Interrupted suddenly, Yang Xiao did not act rashly, his expression remained normal as he shook his head, "No, I won’t."
Tai Wenqin nodded, then raised his hand, pointing at his heart at an angle only Yang Xiao could see, and whispered, "You paid , I will ensure your safety on this journey, don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything."
"I don’t understand what you’re saying." Yang Xiao was unsure of what this guy was up to.
Tai Wenqin forced an awkward smile, his gaze lowered, sweeping towards Yang Xiao’s hand hidden in his sleeve, which was tightly gripping the Human Bone Staff.
Seeing this, Yang Xiao’s heart sank, realizing he had encountered a master, this guy was no simple character, and might also have similar Magic Artifacts that can detect opponents.
Imdiately, Tai Wenqin turned around and looked at the boat captain who was still joking obscenely, rudely interrupting him, "These people are my bosses, they paid to ensure their safety, understand?"
"What do you an by this?" The boat captain’s face instantly darkened.
"You know what I an, don’t ruin my reputation," Tai Wenqin’s tone was hard.
As the facade was torn apart and the boat sailed to the center of the river, the boat captain also dropped his act, about to signal his crew to take action, but suddenly clutched his chest, staggering backward, his facial features twisted in pain, blood spewing from his slightly open mouth, and within seconds, he collapsed dead.
This all happened in a blink of an eye, the boat crew didn’t even react, but it didn’t matter because the next mont, misfortune befell them too, and two more crew mbers died miserably in the sa way, these were the only remaining Apostles among the crew.
This scene shocked everyone present, especially Yang Xiao, as only he and Tai Wenqin had comparable strength here.
From the mont he boarded, he had been closely observing every movent around, but he hadn’t detected how Tai Wenqin accomplished it.
This guy’s killing thods were indeed bizarre, completely different from the dostic Apostles’ style, more like a curse.
"If the rest of you don’t want to die, then quietly sail and take us to the opposite shore."
Tai Wenqin spoke in an icy tone, his gaze sweeping over the trembling crew, now to them, he was like the grim reaper, none dared to utter a word.
Seeing the situation under control, Tai Wenqin ca to Professor Cui, clasped his hands together, slightly bowed his head, and very sincerely apologized, "Sorry Boss Zhou, for disturbing you, it’s my oversight in planning, I assure there won’t be a next ti."
And Professor Cui, worthy of being soone who had seen the world, remained very composed, ordering his n to tie stones to the three corpses and throw them into the river.
With a few splashes, the three, including the boat captain, completely vanished from this world.
Before even setting foot on the Myanmar-Tai Black Triangle soil, three people were already dead, including a Fierce Level Apostle, looking at the dark river surface, Yang Xiao couldn’t help but be more concerned about this journey.
Soon, under the guidance of lights on the shore, the iron-clad boat docked at a beachhead.
From behind the reeds on the shore burst out 7 or 8 people, ard with fish spears and other Ominous Instrunts, while so were dragging a homade wooden cart with ropes, clearly here to load cargo.
The leader shouted to the people on the boat, and seeing no response, the group surrounded them. At this ti, Tai Wenqin stopped Yang Xiao, and was the first to step out of the cabin and jump off the boat.
Seeing it wasn’t the boat captain who ca out, these rough-skinned, dark n raised their fish spears and stabbed, but in less than a minute, they were all killed by Tai Wenqin, this ti he used a serrated knife.
Tai Wenqin slaughtered them like cutting lons and vegetables, even two teenage boys hiding at the back preparing to load goods didn’t escape.
And before this, the remaining few crew mbers on the boat were also butchered by Tai Wenqin.
At Tai Wenqin’s request, Professor Cui ordered his n to drag these bodies to the junction of the beachhead and the waterline, so that when the tide rises, they would be carried into the river.
In less than an hour, Tai Wenqin had killed no fewer than 30 people and was still calmly directing the handling of bodies.
His expression could no longer be described as calm, it had beco completely numb, at this mont, Yang Xiao gained a whole new understanding of the chaos in the Myanmar-Tai Black Triangle.
After dealing with the bodies, Tai Wenqin walked over to Yang Xiao, his tone stiff, "What should I call you, guest?"
"Surna Yang." For this enigmatic fellow, Yang Xiao thought it best to keep a courteous distance.
"Mr. Yang, you are quite skilled, if I hadn’t intervened, you could’ve dealt with them too, it would have been easy for you."
"You are the truly skilled one." Pausing, gazing at the line of corpses, Yang Xiao couldn’t help but voice his curiosity, "This question might be overstepping, but I’m really curious, how did you manage what happened on the boat, when did you act?"
"When I boarded the boat, you were still below keeping an eye on the boxes you brought, so it’s normal you didn’t notice." Tai Wenqin replied directly, his openness seed almost abnormal.
Hearing this, Yang Xiao’s brows furrowed, "You already knew the boat captain ant us harm?"
"No, I only confird their intention to hijack and kill when the boat reached the middle of the river."
"But didn’t you just say when you got on the boat..."
At this point, Yang Xiao abruptly paused, then suddenly as if he realized sothing, took a deep breath, "From the mont you boarded, you never planned to let them live, whether they were good or bad, whether they intended us harm or not."
"Mr. Yang, Boss Zhou paid a hefty sum to hire precisely because of my reputation, Boss Zhou and the cargo’s safety always co first, as long as I’m alive."
Speaking of these, Tai Wenqin’s eyes were exceptionally firm, "There’s one more thing I want you to understand, the snakeheads running black boats in the Myanmar-Tai Black Triangle all have complicated backgrounds, not wiping them out, if any leaks occur, Boss Zhou’s safety would be hard to guarantee."
Looking up and down at this dark, muscular man, Yang Xiao nodded, now understanding the weight of Professor Cui’s words, this man was indeed extrely reliable.
And surely, the price must be extrely high.
But one must admit, you get what you pay for, this person is indeed worth it.
With the scene handled, everyone set off under Tai Wenqin’s lead, passing through a chaotic reed field, finally finding a muddy path.
Following the path, there was a small tavern with red lights on, through the murky windows, one could see the lively inside, with a few heavily made-up won in short skirts straddling patrons’ laps, flirting extravagantly.
Letting everyone wait outside, Tai Wenqin entered the tavern alone, shortly after, two n ca out, they reached the tavern and started two cars.
One was a white van, and the other a green sedan, these cars, if in the dostic, would surely have been directly sent to the scrap yard for forced disposal.
Loading the disguised boxes onto the van, Professor Cui declined Tai Wenqin’s offer, insisting on sharing the van with the boxes instead of the more comfortable sedan.
Yang Xiao and Tai Wenqin also boarded the second van, fortunately, the middle seats in the van had been removed, modified to haul cargo, thus the space was adequate.
"Boss Zhou, you can rest assured, these two drivers are reliable people, my friends, they’re locals, can’t understand your language." Tai Wenqin introduced earnestly.
The road was quite bumpy, filled with potholes, and it wasn’t until 20 minutes later that they drove onto a dilapidated asphalt road.
Tai Wenqin looked out the window and introduced to them, this was Bangshu Town, a relatively large town in the Myanmar and Thailand area, and it was also Yang Xiao’s and the others’ destination for this trip.
The buildings along the road were run-down, the few lit signage were chaotic, the urban construction level was poor, even worse than so of the better-developed rural areas dostically.
