Chapter 296: Weakness

The faint light of the fire fold fluttered a few times before it was extinguished, but Hua Lianyue saw the angry faces clearly. She couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart, and finally made those people outside believe that she was not a water bandit, but she didn't expect that there was a group of women who firmly believed that she was a water bandit hidden in this warehouse.

"Wait, I'm not a water bandit....... "Before Hua Lianyue finished speaking, a hard object flew from the darkness and smashed it on her head. This was followed by shouting and scolding one after another: "If you dare to quibble, I will stone you to death." ”

"Yes, smash her, smash her......."

Hua Lianyue covered the place where she was hit and took several steps back. Feeling a warm ** in her hand, followed by an explosive sharp pain, she couldn't help but snort. More unknown objects smashed over in the dark, and Hua Lianyue didn't care about the side of it, trying to hide behind the cargo and protect her head tightly with her hands.

Nothing else, if her head did this again, she was afraid that she would be smashed unconscious.

"Wait, listen to me, I'm really not a water bandit......." Hua Lianyue's weak defense was quickly drowned out in the angry shouting and scolding of the women.

Hua Lianyue was helpless, so she had to hold her head and barely stick to the wall of the boat to hide out temporarily. Who knew that she had just taken a few steps, but she heard the sound of breaking the sky at the tip of her ears. She secretly screamed badly, and fell to the ground alertly. There was a muffled sound, as if something hard hit the sack beside her.

Saba was hit hard, and dust fell on her face. Hua Lianyue sneezed several times in a row, secretly surprised in her heart. I didn't expect these women to be so strong, and their strength was not much worse than that of men.

But if you think about it, you also know that they have been on the ship for many years, and most of the work they do is men's work, and their delicate bodies will naturally not survive. Those who can adapt to it are much stronger than ordinary women.

Before Hua Lianyue had time to catch her breath, she was horrified to hear the sound of breaking the sky that frightened her, this time smashing in the direction of her head. It seems that the perpetrator will not give up until she is beaten to death.

Not far away, a faint yellow light suddenly appeared, and it was approaching from far and near. Hua Lianyue took advantage of this glimmer of light and rolled to the side of the open space without thinking, but the stick still fell on her shoulder. Listening to the muffled sound of "pop", she snorted, feeling as if her shoulder had been smashed.

"What are you doing, but the bandits are on board?" asked the woman at the door, in alarm.

Hua Lianyue covered her injured shoulder, bit her lip tightly, and looked vigilantly at the murderer who attacked her through this glimmer of light. But he was shocked to see that the person standing in front of him was actually a girl with a somewhat immature face. Probably thirteen or fourteen years old. Although his skin is dark and yellow and his head is unkempt, his bones are coarse, and he is used to doing rough work at first glance.

The girl was not tall and wore a coarse cloth jacket that did not fit well. The oil jacket on his body also has traces of sewing, and it looks very shabby. The girl clutched a burning stick tightly in both hands, she bit her lower lip tightly, and her fiery eyes stared at Hua Lianyue through the chaos. In his mouth, he replied confidently: "Sister-in-law Wu, you don't need to panic. I'm just teaching this water bandit woman who is doing internal response. ”

Hua Lianyue suffered these two heavy blows, and her whole body hurt terribly, but she had to beat her spirit, and said to the girl who was full of fierce energy: "Girl, can you be reasonable, what evidence do you have to prove that I am a water bandit?"

"It's all said that outside, can't I still wronged you!" The girl was a little unreasonable, and the burning stick in her hand poked the ground, and said, "It's you domineering water bandits who killed my father and mother." Anyway, there is no way to live, so I will not be reasonable today, and I will kill you first. ”

The girl rounded the stick again, and this time Hua Liyue was completely exposed in front of her eyes, and a touch of cruelty flashed in the girl's eyes......

"Sango, don't mess around, she's not a water bandit. ”

Hua Lianyue squinted her eyes and followed the voice, and saw a young woman with an oil lamp appear at the door of the warehouse, her whole body shrouded in the dim light. Although this woman was weathered, her clothes were extremely ordinary. In Hua Lianyue's eyes, she is like a bodhisattva who saves suffering.

Ye Wushuang!

She should have thought a long time ago that since Wu Qingfeng was on this ship, Ye Wushuang should not leave him.

"Sister-in-law Wu, do you know her?" The girl named Coral finally put down the burning stick in her hand, she tilted her head and stared vigilantly at Hua Lianyue for a while, and then looked at Ye Wushuang who came in a hurry.

Ye Wushuang ignored the coral, she hurriedly came to Hua Lianyue, raised the oil lamp in her hand, and said anxiously: "Flower catch, are you okay?"

Hua Lianyue grinned reluctantly and said, "It's okay!"

"Is she a fast catcher?" asked Sango, who was stunned for a moment.

The rest of the women and children who only dared to hide in the dark and sneak attack with wooden blocks and gravel also slowly walked out, and they also looked at Hua Liyue again with curiosity. It seems that her identity has changed too quickly, which makes them a little uncomfortable.

A boy who was only three or four years old also ran out of the darkness, he stumbled to Sango's side, grabbed her clothes tightly with one hand, and his black bean-like eyes widened with great curiosity, looking curiously at the extremely embarrassed Hua Liyue.

Ye Wushuang was afraid that they wouldn't believe it, so he emphasized again: "Don't follow the wind and rain, Hua Catch has always been jealous and hateful, and I don't know how many cases have been solved in Meiling Town back then." Everyone else can be a water bandit, but she can't. ”

Hua Lianyue couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this: Ye Wushuang, Ye Wushuang, if you had come earlier, I would not have wronged me a few times.

Ye Wushuang suddenly exclaimed, "Hurry up, why are you bleeding on your head?" She hurriedly put down the oil lamp in her hand and beckoned to the group of women and children behind her who were probing their brains: "Quickly get some clean handkerchiefs to bandage it." ”

She was in a hurry, and the oil lamp touched the debris on the ground and instantly toppled over. A lot of black lamp oil poured out, instantly soaking the sack on the side. At the same time, the spark also burst up, and soon ignited the sack, which was already easy to catch fire.

The flames burst out in an instant, causing a burst of exclamations. Coral hurriedly dropped the burning stick and pulled the boy aside, then scooped a scoop of water from a nearby fireproof tank and poured it on the flames. Far from being weakened by this scoop of water, the fire became more and more blazing after a moment.

The exclamations of the women and children resounded in the warehouse again, accompanied by puffs of smoke, and the strange orange flames illuminated the frightened faces around them. Many people were choked and coughed.

The woman who was the first to help Hua Lianyue covered her mouth and nose and reminded angrily: "Don't panic, everyone, don't panic." This lamp oil cannot be extinguished with water when it is lit, so get some quilts or thick clothes and cover the fire head, and it will be extinguished in a while. ”

Because of the cold weather, the women and children wore heavy jackets to keep them warm. Someone immediately took off his jacket and put it in the water tank to soak it, pressing on the fires that were raging with oil stains, and gradually, the fire weakened, leaving only puffs of smoke to spread in the cramped warehouse.

Although the fire was extinguished, the choking smoke could not be dispersed for a while. There was no room for anyone to hide in the warehouse, so everyone rushed to the door.

Hua Lianyue was knocked several times, but she didn't move, just watched as those bright flames gradually extinguished, but a flash of light seemed to flash in her dull head. Ye Wushuang grabbed her arm anxiously and said loudly: "Catch the flowers quickly, you can't stay here for a long time, go quickly!"

Hua Lianyue was pulled by her and staggered out of the warehouse, Ye Wushuang let go of her, and took a big breath of fresh air outside. Hua Lianyue grabbed her arm with her backhand and asked eagerly, "Do you know where there will be a large amount of fire oil on the ship?"

Ye Wushuang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "What do you want to do with the oil?"

Hua Lianyue gritted her teeth and said, "Of course, it is used to deal with those water bandits who kill a thousand knives." ”

Hearing that it was to deal with water bandits, Coral who was the first to pull the boy out immediately lit up, and she said without thinking: "I know the oil is there, you come with me!" She let go of the boy's arm and turned to leave, but was grabbed by a woman.

"What are you doing?" Coral struggled a few times, but couldn't break free from the woman's pull, and couldn't help but ask.

In the darkness, the woman's cloudy eyes were filled with horror. She trembled her lips and said to the stubborn coral: "You can't go, if you dare to mess around, those water bandits won't let us go." ”

"Sango, sister-in-law Wu, don't be impulsive. Those water bandits are murderous without blinking, and if they are angered, I don't know how they will deal with us. ”

"Yes, don't act rashly......."

Except for this woman, the rest of the people were also trying to dissuade her. When they mentioned Qingfeng Village and the water bandits, their eyes were wandering around, revealing caution. It seems that those water bandits are like ghosts, and they will come out of those dark corners at any time, which shows that they are afraid from the bones.

Coral was a little annoyed, and she screamed, "You are afraid of water bandits, but I am not. Just keep hiding, don't pull me. ”

"Sango, be obedient, don't mess around!"

"Sango, you're the only one left in your house and your brother. You have figured out what your brother will do if you go against the bandits and are killed by them!"

The gossip made the coral a little dizzy. The boy who was biting his finger on the side seemed to be frightened when he heard this, and pounced on him to hug Sango's leg, and said in a milky voice: "Sister, don't go, sister!"

Coral looked down at her younger brother with tears in her eyes, a trace of strong reluctance flashed in her eyes, she raised her head again, and cast her eyes for help on Ye Wushuang. Ye Wushuang stretched out his hand and gently stroked the top of the boy's round head, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his heart.

Hua Lianyue was secretly annoyed in her heart, when this group of women took advantage of the darkness to attack her, they didn't see a trace of softness or hesitation. Now they are ready to deal with the water bandits outside, but they are worried about one or two, and the difference is inevitably too big.

Thinking of this, Hua Lianyue snorted coldly and said, "You are afraid that offending the water bandits will lead to death, but those water bandits outside are wantonly slaughtering your husband, brother or son, and they have no mercy."

Now my man is also fighting those water bandits outside, I must go and save him, if any of you stop her, don't blame me for being unkind to her. ”

In a word, the hand that held Coral tightly retreated quietly, and many people avoided Hua Lianyue's eyes that wanted to breathe fire, but tears began to flash in their eyes. Although they were hiding in this cramped warehouse, they knew in their hearts that their men were fighting to the death with the bandits outside, and when things subsided, they didn't know how many people would be able to survive.

Everyone hung their heads and looked sad, and two young women even put their arms around their young sons and sobbed softly.

Coral bit her lip and gently but firmly pushed her crying brother away. She said to one of the women, "Sister-in-law Yu, please take care of my brother for the time being." I went to fight the water bandits, just to give him a chance to live. Years ago, my father and mother made a shrunken turtle, praying for the mercy of those water bandits who killed people without blinking, but it was still difficult to escape the fate of being wiped out, and this time I definitely will not repeat the same mistakes. ”

Sister-in-law's eyes were red, and she hurriedly hugged the crying boy tightly into her arms, but she didn't say anything.

Hua Lianyue was so anxious that she didn't want to entangle with these people. She grabbed the coral and said eagerly: "We can't delay any longer, if the water bandits get on the boat, we will all be finished." They won't help, so they continue to hide here as shrunken turtles, and you take me to fetch oil for fire. ”

"Okay!" Coral replied sharply, and looked at the boy reluctantly, and then ran in the other direction with Hua Liyue.

"Flower catch, wait for me!"

Ye Wushuang also glared at them fiercely before leaving, and said hatefully: "My man is also fighting the water bandits outside, and I am also going to help." You guys should be confused, and see if those bandits will be gracious and let you go and your family members. ”

The women's eyes dodged, and they didn't dare to meet Ye Wushuang. Ye Wushuang secretly hated their cowardice, stomped his foot, and quickly turned around and chased after Hua Lianyue Coral.

Coral takes Retsuki to another warehouse, where a large amount of food and daily necessities are piled up for the merchants. Fire oil is also indispensable, and naturally a lot of it is procured, all in reddish-brown crockpots, piled up in a corner of the warehouse.

Ye Wushuang rushed over panting, almost hitting Hua Lianyue's back, she stopped, and said impatiently: "Flower catch, what should we do?"

Hua Lianyue pointed to the crockpots and said, "Let's move them out and prepare some torches for ignition." ”

"Okay, I'm not strong, I'll prepare the torches. Ye Wushuang said busily.

Coral also said: "I have a lot of strength, I'll help you carry these oils." Said to do it, the three women immediately got busy in an orderly manner.

The fighting on deck was already in full swing, and several bandits had climbed onto the ship along the hemp ropes and began to massacre. Many of the guys who helped were cut down in an instant, and the dart masters had to split their men to fend off the bandits on the deck.

The strength is not enough, and the more they can resist the crazy attack of the bandits after being dispersed, more and more bandits climb onto the deck like ants.

The black-clothed young man on the opposite boat paid close attention to the exhibition, and his eyes couldn't help but light up when he saw this. Clapped his leg and laughed: "It's done, water monkey, let's get ready to board the ship too." ”
