Chapter 199 Bat Island
The coast is bare, but not completely empty.
Everywhere you look, there are countless stones, sand all over the ground, and broken wood, rags and other garbage washed up by the waves.
The only plant was the moss growing in the pile of rocks closest to the sea.
Of course it could also be seaweed.
Finally, there was the benefactor who brought them here, a group of seabirds gathered on the shore.
“It feels so good to be down to earth…”
Murong Jiu stepped on the fine sand, a blush on his face as if he had survived a disaster.
"I don't know if there are people living on this island. If it is an uninhabited island, I'm afraid our suffering has just begun..."
"We should go our separate ways and explore inside, and then gather back here in half an hour?"
"can!"
Duan Tianya and Gui Hai Yidao were very aware of the crisis and started exploring the island without stopping.
And Xuanyuan Sanguang...
"Who of you will start a fire? I'm going to catch some birds and roast them!"
"I'll do it, I'm the most skilled at arson!"
Lu Ping jumped up from the stone and pulled Murong Jiu to collect firewood.
There was a lot of firewood on the shore. Considering that there were no trees around, it was conceivable that most of them were washed up by the waves and were probably fragments of ships that had wrecked in the nearby waters.
After being soaked in sea water and exposed to the sun on the shore for who knows how long, these pieces of firewood have become thin and brittle, but there are enough of them that they can be used.
Lu Ping piled the firewood together, used his inner strength to ignite the fire, and after trying several times, he finally succeeded in lighting the fire.
At the same time, Xuanyuan Sanguang skillfully and efficiently skinned, plucked, bled, and cleaned several seabirds, then roasted them over the fire. He then took out the salt and seasonings he had brought on the boat and began to apply them on the barbecue.
It wasn't long before smoke began to rise from the shore, and the aroma of roasting seabirds was enough to make your mouth water.
While eating roasted seabird, they listened to the information brought back by Duan Tianya and the others.
"About a quarter of an hour from here, you can see a stream with drinkable fresh water. I also saw traces of people, so this should not be an uninhabited island."
"Look at the hill in front of us. It's the highest point on the entire island. I went up to take a look and found that there were ships on the other side of the island. And judging from their shapes, they should be the ships of the Shenlong Gang."
"It seems that we must have stumbled upon this mysterious den of gold on the sea that Old Zhang had mentioned."
So this is Bat Island?
Could it be that the system is cheating for me? Otherwise, how could things go so smoothly?
Lu Ping complained in his heart and put the matter behind him.
"In that case, Xiao Linzi and Brother Shangguan are most likely on this island."
Gui Hai Yidao nodded: "I thought so too, but here comes the problem. I didn't see any habitable buildings on the island..."
This phenomenon is not surprising. Lu Ping knows that the real world on Bat Island is in the pitch-black cave where one cannot see one's hand in front of one's face.
"Since it's not on the surface, it must be inside!"
Lu Ping said with certainty: "The so-called den of illicit sex must be inside the cave!"
"I thought so too, but it's not easy to find the entrance..."
"Didn't you say there were ships on the other side of the island? There must be an entrance over there!"
A night's rest, nothing happened.
After resting for a whole night, they woke up the next day and were already in good shape.
That night, Lu Ping also recalled some of the contents of the original book. He remembered that in addition to the official entrance, Bat Island also had an informal cave that could lead to the interior.
However, there are traps set up inside the passage, and if you are not careful you will be caught in the big net.
Another thing is that there is no light at all in the cave, and ordinary people cannot see the environment clearly.
Even though Lu Ping had good hearing and had made some progress in the art of sound positioning, he still couldn't really use sound waves to locate the place like a bat, so how to act after entering was a big challenge for him.
After some thought, Lu Ping decided to start with those 'guests'.
The so-called guests are the financiers who come to Bat Island to conduct transactions. Most of them are well-known figures in the underworld, and many of them even have grudges against each other, so when they come here they will disguise themselves and hide their true identities.
It is also for this reason that, under normal circumstances, only Yuan Suiyun and Ding Feng know their true identities.
But Yuan Suiyun has always had a high opinion of himself, and Ding Feng is profit-driven, so they will focus more on "completing the transaction" rather than "the person who makes the transaction".
This greatly increases the success rate of using someone else's trick or taking advantage of the situation.
After discussion, the five decided to split into two groups.
The infiltration is carried out by Lu Ping, who is the strongest, Murong Jiu, who is most likely to let people down, and Duan Tianya, who can speak multiple languages and has the most professional skills.
As for Xuanyuan Sanguang and Guihai Yidao, they stayed outside and were ready to provide support at any time.
Following the route they explored yesterday, Lu Ping and the other two came to the port on the other side of the island and saw many ships docked there.
"What to do next?"
The boat was seen, but not a single person was seen.
If we can't see the person, then of course we can't do anything to replace him. "It's very simple, can't we just blow him out?"
Blow it up? How?
"It's like frying a fish pond, watch!"
Lu Ping smiled, and actually gathered all his strength, and blasted through the air at the huge rocks near the docked ships in front of him!
"The image of divine destruction!!"
The Divine Scroll moves reappeared in the mortal world, and the tremendous palm force fell on the surrounding hills, instantly breaking the hills into countless rocks that rolled down, landing on the ground, in the water, and even on the ship, and the entire port began to sway.
This action stunned Duan Tianya and Murong Jiu.
"Aren't we supposed to sneak in secretly?"
"Yeah, so I'm just blowing everyone out, right? If we see them, we can follow them immediately, and then we'll know where they are. We just need to knock them out and change their clothes, and then..."
"You really are a genius."
The two were instantly impressed by Lu Ping's hasty and reckless, simple and rough method. Murong Jiu couldn't help but give Lu Ping a thumbs up.
But Lu Ping's method was unexpectedly effective!
How could people not be curious when such a big commotion suddenly broke out in the originally peaceful port?
Noisy voices were heard on each boat, and several people even opened the windows and stuck their heads out.
Soon, several servants in uniform came out to check the situation.
However, these people had low martial arts skills and could not tell that the falling of the boulder was caused by human beings. They just thought that the hill had been constantly worn away by wind and sun for years and finally could not withstand the weathering and collapsed naturally at this moment.
A man who looked like a team leader gave a few instructions to the servants, then turned and walked towards a hidden cave. From the look of his face, he seemed to be going to report the situation there.
"How is it now?"
"Should we follow the captain in, or should we stick to the original plan and pretend to be a 'guest' and wait for an opportunity?"
There were more than ten people who hurriedly opened the door and stuck their heads out to see what was going on.
So, according to conservative estimates, there are at least 20 to 30 customers coming to Bat Island to trade this time.
How to start and who to choose is a crucial decision.
"We are unfamiliar with the place, so it is better not to act separately. Let's proceed as planned..."
Now that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, Lu Ping did not intend to rush in like this. He turned his head and looked at Duan Tianya: "Among the people who just opened the window to look outside, is there anyone you know?"
Duan Tianya was startled when he heard this, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then opened his eyes again and said, "There is a person I recognize, it's Li Tianhao, the elder of the Giant Whale Gang. This person is average in strength, and the Giant Whale Gang has always been obedient to the imperial court, maybe we can use him!"
The Giant Whale Gang?
Isn’t it the one in the original drama where the elders teamed up with Yagyu Tajima-no-kami to strip the leader of the gang?
"In that case, we'll choose him!"
"But this matter is of great importance. Let's not even think about cooperating. Let's just take tough measures!"
Duan Tianya thought about it for a moment, felt that this made sense, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Having made up their minds, the three of them used their Qing Kung Fu to get to the window where the Giant Whale Gang was located and patted it with their hands.
dong dong dong...
As there was a knock on the window, a man's voice was heard from inside the house.
"Strange, why is someone knocking on my window? Let's go see what's going on."
"Yes!"
Soon, the window was opened.
As soon as the guard stuck his head out, he bumped into Lu Ping's clenched fist.
Bang! ! !
The guard was knocked unconscious by a punch to the bridge of his nose, and Lu Ping simultaneously dodged and rushed into the room.
There were two other people in the room, one was Li Tianhao and the other was also a guard.
Seeing Lu Ping suddenly coming in, the two were immediately shocked and even forgot to shout or fight back.
But the two men were dumbfounded, but Lu Ping would not just stand there like an idiot. He quickly stepped forward, patted them on the body, and pressed their sleeping points.
By the time Duan Tianya and Murong Jiu followed Lu Ping in through the window, the three people in the room had lost the ability to move.
"From the looks of it, it should be Li Tianhao who brought two guards here to attend the trade fair..."
"There happen to be three of them, which is just the right number. God is really helping me!"
Among the three people present, Duan Tianya was the most familiar with the situation of the Giant Whale Gang, so they unanimously decided that he would pretend to be Li Tianhao, while Lu Ping and Murong Jiu would pretend to be guards.
After changing their clothes and putting on the clothes and masks that Li Tianhao had carefully prepared, the three of them instantly changed their appearance.
Looking at the three unconscious people in the room, Murong Jiu asked, "What if they wake up and make a scene?"
"Don't worry, the pressure I just put on them was strong enough to make them sleep for the whole day!"
Lu Ping said calmly: "But just in case, let's tie him up and gag him."
"clear."
The infiltration and disguise operations went very smoothly. After that, the three of them searched Li Tianhao's luggage in the room to prevent any mistakes in subsequent operations.
It would be fine if I didn't search it, but I was shocked when I did.
Li Tianhao actually carried a total of 500,000 taels of silver notes on him!
