Liu Yuanhe and Hu Qingfeng went down to the wooden corridor and walked a few steps and turned a corner, only to hear a "click" sound. A musket was pointed at the two of them and a voice shouted: "Stop, who are you?"
It turned out that there was a guard from the Perak camp at the end of the wooden corridor. When he saw someone approaching, he immediately sounded a warning.
Liu Yuanhe responded: "It's me and Master Hu."
The disciple also saw the person clearly at this time and said: "It turns out to be Elder Liu." He lowered his musket. Liu Yuanhe is the elder of the "Arhat Sect" and a disciple of Pili Camp. He naturally knows and knows that he is an important figure in the fleet.
Liu Yuanhe walked closer and said: "Have you been guarding here?" [
The disciple said: "Yes"
Liu Yuanhe said: "Did you see someone coming in just now?"
The disciple said: "Except for Elder Liu and this gentleman, I didn't see anyone else."
Liu Yuanhe looked around and found a small door next to the wooden corridor, but it was closed tightly. He asked: "What is inside that door? I want to go in and take a look."
The disciple said: "That's the warehouse of our ship. The young master has ordered that outsiders are not allowed to enter."
Liu Yuanhe said "Oh" and frowned slightly.
Hu Qingfeng said: "Elder Liu and Young Master Hua are the ones in charge. We all have to act according to his orders. Since he won't allow outsiders to enter, Elder Liu should leave quickly."
Liu Yuanhe raised his eyebrows and said: "We came here to follow the spies. Why did we leave? Hua Bushi didn't allow outsiders to come in. I, the elder, am not an outsider, so I wanted to go in and have a look."
He looked at the terrain here and thought that since this wooden corridor was guarded, anyone who sneaked in would be discovered immediately. It was estimated that the "spy" had probably not entered here, so he did not intend to enter the wooden door, but he heard Hu Qingfeng's words, "Everyone must act on his orders," were very harsh. The arrogance that he had suffered earlier surged up in his mind, and he thought that if he didn't go in and have a look, he seemed to be afraid of the evil dog master. His attitude suddenly became tough and he walked up. I have to break through that door
The disciple stopped him with his spear and said: "No, the master said that no one who is not a member of the sect is allowed to enter."
Hu Qingfeng also advised: "Elder Liu, it's better not to go. Maybe Hu was dazzled just now and saw wrongly. There is no such thing as a spy. Let's forget it. Don't offend Master Hua."
At this time, Liu Yuanhe had already made up his mind. He would not listen to other people's advice and shouted: "Get out of the way. We are going in to search for spies. If anything happens, please ask Hua Bushi to come to me. I, the elder, will bear all the responsibility."
He stretched out his huge palm and pulled the Pili camp disciple to the side. Then he stretched out his hand and opened the wooden door and said to Hu Qingfeng: "Go and get the lamp hanging on the wall, and let's go in together."
It was pitch dark inside the wooden door. After Liu Yuanhe stepped in, he stopped and waited for Hu Qingfeng to bring a light.
Hu Qingfeng quickly walked in with an angry wind lantern but could not see the shadow of the Pili camp disciple. Liu Yuanhe asked: "Where is the guard?"
Hu Qingfeng said: "I clicked on his acupuncture points to prevent him from yelling and hindering us."
Liu Yuanhe said: "It's better if we check if there is any strange phenomenon in the bottom cabin and then unblock his acupuncture points when we get out."
The captain of this ship is more than seven feet. The bottom cabin is not small, and the steerage cabin is not divided. The wooden door is the entrance. With the light, you can immediately see the situation inside the cabin. However, it is filled with layers of circular vessels the size of wine jars. There are hundreds of clay pots
Liu Yuanhe knew that these pottery pots were exactly the "medicine" used by Hua Bushi to fend off the underworld warships in the past few days. These pots were filled with black oil, and there were fuses left on the mouths of the pots. If you "shoot" it, you can set enemy ships on fire [
Liu Yuanhe had already seen the power of this thing. He didn't know where Hua Bushi hid these things. Only now did he know that they were stored in the bottom of his own boat.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard a noise from behind a pile of clay pots not far ahead.
Liu Yuanhe shouted: "Who is it?" He spread out his body and jumped over. Hu Qingfeng did not lag behind and followed closely with a wind lantern in hand.
Liu Yuanhe quickly walked around the pile of pottery pots in three or two steps, only to see that there was nothing behind him except a piece of locust stone falling on the ground.
The locust stone is one of the most common hidden weapons. People in the rivers and lakes often use it to "throw stones to ask for directions." This locust stone was obviously thrown by someone to make a noise to attract attention.
Just when Liu Yuanhe was slightly startled, he suddenly felt a pain on his back. He had been stabbed by a sneak attack, and then someone hooked his feet. With a "pop" sound, he fell face down and fell like a dog chewing mud.
Liu Yuanhe was born in Shaolin. Although his martial arts skills are not as good as those of Shang Changsheng, he is determined not to be weak. He would not be so easily plotted by others, and even if he was attacked, he would not be in such a mess. He knew that Hu Qingfeng was following him, even if an enemy appeared. He was also able to protect himself because he was completely alert to the rear. After being stabbed, his whole body was numb and his internal strength was so weak that he was swept to the ground with a kick.
This is a sign of severe poisoning in the body
Liu Yuanhe fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while. He turned around and saw the only other person, Hu Qingfeng, who was standing there holding an angry wind lamp in one hand. The dim light shone on a skinny face with a strange smile, and the other one was standing there. In his hand, he held a three-inch long blue dagger.
The person who sneak-attacked Liu Yuanhe was Hu Qingfeng
Of course, that locust stone was cast by Hu Qingfeng. Liu Yuanhe ran to the bottom of the cabin to search for the spy, but he didn't expect that the spy was actually beside him the whole time. It was the owner of the "Brown Clothes Sect".
"You...you...why..." Liu Yuanhe was shocked and angry. The poison spread in his body and his tongue became enlarged.
Hu Qingfeng said: "Elder Liu can't get close to the cabin where the oil tanks are stored without the help of you, Hu. This is also a last resort."
Liu Yuanhe was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he was so angry that he couldn't utter a single word.
Hu Qingfeng said again: "Hu didn't want to kill you. You only blame yourself for your bad fate. Don't blame me." As he said this, he stepped forward, stretched out his dagger and stabbed Liu Yuanhe in the throat.
It was over now. Liu Yuanhe closed his eyes tightly, just waiting for the cold sharp blade to pierce his throat, but this life was saved. However, he only heard a crisp "ding" sound. This knife could not stab him.
He opened his eyes and saw Hu Qingfeng's face full of surprise. He turned his head and looked around and shouted: "Who is hiding somewhere, come out quickly?"
Liu Yuanhe also felt strange in his heart that someone had obviously blocked Hu Qingfeng's dagger strike just now, but Hu Qingfeng could not see the other party, so he shouted in fear. He tried his best to turn his face and looked around, and saw that there were people in the bilge. others
Hu Qingfeng shouted several times in succession, but no one answered, and someone even showed up. He gritted his teeth and swung the dagger at Liu Yuanhe's neck, but there was another "ding" sound and the dagger was blocked again.
This time, Liu Yuanhe did not close his eyes, but he only saw a ray of green light flying to block Hu Qingfeng's blow. With his eyesight, he could see that it was a sword light, and the opponent's movement was extremely fast, and he jumped away after he drew the sword. The art of collecting breath is very clever. In this dark cabin with pottery pots piled everywhere, I don’t know where I lurk, as if I am invisible.
This is definitely not the martial arts of a famous sect, but some kind of partial swordsmanship.
Hu Qingfeng's expression became even more frightened, and he suddenly jumped out to a relatively open place and shouted: "What's the point of hiding your head and tail when you come out? If you don't come out again, I will burn this place down." [
As he shouted, he suddenly waved his hand and threw the angry lamp towards a lot of clay pots. These pottery pots were filled with flammable black oil and would definitely burn if it caught fire. Hu Qingfeng was not a threat. Are you really going to set fire to it?
However, before the oil lamp touched the clay pot, it suddenly stopped in mid-air and was caught by someone's hand.
Under the light was a young man with messy hair wearing a khaki short shirt. Liu Yuanhe recognized that this person was Li Hu, one of Hua Bushi's "Five Evil Dogs"
The enemy finally appeared. Hu Qingfeng roared and stepped forward with a dagger in his hand. Li Hu saw the opponent pounce but calmly flicked his wrist and blew out the oil lamp.
At this time, night has fallen, and this cabin is located at the bottom of the ship. Except for a small wooden door on the outside, there is no other door. The previous cabin was only illuminated by the immortal wind lamp. When the lamp was extinguished, the surrounding area was suddenly plunged into darkness.
In the darkness, I could only hear the sound of wind driven by clothes and a few "ding-ding" sounds. It was obvious that Hu Qingfeng and Li Hu had already made a move.
Liu Yuanhe was lying on the ground and couldn't see anything except a few sparks that occasionally burst out from the collision of their weapons. The light of those sparks was too weak to identify the specific situation of the two people's fight. Suddenly, he felt that his face Being drenched by a few bits of liquid, they were wet and full of fishy smell, and there was actually blood splashing out. It was obvious that one of the two was injured.
The fight only lasted for a few breaths before it ended. There was only a muffled sound of "bang" and a person fell heavily to the ground. Then a flash of fire quickly illuminated the cabin, but the angry wind lamp was lit again.
It was Li Hu who was holding the oil lamp. His broad sword had already been inserted back into his belt. Hu Qingfeng fell on his back and fell at his feet. There was blood on his shoulders, arms, waist and legs. His chest was rising and falling. He was not dead yet, but he was already struggling. It was because the "acupoint" was tapped
Although the "Brown Clothes Sect" is not considered a sect, Hu Qingfeng, as the leader of the sect, has strong martial arts skills. Even Liu Yuanhe himself is sure that he can control this person within a few breaths. Li Huxian used strange sword skills to defeat his opponent. In a panic, he hurriedly set fire to the boat and then caught and blew out the oil lamp, making the surroundings plunge into darkness. It was obviously more suitable for Li Hu to fight in secret in an environment where his eyes could not see anything, rather than the two directors, Hu Qingfeng, who was born in Baidao. Only the fighting can determine the winner so quickly
Liu Yuanhe saw all this happening, but he couldn't help but be deeply impressed by the young man's meticulous scheming and strange martial arts.
Li Hu walked a few steps in front of Liu Yuanhe and bent down to give him a look and said carelessly: "You are an annoying old guy. I didn't want to save you, but I'll do it because you lured the traitor." Let you live”
