The captain took his ticket and looked at it for a moment, and said, "The Qing army on Dinghai Island has blocked a large area of the surrounding sea. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 InfoI'll drop you off on Flying Fish Island in the southeast corner of the Dinghai Islands. Alas, the situation is so chaotic there, what are you going to do? ”

I lied that I was a fisherman on the island and went back to my hometown to visit my family.

The captain looked me back and forth, dispelled my doubts, told me to hurry into the cabin, and then ordered the sailors to lift the anchor.

Just then, from the street leading to the docks, there was a rush of horses' hooves, and a warrior in armor galloped past the eyes on a white horse, his scarlet cloak dancing in the wind.

Despite the onslaught behind him, the warrior galloped forward without looking back.

As he was about to reach the dock, he suddenly held on to the reins and stopped, and the people on board looked at him in amazement, while the captain gave the order to sail.

Suddenly, the warrior pressed his palms on the saddle, and his tall body took advantage of the inertia of the horse to stop and leap forward several feet high, landing firmly on the deck.

His actions immediately caused anger and panic among the crowd.

In particular, he looked like he was being chased by a large crowd.

The captain didn't want to get into trouble, so he frowned and yelled at him, "The ship has already left, who allowed you to come up?" ”

"Get out of the boat!" The samurai threatened, wielding a bloodstained broadsword.

He glanced back at the street, where a group of horsemen was galloping in his direction, followed by a group of archers armed with crossbows.

When the captain saw who the cavalry was, he frowned, ordered the anchor to be lifted and left the port.

I noticed that this warrior had red hair and fluttering, a high nose and deep eyes, unlike the Han Chinese, and even the broad sword in his hand was very special.

Several sailors tried to dislodge him, but at the first sight of their eyes touched each other's sharp eyes, they couldn't help but shrink back.

"We're going north to Bohai Bay now, where are you going?" The captain was really afraid that this man would go crazy on the ship, so he replied in a deep voice.

"Bohai Bay?" The exotic warrior pondered for a moment and said, "It just so happens that I am going to Dinghai City. You can just drop me down halfway! ”

As soon as the words fell, dozens of pairs of eyes on the deck were fixed on me.

I suspected that he was a samurai on the side of the Qing army, and at that moment his right hand quietly touched the hilt of the sword at his waist.

The warrior did not care about the eyes of the people, took out a bag of silver from his bosom and threw it to the captain, saying, "Take me to my destination, and the silver will be yours." ”

The captain took the bag and opened it to see that there were enough silver nails to buy three of these large ships.

He thought for a while, took out a silver ingot and put it in his arms, then threw the rest back, and said lightly: "One piece is enough." However, I am the captain of the ship under the rule of the Yamen of Quanzhou Chenghaidao in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, if you are a Qing army, please get off the ship quickly, I don't want to ruin my own job. ”

The warrior smiled, "So you suspect that I am from the Qing court." In that case, why did you even let me on board? Wouldn't it be better for those people to catch up with me? ”

The captain looked at the cavalry who kept scolding on the harbor in the distance, and said lightly: "Because I don't think they are happy." ”

The warrior laughed and said, "My name is Sain, and I am a knight of the island of Ireland. I don't have an employer, I'm not from the Qing court, and I have nothing to do with the Taiping Army, so you can rest assured. ”

The island of Ireland is on the edge of the continent of Europa in the far west of the Western Regions, and it is more than 108,000 miles away from Quanzhou.

It was a very wild and distant land for the people of Shenzhou, but it was very familiar to a man like the captain who had been trading at sea for many years.

The captain carefully examined the ornament of the gods at the end of the wide hilt, and after a moment nodded, "Okay, I'll take you there." Hehe, there are really two people on this ship who are not afraid of death, where to drill where to fight! ”

Sain stretched out his thick arms, and the nearly five-foot-long big sword spun into the sheath behind his back, and said in surprise: "Is there anyone else on the ship who is going to Dinghai City?" ”

The captain pointed to me behind him and said, "This kid is." ”

Sain's electric eyes shot out, I quickly reined in my true qi, pretended to be a young fisherman who almost didn't know martial arts, nodded and said: "This eldest brother, my name is Zhao Lin, I am a villager of Feiyu Village on the edge of Dinghai City, and I am going back to visit relatives this time." ”

Sain's gaze lingered on me for a moment, then stopped looking at me.

I broke out in a cold sweat behind my back, and I was secretly glad.

But how did he end up here?

The captain said: "Those on the shore are all 'flying wolf rides' raised by the king of Quanzhou Taishouming, why are they chasing you?" You're my crew now, and I need to know what trouble I'm getting into. ”

Sain stretched his waist and said lightly: "Since you asked, I don't need to hide it." I saw this group of crumbs bullying a young girl in the liquor store in the harbor just now, and I couldn't look past it, so I stepped forward and killed two of them. However, these are not bad for the low hands of these riders, and it took me a lot of effort to fight my way out. However, I heard that the two I slaughtered were the commanders of a thousand horsemen. ”

The captain smiled: "These people have the support of King Ming behind them, and they have always been lawless, and I don't know how many things they have done. Hehe, what a bad retribution! At this point, even if you are a Qing army, I will take you there, haha! ”

The ship traveled another part of the water, and came to a misty sea.

The lighthouse on the distant shore emitted an orange glow, shooting weakly through the fog towards the unknown sea. The fog also made the deck wet and lubricated, and no less than three sailors slipped and fell to the ground during the action.

Against the fresh sea breeze blowing in my face, I looked into the depths of the thick fog, and the sea in the distance was white, as if the boundless chaos of the first opening of the heavens and the earth.

The fog was much bigger than expected, and it was still hazy.

This is usually a very dangerous situation, and this is how many ships run aground and sink, although there are experienced captains and sailors on board.

As one of the few excellent captains, the captain's falcon-like eyes seem to be able to see through the layers of fog, and can always judge the hidden danger in front of the channel early.

Although the sailors were always in a hurry to turn the rudder, they were always able to get past the abrupt reef without delay.

"The captain is amazing!" After passing through the treacherous and dangerous sea, I patted the captain on the shoulder in admiration, and thought to myself that if he wanted to attack the island one day, he would have to have a captain who was so skilled in maritime affairs.

The captain looked at me with an almost defiant gaze, and raised an eyebrow: "Captain is not so easy to be. Not to mention the hundreds of reefs in this stretch of water, I know exactly how many whirlpools there are in the entire offshore waters. It doesn't matter if you have a good memory, when the lives of a boatload of people are in your hands, the huge responsibility will make you memorize all the life-and-death information with your heart. ”
