"Bump"

Two gorgeous fireworks exploded over the dark West Lake, colorful and dazzling.

Zhang Mu looked up at the fireworks in the sky, illuminating his slightly tender cheeks. At this moment, a strong smile appeared on his face.

At this time, looking into the distance from the lake, you can see about a dozen pleasure boats and five or six large ships slowly moving towards "Xiao Yingzhou".

These ships had long been ambushing the West Lake, and they were waiting for this signal.

Looking at the brightly lit reinforcements, Zhang Mu said, "It's good that we brothers will watch the show today."

The Jinyiwei, who followed Zhang Mu, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw the ethereal martial arts just now, everyone was sweating in their hearts.

If you really rush up to fight, you may not be able to escape unscathed.

Especially the island has vast trees, buildings and complex terrain, so it is not that easy to catch the bald donkey.

"Let's go to the dock." Zhang Mu waved his hand and immediately took his men to the dock.

When they arrived at the dock, the boats had already landed. Groups of soldiers rushed down from the boat, and for a moment they lit up the sky.

The person who led the lead was a young man, who was only about thirty years old, wearing armor all over his body, and looked very majestic against the backdrop of the fire.

He pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword and walked to Zhang Mu. Zhang Mu saluted and said, "Mr. Geng, the thief is on the island. I have burned the boat and just happened to catch the turtle in the jar."

This Lord Geng is Geng Rui, the son of Changxing Hou Geng Bingwen, and the husband of the Princess of Jiangdu. He is now the commander-in-chief of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and is a second-rank official.

Geng Rui smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang is indeed a brilliant plan, and I admire him."

"The trick of the devil is not worth mentioning. At present, there are only a few people on the other side. My business is over. Let's see Lord Geng show his power next." Zhang Mu smiled.

When Geng Rui heard this, his face became even more smiling. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Mu more, and said to himself: "This kid is really shocked. At such a young age, he knows to win people's hearts." He waved his hand and said: "Look carefully for me, prepare a strong bow and hard crossbow. If the enemy dares to resist, kill him without any hesitation."

At that moment, several of his subordinates rushed out with their men.

At this moment, those pleasure boats and large boats slowly surrounded Xiaoyingzhou.

From a distance, Xiaoyingzhou was filled with torches, densely packed, like stars in the sky, and the sound of people was buzzing.

The officers and soldiers began a carpet-style search.

Zhang Mu saw a brief look that there were about 3,000 people coming this time, and they brought bows, crossbows and even muskets. These were all elite soldiers of the Hangzhou garrison. Even if Kong Ling and Fang Rui were gods, they would still be unable to fly.

"Mr. Zhang, let them find it first. Let's get on the boat and have a cup of tea. After waiting all night, my butt hurts." Geng Rui smiled.

Geng Rui was born in a military general and had a straightforward personality.

He completely ignored his superiors and subordinates and boarded the boat with Zhang Mu's shoulders.

Zhang Mu also wanted to give him this credit. Zhang Mu knew in his heart that Geng Rui was a descendant of his merits, and now he is the imperial relative. He sold him a credit and made a personal favor.

Because, next time, I have to go to Wenzhou to deal with the corrupt guard officers and Japanese pirates, and there are still many things to rely on him.

Even if it is not for this, going to Nanjing in the future is now a foregone conclusion, and it will not be a bad thing after making some contributions.

No matter how you look at it, there is no loss in this transaction.

Besides, even if Geng Rui caught Chongling and wrote memorials for Lao Zhu, would he not mention himself a word?

As long as he mentioned it, the credit will be made, and there are favors inside and outside, and it will be free to give it to you. Besides, it will save your own people from taking risks, so why not do it?

Zhang Mu understood very well that the officialdom is about pursuing his political ideals, which is a necessary means.

But Xingling and Fang Rui who were escaping from their lives were not as leisurely as Zhang Mu.

The three of them rushed out of the bamboo forest at the same time. Zen Master Kongling brought a total of five people, and now he is the only one left.

Fang Rui led four people, and only one escaped with him.

The three of them left the bamboo forest and looked at each other. After Yingling didn't say anything, she rushed towards Fang Rui and said angrily: "I will kill you first."

Fang Rui flashed, stabilized his body and shouted hurriedly: "Stop, I'm also fooled. I was fooled by that boy Zhang Mu."

Eagle sneered: "Stop talking sweet words to me."

Fang Rui shouted: "That shameless woman betrayed my teachings. Look, two of my brothers died."

The Chongling was willing to listen to him and came to his chest with a palm.

At this time, fireworks suddenly bloomed in the sky, and the dark lake surface was instantly colorful.

Empty was shocked. This is not during festivals. How could there be fireworks on West Lake? This must be the enemy's secret code.

"What you said is true?" Zen Master Kongling grabbed Fang Rui's neckline and asked.

"Nonsense, Zhang Mu must have ambushed the elite soldiers. He wished we could kill each other. It was now, what's the use of killing me? Escape is the main thing." Fang Rui shouted.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of a child." After saying that, he let go and said, "Let's go."

At that moment, they rushed across the Pantheon to see if there were ships there.

As a result, as soon as I saw the dock, I saw a large ship with bright lights coming, and quickly turned around and left.

None of these three people are native to Hangzhou and are not familiar with Xiaoyingzhou. They only know that they are an isolated island.

It's really hard to fly around the lake.

"What should I do now?" Fang Rui asked in panic.

Zen Master Yingling looked around blankly, and it was all black in the middle of the night, completely catching black.

Yingling knew that at this time the officers and soldiers should have already gotten off the ship. After searching for this overwhelming amount, they must be caught.

It mainly falls into the hands of the government, and this life is considered an explanation.

He pondered for a moment and said, "There is only one way now. This little Yingzhou is surrounded by lakes, and they will definitely be surrounded by them. Even if you and I are good at water, they can't swim on the other side. Besides, they found it in the water and didn't even have the chance to fight back. If you want to survive, you can only catch Zhang Mu."

Fang Rui shook his head and said, "If Zhang Mu can set up this game, he will be prepared for a long time. If the other party brings a crossbow, we will not be able to rush over at all."

"Then do you believe in me?" asked Zen Master Kongling.

"At this time, we are grasshoppers on a rope. We can't escape me or jump into you. I don't believe in you, who will believe in?" Fang Rui said.

"In this way, I will tie me up later and escort me to find Zhang Mu. He will definitely come here to check it out in person. At this time, I broke the rope. With the skills of the monk, he will be doomed within ten steps." Yingling said viciously.

Fang Rui's eyes lit up and he nodded, "This is indeed a good idea. But what if he sees it through?"

"Everyone and the left and right die, and you can't see through it and fight. It's better than being besieged and dead under arrows in a while." Kongling said.

"Okay, just do what you said." Fang Rui gritted his teeth.

Eagle took a deep breath and shouted, "Give me your knife."

Fang Rui handed him the steel knife, took it over, and stabbed it into his right shoulder with a knife. After pulling out the steel knife, blood was sprayed, all over his body, and he gritted his teeth in ethereal, and his head was sweating profusely.
