Chapter 23: Grain robbery (Five)

In the dark night sky, there are stars shining with a down-and-out light.

On the river surface, two boats were quietly parked near the shore. The boat's draught was a little deep, so I didn't dare to dodge too much, for fear of being stranded. After all, this is not a pier, but just a temporary place to settle down.

The dim horse lantern on the bow illuminated the bow of the boat.

The two men, each holding a knife, kept looking around.

"Ha..." One of them yawned, so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes.

"Fourth brother, I'll take a moment." He said to the man on the adjacent boat.

"I'll ask you to find the slut in Gaojiazhuang, the third brother. Seeing you like this, I'll call you next time, I'll definitely not be as cowardly as you." The fourth brother said.

"I'm afraid she won't do it. If we go there, we won't be tormenting her to death." The third brother smiled.

"Be more energetic. If the second brother comes to check the night, we will definitely beat us up when we see that we are lazy." said the fourth brother.

"What's so scary about this? We have walked this waterway so many times, but it was not very peaceful?" The third brother said dissatisfied.

"It's a bit messy recently. I heard that the Red Turban Army is making trouble everywhere, grabbing big households and distributing grain. Master Liu's grain must be their target." said the fourth child.

"The red scarf is still far away, and I can't make a fuss here at all. But the leaders of Furong Village, if they are moved..."

"So, let's be careful, don't let others throw it into the river and feed it to the turtle." As he said that, he looked up at the shore in the distance, and the dark depth was everywhere, with murderous intent.

"Swoosh!" A small voice suddenly came.

Then, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my throat, and a thin bamboo pole had already penetrated into my throat.

He wanted to speak, but couldn't speak. His Adam's apple was broken and he wanted to breathe, but he couldn't breathe.

The eyes gradually blurred.

"Plop!" fell into the water.

The third brother opened his squinting eyes and the fourth brother was gone.

He stood up and said, "The third brother..."

Before he finished speaking, a severe pain in his chest.

An arrow has been deeply inserted into the lungs.

He couldn't breathe, and the blood began to flood the alveoli wantonly, and he gasped.

"Someone attacked..." Before he could finish his words, another arrow shot and penetrated his brain along his open mouth.

He fell down weakly and lay on the bow of the boat.

"Go on!" Several people climbed up to the bow of the boat in wetness.

"It's all you, so close, so accurate!" A complaining voice came.

"When I was shooting, a fish happened to bite my foot..."

"That's because your feet are too stinky!"

"Stop talking, quickly control the people in the cabin, those who dare to resist, kill!" A voice came, and it was Tang He who spoke, who was the commander of the sneak attack.

In order to increase the power of the surprise attack, Zhang Yang sent Tang He and Shixin to the team for the sneak attack. Shiyi shot a missed arrow, Shixin made up for it, and laughed at him by the way.

Shid, Shiyi, and Shixin, the three of them jumped onto another boat next to them and were about to rush in.

Shi Yi felt a little embarrassed just now, so he rushed to the front this time.

Shi Xin grabbed Shi Yi's arm.

"What are you doing?" Shi Yi turned around.

Shi Xin pointed to the side.

A figure was clearly printed on the hatch of the ship, raised his waist and made an oblique slash.

The first person who entered will definitely be cut in half with one knife.

The three of them stopped and raised the combo crossbow in their hands.

Shi Xin kicked the man's waist knife just now and kicked him into the cabin.

The figure immediately slashed forward and violently.

"Swoosh, swosh." The three arrows were fired together.

The figure fell to the ground and stopped moving.

Then, pull the pull rod, and another arrow is immediately launched at any time.

This combo crossbow is really a good thing when used. It doesn't need to fight with one's own hands and kills countless enemies without any damage.

This time the three rushed in.

In the cabin, there were only a few ragged boatmen squatting at the bottom of the bilge and trembling.

"Where are the rest?" Shi Xin asked.

"No more, we are just a few of us. The man just now has been shot to death." One of them said in a trembling voice.

"Is that true?" Shixin asked. Could it be that Li Bosheng's inquiry was wrong? Didn't he say that there were four or five thugs on each ship? Why are there no one except these boatmen?

Looking at their pitiful appearance, Shiyi walked up and said, "Get up!"

"Be careful!" Shixin shouted.

Suddenly, the boatman with a tremolo just now jumped up suddenly, with a bright dagger in his hand, and penetrated Shiyi's chest.

Two people jumped off the pile of grain behind, waved their machetes and rushed over.

Shi Xin instinctively fell backwards, and the combo crossbow in his hand shot out the arrow without hesitation.

Shit and Shixin didn't have time to think too much, so they picked up the combo crossbow in their hands and repeated a movement: pulling the rod, hanging the string, aiming, and shooting.

The two men holding the sword had not yet rushed to the front, and there were already a few bamboo arrows on their bodies. At such a close distance, they almost penetrated their entire bodies.

Looking at the people who came to rob the food, they fell into the cabin helplessly.

"Second brother!" Shi Xin shouted anxiously.

I didn't see clearly just now, and I wonder if the sharp dagger caused harm to Shi Yi.

"I'm fine!" Shiyi pushed away the person pressing on him.

When the man waved the dagger to him just now, he was a little scared and fell backwards instinctively, shooting a crossbow arrow. The arrow penetrated the man and pressed him on his body. The dagger also deviated from his position, rubbed his armpits, cut two holes into his arms and ribs, and blood was gushing.

A sensation of pain came, and Shiyi felt that he was really lucky just now. If a dagger was stabbed in his chest, he would probably have explained it here.

"How is this?" Zhang Yang's voice came from outside the cabin.

How was it? Three more were killed, and Shi Yi was also in the lottery. There were three people on the ground who were trembling all the time, and they didn't dare to look up. Looking at the situation in front of them, the three of them didn't know how to answer.

"Is Shi Yi injured?" Zhang Yang came in and saw Shi Yi who had just gotten up.

"It's okay, I'm just too careless when I scratch my skin." Shi Yi said.

If the crossbow in his hand had not been so sharp and could be shot continuously in a short period of time, it would have been dangerous if the two of them had fought in close combat.

My elder brother is really a genius. The weapons he prepared for him are useful and practical. Continuous shooting is both accurate and ruthless. It is a powerful weapon for melee combat!

Everyone pointed at the remaining people on the ground in their hands, afraid that someone among them would suddenly hurt people.

"You guys, raise your head." Zhang Yang said.

A pair of frightened eyes looked at the person in front of him, the vicious Long Er and the fierce servants, who could not take any advantage under their hands. These people are very strong. Several boatmen are very worried about their lives. Will they kill themselves to silence them?

"One of the boss, we are all boatmen, and we were forcibly hired. Please spare us!" One of the boatmen mustered up the courage and said.

The boss? Do you treat me like a pole? Zhang Yang thought depressedly.

"You have seen our appearance. Do you think I will let you go?" Zhang Yang said.

Why don’t you even understand this principle? I just asked you to raise your head and really lift it up. Now that I saw it, I will definitely be killed in order to prevent leaks.

"Give me your life! The boss!" Several people kept kowtowing.

"Give you two choices. First, I will kill them all, and second, I will work for me. First, I will declare that I will not bury you, and I will push them into the water to feed the fish."

"We are willing to work for you." Several people nodded like chickens pecking at them.

"Okay, I'll take you to a place. After you arrive, if you do well, you will be given twenty-decades a day and you will have enough free meals. If you don't do well, you will feed the fish."

Is there still a salary? Is it free to eat? This is better than now! Several people seemed to have not understood it, and looked at Zhang Yang in surprise.

"Now, throw these corpses into the river for me." Zhang Yang said.

"Okay, let's do it right away."

Seeing the boatmen starting to move the bodies, Shixin quietly said to Zhang Yang: "Brother, I'm afraid there will be problems like this?"

"Don't worry!" Zhang Yang said: "I have counted it. The bodyguards and servants have been solved by us. These people are ordinary boatmen and have no grudges with us. We should not commit more crimes. Moreover, we are short of manpower and need labor like them. We have both food and money to make money. I am afraid that we will not be able to drive them away if we want to!"

Zhang Yang suddenly remembered something again and asked, "Shixin, what are the poles in Furong Village special after committing the crime?"

"They like to dig out all the eyes of people so that they don't have to worry about being recognized in the underworld." Shi Xin's eyes turned: "I understand! I'll do it now."

Zhang Yang nodded with satisfaction. It would be the best way to do this. This account was dependent on Furong Village.
