A sea ship sails between the blue sea and sky, and the crew on board is busy and shuttling. On the deck, there was a person swaggering around with his hands behind his back, occasionally scolding the crew for not working hard, this person was fat and had a pair of mouse eyes, but it was Wang Baao, the owner of Juao Island.

The ship had been sailing for about an hour, and in the middle of the day, the crew standing on the top of the mainmast shouted: "The island is found ahead." Wang Baao immediately ran to the bow of the boat, and sure enough, there were some small black spots on the sea in front of him, where the sky and water met, and they were clearly islands.

"It's all mental, there are a lot of reefs near Chess Island, and your life is not guaranteed if you bump into it, don't be lazy if you don't want to die. Wang Baao stood at the bow of the ship, shouting to the crew of the ship.

The door to the cabin creaked open, and out of the door came the dark-skinned dragon. The dragon looked at Wang Baao, who was shouting at the bow of the boat, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Baao, you just lead the way, where is there so much nonsense." ”

Wang Baao was drunk by the dragon, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, Lord Long, what you said is true, I am just afraid that these subordinates will make a mistake and surprise the king and you." ”

The dragon frowned and said, "It's your responsibility to deviate from the course, if you don't want to feed the fish, hurry up and lead the way." ”

Wang Baao nodded and hurriedly ran to the helm cabin.

When the crew saw that Wang Baao was deflated, they all laughed, and Long looked around and said loudly: "Don't laugh, what Wang Baao said is right, everyone be careful." When the crew saw him say this, they all stopped laughing and got busy with what they were doing.

The dragon turned and went back to the pod. In the cabin, a large table was placed in the center, and around the large table sat five people, in order: Chenguang, Kuang Xinzhu, Amytis, and Refuge, and one young man whom he had never seen.

Ryuya returned to the table and said to a few people: "I have seen the chess island ahead." ”

Amytis said: "This time we can't fail again, take the chess island, and our plan will be realized." ”

Chenguang continued: "Half a year's hard work, success is finally in sight, it is really not easy. As he spoke, he looked at Amytis. The two looked at each other, and they were deeply touched.

It turned out that at this time, half a year had passed since several people discussed in Cuizhu Garden.

That day in the Cuizhu Garden, several people planned to subdue the entire Devil's Islands first, but they fulfilled Xinzhu's wish, and then Xinzhu supported a few people to go to the Southern Continent to find Weixue.

The whole plan was implemented very smoothly, they first attacked Wang Baao on Juao Island, Wang Baao had no backbone at all, and when he saw that several people were coming, his subordinates could not stop him at all, so he immediately knelt on the ground and surrendered.

It's also that these pirates are used to living a casual life, as long as it's none of their business, they don't care at all. The so-called Thousand Islands Association formed by Wang Baao and a group of island owners against Guo Xinzhu was also scattered, but in two months, nearly 100 island owners threw themselves into Guo Xinzhu, only Du Kill the island owner has been dissatisfied, and finally Guo Xinzhu took a few boats of people to seize his Du Kill Island, and the Du Kill Island owner took twenty or thirty loyal subordinates and drove a sea boat to escape from the Devil's Sea.

Just when a few people thought that they would be able to take over the entire Devil's Islands in less than three months, this plan finally ran into a block.

Chess Island is the largest of the northwesternmost islands in the entire Devil's Islands. There are thirty or forty islands in this sea area, and these islands are evenly distributed on this sea area, making this sea area like a huge chessboard, so everyone calls these islands chess islands. And because most of the islands are too small, only the most central one is a large island that can be inhabited, so Qi Island is the name of the largest island.

Xinzhu rarely came to this sea area before. Because Qi Island is the outermost part of the entire Devil's Islands, there is a distance from other islands, and the owner of Qi Island, Jacktu, is not a descendant of Xia Yanren, but came from the mainland of Nanchanaburi to live here a few years ago, so the other island owners have not had much contact with him.

Legend has it that the owner of Jacktu Island was born with a green face and fangs, teeth and claws, infinite strength, very terrifying, and loved to eat people, especially young and beautiful women are his favorite.

After hearing the news of Chess Island, according to Amytis's meaning, Chess Island is far away, and the owner of the island is a mysterious and unpredictable master, so it is better to leave it alone, anyway, Chess Island has no contact with other islands. However, Xinzhu said that if he wanted to return to Xia Yan, Qi Island was a place that he had to pass through, and he had to take this place.

So three months ago, after annexing the other islands of the Devil's Islands with both soft and hard, everyone came to attack Chess Island with more than a dozen sea ships. It's a pity that this time, they hit the nail.

First of all, the whirlpool of the reef on the outskirts of Qi Island caused them to suffer, and three ships were buried at the bottom of the sea, but fortunately, the dragon commanded in time and rescued most of the people who fell into the water, otherwise the people on the other islands would have to return to the sea at that time.

After the first level, the second level is even more difficult, the small islands near the island of Jacktu actually have the secret sentry set up by the lord of Jacktu Island, when their fleet passed through these small islands, and saw the peaks and mountains of the island appear in the line of sight, these dark sentries followed the fleet, and a group of water ghosts quietly scuttled two sea ships from behind.

This time, the people on the other ships could not go to the rescue at all, because there was a bang of cannon fire on the chess island on the other side, and two sea ships sped out. These two sea vessels are not the same as those commonly found in the Devil's Islands. The hull of the ship was swollen and round, and there were four sails hanging on the ship, the largest of which was a white skeleton on a black background, and a huge sharp-toothed beast head was mounted on the bow, and a group of strangely dressed and hideous faces and different colors on the ship kept making strange noises and rushing towards the fleet.

Or the dragon made a quick decision, and immediately commanded the four ships in the fleet to turn around and retreat, and the remaining one was broken. Pity that the sea ship was caught between the two strange ships left and right, and became a prisoner.

This attack not only failed to achieve anything, but instead buried six seagoing ships and hundreds of crew members. What's more serious is that the original islands of the Devil's Islands have just been subdued, and there are many people who are unwilling, and with this fiasco, these people have come out again to fight against the Bamboo King, causing a riot in the entire Devil's Islands.

As a result, everyone had to temporarily suspend the idea of attacking Chess Island and turn their heads to deal with internal affairs.

During this period, Chenguang had another harvest.

Just more than two months after the defeat in the attack on Qi Island, the riots in the Devil's Islands had completely subsided, and Chenguang saw that he could not return to the southern continent as soon as possible, and his heart was full of melancholy, and he was depressed all day. Seeing him like this, Xinzhu took the initiative to take him to the sea to relax. But I didn't want to, but I actually rescued a person at sea.

On that day, the sea boat of Guo Xinzhu and Chenguang sailed to the sea in the northeast of the Devil's Islands, and Guo Xinzhu was teaching Chenguang to fish at the bow of the boat, and the two of them fished from noon to the west mountain at dusk, although the harvest was not much, but it somewhat relieved the depression of Chenguang. The two were about to put down the last rod and return to Paradise Island, as soon as they put it down, the fishing rod in Chenguang's hand sank suddenly, he took it with him, but he didn't mention it, and he was so excited that he shouted: "I hit the tail big!"

Guo Xinzhu also put down his fishing rod and came to help him, but it turned out that it was not a fish that pulled up, but a big man.

This man was about twenty years old, with a square face, wearing a soapy coat, probably soaked in the water for too long, his body was a little swollen, and his face was pale. Chenguang reached out and probed, and found that he was no longer breathing, and turned his head and shook his head at Guan Xinzhu.

Guo Xinzhu looked at this man, probably a little regretful, pursed his lips and did not speak, just turned around and waved his hand, beckoning a few crew members to come over and prepare to bury this sea. But when she turned around again, she suddenly froze in place, and she couldn't help but tremble.

Chenguang was standing up, about to return to the cabin, when he caught a glimpse of Xin Zhu standing next to him, but his body trembled slightly. Her true face has only been seen by Amytis, Chenguang, Refuge and Dragon, and she has always been shown as the Bamboo King, so the mask has always been worn. At this moment, Chenguang couldn't see her expression clearly, so he turned his head sideways and asked suspiciously, "Xinzhu, what's wrong with you?"

Xinzhu didn't seem to hear him speak, she kept shaking, and even her upper and lower teeth began to tremble, but she still raised her trembling right hand slightly and pointed behind Chenguang.

Chenguang looked back along her hand, and saw that the "corpse" that was lying upright on the ground just now had turned over, and was still supporting his body with his arms, trying to stand up, but his movements were very stiff, and his arms were straight without a little bending.

"Zombie!" Chenguang's hair stood up, only to feel a tingle on his scalp, but he finally had some experience, and raised his hand to throw the fishing rod in his hand at the "zombie" who was getting up.

The "corpse" was clumsy with hands and feet, and as soon as he propped up his body, he was hit by Chenguang's fishing rod, and Chenguang's shot was not light, and the fishing rod "snapped" on the back of the "zombie", breaking into two sections, and the "zombie" was also beaten and fell to the ground.

The morning light pulled Xinzhu: "Before this zombie becomes a climate, hurry up and flatten him!"

As soon as Xinzhu was pulled by him, he immediately came to his senses, and the two of them rubbed their bodies and punched and kicked the "zombie" lying on the ground.

The "zombie" didn't react, let the two of them fight randomly, Chenguang suddenly remembered something, and when he turned around and ran back to the cabin, when he came out again, he held a golden stick with a cold light in his hand, and he was about to split his head.

At this moment, the "zombie" who had been lying on the ground and suffered silently turned over, faced the two of them, waved his hands together, and shouted indistinctly: "Pig...... Pig...... Hands, woo...... Woo...... Milk...... Milk...... Throw it also ......"

Thankfully, he said it just in time, and the golden stick stopped three inches above his head.

Guo Xinzhu and Chenguang beckoned a few crew members to help the young man into the cabin, gave him some medicine, and fed him some food, and the man rested for a long time before he came to his senses, and said with a sad face: "Hanging in suspense, not buried in the belly of the fish, and in danger of losing the hands of rough people such as you." Looking at the bruised scars on his body, both of them felt a fever on their faces.

Chenguang asked, "Where are you from, and how are you in the sea?"

The young man replied, "I am Xia Yanren's name, surnamed Niu Minger, and I have taken it as my duty to preach the scriptures all my life. The former heard that pirates were rampant here, so he came here to persuade him. How could I hire a boat owner who was greedy for life and fear of death, and refused to go there, so I had to steal a sea ship and go to danger alone. But unexpectedly, the wind and waves were urgent, the sea boat capsized, and I was thrown into the sea, fortunately, I learned the art of turtle breath since I was a child, so that I could sink without drowning, but I was unexpectedly picked up by you and other rough people, and I was mistaken for a zombie, and I was beaten badly, and I almost died with a whimper, hanging!"

He was so stunned for a while that the onlookers couldn't help but feel dizzy. Seeing that he wanted to say more, Chenguang hurriedly stopped him and said, "Stop, I probably already understand, now you don't have to speak, let me ask, you just nod and shake your head, how about it?"

The young man nodded and said, "I know, but then ......."

Guo Xinzhu hurriedly interjected: "You said, I went out first." With that, he turned and went to the deck.

Chenguang asked, "Your name is Niu Er, isn't it?"

The young man nodded and said, "Yes, I am Xia ......"

Without waiting for him to continue, Chenguang hurriedly said, "You are from Xia Yan, I know, you are here to look for pirates?"

Niu Er nodded, shook his head again, and said, "No, no, I came here to persuade the pirates to change their ways with the principles of sages." As the saying goes, 'people's hearts are good', and pirates are also human beings, so don......'t they have the heart to be good?

"Stop!" said Chenguang almost roaring, "You're here to persuade the pirates to change their ways, I see." ”

Seeing Niu Erzhi nodded, Chenguang then asked: "You want to go to the pirates, but unfortunately there is no shipwright willing to carry you, so you stole a boat and went alone, on the way, the ship sank, and you also fell into the water, and you knew how to breathe, so you didn't drown, right?" ”

Niu Er flashed his eyes with relief and nodded wildly.

Chenguang turned to the crew members who were cowering outside the door and said, "Okay, this guy is here to deal with us, you can throw him back into the sea." ”
