Chapter 337: The Black Shell Pirates (Part II)
Seeing that the nineteenth princess directly sent someone to invite Tong Wuxin, Zhu Xiaobao's heart was a little anxious, which showed that Wu Yue couldn't handle this group of pirates at all! So Zhu Xiaobao looked at Tong Wuxin a little anxiously, which meant that he wanted to invite Tong Wuxin to go out immediately!
"Poof! Seeing that you are in a hurry, you can rest assured, now they are just robbing those merchants, and they did not threaten the Nineteenth Princess, let alone hurt Wu Yue! Tong Wuxin couldn't help laughing, but he was a little jealous in his heart, and at the same time a little heartache, wasn't he also very favored by Zhao Shenlong at the beginning! It's a pity that there will never be such a time again!
"No! You know that Wu Yue has no brains, and compared to these cunning and murderous pirates, he is not an opponent at all! Zhu Xiaobao didn't think it was funny at all, he was really afraid that Wu Yue would stupidly rush to the front and resist others!
"Humph! So you mean I'm cunning and murderous? Tong Wuxin asked dissatisfiedly.
"Oh! You are my closest and most trusted sister, of course you are gentle and kind! Hehe, but you need to be ruthless with those pirates! Zhu Xiaobao hurriedly said flatteringly.
"Alas! Forget it, who told you to call this sister so smooth? I really owe you! Tong Wuxin sighed and said, then turned his head to look at Duanmu Qi, only Duanmu Qi was the wisest, and at the same time, many things couldn't escape his eyes!
"Don't rush yet! I estimate that the third child will be back soon, and I sent him to Southeast County to inquire about the situation, just to find out where Yu Li and the others went! Who knew that when they arrived in Southeast County, they would lose their whereabouts! Duanmuqi was still calm, and he was not in a hurry to let Tong Wuxin set off.
At the same time, Duanmuqi invited Yu Hui and Yu Dan over and asked about Yu Li's personality, is it possible that she is really downcast to be a pirate? Because Duanmu Qi always had a little suspicion that this group of pirates was Yu Li's female warriors!
"This is impossible, how can we female warriors of the Lingyue clan become pirates? Even if Yu Li is cornered, she can switch to the command of the Seventh Princess, and with her strength, she will be reused wherever she goes! Yu Hui and Yu Dan both said with certainty that although they were not very close to Yu Li, they still believed that she would not do such a stupid thing!
"Oh! I just asked casually, and I didn't mean to belittle them! Duanmuqi hurriedly explained with a smile, but he was even more confused in his heart, since it was not Yu Li, who could it be? Judging from the style of acting, it is indeed not like an ordinary pirate, is it from the Zirui Kingdom?
Fortunately, the next day, Zhao Shenbao hurried back, since Zhao Shenlong was killed, Zhao Shenbao did not stay at home anymore, but was very active in going everywhere to inquire about information, not only him, but the remaining members of Duanmu Shilang also acted separately. They all wanted to find out the real culprit for Zhao Shenlong and take revenge!
No, this time, Zhao Shenbao didn't inquire about the exact news, only knew that Yu Li and the others went to Ji Zhi's house, and never came out again. But Zhao Shenbao really didn't dare to get too close. There are many masters among those female warriors, and the most thrilling thing is that Zhao Shenbao was almost discovered by others.
Fortunately, Zhao Shenbao was hiding far away
He was quietly observing with a telescope, but he didn't expect it to arouse the vigilance of the Nine Yin Venerable. Fortunately, Zhao Shenbao found the figure of the Nine Yin Venerable in time! Although it was extremely concealed and flashed, Zhao Shenbao was still experienced and cautious, so he just hid his breath there, and after waiting for a long time, he could be regarded as escaping the detection of the Nine Yin Venerable!
"Master! The warships of those female warriors were all docked at the dock of the Seven Princesses, and they never moved! But the whereabouts of those female warriors are unknown, this time I was lucky enough to avoid the detection of that great martial artist, and thanks to this telescope, otherwise if I got closer, I might have been discovered, so I didn't dare to approach again! Zhao Shenbao said a little ashamedly, now I regret it a little, I am too lazy in my practice, if my cultivation is a little higher, maybe it will be more hidden!
"Forget it, I can't blame you, that Great Venerable should be Ji Zhi's master, Nine Yin Venerable, it's not something we can get close to at all!" Duanmu Qi shook his head, and then had no choice but to say to Tong Wuxin: "In this case, I have to let you go to the Nineteenth Princess first, but you must be careful, I always feel that this group of pirates is not so simple!" ”
"Yes! Master, don't worry, if it were an ordinary pirate, I believe it would not be my opponent, and I would be careful! Tong Wuxin nodded, and immediately went back to prepare for the departure with the warship of the Nineteenth Princess. Zhu Xiaobao was still not at ease, so he also found Jumei and asked her to go to the nineteenth princess with Tong Wuxin.
……
Wu Yue walked around the periphery of Princess Island for a few days, it was really a little unbearable, the colorful boat was not suitable for long-distance action, the space was too small, and the hull was also small, it was greatly affected by the wind and waves, and for two or three days outside, the food and fresh water on the ship could not be supplied, so he had to retreat immediately.
Later, Wu Yuezhi also came up with a solution, that is, to travel with the caravan, it is not easy to be noticed in the middle of it, and the supplies needed can also be obtained from the merchant ship. Disappointingly, however, the voyage went smoothly and the caravan did not encounter pirates. It was very smooth to drive out of the sea area of Princess Island, and then entered the sea area of Zirui Country.
This made Wu Yue a little depressed, but since this group of pirates no longer appeared, it was a good thing! So after Wu Yue returned, he followed another caravan with him. This time, the caravan was relatively large, with six merchant ships and ten escort ships.
Although the group of pirates has been making a lot of trouble recently, the steward of this caravan is still very confident, after all, the men and horses of his ten escort warships are very experienced in actual combat, and there are two great martial artists among them, which are definitely something that ordinary pirates dare not invade!
Wu Yue and the others were mixed in, in fact, they didn't think there should be any problem, because they were about to leave the sea area of Princess Island, and this time I was afraid that they would have to run in vain! It's just that today's weather is not very good, the wind and waves are relatively strong, and the visibility on the sea surface is also very low, and Wu Yue can't see too far even with a telescope.
The full crew of the colorful ship was forty people, and Wu Yue brought more supplies in order to reduce weight, so this time there were only thirty people. In fact, there are thirty people, Wu Yue feels that it is a bit much, her purpose is mainly to find the traces of pirates, and not to go to war! Now following this caravan, the speed of action is relatively slow, and they have to swallow slowly
Swallowed mixed in the middle!
But unexpectedly, just as she was about to sail out of the waters of Princess Island, Wu Yue was surprised to find that several black warships appeared in front of her, but because of the low visibility, she was not sure whether these ships were pirate ships or not. And it's not clear how many there are.
Wu Yue hurriedly informed the steward of the caravan, these people hadn't noticed it yet! It wasn't until I listened to Wu Yue's reminder that I found that this row of warships had quickly approached! The other party is downwind, so the speed of approaching is much faster than Wu Yue imagined. And Wu Yue had already seen the black pirate flag through the binoculars, with a skull embroidered on it, and the word 'Heibei' was also shown underneath the pirate flag!
"Quick! Get on alert, they're pirates! Wu Yue suddenly shouted in shock and urgency.
"Hurry, hurry! Pirates are coming, so get ready for battle! The steward also shouted urgently. Suddenly, ten warships were also lined up, protecting the merchant ships in the middle, and the warships on both sides had already begun to fight with the other party's pirate ships.
But as soon as these warships came up, they suffered a big loss, because the opponent was downwind, so the range of the bow and crossbow increased a lot, and before this side reached the range, the opponent's arrows had already been shot, and suddenly many guards fell to the ground with arrows!
Wu Yue also hurriedly drove out of these warships at this time, she couldn't mix in the middle anymore, what she needed was to rely on flexible and high-speed guerrilla attacks on the other party.
But once it got out of the fleet, Wu Yue's colorful boat was undulating in the wind and waves, and even the speed was not as fast as before. What surprised Wu Yue even more was that at this time, a row of black warships also appeared behind them, although the hull was not big, but it was very fast, far faster than ordinary small warships! What kind of ship is this? Could it be that the pirate ship has also been improved? Wu Yue was a little dumbfounded.
Wu Yue immediately turned the bow of the ship to face the warships behind her, but when she turned around, she found that she seemed to be surrounded by these warships, and the other party's encirclement was closing. What's more, on the undulating sea, her ship's gun hit rate dropped dramatically, and she fired two rounds in a row to hit two warships. And the other party's pirate ship turned out to be twenty.
"Hurry, hurry! Hurry forward and get out of their encirclement! Wu Yue suddenly became a little anxious, if he was surrounded, then he would have no advantage, and if the opponent's warship collided, then he would definitely not overturn!
Moreover, Wu Yue also found that the increase in the other party's speed was definitely the biggest threat to her! Now the two sides are actually very close, and the other party's arrows have begun to fire, although they are also affected by the wind and waves, and the accuracy of the other party is not high, but after all, there are many people, and at the same time, hundreds of people shoot at them, which still causes huge damage. More than a dozen female guards have already been hit by arrows, and six of them are still seriously injured!
Fortunately, at this time, Wu Yue desperately raised the speed of the colorful ship and rushed towards the pirate ship on the very edge, rushing out before they formed an encirclement!
But just as the colorful ship was about to rush out of the pirate ship on the very edge, suddenly several figures jumped down from the pirate ship, and they were about to fall on the colorful ship......
