On the shore of Reed Island, Li Huowang stood there holding a bloody bamboo slip in his hand.
The others stood not far away with sad expressions, leaning on each other and looking at him.
They have not yet recovered from the aftermath
Li Huowang's expression was hesitant. As long as he threw it hard, the bamboo slips in his hand, which could make people vomit just by looking at them, would sink into the mud of the lake and never see the light of day again.
This seems to be a very good choice. No matter who wrote this bamboo slip, the power of Ba Hui is not easy to borrow. If it is left in the world, it will only bring endless suffering to others.
After Li Huowang stood there and thought for a long time, he finally put the bloody bamboo slip into his arms again.
The various recording methods here are extremely bloody, but they are indeed very easy to use.
An ordinary water bandit like Yuan Er can use it, let alone myself.
This kind of thing is prepared for emergencies. Maybe in some extreme situations, I will actually use it.
If you don't want to completely become Danyangzi, you must find a substitute when you encounter danger in the future, even if this substitute is very expensive to use.
Li Huowang turned his head again and looked at the other people behind him. "Push the boat over, and then prepare the dead people and gold. Let's leave this shabby place."
The trouble was solved in an unexpected way. There was no need for me to stay in this place full of dead bodies.
The small sampan used by the water bandits to rob was pushed to the shore by Sun Baolu, who was good at water. Others boarded it with the bodies of their companions and the gold jewelry.
"Get on the boat, paddle, and take us to the other side of the big lake." Li Huowang stared at the young man in front of him and threatened.
"I...I'll take you out, can you not kill me?" The fearful young man asked timidly.
When he saw Li Huowang reaching for the hilt of the sword behind him, the young man immediately crawled towards the boat in a fit of piss.
As the boy rocked the oar, the small sampan began to turn and drove towards the depths of the reeds. Others stumbled and rowed to follow.
The entire dense reed swamp was very quiet, except for the sound of oars cutting through the water, no one made a sound.
Everything that happened on the island before left everyone in shock and their faces turned pale.
"Gao... Gao Ren, my name is Yuan Fu." The boy paddling suddenly said.
Li Huowang, who was frowning, did not reply. His eyes looked around the dark surroundings like an eagle.
"Master, um, actually I know it's not good to kill people and buy goods on the water. When my father is making a nest, I never go there." The young man with a nervous look on his face tried to defend himself.
"I actually want to take the imperial examination and go to Beijing to become a high official. I've long been tired of staying in this place. I'm very familiar with the place. Master, where are you going? I can show you the way." p>
This sentence finally caught Li Huowang's attention. He lowered his head and looked at the rowing boy. "How much do you know about the nunnery in Henghua Mountain?"
This is the next destination. Maybe we can learn something from this person. Henghua Mountain should not be far away from this lake.
"Sister-in-law? I know this. I encountered this once when my second brother and I were working. We had already figured out the details of Yangzi on the ship, but at the last moment, our second brother said we wouldn't do the job."
"He told me that this is the meaning of my grandfather, the sister-in-law in black, the bald man who raises birds, and the great god with drums. This is called the three no-grabs."
"What do those nuns look like? What's so special about them?"
"They are fat, but they are fat. One of them can hold up to three of me, and they are also lazy. They will never stand if they can sit, and they will never sit if they can lie down."
"Besides, they were very smelly and dirty. Once, one of the girls took off her shoes, and I could smell it from across the boat."
"Master, are you going to find those sisters-in-law? I can lead the way."
Fat, lazy, dirty, these words are difficult to associate with the Buddhist word nun.
"Li Zhi said they are barely good people? But are there really so-called good people in this world?"
After experiencing this series of events, Li Huowang expressed serious doubts.
After the boat went round and round in the reeds for a long time, the vast lake appeared in front of them again.
After the boat docked again, it was already dawning. From sunset to sunrise, they actually stayed on the island all night.
When the sun shone on everyone's faces, their heavy hearts finally relaxed. They were exhausted after rowing all night and fell to the ground one after another, gasping for air.
Li Huowang said to the others: "Don't rest yet, go find firewood in the forest and burn these three dead people, otherwise they will stink later."
Seeing the three drowned companions on the boat, the others stood up with difficulty and walked towards the woods on the side.
Li Huowang stopped Xiao Man, who was covering her arm. A large area of skin on her right arm was lifted, and the blood-red muscles were exposed to the air.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Li Huowang took out a pill from his waist and handed it to her.
Xiaoman did not take the elixir, "It's okay. It's a good fortune to be alive. I can just cover this minor injury with plant ash later."
After spending these days together, Li Huowang already knew her very stubborn character, so he said nothing more.
Soon three large bonfires were raised on the shore, and Li Huowang held the three dead bodies and threw them in respectively.
Everyone watched as their companions who were still alive and kicking yesterday were gradually wrapped in flames.
When the sun hung high, the flames gradually extinguished.
Li Huowang poked at the ashes with the long sword in his hand, broke some large bones into small pieces, and put them into ceramic jars along with the ashes.
Looking at the urn in front of him, Li Huowang felt very depressed. What happened last night made his mind very confused.
At this time, Bai Lingmiao, whose eyes were covered, stretched out his hands and gently pulled the hem of his clothes.
Feeling something was wrong with her mood, she leaned over and put a patch on Li Huowang's back.
"I'm fine, no need to comfort me." Li Huowang bent down, picked up the three jars, and placed them in the fool's arms.
Yuan Fu stood beside Li Huowang like a bitch and said: "Master, do you want to take a break? If you don't want to take a break, then I will take you to find your sister-in-law. I know the way."
The calm Li Huowang shook off the ashes on his sword, then swung it in the direction of the sound and inserted his backhand into the scabbard.
"Take the ashes and let's go."
Yuan Fu's eyes widened and he covered his bleeding neck with his hands in disbelief.
He opened his mouth and faced Li Huowang's back as if he wanted to say something, but he could only make a coughing sound.
In the end, he staggered a few steps, his body went limp and fell to the ground, and his eyes gradually lost their luster.
