Lord, the princess is beautiful and fierce

Chapter 452

Chapter 452

In less than a cup of tea, Bai Xiuyuan and Zhou Siyi came out together.

Shi Luo didn't make any detours, and said, "Let me ask about my fourth brother's situation."

Bai Xiuyuan sat down, and then said: "I don't know the details, I only know that last night, three merchant ships including the Nanyue merchant ship were hijacked by water ghosts."

Shi Luo asked, "Are there always water ghosts on the canal?"

Bai Xiuyuan nodded: "Man dies for wealth, and birds die for food. Merchant ships are full of valuable things. Merchants are also rich, so naturally there will be water ghosts. However, there were not so many in previous years. In the past two years, due to the severe drought in Huizhou , Many refugees have become water ghosts, these people are all outlaws, they don’t care about life and death, and they are not afraid of the court, except for merchant ships with official characters, they will never let go of others.”

Shi Luo's heart sank.

Bai Xiuyuan said: "Don't worry, they are just asking for money, and they rarely hurt people's lives."

Shi Luo said: "You just said that they are a bunch of desperadoes, what if they come to kill people to silence them?"

What Shi Luo said is also right, it is not impossible.

Bai Xiuyuan said: "The imperial court has already sent someone, as long as the money is paid enough, His Highness King Yi should be fine."

What Shi Luo was worried about was whether these water ghosts would kill Xiao Yi because he was from South Vietnam.

Xiao Yi has some boxing skills, but he is a businessman, and those skills are all about punching and embroidering legs, which is not enough to be seen in front of desperadoes.

Seeing that Shi Luo was worried, Zhou Siyi said: "I know some people, I will ask them to help inquire now, and see if there is any news about King Yi."

Shi Luo nodded: "Thank you."

After Zhou Siyi left, Shi Luo didn't want to stay any longer, since Xiao Mo wasn't here, she had to discuss it with Wei Congxi.

Bai Xiuyuan said: "Don't worry, His Royal Highness King Yi has traveled all over the world for so many years, and he can handle water ghosts."

Shi Luo walked away, said goodbye and was about to leave. When he came out, Qingyan came in with two maids. Seeing Shi Luo, the two maids took a second look. Shi Luo didn't pay much attention and went out.

She went back to Nanyue Mansion and asked Lan Yu to tell Wei Congxi the news. Wei Congxi had already got the news and made arrangements, and sent a message to Shi Luo not to worry, so Shi Luo felt relieved.

At this time, Xiao Yizheng and some other businessmen were locked in a cell on a small island, with his bodyguard Xie Ming by his side, and the others got separated in the confrontation with the water ghost.

Besides Xiao Yi, there were quite a few businessmen in the cell. Everyone was terrified, tired and hungry, some were weeping softly, and some were begging the blessings of the Bodhisattva.

Xie Ming said: "Young master, my subordinates see that there is only one exit from this cell, but the door does not seem to be very strong. We will take the opportunity to escape at night."

Xiao Yi nodded: "I don't know what happened to our furniture?"

Xie Ming said speechlessly: "My lord, our lives are almost gone, are you still worried about the furniture?"

"Why don't you worry, it's all money. People are alive, and money is also a pain." Xiao Yi said.

Xie Ming shook his head helplessly, thinking, son, is your family short of this money?

It was just past noon, and Xiao Yi suddenly felt a little hungry, so he asked Xie Ming, "Do you have anything to eat?"

Xie Ming shook his head, he was a guard and what to do with food.

Xiao Yi was a little disappointed. At this time, a girl next to him handed him half a pancake: "Brother, this is for you to eat."

Xiao Yi was taken aback, and glanced sideways. The little girl was fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was not too young to say the least. Smart.

Xiao Yi took the pancake and asked, "Who are you with?"

The girl said: "With my grandfather."

After speaking, he pointed to an old man next to him, who was also eating pancakes, nodded to Xiao Yi and said, "I took my granddaughter to Lanjing to seek refuge with my son, who knew that such a thing would happen to me."

Xiao Yin's search boat was all from South Vietnam, and these two accents sounded like people from Huizhou, so they should be on another boat.

Xiao Yi took a bite of the pancake, and then asked the girl, "What's your name?"

"Yu Weixi."

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "It sounds good."

Yu Weixi said quite proudly: "My father took this for me."

Xiao Yi smiled, and chatted with the girl a few more words. In the afternoon, the cell door opened, and a few water bandits walked in. They were all vicious, and they looked fierce.

The water bandits looked around one by one, and then began to grab the women in the cell.

"let me go."

Several women resisted fiercely, and the husband of one of the women wanted to stop him, but was hacked to death by the water bandits.

The woman's eyes are red.

"I fought with you."

The woman rushed to the water bandit, but was pierced through the chest with a knife.

The accident happened too fast, and by the time people realized it, the couple had already died on the spot.

Everyone was shocked, and no one dared to move now.

Yu Weixi was also frightened, shrinking into a small ball, her body trembling slightly.

Xiao Yi stood in front of her, but was still spotted by sharp-eyed water bandits, and one of them, a bearded man with a vicious look, said, "There's another one here."

After finishing speaking, she gave a wretched smile: "The girls look pretty good."

After finishing speaking, he was going to pull Yu Weixi, Grandpa Yu said: "Strong man, my granddaughter is still young, you can let her go."

The bearded man kicked Grandpa Yu's chest: "Damn, where did you get the old stuff? Don't you know that our eldest brother likes this kind of small one? It's small and tender, and it feels good in the hand..."

Seeing his grandfather injured, Yu Weixi ran over to hug him, and stared angrily at the water bandit in front of him.

"Little beauty, go with brother, brother promises to love you well!"

Before the bearded man finished speaking, his head fell to the ground.

Everyone was stunned and looked at the bearded man who was still arrogant just now in surprise. A gangster beside him was splattered with blood and was stunned.

The rest of the gangsters looked at Xie Ming who made the attack in horror.

Where did Xie Ming give them a chance to resist, while they were stupefied, he ended up with a few stabs.

Xiao Yi was very satisfied. It seemed that spending several thousand taels a year to hire the number one swordsman in South Vietnam was the right choice.

Xiao Yi stood up and said to the terrified crowd: "The water bandits are cruel, and death deserves more than justification. When the water bandits come later, you can put the blame on me."

After finishing speaking, he planned to leave with Xie Ming. It’s not that he didn’t want to take these people with him, but he couldn’t. There are so many people with big goals, and if he went out rashly, not only would they not be able to escape, but these people would die. Xiao Yi felt that they would not kill these people.

Yu Weixi suddenly grabbed his clothes and said, "Brother, take us with you."

Xiao Yi frowned.

Grandpa Yu was seriously injured, but there was nothing wrong with it for the time being, he said, "We'll stay, Weixi may also..."

Grandpa Yu sighed: "The old man can't walk anymore, and they can't do anything to my old bones. Strong man, you can take Wei Xi with you."

Xiao Yi just hesitated for a moment, then said: "Okay."

Yu Weixi is reluctant to part with her grandfather, but she is a clear person, what her grandfather said is right, she will not only be unable to protect herself, but will also cause trouble for her grandfather, so she just hesitated for a moment, then decided to follow the person in front of her to watch The big brother who looks extraordinary.

Xie Ming doesn't approve of carrying a drag bottle, but he is a swordsman and has his integrity, let him watch the water bandits bully women, he would rather not have this life but fight them to the end.

The three came out together, and there were two water bandits outside the door, both of which were killed by Xie Ming.
