Great Song catcher

Chapter 9, Jiangzuo Seven Swords

at dusk.

As the river goes eastward, a passenger ship sails on the surface of the water and goes down the river, and you can vaguely see the smoke from cooking.

The bloody sunset shone into the cabin and reflected on Nie Feng's somewhat depressed face.

Three days ago, he boarded the ship from Luzhou, and now he has passed Jinling, but he still hasn't seen the shadow of the Jiangzuo Seven Swords.

At that time, he also deliberately found a brand new and luxurious passenger ship, hoping to lure Jiang Zuo Qijian into the bait, but now it seems that he made the wrong idea.

"Could it be that Jiang Zuo Qijian was frightened by the Black Shark Gang?"

Nie Feng speculated in his mind, but then shook his head, "Probably not. Although the Black Shark Gang has many people, but there is only one innate master, Jiang Zuo Qijian is not afraid of them at all. Maybe they have too late to hide. I definitely won’t take the initiative to join in the fun.”

"Then why?"

Tuk tuk duk...!
Just as Nie Feng was thinking hard about why the Jiangzuo Seven Swords didn't appear, there was a sudden knock on the door of his cabin.

"My lord, dinner is ready, should I bring it to you, or should you go to the dining room to eat."

Nie Feng shook his head, put these thoughts aside, went to push the door open, looked at the smiling Xiao Er, and said, "I'll go to the dining room to eat, and I won't bother you."

Like this relatively luxurious passenger ship, there are basically dining rooms on board for guests to eat.

Of course, because the boat is on the river, the food must not be as abundant as on land. You can only eat some food that is durable and not easy to perish, and there are fresh fish, shrimps and crabs in the river. It's the original flavor.

Moreover, Nie Feng did not reveal his identity as a policeman of the Six Doors, but boarded the ship as an ordinary quack.

Walking into the dining room, Nie Feng sat in the corner, where the back against the ship plank can prevent others from sneaking in, and at the same time, the whole dining room can be seen.

Taking advantage of the spare time while serving the dishes, Nie Feng glanced around the dining room seemingly unintentionally, and found that all the guests on the ship seemed to have come to the dining room.

A white-faced scholar holding a folding fan, an enchanting young woman, and two rough men, these two are acquired martial artists, they are the most ordinary kind of people, and the most eye-catching is another partner.

There were seven people in total, all sitting in corners.

However, they did not eat the food provided by the boatman, but brought some biscuits, dried meat, and water.

The leader is about forty years old, and his hands on the table are strong and powerful. One can tell at a glance that he has practiced a kind of extremely vigorous hand kung fu, and his temples are also protruding.

Nie Feng reckoned in his heart that this man's martial arts cultivation should have reached the congenital extreme, and his inner family's cultivation had also reached the peak, but there was still some distance from the congenital realm.

Because if he breaks through to the innate state, then his appearance will return to the basics, and he will look like an ordinary person on the surface, instead of showing his sharpness like he is now.

For example, Master Xiao of the Hall of Merit and Merit looks like a frail scholar, but in fact his skills are unfathomable.

The few people under this person are not weak, they are all acquired masters who have practiced hard skills from outsiders.

A congenital extreme master, with six acquired martial artists, this combination is rare in the martial arts, and look at their attire, as well as their cautious behavior.

Nie Feng thought of a profession.

Bodyguard!

This group of people is very likely to be the bodyguards of the Escort, because only the bodyguards are so cautious when going out, they even bring their own food and drink.

Every well-known bodyguard bureau in the Jianghu has a dedicated old shop for eating, drinking and lodging in the process of betting the bodyguard.

That was a reputation established over more than ten years, but now that they are traveling by water, they have no choice but to bring food and drink and other practical things to avoid being plotted by others.

While Nie Feng was staring at them, the middle-aged man in the lead was also secretly watching Nie Feng.

In particular, Nie Feng's guess was right, this group of people were the bodyguards of the bodyguard bureau, because the bodyguard they bet on this time was no small matter, and many people were already prepared to rob the bodyguard halfway.

That's why they took the risk of taking the unfamiliar waterway. The purpose was to avoid those robbers. When Nie Feng stepped into the dining room, he attracted their attention.

Although Nie Feng was young, his cultivation made him unable to see through it, and he couldn't guarantee whether Nie Feng was here to rob the darts, so he had to be careful.

At this time, the two rough men suddenly stood up and walked to the table of the group.

"Brothers, what's the matter?"

The leading middle-aged man stood up, cupped his hands, and said very politely.

According to his strength, there is absolutely no need for him to be like these two people. He is a congenital extreme master, and these two talents are acquired warriors. To put it bluntly, he can kill one of them with one palm.

However, people in the bodyguards all pay attention to peace when they are outside, especially at this critical moment, it is better to have one more thing than one thing less, that's why he is so polite.

"Boss Fang is being polite!"

The other party obviously knew him, and he cupped his hands and said, "We are entrusted by someone to deliver a letter to you."

"Where is the letter?"

"here."

The man took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Chief Fang.

"Boss Fang?"

Hearing their address, Nie Feng's heart moved slightly, and a message from a person suddenly flashed in his mind.

Fang Sihai!
Yangzhou No. [-] Escort Bureau, head of the Huwei Escort Bureau, Fang Sihai!
The direct disciple of the law enforcement elder of Baima Temple in Luoyang, he is good at the palm strength of the tiger-shaped big chopping hand, and he is practicing the Vajra Subduing Demon Kungfu.

Because of the teacher's sect and his own strength is strong enough, the underworld giants on Jiangling Road, when they hear his name, respect him three points, let him three points, and avoid him three points.

That's why the darts of Huwei Escort Bureau can run amok without any hindrance, and never smashed the signboard.

But as far as Nie Feng knew, he hadn't gone out to escort the darts in person for almost five years.

This time he came out of the arena again, not only that, but also led someone to bet on the darts, not on land, but on an unfamiliar waterway, what kind of darts are they betting on?

Nie Feng was a little interested, but it was only a little interest.

He didn't mean to go into this muddy water.

At least he won't bother to get involved in other things until he catches Jiangzuo Seven Swords.

The first thing he should do now is to catch Jiang Zuo's Seven Swords, and then he will be successfully promoted to a Huang-level police officer.

The ranks within the six doors are strict, and the upper and lower ranks are orderly, especially since he is only a policeman from the outer door, belonging to the lowest rank.

Once he is charged with the following crimes, even Lu Chengfeng will find it difficult to exonerate him.

"He dares!"

I don't know what was written in that letter. After Fang Sihai read it, he immediately became furious. He slapped the table with his right hand. With a "snap", the hardwood table was shattered.

"President Fang, don't get angry. We are only entrusted by others. If you disagree, we can go back and tell them the original words."

When these two people saw Fang Sihai's actions, they immediately shrank their necks in fright, fearing that the slap would fall on their heads, and said in a hurry.

"Go back and tell them that the thing is on my body, Fang Sihai, what made them come at me."

Fang Sihai said angrily: "If they dare to touch every plant and tree in my Huwei Escort, I promise to turn their Black Shark Gang into a dead fish gang!"

At this time, the door of the dining room was pushed open, and a young man hurried in and said, "Chief Escort, something is wrong, someone outside wants to see you!"

"who is it?"

"They claim to be Jiangzuo Seven Swords!" The young man looked around and said in a low voice.

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the room.

As the saying goes, the name of a person is the shadow of a tree.

The Jiangzuo Seven Swords have been able to run across the Yangtze River waterway for more than ten years, there must be something unique about it, even if Fang Sihai is a master of the innate extreme, he dare not take it lightly.

But Nie Feng was a little excited after hearing the young man's words.

After living on the boat for three days, I finally waited for them.

Fang Sihai clasped his fists to the people in the dining room and said, "Everyone, the other party is here for our Huwei Escort today, everyone, please go back to the cabin, no matter what you hear, don't show your face, lest there will be accidents."

After finishing speaking, Fang Sihai picked up the long knife on the table, led his men out of the dining room, and headed for the deck.

Nie Feng took a look at the white-robed scholar and the enchanting young woman, picked up the Bi Liu sword on the table and followed behind.

The few remaining people looked at each other and went to the deck one after another.

As night fell, the river was filled with smog, and it was quiet.

Fang Sihai stood on the deck, looking at a small boat not far ahead with a solemn expression.

There were seven people standing on the boat, dressed in black, covered with black veils, and carrying long swords.

"Jiangzuo Seven Swords..."

Fang Sihai squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
