Qin Kai frowned and listened to the reports from his soldiers, and asked doubtfully: "You said that a ten-man team was found in the woods, and eight of them had their clothes taken off."
The soldier who bowed to report nodded and responded: "Yes, General! Judging from the clothes of the remaining two people, they should be members of the Sandman Group of the Shahe Gang."
Yin Shisan on the side frowned and said sadly: "I didn't expect that these losers are so useless! They can't even delay them for a moment!"
Qin Kai spoke out to persuade: "I have discovered before that there should be capable people in this group of people who are good at detecting. They suddenly increased their speed just now, and they must have realized that our deployment is approaching the limit."
At this point, he, who was wearing heavy armor, paused and added: "This also explains why they were able to kill these ten people in a short period of time without even letting them send a message."
Xie Huangqi, codenamed Huang Shi, was listening with a gloomy expression. Then he interjected and asked: "Surprise? Attack him unprepared?"
As the head of the Sandman organization, his subordinate was instantly killed by the enemy, which made the demonic warrior furious! If not for the status of several people present who were above him, Huang Shi would definitely be furious.
There were four powerful warriors present, including Yin Shisan and Huang Shi from the Shahe Gang, and Qin Kai and Batu from the Six Gates.
Batu, who was wearing a black and red cloak, had not interrupted before, because he knew that his son was deploying at the border with two hundred elite soldiers at this time, and it was absolutely impossible to pass the blockade there in a short time.
achieved.
"My lords, Quanzi is stationed at the border ahead. No matter how powerful that group is, it is absolutely impossible to quietly kill my two hundred black-armored elites! We should hurry up and hurry up. Soon
Maybe there will be a fight between the two sides." Batu looked at the three people beside him and said in a deep voice.
Qin Kai smiled and nodded: "Is Baruch in front? That kid does things calmly and methodically, let's go there first."
Huang Shi frowned and didn't say anything. Yin Shisan beside him also had a calm face. However, the two of them naturally understood the meaning of the armored man's words.
Do things calmly? Have rules and regulations? Does this mean that our Shahe Gang does things calmly and has no rules?
However, both parties were working for Ji Shenfu, so there was no way there would be any dispute over this trivial matter.
…
Zhang Ming led a group of people and moved forward at full speed after entering Chunfeng Town. Qin Hongyao was naturally carried by him. After all, the woman's cultivation was only at the peak of the Qi realm and could not keep up with the speed of the group of people.
In fact, among everyone present, even Li Xintian, who has the lowest cultivation level, is not bad at Qinggong. It is not only faster than the average Mang realm.
As for Yi Xifeng, Zhao Long and others who are the best in the realm of Mang, let alone others.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, since Ji Rentu is currently in Chunfeng Town, why don't we borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and go meet General Rentu for a while?" Lu Huahua, who was walking in the middle of the team, suggested.
Anyway, he has already offended all the six gates of Luoye City and the Shahe Gang, so there is no need for another black knight. His posture is a bit ruthless, as if he is not afraid of mosquito bites when there are too many mosquitoes.
Zhang Yanshi, who was following the team, shook his head and said in denial: "We don't know Yan Mingbo's attitude yet, so we'd better let this matter go."
He knew why the short-haired girl said this. In the past few battles, he either relied on his own sneak attacks or used disguises to get through. In the end, he was chased behind him. This kind of fighting style was inconsistent with Lu Huahua's past.
Compared to Lu Huahua, who has always used violent means to defeat her enemies, Yi Xifeng is much more prudent, or in other words, much more clumsy.
In the past six months, everyone has been on many missions together, not only the Iron Guard missions issued by the town, but also many of the pay list tasks undertaken by their team. The fair-skinned young man is a Guard Iron Yi regardless of his internal strength or combat skills.
He is the best among them, but in ordinary tasks, he still habitually does not stand out.
In his own words, he was "suffering".
The fair boy himself did not explain what "gou" means, but everyone's understanding should be that it means "gouyi". Fortunately, although Yi Xifeng doesn't like to take strong action, he can still control the overall situation at critical moments.
"Go to Chunfeng Town first. Instead of contacting Ji Rentu, it is better to contact Yan Mingbo first." Yi Xifeng suggested.
"Then in what capacity?" It was Zhao Long who asked.
Yi Xifeng thought for a while and replied: "Let's just use my identity as a sand person first."
………………Dividing line………………
Li Chengqian and Yan Mingbo were walking in front, while Zhou Di and others were some distance behind, following behind them. Obviously they had important matters to discuss.
As for the content, both of them knew that it was not suitable for everyone to know.
"Instructor Li's martial arts cultivation is profound, and Yan admires him!" A strong man wearing a black cloak admired in a low voice.
Li Chengqian grinned, waved his hand and said: "I, Mr. Li, am a martial artist. I can't stand out on the stage, but when compared with the leader of the Yan clan, there is a huge difference. Only when I met today did I know that the leader of the Yan clan is not only very accomplished in martial arts.
I also know how to keep a low profile and bide my time. In front of this kingly way, my so-called martial arts way seems to be small."
Yan Mingbo naturally heard what the middle-aged man meant, and said slowly with twinkling eyes: "Yan can't help himself. The inheritance passed down by my father cannot be destroyed in Mingbo's hands. He takes charge of Chunfeng Town himself."
Since then, I can only think hard and walk on thin ice!"
As the former captain of the mountain patrol team, Li Chengqian is naturally aware of Chunfeng Town's status among the six forces. Although its population and armed forces are stronger than those of Yinren Village, it will inevitably be difficult to develop and grow due to its geographical location.
Therefore, Yan Mingbo had to find another way, starting from the water transport trade. In the eyes of outsiders, Chunfeng Town, which had basically given up the construction of armed forces, was basically regarded as a vassal of Luoye City, or even banned.
In this way, Chunfeng Town really avoided a lot of trouble.
"However, time does not wait for us, Yinren has turned from a village into a town! The form of Chunfeng Town is bound to be in jeopardy!" Yan Mingbo frowned and sighed.
Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, then asked in astonishment: "Changing the village from a village to a town?"
The man in the black cloak did not expect that the other party did not know about this important event, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. Li Chengqian stayed in the secret realm of the ancient ruins for more than half a year. So many things happened during this period that he naturally had no way of knowing.
Yan Mingbo explained with a wry smile: "Yinren has annexed Tiexin Village and just changed its name to Yinren Town some time ago! The situation in the entire Luoye City has also undergone tremendous changes. The first one to bear the brunt is Chunfeng Town, which is a forbidden area in the eyes of Luoye City.
.”
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly. He still remembered that he had met Li Chengtao once when he left the village to go to the ancient ruins. At that time, they were still discussing how to deal with foreign armed forces in Tiexin Village.
At that time, he assessed the inner energy and found traces of Zhao Yuntian. At that time, he was still working for Tiexin Village under the pseudonym "Shui Yuntian".
After Li Chengqian left the mountain patrol team, he no longer took care of the affairs of the village. Naturally, he didn't know much about Zhao Yuntian's final arrangement, and he didn't match him with Shui Yuntian. He just felt that the inner energy was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Very strange.
That's why he had such a conversation with Li Chengtao in the camp in Maple Leaf Forest that night. This was also the real reason why Li Chengtao rejected the other party and refused to let him take action.
"It seems that after leaving the village that day, a lot of things really happened in the village, haha, that's fine." The middle-aged man murmured.
Yan Mingbo did not interrupt the other party's contemplation. After a while, Li Chengqian said seriously: "Gang Leader Yan, I understand what you mean. I can promise you that there are some deals that can be made."
At this point, the originally calm-looking man in black cloak flashed his eyes! But before he could say anything more, Li Chengqian raised his hand to stop him.
"However, I have a condition. I want to talk to these brats first. I want to understand the current situation in Yinren Village, uh, it should be called Yinren Town."
Yan Mingbo nodded slowly and responded: "Instructor Li is absolutely right, it should be so. My Feng Shui Gang will sweep the bed and wait for you, please!"
…
With Yan Mingbo leading the way, no one could stop him in Chunfeng Town. Everyone quickly arrived at Fenghe Wharf. This wharf was the military wharf of Chunfeng Town. Looking at the warships floating in the river, including Zhou Di
Inside, everyone was stunned.
Yan Mingbo said with a smile: "Let you all laugh, this ship is a water battleship built by our Chunfeng Town with the whole town's strength. Not to mention in this Chunfeng River, even if it sails into the Yunxiao Sea to participate in a naval battle, it will never
question!"
Zhou Di looked at the hematite sheet wrapped around the ship. It is a specialty ore from Hongyan Town. Although the hardness of the iron produced is almost the same as that of ordinary iron ore, the amount of iron produced and the unique fire attribute bonus make this iron
Growing hematite is not cheap.
When it comes to the hematite being smelted onto the surface of this huge ship, whether it is the craftsmanship or the amount used, it is all made with real gold and silver.
"With such a sharp weapon, it's no wonder that Gang Leader Yan can become the overlord on the Chunfeng River!" Li Chengqian said with emotion as he looked at the huge battleship in front of him.
"Hahaha, Coach Li is so complimentary!" the man in black cloak said modestly, but his expression was very proud.
Qi Chengcheng, who was following them, was originally shocked by the huge ship in front of him, but after hearing Yan Mingbo's words, the somewhat unruly young man muttered to himself:
"Isn't it just a big boat? It can't run fast when it's driven into the river. But when it's driven into the sea... hum! It might even sink!"
Zhong Lingxi on the side naturally heard the funny boy talking to himself, covered his mouth and smiled, then poked him.
Seeing Zhong Lingxi poking at him, Qi Chengcheng raised his eyebrows and muttered: "What are you doing?"
"Hehe, don't underestimate this iron battleship. No matter how powerful it is in water combat, the mere presence of this battleship is where Chunfeng Town's confidence lies!" Zhong Lingxi, with a picturesque look on his face, looked at the scene in front of him.
A huge crimson ship explained in a low voice.
"Confidence?" Qi Chengcheng muttered doubtfully.
"This is the confidence that Chunfeng Town dares to challenge Luoye City. Even if the two sides go to war, Chunfeng Town's Feng Shui Gang can completely transfer all core members to this battleship. The people in charge of Chunfeng Town may change, but from then on
, the entire Luoye County will not be easy. As a price, a very powerful water bandit will appear on the Chunfeng River!"
"Water bandits? You mean...!" The funny boy's eyes widened. Apparently he had not expected that Yan Mingbo and the others would choose to take this path.
Zhou Di on the side interjected and added: "Yes, this Gang Leader Yan is not a good character!"
Qi Chengcheng stared blankly at the man in black cloak not far ahead who was introducing the battleship to Li Chengqian, and his expression finally lost the contempt before.
It happened that Yan Mingbo turned around and looked at everyone. When his eyes met Qi Chengcheng's, the funny boy was a little shocked to find that there was a trace of amusement in the other's eyes.
Could it be that he heard our conversation just now?! How is it possible? Even though we are more than ten feet away, we can still keep our voices down! Qi Chengcheng thought to himself.
But soon, Yan Mingbo looked away and raised his hand to signal Li Chengqian to go to the battleship to discuss. The man in black cloak led the way, and the middle-aged man followed after getting up.
But when Li Chengqian was about to board the battleship, he turned back and looked at the group of brats behind him. Although Zhou Di, the leader, was already a young man, in his eyes, he was still a brat.
"Follow me, remember! Stop talking nonsense behind your back!" A voice suddenly sounded in the souls of Zhou Di, Qi Chengcheng and other eight people.
They knew it was not a sound, because the middle-aged man was standing on the deck of the battleship. He did not open his mouth, but just stared at them indifferently.
"This is! This is...a voice transmission from the soul?" Cold sweat gradually broke out on Zhou Di's forehead.
The so-called divine soul sound transmission is a powerful technique for using the divine soul. It is similar to the internal energy aura, which requires the warrior to have extremely high control. Not only his own martial arts, but also his understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.
If ordinary people meet them, they will definitely think that this is an accomplished swordsman, sword god or the like. The so-called "immortal and god" here does not refer to the other person's martial arts attainments. After all, it is their understanding of the soul or inner strength.
The degree of application, due to the addition of one's own insights, has far exceeded ordinary people's understanding.
As the saying goes: The child is silent, and the strange power confuses the spirit!
What gentlemen cannot say is that these things that are difficult for them to understand are lumped together as strange and divine.
Qi Chengcheng, Zhou Di, and Zhong Lingxi looked at each other. The funny boy moved his lips, but didn't say anything out loud. But looking at his expression, everyone guessed what he wanted to say.
"This Yan Mingbo is actually so powerful!"
That's right, the man in the black cloak captured what the group of young girls behind him said just by relying on his inner energy and sound transmission with his soul. From this, it can be seen that his true strength must be no less than that of Li Chengqian.
This is also the most fundamental reason why the middle-aged man was disdainful of cooperation at the beginning and finally became willing to negotiate with him.
It's not that Li Chengqian is very powerful, because no adult would talk about life and death with an ant. Only people at the same level can have conflicts and so-called cooperation.
