Chapter 308: Frozen Sculpture
The man thought very clearly. They had previously performed meritorious service on the insect-killing battlefield with Shu Xingbei. Based on this, he was already qualified to settle in Lingfeng Hall.
In this case, why should we follow Shu Xingbei to some grass-leaf island?
The reason for hesitation was actually that he was pretending on purpose.
Not only him, but also the remaining ten people were all like this.
Shu Xingbei had already seen their plan. For such a person, even if he changed his mind later and wanted to defect to him again, he would not let him go.
"You dozen or so, just leave now," Shu Xingbei waved his hand impatiently.
"What do you mean?" The seemingly honest man became even more dissatisfied.
"Our squadron has something to discuss, what is the purpose of staying here?" Shu Xingbei sneered.
"Okay, let's go," the man was also a team leader. The remaining ten people were also members of his team.
With a wave of his hand, the ten people followed him and left. Lingfengtang did not arrange anyone to come over to receive them. For a time, these ten people really had nowhere to go.
"Let's form a team first and join Captain Gao when the time comes," the man named Lu comforted his subordinates.
Shu Xingbei ignored that group of people, but said to the remaining ninety or so people: "Lingfengtang asked me to complete a task. Now, everyone will move forward with me, and then listen to my orders. I will stop." , you should not continue to move forward. Everything must be done according to the orders and prohibitions, and those who disobey orders will be expelled from the line."
"Yes," the remaining ninety-three people have chosen to leave their fate in Shu Xingbei's hands. Of course, everything will be subject to what Shu Xingbei said.
So the squadron walked towards Hanhu Lake.
The man surnamed Lu looked at it from a distance. He was confused at first, and then he guessed something and sneered, "Look, it was all my choice, right? If you follow Nie Qingyun, I'm afraid you will become cannon fodder soon." .”
The ten people were not stupid. Of course, they understood that Shu Xingbei and the others must be on a mission when they went to the bank of the cold lake. They were all very happy.
As Shu Xingbei and the others got closer and closer to Han Lake, Gao Kuan was also sent out by Ling Wei, leading a team of men and horses and carrying three speedboats over.
"Captain Gao," the man named Lu was about to defect to Gao Kuan. When he saw Gao Kuan approaching, he was overjoyed and hurried over to express his goodwill.
"Who are you?" Gao Kuan glanced at him impatiently.
"That's it. Nie Qingyun doesn't know how high the sky is. He wants to form his own team. We don't want to follow him. We want to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side and return to the command of Captain Gao," said the man surnamed Lu, kneeling on one knee to show his allegiance.
When the ten people saw such a scene, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Like this, they might as well follow Nie Qingyun, at least they don't have to kneel down.
"What are you still waiting for? Why don't you kneel down in front of Captain Gao quickly?" the man surnamed Lu yelled.
Ten people had to bow their heads and knelt down.
Gao Kuan was too lazy to pay attention to these people, but he suddenly thought of an idea, nodded and said: "In this case, then you can just follow me."
"Yes," the man surnamed Lu beamed. Everything was a gamble. Now it seems that his gamble was successful.
"Come here," a soldier in front waved to the man named Lu.
"Hey," he ran over in a hurry.
"I wonder what your orders are?" "You guys, pick up the speedboat and let everyone take a breather." The soldier said, and he called to the soldiers carrying the speedboat in front to lower the boat and hand it over to Lu.
This team is named Hanzi.
The man surnamed Lu secretly gritted his teeth and did not dare to refuse, so he had to take the lead in person and carry one end of the bamboo pole that was used to set up the speedboat. The other few people also looked at each other and hurried over and carried the other three ends one after another.
The speedboat was thus loaded.
With eleven people, there was still one person missing to carry three speedboats. But none of Gao Kuan's men were willing to step forward to help.
The man surnamed Lu hates it so much. Unfortunately, he can only keep this hatred in his heart, "You grit your teeth, just three of you can carry it. We are close to Hanhu Lake."
Shu Xingbei has already made arrangements in front, "All of you, stand here and don't move. If there are hummingbirds flying over, one person per person, sit on them as quickly as possible, hold on tight, don't fall off. Listen clearly.
Is it done yet?”
"You heard me clearly," everyone answered quickly. The answer was an answer, and they thought they had heard wrongly.
"Attention," Shu Xingbei shouted again in a deep voice.
Some people noticed the movement here and couldn't help but sneer.
"Looks like you're going to pick lotus leaves, right? You really want to die," the company's soldiers laughed.
"Don't look at it. After a while, it will just be dry bones in the lake, nothing else."
The soldiers of the company stopped looking this way as they spoke.
As if they were right, there was sudden movement at Hanhu Lake. A group of birds flying from nowhere, a dense mass of black birds, swooped in the direction of Shu Xingbei and the others.
"Not good," the soldiers in the squadron all realized something was wrong.
Only Ye Zheng and other nine team captains remained calm.
Could it be that this is the group of hummingbirds Captain Nie mentioned?
"Haha, they are going to die, they are dead," said the man named Lu. Although he was depressed while carrying the speedboat, he still felt relieved when he saw this scene.
It doesn't matter if you suffer a little, as long as you don't die.
"Everyone mounts one, hurry up," Shu Xingbei roared.
Seeing a dense number of birds falling down, Shu Xingbei immediately rode on one of them himself. The hummingbird flapped its wings and flew high into the sky in an instant.
Ye Zheng and the others did not dare to neglect, and rode on the hummingbird one by one. More than ninety people instantly rose into the sky. Following the hummingbird, they flew towards the cold lake, flying farther and farther, until they reached the depths of the cold lake.
This scene shocked many people.
When the hummingbird flew over, everyone thought that Shu Xingbei and the others would definitely die. As a result, not only did they not die, but they flew away on the bird?
Gone? The man surnamed Lu carried the speedboat, tried hard to free one hand, and rubbed his eyes with his fingers. Is he really gone?
His expression suddenly became dull. At this time, he couldn't tell whether he was smart or stupid.
Gao Kuan was also shocked and quickly reported to Ling Wei through the communicator.
"Gone? Where are the people in his team?" Ling Wei didn't need to ask any more questions, already knowing that the picking mission was cancelled. After leaving Lingfeng Hall, would Shu Xingbei still regard picking lotus leaves as his mission?
"There are eleven people left," Gao Kuan looked at the man named Lu and others.
"Oh? Then let them take a speedboat to pick lotus leaves and lotus flowers." Ling Wei was not at all reluctant to sacrifice the slaves who came from the sea. When the man surnamed Lu heard that they were asked to take a speedboat to Hanhu Lake to pick lotus leaves and lotus flowers, his face suddenly looked like death.
Very white.
"Captain Gao, I, we are your soldiers," the man surnamed Lu immediately knelt down, as if he was pounding garlic.
"Since you have joined my army and taken care of me, it is your duty to do so. Are you coming to me just to enjoy peace and happiness?" Gao Kuan was murderous and heart-wrenching. His words left the man surnamed Lu speechless.
.
"Brothers, if you work hard, maybe we can find a future this time," the man surnamed Lu encouraged his ten people. Although what he said was so pale and weak, even he himself did not believe it.
"What are you still waiting for? Let's go," the man surnamed Lu commanded his men, carrying a speedboat and heading towards Hanhu Lake.
After a while, all eleven people boarded the speedboat. When it comes to weapons and equipment, they are far behind the seven groups of people in the company. Not to mention standard firearms, they don't even have crossbows. Each person only has a dagger.
, inserted into the side of the trouser leg.
When the company's soldiers saw someone going to Hanhu to pick again, they all stared at the speedboat with wide eyes.
Even Tian Zisheng and Hong Weiwang were no exception. Deng Ge and Cheng Lao also glanced at them, curled their lips, and then turned away and stopped looking.
Based on the strength of the company, all seven teams died in Hanhu. How could these shabby people make waves?
Song Jing and Lu Guobao also glanced at the speedboat, showing no interest.
After the man surnamed Lu boarded the speedboat, he kept telling everyone to be careful and calm, but these people were already scared out of their wits and would not listen to his nonsense.
"If I had known earlier, we should have followed Captain Nie."
"Who says it's not the case? It's because I'm blind and confused."
"What the hell, I was determined to follow Captain Nie, but this damn guy kept winking at me." The speaker glared at the man surnamed Lu.
"Stop complaining. No matter how much you talk, it won't change the situation. I hope there will be a whole body," a man said dejectedly.
The air-conditioning in Hanhu Lake was approaching. These people were all wearing shirts, and soon their faces turned purple from the cold. They didn’t care to complain or complain, and everyone’s eyes were dull. Not to mention picking lotus leaves and lotus flowers, at this time
They couldn't even muster the strength to move. It was too cold.
The man surnamed Lu raised his head sadly and looked at the blue sky. Is this God's will? Is God punishing me for betraying Nie Qingyun and defecting to Gao Kuan instead?
A line of tears flowed down his eyes. Before they could reach his cheeks, they had frozen into long ice hanging on his face.
"Hey, the speedboat just stopped moving?" There were many people on the shore paying attention to them, and soon someone noticed something unusual.
"Don't look, there's nothing to see. They didn't even have the slightest preparation, and they dared to pick it. It's really a birthday man who hanged himself because he doesn't want to live too long," someone next to him shook his head and said.
"Something's wrong, they're all dead," someone saw the people on the speedboat sitting there like sculptures, covering their mouths and gasping for air.
Ling Wei was also watching with a telescope from a distance, but he quickly withdrew his gaze.
"Hall Master Ling, did you force Shu Xingbei away? Or did he abandon you?" A playful voice sounded in Ling Wei's communicator.
