Qiu Hengbo had obviously gained his true energy at this time, and Hua Bushi had already known about his martial arts, so there was no need to hide it. Could it be that the reason why he did this was because he was planning to kill someone?
Hua Bushi's thoughts were racing, and he immediately felt a faint murderous aura in the surrounding air, and his expression suddenly changed. Although this young master did not know martial arts, his senses had always been very sharp. At this time, he
It has been determined that the Dongchang master in front of him must have murderous intentions in his heart!
Cao Muyun had already seen the change in Hua Bushi's expression and said with a smile: "Brother Hua, don't be afraid. Qiu Hengbo just arrived on the island yesterday. I made an appointment tonight. I just want Brother Hua to watch a good show.
I have no intention of harming my brother."
Hua Bushi was silent for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I see. I don't have any martial arts skills in my lower body. If you want to kill me, you really don't need a master like Mr. Qiu to take action."
Even if he didn't want to kill Hua Bushi, then who was Qiu Hengbo's target?
The three people were located in the center of the wooden bridge at the pier. One end of the wooden bridge led to the shore, and the other end led to the dock. Looking from the bridge, you could see the huge dragon-killing ship moored in the dock.
body.
Cao Muyun looked at the giant ship and said with emotion: "Such a giant ship has never been built in the Ming Dynasty for more than a hundred years since the imperial coastal defense armaments were decommissioned after the Jiajing period. Today, it is on Okura Island.
It’s really rare to be able to create one.”
Hua Bushi said: "The treasure ship we saw on Wanyi Island that day was actually no smaller than this dragon-slaying ship. It can be seen that our shipbuilding skills in the Ming Dynasty were very advanced a hundred years ago, but it is a pity that it has declined now.
Read the full text of The Guard."
Cao Muyun sighed and said: "Today's emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not ignorant of the importance of the sea. It's just that the world has been in chaos in recent years, foreign enemies and bandits have been too serious, and the imperial court's military and financial resources have been exhausted, so that it is unable to take care of it, otherwise it will
How could we let the Japanese pirates run rampant along the coast, and the pirates from the 'Black Dragon Palace' have been running rampant in the South China Sea for so many years?"
He suddenly changed the subject and said: "Brother Hua, do you think this dragon-slaying ship can defeat the giant shark ship of the Black Dragon Palace?"
Hua Bushi said: "The hull of the Zhanlong Ship is larger than the Giant Shark Ship, and its steel keel is stronger than the Giant Shark Ship. It is also equipped with the most advanced ship cannons in the Western countries today, and its firepower will be even better. There is no way it cannot be stronger."
The principle of crossing a giant shark ship."
Cao Muyun said: "I don't think so. No matter how strong the ship is, if it doesn't have a good captain to command it, it will be vulnerable. And even if there is a good captain, if the identity of this person is unknown,
, it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, this battle with the 'Black Dragon Palace' is of great importance, and we still dare not give this ship to him to control."
On Okura Island, the person who is best at sailing and naval combat is undoubtedly Peng San.
Hua Bushi suddenly said: "So it turns out that the person Brother Cao wants to deal with tonight is Mr. Peng?"
When Cao Muyun and Hua Bushi planned to attack Heilong Island, they proposed to use strong methods to force out Peng San's origins. However, the young master opposed it with all his strength, fearing that it would backfire and ruin the event, so the matter was delayed.
Later, Hua Bushi sent a message to Chu Yiyi, asking her to try to find out the origin of Peng San. However, several months passed, and Chu Yiyi still did not reply.
In the past few months, Cao Muyun must have been working on this matter, but even the "Qianhuafang" with his eyes all over the Ming Dynasty could not find out the information, and it must be even more difficult for the government and the Jinyi Guards to obtain the information.
Cao Muyun said: "Now that the Dragon-Slaying Ship has been built, a large-scale attack on Black Dragon Island is imminent. If we want to use this person to direct the war, we must find out his origins!"
Hua Bushi said: "I'm afraid what Brother Cao is doing is still inappropriate. If Mr. Peng is unwilling to tell the story, even if we use force, we may not be able to gain anything."
However, Cao Muyun curved his lips, revealed a faint smile, and said: "This person's origin is unknown, so we can't trust him to use him. Even though he has extraordinary naval warfare skills, he can't be used by me, so what's his value?
Remove it as soon as possible.”
This Mr. Mu Yun has a handsome appearance, gentle manners and a scholarly style. At a glance, you will feel that he must be a good man with a kind heart. But as the saying goes, a person cannot be judged by his appearance. If he is scheming, he will kill
Decisive, I'm afraid not many people in the world can match him.
Hua Bushi immediately understood the reason for Qiu Hengbo's murderous intention. It must have been explained to him by Cao Muyun. If he couldn't find out Peng San's origin tonight, he would kill him to avoid future troubles.
Hua Bushi frowned and wanted to object, but did not speak for a moment. From the tone of the conversation just now, Hua Bushi knew that Cao Muyun had made up his mind, and even if he objected, it would probably be useless.
Hua Bushi had no chance to persuade Cao Muyun, because at this time, the young master had already seen a gray figure walking along the stone path along the coast towards the wooden bridge of the pier. It looked like the same figure
Peng San.
This Mr. Peng was still wearing the old gray shirt, wide-crotch trousers, and shoes. He was dressed in country bumpkin attire and had an ugly appearance, which made him look even more filthy.
He saw the three people standing on the wooden bridge, stepped up the bridge and came closer, bowed and saluted: "I've seen Mr. Cao, I've seen Master Hua! I don't know that Master Hua sent someone to call Peng San to the dock, but...
What are your orders?"
Hua Bushi was a little stunned when he heard this. He didn't send anyone to call Peng San tonight. In fact, he himself was invited by Cao Muyun. However, as soon as he changed his mind, he immediately figured out the reason and even understood Cao Mu's understanding.
Why did Yun invite him here?
Cao Muyun and Peng San were not familiar with each other. If he was invited to come rashly, it would be very abrupt, which would definitely arouse Peng San's wariness. However, Hua Bushi could be regarded as half of Peng San's master, and calling him in his name would definitely make him wary.
, Peng San had to come. When Peng San came to the pier, it was precisely because he saw Hua Bushi standing on the wooden bridge that he walked over without any precautions. Before he realized it, the young master
It has temporarily served as a bait to lure Peng San into the world.
It seems that Cao Muyun put a lot of thought into planning tonight's situation!
Just when Peng San came closer, Qiu Hengbo, who was originally standing behind Cao Muyun, suddenly moved his steps and went around to the other side in an instant, cutting off Peng San's retreat. At this moment, Peng San stood on a three-foot-wide path.
In the center of the wooden bridge, Cao Muyun is in the front and Qiu Hengbo is behind him. Under the double-team of the two masters, no matter how strong his martial arts is, it will be extremely disadvantageous for him to fight.
Although there was Hua Bushi in front of him who did not know martial arts, it was of no use at this time.
Seeing this situation, Peng San seemed to be shocked, and his face began to turn pale, but now it was too late for him to retreat even if he wanted to.
Hua Bushi smiled bitterly and said: "I am not inviting Third Master Peng to come here tonight, but Young Master Cao. I think I have something to ask Third Master."
Peng Sandao: "I wonder if Mr. Cao has anything to ask me?"
Although he still had the usual low tone when he said this, his eyes were moving around, obviously trying to find a gap to escape.
Cao Muyun said: "Nothing else, I just want to ask Mr. Peng where he was born. Where did he learn this skill of being tall and strong?"
Now, Cao Muyun also got straight to the point and asked questions bluntly. When he asked, his sharp eyes were fixed on Peng San's ugly face.
But Peng San looked as if he was stunned, patted his chest and said: "It turns out that Mr. Cao didn't sleep at night and called Peng San to the dock because he wanted to inquire about my identity. Hey, if you want to know, just
You should have told me earlier, why are you so nervous? I can just tell you everything!"
Cao Muyun said: "Oh? Then please let Master Peng tell me."
Peng San said: "To be honest, Mr. Cao, my ancestral home is on the coast of Liaodong. My family is a fisherman. Fishing and catching shrimps is my main profession. Later, I followed a master who traveled around the world to do tricks. Peng San learned all his good skills from his master.
I learned it there. My master's name is Wan Tiancheng Wanba, who is known as the 'Eight Hands' in the world. Speaking of the 'Wanji Juggling Class', everyone in my hometown in Liaodong knows about it."
"After I left school, I came to the south to work as an entertainer. I wanted to make some money so I could marry a wife. But I didn't know that I caught a cold just after arriving in Guangdong and fell ill in an inn in Nan'ao. It was all thanks to Chai Dashan.
Ask a doctor to save you. Later, Peng San had no place to go, so he simply went to Chai Yuan to do some odd jobs. The Chai family master knows all these things, and he can prove it for me."
The expression on Peng San's face was serious, but what he said was all nonsense. Not even a ghost would believe it. And even if the so-called Wan Baye really existed, he could only tell the story from the "eight hands"
Given his nickname, you know he's not an expert, he's probably a juggler.
Cao Muyun stared into Peng San's eyes and said, "Master Peng San is very skilled in martial arts, but I don't know where he learned it from?"
Peng Sandao: "I only know a few tricks in the martial arts world, but I have never learned any martial arts. Mr. Cao misunderstood me! My abilities include breathing fire dragons, hiding flowers at the bottom of cups, and changing people's hearts.
The best one, if Mr. Cao doesn't believe it, I can change it for you and keep it for you to enjoy!"
Peng San opened his eyes and told lies, getting further and further away. Cao Muyun heard this, but he was not angry at all. He had already anticipated this situation and had already thought of countermeasures.
He smiled coldly and said: "What a big change in people's hearts! I have a friend who has also learned some magic skills. Today I want to ask Mr. Peng for some tips. Please give me some advice!"
He turned his eyes to Qiu Hengbo and asked, "How many moves does Mr. Qiu need?"
The exposed half of Qiu Hengbo's face showed no expression, and he said: "With ten moves, I can change his heart."
Although Hua Bushi has met this Dongchang master twice, this is the first time he has heard him speak. Although his voice has a hint of chill, it is soft and sweet. If you only listen to the voice, you will definitely think that he is speaking.
