Chapter 101: Battle in the Sixth Realm
After fighting for dozens of times, Ah Liu felt the pressure.

He had to admit that Song Changming was better than him in both sword skills and light body agility.

The more he fought, the more he lost the upper hand.

Suddenly, Song Changming's sword energy changed, a cold wind emerged, and hundreds of ghosts came out, making him look like a ghost holding a sickle.

Ah Liu was stunned, and for a moment he couldn't keep up with Song Changming's sudden change in sword style, and was almost beheaded.

Song Changming was also very curious whether the opponent's neck could be trained to be as strong as a cast iron pillar to block his beheading blow.

After dodging it, Ah Liu was still in shock, feeling a chill in his heart, and no longer had any of the impatience he had before.

"We can't be enemies with them anymore!" Ah Liu retreated after being beaten. He grabbed two gang members and threw them towards Song Changming who was chasing him, and was about to run away.

However, when he turned around, he saw a black-maned horse raising its hooves towards him.

Immediately there stood a general as tall as an iron tower, holding a huge spear and halberd, stabbing at him.

The gun comes out like a dragon!

This shot was earth-shattering!
The leader of the Dinghai Shui Gang didn't even have time to defend himself before the bullet pierced his abdomen and lifted him into the air.

"Why are you still fighting for the kill?" Song Changming couldn't help but mutter when he saw his opponent being intercepted.

He recognized the majestic general in front of him. He was the new captain in charge of the army in Donglai County.

The fact that the captain was ordered to lead the army here in person shows that the county governor is determined to seize this port.

"You!" Ah Liu stared at the person who had severely injured him.

Chen Yan looked indifferent. He swung the spear again and smashed it hard to the ground. The spear pinned it firmly and it could not move.

The captain's gaze then fell on Song Changming not far away and he looked at him twice.

Song Changming's performance just now was enough to attract his attention.

Song Changming was also looking at the new captain.

Before this, he had only met the other party a few times in the county magistrate's mansion and had never seen him take action.

Now that I have seen him, there is no doubt that he is another incredible martial arts master.

It has to be said that among the military officers produced in this imperial capital, none are weak.

This captain, as well as Director General Zhuang Ren, have most likely reached the seventh level of body refining!

For this kind of strong people, the final completion of the ninth level of body refining does not seem to be a very far away thing.

Compared with them, Song Changming seemed much more immature.

I'm afraid the time he has spent practicing martial arts is not even a fraction of what these two people have.

Afterwards, two big leaders of the Dinghai Shui Gang also fell under the spears and swords of Zhuang Ren and the new captain, one died and the other was seriously injured.

All the leaders were defeated, and the remaining members of the Dinghai Shui Gang completely lost their ability to resist.

All of them were killed, some were injured, some knelt down to surrender, and some tried to jump into the river to escape.

In the end, out of the more than 500 members of the Dinghai Shui Gang, only a few escaped, and their lives or deaths were unknown, which basically meant that the entire army was wiped out.

On the other hand, the casualties among the patrol team and the army were not serious.

At least it was within the range that both Zhuang Ren and the captain could accept.

The next step is to clean up the battlefield.

After the bodies were looted, they were thrown directly into the river to feed the fish. The captured gang members were also searched and all their belongings were taken away.

These are nothing.

However, afterwards, the large amount of spoils found in the seven gang ships and the gang stronghold caused some disputes and quarrels between Zhuang Ren and the captain, who had been relatively friendly.

Song Changming was watching from a distance and could understand it.

There were several large boxes of money, plus a pile of goods and food that had not yet been processed, as well as weapons and equipment.

The total value of these spoils is at least over ten thousand silvers!

This is a rough estimate before the inventory of the goods and boxes of coins is completed.

The true value will only be more than Song Changming’s estimation!

In theory, all these spoils should be handed over to the county governor's office, including the ships, which will also be confiscated.

But there is still a lot of money to be made in this process.

That was why neither Zhuang Ren nor the captain were in a hurry to count the spoils and make a list, but instead were arguing about who would be in charge of transporting the spoils back to the county town.

There are considerable interests involved, so neither of the two bosses is willing to give up.

Song Changming had been an official in the government for many years and was no longer surprised by such things.

In this world, most people are pursuing fame and fortune. No matter how high their position or how strong their martial arts skills are, they are not immune to this.

This was the case with the director-general and the new captain from the imperial capital, and it was much the same with Xie Shihuan and Fan Yun before him.

There are very few people with truly noble character and who are indifferent to fame and fortune. Song Changming has rarely seen such a person throughout the year.

He himself is no exception and also pursues fame and fortune.

Imagine if all these spoils belonged to him, he would have no problem eating all the wild ginseng of 100 years old, and he would have no problem getting a new one every month. By then, his martial arts skills would surely improve by leaps and bounds, year after year.

But unfortunately, this is just a fantasy. This pile of goods and money was kept by the Dinghai Shui Gang and guarded by a group of people. Now that they have become trophies, more people are eyeing to get a piece of the pie.

The most he could get was a share of the profits and a small profit for his hard work in killing enemies on missions, but he didn't expect to get more.

On the other hand, after a symbolic dispute, Zhuang Ren and the captain unsurprisingly took a step back and jointly took charge of the proceeds.

We should all share the benefits and there is no need to fight over them anymore.

After the deal was settled, Zhuang Rencai asked his personal guards to begin counting the spoils, and the captain also sent people to supervise them to prevent any omissions.

The scene was quite harmonious.

After this battle, the entire port area was back under the control of the government.

The patrol guards and soldiers dispersed and guarded the various docks. If the Dinghai Sea Gang dared to come again, they would receive the news at the first time.

Song Changming had some free time and nothing to do, so he went to the fish market.

The big fight that broke out between the Dinghai Sea Gang and the government early in the morning did not affect the fishing market thereafter.

Many local fishermen were used to strong winds and waves. After learning that the Dinghai Shui Gang had been driven away by the government again, they began to follow the rules set by the government.

If the Dinghai Water Gang returns and dominates the port's water transportation, they will follow the rules of the underworld gangs again.

This can't be considered as changing with the wind, it's just their way of survival. They don't want to offend either side and just listen to whoever is in power.

The scale of the fish market at the port is actually not small. Although it is called a fish market, it also sells many other rare and exotic aquatic products of various kinds.

Fish and fresh water are only part of it. There are also many precious plants growing in the sea, as well as stone mines.

It has to be said that there are no fewer treasures in the sea than on land, and even more.

However, humans have not explored the sea as much as they have land, so the ocean still appears mysterious and extremely dangerous, making it difficult to further develop.

Only occasionally would there be wonders or rare treasures salvaged from the ocean that would astonish people.

In fact, in addition to the local fishermen and villagers, there are also many vendors from Donglai County who come here to buy all kinds of aquatic goods they need, and then transport them back to various counties to sell in their stores.

Therefore, in the morning, the fish market is already quite lively with a large flow of people.

Song Changming was wearing the official uniform of the Chief Patrol Officer, which attracted the attention of many people along the way, and they all looked at him with awe.

Some people would hastily avoid looking at Song Changming, for fear of offending the patrol chief and being arrested as a suspect.

This is the deterrent effect of official uniforms on ordinary people, which can also be called power.

Song Changming didn't care about other people's eyes and his gaze fell on the stalls on both sides.

Some sellers pull their own wooden carts and put the goods on the carts for sale.

Some sellers simply spread out their goods on the ground, sit cross-legged and wait for buyers to come.

Song Changming looked past the ordinary fish, shrimp and other aquatic products. It was a rare opportunity for him to come here. As the largest port of call in Donglai County, he naturally wanted to see something unusual.

"Hornfish, wow, there's a silver hornfish!"

"Tsk, brother, you are so lucky."

"."

Song Changming suddenly heard some heated discussions and looked in the direction of the sounds.

There was a stall in front of me, and there were many onlookers.

Song Changming walked closer and saw that the stall owner was holding a large fish with black scales in both hands.

The big fish was about one meter long, with a broad body, and probably weighed more than thirty kilograms.

The most unique thing is that it has a silver horn on its head that looks like a drill, and its eyes are also silver.

There is no doubt that this must be a species of fish with alien blood, different from ordinary fish.

The stall owner was holding the fish, his rough, black face full of wrinkles, and his smiling face looked like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Undoubtedly, the stall owner is quite happy today.

He only needs to sell the fish in his hand, and today's turnover will reach the target, and he can also make a small fortune.

How could this not make him happy.

"Brother, how heavy is this silver horn fish?" someone asked.

"Twenty-nine pounds and four ounces." The stall owner replied. Although this amount is not too big for a carp, it can still be sold at a good price.

"Two hundred copper coins per pound. I'll take it." A vendor quoted the price directly, which was slightly higher than the market price.

The stall owner was immediately attracted.

At the price of two hundred coins per catty, a silver-horned fish like this could be sold for nearly six strings of copper coins, which was definitely a big profit for him.

You should know that on the market, the normal price of beef and mutton is only fifty or sixty copper coins per pound.

In comparison, the reason why the meat of the silver horn fish can be sold at such a high price is mainly because it has special blood. It is not only delicious, but also a top-quality ingredient on the wine table. Its nutritional value is also extremely high.

For warriors, this is a delicious and nutritious medicinal food, which is very helpful for physical training.
