A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1040
[Chapter 1030 Traitor]
A few people hid behind the stone gate, but heard footsteps running by from time to time outside, and even faintly heard someone say: “Everyone finds the surnamed Jiang, and there are instructions on it, as long as you catch that Jiang Mantian, whether it is life or death. , are rewarded heavily. ()”
Jiang Mantian’s heart sank even more.
He ordered Jiang Yishui to lead the fleet to the south, and he secretly landed on Haifeng Island in the middle of the journey. He thought that everything was done without anyone knowing, but after hearing the words outside, even those gangsters knew that they were in Haifeng. Dao can also know that his whereabouts are completely exposed, and the purpose of this action against Haifeng Dao seems to be directed at himself.
“Master, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time.” Kong Sheng said in a low voice: “They seem to already know the road to the island, and sooner or later they will find this place. We must leave this island immediately.”
Jiang Mantian knew that the moment of life and death had indeed arrived, and frowned, “Leaving this island, where can we go?”
“Master, after we leave the island, we will go all the way to the south to meet with the third master.” Kong Sheng said: “As long as we meet with the third master, we can go to Nanyang to escape temporarily. Nanyang is not within the sphere of influence of the Chu State, so we are here. Nanyang, the state of Chu has nothing to do with us.”
“Nanyang?” Jiang Mantian’s eyes twitched slightly, thinking that even if he joined Jiang Yishui’s fleet, the supplies on board would not be sufficient to reach Nanyang.
The majority of that fleet were hired martial artists. If they had enough money to eat and drink, they would naturally bow their heads and obey orders. But once they were short of food and drink, on the vast sea, those people would turn their heads when they said they would turn their backs. .
“Everyone, check it out. As mentioned above, many stone walls have organs, and maybe there is a secret door behind it. Everyone is looking for it carefully. Maybe the surnamed Jiang is hiding in the secret door.” There are faint rumors outside. The sound came, and then I even heard something beating on the stone wall.
If there is a stone chamber behind the stone wall, the sound is unusual and can be easily detected.
Jiang Mantian knew that since he had reached this point, he really couldn’t stay any longer. Instead, he calmed down and said in a low voice, “Come with me. (Update as soon as possible).” In an organ, there is a black stone road. He took the lead and went in, and a few people followed behind to get in.
Jiang Mantian is very familiar with this stone road. Occasionally there are bifurcations, he can choose the direction at the first time. After walking for more than half an hour, the way is smooth and smooth. Asking Kong Sheng to step forward and make a gesture, Kong Sheng raised his hands and raised the slate above.
Knowing it was the exit, Kong Sheng hooked one hand on the edge and took the lead to go up. After checking around, there were overgrown weeds all around, and the source was very hidden. Kong Sheng went over and pulled Jiang Mantian out, and waited for the other two to come out. The slate was covered, and there were weeds growing on the slate, which was very hidden. Kong Sheng didn’t know where he was for a while, but Jiang Mantian signaled a few people not to make any noise, and led them forward.
The weeds were dense, and several people were hidden in it. After walking for a while, a voice was faintly heard not far away. Jiang Mantian stopped and looked through the weeds, only to see on the beach not far away. There was a group of people, bandits and officers and soldiers mixed together, and saw a navy general gesturing to his subordinates there, as if he was instructing how to act, Jiang Mantian sneered, did not stop, still led a few people forward.
After walking for a short while, we passed through a forest. Outside the forest was the beach. The moonlight shone on the beach, and there was no one there. The beach was very narrow. People don’t need to worry first, wait for a while, make sure that there is no one, then wave their hands, the three of them know what they mean, and immediately drag the boat out of the woods and go straight to the sea.
After dragging the boat into the sea, Kong Sheng helped Jiang Mantian to get on the boat. After the other two got on the boat, they all picked up the oars, without waiting for Jiang Mantian’s orders,
Row straight into the sea.

Jiang Mantian looked solemn, only worried about being discovered. After a few miles from the coast, Jiang Mantian breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the northeast corner, and said weakly, “Go over there.”
Kong Sheng hurriedly asked, “Master, are we not going to Nanyang?”
“I can’t go to Nanyang.” Jiang Mantian shook his head and said, “There is another place we can go and see, it is a safe place.” He waved his hand and said, “Let’s go, you will naturally know when you arrive, you have made great achievements tonight, I will not sorry for you.”
A few people were a little surprised, but they didn’t ask much, and swiped in the direction of Jiang Mantian’s finger.
Jiang Mantian sat in the boat and looked at Haifeng Island, which had been occupied, with anger in his eyes, but more pain in his eyes. Until now, he still couldn’t figure out how such a secret place could be discovered.
“Master, did the Ghost King and the others fail to escape?” Kong Sheng was Jiang Mantian’s trusted escort. Jiang Mantian often came to Haifeng Island in secret, and was also guarded by Kong Sheng, so he knew a little about the situation on the island.
Jiang Mantian stared at Kong Sheng’s eyes, and instead asked, “Kong Sheng, the officers and soldiers know the situation on Haifeng Island very well, what do you think is the problem?”
“I really don’t understand.” Kong Sheng frowned and said, “No one has ever dared to approach Haifeng Island, and the island is extremely secretive, so it is impossible for anyone to leave and inform. The Ghost King personally guards Haifeng Island, something is wrong. , With the shrewdness of the ghost king, I can find out!”
“You’re right.” Jiang Mantian said with a stern expression: “Haifeng Island has existed for decades. Even if Tantai Huang was in the East China Sea back then, he didn’t know the island’s secrets. But overnight, officers and soldiers and pirates colluded together. , suddenly killed them. They seemed to know the underground path on the island well, as if they had always lived on the island. No matter how the officers and soldiers and the pirates got together, I just want to know where they came from. Know the underground path on the island?”
Kong Sheng nodded and said: “Master is right, even if it is the people who live on the island all the year round, the ghost king is also very strict in management. If they are not allowed to walk around at will, they will not be able to know the complete underground path on the island. How did the bandits know?”
“There can only be one explanation.” Jiang Mantian’s expression was gloomy: “There is a traitor!”
“Traitor?” Kong Sheng was shocked, and the other two guards also looked at each other.
Jiang Mantian sneered: “There are not many people who can walk around on the island at will, except me, that is, the ghost king and Lu Shanghe.”
“Master, are you suspicious of Lu Shanghe?”
“It’s not Lu Shanghe.” Jiang Mantian shook his head and said, “Everyone can be a traitor, but he can’t.” After a pause, he said, “It’s impossible for Lu Shanghe, but it’s very possible that he brought someone.”
Kong Sheng was taken aback, Jiang Mantian sighed: “Lu Shanghe has no place to stand in Xichuan, and the beggar gang is looking for his whereabouts everywhere. The Lord Yin ordered him to come to the East China Sea and hide on our side for the time being. Lu Shanghe does have it. The talent of a leader, with him here, can be of great use in the future.”
“What is the traitor that the master said?”
“Kong Sheng, Lu Shanghe came to the East China Sea. You met with me that day.” Jiang Mantian frowned and said, “He has a young man with him, do you remember?”
Kong Sheng nodded and said, “Remember, sir, don’t you think?”
“I didn’t tell you at that time that the young man belonged to the Jinyi Qi family.” Jiang Mantian’s eyes were cold: “Lu Shanghe met on the way to the East China Sea. That man is called Qi Yu, the concubine of Qi Jing, who has been taken by Jinyi Qi. The house was kicked out of the house.”
Kong Sheng was surprised: “He is from Jinyi Qi’s family?” He seemed to understand: “Little one understands, that Qi Yu must be a traitor.”
“I’ve thought about it, but this is the only possibility.” Jiang Mantian sneered: “This is a bitter trick. I even suspect that it was not Lu Shanghe who met him, but that he deliberately waited for Lu Shanghe to take the bait, just to follow Lu Shanghe. , feel the bottom of Lu Shanghe. We all thought that Qi Yu was kicked out of the house, and we must be very resentful to the Jinyi Qi family, but who can guarantee that all this is not a conspiracy?”
Kong Sheng clenched his fist and said, “Master, if I had known this, I should have killed that kid.”
“I still trust Lu Shanghe very much. Qi Yu and Lu Shanghe came together and always wanted to give Lu Shanghe some face.

“Master, if you say this, the little one is sure that the traitor is Qi Yu.” Kong Sheng said bitterly: “Haifeng Island has always been extremely secretive, this time, not long after Qi Yu came, the officers and soldiers knew the secrets of the island. , and even the underground passage is clear, there is really no other explanation other than Qi Yu leaking the news. The rest have been on the island these days, and the master is very tolerant towards Lu Shanghe because of his face. This person can Walking around the island arbitrarily, he just took this opportunity to get familiar with the terrain on the island, and then secretly colluded with Qi Ning!”
Jiang Mantian nodded slightly: “It should be like this.” He sneered: “This person destroys my treasure island, no matter what, I will break this person into tens of thousands of pieces.” Speaking of this, I don’t know if it was because of his anger, a violent burst of anger. Coughing, Kong Sheng hurriedly said: “Master, you rest first, we have been heading northeast.”
Jiang Mantian said: “At this speed, if you keep paddling to the northeast, it will take more than two hours. Before dawn, you will see an island, and the vicinity of that island is also inaccessible. Let’s go there.”
Kong Sheng seemed to understand something and asked in a low voice, “Master, could it be?”
Jiang Mantian nodded slightly, Kong Sheng frowned and said, “Master, could it be over there?”
“If Qi Yu really betrayed us, it must be very safe there.” Jiang Mantian said: “Qi Yu has only been to Haifeng Island, and doesn’t know the existence of that island, even Lu Shanghe only heard about it and didn’t personally On the island, if Qi Yu colluded with officers and soldiers in private, he would only know about Haifeng Island, and there would be no problem there.”
Kong Sheng nodded and instructed the other two: “Brothers, put more strength, we will be safe soon!”
