Chapter 81 Save Your Life

Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun, two brothers, grew up in Jiangzhou since childhood.

If they followed the original trajectory, they would become local tyrants, waiting for the arrival of a certain Brother Song.

But a few years ago, a new governor came to Jiangzhou.

This man wrote good poems and called himself Jiaxuan Jushi, and was called Xin Qiji.

Originally.

Zhang Heng and his brother thought that the other party was just like the governors in the past, a straw official who only knew how to plunder the people and recite poems for fun.

But they didn't expect it!

The other party was a literati, but he was extremely fierce!

The bandits in Jiangzhou were swept away in less than three months after the other party took office.

At the same time, he governed the people of Jiangzhou to live and work in peace and contentment, and almost no one picked up things on the road!

The Mu brothers, who were local tyrants like the Zhang brothers, admired each other very much and served under the other party as a captain.

The two brothers Zhang Heng did not want to work under the governor. After hearing that they could make money by running a sea trade, they gathered a group of people and planned to come to Jinling to try their luck.

However, the two brothers were really unlucky.

They encountered a storm on the day they went out to sea. Only the two brothers of the Zhang family swam back to the shore because they were good at swimming.

All the fellow villagers who followed the two brothers to make a living were drowned.

"Here is 360 taels of silver. Send our brothers' bodies back to Jiangzhou!"

Zhang Heng handed a bag of silver to the group of men in brown short shirts in front of him with a cold face.

"Haha, we mountain travelers will never break our promises after receiving money. We will definitely send it back if we say we will!"

The leading man who claimed to be a mountain traveler weighed the weight of the money bag in his hand and smiled.

The so-called mountain travelers are mostly men from the mountains.

These people often carry a lot of local products to sell in the city.

Over time, some mountain travelers also became traveling merchants.

This group of mountain travelers came from Jiangzhou.

Now Zhang Heng and his brother asked them to send back the relics and bones of their fellow townsman, so that they could return to their roots.

"Humph." Zhang Heng didn't care, and said in a semi-threatening tone, "If someone knows that you took the money but didn't do the job, don't blame me for coming to collect the debt."

"You...!"

Some of the mountain travelers were dissatisfied with Zhang Heng's attitude and were about to go forward to argue.

The leading man stopped his men and indicated that he had taken note of Zhang Heng's words.

"Second brother, let's go."

Zhang Heng didn't even look at the group of mountain travelers, he called his younger brother and left.

Only the man who was still playing with the silver bag looked at the two men's backs as they left.

"Brother! This ball is too arrogant, he deserves to be beaten, why are you stopping us?"

"Humph, those two guys are not easy to mess with!" The man called the eldest brother glared at the unhappy younger brother.

"You haven't been to Jieyang, haven't you heard of the names of Zhang Heng, the boatman, and Zhang Shun, the white shark in the waves?!"

"What?! Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun are actually these two people, no wonder they can survive under the Dragon King!" I was immediately scared and sweated coldly.

"Get on board, get on board!"

The Jinling dock is very lively today.

Although Xue Ke sold most of his property and dispersed a small part to recruit sailors, he still has hundreds of thousands of family assets left.

These three large ships are all filled by Xue Ke and his family.

"Boss Xue, we are willing to follow you to the capital!"

Seeing that these servants who have followed him for several years are unwilling to leave, Xue Ke is in a good mood.

This time he went to the capital to establish a family business again, and it would be more convenient to have these servants as helpers.

Her sister Xue Baoqin also went with him, and she also brought her trusted maid to accompany her on this trip.

"Miss, the waves on the ship are strong, you should go back to the cabin." The maid Xiaoyu used her sleeves to block the sea breeze and said worriedly.

Xue Baoqin shook her head and looked at the streets of Jinling where she grew up, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

The Xue family had three large ships on this trip, one was for servants, one was full of property, and the other was for sailors recruited by Xue Ke.

These three hundred strong and powerful sailors were basking in the sun on the deck, bored.

Xue Ke stood at the stern, looking at something.

The servant standing by shook his head and said firmly: "Master Xue, those two will not come!"

This person was the servant when recruiting Zhang Heng and his brother that day.

With such a big battle today, if he really wanted to come, he should have arrived long ago. How could he not see any figure even when the auspicious time has arrived?

Xue Ke sighed, thinking that he should not have misjudged the person.

He just thought that the other two were delayed by something.

"Well, let's set off."

"Yes, Master Xue!" The servant responded, turned around and shouted to the crew: "Let's go! Let's go, be careful to avoid!"

In this way, the three large ships went north along the canal and headed straight for the capital.

It took about half an hour.

Xue Ke called the servant and asked him to summon all the sailors to the deck.

"Boss."

"Boss."

These sailors had a good impression of Xue Ke, a generous customer, and their words were quite respectful.

Seeing this, Xue Ke nodded with satisfaction.

But he was not there.

Among the sailors, there were a dozen men with fierce eyes, whispering and plotting something.

Xue Ke didn't notice it at all, and began to narrate the next itinerary.

"We are next..."

"Someone!"

Suddenly, a servant at the bow exclaimed.

"Huh?"

Xue Ke was startled, and then heard some movement from the side of the ship.

And then.

Two figures grabbed the edge of the ship, jumped up with a roar, and landed lightly on the deck of the ship.

The visitors were none other than brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun.

Xue Biao was naturally shocked by the way these two brothers appeared.

"hey-hey."

Zhang Heng held a sharp-edged fish knife in his hand, dripping water all over his body, and said with a strange smile on his face, "My two brothers are here."

Xue Biao was dumbfounded by this scene. He cupped his fists and bowed and said, "You two good men, but a certain family didn't tell you two clearly about the sailing time."

Seeing that Xue Biao's attitude remained the same, Zhang Shun looked at him with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Okay, just blame my boss for your attitude towards my two brothers today, and I will save your life!"

Zhang Heng suddenly said something that made Xue Biao confused.

brush!

The fish knife that was thrown out by him plunged straight into the heart of the group of sailors and the red-eyed man.

This scene.

Xue Tadou's eyes widened in shock.

Even the group of sailors were startled and stepped back.

"Why are you killing people indiscriminately?" A sailor immediately asked, cursing.

"Second brother, do it!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shun also took out a sharp disemboweling knife and strode towards the dozen or so people who were standing there in a daze.

Phew!

I wiped a man's neck with my hand.

"Mom, I have some ideas, let's do it together!"

Someone among the dozen or so people with fierce eyes screamed strangely, then raised their fist and hit Zhang Shun in the face.

But he didn't expect this figure to be as smooth as a loach, so he could grab the opponent's arm and twist it.

Click!

Just hearing a scream, the man fell to the ground and rolled over, covering his hands.

"Pooh."

Zhang Shun spat at the other person and then killed him with a knife.

The two Zhang brothers were extremely ferocious. They killed most of the dozen or so people with two knives.

Seeing the two brothers approaching like murderous gods, the remaining people were frightened. Their hands shook and they sifted through the chaff, and they quickly knelt down to beg for mercy. "Hero, hero, spare your life!"

Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun sneered when they saw this.

Then he also put away the knife, shook the blood all over his body, and then came to Xue Biao.
