530 The Importance of Food

He covered his mouth with his hand, and his cheeks twitched slightly...

"What's wrong?" I asked him with a frown.

"It's supposed to be bad, a little rancid, it's a disgusting taste." Storm Shanqing gritted his teeth and said, turning over the half of the steamed bun, and sure enough, he could see a layer of mold on the surface of the skin, "Lao Tzu has never eaten this kind of thing in his life!" ”

I sighed and could only pat him on the shoulder.

said that despite that, Storm Shanqing still smothered the half of the steamed bun in one gulp. The other brothers also choked several times while eating, and finally kept patting their 'chests' before they could barely swallow.

After the two pirates finished dividing the food, they didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, but sat on the two empty barrels again, and continued to cross Erlang's 'legs' and 'smoke' cigarettes and chat, and while chatting, they looked at us in the cabin with a wicked smile, and their eyes were like clowns in a circus.

I stared at the two men for a while, thought for a moment, turned around and gently pushed the bulking handle with my elbow, and said, "Hey, look at those two people." I pointed at the two pirates.

Stormy gave them a glance and asked me, "What's wrong?" ”

"They are Chinese." I said in a deep voice.

"How do you know?" Storm Handle Qing raised his eyebrows.

"It can be seen from some of the behaviors and details." I said lightly.

Those two pirates were both yellow-skinned yellow people.

Yellow people don't mean they have to be Chinese, and although they have always 'communicated' with each other in English, I heard some local Chinese accents in their spoken language. And they have cigarettes in their ears, which is a rare habit that only some Chinese have.

Tyranny 'groaned' for a while, and then said, "But even if they are Chinese, so what? ”

"Do you think they'll help us? Don't be ridiculous, they're pirates. ”

I was silent and speechless.

Tuzi finally swallowed the moldy steamed bun and tore off the outer skin, but he was still barely able to swallow it.

This kind of food, which is usually not eaten by pigs in the countryside, is now here, but it still needs to be desperately grabbed to get it!

Tuzi seemed to be choking badly, coughing desperately, and couldn't stop. We patted him lightly on the back, and the soil softened a little.

"Thirsty, thirsty." Tuzi said with an uncomfortable face: "It's too difficult to swallow this kind of thing when there is no water......

It's true that we haven't eaten all day, and we haven't drunk water all day.

Water is more important than food.

I was silent for a moment, then made a decision. I got up and walked slowly over to the two pirates.

Tuzi said in astonishment: "Ji Nan, what are you going to do?" ”

I looked back and smiled, "Nothing, wait until I get back." Then I kept walking.

The captives in the cabin were all trying their best to nibble on the unpalatable steamed buns in their hands, and not many people noticed me.

I crept up to the two pirates, and when I got closer, they were still chatting and laughing.

I stood beside them and whispered in Chinese, "Hello, friend." ”

The two pirates froze for a moment, then turned their heads to look at me suspiciously.

"Are you Chinese?"

I smiled faintly: "Yes." ”

The two pirates showed a sudden look: "Oh...... I heard that yesterday Jason captured a boatload of Chinese prisoners, is that you? ”

"Yes." I said with a wry smile again.

"Oh, yes, hey, hey......" The two pirates looked at each other, then smiled slightly.

My eyes were a little 'gloomy', but the moment they turned their heads, they smiled again.

"Then why did you come to greet us?" One of the pirates looked at me playfully, flicking his cigarette ash with his fingers, "You don't want our brothers to let you go, do you?" I'm sorry, we don't have the guts, Jason will kill us. Moreover, even if you are let go, you will have no way out. ”

I thought to myself, the Jason they were talking about, should be the black man who almost had my neck cut off before, right?

I'm certainly not stupid enough to ask them why they want to be pirates, that's stupid.

If you can change a 'bastard' with casual words of good persuasion, then there won't be so many bad people in this world.

I said to the two pirates, "I don't want you two to let our brothers go, I just want some food and water." ”

"Oh?" The pirate raised his eyebrows and groaned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while he said, "I'm sorry, we've run out of food." As he spoke, he lifted his buttocks and opened the lid of the barrel under him, and it was indeed empty.

I just glanced at it and didn't look at it, and I didn't believe that the two of them would give us food easily, whether there was food in it or not.

We're their compatriots, but I don't believe these two pirates have the idea of being a compatriot.

I silently put my hand in my pocket, and when I took it out, I already had an extra handful of green bills in my hand.

That's 5,000 dollars!

When I left, I had a lot of cash with me. Because I knew that we were going abroad, I didn't bring RMB, but US dollars, which was more convenient.

When the two pirates saw the stack of dollars, their eyes lit up, and they reached out and snatched the stack of dollars, and lit the money like two 'money fans'.

I didn't say a word, I looked at them with a blank face.

The two pirates seemed to be 'agitated' for a long time before they remembered that I was still standing in front of them, and coughed twice. Then one of the fatter pirates crooked his eyes at the skinny pirate, who nodded and ran away.

After a while, the skinny pirate returned, holding a clear plastic bag with a full bag of fresh bread and two bottles of mineral water of a foreign brand.

The thin pirate secretly stuffed me with bread and mineral water, then patted me on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay brother, for the sake of our compatriots, help you, don't tell others that our brothers gave it to you." After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and laughed evilly.

I sneered in my heart, but I didn't say anything, I quietly hid the bread and water in my clothes, and then crouched down and slipped back again.

Still no one noticed me.

In such an environment, everyone has to always guard whether the food in their hands will not be snatched away when they eat by themselves.
