Chapter VII Pirates

Although the atmosphere on the ship was not as lively as before, most of the residents on this island were naturally optimistic, and although they were also a little worried about the incident in Liuzhou last night, they were more of a gossip mentality. Moreover, the Chen family's ship has always been safe, and the route of the Xingqi Strait is not far, and there has never been anything wrong with it for so many years, so everyone still talked and laughed along the way.

"If you want me to say, those pirates are also stupid, it seems that the number of people on the watchtower on the other side is going to increase again." One of the ways.

"Hey, I heard that those pirates are mainly here for revenge this time, and one of the dozens of heads on the other side is the head of the pirates. In fact, it was not the shops that really suffered in Liuzhou last night, but the yamen, you don't know, last night the yafu in Liuzhou almost kicked those pirates in their entirety, and even the prisoners in the prison escaped! A man dressed in a short shirt said matter-of-factly.

"How do you know? So what happened? "Everyone was hung up on their appetites, some didn't believe it, and some asked questions.

"My second brother is setting up a stall on the street near the Yamen, and he doesn't know anything." The man said with some pride, and then continued, "The pirate's murder this time was planned a long time ago, and the leader is the son of the pirate leader who was beheaded by the government last time, and he came to avenge his father." I heard that this pirate is very remarkable, after his Lao Tzu was captured alive by the government last year, he only went ashore to negotiate with the government, and then the talks collapsed, and he was able to escape under the siege of hundreds of officers and soldiers. ”

"We all know about last year, tell me about last night, but all the prisoners in the prison ran away last night? Isn't that the people going to be afflicted? ”

"How is it possible, they were all arrested before they ran out of the yamen, who doesn't know that in addition to the officials and soldiers in Liuzhou City, there is also a black-clothed cavalry guard who comes and goes like the wind, and they are all good players who can run on land and swim in the sea. When the pirates came ashore, they were just sending their heads to the people, not to mention the prisoners in the prison who were still handcuffed and handcuffed. ”

"Well, blow it again, as if you saw it with your own eyes." Someone laughed.

"Hey, I didn't see it with my own eyes last night, but when the pirates came ashore to commit the murder last year, I was in Liuzhou. Hmph, Lao Tzu saw a black-clothed cavalry guard with his own eyes at that time, and as soon as he stabbed it, the head on the pirate's neck fell to the ground, and the blood sprayed three feet high, and then the black-clothed cavalry guard stabbed again, and another pirate's head flew out, and it was a blink of an eye before and after! The man's eyebrows fluttered, and he was talking with his hands and feet, so that he was not excited. Although the people around him were skeptical, they all listened to it quite excitingly, and even Tang Lu'er couldn't help but ask: "Who are the black-clothed cavalry guards, could it be that they are special forces equipped by the government?" ”

"What special forces?" The man turned his head and saw that it was a little girl, so he generously explained, "Little girl, don't you know, you look there, look at the mountain over there, do you know what kind of place it is?" Tell you, the whole mountain is the back garden of Jinyuan, Jinyuan is the palace of King Anyuan, Liuzhou is the fief of King Anyuan, and the black-clothed cavalry guards are the soldiers and horses under King Anyuan. I heard that the black-clothed cavalry guard only obeyed the orders of King Anyuan, and even the emperor couldn't call him. It just so happened that the ship was about to sail to the Liuzhou wharf, Tang Lu'er followed the direction of the man's finger, looked through the window of the cabin, and saw from a distance that there was a green mountain on the opposite bank sitting in the sun, floating among the white clouds.

Tang Lu'er leaned on the window and looked at the mountain far away in the sky, she was a little surprised, she didn't know how many times she had been back and forth on this road before, and now she knew that the mountain on the other side actually had an owner. Tsk, what a big stroke, I actually enclosed a whole mountain as my own back garden, the power is monstrous, and the life is corrupt and corrupt.

The uncles continued to talk about it, Tang Luer thought about his reverie, pirates, palaces, and cavalry guards...... It's really worth crossing, and this world is too exciting!

After a short time, the boat docked, and Tang Luer came out of the cabin to look at the pier, and found that today's dock was indeed a little more solemn than in the past. Not only were there a few officers and men around, but several warships were dispatched to the sea, and every ship that came to the port, whether it was a fishing boat or a cargo ship, had to be inspected a nautical mile away, and when the ship had docked, it had to be searched again.

"Tang girl, today's situation is special, my boat won't stop here for long, at most it will have to leave in an hour and a half, do you have time to buy medicine?" When Tang Lu'er was about to get off the boat, the boat boss hurriedly said something to her.

From the pier to the medicine hall, if you walk fast, it will only take an hour to go back and forth. Tang Lu'er thought about it and nodded: "It's in time, I'll come back after taking the medicine, and I don't dare to go casually like this today." ”

The captain of the ship nodded, but he saw that the officers and soldiers on the shore always caught people who got off the boat from time to time for questioning, and some even had to be searched. The boat boss retracted his gaze, and then looked at Tang Lu'er's small body and innocent appearance, he hesitated for a while and then called Tang Lu'er and said: "Girl, you can take this brand, this is my girl's brand, she went home to see me yesterday, but she left the brand on me." If any officer or soldier stops you later, you will show them this sign, so that most of them will not embarrass you. ”

Tang Lu'er recognized the brand, almost everyone in the Chen Mansion had a small bronze medal like this, divided into one, two, and three grades, and now this is a second-class maid's brand. If you lose this thing, you will not only be reprimanded by the owner of the house, but also lose money yourself. Tang Luer wanted to refuse, but when she saw that some people over there were stopped by officers and soldiers, she interrogated someone who had not played. She was worried that if she encountered this situation herself, it would not be good to delay the boarding time, and besides this pier, she would encounter such a situation on the way to the medicine canteen.

"Thank you, Uncle Chen, I'll buy you puff pastry peanuts for you to eat tonight." Tang Luer took the small bronze medal and said with a smile while putting it in her hand.

"Or the girl knows what the uncle is thinking, okay, the uncle will thank you today." The boat boss laughed, and told her to go early and return early, and let her get off the boat.

Sure enough, as soon as she walked out of the dock, she met two officers and soldiers who stepped forward to stop her, Tang Lu'er hurriedly took out the sign of Chen's mansion, saying that she was a maid who came to buy things for the girl. The two officers and soldiers looked at the sign carefully, asked her a few more questions, and saw that she answered fluently and did not see anything wrong, so they let her go. Tang Lu'er breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that she had just taken Uncle Chen's brand, otherwise she would have to delay a lot of time.

On the way to the medicine canteen, I really saw that several shops obviously had traces of burning, and more of them were a mess, which looked like they had been looted, and the pedestrians on the street were not panicked, but mostly had expressions of righteous indignation. Tang Lu'er hurried while praying in her heart that nothing would happen to the medicinal canteen.

So I hung my heart all the way, and it wasn't until I saw that the medicinal canteen appeared in front of me intact that I finally let it go.

It is estimated that there were a lot of people who were injured last night, so there are a lot of people in this medicine canteen today, and there is an endless stream of people who take medicine and ask for doctors. Tang Lu'er walked around for a while before finding a guy who could temporarily free his hand, explained his intention, and successfully got the medicine after a while.

When I returned to the wharf, it was past noon, and there were already more than a dozen passengers on the Chen family's boat, and the captain of the boat was standing on the wharf to make friends with the officers and soldiers, begging him to wait a little longer, but no one came. Tang Lu'er glanced at it, hurriedly ran over and said loudly, "Uncle Chen, I'm back." ”

"Alright, alright, come up." The boat boss smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, arched his hand to the official on the dock, and then signaled to start immediately.

The ship left the port, and after traveling for half an hour, Tang Lu'er walked out of the cabin and saw that the boss of the boat was standing on the bow of the boat looking into the distance, so she walked over, took out the bag of puff pastry peanuts she had just bought and said with a smile: "How hot the sun is, Uncle Chen, why don't you go into the cabin to rest, do you want me to have a drink with you." ”

"Heh, dare to drink at noon, I'm not afraid that your grandmother will find out and beat you." The boat boss turned his head and saw that it was her, and immediately smiled, then twisted a few peanuts she had sent and threw them in his mouth and chewed them.

Before they could talk a few words, a crew member who was adjusting the sails next to him suddenly shouted: "Uncle Chen, look, are those two boats over there a little strange!" ”

The captain of the ship squinted his eyes and glanced at it, took out his binoculars and looked at it for a while, and then said with a solemn expression: "I'm afraid I've encountered pirates." After he finished speaking, he turned around and shouted loudly: "Big guy, prepare, pull up the Chen family's flag, and be careful to avoid them!" ”

Tang Lu'er asked the boat boss to push him back into the cabin, and the atmosphere on the boat suddenly became tense, and some of the dozen or so passengers suddenly turned white with fright, and said that they would not take this boat today; Some of them don't care, saying that the Chen family's boat will not have an accident, and there have been such things before, all of which are thrilling and dangerous; Tang Lu'er sat aside with the bag of medicine in her arms, ignoring what the people next to her were saying, just looking out with worry, feeling very bad that danger was coming.

Time slipped by bit by bit, and about two quarters of an hour later, the sound of the captain negotiating with the other party suddenly came from outside, and only halfway through his words, the whole ship suddenly shook violently, as if it had been hit by something. This was like a signal of an official disaster, and the passengers suddenly screamed loudly, and Tang Lu'er was also shaken by this movement, causing her body to roll off her seat.

Before the ship could be stabilized, someone rushed into the cabin with a broadsword, and the two passengers sitting closest to the door of the cabin were the first to suffer.

Seeing the blood spurting out like a faucet, Tang Luer realized that this was not a dream, and such a cruel reality was shown naked in front of him. Everyone was frightened, the screams were endless, Tang Lu'er shrank on the ground and didn't dare to stand up, and another fierce man rushed over and said: "Don't kill them first, escort them out,, the warship behind is chasing too closely, they know that we are young and the master is here, it is estimated that we are going to shoot here, and we have to block these people." ”

So including Tang Luer and the captain of the ship, a total of sixteen innocent people who were still alive on the ship lined up and stood at the bow of the ship, greeting the cannon fire that I don't know if it would come.
