The sun sets, and the originally blue sea is covered with a layer of red and orange sunset. At this time, a total of twenty-five boats were approaching a small island, and Li Qing stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the situation on the island with his glasses for a while, and then asked the woman to get off the boat and go to the island to persuade her to surrender.

On the boat, Li Qing learned that the woman's name was Xiao Zhuoya, and she had the same surname as Xiao Zuo, the owner of the island, which was rare. In the Xiao family, the top magnate in the Tang Dynasty, and the royal family of the former Xiliang Kingdom are surnamed Xiao.

And here suddenly popped up two surnamed Xiao, what does it represent?

Li Qing kept a conscious eye in private, and did not ask, at this time, after Xiao Zhuoya went to the island, about half an hour later, at this time, the sun had already sunk into the sea, leaving only a sharp corner. The sky darkened as a result.

At this time, Xiao Zuo and Xiao Zhuoya walked out, Li Qing stood at the bow of the boat, and asked the young people to keep on guard, and the torches and iron warheads were also ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

"What do you call Your Excellency?"

Xiao Zuo did not come alone, but with more than 200 pirates, as well as a group of nearly 1,000 old and weak women and children.

This is also the reason why Xiao Zhuoya finally decided to bring them here. If she didn't bring them and die herself, she didn't dare to guarantee that her subordinates would betray them because someone was greedy for life and afraid of death.

If someone betrayed her, relying on these people on the island, she didn't feel that she could hold it. At that time, it will really be a catastrophe on Black Dragon Island.

That's not what she wanted to see.

"A certain Qinglian Sect Left Protector, the Lord of Xiao Island can directly call me the Left Protector. Speaking of which, there is no malicious intent, and it is not aimed at you Black Dragon Island. It's just that on the orders of Childe, all the pirates in this sea area will be wiped out, so that you can submit to it. Of course, what we Qinglian Sect are pursuing is not to fight and fight, we just want a quiet place, a peaceful world without strife. ”

Xiao Zuo listened and glanced at Xiao Zhuoya. Xiao Zhuoya has already said something like this, but it doesn't sound reliable, and she feels that the other party is a little taken for granted.

The human heart is a very complicated thing, he has lived for more than 40 years, and he has seen too many of you and me. But fearing the other party's force, he still made a compromise.

"If the left protector promises Xiao not to harm our people from Black Dragon Island, I am willing to surrender."

Li Qing heard this sentence and finally smiled with satisfaction.

"Of course, from today? You're no longer pirates? It's the Qinglian cultists. Xiao Zuo, does my son-in-law have a word? As long as there is a leader willing to surrender peacefully? He was named the master of Qinglian Church. Such as the stubborn people, even if they finally descend? Kill them too. Are you smart and didn't choose to resist? How many people can you get by? It's hard to say. And what Childe wants is not killing. ”

Xiao Zuo listened, but he didn't care. Although Xiao Zhuoya said that the other party had a weapon with a very big crisis, she didn't think that she really couldn't do it.

His only concern? Is it Xiao Zhuoya? Because she drank poisoned water. Then the doctor on the island couldn't check it out at all, which is one of the reasons why he came out and surrendered.

This night, Li Qing spent the night on the boat, and they didn't go to the island and didn't eat each other's food? Instead, they eat their own dry food. After all, at first, he didn't fully trust the other party.

This night? Xiao Zuo and Xiao Zhuoya's uncle and niece talked about it very late. Because of the arrival of Li Qing this time, their lives? Huge changes can happen.

Where the future will go, no one can say.

"Uncle? Have you ever heard of the Blue Lotus Sect? ”

Xiao Zuo shook his head?

"Never heard of it? These people are very cautious and careful, and if it is true as you say, these people must have a lot of plans. In this sea area, there are at least 50,000 pirates, and more than 20 pirate forces, if they are really defeated and subdued one by one, more than 50,000 people are not a small force. ”

"If you are equipped with the weapon you mentioned, then the son in the mouth of the Zuo Protector is the source of this Qinglian Sect. His plot must be very big, even if he wants to overthrow the current rule of the Tang Dynasty, it is not impossible. ”

Xiao Zhuoya frowned,

"But uncle, even if this Qinglian Sect gathers 50,000 pirates, it is just a rabble, and now Datang can be said to have a million armored soldiers and dozens of experienced famous generals, even if I Xiliang had hundreds of thousands of troops back then, I can't resist at all. And even more so these rabble? ”

Xiao Zuo sighed, how could he not know this, it was just that Xiao Zhuoya, as the last bloodline of the Xiliang Imperial Family, was deeply poisoned by strange poison, and he had to compromise.

"Princess, my uncle is already old, and he has taken these disputes lightly, but he doesn't want my eldest brother's lineage to be broken. Although you are a woman, what you keep in your body is still my eldest brother's blood, you have to remember that no matter what happens, you must put your own safety first, you know? ”

Xiao Zhuoya nodded and bowed respectfully.

"Uncle rest assured, niece knows. However, my uncle is not old yet, and my niece will have to support my uncle in the future. ”

The night is getting deeper, and many people feel a little blank about the future on this night. Moments before nightfall, Li Qing gave his first order, which was to have a good rest, and everyone would gather at the beach early tomorrow morning.

Early the next morning, a gong sounded on the island, and the new Qinglian disciples had obviously not yet adapted to their new identity. Usually they sleep until they wake up naturally, where is there such an emergency gathering?

When everyone came to the beach, they saw Li Qing standing at the bow of the boat with Xiao Zhuoya and Xiao Zuo.

"This time the target is Vinyl Island, we want to take him as quickly as possible, and I hope that when you come back, none of you will be left behind. Now get on board and go. ”

Li Qing's powerful voice fell, and a group of Qinglian Sect disciples reluctantly dragged their weapons onto the boat.

They didn't want to fight and kill, so what did they flee to overseas for? Not just to survive? This has also become a tacit understanding and balance between overseas pirates.

And now, the balance has finally been broken.

In the afternoon, thirty-eight ships carrying more than 700 people rushed to Vinyl Island, and according to the rules, Li Qing took the bullhorn and began to shout, and the pirates on Vinyl Island were at a loss.

Vinyl Island is also a small group of pirates, with a combat strength of about 1,500 and more than 1,000 old and weak women and children. When Li Qing finished shouting, Xu Kun, the owner of Vinyl Island, felt very angry, and immediately organized people to plan to make this Qinglian cultist look good.

However, when an iron warhead exploded on the island, it woke him up in one fell swoop.

What kind of weapon is this? Why is it so powerful?

Xu Kun, who had never seen a hot weapon, heard Li Qing's shout again and surrendered without any hesitation. Because he didn't know how many such weapons the other party had, and after seeing Xiao Zuo from Black Dragon Island, he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he barely hesitated too much.
