Chapter VIII Turmoil and Turmoil
Although he had the ability of "insight", it took Fang Senyan two or three hours to collect this series of information, and at this time he still had about two pounds left on him, so he naturally thought of going to the tavern to have two drinks, not only to inquire about the news, but also because the drunkard milestone had already reached 11/100. Now that Fang Senyan had found a job, he didn't mind spending all the remaining money on rum.
An hour later, Fang Senyan's drunkard milestone had reached 22/100, and his money had naturally dropped to the single digit in pennies. At this moment, Fang Senyan heard a commotion outside, and then through the mottled outer wall of the bar, he could see that there was some slight chaos on the street, and the guards who had been patrolling around the port also hurried in one direction.
As mentioned earlier, the port of Tutuga is a neutral port, which means that the guards here are not owned by a large power, but are maintained by the private forces that rule the island. Perhaps the guards were quite strong when the pirate Bernard Falkkin's hands of his hands built this neutral port, but now it seems that the defense of the port is like a girl's firm breasts after a breastfeeding baptism.
As soon as Fang Senyan walked out of the door of the bar, he didn't even need to look up to see thick black smoke coming out of the castle at the highest point of Tutuga Port! And the whole port became a little chaotic, like a bone thrown into an ant's nest------ you know, this is a place that has been rich for seventy years, and more than nine out of ten of the inhabitants are pirates!
They were not law-abiding tourists, and as soon as the port of Tutuga showed even the slightest weakness, the pirates would leave very gentlemanly, and then return one dark and windy night to plunder the last penny into their purse like a ferocious hungry wolf!
"Hmm......" At this moment, I don't know how many people are like Fang Senyan, stroking their chins with their hands, looking at the smoke of the castle, and there are many thoughts in their minds that may not be yellow, but must be very violent.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the direction of the castle, and you could see that the earthy yellow smoke and dust rose twenty or thirty meters high, and even formed the shape of a mushroom cloud. Several pirates standing next to Fang Senyan opened their mouths wide, and a rude bald head dressed in gray-white linen exclaimed:
"Good guys, these bitches have buried a hundred barrels of gunpowder!"
Although this guy said "raised by a son of a bitch" in his mouth, looking at the appearance of this guy's eyebrows flying, it is no different from the head of X regiment in the anti-Japanese war drama who patted the shoulder of the commander of X company and scolded "You did a good job". Fang Senyan knew as soon as he heard that this guy should be a professional gunpowder player among pirates, but his mind immediately turned to the black smoke of the castle and the earth-shattering explosion just now.
Perhaps the black smoke of the castle may have been ignited by the characters in the plot, but to create such a large explosion scene is very unrealistic according to the level of technological development in the Pirates of the Caribbean. Like the gunner just said, at least a hundred barrels of gunpowder are needed! The barrels of this era were usually made of oak, and the gunpowder contained more than 100 kilograms, so for those who did not have bulldozers or excavators, burying 100 barrels of gunpowder could only be described as a large-scale project comparable to the construction of the Great Wall, unless all the guards in Tutuga Port were blind, it was possible to turn a blind eye to such a project.
Therefore, it could only be the contractor's doing. Only the contractor can get this kind of high-power and small-volume explosives, and only the contractor dares to ignore the seventy years of peace in the port of Tutuga, and blatantly launch this kind of violence in order to satisfy his own **. And Fang Senyan had a flash of inspiration in his mind at this time, as if a certain problem that he had been entangled with before had been found to open the key, but for a while he forgot which question it was.
At this moment there was a sudden rush and noise at the end of the harbor, and then it could be seen that several figures had fled in a hurry, as anxious as a mouse in front of a cat's paw, and a goat before a wolf's kiss, which must have been the contractors who had committed the crime, and it was the guards of the port of Tutuga who raised their weapons behind them.
These guards should have also received death orders, and they would not give up on these contractors. Just when these figures ran to nearly 100 meters away from Fang Senyan's location, suddenly there was a long hissing of "sigh" from the alley next to it, the sound sounded a little like a horse neighing at first, but I don't know why, everyone who heard this sound invariably shuddered, as if someone had poured cold water on the head, and the blood was about to be soaked in that cold.
Then there was a loud bang in the nearby wooden house, and the rubble and broken wooden planks flew in all directions like explosions, and a giant horse flew out of the air. The muscles of the giant horse were swollen and swollen, as if even the skin was about to be broken, his eyes were covered by a black blindfold, and his mane and tail were flying and swinging, revealing a trace of blue cold, like smoke, and there was a fiery red saddle on the back of the giant horse, as bright as a matador's cloak.
The rider on horseback was about forty years old, sitting on horseback with a steady steady, without holding the reins at all, with a Spanish aristocratic mustache, but with a clean chin shaved, a high black bowler hat, a pair of sharp and cold eyes already looking, and then drew a short-barreled musket!
The firearms at this time were quite primitive arquebuses, which took a long time to reload after a single shot. But as soon as the rider drew his gun, the fire rope on it automatically burned, and the muzzle of the black hole pointed straight at it, making a loud "boom". In the smoke of the muzzle, Fang Senyan felt that the cold hairs on his back were standing up one by one, his eyes widened suddenly, and he saw that the contractor who was running at the front was trying his best to dodge, but after the gunshot, his entire upper body exploded in a blur of flesh and blood!
The scene was like a big watermelon popping and being squeezed by an irresistible force in an instant, the flesh and bones were brutally blown into small pieces, and the pedestrians/streets/shops within a radius of seven or eight meters were smeared with a layer of dark red and terrible fish!
What's even more strange is that the lower half of the contractor's body is intact, and after the upper body is shattered, the two legs even ran several steps before losing their balance, and fell to the street with a click, and the blood had time to flow out of the section, slowly accumulating into a dark red pool.
Seeing such a horrific scene, the feelings of the contractors can be imagined, they looked at each other, screamed wildly, and fled separately. When two of them had reached the edge of the sea, they pitched out a dinghy and rowed into the sea like lost dogs, apparently seeing the weakness of the guard and the knight in the water. Although the giant horse was running fast, the dinghy was already fifty or sixty meters away from the shore when it reached it.
Just when almost everyone thought that the knight was about to be helpless, he pulled the reins! The giant horse also stood up, neighing violently, and from its mouth, nose and ears spewed out an ice-blue cold air, in the afternoon sun, the cold air shimmered and shimmered, making people look at it with an illusion of coldness.
Then the giant horse leaped with all his might, and fell straight down to the sea! Its hooves are at least the size of a basin, when it comes into contact with the surface of the water, the surface of the sea water is immediately condensed into a layer of light blue ice, although you can clearly see the surging sea water below, but the giant horse has already raised its hooves and run, around the hooves below it there is an extra layer of white mist, which can freeze the sea two or three meters away in advance, and after the giant horse gallops, the ice behind it will quickly dissolve, from a distance, it looks like there is an extra white ice road in the sea, Straight to the escaped dinghy not far away.
After just more than ten seconds, the two stunned contractors on the dinghy were chased up, and it seemed that they were still planning to resist, but the knight on the horse pulled out the Western stabbing sword in his hand with a "bang", raised it high with lightning speed, and then stabbed out diagonally around an arc! The movements of the two contractors stopped for a moment, and then the blood flashed, and the two of them were picked up like two straws, and they were strung alive on the Western stabbing sword!
"Ah!!!h The knight on the horse let out a cathartic roar that echoed through the harbor. "Accept the wrath of the Fokker family! Dregs and maggots! ”
"Is this Little Falk?" Fang Senyan heard a pirate next to him asking his companion. His companion, apparently quite knowledgeable, lowered his voice and said:
"That's right, he is the third generation heir of the Fokker family, that horse is called Momore, it is said that the soul of the devil is parasitic in its body, it was once Bernard Faulk's mount, and only the heir of the Fokker family can control it."
