After nightfall, the big ship deviated from the main channel and stopped on the side of the river. The night sailing lanterns were lit on the ship to inform passing ships that there was a parked ship here.
The entire ship was unusually quiet. Except for a few candlelights in the cabin, the rest by the windows were dark. It was obvious that most of the passengers were asleep.
The five small boats that had been following the big ship slowly approached, and someone stretched out his head to carefully observe the movement of the big ship.
After the five small boats circled the big ship three times, they heard a sharp whistle, and the small boats quickly approached the big ship. At the same time, a hook and rope was thrown towards the fence of the big ship. After the hook, someone was
Straighten the rope from below, and then let others quickly climb up the rope.
When the first group of people all boarded the big boat, they took out their swords and walked toward the cabin with Qiankun steps.
When another person capsized onto the boat, they immediately ran towards the stern, and another group of people headed towards the wheelhouse.
Just from the division of labor and deployment of these people, I can understand that they are really veterans.
When someone opened the door of the cabin, several flying arrows shot out from inside. Those who reacted quickly and crouched down were able to escape, while those who were slower behind were hit by arrows and were knocked backwards.
Before the frightened people could recover, a dozen gangsters wearing red clothes and red masks rushed out from the cabin, with crossbows on their left arms. They shot at anyone they saw. The gangsters who had just escaped once stood up straight.
He was shot in the body. Looking at the short arrow stuck in his chest, he took a few steps back and folded from the boat into the river.
The group of people who were checking at the stern of the boat had just opened the oil paper covering, and arrows were shot from inside. Before they could react, five or six people had already fallen to the ground, and less than five people were left.
The situation was not good, so he immediately turned around and ran away.
Some even cleverly jumped off the boat, hoping to escape in their own boat after falling into the river.
But after he jumped into the river, when he came out again, he found that the small boat that was docked under the big ship was missing, and he felt that something was entangled under his feet, and he couldn't get rid of it. In the end, he was
It was pulled directly into the river.
At this time, several more people in red and black emerged from the river. The man in red held a short dagger in his mouth. The man in black was guarding him, but what they were biting was a long dagger.
sword.
And on the river surface behind them, under the reflection of the moon, you can vaguely see the red color rising from the water.
As soon as these people got on the boat, they immediately began to pull the rope. When the rope was tightened, a large net was pulled out from the river. In the net, instead of fish, in addition to dead people, there were broken boats.
Su Han, who was standing on the building, was wearing a black cloak, crossed his arms, curled his lips in disdain and shook his head: "It's really boring."
Xiao Muting pressed her shoulder and smiled: "It's just a small group of river bandits. How good it can be, and it also uses Qingluan and Xuanjia Pioneer Battalion, so it is even more vulnerable."
"But you have seen their tactics. They are so experienced. They are definitely not newbies. The division of labor is so clear. It can be seen that they have been on the river for some time." Su Han shrugged again.
Xiao Muting nodded: "He is indeed a veteran, but I didn't know before that there was such a Jiang bandit."
"Our river patrol has just been established, so we don't necessarily know it. It's just that no one can fight against them. Only five small boats and nearly thirty people can have such abilities. To say that they are not strong,
Shouldn't it, and I think, are they really going out in force?" Su Han looked at him with a wrinkled face.
Xiao Muting shook his head seriously: "Of course it's impossible. We have to find their lair and annihilate them in one fell swoop to restore peace on the river. If the place is good, we can directly station people there, or we can save the need to build a patrol station.
time."
"Ms. sir, why are you so awesome? You're great!" Su Han gave him a thumbs up in front of him, fearing he wouldn't see the same exaggeration.
Xiao Muting laughed out loud and held her hand: "You have obviously thought of it, but you have to let me explain it. If you praise me like this again, do you want to destroy the nest?"
Su Han just wanted to nod, then shook his head, and said with a flattering smile: "I listen to my husband, if you let me go, I will go and have a look. If you don't let me go... I will stay by your side honestly."
, I am obedient."
"Huh?" Xiao Muting felt that what she said was very meaningful.
"I'm obedient, so you won't divorce me, right?" Su Han leaned into his arms and smiled.
"Who is this again... Are you too busy... I will only have a princess like Su Han in this life, and there will be no other women. If anyone dares to question my feelings for the princess, I will definitely kill him."
!" Xiao Muting immediately became angry and said loudly.
Su Han immediately stood up on tiptoes to cover his mouth, and said hurriedly: "What are you doing? You said it so loudly, I heard you."
"Just let them all hear it. Did you listen to what someone said again?" Xiao Muting said with a cold face.
Su Han jumped up and hugged his neck. Xiao Muting immediately hugged her, but Su Han kissed him on the lips first and then said with a smile: "I knew you wouldn't dislike me for being a wild girl.
Yes, she will definitely not divorce me. Grandma is worried that I am too wild."
"Grandma?" Xiao Muting was surprised. He never expected that it was Ling Zinan who said the words that made Su Han so worried.
Su Han pouted and looked at him and nodded: "Yes, grandma has always been worried, but I promised her that you won't do it."
Xiao Muting couldn't be happy. He didn't quite understand. Is his character really so bad to make her so worried? Logically speaking, after getting along for such a long time, she should be able to understand her feelings for Su Han, and what she said
, which directly caused Su Han to have such a big reaction.
Su Han tilted his head left and right in front of him and looked at him: "You're angry, aren't you?"
"I'm not angry with you!" Xiao Muting said clearly.
"Don't be angry, okay? The main reason is that there is no princess like me. Look at Mo Yan, how dignified she is, and the royal aunt on the other side of the air. Who is dissatisfied? Look at me again, hehe, it doesn't seem to be true.
It's the same way." Su Han smiled naively at him.
"You are who you are, and others can't learn from it. Besides, what I like is how you are. Why are you the same as others? Princess Chen is unique in the world. What's wrong with that? Don't listen to other people's words and change you.
My husband, I don't like your original appearance. The more natural and comfortable you are, the happier your husband will be." Xiao Muting said to her seriously and solemnly.
Su Han saluted him with his right hand and said with a smile: "Received! I will obey the order of my father-in-law. The sky is high and I can fly, and the sea is broad and I can jump..."
"That won't work!" Xiao Muting immediately shook his head.
"Ah?" Su Han's excited little face suddenly fell.
Xiao Muting smiled and said: "Why don't you take my husband with you to fly and jump together?"
"That's no problem! I promise to take you with me!" Su Han laughed again.
At this time, Xia Qing stood on the deck and looked up at the two men: "Your Highness, Captain, all the Jiang bandits have been rounded up. Thirty-three people in total, thirty dead, and three alive. I want to interrogate them now."
"As long as they tell where their lair is and what equipment they are equipped with, let them live!" Su Han put his arms around Xiao Muting's neck and leaned on his shoulder with a proud smile.
"A way out? Are you going to put it back?" Xia Qing asked puzzledly.
Su Han put on a straight face and said with a slight hiss: "If you don't let them lead the way, can you find the place? By the time you find it, everyone will have disappeared. Just catch the water monkey."
Only then did Xia Qing understand. After turning around and waving to the team members, he quickly led them to escort the three survivors and ran into the cabin.
Xiao Muting laughed out loud, but Su Han leaned on his shoulder again: "Ms., I'm sleepy..."
"Okay, let's go back and rest." Xiao Muting enjoyed the feeling of being so dependent on her.
