Correct Posture For Redemption - Chapter 56
Gu Miru traveled day and night on horseback and only had a short rest each day. It took three days and two nights to arrive in Philadelphia.
She brought not many people this time, mainly to bring Lin Zhong back. All the people she brought were first-class dead soldiers. If they just ran for their lives, there would be almost no danger to their lives.
When the group settled down in Philadelphia, the dawn had just penetrated the earth.
They first followed the previous news and used the wolf dog they searched to find the location of Lin Zhong’s footing.
But there was no one in the ruined temple, Gu Miru and the others only found some **** strips of cloth.
Lin Zhong was indeed injured, and the blood on the cloth strip was not right. Obviously, he was not only injured, but also festered.
And Lin Zhong is not at the place where he is staying now, which means that he has already gone to assassinate the water bandits.
Gu Miru looked worried at the cloth strip.
She systematically said in her mind: [This time, when you find someone back, let him stay by your side. Anyway, he doesn’t understand love, so he will stay there without losing a piece of meat. 】
Gu Miru pursed her lips, her best idea was to catch Lin Zhong before he could act.
But now it’s clear that people can’t catch it.
Gu Miru had no choice but to ask people to quickly prepare the merchant ship, and bought the flag of a random company and hung it on the ship.
Then they prepared a lot of “goods” in full swing.
It was about as long as a big flag was raised brightly, and it said, “The water bandits are about to rob me.”
Everything on the ship was ready, it was afternoon, and on the pier in Philadelphia, they also encountered a caravan, which seemed to be about to set off from the pier.
Gu Miru and the others were not in a hurry to sail the boat and let the caravan go first. She herself was not dressed yet.
She bought a red gauze dress in the field of fireworks locally in Philadelphia, painted herself a delicate makeup, and bought a long harp, which she posed on the bow of the boat.
Gu Miru asked a dead man to pretend to be a businessman, put on a beard, and watch her play the piano.
Just before sunset, the boat sailed on the water and headed towards the den of the water bandits, the canyon where the merchants would avoid.
Bandits, even if they occasionally let go of the merchant ships, they would never let go of the firework girls dressed up on the merchant ships.
This is simply rampant, a provocation to the water bandits.
It’s fine to transport goods with your tail tucked in, but you still play and sing and play prostitutes in broad daylight. If you don’t get robbed, you will be sorry for the name of the Philadelphia water bandit.
Although such a discerning person seems to be an obvious trap, this group of water bandits are not ordinary water bandits. They are very rampant in the Philadelphia area, and the scale is not small.
There is only one merchant ship, even if the ship is full of officers and soldiers, they are not afraid.
Gu Miru was going to be robbed, so that she could know whether Lin Zhong was caught or the mission failed and ran away.
Or…not yet.
Gu Miru was dressed in a red dress that was brighter than the clouds, and her face was covered with veil, which was dazzling in the green and yellow canyons everywhere in the early October winter.
Especially at this moment when the sunset is shining on the river, Gu Mi has long eyebrows and curved lines, her back is straight and her waist is thin.
The light veil on his face was stroked by Jiang Feng, as if the mountain wind also wanted to see what kind of fairy and jade appearance was born under this veil.
The closer they got to the canyon, the more dim the sky became.
Among the cottages built on the cliffs of the canyon, someone was attracted by the sound of the piano and immediately notified the entire stockade.
The head of the water bandit was eating dinner. Not only was the food not crude, but there were several kinds of large pieces of meat.
The wine is served in a large bowl, and it is very enjoyable to eat meat and drink in large gulps.
He has a sturdy build and is nine feet long, and his taut muscles are about to burst out under the coarse cloth.
Just as they were eating deliciously, the brothers in the stockade shouted outside, “Boss Shan, there are merchant ships passing by, don’t do it!”
The boss of the mountain is not called the boss of the mountain because he is the king, but his name is Han Shan.
He was originally a street fighter in Philadelphia. He abused his good daughter in the first few years, and strangled her to death in the process, so he took him on a boat overnight.
I originally wanted to go down the river to be a fugitive, but later came to this mountain and found that the place was in danger and a group of brothers followed.
All these years, they have been relying on robbery for a living, but as their reputation has spread, fewer boats dare to pass through the canyon in this river.
Only ships from other places that do not understand the market situation and who have not been informed by the people in Philadelphia will occasionally pass this gorge.
But it was also at night, and the caravan that dared to cross the river before it was dark had not been seen for a long time.
Han Shan raised his head to look at the door, and shouted loudly, “Jie! Jie, keep it for the New Year!”
The younger brother took the order, “Hey!” and added another sentence before running away: “There is a fairy-like beauty in red sitting on the bow. When the robbery comes, let the boss open a meal!”
Although Han Shan is bound to win the robbery of the merchant ship, he lacks interest.
Now that he is doing this kind of thing, he doesn’t need Han Shan at all. He has thousands of brothers, all of whom are good players.
They no longer mainly live by robbing merchant ships, but colluding with local officials to sell illicit salt.
But they wouldn’t let go of this kind of caravan in the past. No matter how small the flies are, they are meat. Half of the people in the thousand or so are young and strong, and their **** hurts in the stockade.
They opened the sluice to let the boat into the water, and before they could rob the boat, they shouted one after another, like a group of uncivilized gorillas.
Of course, they were not shouting at the cargo on the merchant ship, but at Gu Miru, who was sitting on the bow of the ship in red and playing the piano.
Gu Mi turned her fingers like a finger, and the long harp in her hand made an urgent and harsh sound.
In the world of immortality, she had also skipped Yinxiu. If she could use her spiritual energy, she would have killed all the gorillas who were yelling at her from a distance across the river.
They had to be shaken to the point that they all smashed and bleed.
But in fact, Gu Miru quickly stopped playing the piano, pretending to be afraid to hug the piano and hide in the cabin.
She said to the men she brought: “If you fight a little bit, you will be caught without your hands, and your life will be the first. If you can’t, you will jump into the river.”
“Our main goal is to enter the stockade to find people.”
By the way, kill this water bandit leader.
Gu Miru didn’t intend to kill people at first, but her head hurts because of the foul language of these gorillas.
These **** must have done this kind of thing a lot under the instigation of the leader of the water bandit. I don’t know how many people were buried under this gorge among the merchant ships in the past.
Come here, it’s a pity not to kill.
The boat of the water bandits has come, they pretended to turn their heads and slipped away, but in fact the boat was very slow, waiting for the other side to take the bait.
But at this moment, in the distant sky and earth that were about to meet at dusk, several merchant ships sailed.
Gu Miru felt bad when she saw it, these ships met the first ship at the dock before.
Shouldn’t they go this way first, could they follow them?
Gu Miru hurriedly asked people to put a flag on them, signaling them to step back and change paths.
But it was obviously too late at this time. Several boats seemed like silly fish that crashed into the net. How could the water bandits let them go?
When these ships reached a certain position, boulders rolled down from the mountains on both sides of the canyon, and ropes were pulled on the rolled boulders – and soon a huge net rose from the river, preventing the cargo ships from leaving.
At the same time, in the cottage, Han Shan was very happy to hear that two waves of people came in today.
He was just finishing his meal and instructed his brothers: “Put ten more boats and take up arms!”
The people in the stockade are also very excited, there have not been so many ships for a long time.
Facing the sunset, Gu Miru saw the big net that was suspended by the boulder, covering the sky and the sun, and her expression behind the veil was a little gloomy.
Do you really regard this gorge as a fishing ground, and treat all the merchant ships as fish?
Lawless.
Gu Miru retracted her gaze. Although the plan has changed, since the caravan can’t run away, she has to act as she should.
When the time comes, the thief will be captured first, and the king will be caught first.
Several merchant ships that were intercepted also appeared to be in a panic. Some of the ships were even spinning in place, and there were not many guys who went to the deck to check.
Soon Han Shan led the team out of the stockade. Their ships were all armed with water bandits. They looked very imposing, like a small army.
Gu Miru was in the cabin, slowly wiping her knife with her bright red robe.
After wiping it, he directly stuffed it back to the bottom of the changqin, and then hugged the changqin. The pair of eyebrows and eyes on the veil showed a panicked expression.
The water bandits are used to being rampant. Looking at the people who came out of these boats, the weapons in their hands were either harpoons or sticks. At first glance, they looked like a group of defenseless lambs.
Therefore, when they boarded the ship to check, they divided into several teams and boarded several ships respectively.
“Which one has the beautiful girl?” Han Shan asked his subordinates in a loud voice.
“It’s this small boat, hiding in the cabin hahaha.”
Han Shan was not surprised and boarded this smaller cargo ship.
The guys on the cargo ship were all pretending to be dead men, and all of them were not good at acting, so they simply pretended to be afraid of surrendering and begged for mercy.
In fact, it is waiting for all the water bandits to get on the boat.
And the water bandits who got on other cargo ships also got on smoothly.
It was just a group of people who entered the warehouse to check the goods like big crabs, but there was no sound when they entered.
There were only a few people inside, but people outside noticed something was wrong, so they stepped forward to check it subconsciously. There was a person who was more sensitive and turned around and wanted to run.
Instantly stretched out from the warehouse, three hands belonging to different men in black were pulled back.
At this time, all the boats looked calm, the setting sun was half submerged on the water, and the mountain wind was gentle, which could not blow any ripples in the water.
But there was a ripple in the water, slowly swimming towards the boat on Mount Han.
Lin Zhong has been groping in this mountain for a few days. The water bandit’s nest is under the cliff, built in the center. The rock wall is steep, it is laborious to go up and down, and there are many guards.
He hadn’t been able to touch it for several days, and the wounds on his body had been infected repeatedly, and there had been two light rains in the past two days.
If he can’t find a breakthrough today, he plans to go back first.
Unexpectedly, when he was about to give up and prepare to return to the city to recover, and when he came back for a while, a merchant ship broke into the Xiajiang River.
Lin Zhong was dormant, feeling that this was an opportunity, he could take advantage of the chaos to enter the stockade and kill.
So he swam quietly into the river from the shore, using the straw to lurk in the water.
The water bandits really refused to let go of the boat and sent people out.
But when Lin Zhong was about to board the ship, another ship came over.
This time, he stepped through the iron shoes and found nowhere, and the water bandit Han Shan was led out from the stockade.
Lin Zhong knew his portrait, and quietly probed into the water to compare the person on the head boat. There was no doubt that it was Han Shan.
He thought that this was a great opportunity that must not be missed.
Seeing a smaller cargo ship with a woman on Mount Han, it quietly swam over from the water.
When Han Shan got on the boat, Lin Zhong stuck his head out of the water and shook his dazed head.
The icy autumn water didn’t wake him up much, and he had been having a high fever for several days.
His sensitivity and perception have dropped a lot, and even his distance vision has been affected to a certain extent.
That’s why he was far away, just staring at the group of red for a while, he couldn’t see it at all, and he didn’t even think that the woman who played the piano between the mountains and rivers and attracted the water bandits was Gu Miru.
Like a water spider, he crawled silently toward the boat—
Inside the house at the moment.
Han Shan looked at Gu Miru, his eyes straightened.
“Girl, what’s so good about following this poor man in business, it’s better to follow the Lord, be the Lord’s Mrs. Yazhai, and the Lord guarantees you to eat delicious and spicy food!”
As soon as Han Shan’s voice fell, all the brothers around him laughed hahaha.
It was rare for Han Shan to have the patience to treat this little beauty directly and rudely. It was true that he had just eaten and drank, and it had been a long time since he had met such a superb quality that made him so excited.
The best beauties are like tofu, they can’t be too rough, or they will shatter when touched!
Han Shan’s men controlled the “crew” with knives.
No one went to see what cargo was on the ship, they had been vegetarian for too long, and they were all watching how the boss flirted with the beauties.
Such a good-looking woman is still half-covered with a veil, which is even more sultry than showing her true face directly!
So the boat was full of wretched laughter hahaha.
Gu Miru stepped back with Changqin in her arms, pressing her hand on the knife under the piano, wondering whether to cut him first, then threaten others to enter the mountain, or cut him after the first mountain.
Gu Miru would definitely want his head.
She was forced by Han Shan to retreat to the window of the cabin, looking like she was about to jump into the river in desperation.
When Han Shan saw it, he was immediately frightened. It was not a woman who had not been caught before jumping over, begging for death, and was soon drowned.
Han Shan can’t bear to let such a beautiful woman drown, he hasn’t tasted it yet.
So he stopped persuading and flirting, and walked quickly to the window, grabbing at Gu Miru—
The accident happened at this moment. As soon as Han Shan reached the window, an arm suddenly stretched out from the window, holding a filament that was almost invisible like silk, and quickly wrapped around Han Shan’s neck.
Then Han Shan made an “uh” sound, and was strangled to the window, holding Gu Miru in his hand, and untying the filament around his neck with the other hand.
His face was pressed against the window, and he met the person who was holding the filament in his hand and was working hard.
devil.
Han Shan’s last consciousness can only think of this sentence.
Because he saw that person’s cold and red eyes, like eyes without human emotions.
His forehead was soaked white in the water, like a long-decomposed corpse.
He didn’t say a word, his pale lips pursed tightly, and then he moved his fingers to pick up a filament that restrained Han Shan’s neck.
Pull, then pull hard.
The filament caught in Han Shan’s neck, cutting off half of his head in an instant.
All this happened in an instant, blood spurted out with a delay, splashing Gu Miru’s face.
Blocked by her veil, the red became even more vivid.
The room was watching his boss molesting the woman, and he was even expecting the water bandit that he was going to get on. After a while, his boss’s neck was twisted into an unbelievable arc, and someone outside the window was attacking him.
The man seemed dissatisfied that he couldn’t cut off the head all at once, grabbed Han Shan’s hair, and was pulling it down.
To do the task, he had to bring back the opponent’s head. Lin Zhong should not carry a knife in the water, and in his current state, it was not suitable to use a long knife, and he was a little dizzy.
So he attacked with a soft wire knife.
This thing is very common in killer organizations, but unfortunately it takes some strength to kill, and soft silk knives are also divided into good and bad.
Lin Zhong didn’t use it very well. He didn’t exchange all the rewards he got. Every time he took the task and left, he was afraid that Gu Miru would find him too soon, and he wouldn’t be able to become a first-class dead man. .
He couldn’t stay by her side any longer.
He was struggling to squeeze the soft silk knife with his fingers, trying to cut off Han Shan’s big head quickly.
“Big brother!”
“Brother-“
The scene was chaotic, and Gu Miru almost drank blood. She couldn’t see out the window from this angle, but it didn’t prevent her from knowing that Lin Zhong was here.
The people she brought will not do anything without her orders.
If the other party wants a head, it must be Lin Zhong!
Gu Miru shouted in a deep voice, “Do it!”
One threw the qin and pulled out the long knife under the qin.
Some of the “crew” who were restrained quickly countered, Gu Miru stabbed a water bandit who was killing her, and then hooked one arm to the top of the cabin, and kicked her legs along the sash above Han Shan’s head. Fly straight out of the cabin—
The moment Gu Miru called out to do it, Lin Zhong heard her voice.
He didn’t even bother to cut his head, his first reaction was to run!
He got up and ran, but because of his current state, he was half a step late.
At the moment when he pulled the cloth towel and hat around his head and face, and jumped into the river, Gu Mi was like a little toe, and her waist twisted back in the air, landing on the railing where Lin Zhong was about to jump into the river.
The long knife was pressing on his neck.
At the same time, he met Lin Zhong’s flustered eyes.
Lin Zhong raised his wrist and bumped against the blade, then turned to run again, but Gu Mi quickly grabbed the back collar with her eyes and hands.
Then Gu Miru pulled his back collar with one hand and pressed the back of his neck with a knife in the other, hitting him with all his strength, causing Lin Zhong and her to fall off the railing together.
“Lin Zhong!”
Gu Miru roared at him, pressed him with a knife against the cabin bulkhead, and said angrily, “What are you running for!”
Lin Zhong’s body was stiff, and his breathing was so short that it was like a horse that had run for eight hundred miles in a hurry.
His collar was attached to his hood and face covering, and it was torn off by Gu Miru.
Lin Zhong didn’t move.
The last ray of light from the sky was engulfed by the river water.
Gu Miru just wanted to kick Lin Zhong’s **** hard, this **** thing!
But this situation is obviously not suitable for settlement, Gu Miru gritted her teeth and said to Lin Zhong: “I let you go, if you dare to run again, I will never see you again in this life!”
Gu Miru finished threatening people, and found that what she threatened was a little wrong… She had never threatened anyone with such a thing.
She is as careful as her hair is, even for herself.
She soon discovered that she had long realized that Lin Zhong just wanted to see her.
The anger in Gu Miru’s heart disappeared, and the ripples in her heart were almost the same as the ripples in the river at the moment due to the shaking of the ship’s body.
Circles and circles swayed silently in the dark night.
But instead of taking the words back, she let go of Lin Zhong.
At this time, the people in the room also dealt with everything, and did not come out. They only said to the window where Gu Miru jumped out of the window: “Miss, it’s dealt with.”
Gu Miru responded and found that Lin Zhong had been let go, but he was still against the bulkhead of the cabin.
He was like a lifeless piece of kelp stranded on a rock, dead for a long time.
Gu Miru grinned at her own thoughts.
Just as he was about to speak to Lin Zhong, he heard his subordinates say, “What about the people on the other boats, they are coming towards us!”
“Kill.” Gu Miru said, “run away after killing.”
Everyone took orders to make a fighting stance, but the big ship on the opposite side stopped not far away, and the ship lights were lit.
On the deck of the merchant ship closest to them, there was a man in black, who was not a water bandit at first glance.
“Miss.” He shouted in Gu Miru’s direction, just like Gu Miru’s subordinates shouted: “Everyone has been dealt with.”
Gu Miru squinted her eyes and recognized this person very sharply, but it was the guard who had been following her cheap father Gu Yancheng!
In a flash, Gu Miru figured out everything.
It turned out that the good father was worried about her, and quietly sent a large group of dead men to follow her thousands of miles to catch rabbits.
Is this what it feels like to be pampered by your own father?
No wonder these merchant ships collided like silly fish hitting the net.
Gu Miru paused and replied, “Stand by first.”
“Yes!” The man said to Gu Miru across the river.
Gu Miru put away the knife and said to Lin Zhong, “Look, how flamboyant you are. I brought so many people to take you back to Tianluo Villa, you should go back with me?”
The lights of their ship were also lit. Gu Miru looked at Lin Zhong and kept that posture. Although she didn’t run, she didn’t turn her head to look at her, and she always felt that something was wrong.
Gu Miru stepped forward and reached out to touch Lin Zhong’s shoulder, Lin Zhong said dumbly, “Don’t come here.”
Gu Miru: “…”
how?
Like a little lady who was caught by the water bandits, she didn’t say anything to Han Shan just now.
“What the **** are you doing? If you want the title of the first-class dead man, you can wait until next summer to pass the Thirteenth Formation, and you will definitely be able to pass. If you insist on killing people to upgrade, are you stupid!”
“Don’t you cherish life the most? You are not willing to be controlled after hundreds of deaths, Lin Zhong…”
Gu Miru was about to say, “I don’t deserve this.”
But when she got close, Lin Zhong turned his back to her, and covered his wet hood over his face.
When Gu Miru hurriedly covered it up, she found the pale wounds on the back of his hand and the side of his face.
“You’re injured.” Gu Miru stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder.
Lin Zhong held the cabin with one hand, and it was already at the end of the fight.
He couldn’t hear what Gu Miru said, only a humming sound.
In my heart I was thinking “the face can’t be seen by her…”.
Gu Miru pulled his shoulder, and Lin Zhong fell to the ground without warning.
If Gu Mi was prepared to fight against him, but without the precaution that he would faint, she failed to catch him in time.
Lin Zhong fainted for a while, and hit his head on the ground again with a thud.
He woke up again.
In a daze, he saw Gu Miru approaching him.
He subconsciously reached out to cover the wound on his face.
He said, “Don’t look at me…” Ugly.
“Ugly” could not be uttered, and his raised hand slammed on the deck again.
He passed out.
Han Shan looked at each other for a short while on the face, and the scars that were regarded as evil spirits were exposed.
Gu Miru was stunned and stiff in the squatting motion.
The system said: “Is he really unsympathetic? He won’t show you any injuries, I’m afraid you will dislike him.”
Gu Miru cursed in her heart.
She squatted down and saw Lin Zhong’s originally handsome face – ruined by the shaking lights on the boat.
