Chapter 5 Crises abound
"Not good!"
Chen Ying exclaimed, she pointed ahead, "Wu Jin, look!" ”
Wu Jin looked back, and was immediately stunned, their big ship was actually on fire, the sails and masts were burning, and another big ship of the Baisha Society was already close to their big ship...... Due to the sudden explosion of two ships outside the two ships, the White Sands Society changed its strategy, and they no longer drove away, and launched another strong attack.
The Baisha Society's ship had a small load and a fast speed, and the silver ship specially slowed down in order to wait for Chen Ying and Wu Jin, and was caught up in a moment.
This time, the White Sands Society no longer attacked sneak attacks, but attacked head-on, and the two big ships quickly approached, 'Boom! With a bang, the two large ships collided violently, and the silver-carrying ship tilted violently and nearly capsized, and almost all the people on deck fell to the ground.
This opportunity was seized by the White Desert Society, and two planks with sharp hooks were mounted on the silver ship one after another, connecting the two ships together, and nearly a hundred pirates of the White Desert Society rushed towards each other's big ships with shouts, they held steel knives in one hand and shields in the other, and rushed to the silver ship with a roar.
The people of the Phoenix Society saw that the bow and crossbow failed, and they also drew their horizontal knives to fight, they only had twenty-eight people, and more than a dozen crew members were unarmed, they were already frightened, and five or six people were killed in a moment, and the rest of the crew were frightened and scattered, and they all fled into the lower level of the cabin, Wei Ming and the Qi brothers also followed them to hide in the bottom cargo compartment of the cabin, which was the cabin containing fifty large boxes of silver, and the door was made of cooked copper, and it was extremely difficult to break open after being locked, which was their last hope of escape.
More than a dozen Baisha Club pirates chased to the bottom, and the desire for a million taels of silver inspired their wild surnames, and several big axes took turns to slash the iron gate..... "Bang! Boom! ”
The heavy chopping sound mixed with the screeching sound of the copper door tearing echoed in the cabin, the crew covered their ears and squatted in the corner in pain, Wei Ming's face was pale, he leaned on a large silver box and stared blankly at the iron door, without any expression on his face, while the Qi brothers hid behind a box of silver ingots with their heads in their hands and cried, and the fear of death permeated every corner of the cabin..... The battle on the deck was extremely fierce, twenty-eight dead soldiers of the Phoenix Society and nearly ninety white sand pirates fought together, the Phoenix Society was obviously at a disadvantage, there were constant screams on the deck, a strong man was cut off his right arm and fell in a pool of blood, before he died, four pirates grabbed his feet and left arm and threw him into the sea.
Another small leader of the Phoenix Society, Yang Er, finally ran out of strength after killing three enemies in a row and was cut down with a knife...... The mainmast had been set on fire, the white sails were blazing in the night sky, and at the third mast at the stern, the battle was fiercest, Yu Hailan was discovered by the pirates, such a beautiful woman made the pirates feel like crazy, and a dozen pirates swarmed up and besieged her, at first forcing her to surrender with a smile on the silver face.
"Little lady, obedient and obedient, we will feel sorry for you..... Yes! ”
Before he finished speaking, he was pierced through the throat by Yu Hailan's sword, and another big man stopped her waist and hugged her, and was kicked away by her, the long sword was stabbed sharply, and the blood burst out, and in the blink of an eye, three pirates died under her sword.
After being killed by three people in a row, the pirates finally realized that something was wrong, and began to frantically slash at her from all directions, Yu Hailan fought and retreated, retreating to the high mast platform, at this time, the wind sounded behind his head, and a pirate jumped down from above, trying to knock her down from behind, but Yu Hailan pierced his chest with a backhand sword.
With a scream, the pirate tumbled down the deck, but took her sword away, she was bare-handed, all the pirates were overjoyed, and pounced on her together, Yu Hailan bit her lip, she jumped on the high platform of the tail mast, grabbed the cable at random and jumped, and gently climbed onto the mast.
Two pirates followed her up the mast, one of whom was kicked in the right eye by her, and fell off the deck screaming, while the other pirate took the opportunity to grab her ankle, and with a laugh, he pulled her downward, trying to pull her off the deck, and at this moment, a crossbow arrow shot like lightning, through the brain, and the arrow peeked through the forehead, and with a muffled grunt, nailed the pirate alive to the mast.
Immediately after the four arrows roared, the four pirates were hit by the arrows one after another, screaming and rolling off the deck, the sudden change surprised the remaining seven pirates, and turned back together, only to see a young man standing on the side of the ship more than 20 steps away, holding a bow and crossbow, it was Wu Jin who had just climbed on the ship, he found his bow and crossbow on the side of the ship, and saw Yu Hailan's crisis at a glance, he did not hesitate to attack.
As soon as the seven pirates turned around, he fired three more arrows in succession, and three pirates fell to the ground with arrows, and one of them fell to the sea screaming.
The remaining four pirates were so frightened that they jumped off the high platform, but Chen Ying came like a shadow, she was like a cheetah lurking in the grass, she shot like lightning, and the water thorn in her hand was extremely powerful, stabbing three people to death in an instant, and the other person was so frightened that he jumped directly into the sea.
"Thank you!"
Yu Hailan jumped lightly from the mast and drew her sword, she suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said to Wu Jin: "You go to the silver cabin, your eldest brother and they are besieged there." ”
Wu Jin was startled and rushed into the cabin like a strong wind, and the click of an axe smashing through the door was heard from afar.
"Bang!" Outside the bilge, there was still the sound of slashing.
The pirates in the bilge were still unsuccessful, the gate of the bilge was extremely thick, and after smashing the iron sheet on the outside, there was a copper plate three inches thick inside, and the walls of the ship were all made of copper plates, which had been chopped to the ground, but fortunately, the pirates had only found three large axes, and their minds were relatively dull, and they did not think to try it from the side cabins.
Rao was so, the copper plate on the wall of the ship was thin, and it had been split a foot-wide opening, and the light from outside shone into the cabin, and the long knife pierced through the gap, and the blade shimmered with the luster of death.
In the cabin, Wei Ming commanded everyone to push the silver box against the copper door and bulkhead, the survival of the ** made everyone work together, dozens of large silver boxes were densely packed against the dead hatch, they picked up the iron crowbar stacked in the corner, ready to fight hard, Wei Ming also picked up one, the heavy crowbar made him very uncomfortable, and he didn't know if he could fight these murderous pirates.
'Click! There was another loud bang, and the sharp blade of the axe slashed at the gap, and the one-foot-long gap became two feet, and the pirates rejoiced, and a pirate leader who was eight feet tall and had a round waist and a monster roared, "Let me come!" "He found a big axe, pushed everyone away, picked up the big axe, and slashed at the gap with enough strength, 'Woo!' The wind blew, and in the midst of it, a bolt of crossbow bolt struck him from the side, and one shot into his temple.
'Whew! With a loud roar, the axe slashed off, cutting off half of the head of a pirate next to him, and the big axe was free, and the remaining strength was not extinguished, and another pirate was chopped to death.
The sudden change caused a big mess in the bilge aisle, the candle fell to the ground and went out, the aisle became pitch black, Wu Jin half-squatted on the aisle, and shot crossbow arrows into the aisle with his unprecedented speed, the black shadow flashed, it was an arrow that hit the other party, screaming one after another, and the sound of falling to the ground....... Wu Jin's horn box crossbow is made by a crossbow craftsman in the North Underworld for three years, the crossbow body is made of Northern Stygian ironwood, the crossbow machine suspension knife and other accessories are made of copper, and the string is made of a kind of dragon tendon, which is strong and not afraid of water.
The crossbow arrows used by Wu Jin are very short, but the arrows are coated with poison, a box of twenty, the thumb pulls the tension spring, the arrow will automatically fall into the groove, the key is the speed of winding, his crossbow is special, you can shoot steel balls, you can also shoot short arrows, just replace it with an arrow slot, on the side of the crossbow, there is a half-foot long copper rod, just like a bolt, pulled back, you can wind it, so that the winding becomes very simple, but the use of this crossbow requires a lot of strength, but this crossbow is tailor-made for Wujin.
He squatted in the darkest corner, like a good sniper, in the time of a cup of tea, all twenty crossbow arrows were fired, and the aisle became quiet, and after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement, and Wu Jin carried the bow and crossbow, 'Click! The fire was lit, and a cloud of light spread rapidly in all directions, illuminating the entire bilge passage, and the ground was covered with corpses, and many hands and feet were twitching, a sign that the poison was not yet dead.
He changed the fire fold to his left hand, and slowly pulled out the horizontal knife, there were only fourteen people in total, but just now there were obviously fifteen people, and there was one less person, and there were smooth bulkheads on both sides of the aisle, and there was no place to hide at all, Wu Jin walked more than a dozen steps, and came to the vicinity of the hatch, under the candlelight, a faint figure appeared on the ground, and he stabbed at the top of his head with a knife, only to hear a scream, and a person fell heavily from the top of his head, and the horizontal knife pierced his heart.
"Wu Jin, is that you?" A sound came from the cabin.
Wujin was overjoyed, and asked anxiously: "Big brother, are you okay?" ”
"We're all fine, you don't have to worry about us, get on deck."
Wu Jin quickly stuffed all the weapons on the ground into the silver cabin from the gap, and stacked more than a dozen corpses to block the two-foot-long gap, and then shouted to Wei Ming: "Big brother, don't come out, stay in the cabin." ”
He was worried about the situation on the deck, changed an arrow box, and ran to the deck, at this time the situation on the deck has improved, due to Chen Ying's participation in the war, the Baisha pirates began to suffer heavy casualties, if it is a one-on-one fight, Chen Ying and Yu Hailan's martial arts are also between the best, and at most they can only fight eight to ten pirates.
But her body has a flexibility and agility that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, she is more like a female cheetah foraging in the jungle, she uses all the terrain, masts, high platforms, and cabins as cover, in the dark night and firelight like a ghost, she is using two water spines as weapons, the long sharp water spines pierced into the heart of people, killing with one blow, only in a short time after Wu Jin entered the cabin, nearly twenty white sand pirates have died under her water spines.
Nearly 100 Baisha pirates have been killed and wounded, only forty people remain, and only twelve of the twenty-eight Phoenix Society people remain, as Wu Jin joined the battle group, the situation gradually changed, he climbed the tail mast, like a sniper, shooting the enemy in the dark, Yu Hailan always became the target of pirate killing, she was fighting five people alone, five burly pirates held shields and long knives, trying to surround her, and Yu Hailan was always agile to swim, her body was like a lotus flower spinning on the deck, she would never let the other party surround herself, But she used her elusive swordsmanship to kill two people in a row, and the pirates who besieged her became three.
A cold arrow whistled and struck one of the pirates in the back of the neck, and he snorted and fell headlong, while the other beside him was stunned when another crossbow arrow silently shot into the back of his heart, and he screamed, and his shield and long knife fell to the ground and fell limply on the deck.
The last man was shot in the cheek with an arrow, and he roared like a madman, rushed to the side of the ship, and fell headlong into the sea.
In an instant, the three pirates besieging Yu Hailan were all killed under the arrows, and Yu Hailan looked around in surprise.
"Senior sister!" Wu Jin winked at her mischievously, his index finger and thumb folded into a circle, and greeted her, Yu Hailan found Wu Jin hiding on the mast, she was in the autumn waves, and smiled at him brightly, beautiful as a lotus.
........ The more the White Sand pirates fought, the ghostly girl in black and the cold arrows from nowhere, caused them to suffer heavy casualties, and every White Sand pirate was terrified, and then they found that they only had more than 20 people left, 'Chirp-' A leader blew a whistle, and the remaining 20 or so pirates jumped into the sea and swam to the big ship in the distance, and as the big ship of the White Sand Society turned around and left, the deck finally fell silent.
Although the Baisha pirates suffered heavy casualties, they also suffered most of the casualties, and the twenty-eight Phoenix Society elites brought by Chen Ying were killed and wounded eighteen people, and only ten people remained, and Heimi was also slashed in the back with a knife, dying.
What's worse is that their mainmast has burned out and fallen into the sea, and the big ship has lost control, rising and falling on the dark and boundless sea, as if a big wave will overturn them at any moment.
"How is he?"
Wu Jin squatted beside Heimi, and asked Yu Hailan, who treated Heimi's injuries, worriedly, Heimi's injuries were very serious, and he was slashed on his right shoulder blade with a knife, and even Bai Sensen's bones were seen.
"Childe.... I'm a cat... Can't die! Heimi said in a low voice, intermittently.
"That's the case, if he has faith in himself, he can't die!"
Yu Hailan quickly used Luo Hanguo's high-grade distilled liquor to clean the wound of black rice, and his face was deformed in pain, Yu Hailan said: "Although he can escape a catastrophe, he will have to lie down for at least two or three months, and if he is careless, his right hand will be useless." ”
Wu Jin patted Heimi's hand, stood up, and slowly walked to the side of the ship, with a burst of anxiety in his heart, although the three pirate ships that intercepted them were wiped out, their own ships also suffered heavy damage, the main mast was not, and they couldn't control it at all by relying on only two auxiliary masts.
At this time, the big ship is drifting in the direction of the East China Sea, and twenty miles in front of it is Crab Foot Island, and now it is only three watches, and they will arrive before dawn, where the reef is dense, if the ship cannot control it, it is likely to be hit by the reef to pieces, and even worse, there is very likely that there is a brigade of the Baisha Society waiting for them in front.
"Without Jin, the danger has not been lifted.....
Chen Ying slowly walked to his side, her voice was also full of worry, and her eyes were staring into the distance.
