Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 363
dusk.

Fire cloud.

In Daxuan, Huoshaoyun represents auspiciousness, which indicates that there will be abundant rain and everything will flourish.

But at this moment, in Xu Zun's eyes, it looked like scarlet blood, which made him feel excited and nervous.

Looking down, the brightly lit Banshee Island can already be seen in the distance, and the figures on the island are floating, peaceful.

Because the black sails of the pirate ship were eye-catching, Xu Zun deliberately slowed down the speed of the ship in order to avoid misunderstanding, and let the boat out beforehand.

At this moment, you can see the lights flickering on the pier of Banshee Island, and the crowds are crowded. It is obvious that the king has received the news and is preparing to welcome her.

However, while welcoming them, you can also see the warships of the Banshee Kingdom gathering at the pier. It seems that the hostess is worried about fraud and is guarding against pirates' sneak attacks.

Xu Zun was a little surprised, he didn't expect such a small banshee country to have such a large-scale coastal defense team, there were no less than ten first-class battleships, and countless small battleships.

Feeling the temperature rise in the back of his head, Xu Zun finally turned around, only to see Huo Anu holding a ball of torches, facing Xu Zun.

"My lord," Huo Anu pushed the flame closer to Xu Zun, "it's ready, are you sure it's necessary?"

Xu Zun didn't answer, but glanced at everyone on the deck, and saw that the first-class fighters had already changed into soldier uniforms, and they were tearing their clothes at the moment.

Someone deliberately removed half of the bun and smeared soot on his face, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Ah."

Xu Zun hummed and agreed.

Huo Anu was also ruthless enough, as soon as he set fire to Xu Zun's bun, the hair beside Xu Zun's ear burst into flames.

"Oh oh oh..."

Zhao Yu was terrified, and hastily covered Xu Zun's head with a prepared wet cloth to extinguish the flame.

After the wet cloth was removed, Xu Zun's hair bun on the side of the ear was half burnt, and it was still smoking.

"My lord," Huo Anu saw that Xu Zun had a white blister on his ear, and immediately felt his heart ache, and hurriedly asked, "Are you alright!?"

"I thought," Xu Zun said with a grin as he felt the burning pain, "if you have fire in your name, you are the best at playing with fire. It seems that I took it for granted!"

When Xu Zun said this, Huo Anu couldn't help laughing.

Xu Zun glanced at her, then began to smear soot on his face, and at the same time tore a gap in the official's neckline.

"My lord," at this time, Ashio came forward to report, "According to your instructions, everyone is almost ready!"

"Okay!" Xu Zun clasped his fists towards many first-class fighters, and said loudly, "Heroes, Xu's move is really helpless, and I hope you can understand. This time, it's not to return my Xu's favor, but it's all for my sake." Xuansheji!"

"It's okay Master Xu," Xin Zhao found half of a wooden stick from somewhere, and pretended to be crippled due to an injured leg.He said with shining eyes, "It's our wish to be able to do something for Daxuan!"

"That's right," another warrior dressed as a court musician said righteously, "We naturally know how powerful it is, and only when the country is safe can I, Daxuan Ziming, live and work in peace and contentment!

"Even for the sake of the common people, we are obliged to do so!"

"Correct!"

"Yes, well said!"

Through the performance of the first-class warriors, Xu Zun already knew that these people came from famous schools in the Jianghu. Although they were not interested in the Daxuan court, they were chivalrous and courageous.

Therefore, these people are worth entrusting.

At the beginning, there were 27 warriors who escaped from Gufeng Island. During the fight with Ku Niang, Xing Zhe almost lost his life.

Later, after the battle with Hei Boyu, several fighters were poisoned or injured. At this moment, there are exactly 20 fighters who still maintain their fighting ability.

Looking at the guards, Li Xing and Shangguan Min were injured due to poisoning. Although they regained their consciousness, they are in a worrying state.

Therefore, Xu Zun decided to keep them on board and arranged for Hou Zhen, who was more secure, to take care of them.

In addition, besides the bodyguards, Xu Zun also left Xiao Zhennan and his wife on the boat. Firstly, Xiao Zhennan was the captain, so he had to support Xu Zun and others at any time.

Secondly, the couple came here to help, Xu Zun didn't want them to follow him into danger.

In the end, the Daxuan sailors led by Wu Yubao also stayed on board, repairing the hull and preparing to sail at any time.

As the pirate ship got closer, everyone's mood became more and more tense, and they could already hear various sounds coming from the Banshee Country's pier.

"Jiying," at this moment, an uneasy Shen Xingran pulled Xu Zun aside and asked worriedly, "Is your plan too arbitrary, Hei Boyu is dead, we have no evidence, and you just suspect the banshee like this?" Country, isn't it inappropriate?

"Besides, what if it has nothing to do with Kong Zhen? Are Kong Zhen's subordinates colluding with pirates? And..." He swallowed, "Even if it is really Kong Zhen, wouldn't we be falling into a trap like we are now?"

"Hehe," Xu Zun smiled faintly, "Brother Shen, your thinking is too simple! If it's really Kong Zhen, then even if we don't throw ourselves into the trap, we will never escape her grasp.

"We've lost so many things along the way," Xu Zun said meaningfully, "If we can't exchange for the truth, we won't even be able to save our lives!"

"You... this..." Shen Xingran couldn't understand Xu Zun's meaning at all, and looked at Xu Zun with increasingly unfamiliar eyes.

How could this still be that little paralyzed Xu who was bullied by his younger brothers and sisters when he was a child, who had no ambitions and was confused?

What exactly has he experienced that made him grow up so fast and so scary?

Or... he used to be so wise and stupid, all pretending?

Just wondering what to do, Shen Xingran saw that the princess in a purple dress was also brought to the deck.

Apart from Ani, the princess is surrounded by the two maids of the prince.

Since the whereabouts of the princess' maids were unknown, Xu Zun arranged for the two prince's maids to serve the princess.

"Ah? Jiying, this..." Shen Xingran turned to Xu Zun, "You want to let the princess off the boat? Isn't it...too dangerous?"

"Brother Shen," Xu Zun hesitated for a moment, then said to Shen Xingran, "Brother still said that, you are an important witness in this case, so..."

As he said that, Xu Zun gestured towards the cabin, which meant that Shen Xingran was not allowed to get off the boat.

"This..." Shen Xingran looked angry, "The princess and the maid are not important witnesses? Jiying, tell me the truth, do you doubt me?"

"No," Xu Zun said firmly, "Brother Shen, I'm really doing it for your own good, listen to me, stay on the boat!"

While speaking, Xu Zun gave Hou Zhen a wink, and Hou Zhen immediately came to Shen Xingran's side.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious, if Shen Xingran refused, Hou Zhen would use force to suppress it.

"..." Shen Xingran gritted his teeth and glared at Xu Zun angrily. He was about to walk away when he thought of something and turned around and said, "In that case, I won't pull you back, but no matter what, you Be sure to pay attention to safety!"

After finishing speaking, Shen Xingran turned around and entered the cabin.

Looking at Shen Xingran's back, Xu Zun felt a familiar feeling in his heart, and for some reason, the kind face of Mr. Shen appeared in his mind again.

Time was running out, and Xu Zun couldn't be melancholy. When he turned around again, he found that the pirate ship had sailed into the port of Banshee Country.

But I saw soldiers wearing silver helmets and silver armor everywhere on the wharf of the Banshee Kingdom. The soldiers held long spears and spears, as if they were fully armed, as if they were facing an enemy...
