The night was as cold as water, and the sailors had already returned to the boat to rest. They could not help with matters during the night.

Zhao Meng didn't wait until it got dark and took a group of guards to lay traps around the camp.

Along the way from the Imperial City, everyone had experienced countless attacks. They were already familiar with setting up traps. In less than an hour, dozens of them were laid.

As long as the bandits on the mountain dare to attack in the middle of the night, they will never come back.

Zhao Meng and his gang wiped out almost half of the bandits they encountered on the sea during the day, and the rest all ran towards the mountains on the island.

Not to mention, Li Xiuyuan and his party also killed two bandits in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

In his opinion, these guys naturally couldn't swallow this breath, and wanted to take advantage of the night to go down the mountain to take revenge and eliminate his group here.

Otherwise, if I sail away tomorrow, these guys may never be able to leave here again unless they cut down trees and build ships.

But, can the bandits build ships?

On the vast sea, there will never be a shortage of merchant ships, and there will never be a shortage of pirates who make a living by robbing.

However, since Li Xiuyuan met him, he would not let these guys go.

This time, it is not only because of those guys who have no cultivation, but also because of those children who have not grown up.

After completing the trap, a group of guards followed Zhao Meng and went to bed early, saying they wanted to stay energetic and get up in the middle of the night to deal with the bandits.

Li Xiuyuan held a cup of hot tea, looked at Xu Fu in front of him and said, "When the fight starts, don't do anything. Just stay here."

Xu Fu was startled, looked at him and asked: "We only brought half of the guards, is that enough?"

Looking at the gloomy sky, Li Xiuyuan replied calmly: "Is it possible that they are more powerful than the Imperial City's Imperial Army? Even the Imperial Army doesn't dare to mess with us anymore."

Xu Fu chuckled, nodded and replied: "Since this island has been taken over by bandits, I guess there are no gods, so I have given up my mind."

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, looked at the dark mountain forest and said: "There is a long road for you to travel. You are already a monk, why are you anxious?"

Xu Fu was worried about the gains and losses of finding the elixir for himself.

Li Xiuyuan was thinking about whether he could win the battle quickly. After fighting the battle in front of him, it would be his last time to help these guards complete the baptism of blood and fire.

Xu Fu sighed and couldn't help but ask: "When we return to the fishing village this time, are you leaving?!"

When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he thought about his next trip, but he had no idea for a while. After much deliberation, he could only go back to the imperial city first to see if the Master and Xiao Hei were back.

She looked at him and smiled and said: "It will snow soon, and it will take a long time to recast your weapons. Just stay here this winter."

Xu Fu looked at him and smiled bitterly: "I heard from the guys that winter here is no different from autumn. This is the first time I enjoy such a climate!"

Li Xiuyuan's heart flew back to the imperial city at this moment, thinking about Zhang Liang and Xiao Hei, and thinking about the snowflakes falling in the Xianlai wine shop.

After a while, he said: "I said, you wait until next spring... I will prepare some medicine for you. When you return to the imperial city, you will be like this, like this..."

In his opinion, it was good enough that he could witness one of Xu Fu's three voyages to sea. Next, he had to let this guy go out on his own.

I have built a not too weak team for him. Even if they encounter bandits on the road, they will not be able to cause too much trouble.

Xu Fu was shocked. He didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan had thought so carefully for him, and couldn't help but sigh again and again.

Looking at him, he nodded and said softly: "You have to be careful when you go back to the imperial city alone."

Li Xiuyuan chuckled and said, "I can eat enough for one person, but the whole family is not hungry. What are you afraid of?"

When Xu Fu heard this, he immediately aroused infinite pride, patted his chest and said: "We are men, so naturally we are not afraid of encountering difficulties on the road of spiritual practice."

Li Xiuyuan nodded and explained seriously: "When you return to the Imperial City, be sure not to mention me..."

"Why, are you afraid that the king will cause trouble for you?" Xu Fu couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said quietly: "I am a person who is afraid of trouble. If you sell me, I will have to leave the imperial city. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to find me in the future."

Li Xiuyuan didn't know if he could see Xu Fu again, so he had to explain these things to him in advance.

Xu Fu thought about it, if Li Xiuyuan really slapped his ass and left, the world is so big that the two of them would never see each other again.

So, I couldn't help but ask: "If you return to the imperial city and the king asks me, how should I reply?"

Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly: "The immortal caressed my head, tied my hair and received immortality... Do you want me to teach you this? Even Zhao Meng, you have to let him say this..."

Xu Fu looked at him speechlessly for a long time, then smiled faintly.

...

It's a dark and windy night, a day of murder and arson. I'm talking about the foothills of Penglai Island tonight.

When the bandits on the mountain sneaked down the mountain at night, they encountered no resistance. In their view, these guys during the day were just pig brains.

You must know that the most feared thing in this sea battle is the night.

Landing on the island is just the beginning. In the eyes of the bandits, even if their ship is burned, as long as they win the battle tonight, are they still worried about losing their ship?

Although there were tents in the camp, Zhao Meng had long been hiding in the woods with a group of guards. Even Xu Fu was sent to the ship on the sea by Li Xiuyuan.

Li Xiuyuan, who was hiding in the darkness, locked the bandits not far away with his spiritual consciousness and murmured: "They are really a bunch of guys who are not afraid of death!"

Quietly, Li Xiuyuan held an iron bow, attached an iron arrow, and stood on a huge rock, watching a group of bandits approaching the camp.

After careful counting, there were actually over a hundred people. It seemed that this was indeed the base camp of the bandits.

Without saying a word, he quietly watched one bandit after another step into the trap, and then be shot by a sudden iron arrow, and then the bandits' miserable howls rang out in the dark night.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that on this quiet night, the guy who had tricked them once during the day actually thought of setting a trap on the beach and on the rocks outside the woods.

However, the bandits fired their bows and had no intention of turning back, because their ship was gone and they had to seize the opponent's large ship no matter what.

Therefore, the bandits no longer concealed their whereabouts, and roared loudly. They divided into two groups, one group rushed to the camp, and the other group rushed to the large ship on the seashore.

"Brothers, rush forward and kill these guys!"

"We can't let these guys go, they burned our ship!"

"Fight with them, brother...I got hit by an arrow!"

In the vast darkness, the miserable shouts of the bandits rang out, echoing in the empty beach, which was extremely shocking.

Li Xiuyuan aimed the iron bow in his hand at the bandits rushing towards the ship because he did not expect these guys to change their minds.

He actually wanted to plan a sea ship first.

The bandits in the camp had Zhao Meng and a group of guards, as well as countless traps, so he didn't need to worry about them. His only immediate task was to eliminate the bandits rushing towards the ship at sea.

There was only a soft sound of "Whoosh!", and the iron arrow cut through the night, piercing the bandit dressed in black. There was only a muffled groan, and the bandit at the front fell to the beach.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Then two iron arrows flew out, and two more men in black fell into the sea.

After autumn, the sea water was already cold, and some of the bandits who had been shot by arrows groaned in pain.

There are also people who are good at swimming. The moment they are hit by the arrow, they slide quickly and kick their legs as hard as they can, regardless of the brothers behind them, let alone the big ship in front of them.

Instead, I was thinking about how to survive this night of death and swim towards the distance like a fish in the sea.

"Thump, thump!"

As Li Xiuyuan fired the iron arrows from his hand, bandits were constantly hit by arrows. Some tried to climb to the ship, some swam farther away, and some frightened bandits simply turned away.

I no longer think about killing the men on the ship at sea, as if there is a murderous god guarding the vast seaside, preventing them from taking a step forward.

Seeing their companions falling into the sea one by one, and the thick blood spreading, the surviving bandits just wanted to escape for their lives.

At this same moment, the sound of bows and arrows was heard all around the camp outside the woods.

Some were shot by bandits, and some were shot by Zhao Meng and his guards.

For a time, the dark night was filled with the sound of swissing bows and arrows, and the howls of the bandits who had been hit by arrows and fell on the beach. Until now, the bandits have not discovered that Zhao Meng and his gang were hiding there.

Bandits kept getting hit by arrows, and some bandits broke through and tried to retreat to the mountains. The two bandit leaders rushed into the sea, trying to rush to the ship on the sea.

Perhaps in their opinion, as long as they board a large ship, they can achieve the final victory in this raid.

However, Li Xiuyuan, who was hiding on the rocks, did not go as they expected. The bow and arrow in his hand shot out one after another. This time, he aimed at the two leaders who were commanding the bandits behind him to charge upward.

There was a whooshing sound, and before the masked bandit leader could continue to roar, an iron arrow pierced through his chest. The long sword in his hand was pointed blankly at Li Xiuyuan, who was less than thirty feet away, and he plunged into the sea water.

More than half of the men who rushed up were shot dead, and dozens of corpses floated on the sea. The other bandit leader was so moved that he could not cry. There were not many bandits on the mountain, but now most of them were gone.

However, he was lucky to be able to save his life. Before the iron arrows could fly in the darkness, the bandit leader got into the sea and called the bandits behind him to evacuate, otherwise none of them would be able to escape.

"Let's go! We are ambushed!"

"Brothers, the wind is tight, go back to the mountain!"

The bandit leader roared with grief and anger, and did not dare to go ashore, but swam farther away. This area was their territory, and they all ran very fast while running for their lives.

In their opinion, as long as they stay away from this terrible ship and go ashore, they can escape to the mountains.

Zhao Meng didn't wait for Li Xiuyuan to come over, and rushed out with a single stride. It didn't take much effort to rush behind the bandits who rushed towards the camp.

"Looking for death! Look at the sword!"

A slightly burly pirate flipped his wrist, held a long sword and rushed towards Zhao Meng, while calling his companions behind him to join him.

Seeing the long sword in the bandit's hand slashing out, the group of guards behind Zhao Meng dispersed in all directions. In an instant, the well-trained royal guards stood behind Zhao Meng.

Seeing the bandit's long sword slashing at him, Zhao Meng had no intention of evading. He raised his right hand, and all his energy converged on the sword, and he slashed at the bandit who was rushing towards him!

"Click!" A crisp sound came out.

I saw the long knife in Zhao Meng's hand colliding with the long sword chopped by the bandit, making a crisp shattering sound.

Something happened that surprised everyone present. Zhao Meng's sword actually cut off the long sword of the bandit leader, and then took advantage of the situation and chopped it on the bandit's head.

A human head flew up and a bloody arrow shot into the air.

Another bandit who rushed over was stunned with fear. He looked at the half-headless body in front of him in disbelief and exclaimed: "This is impossible."

Zhao Meng sneered, gathered his true energy in his hand, and an invisible sword light merged into the vast darkness. He instantly rushed in front of the bandit who just rushed at him and slashed out with his sword.

"Click!" a sound,

Huge power was concentrated on his sword, and it instantly struck the sword that the bandit had slashed at him.
Chapter completed!
