lethal arsenal

Chapter 245 Giant Crocodile Wu
"Just wait, it's right here."

Lin Dong and Liu Laodao stood at the harbor blowing the sea breeze.

Because of the disappearance of Fei Mo Wenyu, a high-ranking member of the imperial court, the Tianjin government has sealed the port.

However, it took time for the message to be transmitted. It was only the second day, and there were still cargo ships heading towards the port.

The big sailing ship with the Chinese character "五" painted on it successfully docked on the shore.

The pungent smell of gunpowder penetrated Lin Dong's nose before he even got close.

The boat was obviously decorated with decorations, and the painful groans of the injured could be heard from time to time.

There are Wu family servants and sailors dressed in colorful paintings and green faces with fangs. These people are wearing green vine armor, triangular hats, and a percussion musket on their waist.

The other group was foreign soldiers, blond and blue-eyed, wearing neat black high-collar military uniforms and red hoods. They held a jet-black shotgun in their hand. The black muzzle of the gun stood facing the sky, exuding a somewhat fierce temperament.

Amidst the roar of the waves, the big ship stopped on the shore.

Cheers came.

The people on the boat seemed to be thankful that they had successfully landed.

Lin Dong was a little curious, stroking his chin and thinking, because he had a vague impression of the flag with the word "Five" in it. He must have never seen it before, but he seemed to have heard of Wu's trading company.

Where did you hear it?

correct.

Suddenly Lin Dong remembered that when Wang Fu met again before, the other party repeatedly mentioned a bullshit Mr. Wu, and it was most likely this ship.

If that's the case, is Ma Xinyi also on board?

As soon as his thoughts changed, Lin Dong immediately thought of his eldest brother, Ma Xinyi, whom he had not contacted for a long time.

Lao Ma was lucky enough to save a big businessman during the turmoil in the Xuan Mansion... After that, he turned to the water route and had no intention of meeting up with Lin Dong. Now he didn't expect to bump into him on the eve of his arrival in Beijing.

The people on this ship, whether they were the sailors of the Wu family or the foreign soldiers, all looked quite extraordinary.

All kinds of murderous weapons, sharp and bright blades, the mysterious totems on the faces of the sailors, and the resolute and decisive lips of the soldiers all demonstrate extremely excellent military qualities.

"This Wu family is amazing."

Lin Dong couldn't help but murmur.

"you recognize?"

Liu Daoren asked jokingly.

"What can I know? Master, aren't you here to find them?"

Lin shook his head and asked.

"I came to find them. Wu Pinghu's son, Wu Rengui, also has a foster brother who is very famous in foreign companies, called Forbes. This family has a big business. Wu Pinghu is the leader of the government and businessmen, and he is also the governor of Guangzhou. The leader of the Thirteenth Line, his status is equivalent to that of Pan Zhencheng, the grandfather of Xiao Yueyun. He is the richest man in the world. He wears a third-grade top hat. When Mr. Lin banned smoking, the Wu family also made a lot of efforts. …”

Liu Daoren slowly introduced.

"Is he still a good person?"

Lin Dong couldn't help but interrupt.

"Well, that's not how merit and demerit are judged... Although the Wu family has contributed a lot and even gave out 110 million taels of silver when the Qing government signed the "White Gate Regulations", you have to know that the Wu family's fortune is... It was the huge wealth earned by joining the East India Company and smuggling opium. Of course, it is undeniable that they also paid to build a warship for Master Lin... But even to this day, the Wu family has maintained a long-term illegal trade with foreigners. , the head is the rat at both ends.”

Liu Daoren had a thorough understanding of the Wu family's ins and outs. His merits were merits, and his faults were his faults.

There is no confusion between merit and fault, and there is a hint of derogation in the words.

"Then Master, can you tolerate them?"

Lin Dong raised his eyebrows and asked angrily.

"The world is full of evil people and thieves. Can you kill them all?"

"Besides, the fortunes of the last years of the dynasty are that the turbid air will rise, the pure air will fall, and the world will be filled with fierce light... Are you a good person? A hero for the country and the people?"

Liu Daoren suddenly asked, and his words made Lin Dong's heart ache.

"Right and wrong in this world cannot be explained in a few words. It is not terrible for a person to have a position. What is terrible is that his position will harm your interests. Only at this time should you consider how to deal with him."

While the two were talking.

The ship's ladder was lowered from above, and a group of sailors just got off the ship and lined up on both sides. "Soldier, soldier."

Liu Daoren and Lin Dong went over together and waved to the sailors.

"Who are you? Don't come close."

The ship must have experienced a shipwreck. The sailors who disembarked were particularly vigilant at this time. The knives and muskets on their waists were pulled out in an instant.

The muzzles of those black holes were pointing straight at them, and the smell of gunpowder spread over them.

Lin Dong grinned, revealing his sharp white teeth.

He was just about to say something, when he heard Liu Daoren say: "Pindao is a friend of your family head. Please tell the head of the Wu family that the 'Sage of Dou Fa' is here to visit."

While talking, Liu Daoren also handed over a golden waist badge.

These sailors originally didn't intend to pay attention to them, but when they saw the word "Dou" on their waist badges, they quickly raised their hands and said, "Two Taoists, please wait a moment."

After that, he climbed onto the boat.

The soldiers lined up on the left and right looked straight ahead, appearing to be extremely disciplined.

After a while, a young man in his thirties with tough eyes jumped off the bow of the boat and offered his hands to Liu Daoren and Lin Dong.

"In front of the Master, Wu Rengui is rude."

The young man hurriedly saluted.

Liu Daoren smiled and bowed, and Lin Dong imitated it in a decent manner and made some superficial efforts.

"I haven't seen you for more than ten years. The Dharma Master is still as charming as ever. I wonder who this person is..."

"This is Lin Yuanjue, a great disciple of Pindaolu Mountain."

Liu Daoren said briefly.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Wu Rengui's eyes widened in shock, and he bowed more politely, bowing and saying: "But General Linhuai Army, Lin Yuanjue, Lord Lin."

This boy is obviously a knowledgeable master. As soon as Lin Yuanjue said these three words, he looked more respectful and respectful than when he met his own father.

As Chen Yucheng was killed by the formation and Shi Da was defeated by his fist, a series of events began to ferment. Lin Dong's name gradually emerged in front of the squires of the Qing court.

He is no longer the unknown person in the past, but a great hero and hero who is famous all over the world.

There are only two people who have reached the peak of martial arts in the world.

Lin Dong didn't have a good impression of this guy at first, but seeing how knowledgeable he was, he said calmly: "Mr. Wu, you are polite, please get up."

He spoke casually.

There was another exchange of pleasantries between the three of them. Of course, most of them were flattered by Wu Rengui, the master and disciple, and he picked out some good words to say.

"Did you encounter anything at sea?"

During the conversation, Lin Dong mentioned it casually.

Wu Rengui smiled bitterly: "It was really a dangerous encounter. If it weren't for the soldiers holding the mechanical gears of Magic Technology, I would have almost died at the hands of Lord R'lye..."

As he slowly narrated, Lin Dong gradually understood that this guy also met Cthulhu, the evil god who only stared at the Far Eastern Sea.

However, compared to the one named Pan, the Wu family is much more powerful. They have defeated evil gods and illusions many times at sea and found a way out.

It is indeed the home of the richest man.

"By the way, is my eldest brother Ma Xinyi on your ship?"

After the chat reached a certain level, Lin Dong asked suddenly.

Wu Rengui's pupils suddenly shrank, his hands trembled uncontrollably, and he said tremblingly: "Master Ma, Master Ma, he is critically ill, and his body and bones are very dangerous! When he broke into the evil god's illusion, in order to save my father, Master Ma suffered severe injuries. Now... "

"What? Take me there!"

Lin Dong clenched his fists and roared.

He was indeed concerned about Ma Xinyi's safety from the bottom of his heart. Of course, "My family's big tree and the demon horse were all handed over to Ma Xinyi in the first place. Is there any loss to those properties?" This kind of thinking is also true. some.
