Chapter 255: Pirates

Linjing is near the sea, and in the past, when it was not Linjing, it used to have close trade with an overseas island.

That island is called Washeng Island.

It is a place with an emperor, although it is small, but it is rich in products, and the people are also a little barbaric. He is best at making some utensils, and is known for producing a lot of pearls and other things.

Just like the ladies of Linjing, there are a lot of pearl corals from Sheng Island.

It's a pity that because of the establishment of Linjing, Hesheng Island was locked out of the country.

For many years, the ladies still used pearl coral, but the channel did not come directly from Hesheng Island.

Because of the severance of trade with the Great Jin, the economy of Hesheng Island was very poor in the past few decades. There is also frequent chaos in the country.

Because they have been attached for decades, they are used to absorbing the nutrients from Da Jin. Now that there is no such nutrient and the distance from other countries is too far, we can only be anxious.

Therefore, there are many pirates on Hesheng Island, robbing passers-by, as well as wealthy merchants in their own country. At one time, the people of Hesheng Island were miserable.

Later, because thieves were rampant until the domestic coup, the emperor was replaced by a pirate leader.

That is, today's Hesheng Island, Linjing people often call them island people.

Now, when the islanders got the news, they were naturally overjoyed to be able to make a fortune near Linjing.

A lot of things from Dajin are very valuable when taken out! For example, fine silk, fine porcelain. and beauties.

Because Hesheng Island is an island in the South China Sea, the sunshine is too abundant, so the girls in Hesheng Island are generally black and black, and there is nothing white.

The beauties from the south of the Great Jin Dynasty are particularly coveted.

Even if you can bring the beauties of Dajin to other islands in the west, you can sell them for a big price!

What's more, from their point of view, they don't need any too beautiful beauties, as long as their skin is better, even if they look average.

The group took advantage of the darkness to go ashore and slowly crept into a fishing village.

After all, it is very large outside the capital city, and even if there is a garrison, it is impossible to have any scruples about it.

And such a small-scale sneak attack would not have caused any big problems to Linjing.

There are other people's courtyards near the courtyard where Ning Zeli lives, and this place is basically the place where the powerful are home.

So in the past, he and Sheng Island occasionally came to sneak attack, and they didn't dare to come here.

Whether it's Ning Zeli, or the other people who live here haven't worried about this problem. For example, Peng Xiao, who has been here for a month.

Peng Xiao was unwell, and it had been more than a month since he came to recuperate, and he didn't bring a few people.

She was already worried about things at home, and everything in the family was not as good as before, so she just came with a girl, and there were only a few small maids in the courtyard.

The pirate led by him unfolded the portrait and muttered to the people around him for a long time, speaking in the island dialect, so no one could understand it.

But on that portrait, it was Ning Zeli.

More than 20 people cooperated tacitly, all of them were short island people, they carried drugs and hemp needles, and they rose and fell like birds flying in the night, and landed lightly outside the courtyard of the Ning family.

It wasn't until they entered the front yard that they were discovered, and by the time they found out about these people, the guards were already feeling top-heavy, and they were drugged.

This group of pirates were carefully selected, naturally they were good at martial arts, and they took advantage of the fact that everyone was unprepared, each of them was holding a short knife, and the knife fell in his hand, and soon two guards were killed.

The guards who followed Ning Zeli all had some skills, and they had never suffered this loss in their lives, but they lost two at once.

Fortunately, someone shouted loudly, which alarmed Ning Zeli.

It's a pity that Ning Zeli is only a civil official and doesn't know martial arts. In a panic, he could only stuff a cloth bag next to the pillow into the hand of Gongsun Kang, who rushed in: "Hurry up, there is a dark place behind you, hide." ”

"Grandpa, you're leaving!" Gongsun Kang and Feng Luping were in a hurry.

"It's too late, remember, you two have to assist Ning Zhi as if you were assisting me. Tell Ning Zhi that the Ning family will rely on her in the future. Tell Ning Yun Ning Xiang that you can't forget the family feud, and how the Ning family will go in the future, remember to ask Zhizhi. ”

"Grandpa!" Gongsun Kang and Feng Luping shouted.

"Tell the crown princess that her father has forgiven her."

Then, Ning Zeli pushed the two of them back.

The two of them naturally refused, but there were already footsteps coming.

Ning Zeli glared: "Didn't you say that you would listen to me for the rest of your life?" At this time, it is not compliant? ”

Naturally, two people will not follow, how can there be a master who dies and they live alone? At this time, they are willing to die! It's a pity that Ning Zeli was resolute and pushed the two of them forward on top of each other. Both of them are real readers, thin and weak.

But it's not a secret tunnel, it's just a hiding place. The two of them were pushed in, but they found that the door could not be opened at all, the thieves had already arrived, and they couldn't call the grandfather to waste his efforts at this time! After all, they still have responsibilities on them.

Gongsun Kang clutched the cloth bag tightly, tears fell down his cheeks, the two of them were a hundred years old together, and they didn't dare to cry.

Ning Zeli stood on the ground, wearing a shirt and waiting for the door to be broken.

Four or five pirates, and the leader looked at him. I muttered a few words.

Ning Zeli understood, but said, "Your portrait is very good, can I take a look?" ”

The man couldn't understand him, but luckily someone could translate.

And the man waved his hand and told him to bring it to him.

Ning Zeli looked at it and smiled: "I haven't seen anyone's handwriting for this painting, and I still owe the fire." He dropped the painting and asked, "Can you know who wants the old man's life?" ”

The man translated again, but no one answered Ning Zeli.

Ning Zeli smiled: "Okay, the old man won't lose if he dies at this age, let's do it, there is no injustice and no hatred, so let's leave a decent face for the old man." ”

When the man heard the translation of the people around him, he threw out his saber and said, "You are very brave, and I admire you." ”

Ning Zeli didn't pick it up, but said: "The old man is not wrong, I don't want to kill myself, please trouble you." ”

As he spoke, he sat down in his chair.

The man listened to the translation, raised his eyebrows, picked up the dagger again, and walked over.

"You're a great person, don't blame me." As he spoke, he plunged the short knife into Ning Zeli's chest.

Then he glanced at him: "I really admire you." ”

Say, bow your head and make a ceremony of their country, and do not draw a short sword. This is also their etiquette, respect for the opponent, just leave their short knife in the opponent's body.

"Because of admiration, I won't touch your home." Pirate Road.

Although the pirates didn't know it, it was just a separate courtyard.

They came and went as fast as they came, and overnight, they all left.
