Southern Fujian is mountainous. Many generations ago, even Lingnan, which is adjacent to it, did not communicate with it by land, but by sea.
Even if the railway is now connected, due to the high transportation cost, traveling by sea is still the most convenient mode of transportation.
Wenling is one of the few ports that can be entered and exited in the mountainous area surrounded by mountains in southern Fujian.
Because of this, all kinds of people gather here, all kinds of unexpected people, such as the White Lotus Sect.
Lian Gu stood on the side of the ship, waving to Liu Banxian and Yin Xiu with a rather contemptuous tone, "You two, are you afraid of a little girl like me?"
"Small? Small?"
Yin Xiu looked at Liu Banxian with a smile, and then looked at Lian Gu, "O Protector of the White Lotus Sect, who dares to say that you are a little girl?"
"Indeed."
Liu Banxian also touched his chin and couldn't help but look at Lian Gu, "Although she is a bit older, she is definitely not a little girl."
As soon as he said this, not only Lian Gu stared at him, but even Yin Xiu turned around in surprise, "Liu Banxian, what are you doing? We are all gentlemen, and you say such things? You can talk about some of your thoughts in private Forget it, if you say this, what will others think of us?”
"Huh? No..."
Liu Banxian was stunned for a moment and looked at Yin Xiu in disbelief, "Brother Yin, you have changed."
Yin Xiu sighed, "Liu Banxian, everyone changes. The me yesterday and the me today are definitely two different people. I have changed, but you are still the same as before, using such tricks to deceive yourself and others, you Is this all fun? ”
"What if?"
Liu Banxian took off his sunglasses, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes, "Do you think you know me well? Yin Xiu!"
He pushed hard, and the tall Yin Xiu was pushed by him and staggered back a few steps.
At this moment, Yin Xiu twisted her ankle and shot an arrow at Lian Gu who was standing on the side of the ship.
Lian Gu's pupils were trembling, obviously she didn't expect Yin Xiu to be so vicious and did such a scene of brother cutting off his robe just to attack her.
She immediately shouted and smacked Yin Xiu with both hands.
Yin Xiu slapped her in the air. Not only was she not slapped back, but she pushed Lian Gu back to the deck.
Lian Gu was so angry that she stood on the deck with her feet firmly on the ground, her muscles tensed up, and at the same time as there was a crunching sound, a new force rose up and pushed back towards Yin Xiu.
But as soon as the palm came out, she already felt strange, because Yin Xiu did not use force again to defend the palm, but was pushed out by herself like a rag bag.
Before this strange feeling dissipated, Lian Gu had already noticed Yin Xiu's purpose.
I saw him flipping in the air with the help of force, turning over with a kite, and landed behind Lian Gu like a cannonball.
Knowing that she couldn't stop it, Lian Gu immediately crossed her legs, turned around with her waist down, Bagua Youshen raised one hand to lift Yin Xiu's chin, and reached for his crotch with the other hand.
"Brother Yin, be careful, gossip is a dirty trick!"
"You don't have to say it!"
Yin Xiu ignored Lian Gu's probing hand and stabbed her directly in the face without any mercy.
Seeing this, Lian Gu turned her head to the side. After dodging the kick, she spun her feet twice and bumped into Yin Xiu's arms. She was about to reach out with her hands to take his ribs.
At this moment, Yin Xiuyou's dragon power was activated, and the thrusting kick turned into a downward pressure, pressing down on Gu Lian's shoulder.
Her stature immediately shrunk, and the deck beneath her feet creaked and screamed.
Lian Gu put her hands together, feeling a little sore.
"Ms. Ganlin! You even hit women, are you trying to hit on a man!?"
"Then if you don't fight, you won't have so much trouble?"
Despite what she said, Yin Xiu didn't seem to have any intention of pulling back or moving her legs away.
"You know how to use Baguazhang?" Lian Gu's hands were trembling a little.
"Not many people know how to do it. There are only a few ways to go to the Gong family in the north."
As Yin Xiu spoke, she increased the strength on her legs a little more. A piece of the deck under Lian Gu's feet was already slightly raised.
Aunt Lian had no choice but to lower her voice, "Hey, young man, how can I say that I am also the Dharma King of the White Lotus Sect, a well-known figure, and if you do this to me, I will lose my face?"
"Face, can face be used as food?"
Yin Xiu said disdainfully: "If you come out to fool around, you have to stand upright when you are beaten. Since your skills are not as good as others, you have to take it."
"I can bear it, but what about your sailors?"
Aunt Lian smiled softly, "If you look back now, you will soon know whether to give me face or not."
"What if I look back and you attack me?"
Lian Gu frowned, "How can you, a man, be so mother-in-law? I am also the Dharma Protector after all, so I would do such a despicable thing?"
"The better you get, the despicable you get, don't you know?"
"..."
The two could only remain in a stalemate, maintaining this rather weird posture, until Liu Banxian climbed onto the boat with difficulty and patted Yin Xiu on the shoulder.
"Brother Yin, why don't you let her go first? We all have something to discuss. After all, she is also the protector of the White Lotus Sect. She is almost the same as those who are fit. If you suppress her like this, I am worried that those people are really They will kill us.”
"Who?"
Yin Xiu turned around and couldn't help but widen her eyes. Then she sighed, finally relaxed her strength and retracted her leg.
On the deck, the sailors of the Black Widow were all lying in a mess, obviously drugged.
Beside them, the White Lotus cultists were holding steel knives and red-tasseled guns, aiming at the sailors' chests and necks, apparently waiting for Lady Lian's order to kill them on the spot.
"Isn't it necessary?"
Yin Xiu reached out and helped Lian Gu, whose legs and feet were already numb.
"What, young man, are you telling me that it's not necessary now?"
Lian Gu shook his hand away and rubbed her sore shoulders.
Then she didn't look at Yin Xiu, but at Liu Banxian. Obviously, like others, she regarded Liu Banxian as the boss of the group.
There is no need for her to talk to Yin Xiu, a "thug" at the moment.
Liu Banxian was suddenly embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly remembered what Uncle Ming had said before, the way of greeting in southern Fujian that Father Benjamin taught him.
So he became more energetic again, imitating the tone of Benjamin's speech, waving to Lian Gu and everyone in the White Lotus Sect.
"Brothers and sisters of the White Lotus Sect, elder brothers and sisters-in-law, Ganlin Niang! Abo child of the White Lotus Sect, I mean Ganlin Niang!!"
No one spoke, there was only the sound of teeth scraping against each other on the deck.
Yin Xiu's face turned pale and she asked Liu Banxian in a low voice: "Didn't you say you had been to Wenling before? Are you an old Jianghu!?"
"I'm talking nonsense."
Liu Banxian nodded proudly, "A very cunning boatman like Sea Dog, if I don't tell him that I have been to Wenling, he will think that I am easy to deceive."
"Then you didn't pass by here when you were running away?"
"Of course not. I swam there from Shenyue at that time. It was just across the river. I am a good swimmer! You don't know, the water was so cold that day!"
"Is it as cold as this knife?"
Lian Gu waved the knife in front of them, her eyes not much warmer than the steel knife.
"Didn't you say you don't hit the smiling person with your hand?" Liu Banxian was a little confused.
"Don't speak yet..."
Yin Xiu turned her head and glared at Lian Gu, "What do you want? Let those sailors go if you dare, and we will fight one on one!" "It's funny enough."
Lian Gu covered her mouth, "How can I, a woman, have the guts? I can't beat you, and of course I can't challenge you in a duel."
"Then what do you want?" Yin Xiu asked.
"It's very simple. Liu Banxian comes with me, and then you leave too, or neither of you leaves, and lets these sailors go."
Lian Gu lowered her head and gently touched the tip of the knife with her fingers, "How about it? Whether these sailors live or die depends on what you think."
"Then kill them!"
Yin Xiu pulled Liu Banxian and turned around to leave.
This time, Lian Gu was stunned.
When Yin Xiuzhen was about to get off the boat with Liu Banxian, Lian Gu finally spoke.
"Wow! Do you have any humanity! These people here are in the same boat as you after all. They have experienced and fought many rough waves, and you just give up?"
"What if?"
Yin Xiu turned around, "Did you see it? The deck under your feet has cracked."
"Then what?" Lian Gu was a little confused.
"I mean, changing a deck is a lot more troublesome than changing a sailor."
"Okay."
Lian Gu had no choice but to put the knife into its sheath and signaled everyone to put away their weapons.
"What, is this sincere enough? Maybe we can have a chat?"
"What's there to talk about?"
Yin Xiu was still very cold, "You want Liu Banxian, but we won't give it to you, that's all."
"You misunderstood. What the saint meant before coming here was that it would be best if we could catch Liu Banxian, but she felt that we couldn't catch him, so she asked me to have a chat with you and get to know you better when I meet you. Purpose.”
"Huh?"
Liu Banxian pulled down his sunglasses halfway and said, "That White Lotus Saint of yours also has the ability to cut through an iron mouth and predict the unknown."
"The saint can communicate with the Inanimate Mother, and the Inanimate Mother is omniscient and omniscient." Aunt Lian's face was full of piety.
"He is the best, and the saint you mentioned is also the best."
Liu Banxian was quite disdainful of this kind of pretense.
Even if he is asked to come, he can calculate the approximate time that someone will come over without having to do anything in front of the Inanimate Mother or Yuanshi Tianzun, or ask him to come in a dream.
What's more, if they want to go outside the pass by water, Wenling is the only way to go. They may stop or pass by, but there is no reason to avoid it.
They didn't care about the disrespect in Liu Banxian's words. For the people of the White Lotus Sect, they had long been accustomed to being regarded by the outside world as witches, gods and men with strange powers and chaos, or even crazy lunatics.
Don't say that no matter what others say, even if others do it, as long as they don't go too far, the White Lotus Sect doesn't bother to pay attention to them.
In the face of the great cause, everything is just a small matter.
"The saint asked me to ask you, are you going to the outside world for the imperial court or for yourself?"
"For all living beings." Liu Banxian replied loudly.
"What are sentient beings?"
"It's you, me, him, him, her, it."
"So, for this reason, you want to become an enemy of our White Lotus Sect?"
"I am not an enemy of you. I will knock down anyone who blocks my way. I will not tolerate compromise."
Liu Banxian's tone was so decisive that even Yin Xiu couldn't help but admire him.
At this moment, he seemed to have really changed. He was no longer the wretched, cowardly charlatan.
"Okay, then I already know."
Lian Gu waved her hand to signal everyone to retreat.
"Leaving now?" Liu Banxian couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Lian Gu sighed, "If you can't beat the master next to you, why don't you leave? Is it embarrassing to stay here?"
After a pause, she looked at Yin Xiu again and said, "Don't be complacent. None of the guardian kings of our White Lotus Sect is easy to do. Without them, you can't reach Changbai Mountain."
"The Protector of the Wise King?"
Yin Xiu grinned, "No matter whether you are a wise king or a saint, as long as you block my way, you still have to go away."
"Okay!"
Lian Gu gave a thumbs up and turned to leave.
At this moment, a cold light flashed across her face, and before she could react, a sword was held to her neck.
The person who came was none other than Ren Qi. At this moment, his long hair was flying and his eyes were wide open, like the god of death from hell.
"Ren Qi..."
Yin Xiu called out softly, signaling him not to be impulsive.
But in fact, Yin Xiu didn't know if he could still call Ren Qi at this moment. After all, he had a blood feud with the White Lotus Sect, a life-and-death blood feud.
Ren Qi glanced at Yin Xiu, and then swept his eyes across the White Lotus Sect people on the boat.
Then he put the sword in his hand against Lian Gu's neck, and a blood mark immediately appeared on the snow-white neck.
"Witch, let me ask you, why are there so many White Lotus Sects here?
There are some on the boat and on the street. In several alleys, I also saw the memorial tablet of Wu Sheng Lao Mu. Those things are only found at the level of the general altar.
I remember that you have been causing trouble in the northwest area, why did you suddenly come to Wenling? ”
"Of course we are here to cause trouble! Are you here for a trip?"
Lian Gu glanced at him without any fear.
Ren Qi was stunned, took the sword back and inserted it into the sword pouch behind his back.
Liu Banxian couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Ren Qi, you shouldn't be..."
"I only have six swords, and I can't kill so many fools! I only kill the White Lotus Saint and the Saint!"
Ren Qi glanced at Lian Gu who was standing behind him and suddenly sneered.
"Besides, these guys are going to die soon, why bother dirtying my hands and wasting my strength?"
"Huh?"
Lian Gu frowned, "Swordsman, do you think our uprising will fail this time?"
"It's not that I think it's true, it's that I'm sure."
Ren Qi no longer wanted to pay attention to her at this time, and walked slowly back to the cabin with his sword on his back.
"Isn't it because you were wandering around the streets in Wenling so arrogantly because even if the imperial court knew about it, with their troop transport capabilities, it would never be possible to send enough troops over within two weeks?
< br>
By the time a large number of reinforcements arrive, you will have already captured Wenling and controlled the dock, right?
snort! It's not that simple! ”
There was a cold light in the corner of Ren Qi's eyes.
"The imperial court is a behemoth that you cannot imagine." (End of Chapter)
