Chapter 88 Returning to Changzhou

Both Zhang Liheng and Dao Duanhun in the cabin hadn't rested yet. While Zhang Liheng was meditating and practicing, suddenly his lower body shook violently. See what's going on.

As soon as Zhang Liheng stepped out of the cabin, he saw Dao Duan Hun already sitting in the middle. Talk to yourself through sound transmission: "I'm afraid we may have encountered water thieves this time, so don't act rashly, let's see how Brother Zhuo will deal with it!"

At this time, he heard a noisy sound outside the cabin, Zhang Liheng thought that if he really met a snitch, Zhuo Zhuo didn't know how to deal with it alone, but he must have his own idea after hearing Dao Duanhun say so, so He also insisted on keeping the Wentian sword in the cabin, and listened carefully to the movement outside.

I heard Zhuo's father shouting loudly: "Who is it?!"

Before anyone could respond, the ship suddenly trembled again, as if it had been hit hard.Then I heard a burst of laughter, and shouted in a sharp voice: "This section of Drowning Dragon Beach is where I collect protection fees, old man, hand over all the valuable things on the boat to me!"

Dao Duan Hun and Zhang Liheng listened intently in the cabin. With Zhang Liheng's current skills, he could tell that there was more than one person on the other side. There were three boats in total, and each boat had seven or eight people.Judging from the tone of the man just now, it was obvious that this was a group of water thieves who blocked boats on the water and robbed them.The Wentian sword in Zhang Liheng's hand was clenched a little bit, and seeing that Dao Duan Hun had no plans to go out, he didn't act rashly.

At this time, after hearing that the person who came was a water thief, Zhuo's father did not show panic, but was very calm, and heard him say in a calm tone: "Everyone, the old man has been sailing for many years, and he also knows that this is clear water. The old man’s boat has paid enough protection money for the Qingshui Gang to manage the territory managed by the gang, so I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for you to do this, right?”

But he heard the other party snort coldly, and said in a bad tone: "What do you have to do with me for paying the protection fee for Qingshui Gang? I and my brothers only know money, and those who are sensible will hand over all valuable things by themselves. If you are happy, I will leave you alive!"

Zhuo's father was unmoved, but said again: "Heroes, you are going to offend the Qingshui Gang by doing this, you should think about it!"

The leader of the opponent suddenly clapped his hands, and suddenly a series of torches lit up around Zhuo's boat. The flames illuminated the entire river surface red, and three boats of about the same size could be clearly seen. Zhuo and the others surrounded him.

The leader of the water thief said again: "Old man, you can see clearly. I have dozens of brothers. You can't scare me with the name of the Qingshui Gang! I will give you one last chance. The boat will sink to the bottom of the river tonight!"

When the water thief leader was speaking, Dao Duanhun raised the curtain of the boat, and quickly observed the surrounding waters, and found that their boat happened to be at the bend of the river, and the current was much more turbulent than other places. , and at this time the boat was stopped in the middle of the river again, with a distance of several tens of feet from the river banks on both sides.

Dao Duanhun frowned, and when he was thinking about how to get rid of these water thieves, he moved his ears and immediately turned his attention back to Zhuo's father.At this time, even Zhang Liheng said "Huh", because he also heard the sound of footsteps suddenly appearing beside Zhuo's father on their boat.

There are four people in Zhang Liheng's passenger boat. He and Dao died in the cabin, while Zhuo's father was confronting the water thief at the stern, so the only person left was Zhuo's father. Daughter Zhuo Xiaohua.

I don't know why Zhuo Xiaohua ran out suddenly at this time, doesn't she know that there are a group of water thieves watching outside, which is extremely dangerous.Zhang Liheng felt strange, and moved a few steps in the cabin. With the light of the fire outside, he could see the backs of Zhuo Zhuo and his daughter Zhuo Xiaohua in front of him.

I only saw Zhuo Xiaohua whispering a few words in Zhuo's ear. At this time, there were endless noises all around, and Zhuo Xiaohua's voice was extremely low. Neither Dao Duanhun nor Zhang Liheng could clearly hear that she was in Zhuo's ear. What did you say.

On the other hand, the water thief leader on the opposite side saw a young woman coming out of the cabin, his eyes lit up immediately, and as soon as Zhuo Xiaohua finished talking in Father Zhuo's ear, he turned to Father Zhuo with a lewd smile on his face. The duck-like voice shouted: "Old man, I never imagined that there is such a beautiful little lady in your boat. After I collect the belongings on the boat, I will have a good time with the little lady!"

At this moment, Zhuo's father didn't pay attention to him anymore, but said in a cold voice: "So it's a friend of the Chilang Gang today. If you do this tonight, you will break the rules of the world!" The kind old man was very different, Dao Duan Hun smiled slightly when he heard it.

As soon as Zhuo's father finished speaking, under the firelight, he also saw the face of the leader on the opposite side change, his face became ferocious, and he said fiercely: "You old man, how do you know that I am from the Chilang Gang! "When he said that, he stared at Zhuo Xiaohua who was beside Zhuo's father again after he was six or seven feet away, and suddenly understood in his heart that she must have recognized a member of his gang just now, and he couldn't help cursing inwardly. ,
Zhuo's old man was right, this group of people was exactly the members of the Red Wave Gang who stopped their passenger ship during the day today and couldn't collect protection money.The Chilang gang is a small gang in the vicinity, far inferior to the Qingshui gang that is going up, so today when I saw the small flag of the Qingshui gang, I let Lao Zhuo's passenger boat pass by.The Qingshui gang is very powerful, and most of the passing passenger ships don't buy into the Chilang gang's account, which makes the Chilang gang's income shrink day by day.Under such circumstances, the Red Wave Gang started the business of blocking boats and robbing. Today, Zhuo's passenger ship was unlucky to be targeted by them. In the middle of the night, they tried to rob Zhuo's father as a water thief. the boat.

I thought I would use a few words of intimidation, so that Zhuo's father would get the property without resisting, and then kill people and sink the ship, but Zhuo Xiaohua recognized them as members of the Chilang Gang.Seeing Zhuo Xiaohua's good looks, the leader of the Red Wave Gang with a voice like a duck's male wanted to take her back to make fun of her, but now he decided not to keep Zhuo's father and daughter.

The leader waved his hand and said, "Brothers, wash this boat with your hands, leaving no one behind!"

When Zhang Liheng in the cabin heard that the water thieves were going to attack, he couldn't help feeling anxious. Outside, Father Zhuo and his daughter were still there, holding the Wentian Sword, and they were about to jump out.At this time, he was held back by Dao Duan Hun, and Zhang Liheng looked at Dao Duan Hun anxiously, not knowing what he meant.

Dao Duan Hun said softly: "We don't need to take action yet, Brother Zhuo will deal with them, don't worry, you and I just need to beware of the water thieves in the other two boats!" Zhang Liheng looked at Dao Duan in disbelief after listening. Hun, what Dao Duan Hun said meant to let Zhuo's father and daughter deal with a group of bandits who blocked the boat and robbed them. How amazing is this!

Before Zhang Liheng could think about it, he heard the sound of weapons clashing outside the boat, and he heard the water thief leader shouting loudly like a duck: "This old man is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, brothers, be careful!"

Just when the seven or eight water thieves in the leading boat of the Chilang Gang approached and wanted to attack Father Zhuo and his daughter, Father Zhuo suddenly swung his oar stick, whirred twice, and took the two leading water thieves away. The slap made his brain burst, and then he backhanded two sticks, and then flew the two slaps into the icy river water.

The moves that Zhuo's father showed are skillful and seasoned, and his strength is no less than a few hundred catties. It is obvious that he is a person with martial arts, and his martial arts are not bad.Zhang Liheng and Dao Duan Hun also saw these two moves by Zhuo Dao in the cabin, and Zhang Liheng immediately understood why Dao Duan Hun didn't let him do it. Zhuo Lao Dao is a master of the rivers and lakes, and his worries seemed superfluous up.

At this moment, Zhang Liheng and Dao Duan Hun walked out at the same time, and saw that Zhuo's father used a scull stick as a Daguan knife, and danced vigorously. A water thief fell into the water.While dealing with the approaching water thieves, he found Dao Duan Hun and Zhang Liheng coming out of the cabin, so he said to Dao Duan Hun and Zhang Liheng: "You two knights, the old man is making a fool of himself in front of the two of you. Let the old man deal with these water thieves, how about the two of you standing up for the old man?"

Dao Duan Hun replied: "Brother, just do it, my two brothers will fight for my brother!"

Zhuo's father said yes, and jumped onto the enemy's boat a few feet away with his clinging oar stick.The leader of the Chilang gang didn't want Zhuo's father to be so good at martial arts, and when he saw him jumping directly in front of him, he was shocked, and hurriedly picked up his single-handed sword to deal with it.

The Red Wave Gang came tonight with a total of three pirate boats, and the first one had already been dispatched by Zhuo's father, and at this time they were fighting with the leader of the other boat's leader.Zhang Liheng saw that Zhuo's stick-stick moves were wide open and closed, each move was extremely violent, so he asked Dao Duanhun, "Brother Dao, what kind of martial arts does Zhuo's father use?"

Dao Duan Hun saw the number of Zhuo's martial arts after seeing his moves, and replied: "Brother Zhuo, this is the stick method of the Kongtong School. It seems to be open and close, but you want to If you look closely, you can see that my brother has actually made this stick method so that no water leaks, and it has fully captured the essence of the Kongtong School's thousand-fold stick method!"

When Dao Duan Hun was speaking, he suddenly heard Zhuo Xiaohua exclaim in surprise: "No, the thief is going to set fire to the ship!" Dao Duan Hun heard it, and immediately opened his eyes to look, and he saw the rest of the ship. The thieves have fired their flaming bows and are about to shoot at their boats!

Dao Duanhun also murmured in his heart that it was not good, both he and Zhang Liheng had lived on land for a long time and were not familiar with water, if these water thieves were allowed to set fire to the boat, it would be very difficult for Jiang Xinzhong to escape!As soon as Zhuo Xiaohua yelled, Daoduanhun flew up, and at the same time took a plank of the boat and shot towards the thief boat!

As soon as the water thief's rockets shot out, Dao Duan Hun got on top of the pirate ship, without using the Duan Hun Dao, with a few swift palms, he knocked down all the water pirates who were shooting arrows from the bow.But the few rockets that had already been fired were thrown into the river by Zhang Liheng's Wentian Sword before they hit their hull.

As for Dao Duan Hun's boat, the remaining six or seven water thieves at the stern saw how powerful Dao Duan Hun was, and before Dao Duan Hun could attack them, they all jumped into the river.

At this time, I heard Zhuo's old man's voice shouting urgently: "Xiao Hua, be careful of thieves digging boats in the water!"

　Tyrant mud monkey!
