Chapter 014 Robbery
The passenger ship went down the water, and the undercurrents of the river kept slapping on the hull, as if it was about to overturn the passenger ship on the river, which made people feel cold and very scared when they saw it.
"Young... Master, do you think this boat will really roll over?" Chunmei was so scared that her face turned pale. She grabbed Liu Muqing next to her tightly, and her green little hands became a little pale because of excessive force.
Liu Muqing was actually very afraid. Qinglong Gorge was much more dangerous than he had imagined at the time. If he had not been in it, he would be far from being able to appreciate the danger. However, as a man and in front of the woman he liked, he still had to be stronger.
"There is nothing to be afraid of. The boss of this boat is a veteran at first sight. He should be able to pass through Qinglong Gorge easily. Don't worry!" After patting Chunmei for a while, Liu Muqing looked at Gou Sheng again and asked with a smile.
"Dog Yuan, isn't your seasickness cured yet?"
The little Gou Zuo's face was as white as paper, and his whole body was lying in the cabin like a pool of mud. His small eyes were tightly closed at this moment, as if he was afraid of seeing something. His thin little hands tightly grasped the fence beside him, as if he was afraid that he would fall down.
Hearing Liu Muqing's question, Gou Sheng finally opened his eyes and looked around with some fear, then he showed a smile that was even worse than crying and said, "Young... Master, I... I... I... I'm fine... vomit..."
Liu Muqing couldn't help but shake her head, and she felt speechless.
The speed of the boat was gradually accelerating, and the passenger ship kept avoiding some undercurrent vortexes like a flexible swimming fish, and then quickly approached the canyon. The "people" canyon was getting closer and closer to everyone at this moment, and a cool breath suddenly came to the face.
Liu Muqing opened the door of the cabin curiously and stretched his head out to look out. He looked up and saw two huge peaks appearing in front of him, but at this moment they were tightly close together, leaving only a gap, as if a giant squeezed the two mountains together, which was very spectacular.
The thick water vapor came to his face, and Liu Muqing couldn't help but take a deep breath subconsciously and sighed: "This place is indeed extraordinary. Even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is much stronger than other places. If you can practice here for a long time, it will definitely be of great benefit. It seems that the rumors in the world are not true. It is very likely that there will be Shuijun here!"
"Hehe, everyone, old man, I want to ask everyone for help. I wonder if there is anyone who can help the old man?" At this moment, the boss's voice suddenly came from outside the ship. The voice was rough and powerful, and it didn't seem like he was old and weak.
The boss's words immediately made everyone in the cabin feel inexplicable. After all, they are still in a crisis moment. Such undercurrents in the river road are likely to cause everyone to be buried under the water because of a difference in thought.
Suddenly, someone was not very patient and shouted, "Oh, old man, don't whine here, hurry up and send me out of Qinglong Gorge, and ferry your boat well. If you hurt me, you won't be able to afford it even if you sell you!"
As soon as this person's voice came out, several people agreed immediately. It seemed that they were people with him. Liu Muqing frowned slightly, and a premonition of not being very good suddenly filled his heart, which made him feel a little anxious.
"Are you saying that these boatmen are not kind people? No, I was robbed when I went out for the first time. I wouldn't be so sad!" Liu Muqing wailed in his heart.
"Hahahaha, this guy is right. All the guests are precious. If you are hurt by me, a vulgar person, then I will die. Since that's the case, it's better to invite this guy to talk to Shuijun here. I think she will definitely like a talent like you!" The boss of the boat immediately rang.
"You...ah! You..."
"thump!"
Several screams of surprise and panic sounded, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling into the water. Everyone's hearts became nervous in an instant.
"Hahahaha, is there anyone else who wants to be with this guy?" The boat speed gradually slowed down. The boss of the boat, who looked proud, appeared slowly in front of everyone in a simple dress, and the dark gorge made him look even more gloomy and terrifying.
The boss of the ship glanced at everyone and suddenly showed a grim smile, saying, "Everyone, I am a person who seeks money but not life. If you can give up the wealth on your body, then I can guarantee that your life will never be a problem. But if someone is not ruthless, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The boss's voice gradually became vicious, and at the same time, some of the passengers were mixed with the passengers and the boss's accomplices came out with weapons one by one. Their eyes were no longer good, but fierce, and his identity also changed from small merchants to extremely vicious pirates.
These pirates came to the ship boss, whispered a few words to the ship boss with excitement and then retreated. On the other hand, the ship boss became very excited at this moment. After he looked around the crowd with a knife for a few times, he suddenly pointed at Liu Muqing and said, "Mr. Liu, I didn't expect you to have such a value. Since that's the case, let's start with you. Please hand over the property on your body. Don't worry, as long as you give the money, I can guarantee that you will never touch you at all!"
Liu Muqing couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. This was really a disaster. He thought that escaping Mei Ancient City would save him from a disaster, but unexpectedly, it fell on him again. His value was obviously controlled by the other party. Even if he wanted to be clever, it was impossible. He really couldn't escape even if he wanted to escape.
Liu Muqing looked at Chunmei and Gou Sheng hiding in the cabin, shook their head helplessly, then took a breath and said to the boss of the ship: "As long as we can ensure the safety of the three of us, these silver notes will all belong to you, otherwise they will only be a pile of rotten paper!"
Liu Muqing took out a silver note from his arms and approached the boat. It should be as high as ten thousand taels. Now, just need to let go of his hand slightly, and these silver notes will fall into the water and become worthless.
The boss of the ship looked at it, his face changed slightly, and a cruel aura flashed by. He stared at Liu Muqing and suddenly laughed, clapped his hands and said, "Very good, no problem, hand me the silver bill!"
Liu Muqing sighed in his heart. It was embarrassing to think that he was a cultivator who was actually robbed by a martial arts man. But who could not tell him that he could not have a spell? If he knew a spell, even the simplest spell would not be so passive today.
When the boss saw Liu Muqing not moving, his face turned cold and said with a grim voice: "Don't you believe me, do you think I can't protect you safely?"
Liu Muqing felt a moment in his heart. He could clearly feel the murderous intent in the tone of the ship's boss. He shook his head quickly, hoping to stabilize the other party. However, at this moment, he suddenly saw the ship's boss's expression change, as if he saw some unbelievable existence, his whole body was shaking like a sieve, and his cold sweat kept falling.
The other pirates were frightened when they saw the boss of the ship. They looked uneasy, as if they felt something strange was about to penetrate into their bodies, making them restless. They didn't even care much about Liu Muqing's ten thousand taels of silver notes.
After a few moments, the boat boss slowly recovered. He looked at Liu Muqing with complicated eyes, then turned his head and said to the people around him, "Take him into the river!"
When the other pirates heard this, their eyes became very complicated. They didn't know whether they were envious, jealous, or a little afraid. However, the eyes of these people looking at Liu Muqing were filled with a feeling of looking at the dead.
Liu Muqing felt a throbbing in his heart, and suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis covering his body, making his hair stand upright. He looked at the two big men who were gradually walking towards him, his pupils gradually shrank and his heart became more violently beating.
"Wait... Wait, you... these silver notes... tens of thousands of taels of silver notes are given to you, how about?" Liu Muqing stared at the people opposite him, watching the other party's expression change, and he stuffed the silver notes in his hand to the other party without hesitation, hoping that these things could attract the other party's attention.
But what disappointed him was that although these people looked at the silver notes with eager eyes, they still did not violate the orders of the ship boss, just like the sentence just now was an imperial edict, which made them have to carry out the final execution even if they sacrificed their lives.
"I...slot, what's going on? Do I have to die before I succeed? I don't want it! I'll let it go!"
Liu Muqing was suddenly a little panicked. He hurriedly thought of countermeasures and kept struggling not to let the other party catch him. However, no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless in the end. The two big men who came grabbed him hard like pliers with their hands, so that he could not resist at all, and could not even move for a moment.
"Young Master...Young Master, why are you arresting my young master? You bad guys, let go of our young master quickly!" Chunmei ran out of the cabin at some point. Although she was still afraid of death, her little face turned pale, she still rushed out, grabbed the hands of the two big men, and bit them open her mouth.
"Little nymph, looking for death!"
"Bang"
The big man who was bitten did not treat Chunmei as well as Liu Muqing. When he was bitten by the back of his hand, he was immediately angry and slapped Chunmei in the face, and he was about to slash him with a knife as soon as he reached out.
"stop!"
"You dare!"
At this moment, two sounds sounded at the same time, and then a yellow light flashed through the air. A crisp sound of "clang" was heard. The long knife in the pirate's hand was knocked down and fell to the ground with a "clang".
Everyone looked up and saw a peerless young man in white clothes standing at the bow of the boat, his little face slightly red, his eyes slightly angry, and his white neck even made people feel the urge to find out.
