Chapter 17: The Shark of the Blood Sea
After some counting, Yu Xiaotian and the surviving boatmen on the ship also found that the pirates were not much better off than their situation, and even suffered a lot more losses than them.
In the battle between the two parties just now, a total of sixteen pirates jumped over the pirate ship, and when the side of the ship fought, Ma Biao killed a few, and the rest of the pirates, including the pirate leader, were either killed or injured under Yu Xiaotian's cannon, and the remaining three could still jump, one ran fast and escaped back to the pirate ship, and the other two were chopped up by Yu Xiaotian on the spot, and the seriously injured were mended one by one by Feng Scar, and sent them back to the west, at this time there were only two lightly injured people, who were dragged to the mast by Feng Scar, It was sturdily tied to the mast.
So the situation on their ship is not good, the situation on the pirate ship side may be even worse, nearly thirty pirates came, most of them were killed or wounded, and two jumped into the sea and were abandoned by their accomplices, and they were desperately swimming towards the distance at this time, as for whether they could escape and swim back to land successfully, it was not something that Yu Xiaotian had to care about, anyway, he was not interested in salvaging them at this time.
At this time, the remaining pirates on the pirate ship will not reach double digits, and some of them are estimated to be wounded, and these remaining pirates have also completely lost their combat effectiveness after the death of the leader, and they should not think about going to sea again before returning to the lair to re-assemble their men.
As for the loss of the ship, Yu Xiaotian also focused on checking, after the battle just now, the already tattered sails on the ship were broken by rockets or firecrackers in a few places, fortunately, the fire was not ignited, so it did not cause greater losses, and now it can continue to be used, but the sail rope was cut off by the pirates, and it will take some effort to reconnect it for a while, but it can continue to be used after picking it up, as for the hull and the cargo on the ship, because the pirates have not had time to start plundering after they get on the ship, So there was basically no loss, so the loss of supplies on board was not very large.
Yu Xiaotian endured his nausea, patrolled around the boat, and after checking the situation, he turned his head to stare at the remaining boatmen on the ship.
In the past few days, most of these guys have played tricks on Xiaotian, but today, when they saw Yu Xiaotian's bravery, when they looked at Yu Xiaotian one by one, their eyes were already full of awe, and they shrank back one by one and huddled together, watching Yu Xiaotian patrol the boat from a distance.
These people are now full of doubts about Xiaotian's identity, they are very suspicious of why Yu Xiaotian is pretending to be dumb, and they can't figure out why Xiaotian did this, so at this moment, even the injured Liu Lao Liu seemed to look at Yu Xiaotian again, and there was a trace of vigilance in his eyes.
Yu Xiaotian thought back to the suffocation he had endured on the ship these days, and then looked at the frightened looks in the eyes of these remnant boatmen when they looked at him, and his heart was somewhat happy, and even a little bit of a feeling of raising his eyebrows. No matter what time it is in this world, the strong will be respected by others, and it seems to be an eternal theorem to have a big fist and a hard waist.
Looking at the bloody ship deck under his feet and the corpses all over his eyes, smelling the strong smell of blood in the air, Yu Xiaotian really couldn't stand it, so he stretched out his hand and shouted at the Feng Scar and the other three boatmen: "Why are you staring at me one by one?" Do you want to stay here and die?
Don't be fucking stunned! Wait a little longer, and these corpses will rot on the ship, and you can't kill us all? The four of you are unharmed, two of you are in a group, and one group is responsible for cleaning up the boat and throwing the bodies into the sea! The other two hurriedly packed up the sails and prepared to set sail, this place should not stay for a long time, the pirates will bring their accomplices back to retaliate, let's get out of here as soon as possible! ”
Yu Xiaotian's sudden huge change made the rest of the people on the ship a little afraid of him, no matter what age the people in this world are, they are soft and afraid of hard, hard and horizontal, and horizontal are afraid of life, just now Yu Xiaotian's style of not wanting to die made these people know that he is powerful.
So after listening to his shouting order at this time, Feng Scar and the other three boatmen didn't let go of a fart, and quickly agreed, so they simply divided the labor, and immediately began to work on the ship, two people were responsible for cleaning up the corpses on the deck, and the other two were busy starting to rearrange the severed sails, so that the ship could recover power as soon as possible.
Feng Scar and a boatman teamed up, grabbed the corpse left by the pirate and lifted it up, and threw it into the sea with a puff, the sea surface was suddenly covered with blood, and the rich smell of blood soon began to spread in the sea, and it didn't take long for everyone to see a few shark's dorsal fins exposed on the sea surface in the distance, and quickly swam towards the boat.
These sharks are all sharks swimming nearby, after smelling the smell of blood in the seawater, they were immediately attracted to it, and after swimming to the side of the ship, these sharks aimed at the target, and suddenly dived down, and in the blink of an eye, they rushed out from under the sea again, and bit down on the corpses in the seawater, and tore them wildly, and in an instant, the sea surface was like a boiling pot, and more red blood water appeared, so that a large part of the sea near the ship was dyed blood red.
After a while, more and more sharks began to be attracted by the bloody gas in the sea from a farther place, and they rushed over from a distance, joining in this gluttonous feast, dozens of sharks began to tear and devour the corpses in the seawater, and the scene of flesh and blood flying was like another big battle, and the people on the boat were all frightened, and the timid man saw this scene, and also lay on the side of the boat and vomited.
At this point, Yu Xiaotian began to calm down, and gradually adapted to such a bloody scene, plus he deliberately didn't look at the scene in the sea more, so it was no longer as disgusting as just now.
At this point, he had to start rethinking his situation, and although the people on the ship were a little afraid of him now, they must have been wary of him at the same time, and would never treat him as their own anymore.
So his situation at this time is not optimistic, after a little consideration, Yu Xiaotian still decided to be stronger first, he must first suppress these boatmen, so that they dare not easily disadvantage himself, and in addition, he must gain their trust as soon as possible, otherwise once several people attack him at the same time, he really doesn't dare to guarantee that he will kill them all unscathed.
What's more, if he really kills these boatmen, even if he can kill these boatmen, how can he steer this boat to dock in the end? So for now, he must control the situation on the ship first.
So he reached out on the ground and picked up a waist knife left by the pirate head, after looking at it, it seems that this waist knife is in good condition, this knife is a standard Yanling knife style, it looks like it was used by the Ming army, the back of the knife is very thick, the knife body has a blood groove, the blade is sharpened very sharp, the length of the knife is about 90 centimeters, the length of the blade is about 70 centimeters, although it is a one-handed knife, but the handle is relatively long, you can also hold it with both hands, strengthen the strength of the chopping, a little affected by the Japanese knife, there are inscriptions on the knife body, It is written that the twenty-four years of Wanli is likely to be the waist knife used by the officers of the Ming Dynasty, but I don't know how Lu Dao fell into the hands of the pirates, it is really a good guy, so Yu Xiaotian unceremoniously took it for himself and tied it with a rope around his waist.
After having this thing to protect himself, Yu Xiaotian's waist pole became stiffer, straightened his waist pole, and stared at Feng Scar working on the boat with his hand on the handle of the waist knife.
Soon, Feng Scared and the others threw the bodies of the pirates on the ship into the sea, leaving only the bodies of the boatmen and the shipowner on the ship.
"This ...... Dumb...... Oh! No! It's a hero! What do you do with their corpses? Now that the owner of the ship is dead, the people on the ship have no backbone for a while, plus their lives were saved by Yu Xiaotian, looking at Yu Xiaotian's tall horses, and staring at them with a knife on their waists, these people involuntarily temporarily took Yu Xiaotian as the leader and obeyed Yu Xiaotian's orders.
Yu Xiaotian frowned, although he had been with these people for a few days, he didn't have much affection for these dead boatmen, and now that the weather was very hot, the bodies of these people could not be left on the ship, otherwise their corpses would soon decompose, and they might cause any trouble.
So he waved his hand and said, "Leave it in the sea too!" ”
Feng Scar hesitated, so they had to do it, although the Chinese have the concept of entering the soil for peace, but the people who run the boat on the sea also know that leaving a body on the boat will affect the living people on the ship, so sea burial is also a common thing, so they threw the bodies of these boatmen on the ship into the sea one by one, including Ma Biao's headless body, and only the body of Liu Shipowner was left behind, and they did not throw it into the sea.
Yu Xiaotian took advantage of this time, once again his thoughts turned sharply, thinking about the way out of the future, through this encounter with pirates, he felt that it was indeed very difficult to survive in this world, and now he landed ashore, it is not necessarily a wise move, in addition, he also understood a truth, if he wants to live, it is definitely impossible to pretend to be a grandson all the time, his character and temper do not allow him to do this, and the days under the fence are not the life he wants to live.
Looking at this sailing ship that was completely broken in his eyes before, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and his desire suddenly swelled a little, although he didn't know how much this ship was worth in this era, but one thing he knew very well was that it was very difficult for ordinary people in this era to have a ship of their own, and the value of this ship was definitely not low, otherwise these pirates would not have taken such a big risk and desperately wanted to take this ship.
If it were him a day ago, he hadn't thought that he would be able to own a ship anytime soon, but now there was such a great opportunity in front of him, the sudden attack of the pirates, killed the owner of the ship, and killed most of the people on board, making the ship temporarily an ownerless ship, although there are still the owner's domestic slaves on board, but if ...... He turned his head sharply and glanced at the boatmen, but quickly closed his gaze again.
