Chapter 315 Encountering Water Bandits
Looking at all the bandits and bandits, the Yinyue bandits entrenched in this water area can be regarded as a rare bandit with rules.

However, as long as the merchant ships that pass through the Yinyue River pay enough tribute every year, the Yinyue bandits will not plunder these merchant ships, but will escort them to prevent other water bandits from plundering.

After all, in the still vast Yinyue River, the Yinyue bandits are not the only one, and there are other water bandits among them.

It's a pity that the merchant ship that Zhou Yan is currently riding on was not originally intended to cross the Yinyue River, so this merchant ship did not pay due respect to the Yinyue bandits.

However, because Zhou Yan paid enough money, the merchant ship changed its course and took the current Yinyue River.

There is a saying that people make money and birds die for food. Facing the temptation of huge profits, the owner of this merchant ship is willing to take risks for this.

In addition, the strength of this merchant ship itself is not bad, and there is no problem in dealing with those ordinary water bandits.

But what I am afraid of is that I will encounter the famous Yinyue bandits in this water area.

With the style of the Yinyue bandits, it is absolutely impossible for these merchant ships that have not paid tribute to pass through the Yinyue River safely.

Zhou Yandao wasn't afraid of the Yinyue bandits entrenched in the waters here, he just didn't want to cause trouble.

After all, Zhou Yan's trip was for Tianxintang's inheritance place hidden in Kunlun Shenshan, and it is most appropriate to act in a low-key manner without attracting other people's attention.

"call out!"

It's a pity that he came here for whatever he was afraid of. Just when Zhou Yan raised his eyes to look at the Yinyue River, a loud arrow suddenly shot over from the white fog.

"Duh!"

The sounding arrow passed right past Zhou Yan's ear, and shot straight at the wooden board of the cabin behind Zhou Yan. The wings of the sounding arrow trembled for several breaths, and then gradually stopped.

From this, it can be seen how great the strength in the hand of the person who shot the loud arrow is.

At the same time, the loud arrow also alarmed the guards on the splint, and one of the guards shouted loudly: "The water bandits are coming, the water bandits are coming!"

The urgent sound of warning made the entire merchant ship heavily guarded, and guards armed with weapons filed out from the cabin, guarding the splint with a solemn face.

"Da da da!"

But he heard a series of heavy footsteps coming from behind Zhou Yan, and saw a middle-aged man in a long robe leading four bodyguards in heavy outfits walking towards Zhou Yan.

The name of this long-robed man is Tong Shunliu, he is the head of a bodyguard agency in Xishu, and he specializes in doing business by waterway.

Tong Shunliu, whose martial arts cultivation base has stepped into the Zhoutian realm, is considered to have a small reputation among all the people living on the waters of the Baling River in Western Shu.

Ordinary little thieves, little water bandits, did not have the courage to intercept the goods escorted by Tong Shunliu.

But when Tong Shunliu walked slowly to Zhou Yan's side and stood still, he frowned involuntarily, and then he said in a kind voice: "Master, I don't know whether the visitor is an enemy or a friend. You should go in." Let's rest in the cabin!

If a war really breaks out later, I'm afraid Tong won't be able to take care of your safety! "

According to Tong Shunliu's thoughts, he would not have taken this Yinyue River, but the reward paid by the young man in front of him was really a fortune, and Tong Shunliu could not refuse this kind of temptation, so he just I was able to take the risk to take a trip to the Yinyue River.

However, Tong Shunliu did not expect that it was such an unfortunate coincidence that he happened to encounter the water bandits entrenched in the waters here.

But now that the matter has reached such a point, Tong Shunliu can only do his best to deal with it. If there is really no other way in the end, he can only rely on his hands to pass the test.

But before that, the first thing Tong Shunliu had to do was to settle Zhou Yan properly.

After all, Zhou Yan was his parents, so it was Tong Shunliu's duty not to put Zhou Yan in a dangerous situation.

But what Tong Shunliu didn't know was that Zhou Yan didn't take this water bandit, who had never been masked, in his heart at all.

Zhou Yan still raised his eyes to look at the river in the distance, he chuckled lightly and said, "Don't worry Tong Biaotou, I still have some strength to protect myself!"

After hearing Zhou Yan's voice in his ears, Tong Shunliu stopped trying to dissuade him. Anyway, he had already spoken out to remind Zhou Yan, and he had already fulfilled his duty. After all, it was impossible for him to force Zhou Yan.

Immediately, Tong Shunliu and Zhou Yan stood on the splint together, quietly watching the white mist in front of them, while the merchant ship under the two of them gradually stopped, and finally hovered at the On the surface of the river, we no longer continue to drive forward.

The loud arrow just now was equivalent to a warning from water bandits, warning merchant ships not to act rashly.

If the merchant ship continues to move forward, it is equivalent to directly tearing the face off with the water bandits, and the two sides have absolutely no other results other than fighting.

Before confirming who the water bandits in the mist are, Tong Shunliu will naturally not be the first to break with the other party.

It doesn't matter if the water bandits in the mist are nameless, Tong Shunliu can lead someone to fight them forcibly.

However, if the water bandits on the opposite side belonged to the Yinyue bandits, then things would be completely different.

After all, this is the Yinyue River, which is the headquarters of the Yinyue Bandits. Once the Yinyue Bandits are angered, it is impossible for Tong Shunliu and his crew and goods to leave the territory of the Yinyue River.

Therefore, Tong Shunliu was really unwilling to fight directly without knowing the specific intentions of the other party.

If you can leave safe and sound at some cost, then why bother to confront swords?
After waiting quietly for a while, a row of three sailboats slowly sailed out of the white mist, and gradually came into the eyes of Zhou Yan and Tong Shunliu.

On the masts of the three sailing ships, each hung a banner with a silver-white crescent moon, which was the flag of the Silver Moon Bandits.

On the splints of the three sailboats, there were many fighters with weapons and bows standing densely, at least four to five hundred people.

The leader of this group of water bandits is a bearded man with a bow and arrows, bird feathers on his head, bells on his body, and brocade robes.

Even from a long distance, Zhou Yan could clearly sense the tyrannical aura emanating from the body of the big bearded man. He turned out to be a strong man in the realm of martial arts.
