of sparks rising in the darkness at the stern of the ship.
Looking at the position of the fire, it was estimated that it was still twenty or thirty meters away, and I didn't know what it was.
Before Ruyan could figure it out, he saw more and more sparks at the stern of the ship, and at least twenty more sparks lit up before and after, densely connected together.
Ruyan immediately had an ominous premonition, and then heard a shout from the distance:
"Ships ahead, stop quickly!"
"Ships ahead, stop quickly!"
As soon as he heard the sound, Ruyan immediately knew that a water bandit was coming. His face changed and he quickly ran to Xia Shang: "It's not good! It's not good! The water bandits are coming!"
Xia Shang was looking up at the stars, with no expression on his face.
But the two people who were tied up not far away had expressions of ecstasy on their faces. (To be continued)
