Datang: In order to be a salted fish, I decided to look forward to my father Jackie Chan

Chapter 135 The Salt War Begins

"You stop these people, grab some people alive, I'll go to the stern boat to help!"

Standing on the side of the boat, Li Xiao looked at the distance between the two boats. Due to the gentle current and the closeness of each other, the boats were close, but the distance was limited, more than two meters by visual inspection. !
"Damn it!"

Li Xiao used all his breastfeeding strength to jump, and the sole of his front foot could barely step on the side of the stern boat!

"Old Liu, they are bringing heavy fuel oil, ready to set fire to the ship!"

One Eye patted the empty skin on his back, and smiled triumphantly, "Is it only now that we know we're going to burn the boat?"

"It's too late. I have followed you for thousands of miles before I thought of a way to find an opportunity. How could I let you stop us? Hahahaha!"

One-eyed reached for the torch on the deck, smiled contemptuously, and then urged the younger brothers, "Hurry up, if you can't finish pouring, just throw it on the roof of the cargo hold!"

The three of them took off the skin bags on their backs one after another, and threw them on the roof of the cabin with all their strength, and the fire oil flowed from top to bottom.

One-eyed no longer hesitated, threw the torch, and the fire burned quickly with the help of oil. One-eyed smiled contentedly as he watched the flames. Now this ship has the heaviest cargo. As long as this ship is burned, the task will be barely completed.

Burn a ship for 3000 taels of silver, and burn it all for 1 taels. Now that the ship with the most cargo is missing, it should be possible to negotiate more points!

One-eyed was thinking happily that the soldiers had already climbed to the deck from the side of the ship on the other side of the cabin!

"The arrow is strung, the bow is drawn to the full!"

The soldiers who had just boarded the boat surrounded the water bandits.

There are impatient water bandits, jump off the ship!

"Team shooting!"

Dozens of arrows whizzed out, and within a few breaths, the water surface was stained red with blood under the flames, and three corpses surfaced together!
"Raise your hands and surrender to survive!"

"Want to escape? You must die!"

"If you dare to rob my ship, you must know who I am. Chang'an is an honest and reliable young man, Li Xiao!"

"What I said, I think you green forest heroes know the weight!"

The water bandit who was about to escape was really moved when he heard Li Xiao's persuasion!
Jumping off the boat, he couldn't escape being shot and killed by random arrows.

Surrender, as long as you swear to the death not to recruit, what if you can live?
As long as the cargo on the ship is burned, the family members will also get a lot of wealth!One-eyed thinking that living a day is a day!Better to die than to live!

After that, more than a dozen water bandits were captured without a fight. As for the survivors of the other two boats, there were not many. The water bandits on Cheng Chumo's boat were killed by him, and he even made up a few knives. There was only one alive on the middle boat, and they are still alive now. Spitting blood!

"Old Liu, where are you hurt?"

Seeing Liu Rengui sitting against the side of the boat, Li Xiao asked, panting heavily.

"It should be a small problem. I was stabbed in the chest and stabbed in the arm!"

Li Xiao looked at the blood bubbling from his chest, "Damn it, a pound of blood has flowed out, is this still a small problem? Why is your heart so big?"

Li Xiao quickly returned to her cabin to look for needles and threads!
The soldiers on board are stepping up to put out the fire!

There were depressions in the cargo pile, and the flames were burning on the surface. Now that they rescued them, the flames overflowed, which increased the area of ​​the fire!

The one-eyed water bandit who was tied up behind his back was elated as he watched the soldiers save the fire more and more!

When Li Xiao returned to the stern boat, the soldiers were still doing useless work!
"Damn it, how can you use water to make fire? You need to use sand!" Li Xiao said angrily, "Go to the river and dig sand right away!"

Li Xiao walked to Liu Rengui's side, took a needle and thread in his hand, dipped it in the wine bowl, and after disinfecting it for a while, he sewed up Liu Rengui's wound, which was five or six inches long, from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.

Fortunately, even though spring has begun these days, the temperature is not high, the clothes are thick, and the wound is not deep.

But there was no anesthesia, and he was sutured directly, which still made Liu Rengui cry for his father and mother!
When injured, it is just a knife, and the feeling is not obvious.

Now one stitch is the same as sewing clothes, the taste should not be too sour!
One-eyed watched Li Xiao give an order, and treated the short fat scholar without haste, and was very puzzled in his heart, why does this Lord Li seem to be indifferent to the fire?
Of course Li Xiao wouldn't worry that the oil would burn his cargo!
Can salt be burned?

Besides, why does the cargo of the latter ship have a deep draft?

Wet salt!The salt harvested in a timely manner has been stored in bags after being bagged. There is no time and no space to dry it. Of course it is wet!

Li Xiao was only worried that the fire would burn the boat down, but it seemed that the worry was in vain. It would be better to let Liu Rengui get out of the pain sooner!
Li Xiao patted Liu Rengui lightly, "Stop howling, the two wounds have been stitched up, just a little bandage will do!"

In the cold weather, Liu Rengui was sweating in pain, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "My lord, is your suturing operation really that good?"

Liu Rengui also heard that Taoist Chen Bing, who went to Banqiao Town, boasted that Master Li's medical skills even admired his master Sun Simiao, but human flesh is as soft as clothes, is it reliable?

If he was unreliable, he would have suffered in vain. He had to be stitched forty or fifty stitches, and judging by the stitches, he was not as good at mending clothes as he was!

After cleaning the blood on his hands, Li Xiao said with a smile, "Don't worry, the injury will heal in a short time, and the wound will not look ugly."

Li Xiao ordered the soldiers to continue to be vigilant, and to observe the water at all times this time. The place where they docked a few days ago was turbulent, so they didn't notice this problem.

Damn, I really didn't expect that these people would come out of the water where the water flow slowed down tonight.

The torches were lit, and the deck was brightly lit.

One-eyed watched the fire gradually diminish, and felt more and more desolate in his heart.

What the hell is in this cabin? Even the fierce fire oil can resist it.

Li Xiao sat on a chair and ordered the soldiers to bring some simple instruments of torture to the cabin.

When the one-eyed man heard that this man was going to be tortured, he was very scared at first!
But the moment I saw the torture tools, I laughed in my heart. Is this bullying Lao Tzu never used torture?

Liu Rengui looked at the one-eyed water bandit's disdainful expression, and whispered in Li Xiao's ear, "My lord, don't you use a whip to soak in salt water? Or a soldering iron?"

"Look at that one-eyed expression, it's obvious that you're not afraid of little things like you!"

Li Xiaoqing lit the torture tool, and after hearing what Liu Rengui said, he looked at Cyclops.

"Oh? One-eyed, hey, aren't you afraid of these instruments of torture?"

"Tear off their masks, at this time, do you still want to keep your face?"

A dozen people tore off their masks.

The cook on board found that these people were somewhat familiar.

Suddenly, he said loudly, "My lord, I have seen these people these days. In Shandong Road, Henan Road, and Luoyang, I have seen these people when I went ashore to sell vegetables! But they all appeared separately. There is no doubt! Damn, you have followed us so far!"

The one-eyed mask was pulled off, and a bearded face appeared in front of Li Xiao.
