Chapter 1: Li Xin's Story

Li Xin, a young intellectual woman, like them, is a child with a rough fate, who traveled thousands of miles from the far north to reach that desert island, and they lived and grew up together. With youth, two young people who are attracted to each other gradually began to sprout love, ashamed to express that they had to hide their careful disguise and shadow in that environment, when this love finally broke out in the face of the moment of life and death decision, it came too strongly, and too cold too quickly, so that Wang Ling began to doubt, a strong uneasiness has been lingering in his mind, this woman is really just the person he is familiar with?

The woman paused and stood at the bow of the boat, the beautiful sunset shining on the sea with its afterglow......

She lifted her youthful face, gently untied her ponytail, shook her hair on both sides, and said, "When we took the train together that day, did you forget?" ”

"That she, and you today," Wang Ling's face twitched, he glanced at the delicate ankles, on the deck, everyone was barefoot, "I want to tell myself, in fact, you are not her, but I believe in my own eyes, and I believe in my own inference, you are her, aren't you?" ”

"She?" Li Xin smiled: "Who is she?" ”

"Lady Salted Fish," Wang Ling finally stood up, "Why, can you tell me?" Tell me it was a scam from the beginning, right? Who else is involved, are they? He glanced back at the cockpit, where there were Zheng Jiuwu and Lao Pi and the poet.

On the deck, Sha Kun and the three brothers were looking at themselves fiercely, and it was said that the four of them did not enter the dream at all, but just kept guarding the young people's side and were at a loss until they woke up. It seemed that the dream was only specially designed for the five of them, and no one else had a way to unravel or enter it.

"You are very smart," Li Xin got up and said: "But you have made a mistake, you know that some things in this world are better to pretend to be confused, too direct sometimes it will put yourself in a predicament, it is better to follow the free route like this boat, and what is wrong with reaching the end?" I can tell you clearly, I'm not a salted fish lady, do I look that old? ”

"In terms of age, you're not, let me guess, the so-called salted fish lady is just a code name, this code name can be used by anyone, such as your mother," he said this, he deliberately glanced at the woman's face, and the woman did not react. He continued: "How could a woman who had inherited a vast pirate fleet after becoming a widow have allowed her daughter to follow this path as well? Pirates are here to survive, and this woman, Bangvakunya, is a matter of survival for a large group of people, so let's guess if she and her husband will have offspring? If so, I think I'd be the same age as me. ”

Wang Ling continued: "If I were Bang Wakunya, what would I want most after I had absolute maritime rights? I've been to that fishing village, and it's quiet and peaceful everywhere, where people don't love to kill, but on the contrary, peace is the ultimate part of the ocean, and I don't think anyone is exempt. If I were her, I would definitely send my daughter away, and she has finally grown up, as for the future, the inheritance history of a family, right? ”

"It's a wonderful story," Li Xin stood on the railing and looked into the distance: "It's a good story, but it's a pity, you are just a storyteller after all, and only the real protagonist will know how the story itself is told." However, I have to admit your wisdom, yes, Bang Wakunya is my mother, Wang Ling, this matter is very complicated, it is not as simple as you think, you have to believe in fate, fate is the arrangement, you and I can't escape this arrangement. ”

"Tell me, if you want," Wang Ling said, "I think you will tell this story much more wonderful than me, as you said, after all, you are the hero of the story." ”

"Then you shouldn't know this story alone," she turned to look at the cabin and said, "I only know a rough idea, everyone is the protagonist of this story, you are no exception, and they are no exception, so since you are going to tell a story, then sit down and tell it together, listen together, what do you think?" ”

The secret, this is a shocking secret, Wang Ling knows that this secret is finally about to be opened.

The sea at night is silent, the dark night swallows you from all directions, and the "Dead" sails on this ocean like a lost child. On the deck, in a paint can, the old leather was adding firewood to it, the fire was burning so loudly that everyone's faces were flushed, and after dinner, Wang Ling proposed that everyone get together tonight, and the voyage of the ship was handed over to Sha Kun and the three brothers.

The atmosphere tonight was a little strange, everyone felt that there was a little difference, but they couldn't say it, Wang Ling had been silent since he woke up, and everyone seemed to have a lot of words in their hearts, but they didn't know where to start.

"Say, Li Xin," he looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Tell us, where did that story start, from the train station?" ”

"Don't think I'm so mean," her tone was unobtrusive, and she looked around at the few people: "I'm afraid what I know is similar to Lao Zheng, about others, I don't want to mention too much, just myself." First of all, I would like to apologize to everyone, it is true that I have hidden some things from you, such as my true identity, but please believe that there is a reason for this.

Fourth brother, now that I call you that, you probably won't disagree, right? ”

"No," Wang Ling nodded, "Since we are all people in the same boat, at least the moment we sit down, we are all frank with each other." ”

"Very well," she nodded, "my mother is what you call the salted fish old lady Bang Wakunya......

As soon as these words came out, Lao Pi and the poet stumbled one after another, and their mouths could be stuffed into a fist, and even Zheng Jiuwu, who had always been like a plague god, couldn't bear the expression on his face and stared directly at the woman.

"But it's true that I grew up on the mainland, and my father died shortly after my mother gave birth to me, and this fleet has too much power and wealth. A very clichΓ© story, after the death of the leader of the lion pack, the vacant throne will definitely attract the prying eyes of other lions, my mother was not so powerful at that time, she is a woman living in the pirate world of the law of the jungle, she wants me to live, she wants her husband's property not to fall into the hands of outsiders, she can only cut off all concerns, and this concern also includes me.

I was sent to another country, and I was adopted by a scholar, my current father, who was also a good friend of my father. Her mother, known as the Salted Fish Lady, soon unified the fleet, and she had to leave a sense of mystery to the world, and only a deliberate fear could deter a group of greedy and ruthless pirates. In the same way, she understands that piracy will eventually disappear in the increasingly developed seafaring world, no country will tolerate the appearance of a group of pirates on developed shipping routes, this profession will say goodbye to the stage, those who once dominated the seas will also disappear in the long river of history, she needs to transform, she needs to feed those bloodthirsty compatriots who used to be with her under the flag.

In fact, now tourism and transportation are the main businesses of the salted fish lady, as for burning, killing and looting, including the last time Sha Kun played the pirate robbery, you are just a play, and the purpose is this trip. ”

Everyone was surprisingly quiet, and they were all patiently listening to the woman named Li Xin continue to tell the story, and now, no one doubts the authenticity of this story, but the second half of her sentence sounds more attractive, the purpose of this trip?

"Fallen gold coin," she took out the gold coin and played with it in her hand for a while, and then said: "Wealth is the dream that all pirates chase, and the treasure of Wang Zhi back then was indeed attractive enough, but obviously this treasure will not be on this navigation chart, Lao Zheng, I want to ask you first, do you know that the treasure left by Wang Zhi is impossible for people to find?" ”

Everyone turned their eyes to Zheng Jiuwu, and there was just a burning spark of wood bursting in front of his eyes, and after a slight blink, he said: "Not necessarily, but this picture is indeed the most precious one of Wang Zhi's treasures, and it is related to a legend." ”

"What legend?" Wang Ling asked.
