Chapter 279 - Ying Zhou
Peach Blossom Island.
East courtyard.
Half the moon, Qin Graceful arrived.
With the wooden sculpture fished out of the sea.
In the east courtyard, Dong Li took the wooden carving from Liyue's hand and looked at it carefully, his expression slightly condensed.
"Elder Dongli."
Ban Yue opened her mouth and asked anxiously, "How's it going? Is there any agency?"
"have."
Dong Li nodded, took out a dagger, and along the lines on the wood carving, scraped off the moon stone powder on it little by little.
Then, the dagger rotated along the veins, cutting a hidden crack every three inches.
The entire wood carving is interlocking and natural, showing its unique skills and magic.
Li Ziye's extraordinary skills were learned from Dongli. In just ten days, he was not inferior to others' achievements in one year.
A photographic memory and an astonishing understanding are advantages that are not common.
Li Ziye only has poor martial arts talent, but other than that, he is definitely a genius.
A genius who is not good at martial arts, but dreams of being a swordsman all day long.
However, Li Ziye didn't care about this.
He just wants to become a swordsman and no one can stop him!
If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?
What if, the dream comes true!
The two of them stared at each other. In the courtyard, Dongli broke open the mechanism on the wooden sculpture bit by bit, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
This guy is awesome!
Another person might not be able to unlock the mechanism in this wood carving.
"Click!"
Not long after, there was only a crisp sound, and in Dongli's hand, the wooden sculpture cracked and split into two.
Half Moon, Qin Grace's eyes immediately narrowed when she saw this.
I saw four characters carved crookedly inside the wood carving, which were barely legible.
Qin Weanna recognized it at a glance as the handwriting of her idiot disciple.
"Yagyu, Yingzhou!"
Ban Yue also recognized the handwriting on the wood carving, and her expression changed.
Not good!
"Xiao Ziye, was taken to Yingzhou."
Soon, Ban Bianyue came back to his senses and said in a deep voice.
"Yingzhou?"
On the side, Dongli read the words on the wood carving and asked in confusion, "Isn't that Liu Sheng a big pirate as famous as Liyue? After capturing that little guy, even if he didn't ask the Li family for money, he should ask you for it.
Just a favor, why go to Yingzhou?"
"The only explanation is that Yagyu is from Yingzhou!"
Banyue's expression darkened and she said, "The origin of this Yagyu is mysterious, and no one knows the details. I can't stand the way he does things, so I rarely deal with him. Now that I think about it, there is indeed something wrong with this Yagyu."
Having said this, Banyue clenched her hands tightly, with anger on her face, and said, "Since this Yagyu appeared in the East China Sea, his behavior has been extremely vicious. The merchant ships he robbed have never survived. Before, I thought he was
This man's nature is like this. Now that I think about it, it may be related to his identity. If he is from Yingzhou, everything can be explained. If he is not of my race, his mentality must be different."
"These ambitious people are indeed evil-minded!"
Qin Wanna's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and she said, "It seems that the lessons learned a hundred years ago are not enough. Now, they want to take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. They may have guessed Li Ziye's identity and want to use the opportunity to plot something."
The financial strength of the Li family made even the Shang royal family jealous, not to mention those greedy Yingzhou people.
"I will immediately gather people and go to Yingzhou to rescue people!" Ban Bianyue said with a heavy expression.
"No need."
Qin Grace said coldly, "A large number of people is not necessarily a good thing. If you alert the enemy, it may cause alarm in Yingzhou. You first send someone to send this news to Liyuan, the capital of the great merchant city, and I will do the rest."
"
"I'll go with you."
Ban Bianyue said seriously, "Although Sword Immortal is strong, the road to Yingzhou is far away, and there will always be things that are difficult for manpower to handle. I will go with Sword Immortal. With one more person, I may be able to be more sure."
"That's fine."
Qin Weanna thought for a moment and nodded.
Half a day later, outside Peach Blossom Island, two ships set sail, one heading west and one heading east, leaving respectively.
The westward ship, holding the letter, traveled day and night to the great merchant capital.
The ship heading east, sails raised, sails to Yingzhou day and night.
In order to save Li Ziye, the human swordsman went to Yingzhou in person, and the storm was about to begin.
Ten days later.
Great commercial capital.
Li Yuan.
Li Youwei received the letter sent from Taohua Island. Although she was shocked, she felt a little relieved after mentioning it.
My little brother is still alive!
Half an hour later, the letter was copied into three copies, one was sent to Confucianism, one to Yanyu Tower, and one to Yuzhou City.
Horses are racing, flying pigeons are passing messages, and the efficiency is extremely fast. The huge intelligence network that the Li family has been running for ten years shows amazing capabilities.
Among them, two letters passed through Confucianism Gate and Yanyu Tower, and then were sent to the East China Sea again.
Another seven days later.
On the coast of the East China Sea, two letters arrived.
"Merchant, does this ship go to Yingzhou?"
At the dock, Bai Wangyu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said calmly.
"Yingzhou?"
In front of the merchant ship, when the middle-aged man heard these two words, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, no!"
"I can pay you money." Bai Wangyu said patiently.
“I won’t take any amount of money!”
The middle-aged man was unmoved and refused, "Look for someone else!"
"Merchant."
Bai Wangyu was a little anxious and said, "If you think about it again, I can pay double the price."
"I won't go even if it's ten times worse, so hurry up and leave!"
The middle-aged man looked impatient and waved.
"In this world, there are some people and some things, and reasoning is useless."
At this moment, behind the two of them, a cold voice sounded, bone-chilling.
But under the morning sun, two figures were walking towards each other, one behind the other. Their steps were neither urgent nor slow, but they gave everyone present an unspeakable pressure.
In front, a young man wearing a silver-gray cloak, carrying an azure sword box on his back, his eyes were cold and chilling.
The second son of the Li family, Li Qingzhi, the owner of Yanyu Tower, rushed there as soon as possible after receiving Li Yuan's letter.
And next to Li Qingzhi.
He was a young man in black and red clothes, holding a red umbrella in his hand. His face was very handsome, but a little sickly pale. He seemed to be a little weaker than the woman.
One of the two deputy owners of Huafengdu and Yanyu Tower, in order to earn some gold and silver for medical treatment, went out with Li Qingzhi to find someone.
"Second Young Master Li."
Bai Wangyu was shocked when he saw the person coming. Brother Li's second brother was actually here too.
“If it’s useless to reason, there’s no need to talk anymore.”
Li Qingzhi walked by, stuffed a stack of banknotes into the middle-aged man's hands, and immediately stepped onto the boat.
Behind them, Hua Fengdu held a knife. The blood-red knife came out of its sheath with a sound, and for a moment, the cold light shone brightly in his eyes.
Afterwards, Yan Dao was sheathed and the two of them got on the boat one after another.
Cold sweat dripped down the middle-aged man's face.
In front of him, strands of hair were floating down. If he missed it by even a hair, his life would be at risk.
Bai Wangyu was silent and walked onto the boat together without saying another word.
Chapter completed!
