readx; At dusk, Zhu Youzhen and Li Zhenyan finally arrived at Huangweiyu. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info these fifty miles of sea route, they rowed a full five hours, which is equivalent to sailing five miles per hour. If you go to Taiwan at this rate, it will take at least sixty or seventy hours. Coupled with the rest time at night, I am afraid it will take six or seven days to arrive, and Zhu Youzhen's heart can't help but cast a shadow.

Because six or seven days is not a long time, but the sea is the most unpredictable, and now there are no satellite cloud images and weather forecasts, who knows when the sky will change? If the sky is cloudless at the time of departure, and a typhoon suddenly strikes halfway down the road, the consequences are unimaginable. Although he has escaped death many times, it can only be regarded as good luck, but a person's luck cannot always be so good.

However, Zhu Youzhen just buried these worries in his heart and did not tell Li Zhenyan. Li Zhenyan is in great interest now, and she was already very happy to accompany Zhu Youzhen to row a boat, but after boarding Huangwei Island, she found that it was a bird paradise, full of beautiful boobies, seagulls and albatrosses.

At that time, it is the time when the birds return to their nests at dusk, and a large flock of birds that go out to forage for food flutter their wings and fly, and after flying around the island gracefully several times, they land on the island densely, huddled together and chirp. It may be that few humans arrive in Huangweiyu, and these birds are not afraid of people, but staring curiously at Zhu Youzhen and Li Zhenyan with small eyes.

Li Zhenyan was childlike, took out some dried fish from the boat, and threw it to a group of seagulls nearby. When these cute birds saw that they had food to eat, of course they swarmed up and ate them all in an instant. After eating, he was still unsatisfied, and he screamed around Li Zhenyan, which meant that he didn't have enough to eat and still wanted to eat. was so panicked that Li Zhenyan waved her hand again and again: "No, there really isn't!" ”

Zhu Youzhen didn't realize it, and hurriedly rushed to the reef to disperse the seagulls and rescued Li Zhenyan back on the canoe. Because it was getting late, they anchored on the shore of Huangweiyu and slept soundly to the sound of the waves and the chirping of birds.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Youzhen and Li Zhenyan traveled all over the island hand in hand. I saw that there were nests and eggs everywhere, and I leaned over to see them, and some seabirds saw them and surrounded them ignorantly, treating them as rare animals. Zhu Youzhen wanted to pick up a few bird eggs as a souvenir, but Li Zhenyan stopped him distressedly: "We have enough food to eat, so don't harass these cute birds!" ”

Huangweiyu is not very big, and after Zhu Youzhen carved a tablet on it to declare sovereignty as usual, the two began to return. On the return trip, they were silent, Li Zhenyan was reminiscing about this wonderful trip to Bird Island, and Zhu Youzhen was more thinking about whether to risk going to Taiwan.

After sailing like this for nearly forty miles, the island in sight has become larger and larger, and it has become within reach. The cooperation between the two people is becoming more and more tacit, and the canoe is cleaving the waves on the sea, moving forward steadily, and it seems that in half an hour, the two can return to their love nest to rest.

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen suddenly heard a horn. Immediately after that, a three-masted wooden boat with white sails came out from behind the island.

The ship was clearly very different from the Fukufu's appearance, it had a double deck with the bow and stern held high. In addition to the shangman, there is also a diagonal spinnaker, and the hull is more than 20 zhang long, and it looks like it is at least more than 2,000 materials. And the most obvious feature is the dense gun ports on the sides of the ship, each with a black hole in the muzzle, pointing terrifyingly into the distance!

Zhu Youzhen was also a lover of the game "Age of Discovery" in his previous life, and he recognized it at a glance: Isn't this a Spanish galleon!

Just when the two of them were stunned, they saw a puff of white smoke suddenly coming out of a gun port on the sailboat. Immediately afterwards, a deafening cannon sound was heard, and then the sea not far away was stirred up by the cannonballs and the water column soared into the sky!

"Oh no, they're attacking us!" Zhu Youzhen was taken aback, and hurriedly turned the bow of the boat with Li Zhenyan, and rowed desperately in the direction away from the galleon.

But how can a canoe powered only by oars be as fast as a galleon with full sails? Within a few minutes, the galleon was less than a hundred meters away from the canoe, and fired several shots in succession, landing on the canoe's path.

Zhu Youzhen knew that this was the other party's warning to himself, if he continued to run, it would be easy for people to bombard the canoe and blow him and Li Zhenyan to pieces. So he had to sigh, throw away the oars in his hand and say, "Zhenyan, don't row!" ”

Soon, a small boat was laid down on the galleon, and a dozen sailors stood in the small boat, either with arquebuses or sharp blades. When the two boats gradually approached, a red-haired sailor led by Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly.

Zhu Youzhen didn't understand a word, but felt that the other party's language seemed to be a little close to German, and it didn't seem to be very similar. Obviously, the sailors on this galleon are all Europeans, but Zhu Youzhen does not know who they are, what they are doing here, and why they are chasing themselves.

Suddenly, he remembered that English is the language of the world, and maybe the other party can understand it. So he hurriedly said in broken English: "Don't get me wrong, we are just fishermen in distress, there is no malice, you should save us!" ”

It's okay not to say it, Zhu Youzhen said English, and the sailors on the opposite side were all very nervous, immediately raised their guns to aim, and shouted viciously and gestured, signaling him to surrender immediately.

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen knew that it was useless to resist, and there were no weapons on the ship at all, so he couldn't resist if he wanted to. Therefore, I had to whisper to Li Zhenyan: "Don't resist yet." There may be some misunderstanding, but after a while, it will be a last resort, you look at my eyes, let's fight to the death! ”

Li Zhenyan had no choice but to obey orders. Then the sailors jumped up, shoved them into their boat, and returned to the galleon. As for the canoe, it was abandoned on the sea. Seeing that the fruits of his months of hard work were gone, Zhu Youzhen's heart was like a knife, and at the same time, he hated these foreign sailors.

A short time later, the two were escorted to the galleon. Because they were unarmed, the sailors were not afraid of their resistance or escape, and did not tie them with ropes.

Amid the unbridled cheers and whistles of dozens of sailors around them, the two were taken to a man who looked like a captain reluctantly. The sailors muttered a few words to him, and saw that the man's face changed, and he gave a loud command.

Immediately, a young white man was pushed up, and it seemed that he was the same as Zhu Youzhen, and his identity was also a prisoner. The captain pointed at Zhu Youzhen and muttered a few words to him, only to see that the young man suddenly cast an eager gaze at Zhu Youzhen, and asked in English, "Are you English?" Or have you ever been to Britain? What is your name? ”

"No, I'm Chinese. My name is You Jian. Zhu Youzhen replied in English.

"English-speaking Chinese!" The young man even switched to a strange Chinese dialect and cheered, "How lucky, God forbid!" You don't have to be afraid, I can be your friend. My name is Charlie. ”
