Chapter 8
Chapter 8:
Apo was hoisted on the flag to show the public, but his companions did not rescue him immediately as he expected, but desperately scooped up the cargo from the sunken ship.
“The yellow talisman box, pick up the yellow talisman box!” Before coming to Qiongzhou Island, the pirates had just done a big business, and the most precious cargo they escorted was the large water tank with many yellow talismans on it.
The pirates braved the wind and rain to dive, trying to find the goods with their eyes open in the water. One pirate touched a familiar sign, but the box was too heavy. He shouted to his companion in surprise: “I found it, the box is here!”
A pirate near him swam over and tried to push the box with the former: “It’s too heavy, more people!”
A dozen or so got together and tried to push the box to the shore: “One, two…” The pirate in charge of shouting the slogan failed to say the third word, his eyes widened in disbelief, he looked down at his chest, sea Thorns pierced a large hole through the heart.
“There’s a ghost!” Before dying, this group of evil pirates saw a very terrifying vision before they died. As soon as they opened their mouths, water would choke into their mouths and noses. The pirates completely lost the strength to struggle and slowly sink to the bottom of the sea.
Ji Xuanbing didn’t even look at the pirates. This kind of murder and arson, indiscriminately killing innocent people, made his water dirty in the sinking sea. He swam near the big box that the pirates regarded as a treasure, his fingernails grew out, and he reached out and opened the box with his claws.
He didn’t notice it when he was at sea before, but when the box fell into the deep sea, he sensed the breath of his family. The mermaid clan has an extremely long life span, ranging from 800 to 1,000 years old, but their clan is very loyal to their identified partner, and it is difficult for them to have children in the clan. No matter how many contradictions there are on weekdays between the same clan, if the same clan encounters danger, the merman will not hesitate to help.
When touching the box sealed by the yellow talisman, the talisman radiated golden light, scalding Ji Xuanbing’s hand. His movement alarmed the merman in the box, who started to slam into the box desperately from the inside, whimpering in pain.
Ji Xuanbing shrank his hands subconsciously because of the pain, calmed down, and firmly grasped the spell. The charm that seemed to be easily wet by water actually ignited in the sea, and the charm burned to ashes.
He took a step back, and the box was pushed open from the inside, revealing the crouched and scarred merman inside. The moment the box was opened, the scales all over the merman stood up, and he grinned at him with green eyes, blond hair, round eyes, and the baby on his cheeks was fat and skinny: this is still a little merman!
There are sharks in the South China Sea, and tears can become pearls. A beautiful little merman can sell for a high price in a city in some places. The pirates are just the escorts of this cargo, and they don’t even know that there is a merman hidden inside. Otherwise, if you sell the merman, you will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life, so why go to a small fishing village to rob.
To Ji Xuanbing, the little merman is a new face, and it should not be from his sea area, but they are all mermen, so they should help each other. Ji Xuanbing didn’t hesitate too much, and broke the chain with his bare hands. There were traces of injuries on his hands, but the azure blue water washed the palms of the merman with black burn marks, and the black burn marks were very smoky and burning. It will soon restore the delicate whiteness of porcelain.
“Go, go to the deep sea.” The ocean is the shelter of the merman. In the deep sea, the wounds on the little merman will slowly heal.
The little shark looked at Ji Xuanbing, swung his tail and swam away. The latter remained in the shallow sea area. With the help of the tide, he left all the pirates’ boxes on the shore. He looked at the empty box where the little merman had been hiding, and suddenly had a brilliant idea in his mind.
The pirates on the island noticed the strangeness and turned their heads to flee on the land. The An Wang had two boats, which were not as big and strong as the Hei. They were also boats. With only one boat, they could start from scratch.
The sky was completely shrouded in dark clouds, and only the private residence of King An was lit on the island. The tea prepared by Jiang Chaosheng has been boiled, and the maid who is good at tea skimming off the first course of clear tea and slowly poured the second course of clear water.
The white mist rose up, blurring the angular outline of King An, making him look more gentle and amiable. The powerful pirates are about to attack immediately, but in this small courtyard, there are young people sitting leisurely on the rattan chairs, and they seem to be infected by this calmness, and their panic and nervous hearts calm down again.
“Woooooo!” Apo, who was hung up, finally saw the traces of his companions, and twisted into a silkworm chrysalis excitedly. After waiting for so long, he felt like he was about to be hanged!
The pirate holding the machete cut the rope very neatly, causing Apo to fall. At the moment when the latter fell, a sturdy big net flew out from the big tree at the door and tied several people firmly. hung on the pole together. The big net was closed and swayed wildly, and no one could hold the blade in his hand.
“Fuck…” The pirate who was hung up scolded several swear words, and his face was crowded into a grid because it was too crowded.
The wood of the gate is very hard, and the whole gate weighs several hundred kilograms. The lock is still black iron, and it is impossible to break it open with human power. The courtyard walls are piled with stones and are very solid. The pirates can’t break through hard, they can only climb over the wall.
A few people on Abo’s side were hanged, and the people who climbed the wall were not going anywhere. They screamed like killing pigs one after another: “Ah! It hurts!”
There are plants planted by Jiang Chaosheng on the stone wall, and the green leaves are climbing on the brick wall, which looks green and brings a lot of shade to the interior of the house. Just looking at the exterior, you can only see these beautiful leaves, but after climbing up the wall, the pirates discovered that there were still a pile of broken tiles and gravel pieces hidden under these leaves.
Fragments of the same color as the stone wall are inconspicuous under the sun, not to mention this cloudy and rainy day with poor vision. Every broken piece of porcelain has been polished to a very sharp point. If it is turned upside down, if it is in the wrong position, it will not matter if the hands and feet are stabbed, and the unlucky ones have been stabbed in the crotch, and they have been fatally beaten!
As soon as they lowered their heads, they met more than 20 excited and expectant faces! Dozens of people stood in the yard, each with a weapon, showing them a “kind smile”
The pirate on the wall turned his head and wanted to run, but he was quickly beaten down by the long pole that he had been waiting for. Jiang Da broke his leg with a wooden stick, and his cook wife followed with hemp rope, one by one, one by one, Binding that is called a neat.
The yard was soon filled with hapless people who had robbed their homes, and the rain that had been brewing for a long time finally fell. The struggle that had been expected to be very tragic ended quickly with the fiasco of the pirates. When all the people were caught, there was no one left, and Ting Zhu Leng, who wanted to go out and protect the master, was of no use.
Listening to Zhu, he looked left and right, and found the unfortunate Abo who was trapped in the net pocket. He stepped forward and kicked him fiercely: “I even boasted that I was very powerful, and the whole army was wiped out in one fell swoop!”
Jiang Chaosheng was not too proud: “They are all flesh and blood, and they are too underestimated by the enemy.”
In fact, the pirates massacred the people, which meant that they were bullying the poor without the ability to resist, and they were not united enough. It is very difficult for ordinary people who have never killed anyone to have the courage to resist. If they aim at the knife, their legs will be weak, and they will only want to run away.
This group of pirates will suffer a lot. On the one hand, they lost most of their manpower due to the capsize accident, so they can’t talk about bullying the less. down.
“Thank you for your hard work, let’s split them up and see how the villagers are doing.”
Sea people are valuable population wealth, and he also wants to see if there are local villagers who have colluded with pirates like Apo. Fortunately, the villagers are very simple. Ah Lang, who was hit with a sap, was still unconscious, and no one was fatally injured.
The rain stopped, the clouds dissipated, it was night, but the sky was as bright as day. When he came back from the small fishing village, Tingzhu was caught in his eyes by the shiny objects on the coast: “My lord, … look at that, it seems to be gold!”
On the beach were piles of washed-up boat boards and four or five small boxes. The boxes were knocked over, revealing the golden treasures inside. These were obviously the possessions of the pirates for many years.
There was also a box with half a yellow talisman open, and it was empty inside. Jiang Chaosheng noticed that there were water marks, scratches from struggling, blood, and a glittering scale in the only empty box.
Jiang Chaosheng retracted his gaze: “Everyone has worked hard, move the boxes to the warehouse, eat something to pad your stomach, and go back to rest.” If you don’t go back to sleep, it will be dawn.
No one noticed that under the darkness of the night, a merman had successfully smuggled in, and entered the private residence of King An through the gate openly.
