Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 425 Zhang Xiu Rescued
"Help! Help!"

After Zhang Xiu and the others saw the merchant ship, they all used up the last of their strength and yelled at the merchant ship in the distance.

Half an hour later, the merchant ship came to Zhang Xiu and the others and salvaged them.

At this time, their hands and feet were already swollen, and after being rescued on the big boat, it was difficult for the weakest of them to stand up.

"Thank you for your help!"

After Zhang Xiu boarded the boat, he stood there unsteadily, thanking everyone on board.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"

The old man at the head of the boat also bowed his hands to Zhang Xiu, looked at the people in front of him with a smile and asked, "I said, why do you guys float on this sea?"

Hearing the old man's question, Hu Che'er immediately got excited, and immediately said, "Isn't it because of...!"

Hu Che'er had just finished speaking, when Zhang Xiu hurriedly picked it up, and said, "It's all because I was murdered by an adulterer, and our family was ruined. I can only escape by myself, leaving my wife and son behind. It's been killed!"

"Oh I got it!"

The old man looked at the soldiers following Zhang Xiu again, and then said again: "I see that you are all tall and brave, are you from the army?"

"Well, I did serve as a soldier for several years, and I was appointed as a corporal commander. To be honest, I was forced to flee because I provoked someone I shouldn't have provoked in the army, and went north to join relatives!"

What Zhang Xiu said was like what happened in real life.

"Oh, so that's the case, that's good, that's good, as long as you don't annoy Liu Jingzhou's Zhang Xiu a few days ago, Liu Jingzhou has ordered it, and if anyone dares to let them board the ship, it will be regarded as collaborating with the enemy." If you deal with it, you will lose your head!"

While the old man was talking, he observed Zhang Xiu's reaction when he spoke.

But Zhang Xiu looked at the old man like a normal person.

But Hu Che'er was different, he glanced at Zhang Xiu in surprise, then lowered his head again, without saying a word.

The rest of Zhang Xiu's soldiers were also there without saying a word, just watching the old man quietly, if the old man saw the clue, they would suddenly attack.Even if they are extremely weak now, they will suddenly explode and use their lives to protect Zhang Xiu.

But Zhang Xiu concealed it very well, the old man just nodded and let them enter the cabin to rest.

"General, how do you know that Liu Biao will act like this?"

Hu Che'er looked at Zhang Xiu and asked in confusion.

"Of course, Liu Biao is very insidious. Since he gave us this small boat, he will not let us go so easily. There are many merchant ships passing by on this sea. He must have expected that we will take merchant ships. , so we must not expose our identities, we must not have the heart to harm others, and we must not have the heart to guard against others!"

Zhang Xiu looked at the weak people in front of him, and said, "Hurry up and recover your strength, and then you will have the strength to protect yourself. Even if they want to harm us, we still have a chance to resist!"

"Here!"

Everyone hurriedly grabbed the pancakes, mutton and other food in front of them, ate and drank, and after eating, everyone covered themselves with quilts, fell into a deep sleep, and recovered their strength.

At the same time, a group of people surrounded the old man on the deck.

"Old Hong, these people are very suspicious, could they really be Zhang Xiu's group!"

A young man said to the old man.

"Yes, I also feel that they are Zhang Xiu's group. You know, there was a storm in the sea a few days ago. Except for large merchant ships, ordinary small boats will not go to sea. I feel that they are Zhang Xiu's group!"

Another person spoke.

"This!"

The leader, Mr. Hong, looked a little hesitant. He had never met Zhang Xiu before, and Zhang Xiu's calm appearance just now really made people unable to doubt.

"Old Hong! Rather kill the wrong one, don't let it go!"

Someone else spoke.

"It's better to wait a few more days to see if they will reveal any flaws. If they reveal flaws, it will not be too late for us to take action. If they are not Zhang Xiu's group, if we kill them, wouldn't it be a mistake? Good man, if word of this gets out, how can our Hong family's merchant ships go to sea!"

Elder Hong answered.

"Old Hong, you have seen them too. They are all tall and strong. If this is Zhang Xiu and the others, once they regain their strength, we will not be able to beat them. They are all soldiers. We It’s just a bunch of common people, how could they beat them!”

Someone worried.

"It doesn't matter! If they are really Zhang Xiu and the others, we can also use tricks, poison them, or get them drunk, and we can still deal with them!"

Old Hong is a person who has experienced great storms. Even Zhang Xiu and the others, Old Hong has plenty of ways to deal with them.

"General!"

Hu Che'er had the strongest physical strength and woke up in the evening.

"Ok?"

Zhang Xiu, who was still asleep, was called up, and then looked at Hu Che'er.

"What's up?"

Zhang Xiu looked at Hu Che'er and asked.

"Hey, General, I'm hungry again!"

Hu Che'er didn't wake up from sleep, but from starvation.

"Fuck! You foodie!"

Zhang Xiubai glanced at Hu Che'er, and then touched his waist with his hands.

This touch made Zhang Xiu feel embarrassed, the money bag at his waist had already fallen into the sea, where was the money left?

"What happened to the general?"

Hu Che'er looked at Zhang Xiu's embarrassed look, and then asked.

"this!"

Zhang Xiu touched his nose, and then asked, "Does any of you have money?"

Hu Che'er also reached out to his waist, but his money bag had already fallen into the sea.

Then he shook his head and said, "General, we have no money left. The money has already been thrown into the sea. Not to mention the money, we only have the clothes we have left!"

"Ugh, we can't eat and drink for nothing, let me see what valuable things I have on me!"

Zhang Xiu touched her body while talking.

After touching for a long time, Zhang Xiu took out a jade pendant from his chest, then looked at the jade pendant with a wry smile and said, "Hehe, this is the only thing left!"

"General, you can't do it!"

When Hu Che'er saw the jade pendant in Zhang Xiu's hand, he panicked, stopped Zhang Xiu in a hurry, and said, "General, this is given to you by the old master. This is your family's heirloom jade pendant. You can't give this to me." They!"

"Hehe, it's already at this time, and what are you talking about? It's just a piece of jade pendant. I'll give it to that old Hong in exchange for our food along the way!"

Zhang Xiu smiled wryly, then walked out with the jade pendant.
