The salty and wet sea breeze blew Su Muge's mind a little chaotic.

After nearly half a month of travel, they finally arrived at the beach.

On the wharf, workers came and went, and no one noticed the three people standing on the beach.

Ah Li walked to a cargo ship, didn't know what to say to the boatman, and then walked back to Jinglan and Su Muge.

"I've negotiated with the boatman, let's get on the boat."

Su Muge nodded, and the three of them got on the cargo ship together.

On the way here, Su Muge learned from Jinglan that in fact, there are still many small island countries on the sea, and these island countries have almost no contact with Xiliang Kingdom, and most of them live a life of mutual supply between islands.

However, the shipwrights of Xiliang Kingdom will go to sea at a fixed time, fill the ships with goods and sell them outside the islands, although the journey is dangerous, but the profits are very considerable.

Ah Li skillfully walked into the last room of the cabin, and occasionally there would be islanders who would take a ship to Xiliang and then take these merchant ships back, so the cargo ship would also prepare some rooms for those people.

Ah Li pushed open the door of the room and walked in, the room was small, with only a wooden bed and a small table and no chairs.

They prepared plenty of dry rations, and on board the boats the boatmen would only provide a ration of fresh water, nothing else, and if they wanted, they had to pay for it.

"You go to bed and sit and rest for a while, and I'll go up to the docks and buy some food." Ah Li put the burden on the table, they had to stay on this ship for at least five to ten days, and they couldn't just eat hard steamed buns these days.

With that, Ah Li pushed open the door and walked out.

After Ah Li left, Jinglan did not sit down, but opened the door and stood outside the door and looked around.

"Uncle, what are you looking at?"

Hearing this, Jinglan closed the door and came to sit down beside her. "Look who's on this boat."

Su Muge thought that he was just idle, so he didn't take his words to heart.

After a while, Ah Li came back, carrying a big bag in his hand, which contained some fresh fruits in addition to jerky.

Ah Li put everything on the table, found a clean place in the room and sat down.

"I'm ready to sail, you guys are all moving faster, like a turtle master, don't you want to spend the New Year at sea!"

"It's going to be a fast ship soon, and those who didn't get on the boat are going to get on the boat soon."

The noise outside the door is getting noisier and louder, and it looks like it's about to set sail.

Su Muge owed, in the past few days, she has become more and more sleepy, and she feels that it is no problem to sleep for twelve hours a day, if it weren't for her hunger, she wouldn't want to get up.

Jinglan saw that she was about to sleep when she lay down, so she reached out and pulled her up.

"It's not been long since I got up, why do I have to lie down again, don't sleep yet, wait until the boat is stable before sleeping."

Su Muge was a little surprised, this was the first time that Jinglan had stopped her from sleeping.

She always had a feeling that he was a little afraid of her falling asleep.

Hearing him say this, she did not force herself to lie down again, but sat on the bed and talked to them.

"Then uncle tell me about the island again."

"I don't know if you can eat small oily chicken on the boat."

“……”

The boat soon sailed like the sea, and in order to let herself sleep less, Su Muge would go to the deck to blow the sea breeze before dark to wake herself up.

Because almost all of the people on the ship were men, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, she also disguised herself as a man, and no one would notice her.

The sea breeze was blowing, and Su Muge leaned on the deck and squinted comfortably.

There was a sound of footsteps behind her, and she opened her eyes to look at the source of the sound, and saw a tall, thin man come out of the cabin, he was born very white, but this whiteness made people feel very unhealthy, like a pale without light.

He stood three steps away from Su Muge, looking at the sky that was gradually coming to an end.

With just one glance, Su Muge withdrew his gaze.

Seeing that it was getting dark, she could not stay on the deck, so she went back to the cabin.

Pushing open the door, Jinglan and Ah Li got a stool from somewhere, and the two of them were sitting boredly eating melon seeds.

"I'm a little hungry." Su Muge went to the bed and sat down.

Ah Li glanced at the buns on the table. "Eat."

On this day, he was eating steamed buns, and Su Muge felt that he really couldn't raise any appetite.

"It would be nice to have tender meat to eat at this time."

Ah Li spit out the melon seed shell in his mouth. "It's not easy, you wait."

With that, he got up and walked out.

Su Muge looked at Jinglan, as if asking him what he was doing when he left out.

Jinglan seemed to have automatically blocked the two of them, and didn't even give Su Muge a look.

Su Muge yawned repeatedly, and just as she was about to lie down and sleep, the door of the house was pushed open, and Ah Li walked in with a grilled fish.

"Fresh, eat it."

Su Muge looked at the grilled fish in front of her in surprise, which was as long as her arm. "Where did it come from?"

"I caught it."

Su Muge stretched out his hand to take it.

"Thank you, Uncle Ali."

Uncle Ah Li is very useful to Ah Li, and he can't wait to get ten more fish now.

Jinglan was not interested in her grilled fish at all, and went to bed first when she ate the grilled fish.

The night on the sea was silent, and no sound could be heard except the sound of the rolling waves.

Three days like this passed at sea, and the cargo ship was as calm as the waves outside.

On the night of the fourth day, the boatman called all the people on the boat to the deck, saying that they would be able to reach the first island before noon tomorrow, as for what the island was called, Su Muge did not hear clearly, but the general meaning was that those who wanted to get off the boat on that island could prepare in advance, and they would stay on that island for half a day to trade with the merchants on the dock, and then go to the next island.

"Where are we going to disembark?"

Since no cargo ship had ever been to Wuji Island, they had to take a boat to the island by themselves after they got off the ship.

"Disembark on the second island." The first island is so close to the second that it can be reached in just one day.

"Hmm."

Tomorrow when the ship stops at the docks, they will be able to stock up on some food at the docks.

That night, Su Muge suddenly woke up when he was in a daze.

When she sat up from the bed, she found that Ah Li was no longer in the room, and Jinglan stood in front of the bed with her back to her, and she obviously felt that the atmosphere was not right.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Jinglan glanced back at her and said lightly, "I met Haikou." ”

Pirates are pirates.

"They hijacked the ship?" No, if it was a pirate hijacking a ship, it would not be possible for the movement outside to be so small.

"No, the pirates are on board."

Su Muge frowned slightly, and a faint fishy smell vaguely floated from the tip of his nose, which was different from the fishy smell on the sea, but the smell of blood.

"Uncle Ah Li will be fine, right?"

Jinglan shook her head. "It's just a few pirates, and the trouble is whether we will be caught every day when we get to the island."

As he spoke, the door of the house was pushed open, and Ah Li walked in expressionlessly, and Su Muge clearly saw that the sword in his hand was still dripping blood.

"Uncle Ah Li, how is the situation?"

"One step too late, everyone was killed."

This person should be talking about people other than Haikou people.

"They poisoned the water."

And because they still had the water yesterday, they didn't ask for the water sent by the crew, if they took the water, maybe they could find the problem early, after all, Su Muge is still very sensitive to poison.

Su Muge and Jinglan walked out of the house behind Ah Li, and as soon as they went out, they smelled a strong smell of blood, and the ground was covered with blood.

When they were all on the deck, there were a number of corpses lying on it, and one of them was the man she had seen on the deck that night.

"They're all pirates?"

"Well, at first glance, it's a person who hides in the cabin all year round."

"Didn't a single person on the ship survive?"

Ah Li shook his head.

As a result, they would not be able to get to the island, and if the islanders found out that the people on board were dead, there was a high chance that they would be caught.

"We sailed directly to the second island, and before we abandoned the ship and left, there will be people on the island who will see the cargo ships, and these cargo ships will trade with the people on the island all year round, and they will be buried at that time."

Su Muge nodded, although she felt that these people were pitiful, but people could not be resurrected after death.

Jinglan and Ah Li threw the corpses of Haikou onto the deck, and the dead crew members were also pulled to the deck and put them away.

"Uncle, do you know how to sail?"

"Ah Lihui."

Su Muge suddenly felt that Uncle Ah Li was simply omnipotent...... It's no wonder that her uncle has survived so far......

Because she didn't have to go to the first island to stop the boat, it saved a lot of time to go directly to the second island, and the next day, as soon as it was dawn, Jinglan went into the house and told her that she was going to get off the boat.

"Is it coming so soon?"

"Don't get too close to the dock or you'll be discovered."

Su Muge felt that they were a little innocent, after all, they didn't kill people.

"Okay."

Su Muge got everything on the deck.

When she saw the corpses on the deck again, she could only mourn in silence.

Ah Li had already prepared the boat, and they wanted to take advantage of the good weather to get on the boat and go to the island as soon as possible.

After getting on the boat, Jinglan and Ah Li rowed their oars and got farther and farther away from the cargo ship......

Su Muge sat on the small boat, compared to the stability of the big boat, the small boat was much more shaking, and it kept shaking her dizzy stomach for a while.

"You close your eyes and sit down, if you go fast, we'll be there by dawn tomorrow."

Before dawn tomorrow, judging by the speed at which they rowed, Wuji Island was not far from the second island, but why didn't anyone find out about the existence of Wuji Island?

Su Muge closed his eyes, although the shaking was still there, he felt a little more comfortable.

But he didn't know himself, so he leaned between the two and fell asleep in a daze......
