Chapter 995
2014-10-13
Before and after a war, there is usually a period of calm. For example, in the past few days, Tang En is on its way to the capital of Titus, the Titus reinforcements are on their way to the front line, the barbarians are on their way to attack the Titus Legion defense line, and the Grey Cloth Armed Force inside the defense line is on the way to expand their victories...Look, everyone is on the way. Occasionally it is different, but also because someone is on the waterway...
The river is vast and boundless, and the sparkling waves reflect the golden yellow of the sunset. In the distance, a cold fog gradually grew and spread silently. Occasionally, a few waterfowl were startled by the chopped waves on the bow of the boat, stepping on the water and flying far away, bringing a little bit of life to the deadly static picture.
There are not many waterways in Titus, and once there are, it is a big river. For example, the boundless river separating the north and south of Titus is where the large ship is now passing.
The so-called forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds. As the river widens, some hidden dangers will come out. It is also called relying on mountains to eat mountains and relying on water to drink water.
Titus has many mountain ranges in the north and many bandits, which is something as everyone knows. In this way, it is naturally normal for this big river to come out of water right now.
The reason why it is not very famous is not because there are not enough water bandits here, but because it is a business line, Titus attaches great importance to this, and has made great efforts to eradicate it. Therefore, as long as you walk within the prescribed waterways, there will generally be no problems. On the contrary, it's hard to say...
At this time, the cockpit of the cabin was full of blood, and some big men dressed as sailors were lying on the ground, and the iron hammers, iron chains, and other weapons on the ship were scattered. All around, groaning slightly.
"Smuggling... well, don't you know that smuggling is illegal?" He rubbed his forehead with one hand. Some distress. Miksu, wearing a silver mask, held his bloated body in one hand. Captain's hair stained with blood. Pressing on the operating table, he asked in a low voice, "So, our current position is not within the prescribed waterway?"
"Yes...hū chī...yes." Spit out blood and teeth. It seems to have fallen off a lot, making it difficult for the captain to speak.
"I have a question, what should you do when you encounter water bandits?"
"No...it won't be so coincidental, hū chī...and we are in conflict with some water bandits. Familiar. As long as the time comes, hū chī...as long as you pay some tolls..."
"So...As far as I know, there are many water bandits here, and they are divided into many factions. Do you know them? "
"I, I know some..."
"That is, if you don't know all of them, you dare to leave? Oh, yes, you are smuggling..." Miksu looked Thoughtful nods, suddenly, peng peng peng, holding the captain's head on the iron console. Immediately, blood splattered everywhere, screaming again and again. "You tm know that you are smuggling, yet you dare to accept my money and take me on board?"
"Aaahhhh, pay the money, I will pay the money now and don't fight, please, don't fight"
The cabin door was pushed open abruptly amid the wailing. A young man broke in and hurriedly said: "Captain, there are many small boats about five miles ahead of the boat, and they are quickly surrounding us. The flag is invalid, it should be a water bandit."
paused, Miksu Wei Wei took a breath, lifted the boat that was limp on the ground, wiped the blood stains on the other party's face, and said warmly, "Hey, here's your chance, I hope your face will work. I don't want the money, but If the other party doesn't give you face and wants to forcibly board the ship, you don't expect me to give you face. Understand?"
"Understand, understand...don't worry..."
"Very good, I like smart people. Let's go, I'll accompany you to the bow."
Holding the trembling captain to the door of the cabin, he remembered something, step one stopped, Miksu turned his head and looked towards the youth who reported the news, asked, "What is that person doing now?"
"Staying in the cabin, without any movement." The youth seemed to know who Miksu was asking, without the slightest hesitation replied .
"Invite her to the deck...be polite, in the name of the Boss."
"Yes."
"Also, let the chief family Stay in the cabin, don't come out."
Out of the cockpit, Miksu's eyes flickered slightly under the silver mask, somewhat depressed.
Tang En will arrange for Joah's clansman members to go to the north, and leave it to Miksu to do it, which already shows that this matter is important. After Miksu took over, he didn't dare to neglect. He was very careful with a group of people approaching a port city and decided to go back by water.
Of course, the waterway here does not mean taking a boat specially designed to carry people. That is a channel controlled by the official, and the investigation is also very strict. Although Joah's clansman has not been fully exposed, Miksu didn't want to take the risk, so he turned his attention to the merchant ship.
It is a common thing to say that a merchant ship brings people some extra money. It's just that they have a lot of people, and the general merchant ship doesn't have so many cabins. After waiting for a long time, I spent a lot of money to contact a suitable large-scale merchant ship two days ago, which is now the ship is willing to take them to the north.
This was originally a good thing, but who would have thought that this merchant ship was a smuggling ship. It is not entirely a regular waterway, and on the way, it will also pass through places where water bandits often lurking. And wait until Miksu finds out that it's wrong, it's too late to clean up the smuggling crew, and now the water bandits have come to the door...
Exhaled, Miksu shook his head slightly. If it's just them, it doesn't matter how many water bandits come. Even if you are outnumbered, you can always escape. But now the key is that the members of the Joah family are also on this boat. Once they make a move, the meager staff here will obviously not be able to take care of them.
Fortunately, what a coincidence, she was also on the boat... Thinking of the person who rushed over when the boat sailed two days ago, Miksu suddenly felt a lot more at ease. With her strength, as long as you make a move, the trifling water bandit will not be a problem. The question is, if I make a move later, what reason should I use to persuade her to make a move to help?
Thinking, Miksu carried the smuggling captain to the bow. Now the boat has slowly stopped, and about three miles ahead of them, as the young man said before, many small boats are approaching quickly. Faintly, downwind can still hear laughter and shouts.
Miksu squinted his eyes, looked at the blade lights reflected from the boats, and reconfirmed the identity of the other party. It was undoubtedly a water bandit. He turned his head and looked towards the captain beside him, who was staring at his bruised eyes, and asked, "Know?"
"I...I can't see clearly..."
"No need I'm nervous, I'll describe it to you...most of them wear dark black clothes, and some leather armor, which is also black. The weapons in their hands are uniformly long-handled single-sided axe..."
"Tiger shark! God... It's a tiger shark and water bandit!" Before Miksu could finish speaking, the smuggling captain seemed to have thought of something, his expression suddenly changed greatly, and he screamed in horror.
Miksu frowned upon seeing this: "You don't know?"
"I, I... know, I know..."
shook his head, "hehe , you are really a smart person. You know them, but they don't know you. Right?" Out of the corner of the corner, Miksu patted his face with fear as he swept the youth's men and accompanied a man in a hooded robe onto the deck. On the shoulder of the smuggling captain, "It seems that you are useless to me."
"I, I will sail...don't kill me, I will sail!" The captain stepped back again and again and shouted in a panic.
"It's a pity, but I will too." After he finished speaking, the figure Ghost Umbra flashed and instantly appeared behind the smuggling captain, holding the other side's hem of his shirt and throwing it far into the river.
"Don't" thud, the shrill cry disappeared, and the water splashed everywhere.
He didn't die immediately. Since he was the captain, he was naturally familiar with water, and he appeared on the floating and sinking river after a while and kept tumbling. However, no matter how good his water ability is, it is impossible to swim to the shore in this boundless river.
“Why?”
In a low voice, questioning. Turning around and looking at the robe silhouette quietly looking at the deck, Miksu thought of the character of the other party, and as he walked over, he spread his hands and explained patiently: "This is a smuggling ship, the captain was uneasy and kind, and brought us to the area of the water bandits. ."
After a short step, Miksu bowed and saluted, "introduce myself, Miksu, Tang En Boss's subordinate."
The robe silhouette thought for a while, Open: "Eisoan?"
"Not bad."
"You know me?"
"I've seen it a few times, and I often hear it from Boss, Impressed, but I didn't meet you... Well, besides, I booked that hotel."
