Chapter 228: Tiny Ants

"The rest of these medicinal muds, you can use them evenly. This is the holy medicine of this door, which has the miraculous effect of life and death, flesh and bones, and muscle building and blood replenishment, which is even more immediate. ”

When everyone removed the bandages and applied the debridement medicine, they only felt that the pain was completely gone, the cool bones, and the strength of the body was restored, and the eyebrows were suddenly overjoyed, which was the euphoria of a long drought and nectar, and the happiness of ascending from hell to heaven.

This time, Xu Si and the others kowtowed a few times sincerely, and Yongchang also accepted the salute calmly.

Everyone didn't hesitate at any time about Yongchang's orders, and let Lao Zou and the three of them sleep and recuperate from their injuries, and arranged their own care. Xu four or five followed Yongchang and came to the bow of the boat.

Facing fifteen lazy sailors, Yongchang couldn't help but cool his face, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he stabbed at a group of sailors who were standing softly, and the black short knife was upside down, as if he was going to choose someone to devour at any time.

The murderous aura made more than a dozen strong men tremble like substance, like a flock of frightened quails, trembling.

"I can see that you are just eating at sea, maybe you can only eat mixed bowls of rice if you are like a world, and everyone wants to have a way to live, so I don't blame you.

"Some of you have been soldiers, and you have come to me again when you are robbed by sea robbers, and you can steal and play tricks, and smear the soles of your feet with oil.

"You've survived until now, but where do you want to hide if the pirates chase you again?

"The ship is grounded, can you burrow into the belly of the fish?

"Look at these people, all of them are hanging lottery, what about you?

"Do you know what it means to be in the same boat? Do you know what it is, shame?!

"It's all a seven-foot-tall man, so I don't know how to blush?

"I just told the captain and a few of them, I don't collect waste here!

"If anyone doesn't have the courage and doesn't want to lay down a heart, there are two rows on the boat, I'm in charge, I'll give you one, enough food, fresh water, get my fucking eggs out of the way as soon as possible!"

The sailors were ashamed and unspeakable, and their heads shrank low, lest they attract Yongchang's attention, and although some people were not convinced, they did not dare to show hostility at all.

"If you want to stay, it is a guy on a boat, a brother, no longer an escort and a sailor, the ship has run aground, you don't need to drive the ship, what you have to do in the future is to follow the master, whether it is a poisonous dragon or a poisonous snake, see one to kill one, see two to kill a pair.

"You touch the thing down there, if it's a man with a handle, put away that hanging bird for me."

The sailors and guards straightened up. Yongchang didn't look at it, he hadn't spoken for so long, or he was talking to himself, he wanted to vent too much. continued to roar: "If you do a good job, Lao Tzu will be rewarded, and if you have made meritorious contributions, you will also be rewarded." I have a knife, I have wild beasts, I eat pork, I eat dog meat, there are things that are not as good as pigs and dogs, although come and try my dragon slaying knife. I have dragon slaying skills, killing pigs and dogs, and other idle things. ”

"I'll follow my eldest brother's orders!" Xu Si and the others were already convinced, and they bowed down one after another.

"I'll follow my eldest brother's orders!" Someone took the lead, and the sailors who followed the flow also bowed down, in the current situation, leaving the island is a death, not to mention the pirates who are chasing and killing, and the bad storm, even Yongchang will not necessarily keep them. To be in the same boat, we must be of the same mind.

After Yongchang finished speaking, he called Xu Si aside and asked about the situation of the two captives in the bilge. I only know that they are chasing all the way because there is something that the pirates are jealous of, and they are bound to get it, and they don't know anything else. The jumping knife hand is actually the cannon fodder who charges into battle, a little minion.

In other cases, there were also twenty or thirty people on the pirate clipper, and the leader was the younger brother of the poisonous dragon, known as the Yaksha, who liked to peel skin and cramp and eat human flesh raw, which terrified the merchants at sea.

Yongchang spent nearly a morning organizing a group of people on the ship, twenty usable strong men, divided into four teams, each team of five people. Grace and prestige were given, and all the guards obeyed orders.

As a guard, they generally have a little skill, and they admire the strong man with strong martial arts the most, and at this time, they feel that they are fierce again, and they have long regarded Yongchang as a first-class person.

A group is responsible for logistics and diet, taking care of the wounded, and those whose hands and feet are not very dexterous, as well as the three daughters of the Fan family are also included in this group, and the group leader arranges a simple and chubby man named Sun Da, who is said to cook good soup and make good dishes. This guy had a little skin on his hand, and he was the least injured among the guards, but he was lucky. In the morning, he was touched on his tongue, kowtowed like pounded garlic, and was bound to be tied to the anchor chain;

The second group selected five people with good eyesight, and after preparing to go to the island, they were responsible for climbing the heights to be on guard, observing the enemy's situation, and transmitting news. The leading guard is called Liu Yang, and there is another one named Meng Haishan, who looks clever and is also arranged in this group;

The three groups are responsible for the cooperation of the palace and the queen, assisting in the response, and serving as an ambush and a reserve for the assault when facing the enemy.

He killed people in anger in Dawang Town, offended the powerful, because of his extraordinary experience and knowledge, he was quite valued, and he was most familiar with the docks in various places, so he was often in charge of negotiations, and he was also a figure who could take charge of himself;

The four groups are the main force of the battle, and five strong men who are more outstanding in strength, speed and reaction ability are drawn out to form an assault force, with Lao Zou as the leader, and a group of six people who act with Yongchang. There is something to kill the enemy, nothing to hunt and fish.

As the captain of the guard, Xu Si is bold and righteous, has good skills, and is familiar with the crew, so he is the best candidate to be Yongchang's deputy.

After arranging the division of labor, Yongchang arranged for Xu Si to lift the two pirates in the bilge to the deck, tie them to the mast, and hand the dagger to the crew, so that one of them could stab him, and everyone would have blood on their hands, and they would not be allowed to hurt fatally.

It wasn't until the pirates were drenched in blood and their screams gradually faded that Yongchang cut the ropes and threw them far away into the sea, like throwing away a bag of garbage, which amazed a group of big men.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the sea water was like a boiling pot, and there were crocodiles, giant pythons, man-eating pomfret and other large and small water beasts drilled out of the dusky water, and after a while, the two human bodies were fragmented, and the flesh and blood dissipated, only to see a group of people creepy and cold. The timid person was even more trembling, cold sweat flowing, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he was wise not to abandon the ship last night.

This strange sea area is even Yongchang afraid.

In the face of the dangers hidden in nature, human beings are as small as insects and ants, relying on their own strength, they will be devoured in a moment.

After everyone calmed down, Yongchang arranged for a group of crew members to put down the boat and transport the wounded to the island and transfer the necessary supplies. Cane sugar, tobacco, spices, herbs, cloth, etc., were loaded as much as needed, and grain, oil, salt, wine, and fuel were all removed.

Yongchang got on the raft, Xu Si rowed, and the quick knife Zhang arranged for unloading and loading the ship, and led two small boats to follow behind the raft.

The transparent and soft raft is surprising, and even the steady Xu Si is full of curiosity, touching and pinching, and can't figure out what the material is.

On the beach, a black dot slowly approached, gradually becoming clear, yelling at the boat and the raft, hehe, this guy is working well together.

"Boss, what kind of monster is that?"

There are no bears on the island, and even if they appear on this island, it is already weird, and everyone has never seen this thing, so they naturally regard it as a monster. Xu Si is a northerner, who has walked the rivers and lakes, but he also has some knowledge.

"It was a black bear. It's just that I've never seen such a big one, and I'm afraid it can have a thousand pounds. Boss, is this the mythical beast raised on the island? “

Yongchang nodded yes.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were full of burning worship when they looked at him, obediently, adopting such a mighty giant beast as an island protector beast, it was really a master. Women, who are more likely to worship powerful men, have a little blur in their expressions, and there is a trace of smoke and water in their eyes.

The two boats behind saw the roar of the giant bear on the shore, and they hesitated to follow up.

Yongchang did not greet them, and asked the women to hold on to the ropes, and when the raft was about to dock, they jumped up, like a big peng spreading its wings, crossed the water surface of seven or eight meters, and landed lightly on the beach. The coquettishness of that moment turned all beings upside down.

The bear ran over and pestered Yongchang and licked affectionately, like a big dog that pleases and pleases.

"Xiong Da, today's performance is good, look at the reward."

In his hand, he took out a piece of bacon from the boat.

Yongchang ordered the men to carry the things on the ship to the shore, and made two more trips back and forth, bringing in enough supplies, and returning the weapons on the raft to a few guards and members of the third or fourth group. He took the black bear to open the way into the jungle on the shore, close to the fjord, lined with rocks, and after looking for two miles, he found a cave sheltered from the wind and rain, which could be used as a foothold by the sea.

It is about 20 miles away from the lake, so it is inconvenient to carry things, but it is too close to the sea and it is not easy to move in the event of an enemy attack. After thinking about it for a while, it was decided to put the logistics base by the lake, and the members of the logistics group, the reserve team and the three reconnaissance groups went to camp there and take away some of the supplies.

On this side of the fjord, the members of the combat group and the two reconnaissance groups were left to facilitate communication between the two sides.

The plan has been decided, and Yongchang has arranged for Xu Si to be responsible for tidying up the cave, carrying supplies, hiding the rafts and eliminating traces.

Yourself and the black bear went to find a way back to the lake. Although the flood has passed, the river is abundant and the undercurrent is so turbulent that it is impossible to follow the river, and it is estimated that it will be a few months before the dry season arrives before the river can dry up again and be open to human traffic.

As for crossing the rainforest, he didn't even think about the difficulty of overcoming obstacles for more than ten miles.

Walking along the beach towards the volcano, the terrain gradually becomes steep, with broken rocks and boulders, dense coasts, and gradually higher mountains.

The black bear probably guessed Yongchang's intentions, and "roared" twice, taking the lead and leading him into a narrow crack in the stone wall.

A glimmer of heaven.

The stone crack can only accommodate a person and a bear to pass side by side, the widest point is only five meters, the situation at the end is dangerous, and dozens of meters high, only a dim light can pass.

After walking hundreds of meters up the rock crevice, I finally reached the top of a rock, and my eyes suddenly opened up. Not far away, at the foot of the lake, under the high mountain waterfall, it seems to be extraordinarily quiet, as if it can accommodate the sorrow of eternity.

The black bear continued on, running all the way, through rocks and trees, following the path of countless beasts to the bottom of a cliff near the lake, and then lost its figure.

There, it is its lair, a group of caves.

Three staggered openings appeared in front of Yongchang.

Walk into the cave, cool and dry, there is a spacious stone hall inside, there are more than a dozen stone chambers connected, it seems to be a natural formation and then artificially excavated, the most spacious one in the middle has thirty or forty square meters, square on all sides, the opening is narrow, and a huge stone bed is placed in it.

On the wall of the cave, there is a familiar skull, as if it is seen in the cave in the valley.

There are also steps in the cave that connect the different caves, and there are two levels of caves upwards. Inside, there is room to stretch, which seems to lead to the belly of the mountain. The high and low places, the pool where the stone stalactites drip down, exudes bursts of cool air, which is comparable to the cold river Boyue Cave that Yongchang has visited many times.

In several places in the cave, there are even stones like tables and chairs placed, there are stone slabs that seem to be beds, and on the outside of the cave, there are smoky stone stoves, which are obviously the remains of predecessors, and people have lived here.

Moreover, the age is very old. The space is large enough to accommodate hundreds of people. One hole with three floors, it is also convenient for defense, as long as you hold the bottom floor, you can control the access, and the upper hole can also provide fire support.

Yongchang pondered for a moment, and had made up his mind to move.

Out of the cave, turn to look at the stone platform, there is probably only a mile road, side facing here. Grandma's, no wonder they came to steal food when they saw me leave.

This bear's den is also secluded enough, hidden behind the rock wall, and obscured by trees, so you have to be close to see it.

If he had known the shortcut, Yongchang would have walked three or four miles to the sea, and the location of the fjord was less than ten miles, and there was no need to drift nearly twenty miles of torrents. That is, there is a black bear, a native, who knows the animal path that usually goes to the beach to fish, and if it is an outsider, it will be difficult to find it.

Yongchang returned to the beach along the same road, leaving only two reconnaissance team members to pay attention to the sea situation, and the rest of the people all carried supplies to the lake, except for the seriously wounded and women, no one could make an exception, it was a black bear, and also camelped two large bags of rice, and followed Yongchang forward.

By the time the team had been transferred, the sun had set in the west, and it was almost dusk, and thinking about the experience of a day was comparable to being in a barren valley for more than half a year.

In a few days, when the supplies are transferred to Thailand, the people's hearts will be stabilized.

Yongchang's lonely and lonely desert island life has finally gained some popularity. Although it is difficult to unite the hearts of the people, there is no way out for a boatload of people, and there are chasing soldiers behind, and they are almost at the end of the road. Even if it may only be a temporary expedient measure to take refuge in Yongchang, I believe that after some time, he will naturally be able to clean up people's hearts and collect them for his own use.

Yongchang now urgently needs to strengthen his strength, a person is too small, he doesn't want to be a small ant, lost in the long river of history.
