Chapter 78(1/2)
Begging for collection, red ticket...

As soon as he entered the door, Li Yuanqing winked at Zhang Dongcheng and quietly waved to Guan Canghai and Duan Xiliang behind him.
Zhang Dongcheng understood, and suddenly turned to Master Qi with a smile: "By the way, Master Qi, what's going on with Master Long above? Is the banquet almost over?"
When Master Qi heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little impatient. Just as he was about to speak, suddenly a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him. In a flash of light and shadow in his hand, a bloody gash several inches long appeared on Master Qi's neck. The blood stopped.
It keeps tumbling outwards.
He wanted to scream desperately, but unfortunately, a big hand behind his back had tightly covered his mouth. He could only feel his blood spurting out of his veins desperately.
Seeing Guan Canghai succeed, Li Yuanqing pulled out the steel knife from his waist and said, "Do it."
After a moment, Guan Canghai, Duan Xiliang and Zhang Dongcheng took the lead, leading a dozen soldiers, and turned around to kill the dozen pirate guards in the city gate.
At this time, Li Yuanqing's follow-up troops were still walking towards the city gate. These guards were busy greeting the people below. How could they expect that they would suddenly become enemies behind them?
It was almost midnight, and the night was really deep. The guards were not happy with the night shift today. They were already exhausted. They had no time to react to the sudden changes.
In the blink of an eye, there were already many dead and wounded.
The soldiers who took action were all the most elite under Li Yuanqing's command. They were all highly skilled in martial arts and did not hold back at all. The battle only lasted less than a minute, and the whole world had quieted down.
But Zhang Dongcheng was still not at ease, and ordered each of the corpses to be stabbed. Then he nodded to Li Yuanqing, "Sir, you can use our people to guard this door. This is the last main entrance in the village. If you go further,
It’s nothing to worry about.”
Li Yuanqing nodded, waved his hand to a soldier, and ordered him to lead ten people to stay at the gate. He also ordered Wang Hai and Shunzi to clean up the battlefield and stuff the bodies into the drainage channel behind the city gate.
From start to finish, the entire event did not last for minutes.
Zhang Dongcheng took out a basin of ice water from the drainage channel next to him, washed the bluestone steps at the door vigorously, and then said to Li Yuanqing: "Master, let's go up."
Li Yuanqing smiled. Dongcheng was worthy of being a pirate and was indeed careful in his work. He nodded and said, "Let's go."
Soon, the team packed up their equipment and continued walking to the top of the mountain.
This hill is not too high, nor is it very steep, but the other sides of the mountain on the island are rocks. Only this side has a road, which allows people to climb up. Although it is not dangerous, it has natural advantages.
If in normal times, a team like Li Yuanqing would come up the mountain in the middle of the night, it would be absolutely impossible, and Li Jiaolong was not a fool.
But today happened to be the day of the big banquet. Basically, all the leaders at all levels were invited by Li Jiaolong to have a drink on the mountain. The entire defense system was at its most lax, and with Zhang Dongcheng, an acquaintance, as an internal agent, things became complicated.
Much simpler.
Soon, Li Yuanqing and his party had arrived at the top of the mountain and outside the mountain gate.
The mountain gate happened to be a cave-in, and there was a huge rock next to it. Taking advantage of this natural barrier, the pirates only built a simple wooden door.
There seemed to be no leader guarding this gate, only two or three men. Zhang Dongcheng took two men up and said a few words, then subdued them and threw them directly into the sea behind the rocks.
Zhang Dongcheng explored again, turned around and nodded to Li Yuanqing, indicating that he could move on.
Li Yuanqing nodded and asked Wang Hai to lead five people to guard the gate, then led the main force directly into the village.
From the gate of the village, it was a bit ridiculous for Li Jiaolong to call this place a 'temporary palace', but when he reached the top of the mountain, Li Yuanqing realized that it really looked like a palace.
However, it does not look like a royal palace, but like a folk Dragon King Temple.
When we came to the gate of the courtyard wall, the gate was open and there was no guard at all. Inside the gatehouse, the lights were on, and we could clearly hear the sound of several people making fists.
Zhang Dongcheng said in a low voice: "Sir, I will deal with this place first."
Li Yuanqing nodded and waved his hand to Shunzi to bring a few people to help.
The firelight in the porter's room flickered a few times, then it soon became quiet.
Zhang Dongcheng walked out quickly and whispered: "Sir, if you go further in, you will find the main hall. Li Jiaolong and the others are inside."
Li Yuanqing was well prepared and winked at Shang Laoliu and Guan Canghai. The two understood each other and each took a dozen people with them and hid in the darkness on both sides.
Li Yuanqing said to Zhang Dongcheng again: "Dongcheng, you should be the first to win this battle."
Zhang Dongcheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Master, come with me."
In a moment, Zhang Dongcheng, Duan Xiliang, and 5 or 60 people from Li Yuanqing's headquarters each showed their weapons and rushed towards the main hall.
At this time, the banquet in the main hall was coming to an end. Li Jiaolong and all the leaders had almost finished drinking. Li Jiaolong still wanted to say something, but unfortunately, his tongue was already a little big.
He picked up the wine glass and stood up unsteadily. Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
In a moment, dozens of big men rushed in, killing everyone they saw without any explanation.
Li Jiaolong was shocked, and he almost woke up from the drunkenness. He hurriedly shouted: "You, who are you? Bastards. Are you going to rebel?"
But these big men didn't speak at all, they just killed everyone they met.
The dozen or so little pirate leaders who were standing at the door were stunned in an instant. Before they knew what was going on, they were chopped into pieces.
Most of the drunkenness of the several big pirate leaders inside had dissipated in an instant. One of them couldn't help but shouted to Li Jiaolong: "Master, what do you mean? This is the Hongmen Banquet."
Another person also shouted: "That stupid Li Jiaolong is not a thing. He wants to eat us. Brothers, fight with him."
As they spoke, they rushed towards Li Jiaolong.
Unfortunately, they have no weapons.
But even so, Li Jiaolong was scared to death and quickly explained, "Brothers, it's not like this. It's not like this."
But before he could finish his words, several big pirate leaders had already rushed towards him, so he had to run back and look for weapons to resist.
Li Yuanqing strode into the hall and couldn't help but smile, the overall situation was decided.
Soon, Zhang Dongcheng and Duan Xiliang had led people to surround Li Jiaolong and several big pirate leaders.
Only then did these people react.
Li Jiaolong glared at Zhang Dongcheng fiercely, "Are you the one who's so stupid?"
Zhang Dongcheng sneered slightly, "Master, I'm sorry. Today is the day you die."
As he spoke, Zhang Dongcheng suddenly swung his sword and struck Li Jiaolong in the face.
Li Jiaolong was already desperate. He couldn't escape at all and just laughed loudly.
"Wait a minute." At this time, a steel knife stretched out from the side, and with a 'stab' sound, it blocked Zhang Dongcheng's knife, and it was Guan Canghai who rushed over.
"Dongcheng, don't worry." Guan Canghai strode to Li Jiaolong, "Brother Black Bear, are you okay?"
Li Jiaolong originally thought that he would die, but unexpectedly, there was a turning point at the last moment. When he saw Guan Canghai's face clearly, he couldn't help but be startled, "Guan Canghai, you, are you still alive?"
Guan Canghai couldn't help but smile, "You're not dead yet, how could I die?"
Zhang Dongcheng whispered: "Brother Canghai, there are nearly a thousand people below, we must cut through the mess quickly."
Guan Canghai smiled and said, "Don't panic. I know this well."
With that said, he quickly came to Li Yuanqing's side and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Li Yuanqing frowned, but relaxed instantly and said with a smile: "Canghai, you are familiar with this matter, you can arrange it."
Guan Canghai couldn't help but be overjoyed, nodded quickly, came to Li Jiaolong quickly, lifted him up, and whispered a few words into his ear.
Li Jiaolong couldn't help being furious, but for a moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength and nodded helplessly.
…………
The sky was getting brighter, and there were already more than a hundred corpses placed in the main hall. In the entire Heidao Village, almost all the leaders, big and small, starting from the bandit leader Li Jiaolong, were in the pile of corpses.
Guan Canghai's method was very simple and crude, but more importantly, it was a little bloody.
He used Li Jiaolong's name to lure all the drunken bosses into the hall, leaving no one behind.
At this time, the entire Heidao Village had been drained of its skeleton and completely fell into Li Yuanqing's control.
Seeing Li Yuanqing sitting on his former throne, Li Jiaolong couldn't help but turn pale. He never dreamed that in Dengzhou, someone would dare to "take advantage of others" against him.
At this time, Shunzi came in and reported, "Sir, the people on the island have been gathered together, and those who dare to resist have been dealt with."
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Li Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Brothers, thank you for your hard work. However, this is not the time to relax yet. Continue to remain vigilant."
"Yes." Shunzi hurriedly left.
Li Yuanqing stood up, smiled and said to several people in the hall: "It's not a big deal if we keep being among the dead. Let's move faster."
With that said, Li Yuanqing turned and looked at Li Jiaolong, "You are also a man, what a pity."
Li Jiaolong hurriedly kowtowed with all his strength, "Master, Master, please spare the life of the black bear. The black bear is willing to work as an ox or a horse to repay your kindness."
Li Yuanqing nodded, but actually walked past Li Jiaolong.
For a moment, Guan Canghai and Zhang Dongcheng each stabbed Li Jiaolong's body forward and backward, one after the other.
When he walked out of the door, the smell of blood disappeared, and he breathed in the fresh sea air in the morning, Li Yuanqing's spirit was also lifted.
Guan Canghai came to Li Yuanqing and said, "Sir, this Li Jiaolong is also a talent. It's a pity."
Li Yuanqing let out a long breath, "Yes. So what can we do? He chose this path himself. Follow-up matters should be dealt with as soon as possible. Brothers have been working hard for more than ten days, and it's time to take a good rest.
.”
"Yes." Guan Canghai hurriedly left.
