Chapter 22: Why I'm So Unlucky

Under the influence of the wind, the pirate ship quickly headed towards the merchant ship.

"Zhang Danzi, what are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and bang the gong to send a signal, hurry! The boat boss shouted hysterically at Zhang Danzi, who was already completely frightened.

"Little brother, quick, turn the sail with me, quick!" The captain of the boat shouted as he ran in the direction of the mast.

Xiao Yu muttered to himself while running wildly behind, "It won't be so unlucky, why do I almost encounter a robbery every time I travel, whether on land or sea?" ”

Maybe he has grown up after the first few fierce battles, or maybe he has a secret technique and is wearing a personal coat given to him by his uncle, Xiao Yu is not as panicked as the ship boss.

"Dangdang, Dangdang" Zhang Danzi ran around the various cabins while striking the gong, "Hurry up, there are pirates, hurry up!" ”

Xiao Yu and the boat boss ran under the mast, and the boat boss stretched out his hand and pointed, "Quick, this rope, pull it hard to the right." ”

Xiao Yu saw that the boat was getting closer and closer, and he was also anxious in his heart, so he was angry at the moment, and pulled it hard regardless of it.

"Smack"

The boat boss was dumbfounded.

Xiao Yu also looked at his hands at a loss.

High up, a white sail slowly fell.

Xiao Yu was in a hurry, and he didn't control the strength of the Dao Qi, so he actually ripped off the sail rope!

"This?" Xiao Yu knew that he had made a big mistake.

The boat boss glared at Xiao Yu angrily, "What's the shock, don't care about this, hurry up and adjust the remaining two!" ”

The merchant ship has a total of three sails, and the largest main sail has been torn off by Xiao Yu, leaving only two auxiliary sails.

"Where, where!"

"Where's the pirate?"

"My mother, this, how is this good."

"Oh, my dear lady, why am I so unlucky."

One by one, the people on board were rushed to the deck in a panic, and several young shipwrights were so frightened by the tense atmosphere that they collapsed to the ground and almost lost their pants before they could see the pirates.

The people on the deck were crowded more and more, except for a dozen or so people in the merchant group, who were well-informed, everyone else was disheveled and crying wolf, and a few clever ones were planning to secretly release the boat to steal their lives.

"Get out of the way, go back, get back and get your clothes and weapons!" In the end, it was a Turk, Alibu, who had taught Xiao Yu to ride a horse, had no nervousness about the coming of the big war, and shouted and scolded loudly while opening the way for Han Yi in front.

Alibu spoke Turkic in a hurry, but from his angry expression, everyone probably guessed what he meant, and one by one they rolled back again.

Xiao Yu and the ship's boss were busy for a long time, and finally turned the direction of the white sail, and the merchant ship began to return the same way to the north.

But in the end, one and the most important mainsail was missing, and the distance between the merchant ship and the pirate ship was getting shorter and shorter, and it seemed that there was no escape.

At this time, Han Yi had the demeanor of a general, standing on the high deck with a long sword in his hand and began to dispatch troops, "Don't shout, shout again that I will kill him first!" ”

Han Yi cooperated and swung his sword hard.

The crowd immediately fell silent.

"Xie Laosan, quickly climb to the mast and send out a distress signal, maybe there are still imperial court sailors around here!"

"Alibu, you take five or six brothers who are good at archery to the second floor to ambush them. When you are within range of the bow and arrow, you don't have to wait for my order to preemptively attack the opponent's leader! ”

"Wang Cheng, you take two people from the merchant group and a few shipwrights to gather some heavier goods!"

"The others, including the boatmen, are all going to insert the spikes, and after inserting them, go to the first floor and hide for the time being, waiting for my order!"

After giving orders, everyone finally recovered from the panic at the beginning and ran away one by one according to the order.

"I don't know how many pirates there are, and I don't know if they have any tricks." Li Li, who was carrying a longbow, stood on Han Yi's side and asked worriedly.

"At least seventy or eighty people." Han Yi was looking at the big flag flying high on the pirate ship.

At this time, the sky was not completely dark, and thanks to the captain's eyes, he recognized the pirate flag fluttering in the wind at a glance, and it would be a tragedy if he waited until it was completely dark and the pirate ship approached.

Ancient Chinese pirates did not fly skull flags. Their flags are all kinds of paintings, some are painted with an ear of wheat, some are painted with a fresh fish, and Xiao Yu has a fresh fish flag hanging on the pirate ship they encountered.

"Da-da, da-da"

Most of the ship's crew, led by a Turk, planted spikes on the sides of the ship, which were one of the weapons to prevent the enemy from boarding the ship.

"Whoosh". A special rocket roared into the air, illuminating a large expanse of water.

This is Xie Laosan calling for help.

"Li Li, you hurry up and take a small boat to the north to find the sailor for help, if the speed is fast, it should be too late." Han Yi stared at Li Li.

"Leader, I..."

"Okay, don't grind, there's no time, hurry up!" Han Yi waved his hand impatiently, "Bring Yan'er with you!" ”

Li Li understood that the situation was critical at this time, and he was not hypocritical, so Han Yi gave a deep salute, "Take care of the group leader." Without looking back, he ran to the stern of the boat.

"Brother Han, what should I do?" Xiao Yu, who had adjusted the white sails, had nothing to do.

Han Yi looked at Xiao Yu and laughed, "Brother Xiao, you are here with me, see how I destroy the enemy, hum, dozens of pirates, I Han Yi is not in my eyes." ”

Xiao Yu nodded, pulled out his cloud sword, and looked vigilantly at the dark pirate ship in front of him.

At this time, everyone was ready. As the pirate ship approached, everyone became nervous again, except for a few sharpshooters brought by Alibu on the second floor, everyone else hid in the first floor, holding their breath and not daring to move.

The calm before the Great War was the most suffocating.

Eighty zhang...

Fifty zhang...

Forty-nine zhang...

Forty-three zhang...

The shouting of the pirate ship was already faintly heard.

"Goo-dong" I don't know who swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Finally.

With a "whoosh", Alibu's arrow rang out.

There was an "ah" on the other side, and I didn't know if it was dead or alive.

Xiao Yu and Han Yi hid in the dead corner of the deck and observed nervously through the gaps.

"Lie down!" Han Yi suddenly shouted.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" A large wave of arrows rained down on the other side as if in retaliation.

"Hum" An arrow shot not far from Xiao Yu still vibrated continuously.

"Put!" Not to be outdone, Alibu on the second floor commanded several marksmen to find their targets.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" arrow rain strikes again.

Xiao Yu looked at the deck that was like a hedgehog with a shooting range, and couldn't help but worry about Alibu and a few people on the second floor.

Most of the people in Alibu are Turkic people who grew up in the steppe, and they are skilled in arching and horses, and while shooting, they are constantly changing positions, and they are dexterous to dodge left and right.

The two sides had been shooting at each other for a while, and the pirate ship on the opposite side was already close at hand. Xiao Yu secretly took a look, there were more than a dozen people standing on the deck of the opposite ship, each holding a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, standing on the deck to protect his key parts and staring at this side, it seemed that he was about to forcibly board the ship, but the crossbowman who had just shot was missing at this time.

"I don't know which master's ship is on the other side? We have no malice, this cold winter wax moon, the brothers have no place to eat and dress, it is not easy for everyone, and please ask the lord to reward us suffering brothers with a bite to eat, as long as all the goods on the ship are left, I promise not to move you at all, the goods are gone, you can buy again, life is gone, please think deeply. ”

The words of persuasion from the other side are quite tempting.

Han Yi smiled coldly when he heard this, and replied loudly, "The goods are here, if you have the ability, come and get them." After speaking, Han Yi gestured to Alibu on the second floor.

Alibu understood, stretched out his bow and arrows, looked at the empty block, and shot out with a "whoosh".

"Ahh A man with a shield did not block his legs and was shot to the ground in one fell swoop.

The other side was stunned for a moment, and quickly came back to his senses, "Okay, well, it's no wonder that the brothers are ruthless, attack the boat, and kill everyone they meet!" ”

As soon as the words ended, more than a dozen heavily armed pirates shouted loudly. At the same time, seven or eight pirates with flying hooks came out of the bottom of the pirate ship, and each of them suddenly made a move with their arms above their heads after a few laps, and the flying hook accurately hooked the side of the merchant ship, and several people pulled hard, and the merchant ship slowly moved towards the pirate ship.

While several people pulled the boat, a dozen people with shields scattered around to protect its left and right. The seven or eight men immediately abandoned the flying hook, lifted the flying ladder in pairs, and slammed it towards the merchant ship with sharp eyes and quick hands.

There was a "bang", and the two ships finally collided together.

At the moment when the two ships collided, the ladder "snapped" and accurately hooked the merchant ship, and at the same time, the dozen or so pirates held a shield in their left hand directly above their heads, and their right hands held knives while rushing up the ladder.

It's really well-trained, and the pirates on the opposite side seem to have practiced many times, covering for cover, building ladders for ladders, and not hindering each other or interfering with each other.

Alibu and the others saw the opportunity, their bows and arrows were fired, and the two pirates screamed miserably, and their bodies fell limply.

However, the other party was waiting for this opportunity, and the crossbowmen who had disappeared just now came out one after another at this time, and fired back in retaliatory return in the direction where the bow and arrow were fired.

"Ahh

The ladder wasn't long, but the pirate ships were much smaller than the merchant ships, and the pirates were all attacking with shields on their heads, and there were far fewer arrows hitting the merchant ships than before.

The opportunity was rare, Han Yi gave an order, and the people who were hiding on the first floor also rushed up shouting and shouting, and everyone picked up the heavier goods that had just been gathered together, and they didn't care about any mink and bear paws, and threw them down with a "crackling". Xie Laosan, who had just sent a signal for help, stood in the middle of the deck as an overseer, shouting encouragement while staring at everyone viciously.

"Ahh "Oops. ”

The "heavy object attack" was still very effective, and six or seven of the dozen pirates were hit by heavy objects, and all of the "fluttering and fluttering" fell back into the pirate ship.

However, the bandits of the opposing side had intended to attack in waves, but the first attack was thwarted, and a dozen people in the second wave immediately got out from under the deck again, picked up the shields abandoned on the deck, and rushed up again.

"Ahh A boatman covered his face and fell, the weight in his hand hanging without hitting him.

The "heavy object attack" was only used once, and the right person found the law and calculated the time node, and everyone just showed half of their bodies, and before the heavy objects in their hands could be thrown down, the bows and arrows were shot.

"Ahh A boatman fell desperately clutching his neck with his hands, and a cluster of arrows was shot from his neck.

Alibu on the second floor was anxious, the leader of the other party was a smart man, he didn't show his face and didn't say anything, and he was quite accurate in seizing the timing, and those pirates were very experienced in dodging bows and arrows, don't look at themselves lying on the second floor for a long time, but the real damage was gone.

Xiao Yu saw that the heavy object attack had no initial effect, relying on himself wearing the close-fitting clothes given by his uncle, his upper body leaned out of the boat, and the Xingyun Sword "whoosh" shot.

"Poof."

How can it be! A pirate stared incredulously at the sword on his chest. He has been crisscrossing the East China Sea for many years, and many years of fighting have already made him practice a good skill, and Alibu's sharp arrow was blocked by himself several times just now.

However, the reality is still cruel, and the pirates have finally fallen.

"Huh" Xingyun Sword moved again.

"Ahh Another scream.

"Brother Xiao is really extraordinary."

"Well, it seems that pirates are nothing more than that."

Everyone was demoralized because of Xiao Yu's bravery, and Han Yi also looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Yu's face was slightly red, the more he fought, the more brave he became, and he commanded the Xingyun Sword to attack all the way, there were almost no pirates on the flying ladder, and the pirate ship was crying and crying. The opponent's crossbowmen also forgot to launch, and their eyes were all focused on Xiao Yu.

Eerily quiet!

Xiao Yu was slightly proud, and was about to command Xingyun Sword to kill the pirate ship again, when there was a flower in front of him, and with a "whoosh", a black thing hit Xiao Yu.

It turned out to be a flying hook.

Xiao Yu subconsciously commanded the Xingyun Sword to block.

Unexpectedly, this is the opportunity that the other party is waiting for. The flying hook did not dodge or dodge, and wrapped around the body of the Xingyun Sword, the flying hook grabbed the hilt of the sword, pulled it back, and the Xingyun Sword that was pulled moved quickly in the direction of the pirate ship.

Xiao Yu was taken aback, and he breathed again and again. But the flying hook didn't know what it was made of, and it actually severed the connection between Xiao Yu and the cloud sword, and no matter how hard Xiao Yu tried, the cloud sword still flew irretrievably to the cabin of the pirate ship.

The most infuriating thing is that during the whole process, Xiao Yu didn't even see the other party, only saw the flying hook coming from the room on the first floor of the pirate ship.

The other party also has a capable person!

When the other party broke his "heavy object attack" just now, Han Yi already knew.

Seeing the loss of the Xingyun Sword, the anger in Xiao Yu's heart gradually rose.

"After snatching my Xingyun Sword, do you think I can't help it? Hmph, I hate others for robbing my Xingyun Sword the most! Okay, then let you taste my fire phoenix! ”

Xiao Yu bit the index finger of his right hand, his Dao qi condensed, and before a mouthful of blood spurted out, he heard a sudden noise under his feet.

"Thorn, stab, stab"

The merchant ship actually cracked a big gap with Xiao Yu as the center, and there is a tendency to expand.

"This?" Xiao Yu was a little stunned.

When Xiao Yu was about to perform the secret technique just now, Han Yi knew that it was not good, but it was too late.

"The sea is not as heavy as the land, and the merchant ships are hit by the Dao Qi but cannot disperse the Dao Qi like the land. If you can't disperse, and the merchant ships themselves can't bear it, then they can only collapse, don't you know this?! ”

"I don't know."

......

"First you broke the mainsail and then you broke the merchant ship, where the hell are you?" Someone made a sarcastic remark.

"I... I..."

"How can I be so unlucky!"
