Chapter 785 Decisive Killing

When Gao Bufan and others took a boat into Sichuan at Yiling Wharf, it was still quite lively here, but now the water is calm and the river is flying. There are no sails and only oars in sight. Even Lao Wang, who has been selling tea at the wharf all year round, is also very busy.

It disappeared. Occasionally, people would pass by in a hurry, not daring to stay at all. Less than half a year later, everything has changed, and the reason why it has become so depressed and deserted is for no other reason than cannibalism.

Demon King Zhu Can is here!

Zhu Can was extremely cruel and notorious, and he loved to eat human flesh, especially the meat of children and young women. In his own words, the meat of children and young women was tender. There was no meat more delicious than this. Moreover, Zhu Can

His subordinates also ate human flesh, and even captured the common people and raised them like pigs and sheep to be used as military rations. Wherever they went, there were piles of bones, the bare ground was thousands of miles away, and every room was empty.

Therefore, as soon as they heard that Zhu Can, the food demon leader, was coming, all the common people and gentry in Yiling City ran away, and the passing ships did not dare to dock at Yiling Wharf. It was simply a street tiger that cleans the streets even more than a street tiger.

In the early morning, Zhu Can's soldiers found an anonymous letter at the gate of Yiling City. This anonymous letter was nailed to the city gate with a dagger, which was very conspicuous. The military commander responsible for guarding the city gate was named Li Yu.

He knew the Chinese characters and was surprised after reading the contents of the anonymous letter, so he hurriedly reported it to Zhu Can.

Zhu Can had a big mouth, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be cracked to the base of his ears. When Li Yu showed off the anonymous letter, he was munching on a meat bone dipped in sauce. He looked a bit like a child.

The arm was creepy, but Li Yu seemed to be used to it. He flattered the anonymous letter and said, "General, I found a very interesting anonymous letter on the city gate. I don't know if it can be trusted."

Zhu Can spit out a finger bone with nails, wiped the oil on his hand with a rag, took the anonymous letter and opened it, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his sinister eyes, and he sneered: "Oh, King Gao Changqing of Qi

It’s coming, it’s very good, I’ve had county magistrates and governors, but I’ve never had the king. I have to give it a try this time.”

Li Yu thought to himself, I heard that this Qi King Gao Changqing is very powerful. He has gone through hundreds of battles without losing. He once killed a black dragon and sent a star to earth. He also discovered a Buddhist treasure in Bashu not long ago. If the legend is true, then

He is the emperor who obeys the destiny. I hope the general will not be unable to eat Gao Changqing and break his own teeth instead!

Of course, Li Yu just muttered secretly in his heart, but still said with a smile on his face: "General, there is no signature on this letter, and I don't know if it is reliable. If someone is playing a prank..."

Zhu Can glared fiercely, gritted his sharp white teeth and said ferociously: "Fuck you, whoever dares to play a prank on me, Zhu Can, I will eat his whole family!"

Li Yu shuddered intelligently and said quickly: "Yes, yes, the general is just talking nonsense. Who in the world dares to play a prank to offend the general, you are so powerful!"

Zhu Can's pig loin eyes flashed fiercely, and he sneered: "No need to guess, this anonymous letter must have been sent secretly by Li Tang's people. Li Tang signed a peace treaty with Gao Qi, and did not dare to fall out with Gao Qi, but

I also wanted to take the opportunity to drive away Gao Changqing, so I did this, and wanted to use my general's hand to kill Gao Changqing. Hey, with this little trick, how can you deceive me, Zhu Can."

Li Yu was shocked and said: "It turns out that Li Tang wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone, so we can't be fooled."

Zhu Can immediately slapped him across the face and cursed: "Stupid!"

Li Yu was slapped so hard that stars were popping out of his eyes, and even the corners of his mouth were bleeding. He still said with a flattering smile: "That's right, my subordinate is stupid and deserves a beating. Please let me know from the general."

Zhu Can gritted his teeth and said: "This bastard Gao Changqing is now eager to catch me and cut him into pieces. In this case, why should I let him go? It's better to take this opportunity to kill him. In this way, I, Zhu Can, will definitely become famous.

Wouldn’t it be great if the world were to be divided into Yiling County, and then conquer all the surrounding counties and become the king and dominate the country? Why should we be controlled by that hypocrite Xiao Mian anymore? "

Li Yu's eyes lit up, and he immediately complimented: "General Gao Ming, according to the letter, Gao Changqing will arrive in Yiling in the next few days, so his subordinates led people to blockade the river, and checked each boat to make sure to capture Gao Changqing.

"

Zhu Can's eyes flashed fiercely and said: "Not only do we need to block the river, but we also send people to patrol upstream along the river. Gao Changqing is quite cunning. He might abandon the boat and go ashore in the upper reaches. If we just wait and wait, we may not even be able to do it."

I can’t even get half of the hair out.”

I have to say that although Zhu Can is a cruel person, he is still very careful and has a very good mind.

Li Yu slapped his forehead and said, "The general is more thoughtful and decided to do it this way. Hey, if Gao Changqing dares to step into Yiling County's territory this time, he will be dead."

Zhu Can waved his hand with a gloomy face and said: "Go ahead and pass on my order. Whoever kills Gao Changqing will be promoted to the third level, with a bounty of three hundred taels, plus two beauties. If he can capture Gao Changqing alive, he will be promoted to the fourth level.

The reward is five hundred taels, plus four beauties."

Li Yu couldn't help but feel excited, and immediately went to convey Zhu Can's order. As soon as the news spread, the whole army was excited, gearing up to fight for wealth.

…………

Let's talk about Gao Bufan and others heading east along the river. A few days later, the fleet entered the Three Gorges Waterway. Perhaps attracted by the scenery on both sides of the strait, Yang Qingruo and Bai Yunshang finally stopped arguing and came to the deck to enjoy the majestic and strange scenery on both sides of the strait.

.

Gao Bufan could finally breathe a sigh of relief. In the past few days, the two women had been obsessed with each other and had to separate themselves. Apart from eating and resting, they just "sit and talk", but Gao Bufan had to be by his side to be the judge.

Our Prince of Qi became the "Master of Duan Shui". Later, the two girls found out that this judge could only talk about the wheel, so they tacitly agreed not to let him speak anymore, and just let him continue to be an audience.

After a few days, neither of the two women could convince the other, but Gao Bufan, the audience, was forced to fully understand the thoughts and ideas of Taoism and Buddhism. Perhaps this was the main purpose of the argument between the two women, and Gao Bufan only agreed with his heart.

Not announced!

The river breeze is rustling on the bow of the boat, and the mountains on both sides of the strait are lined up. Yang Qingruo has changed into women's clothes. She is dressed in green and has a long sword on her waist.

The two women came out of the dust like a bright moon. The two women were close together. The one was extremely elegant and the other was the most charming one. For a moment, it was hard to tell them apart.

"Isn't this wonderful? No arguments, no quarrels, living in harmony, no matter Taoism or Buddhism, we are all one family!" Gao Bufan thought to himself, while his eyes wandered over the two women, he felt an inexplicable sense of pride.

In the afternoon, the fleet finally passed through the mouth of Xiling Gorge, leaving behind all the mountains on both sides. The river surface and terrain in front of us suddenly became peaceful, and the whole person suddenly felt open.

Gao Bufan's spirit was shaken, and he couldn't help chanting: "The white emperor's speech is among the colorful clouds, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day. The apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains."

As soon as this poem came out, two pairs of clear and bright eyes looked over at once. The brilliant brilliance in their eyes made His Royal Highness King Qi feel a little elated. It's over. It seems that the copying guild is addicted and accidentally took advantage of Brother Li Bai.

Well, Brother Li Bai is probably not even a tadpole now. What’s his is my king’s, and what’s my king’s is still my king’s!

At this time, the pilot ship in front suddenly lowered its sails. Seeing this, Gao Bufan also ordered people to put down the sails of the ship. Soon the entire fleet lowered its sails, switched to oars, and moved towards the north bank of the Yangtze River.

.

However, at this time, a fast boat with two bows came from the downstream direction. There were many people on the boat, and they shouted sternly from a distance: "The government is inspecting, stop the boat immediately, otherwise you will be killed."

The person leading the boat was Zhong Laoliu. His expression changed slightly when he saw this, and he suddenly became a little panicked. Although Zhong Laoliu had rich experience in sailing, he was from a commoner background and had never fought in a war. It was inevitable that he would become nervous at this time.

Miao Yu was calm and said in a low voice: "Don't be nervous, Old Six, let everyone stop the boat and wait until the other party gets close before taking action."

Zhong Laoliu quickly said hello and asked the sailors to stop rowing. Soon, the two bow speedboats downstream approached. On board were Zhu Can's patrol sentries. There were five people on each bow boat, two of them were archers, bending their bows.

Nocking an arrow makes you ready to shoot at any time.

"Hey, where did you get down from and why did you drop the sail?" a captain on the boat asked sharply.

Miao Yu winked at Zhong Laoliu, and the latter replied tremblingly: "We are a cargo ship coming from Shu County, and the ship is carrying grain and Shu brocade..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I want to ask you why you dropped the sail?" Shi Chang asked warily.

Zhong Laoliu said sarcastically: "We heard about cannibalism... No, we heard that General Zhu was in Yiling downstream, and the passing ships were too afraid to pass by, so... So we planned to dock nearby and take the overland route, bypassing

Pass Yiling City."

The enemy soldiers on the boat couldn't help but laugh, and the commander even said disdainfully: "Yes, our general does eat people, and he is not afraid of others saying it. You old boy can say whatever you want, it doesn't matter, but you can't escape if you want to, let's go, follow

We will go to Yiling Pier for inspection. If there are no problems, we can pay some tax and leave."

Zhong Laoliu said in horror: "Won't you eat us?"

"It'll be fine if you cooperate honestly. If you dare to play tricks, it's hard to say. Hehe, I just ate a bowl of brains this morning. I don't mind eating a few more bowls." Shi Chang licked his lips and said with a smile.

Miao Yu couldn't help but feel sick. If it wasn't for the distance, she would have cut off the other person's head with a single knife.

"Let's go downstream!" Shi Chang raised the sword in his hand and threatened.

Miao Yu couldn't help but feel anxious secretly, because the other party was quite vigilant and kept talking from a distance without coming closer. The archers on the opposite boat also kept bending their bows and preparing arrows.

Just when Miao Yu and Zhong Laoliu were undecided, there was a sudden crash in the big ship behind them, and several sharp arrows shot out in succession, killing four archers on the enemy ship on the spot.

An arrow seals the throat, cleanly and unstoppably powerful.

There is no doubt that it was Gao Bufan who shot the arrow. When he fired the arrow, Gao Dahe and other soldiers followed suit. After a whooshing sound, all the remaining enemy soldiers were killed, and the surrounding river surface was covered with blood.

dyed red.

"Amitabha, sin, sin, sin." Bai Yunshang couldn't help but clasped her palms together.

Yang Qingruo sneered and said: "On the battlefield, you will fight to the death. Being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself. Put away your Buddhist tricks."

Bai Yunshang did not answer, but lowered his head and silently recited the Ksitigarbha Sutra to transcend the souls of the dead.

Gao Bufan gestured to Zhong Laoliu and Miao Yu on the boat in front, indicating that they should continue to dock, so the fleet quickly sailed towards the north bank, while the enemy ships with no owners on both bows drifted downstream with the current.
