Chapter 17 Bumped, bumped.

As soon as the marquis finished speaking, a boulder grazed the hull of the ship and fell into the water, and a huge wave surged up, and some of them landed on the deck, knocking several soldiers to the ground.

The groans of the wounded soldiers and the roars of the knights of order filled the deck, and before they could react, little Peter and Eva were thrown into the old man's cabin by Uncle William with one hand each.

Also sent into the cabin was the Marquis of Bavaria, who, despite her efforts to get rid of the guards around her, was dragged into the cabin by the hygienists.

The Marquis walked restlessly back and forth in the cabin, scolding the pirates from time to time, and scolding the guards from time to time.

Little Peter felt a pang of fear, and pressed close to the old man as if that would reduce his fear. Just as he was shivering, he felt a warm hand grip on him. When I looked up, Eva was trembling with the same fear, but she held herself firmly and said, "Don't be afraid, I will always protect you." ”

Little Peter smiled self-deprecatingly, held Eva's little hand tightly and nodded, "I'm fine, don't worry." ”

The old man leaned quietly on the sofa, with a copy of "The Evolution of the Continental Heraldry" on his lap and slowly flipped through it. Hearing the conversation between the two, he raised his head and said calmly: "Take advantage of this time to teach you another lesson, and trust your companions." So you have to be confident that your Uncle William will take care of it. ”

Little Peter nodded, and then suddenly remembered something and asked Eva, "Where is your sister?"

Eva froze, and was about to get up and look for her sister. Little Peter hurriedly pulled her and said, "I don't worry about you going by yourself, grandpa, I'll go with Eva." With that, he opened the door and rushed out.

The guard standing outside the door was taken aback, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly rushed into the cabin, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the marquis was safe and sound. But he didn't dare to leave half a step anymore, so he had to close the cabin and guard the marquis by himself.

The ship was no longer as steady as it had been, and it was bumping and undulating on the sea, and Little Peter and Eva had to hold on to each other tightly to prevent them from being suddenly swept away by the living crowd.

He was busy discerning the next direction, so he hurriedly pulled Eva and ran. Suddenly, he looked back and saw Uncle William directing the soldiers on deck to shoot at a pirate ship that was rushing towards the ship.

For a moment, the waves on the sea were undulating, arrows and boulders were flying in the sky, the moans of the soldiers on the deck and the sound of the wind, the sound of boulders falling into the water, and the roar of Uncle William seemed to be woven into a beautiful and magnificent music, but the plot that was staged was so bloody and real.

Little Peter could even faintly hear the painful wails of those who had been hit by the arrows on the pirate ship, and the scolding and wicked laughter of other pirates. It wasn't until Eva slammed a hatch shut shut that he came back to his senses from the intoxicating music.

"Sister, great, I'm worried about you, it's okay. Before little Peter could look around, he saw a little maid fall into Eva's arms and cry.

"Zoya, it's okay, it's okay, I'm here. Don't be afraid, no one can hurt you, I promise you. Eva hugged the little maid tightly and wept silently.

Little Peter stood quietly watching this scene, and suddenly felt a little sour in his nose, and tears flowed out involuntarily. He suddenly envied the sisters, he didn't want to delve into the reason, he only knew that he was very empty and sad now.

So I had to take a closer look at my surroundings to distract myself. The cabin was on the ground floor, with a few tattered beds made of moldy wood, and there was an indescribable smell in the air. Little Peter estimated in his heart that this maid's room could probably accommodate five maids, and there was basically no place to stay in the whole room except for the broken bed.

At this moment, the four little maids were hugging each other tightly on a bed, trembling all over, and looking at the three of them curiously. One of them, the youngest of them, asked curiously, "Zoya, is this your sister?"

Zoya found little Peter at this time, so she quickly let go of her hands and lowered her head embarrassedly, glanced at it quietly, and was suddenly stunned, as if she couldn't believe it, she quickly rubbed her eyes and took a closer look. "Well, you're the one, the one," said the little maid in a hurry.

Little Peter smiled happily, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, yes, I am the little boy you met in Nantes that day, what a coincidence." ”

Zoya burst out laughing and looked beautiful. "Well, it's a coincidence, so who are you and my sister?"

Little Peter didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only look at Eva in embarrassment. Eva smiled at him and explained, "Mr. Peter, you are now my little master. So he explained his relationship with the old man and himself.

After hearing this, Zoya nodded, took two steps back, and seriously bowed to little Peter and said, "Thank you very much for this lord." ”

Little Peter shook his hand again and again, and before he could say anything, he suddenly felt the hull of the ship shake violently, and the speed of the ship suddenly stopped. Little Peter was directly thrown out by the huge impact, and he hurriedly reached out to grab a broken bed, so that he was not completely thrown out.

The maids let out a burst of screams, and fell to the ground. Little Peter stood up dizzily, only to feel the whole world spinning violently.

Before he could react, he heard roaring and shouting from the upper deck, and he suddenly came back to his senses, knowing that it was a giant ship ramming a pirate ship with a ramming angle, but he didn't know what was going on outside.

Eva was relieved to help Zoya up and examine him, then rushed to Little Peter's side and protected him behind her, staring at the door stiff but unusually determined.

Little Peter shook his fist and pushed Eva aside and said, "If you want to protect you, I will protect you, don't mess around." ”

Eva ignored him and just squeezed in front of him, so little Peter had to stretch out his arms and get stuck in his position, and shouted at Eva, "Go, hide behind me, don't run in front of me." ”

Eva paused, biting her lip tightly, her eyes moistening all of a sudden. She turned her back and wiped it, then took a deep breath and calmed down and said, "Okay, then you have to be careful." ”

Little Peter smiled, and just as he slowly relaxed, Eva kicked Little Peter to the ground, and before he could get up, she opened the door and rushed out, locking it firmly from the outside.
