Chapter 12 Tempting the Bottom Line

Under Qi Wanli's operation, it only took Yu Bo and Yun Shi less than ten minutes to completely suppress the pirates.

The pirate leader was forced to order all the pirates on the island to go to sea to face the battle, and then they were all killed by the two patrol Yakshas, and as for the women and slaves on the island, they would take some time to interrogate them one by one after Qi Wanli.

He will only release them if he is sure that they are innocent people who have been taken captive, otherwise it is likely that they are hiding henchmen hidden by the pirate leader.

Under his persecution, the pirate leader wrote a letter, claiming that he had been surrounded and suppressed by the Abyss Temple, and had lost a lot of combat power, and asked the Xi brothers for help.

Yu Bo and Yun Shi obviously didn't understand Qi Wanli's approach very well, obviously the pirates had been wiped out, so why bother? After all, the Xi family brothers had a special identity, was it necessary?

However, Yu Bo never asked too much, and Yun Shi only expressed his opinion superficially.

But Qi Wanli did not explain.

He knew in his heart that his approach was to test the bottom line of the star speaker.

Didn't you leave it to me to deal with? Didn't you say that I could kill if I wanted? Okay, then I will lure the descendants of your relatives to the island to kill them, anyway, they have their own way of death, relying on pirates to collect money, digging the corners of their own temples, and I will clean the door for you, do you have anything to say?

After all, he has only one side to the star speaker, and he still can't judge whether all the promises she gave are valid, and using the Xi family brothers as an introduction to test her attitude is something Qi Wanli feels must do at present.

"How long will it take for your backer to come here?"

Qi Wanli drank tea and asked the one-armed pirate leader who was standing obediently on the side.

The chieftain seemed to be twenty years old overnight, with gray hair and a sluggish spirit, and he was devastated by the destruction of the property he had worked so hard for many years.

But this is also a ruthless man, for the sake of his own life, he did not hesitate to betray his brothers who had followed him for many years. Qi Wanli sneered in his heart.

When the pirate leader heard the question, he replied in a vicissitudes of life: "It will take about three days for the flying pigeons to pass the book, but if they come over, it will be very fast, and generally speaking, it will be ...... in one day."

"That means we'll be able to see the two brothers in five days. ”

Qi Wanli smiled and said, "Very good, when you clean them up, you can leave." ”

The pirate leader had no expression on his face, just nodded sneeringly, and then bowed and left.

The wind on the island was very strong, Qi Wanli lit a cigarette, and he didn't take a few puffs, but was finished by the sea breeze.

"Uncle Yu, you help me do something. He said suddenly.

Yu Bo sat aside, did not drink tea, and said lightly: "I will only help fight pirates." ”

"Ah, it's pirates. ”

Qi Wanli said: "On this sea, there can't be pirates only in the rocky cliff sea, right? In five days, before the Xi brothers come, you go out to sea, find a few pirate ships at will, and destroy them, by the way, remember to leave some alive." ”

Yu Bo looked at him strangely, a little dazed, not knowing whether he should accept this order or not.

Yun Shi asked dissatisfiedly beside him, "Why don't you let me go?"

"You have other tasks. ”

After Qi Wanli said a word to her, he turned to Yu Bo again: "How is it, is there a problem?"

"Lord Star, let me listen to your orders and exterminate the pirates...... Yu Bo pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I know. ”

After that, he didn't stop for a minute, picked up the golden spear standing aside, and immediately rolled up a gust of wind and walked away.

"What about me, what about me?" asked Yun Shi excitedly.

Qi Wanli smiled: "You rest for two days, and then patrol around in this sea area, as long as you find other abyss messengers, no matter who they are, as long as they are not Yubo, they will all be caught here, don't talk to them, don't give them a chance to explain, catch them first." ”

Master Yun asked, "If you run into the two brothers of the Xi family, will it be the same?"

"All the same, catch. Qi Wanli said.

"Okay!"

Master Yun responded without hesitation and left happily.

After everyone left, Qi Wanli drank a cup of tea and let out a long sigh.

He knew that he didn't have the ability to compete head-on with the powerful Star Speaker or even the Abyss Temple, so he could only test the opponent's bottom line through this small means.

Until now, he still feels that the so-called "lifting the curse" is a false proposition.

It was a joke that the star man himself admitted the prophecy, but it was used to calm people's hearts, and of course, the most important thing was to let the people in the Abyss Temple have a way to notice that they were a person who could jump out of their fate and drag themselves into the situation of the Abyss Temple.

In this case, he has no way of determining what role he is playing in this game, whether he is a savior or a chess piece, a player with chips, or a toy at the mercy of others.

Qi Wanli just wanted to take this opportunity to find a way to help him save Bai Qiyu, but he didn't want to let himself fall into a new quagmire.

Therefore, testing the bottom line is a gradual means, he needs to know how far he can go, whether it is the Star Speaker or the Abyss Temple, how many additional things can he tolerate to do, and how much priority is the so-called "lifting the curse" in their hearts?

For this, can they accept a rule-breaker, rampage in the sea that belongs to them?

......

The first two days of the capture of Blackskull Island were calm.

On the third day, Yun Shi plunged headlong into the sea, and in less than half a day, he captured a stunned abyss messenger, who was busy reviewing the captured people on the island, Qi Wanli, who didn't have time to pay attention to this guy, casually sealed his divine power with a charm and threw him into the dungeon.

On this day, Qi Wanli really screened out a woman from the people left on the island, this is the woman of the pirate leader, not a person who was taken captive from outside at all, but a lover who has been with him for more than ten years, and the pirate leader put her in it, just to help her escape, as for whether she has other thoughts, I don't know.

From the mouths of other people on the island, he knew that this woman was specially helping to tame the women who were robbed on the island, she disguised herself as the same person who was robbed, and "kindly" persuaded those women to give up resistance, recognize the facts, and then gain their trust little by little, and then play the kind of woman who was recognized by the pirates and became the leader because of her active dedication, so that those women were willing to become the playthings of the pirates.

Qi Wanli didn't bother to bother with a woman who wasn't even extraordinary, he locked up this woman, and then handed it over to the Abyss Temple to be released.

On the fourth day, Master Yun brought back two more Abyss Emissaries.

Like an eagle catching a chicken, she held the back of a person's neck in one hand, landed lightly in front of Qi Wanli, and threw the unconscious two people to the ground with two thuds.

"Have you seen them before?" Qi Wanli asked with a smile.

"No, I've always been cultivating by myself, and I haven't had much contact with others. Master Yun said: "I caught two today, only the fourth order, it shouldn't be the Xi family brothers, do you want to go again?"

"Yes, tonight is important. ”

Qi Wanli explained: "The letter sent by the pirate leader should have arrived a day or two ago, so people have started running here in the past two days. The sea area of the rock cliff is so remote, and there is no big island, and the general abyss messenger who runs here, there is a high probability that they are spies sent by the Xi brothers, we intercepted their three spies, they did not hear back, they should have noticed that something was wrong, and it is estimated that they will bring people to come overnight tonight. ”

Master Yun thought for a while and said, "I can catch the two of them together, but if I add a few more people, it's hard to say, I heard that they have a lot of masters." ”

"It's okay, you watch. Qi Wanli said: "If you feel that you are not sure, rush back and inform me." ”

"Good!" Master Yun nodded, and walked away against the wind again.

Qi Wanli glanced down at the two people who were lying on the ground, soaking wet, and smiled: "If you are not from the Xi family, I will apologize to you afterwards, now, let me stay in the dungeon." ”

In the evening of the same day, Yubo returned.

His eyes were as calm as the sea, and he said lightly: "I have dealt with a total of four pirate fleets and fourteen pirate ships. ”

"Awesome!"

Qi Wanli gave a thumbs up and asked, "Is there a big noise?"

Yu Bo thought for a while and said: "I didn't think about this, anyway, just sink the boat, as for the living mouths you said, I deliberately left a few, seeing that they are all good in water, they should be able to touch it by themselves." ”

"That's fine, just get the word out. ”

Yu Bo frowned, as if he wanted to ask why he did this, but finally held back.

"Don't you want to ask?" Qi Wanli saw his thoughts and said with a smile.

Yu Bo shook his head: "Say that Lord Star asked me to listen to your orders, and I can just listen to it." ”

"It's boring. ”

Qi Wanli pursed his lips and said, "Since that's the case, you just hold it back and watch it slowly." ”

Yu Bo was not angry, he sighed, and then he stood aside with his spear, like a guard.

Qi Wanli shook his head, looked up at the moon gradually rising in the sky, and suddenly said: "I suddenly thought that when you said that the star wanted to find us, you would naturally find it. The first mission she gave me was to take you to exterminate the pirates, and it's been four days since we took Blackskull Island, and she hasn't shown up, does that mean that this mission hasn't been completed in her mind?"

Yu Bo thought for a while and said, "Not necessarily. It is said that the star master has a bad memory, and he may have forgotten it. ”

“...... What are you talking about?" Qi Wanli felt his neck stiffen a little.

Yu Bo said innocently: "Lord Said Star has a bad memory and often forgets very important things. Still, she always remembered it eventually. ”

"Ahem. ”

Qi Wanli looked at the moon, thinking of the two brothers of the Xi family who might be killed by him next, and suddenly felt a little sad for them.

Perhaps, the star bearer ordered him to suppress the bandits, and on the other hand, he couldn't even remember that the pirate's backer was his own relative junior?
