"Master Hong, let's 'knock' (slang for fighting)."
"Xiaobaizi" was the most impatient. As soon as he put the luggage he was carrying on the ground from a distance, he hurriedly grabbed the beef tendon slingshot in his hand. Not only did he play double strings, but he also picked up a handful of steel ball marbles.
Although Hong Yanwu also put down his luggage, he gave a teasing response.
"Okay! It's all up to you now. As long as you have this 'magic slingshot', those six 'spear guns' are nothing. I'll take care of the remaining two."
"Xiaobaizi" didn't hear the meaning behind the words, and actually took it seriously with a frown on his face.
"Master Hong, you think too highly of me. Those are six 'spear guns', and there are **** holes in your body. How many people can I hit with one bow? One shot of shotgun can only deal with two or three people." ..."
Hong Yanwu casually slapped him on the head.
"You kid still knows! Then what's the point of 'knocking'! Do you really want me to get shot before you're satisfied?"
"Xiaobaizi" was stunned, and finally felt something was wrong.
"Master Hong, what do you mean?"
"You still don't understand? You guys have seen the world with me. Think about it carefully, what kind of situation would lead people like us to fight and end up maimed and killed? Look at the eight of them, they are so complete Armed, do you think they really have the guts to kill people? They are not the "mountain eagles" of "Weihu Mountain", and they are not the same as us who have the hatred of killing their fathers and taking away their wives. How can they be guilty..."
"Xiaobaizi" completely woke up now.
"Hey, then they are just bluffing and trying to find something to make up for!"
"Well, I guess nine times out of ten, there will be other programs later."
Hong Yanwu pondered for a moment, then continued, "Okay, just to be on the safe side, you better not go there and just look at the luggage here with the old man. Remember, mind your own hands and listen to me. , let’s not act by chance. Don’t get excited and let a shotgun go by, and then the situation will be messed up, and I might really get shot..."
"Xiaobaizi" felt embarrassed after being called out. He touched the back of his head and repeatedly promised to obey orders. But "Old Saury" still felt uneasy.
"Xiao Wu! What you say makes sense, but don't rely on it! What if there is a contingency? If I don't think they are too excessive, I might as well go with them and suffer some losses, but also avoid..."
"Don't, old man, we are all used to having a cowardly temper. We don't bully others, but we don't let others bully us either. Let's be clear, not everyone has the ability to use knives or guns to risk one's life! There is no way you can go to jail just by pulling your head! Let me tell you, if you can only make money by buying seafood, why do you have to go to jail and be shot? So don't worry, I promise? It’s okay. This is because they want to save themselves and scare us..."
Hong Yanwu was very confident in what he said. Because as soon as he saw this scene, his brain had already judged the real situation.
First, the other party has no motive to kill them. Just the little friction between them, displayed in such a big way, actually shows that they have no intention of actually starting a fight. At most, they just want to win over the local snakes, forcing them to submit and save face. Otherwise, why bother talking about it? What he had seen in his life was that if he really wanted to kill someone, he would always do it in the dark when they were not prepared, without exception.
Second, if a conflict really breaks out, how will the situation evolve? Yes, they are all hot-blooded men. There is a possibility of being impulsive and fighting to the death due to their youthful energy, but it is not very likely. Because everyone knows the lethality of the "spear gun". As long as they are not desperate, who would act rashly and be so stupid?
And even if the other party really loses his mind and things get to the worst, he has a way to deal with it and make sure that the other party doesn't dare to act rashly.
So from the beginning, he was completely relaxed and not nervous at all.
However, for the sake of caution, he asked Chen Liquan specifically before leaving.
"Quanzi, do you feel the 'burning body'?"
"No, not murderous."
Chen Liquan's reply dispelled Hong Yanwu's worries at all. He only said, "Humph, a bunch of little melons, who are you scaring?" Then he greeted Chen Liquan, raised his feet and strode forward.
Chen Liquan followed behind Hong Yanwu. The always-concerned "Old Swordfish" certainly couldn't watch them go into danger alone. He only hesitated for a moment and then forcibly followed him.
As a result, Hong Yanwu walked swaggeringly at the front alone, with Chen Liquan and "Old Swordfish" behind him. The three of them maintained a "one, two, three" formation and headed straight for their opponents.
When "Xiao Baizi" who was looking at his luggage saw Hong Yanwu's back, he felt a kind of superstitious admiration. He thought to himself that Master Hong was Master Hong, and no matter where he was in the world, there was no one who could fight with him. Not yet born.
"Our business is not over yet, is it? What is the charter today?"
Without hesitation, he walked up to the eight people lined up and Hong Yanwu spoke first.
As he glanced around, the five acquaintances "Sanjizi", "Bachu", "Sea Hare", "Sea Dog" and "Dead Corpse" all lowered their heads without exception, which seemed to be a bit strange. Ashamed, she was speechless in response to his inquiry, and her majestic aura suddenly shrank a lot.
Seeing that something was wrong, a bald boy quickly rushed to speak.
"Are you all from the capital? You are the one I am looking for."
"What do you want from us?"
"What else are you asking me for, are you pretending to be stupid?"
"What are you talking about! Didn't you forcefully buy our tools? Didn't you ask someone to send a message and say you want to meet us? Ask these brothers if they ordered it in the first place. You went too far and agreed that the matter has been settled. Now you have the nerve to ask me, who is pretending to be stupid?"
The bald man was speechless for a moment and couldn't answer any more words. However, Hong Yanwu no longer gave him a chance, and took advantage of the situation to give him a hard "needle".
"The first ones are all melons. It seems like you can't make the decision. Talking to the people below is in vain. Who is the 'general'?"
"I..." The bald head suddenly widened his eyes angrily, and his face turned red from being squeezed. And a person next to him held him down and finally spoke.
"Friends, you people from the capital are very talkative! My brother can't beat you! But you have to look at the form, don't be too arrogant! I give the order, and you have to become a hedgehog!"
With these words, several "spear guns" were aimed at Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan. "Old Saury" was immediately startled. "Little Baizi" in the distance also became nervous and immediately ran a few steps forward.
But Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan turned a blind eye, as if they hadn't seen him, and just stared at the person who was speaking.
This made the one-sided "Old Saury" secretly admire. No matter whether they can really see that there is no danger, just by being in the scene and being stabbed by a spear that makes people's hearts tremble, they can still keep their expressions. This is their ability!
"Are you the 'general'?" Hong Yanwu still asked for final confirmation.
"Yes, I am the 'general'. Are you two the ones who ran against our brothers and took away two of our water mirrors? Huh, our 'touching the sea' has delayed you all. It's time to talk about it today. Said."
The man in front of Hong Yanwu looks like he is in his mid-20s, has an ordinary "thorn pot" head, and has a rather ordinary appearance. But he is the tallest among the eight people. Due to long-term immersion in sea water and repeated exposure to the sun, his skin is all bronze and has extremely developed muscles. Just now he was calm and inconspicuous, but his words were majestic and had a "general demeanor", and he really seemed like the rightful owner. So he nodded.
However, what he didn't expect was that "Old Saury" couldn't help but complain to this person before he could say anything else.
"'General'... you have something to say. Raise your hand and let things go. Everything is easy to discuss. After all, it is not easy for everyone, right?"
Hong Yanwu knew that "Old Swordfish" had good intentions and was thinking about them, so he was embarrassed to stop him and just continued to look at the "general" with an indifferent expression. The look in his eyes showed no sign of weakness.
This kind of unconvinced energy cannot be hidden from the other party's eyes. Therefore, the "general" didn't show off to "Old Saury" and sealed the door with just one sentence.
"For your sake, 'Old Swordfish,' I didn't want to make things too difficult for you. But both of your apprentices seem to want to give it a try. I'll leave it alone today, unless they bow their heads and apologize to us. Kneel down and return our water mirror, otherwise no one will be able to come back alive. You are old, so let’s get out of the way so as not to hurt you!”
"Don't, don't..." "Old Saury" was really panicked.
But he didn't expect that Hong Yanwu would still refuse to give in at all.
"There's nothing that can't be treated with a polite word. The cause of the matter was that your brother bullied me first, and we got the water mirror by force. You also forced us to buy all our tools. Do you think so, Does what you say hold water? With your reputation, you really make me look down on you..."
"What are you talking about? You're looking for death!" The bald man was so angry that he couldn't help it anymore. He stepped forward with the "spear gun" and stabbed Hong Yanwu with the spear.
Although he was just showing off his power, he didn't expect that Hong Yanwu would actually take action at this moment. Hong Yanwu quickly grabbed his wrist and snatched the spear gun away.
Besides, before he could react, Hong Yanwu turned his hand again, twisted his arm and forced him over, using him as a human shield in front of him. When he tried to resist again, his arm was so painful that it almost broke when he moved it, and he never dared to move again.
Almost at the same time, Chen Liquan also followed Hong Yanwu's example after he launched his attack. He also pulled the "Ba Chu" next to him, grabbed the gun, and restrained the man, all in one go. At this time, the two of them were holding a human shield and stood in front of the "Old Saury".
Everyone else who witnessed this scene, except "Xiaobaizi" who had his slingshot fully drawn in the distance, were all dumbfounded!
