Chapter 365 368 Destroyer

The sail turned a sharp turn, sailed onto a flat and wide river, and let it go downstream at full speed.

After the boat passed Yanshi for ten miles, it slowly docked.

Due to the small number of people and the lightness of the boat, the warships following from Kyoto were thrown far away.

The sound of hooves on the shore roared, and my old friend Yang Gongqing chased him with only a dozen or so riders, and then boarded the boat alone.

Shen Mu laughed and said, "General Yang really has the guts and insight to dare to board the ship alone."

Yang Gongqing came in front of Shen Mu, glanced at Wang Xuanying who was still lying unconscious on the ground, then greeted Xu Ziling Xu Xingzhi who was on the stand, and sighed: "My lord Shangshu is to blame for this trip, I, Yang Gongqing, have nothing to say. Can say."

Shen Mu said: "By the way, tell the general two things. If the general is happy, you can tell Shichong."

Yang Gongqing wondered, "What's the matter?"

Shen Mu then frankly told Li Shimin that Li Shimin might surrender to Li Mi and that Rong Fengxiang should be Bichen, and then said with a smile: "If they don't make them worry, it's hard to have a peaceful day, how can I be so angry."

Yang Gongqing changed his expression and said: "These two incidents are not trivial. I must report to Wang Shichong immediately by flying pigeons."

Just hearing him call Wang Shichong's name directly, one can tell that his dissatisfaction with Wang Shichong is beyond words.

Shen Mu leaned over and said in a low voice: "The general will take the person back, but you must remember that Wang Shichong can treat me like this, and he can treat the general in the same way in the future. Serving the king of tigers and wolves will not lead to good results." of."

Yang Gongqing said with a wry smile: "I understood a long time ago! The three of you take care of yourself."

When Wang Xuanying was mentioned, he went alone.

After sending Xuxing ashore, the two continued their journey.

They breathed a sigh of relief when the sail turned into the Yellow River. On this vast river, it was much easier to escape or hide.

Shen Mu sighed: "When we set out from the south, it seemed like the whole world was under our feet. Unexpectedly, there were many twists and turns. Now we are even more compelled by the situation. We have to turn back to the south, and we can't get through the pass. Thinking about it makes people feel lost. .”

Xu Ziling said: "One day the Yingui faction will uproot them, so that they will never be able to harm anyone again."

With murderous intent in his eyes, Shen Mu nodded and said, "Except for Yu Wenhuaji, the one who hates us the most now is the Yin Gui Sect, the blood debt must be paid in blood."

Xu Ziling said: "This is also the reason why I am willing to accompany you to Jiangdu, otherwise I will rush to Baling immediately to pick up Sister Su's mother and son. I still don't understand why my father is willing to seek skin with the tiger and cooperate with the Yingui faction to conquer the world. There must be some reason for it that we don't know yet."

Shen Mu said: "What the fuck! Tomorrow, after we enter the Tongji Canal, we will go to Jiangdu day and night. But we need to replenish dry food and water, because it will take at least another three days and three nights to reach Jiangdu."

Xu Ziling pondered: "I always have some ominous premonition that this journey may not be so smooth."

Shen Mu patted his long sword on his back and said, "One day we will be safe and sound? Whoever is not afraid of death, let the horse come here! Ha!"

At noon the next day, the boat arrived at Liangdu, Dacheng, which is located in the west of Pengcheng, beside the Tongji Canal.

They have not yet decided who is responsible for guarding the boat and who is going to buy food, and the local heyday figures have already arrived.

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling held the mood of letting things go, and planned to pay the road money according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, so as to avoid unnecessary troubles.

Shen Mu untied his long sword and went to the pier to negotiate with the visitor.

The leader of the Hey Gang saw that Shen Mu's body was as mighty as a god, and he looked calm and composed. He was also an old man, so he clasped his fists in salute and said, "Little brother Pengliang Huizhitang Xiangzhu Chen Jiafeng, may I ask this good man's name? What township and county are you from?"

Shen Mu immediately remembered Ren Meimei, the third head of the Pengliang Society's "Beautiful Lady", and realized that this area is within the sphere of influence of the Pengliang Society. After finishing the business in Dongdu, hurry back to Jiangdu now. Ha! Of course there are rules for berths at the berths, please tell me how much taels I should pay to the Guild, Lord Chen Xiang."

Seeing how humble he was, Chen Jiafeng immediately became proud and smiled, "Looking at Brother Fu's high spirits, he must have scooped up enough oil and water. Brother Fu's ship is also the best type of cargo. The strangest thing is that Brother Fu seems to have only one ship." The man is on board."

Of course Shen Mu understood the trick he wanted.

Underworld characters will follow the golden rule of "be polite first and then fight" when they meet strangers. In short, they first find out the opponent's background before deciding how to slaughter them in order to seek the greatest benefit.

If he doesn't show any tricks, the opponent will take an inch and even confiscate the boat.

Along with Chen Jiafeng, there were seven or eight armed men. Just by their expressions, one could tell they were local bullies and hooligans.

Shen Mu scratched his head and said: "Brother Chen is right. Since my younger brother dared to drive a price boat with my brother to travel north and south, of course it is a bit trustworthy. But it is because we are all in the same boat, and we respect the 'ghost' very much." Claw'Nie respects his old man, and he has some friendship with Ren Meimei, the third head of the Guild's 'Yan Mistress', so he acts according to the rules, brother Chen should understand what younger brother means!"

Chen Jiafeng asked in amazement: "Which online friend is Brother Fu?"

Shen Mu angrily took out half an ingot of gold, stuffed it into his hand and said, "A real person doesn't show his face, and his face is not a real person. If Brother Chen is willing to sell his friendship, then don't get to the bottom of it. Just pretend you haven't met this little brother."

Ignore him and turn back to the boat.

Xu Ziling was pulling the sail alone, Shen Mu said while helping, "Peng Lianghui seems to have controlled this waterway, but where do they belong now?"

Xu Ziling suddenly said: "It turns out that it is Ren Meimei's subordinate. It is planned to go to Xu Yuanlang, or Li Zitong. Hey! Could it be Yu Wenhuaji?"

After setting up the sail, Shen Mu said, "I'm in charge of going into the city to purchase, you don't want people to snatch the boat away."

Xu Ziling smiled and said, "If it's Zhu Yuyan and his like, don't blame me."

Shen Mu laughed and left.

Stepping into the gate of the city, I still don't know which force controls the city.

In other cities, unless they are in an emergency period of offensive and defensive wars, they are willing to allow business travelers to enter and exit, which can not only collect tariffs, but also maintain trade.

But this important town in this section of Tongji Canal looks like an undefended city, not only does it not have the proper flag to show its sovereignty, but even half of the guards guarding the gate are missing.This situation is very rare even in this war-torn era.

Shen Mu entered the city in a daze.

The main street in the city is a cross-shaped stone building street that runs through four gates, and the alleys form a square grid leading to the street. Shi Jiukong, most of the shops are closed, as if a catastrophe is imminent, and some of the shops have been looted.

There are only scattered pedestrians on the road, all passing by in a hurry, like a dead city.

Footsteps come from behind.

Shen Mu stopped and stood in the middle of the street.

Chen Jiafeng came to his side, sighed and said: "War is really harmful, a prosperous city has become like this."

Shen Mu deeply felt the same, and asked, "What happened?"

Chen Jiafeng said in a deep voice: "It's hard to describe in words. If you had come a few days earlier, you would have seen the terrifying scene of tens of millions of people crowding the roads, crying and screaming, and running for their lives in all directions."

Shen Mu was puzzled and said, "Who owns this city? And who is going to attack the city?"

Chen Jiafeng replied: "This city has gone through several hands, the last one was Xu Yuanlang, but good times don't last long. Recently, because Dou Jiande sent troops across the river to attack Xu Yuanlang's base city, Xu Yuanlang hastily dispatched troops from Liangdu to go to the city. Without aid, Liangdu’s defenses were weak, and in the end even the hundreds of defenders slipped away, turning Liangdu into a deserted city.”

Shen Mu asked in astonishment, "Is Dou Jiande that scary?"

Chen Jiafeng said: "Of course Dou Jiande is not terrible. In terms of reputation, he is much better than Xu Yuanlang, but Yu Wenhuaji's dog-legged bandit soldiers are more terrifying than Hades' ghosts."

Shen Mu's eyes lit up immediately.

Chen Jiafeng continued: "That day when Yu Wenhua and his troops returned from Jiangdu to the north, they grabbed wherever they went, mutilated the people and raped women, so when the news spread, everyone rushed to hide in the nearby countryside. Alas! It's not easy to go at the beginning of the year, and there are wars everywhere."

Shen Mu said in a deep voice: "Will Yu Wenhuaji come in person?"

Chen Jiafeng said: "No one knows about this. We are monks hitting the clock for a day. If the situation is not right, we will escape. If Brother Fu doesn't mind, can you send us to Jiangdu in a righteous way?"

Shen Mu said in astonishment: "Isn't it easy for you to go to Jiangdu?"

After Chen Jiafeng stared at him for a while, his face sank and he said: "So you are not familiar with the situation in Jiangdu at all, and you don't know that Li Zitong has re-established a gate in the canal, and no ships are allowed to sail there unless they are related to them. Jiang Du, otherwise, why would I beg you."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "I really don't know the situation in Jiangdu, it's because I haven't been back for a long time, but it has nothing to do with Li Zitong, brother Chen can rest assured."

Chen Jiafeng asked dubiously, "What's the relationship between Brother Fu and Li Zitong?"

Shen Mu didn't answer and asked instead: "Your Pengliang Society can be listed as one of the eight gangs and ten associations. Could it be a fuel-efficient lamp? Why don't you take the opportunity to take over Liang? It's just a look of letting others beat you back." ?”

Chen Jiafeng sighed: "If you didn't realize that Brother Fu is not an ordinary person, I wouldn't be bothered to talk to you so much. Today is different from the past, when the emperor was killed, we were under the leadership of Gang Leader Nie. We took down Pengcheng and The more than 40 villages and towns near Liangdu originally thought that they could dominate the land and achieve great things. Unexpectedly, they were defeated by Yu Wenhua and Xu Yuanlang successively. Recently, even Pengcheng was captured by barbarians. Our Pengliang Society has survived in name only. I don’t even know where the leader is.”

Shen Mu was stunned and said, "What barbarian?"

Chen Jiafeng said angrily: "The barbarians are those damned Khitans. They took advantage of the war in the Central Plains and took advantage of the opportunity to collude with the scum of our Han people and form the East Sea Alliance to plunder the towns along the coast. They robbed rich women and shipped them back to Pinglu."

Shen Mu asked in astonishment: "Are the Khitan people so powerful? Where is Pinglu?"

Chen Jiafeng said: "Their riding and shooting skills are all very good. The current leader of the Eastern Sea League is called Brother Ku, the eldest son of the Qiqimo Club. He is good at using double axes and has strong martial arts skills. Our second leader also died under his hands. As for Ping I don’t know exactly where the hut is, but it seems to be near Goryeo, and it’s the territory of the Khitan people.”

Xuan sighed again: "Although they are not many in number, they come and go like the wind, and they can escape to the sea in an instant. So far, no one has done anything to catch them."

Footsteps sounded suddenly.

The two followed the sound and saw one of Chen Jiafeng's subordinates rushing over angrily, "It's not good! Someone hijacked the ship!"

Xu Ziling's crow's mouth was right. Not long after Shen Mu left, Zhu Yuyan came to attack Xu Ziling and robbed the boat. The two sat down on the bank.

Shen Mu smiled wryly and said, "It's unexpected that a word will become a prophecy."

At this moment, Chen Jiafeng arrived with a group of big men, and everyone showed admiration and respect on their faces.

Shen Mu glanced at them angrily, and said, "The boat is lost! Find a way to go to Jiangdu by yourself!"

Chen Jiafeng said embarrassingly: "We really don't know Taishan, but we don't know that the two are the world-renowned Master Kou and Master Xu."

Xu Ziling sighed: "What's so famous? The boats are gone."

Chen Jiafeng was overjoyed, admired Shen Mu and the two from the bottom of his heart, and bowed to invite them to have a drink.How can the two be polite, let them go back to the city.

Chen Jiafeng ordered someone to remove the wooden boards covering the restaurant, bowed and said: "Master Kou and Master Xu, please sit down at any table, we will immediately start the stove and light a fire, and cook some authentic special dishes for the two uncles. People go to collect it, and send it immediately."

The two were very interested and sat down at the big round table in the middle.

The owner has left for a few days, and the tables and chairs are still not stained with dust.

Through the open door, Shen Mu looked at the cold street under the setting sun, shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that a prosperous city where people live and work in peace and contentment will suffer catastrophe in the blink of an eye!"

Xu Ziling still didn't understand what was going on, and asked, "What catastrophe?"

At this time, a member of the Pengliang Club happily walked into the shop with a jug of wine, looking for pots and cups for them, very busy.

Shen Mu watched the wine being poured into the cup, and said calmly: "I heard that Yuhua is born!"

Xu Ziling was startled, and shouted: "What?"

Shen Mu hurriedly said, "I'm exaggerating a little bit. It should be said that people from Yuwenhua bones may come, but I don't know if Yuwenhua bones are willing to send them to our door to die at such a cheap price."

The group of people were lighting lamps for them, and when they heard the words, they said with admiration: "Master Kou and Master Xu are really amazing, they don't take Yu Wenhua... Yu Wenhuaji seriously at all."

Shen Mu scolded with a smile: "How dare you eavesdrop on our secret words, get out of here quickly."

The group of people accepted it happily, and said respectfully: "Thank you, villain, get away immediately!" They went away happily, and it seemed an incomparable honor to be able to scold Shen Mu.

"Ding"!
The two cups collided, and they were both drank in one gulp.

At this time, the two smelled the aroma of cooking from the kitchen at the back, and looked at the gradually darkened street, feeling lazy and unwilling to move a finger.

All the people and things that happened in the past seem to have nothing to do with this moment, as far away as if they never happened.

Shen Mu untied the long sword, put it on the table, stretched his waist, put his feet on the edge of the table, and sighed comfortably: "Young Master Ling! Do you have the feeling that the whole city belongs to you? ?”

Suddenly, sharp hoofbeats came from the direction of the city gate, and it took a while to stop.

The two of them didn't hear it and were unmoved.

Xu Ziling said thoughtfully, "You seem to have forgotten about Song Yuzhi, right?"

Shen Mu was stunned for a while, nodded and said: "Yes! I haven't thought of her for a long time. Song Yuzhi is a real lady, a lady who was cultivated by a high-ranking family, but she has a fundamental difference from us, that is, she is a A supporter of the rules of the game, but I'm just a deviant destroyer. It's just this difference, we are destined not to be together. What do you think of what I did and what I did, which one is pleasing to her eyes?"

Xu Ziling pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "But have you ever thought about it, this is what attracts her to you?"

Shen Mu smiled wryly and said: "For her, it's just a kind of indulgence and indulgence that she hates so much, that's why she suffers, and I feel very tired. Both you and I are people who don't understand etiquette. The most leisurely. She is another kind of person, so in the end we are all screwed, and the superficial reasons are just her excuses."

Xu Ziling said in surprise: "Although I think the real situation may not be as you said, but your analysis of her is undoubtedly very in-depth, and I didn't expect you to have such a profound thought."

Shen Mu sighed: "I have chosen a long road without turning back, and everything else has to be thrown away. Sometimes I really envy that kid Hou Xibai, and when I am happy, I will make bubbles with this beautiful girl or that charming baby, and spend my free time on the fan Draw his mother's two strokes, but also pretend to be a lonely poet and knight-errant, roaming the rivers and lakes without slowing down, watching the fire from the other side. Ha!"

Xu Ziling smiled and said, "What's so funny?"

Shen Mu patted his forehead and said: "I just feel sorry for him, if you, Young Master Ling, didn't show up, maybe Master Concubine Xuan would favor him!"

Xu Ziling said angrily, "You're going to drag me into the water again, you kid has bad intentions."

At this time, Chen Jiafeng came to the table with a solemn expression, and said: "Just received the report that a group of about five to six hundred knights is coming from the direction of Pengcheng, and they can arrive here within two hours."

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling exchanged disappointed glances, of course the person who came was not from Yu Wenhuaji.

Chen Jiafeng continued: "The ones who came must be the Khitan barbarians from the East China Sea League. We, Peng Liang, will have a bloody feud with them. If the two masters are willing to stand up, we are willing to join them."

Shen Mu was puzzled and said, "Aren't you planning to sneak away? Why are you suddenly eager to try again?"

Chen Jiafeng sat down and said: "Frankly speaking, although we wish to eat their flesh and drink their blood, we also know how much it weighs."

Shen Mu poured a glass of wine for him, and said with a smile: "Don't have such high expectations for us, a charge on the battlefield is not the same as a decisive battle in the rivers and lakes, facing five or six hundred people, even Ning Daoqi can't kill many of them. "

Xu Ziling waited for him to finish his drink, and asked in a deep voice, "How many of you are there?"

Chen Jiafeng wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, and replied: "There are only 53 people. We have already discussed, as long as Master Kou and Master Xu are willing to nod, we will desperately fight against the Khitan thieves."

Shen Mu said: "How many people are there in the city?"
