Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao were imprisoned on a huge ship, which was moored at a seldom-visited pier on the Yangtze River, guarded day and night by thousands of pirates.

According to Jiang Ping, those pirates are ruthless characters who lick blood at the edge of their swords. Even heroes like Nan Xia will inevitably be taken hostage by them.

But how could Zhao Yiyi be a person who changed from day to day? The plan to spy on the pirate ship at night was decided just like that.

Jiang Ping was the outpost and guide, Liu En was the main force, and Zhao Yiyi was in charge of coordinating in the middle, and went deep into the enemy camp under the protection of Liu En.

The main purpose of this night visit is to confirm Bao Zheng's survival, and to rescue Bao Zheng if possible.If it's not possible, make another plan.

It was already late at night, Jiang Ping changed into a sharkskin underwater suit, put his Fenshui Emei thorn on his back, and hung up a treasure bag: "Both, if you have any weapons that are handy, you still have to take them with you. Alarm the people on board, if there is an emergency, you still have to see the truth."

Liu En doesn't have any special weapons, he is an ai with perfect parameters, and all weapons are very convenient for him, so he borrowed a big knife from the guard sent by Di Niangniang: "This is very good .”

Jiang Ping raised his eyebrows, and Zhao Yiyi said suddenly: "Bring another sword, just in case."

Liu En had no objection, and took another sword. Zhao Yiyi asked the kitchen and asked for two large dried meat biscuits, wrapped them in oiled paper, and carried them in his arms: "It's all ready, we can go."

They are currently staying in Huixian Building. The cooks in Huixian Building are excellent at cooking delicacies from mountains and seas. Simply baking a piece of dried meat biscuits is also unique. The smell of noodles is mixed with the smell of meat. The gluttonous insects caused trouble, and the stomach growled continuously.

Jiang Ping said with a smile: "Young master, what do you do with it, it's so greedy."

Zhao Yiyi said: "In case you get hungry along the way, you can still use it as dry food."

Liu En tied the long sword around his waist, held the knife in one hand, and took Zhao Yiyi with the other: "Jiang Yishi, please lead the way."

Because it's a night trip, it's not good to make a big show, and I didn't dare to set up a carriage.Jiang Ping and Liu En rode a horse alone, and Liu En took the little emperor and walked quietly towards the river.

Yunniang's big ship is a three-masted sailboat about ten feet long and three feet wide, with a sharp bottom and broad plank, which can sail through the waves in strong wind and rain.

Even if the wharf moored in the inland river is as motionless as a mountain, it is like a giant beast sleeping, huge and majestic, frightening.

The three got off the boat hundreds of meters offshore, tied their horses, and sneaked to the shore quietly.

It was already late at night, and the lights on the big ship were still brightly lit.Sentinels with guns stood everywhere on the deck, and occasionally a team of pirates came up from the cabin to patrol the deck.

Pointing to the deck, Jiang Ping whispered: "This ship has thirteen compartments, Master Bao and Nan Xia are being imprisoned in the seventh compartment, and there are four guards in the compartment."

Liu En nodded and asked in a low voice, "How do we get up?"

Zhao Yiyi said: "The deck is open and unobstructed. If you want to enter the cabin, you can only get rid of everyone on the deck. Let's observe here for a while and see how often the patrolling guards go on the deck. Find out After the discipline, take advantage of the guards' absence, catch all the guards, and enter the compartment to save people."

Liu En nodded, and then asked Jiang Ping: "Jiang Yishi, how about the martial arts of the guards on those ships?"

Jiang Pingdao: "It's worse than my younger brother."

Liu En nodded, and counted the number of people on the deck, exactly 15 people: "I will join hands with Jiang Yishi, and within five breaths, we will be able to take them all down."

Jiang Ping frowned: "They have crossbows in their hands, and the arrows are all quenched with poison. It's not fun to get hit."

Liu En smiled: "As long as you move fast enough, you don't let them have a chance to shoot arrows."

Jiang Ping stopped talking.

They waited on the shore for half an hour, and finally figured out the guard's patrol rules.The guards came up to patrol every quarter of an hour, and the longer the interval was, it showed that they were slack.

What made Zhao Yiyi and the others even more gratifying was that when the guards came up to patrol for the last time, most of them staggered slightly and talked and laughed quite loudly, which showed that they had drank a lot.

Some of the fifteen guards on the deck also secretly took out a wine bag from their arms, and took a few sips while no one was paying attention.

There was also the sound of booing and cheering in the cabin, accompanied by cursing and laughter, it should be a gathering. Crowd. Gambling. Gambling.

This is good for them.The louder the cabin, the less noticeable the movement on deck.

Jiang Ping sighed: "Why did it become like this? When Yunniang was around, no one dared to drink, let alone..."

Suddenly remembering that the two people around him are from the government, he hurriedly said: "I am not..."

Zhao Yiyi smiled: "Jiang Yishi doesn't have to be like this, everyone understands."

People in the rivers and lakes, how normal it is to make friends with pirates.

I understand everything, I understand.

Jiang Ping gave a dry laugh, and tugged the water on his body: "I'll go down first, and the two of you will follow."

As he spoke, he got into the water and dived quietly towards the big boat.

Looking from the shore, Zhao Yiyi saw that the river was calm and without any ripples, and it was impossible to see a person advancing rapidly under the water.

As expected of a river mouse.

Zhao Yiyi secretly nodded in praise.

After a few breaths, a head suddenly appeared from the bottom of the boat.

The ship was a sharp-bottomed ship, and it was not loaded with cargo. The draft was relatively shallow, and the deck was a little far from the water surface. Even if you stood on the edge of the deck and looked down, you might not be able to see what was going on at the bottom of the ship.

Jiang Ping put his hands on the ship's plank, and suddenly jumped onto the deck, jumping off the two guards who were a little closer.

Just as the two guards were about to shout, they were swept into the river by Jiang Ping, one left and one right, "plop" and "plop", alarming the rest of the guards: "What's the movement?"

Looking back, there was no one but an empty deck, and he couldn't help laughing: "The two of them drank too much and fell into the river while urinating."

For a pirate who often walks on the sea, it doesn't matter if he falls into the river, even if he falls into the sea, he can still compete with the sharks who can swim faster.

A pirate came slowly towards this side: "Hey, live or die, don't tell me, Grandpa pissed on top of your head."

Saying that, I really want to start to untie my pants.

Jiang Ping, who was hanging on the side of the boat, cursed inwardly: "Piss on top of your grandfather's head!" He wanted to jump onto the deck with his backhand and bring this one down too, but Liu En had already brought Zhao Yiyi over the water.

"It's time to come!"

Liu Enfei got on the boat and bumped into the pirate who took off his trousers face to face.The pirate hiccupped: "Come up, why are you bringing one with you?"

He actually mistook Liu En and Zhao Yiyi for the two pirates who were thrown into the river by Jiang Ping.

Liu En didn't talk nonsense with him, and kicked him off the boat.Jiang Ping also turned over, and the two teamed up to subdue the remaining twelve pirates who hadn't reacted one by one, and threw them into the river, and then removed the gangway hanging from the side of the ship, preventing them from climbing onto the deck.

One of the pirates recognized Jiang Ping, pointed at his nose and yelled at him, saying that he was the one who wanted to pee on top of his head because he was so shameless.

Jiang Ping giggled, but ignored it, and made a gesture to untie his belt beside the boat, scaring the pirate to the side.

The deck was far away from the water, and the people in the cabin were busy drinking, gambling, and shouting. No one noticed that the guards on the deck were thrown into the Yangtze River, and no one even heard their yelling in the water.

Jiang Ping pointed to a hatch in the middle: "This is the place where they usually hold the prisoners. Master Bao and Nan Xia should be inside."

There was a lock on the cabin door, Liu En grabbed the lock and forcibly pulled the lock off.Seeing Jiang Ping, he hissed: "The hero is very skilled."

The cabin door opened in response, and Liu En put Zhao Yiyi behind him and headed in. There were ten cells on the left and right, and they were all so narrow that only one person could sit curled up inside.The four guards who were supposed to be guarding it were not here, and I thought they were just going to gamble.

Liu En took out a fire pocket from his arms, blew on it, lit a spark, lit the candle he carried with him, and saw that the candle was lit, he turned to Zhao Yiyi and said, "Master, you can come in."

Zhao Yiyi stepped into the cell cautiously, looked around, and looked for his Wenqu Xingjun.

Jiang Ping also came in, calling softly: "Nan Xia? Nan Xia?"

A faint but firm voice sounded from the depths of the cabin: "I am here."

Jiang Ping hurried forward and said happily: "Brother, we are here to save you!"

Before Zhao Yiyi went to that cell, he first found his Wenqu Xingjun in the cell next door——Bao Zheng was indeed unconscious, and was randomly stuffed into the narrow cell. There are no missing arms or legs.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to look at the other cell.

In another cell sat a young man. Although equally disheveled, he had a straight back and piercing eyes. Even though the lights were dim, Zhao Yiyi could not see his facial features clearly, but he could feel his strong character rather than bending.

Remembering that Jiang Ping called him Nanxia, ​​Zhao Yiyi understood that this person should be Bao Zheng's partner, Zhan Zhao, who was later called Yumao's guard.

It's just that Bao Zheng is not the governor of Kaifeng, and Zhan Zhao is not a fourth-rank guard, so Jiang Ping called him Nan Xia.

Jiang Ping looked at the structure of the prison cell: "Nan Xia, don't worry, we will definitely rescue you. Brother Liu, take a look at this, can you break it apart?"

He pointed to the three-finger thick iron bar in front of the cell and asked Liu En.

Liu En raised his hand and said, "Yes, but it will take time. The patrolling guards will be on deck in a quarter of an hour, and we may only have time to rescue one person."

"Save Mr. Bao first!"

Zhan Zhao said firmly.

Jiang Ping said anxiously: "Brother, we took advantage of a loophole to come in this time. After they find out, we must strictly guard it, and it will be difficult to come in again!"

In his heart, he actually knew which was more important——Bao Zheng was an imperial official, and his life and death were uncertain in a coma, the reform of the tea administration was at stake, and Zhan Zhao was just a quack.If one had to choose between the two, of course Bao Zheng should be rescued first.

However, he is Zhan Zhao's friend after all, and he is not willing to put him in danger.

He knew these pirates too well, and he had angered them when he released the Fan family's messengers privately before. If he hadn't had such a relationship with Yun Niang, those pirates would have eaten him alive long ago.

Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao have something to do with Yunniang's coma. These pirates had a grudge against the two of them in their hearts, but now they are just thrown into the cell instead of sacrificing them to the sea, which is already the result of enough restraint .

If he hadn't tried his best to lobby, these two people, one of whom is a court official and the other is a famous knight-errant, might not be able to survive to this day with all their needs and tails.

Now that they have broken in and robbed the prison, they can only take both of them away, and there is no saying that one should be taken away and the other should be left behind.

If one were to be left behind, the remaining person would become the outlet for all the pirates' anger. What would happen then was beyond anyone's expectations.

In fact, Jiang Ping had a little hope in his heart that if there must be someone who wants to stay, Bao Zheng can be kept.

After all, Zhan Zhao is his friend, but Bao Zheng is not.

And Bao Zheng is still an official, the pirates may not dare to do anything to the official.Zhan Zhao is just a chivalrous man, the danger he will face if he stays is much greater than that of Bao Zheng.Bao Zheng is still in a coma, so it's not easy to take him away. Liu En wants to protect Zhao Yiyi, who has no martial arts. His own martial arts are mediocre, so it may be difficult to take Bao Zheng who is unconscious. It's better to rescue Zhan Zhao, and he can live another... …

For a moment, Jiang Ping thought of countless reasons, but he knew that none of them could convince Liu En and Zhao Yiyi, and even Zhan Zhao himself could not be willing to leave Bao Zheng alone on the boat.

He could only hammer the iron bars resentfully, and he only blamed the four guards for drinking, otherwise he took the key out of them like last time, wouldn't they be able to save both of them!

Zhao Yiyi touched the iron bar, and asked Zhan Zhao behind the iron bar: "Since Nan Xia is a famous knight, he must have high martial arts skills, can he break the iron bar by himself?"

He calculated the combat power system in his mind.

After many inquiries, he already knew that the knight next to Kou Zhun who had a [-]/[-] relationship with Liu En was named Ouyang Chun, and he was Beixia.Ouyang Chun and Zhan Zhao, one in the south and the other in the north, should have the same fighting strength. Even if Nan Xia is a little weaker due to his younger age, the difference between the two should not be an order of magnitude. Overall, they are roughly equal.

What Liu En can do, Zhan Zhao should be able to do even with a little more effort.

Before he came, he had already planned to use Nanxia as a fighting force.Otherwise, how could he follow Bao Zheng to rob the prison when he was in a coma? No matter how powerful Liu En is, he would not be able to exert much of his power with two living people.

As for Jiang Ping...

He looked at Jiang Ping's strength value of 87 points, and thought, your strength value is only a little higher than Yan Shu's, it's really a little bit, as a knight-errant, don't you feel ashamed!

He clicked on Kaizhao's force value again, and it was 99, so he looked like a Jianghu man!

Although this 99 is a bit lower than Bao Zheng's 100...but isn't it normal for Wenqu Xingjun to have a high force value!

Zhan Zhao also stretched out his hand and shook the iron bar, and said with a wry smile, "Originally it was possible, but now..."

He suddenly saw the leading young man take out an oiled paper bag from his arms, a scent of oil mixed with noodle fragrance penetrated into his nose, and his stomach suddenly gurgled.

Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to press his belly, staring straight at the paper bag: "Those people haven't given me food for three days. I don't have the strength in my hands now, so I might not be able to open it."

What is this!It smells so good!I want to eat!

Zhao Yiyi opened the oiled paper bag, and handed two pieces of dry meat biscuits that were still warm to Zhan Zhao: "Eat it, you will have strength when you are full."

High-fat, high-salt, refined carbohydrates, rich in protein, eating one is worth three, let alone breaking the iron bar, it is no problem to go up the mountain and fight tigers.

Before he came, he expected that the food on the pirate ship would not be good, and that Zhan Zhao might have a hunger debuff, so he thoughtfully prepared a knight set meal for him.

Let's eat, let's show off our power after eating!

Then he turned to Liu En and said, "Hurry up and break the iron bars on Baoqing's side, he can't come out by himself, you have to go in and bring him out, the gap has to be bigger."

Jiang Ping was taken aback when he heard Bao Qing's voice, and his face immediately returned to normal.

Couldn't really be a prince...

This one seems to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, is he already that old?

"Trouble Yishi Jiang to watch the wind at the door. If any pirate finds something unusual, come back and tell us immediately."

Jiang Ping bowed his head and said yes, and went to the cabin door flickeringly.

Damn, what a prince, it seems that the incident in Yangzhou this time is really big.

Speaking of which, the reason why Yangzhou is in such a mess now is that Yunniang insists on taking care of the ancient and modern pots. If the court investigates it in the future, will she be in danger?

When she wakes up, remind her to go to sea to avoid the limelight.

You say it's true, what is a good pirate doing all the time running on land, it's so scary.

It seems that Yunniang went ashore this time because of Bao Zheng, right?

By the way, she seems to have taken a fancy to Bao Zheng...

You see, this incident is so troublesome, it's really dizzy...

Sigh, when will Yunniang wake up...

Zhan Zhao took two dried meat biscuits and devoured them hungrily, Liu En broke the iron bars, and Zhao Yiyi had nothing to do, so he opened everyone's property panel to observe one by one.

Needless to say, Liu En, the system AI has perfect attributes in all aspects. It is said that there is still room for upgrades in the future, but Zhao Yiyi feels that it is perfect now.

His ai was given by the system when he first became the prince, saying it was to reward him for taking a solid step on the road to the eternal emperor.But after he ascended the throne, the system didn't respond at all. Maybe he felt that he was the same as the puppet emperor, and there was nothing to reward him.

If you want systematic rewards, I'm afraid you have to wait until you really take charge of the government.

It is estimated that Liu En can be upgraded at that time.

Soon, soon, two years at most, no longer, he really has had enough of being a puppet.

When he takes power, he will send Liu E to become a monk in Yuqing Palace, and then raise hundreds of civet cats in Yuqing Palace. He will also let Liu E experience the feeling of not being able to sleep at night.

Zhao Yiyi thought viciously.

As for Kou Zhun...

Zhao Yiyi hasn't figured out how to arrange Kou Zhun yet, and it doesn't look like Kou Zhun can retire completely depending on how tough his body is.worry.

He opened the display panel again, intelligence 90, force 99, morality 97, loyalty 68, it's ok, everything is perfect except that the loyalty is a little bit low, anyway, he is Bao Zheng's subordinate, loyal or not? It doesn't matter to the emperor, very good, the guards with knives can be arranged.

After observing Zhan Zhao's panel, he casually opened Bao Zheng's.

Bao Zheng's panel is nothing new, it's a string of 100, and there's a popular Wenqu Xingjun at the top... huh?

Zhao Yiyi looked at the small words behind Wenqu Xingjun: Lihunzhong.

Leave the soul?

Bao Zheng lost his soul?

Sure enough, this world is quite fantasy, but how to deal with the thing of Lihun?

After going back, find a few monks and Taoist priests, can you call the soul back?

Just as he was thinking, Zhan Zhao had already finished eating the biscuits, and his whole body was filled with inexhaustible strength. He held onto the iron bar in front of him and broke it apart with all his strength.

His inner strength was so deep that he slowly broke the iron bar into a slightly wider gap.

Liu En had already broken off the iron bars, and went in by himself to help Bao Zheng out.Seeing that the work over there was over, Zhan Zhao was not to be outdone, he held on to the gap and was about to get out.

Zhao Yiyi looked at the gap, which didn't seem to be wide enough for a person to get through. Just as he was about to remind him, Zhan Zhao turned his body to one side and came out just like that.

...As expected of a cat...

Zhao Yiyi looked at Zhan Zhao with some admiration.

Zhan Zhao bared his teeth for joy, and wanted to touch the child's head - the child looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, and although Zhan Zhao himself was not a few years older than him, he considered himself a famous knight, and This kind of little kid is different - just stretched out his hand, thinking of Jiang Ping's respectful attitude towards this kid, he hesitated a little.

I don't know if this child is an official. If he is an official, he must be a good official. After all, how can he come to save them if he is not a good official?

He asked himself that even if Bao Zheng was as old as this kid now, he still couldn't touch Bao Zheng's head, it was too disrespectful.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly withdrew his hands, put his back behind his back, and asked Zhao Yiyi, "My lord, what kind of official are you?"

Zhao Yiyi looked up at him: "I am a high official, you are not allowed to touch my head."

Don't think he doesn't know, the direction of that hand is too obvious, okay!

Zhan Zhao had another laugh, and just about to say something, he heard Jiang Ping's panicked voice: "Come out, someone has found out!"

Zhao Yiyi was taken aback. How could anyone find out that it hadn't been a quarter of an hour yet?

Liu Engang pulled Bao Zheng out of the prison, and heard that he was about to pull Zhao Yiyi, but saw that Zhan Zhao had already guarded Zhao Yiyi behind him: "Master Bao is in your hands!"

The situation was urgent, and it would be unnecessary to switch the two places. Liu En pulled down the long sword tied around his waist and threw it to Zhan Zhao. With Bao Zheng in one hand and the knife in the other, he rushed out of the hatch. On the shoulders, followed closely.

The cabin is small, and there is no escape route. If you are blocked by someone, you will suffer, and you must rush out as soon as possible.

When I got out of the cabin door, I saw the loud shouts on the deck, and hundreds of people were holding torches in their hands. The leader was a bald man with a thick back and waist, pointing at Jiang Ping and shouting: "You bastard, how dare you collude with outsiders to rob the prison!"

Jiang Ping helplessly spread his hands: "Brother Zheng, what you said is misunderstood. Could it be that I am your wife?"

The pirate surnamed Zheng waved his big hand: "Don't worry about outsiders and insiders, you guys, take him down, chop him up with that Bao Zheng and feed the fish, and clean up the house for the boss!"

Zhan Zhao was furious when he heard the words, and he stood up with a long sword in his hand: "Zhan Zhao is here, dare you!"

Zhao Yiyi, who had a stomachache from being held on his shoulders, closed his eyes.

put me down!

I am dizzy cat!
