The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 12: The Swordsman
In the evening, when the merchant ship reached the Qiantang River, Fang Hao knew that this place was not far from Lin'an Prefecture, the most prosperous place in the Southern Song Dynasty.

So he picked up his bag, went to the deck, felt the river breeze on his face, and felt extremely comfortable.

At this moment, a sailor shouted from the bow: "The pirates are coming!"

The captain of the ship saw this and walked to the bow. He took a closer look and his expression changed immediately. He said, "It's the pirates from the Haisha Gang. Hurry up and raise the sails and speed up!"

The pirates from the Haisha Gang have arrived! As soon as these words were spoken, chaos broke out on the deck.

Seeing this, Fang Hao pulled a sailor and asked, "Who is this Haisha Gang?"

He had been on Peach Blossom Island for ten years and had no idea of ​​the situation in the outside world, so he asked this question.

The sailor struggled several times but could not break free from Fang Hao's restraints. Knowing that he had met a master, he told Fang Hao the origin of the Haisha Gang in detail.

It turns out that the Haisha Gang were originally pirates who roamed around the waters around Guangzhou Prefecture and committed crimes.

In recent years, since the gang leader Chen Liangchen succeeded to the throne, they began to expand rapidly, and their influence spread to the Lin'an Prefecture area. They committed crimes right under the noses of the Southern Song Dynasty officials, which was extremely arrogant.

However, the ships of the Haisha Gang pirates came and went as fast as the wind, and they could escape directly into the sea after the robbery. Therefore, although the government launched several encirclement and suppression operations, the results were not great.

This time the ship was hijacked, it was obviously their usual trick, after hitting the target with one strike, they would escape thousands of miles away.

"Pirates at sea?" Fang Hao asked for details and looked to the side of the ship. He saw several speedboats rushing towards them like arrows. Behind the speedboats, there was a small sea ship following closely under the cover of night.

The enemy's speed was so fast that a fierce battle was inevitable. The captain immediately mobilized the sailors and merchants on the ship to resist together.

The Haisha Gang pirates have always been brutal in their actions, killing people and robbing them without hesitation. Since there is no way to make peace, everyone has to join forces to fight.

"boom!"

At this moment, several speedboats of the pirates had already crashed into their merchant ship. The next moment, more than a dozen shirtless Haisha Gang pirates climbed up from the side of the ship.

For a moment, the deck was filled with shouts of killing!

Seeing this, Fang Hao also drew out the green sword in his hand. Although traveling in the martial arts world, licking blood on the blade is a common occurrence for people in the martial arts world.

But he was attacked by pirates just one day after leaving the island. This feeling was not very pleasant.

"Die!" A pirate laughed grimly and slashed a merchant sailor's neck with a knife. Blood splattered and the sailor was obviously dead.

The pirate was feeling proud when he saw a flash of green light and a sword as fast as lightning stabbed him in the throat!
"You... Hehe!" The pirate gripped his neck tightly, trying to stop the blood from flowing out, but it was useless. After a while, he fell to the ground and died on the spot.

"He who kills others will be killed!" Fang Hao said with emotion.

Next, a green figure was seen shuttling across the battlefield. Every time he drew his sword, it was as fast as lightning and he always managed to take the life of a pirate.

Every time he killed a pirate, Fang Hao would immediately withdraw and not give the other side a chance to surround him.

He knew very well that although the martial arts of the people fighting on the field were far inferior to his own, swords and guns were blind and his life was only to be lost, so it was better to be cautious.

"Boom!"

The ship of the Haisha Gang pirates finally rammed into the merchant ship. More and more pirates rushed forward through the collision point, doubling the pressure on the captain of the merchant ship.

During the stalemate, a tall figure was seen swinging down suddenly with the help of a long rope on the mast.

"brush!"

With a swipe of his sword, the captain's head was chopped off by this man!
Then, the man threw the captain's head hard onto the deck and asked, "Who else?"

"Boss Lei is here!"

"Well done, Boss Lei is mighty!"

After this man showed up, the pirates from the Haisha Gang at the scene became as energized as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and their momentum was overwhelming.

On the other hand, the situation on the merchant ship collapsed instantly because the captain was killed.

Lei Gun, the "Sword-wielding Butcher", is the third leader of the Haisha Gang. He is famous for his wave-breaking swordsmanship. In the martial arts world, he is a master on the same level as the "Seven Freaks of Jiangnan", and should not be underestimated.

Seeing that the situation on the merchant ship's side was precarious, everyone knew that when the nest is overturned, how could the eggs remain intact?

Then, among the merchants, a middle-aged man with a noble demeanor stepped forward.

He said in a loud voice: "Everyone, the Haisha Gang is vicious and has killed countless people. If we don't resist, we will all die here!"

When everyone heard this, they all perked up and continued to fight back.

The two guards beside the middle-aged man also had good swordsmanship. They killed several pirates in a row, which greatly boosted the morale of the merchant ship.

The situation, which had been finally resolved, was now in a stalemate again. With such a big commotion on the river, the imperial officials and soldiers would arrive soon.

Lei Gun's pupils shrank, and he said murderously: "You're looking for death!"

He took big strides and leaps, and came in front of the noble merchant.

The big knife in his hand slashed horizontally, and before the blade arrived, there was a gust of wind, which showed how powerful the force of the knife was.

The two guards beside the noble merchant saw this, one of them blocked with a sword, and the other stabbed with a sword from the lower right corner, pointing directly at Lei Gun's heart.

"I've been fooled!" It turned out that Lei Gun's knife attack was just a feint.

He paused, retreated quickly, and swung his left hand, throwing several caltrops shining with cold light at one of the guards.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

The guard's reaction was not slow. He immediately changed his tactics and blocked with the sword, but he was still scratched by a caltrop.

Seeing the skin at the wound turning blue and black, the guard's expression changed drastically, and he pressed several major acupoints near the wound.

At the same time, he said hatefully: "The hidden weapon is poisonous! You are so despicable!"

"Haha! I'm a notorious bandit, so I'll do whatever it takes to kill someone. But you, I think, are just being dogs for rich people, you must have become stupid!" Lei Gun laughed wildly and attacked another guard with a knife.

"Ding!"

The swords collided with each other, making a crisp sound. The other guard retreated three steps, obviously not as strong as Lei Gun.

I'll kill you while you're sick!
Lei Gun had been in battle for a long time, so he naturally understood this principle well. With a series of attacks, he forced the guard to retreat step by step and was in danger.

"Go to hell!" Lei Gun roared and swung his sword so fast and fiercely that it was unstoppable.

Just as the guard was about to be killed by his sword, he heard a "clang" sound and saw a sword light approaching!

"Who attacked me by surprise!" Lei Gun was furious.

In response to him, there was a surging green light, and the sword flowers were like fallen petals, scattering in all directions, dazzling the eyes!
Falling Flower Sword——A riot of colour!
The one who took action was naturally Fang Hao, who had been hiding aside and watching the battle for a long time!
In such a hurry, Lei Gun couldn't tell which of the sword lights were real and which were fake, so he could only dance wildly with his long sword to protect himself.

"Stab!"

With Fang Hao's careful planning, the sword finally broke through Lei Gun's defense easily and pierced his heart.

"You are so... despicable!" He was clearly an expert in swordsmanship, but he chose to use such assassination methods. Lei Gun could not rest in peace until he died.

"As long as it can kill people, we will naturally do everything we can. That's what you said." Fang Hao said leisurely.

Lei Gun's eyes widened with anger, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound. Then he fell straight to the ground and died instantly.

Lei Gun, the "slayer with a wielding sword" who had killed countless people and roamed the sea for more than ten years, died miserably at the hands of Fang Hao.
