The terrible storm subsided the next morning, and the passengers, who had been terrified in the cabin all night, settled down as the howling of the wind faded to congratulate each other on their resurrection.

Storms, loss of control, grounding, and running aground! The most dangerous series of events at sea, almost all of which passenger ships tried one by one, but it was these successive dangers that miraculously survived the disaster. But then they still have a lot of trouble to deal with.

The passenger ship that suffered heavy damage, not only was the entire bilge flooded, but the bow of the ship was also smashed into a large crater, and many equipment were damaged to varying degrees, among which the most important guide communicator was the entire transmitting antenna, so that they could not contact their home port at all, nor could they send a distress signal, so they could only sit and wait for other ships to happen to pass here, and the other party had better not be a pirate!

The only thing to be thankful for is that when they look north, they can already see the land with the naked eye.

For the sake of the safety of the passengers, the captain decided to move most of the people to land first, leaving only a small number of technicians on board, trying to repair the communication equipment and try to send out a distress signal as soon as possible.

Because nearly two-thirds of the lifeboats were lost in the storm, the captain had to let the passengers go ashore in batches. The wounded, children and the elderly were divided into the first group, with women and supplies in the middle, and finally it was the men's turn. In order to ensure that those wealthy merchants did not dare to "blow up the thorns", the captain approached Weiss and the others, hoping that the owners of their chess pieces could help maintain order, and the three agreed without hesitation.

Under the leadership of the first mate, the only twelve remaining lifeboats carried the first batch of passengers to the shore, and although some of the wealthy businessmen who stayed on the passenger ship complained, no one dared to risk that with Weiss and the owners of the chess pieces.

Weiss on the handle of the knife with one hand patrolled back and forth on the deck, but his eyes never left the "suspect" Lena half an inch, the other party's luggage was only a small backpack, and nothing else, it was hard to imagine that she would go out with such a thing as a girl, which was undoubtedly a big suspicion.

The stranded passenger ship was less than 1,200 meters from land, and the sturdy sailors quickly rowed back in lifeboats. Lena was able to go ashore on board as the second group of evacuees, so West wanted Adele to go ashore with her, and continue to keep an eye on the other party, so as not to give her a chance to escape.

It took a whole morning for more than 600 passengers and most of the daily necessities on board the passenger ship to be transported ashore, and only two technicians and four sailors remained on board to repair the communication equipment.

Once ashore, the captain directed the sailors to cut down trees to set up tents, build stoves and prepare for cooking, everyone was busy, and only a few children were allowed to play in a place where adults could see. However, just when they were in full swing, there was a sudden "rustling" sound in the nearby grass, and a bald head carrying a fishing rod came out, and everyone present was stunned.

Weis, who was holding the hilt of the knife with a guarded face, saw that it was not a ferocious beast that came out, but a shiny "bald Wu Ke", and his face was suddenly full of astonishment.

Weiss clearly remembered that just now the captain pointed to the map and told him that the peninsula they landed on was a "no man's land" infested by fierce beasts and dangerous barbarians because it belonged to the "three regardless" zone, but less than half an hour had passed, and the captain was "slapped in the face"!

"Uh...... Uncle, who are you?"

"I still want to ask who they are!?" The bald uncle has a mouth with a rich dialect.

"That...... It's like this, our ship had an accident, so go ashore here. Uncle, do you live near here, can you tell us where the nearest city is, and how to get there?" asked Weiss politely.

"Oh! It's a little far away to enter the city, and my father has to get old (several) Daoshan, or don't you live in our village first!

"Uh...... Isn't it true that Uncle will ask your village chief for advice?"

"Don't (no) get it! I'm the village head, just follow me!"

Glancing back at the people behind him who were still a little unresponsive, Weiss thought about it, first asked the bald uncle to wait for him for a while, and then he rushed to the captain, and after recovering the situation to him, he asked for 10 sailors to be his attendants, and accompany him to the other party's village to explore the truth first, and then move the camp if appropriate.

Leading ten sailors with big shoulders and round waists, Weiss followed the bald uncle named "Wu Ke" towards their village. The people thought they would walk a long way, but to their surprise, they had just crossed a small slope when they saw a small fishing village at the bottom of the slope.

"That's our village!"

As far as the eye can see, there are hundreds of large and small stilt houses, which are somewhat disorganized. And perhaps most of the people in the village have gone out to fish, and there are not many people to be seen in the narrow and winding streets. When Weiss asked Uncle Wu Ke what the name of their village was, he proudly replied with a name that was impossible to look at.

"Dadio Village!"

Hey, that guy you were named after, what's going on!?

According to Wu Ke, the strong laborers of the village went out to fish in the morning and did not return until the evening, and the people of the village were very hospitable, and let them stay for a while as long as they did not mess with the contents of the houses. The other party didn't seem to be wary of these strangers at all, and the enthusiasm made Weiss a little embarrassed.

"Uncle, isn't that good, let's just build another camp outside the village. ”

I told the old ladies left in the village to tidy up the house. ”

“...... Uncle, we're not dirty, but it's really not good to live in someone's house. ”

"Oh!

Enthusiastically inviting the shipwrecked passengers to the village, Weiss subconsciously thought that the other party had some "attempt". Because of its proximity to unknown waters, pirates haunt the open sea more frequently than in the inland sea, and encountering a fishing village of considerable size in such a remote place can make people suspicious.

But when Weiss walked into the village, this suspicion was immediately dispelled, because the village was very, very unpleasant for pirates. It seems that the stilt houses are arranged in a mess, but each one is clean and tidy, and there are bamboo wind chimes and spider plants hanging under the eaves. Walking on the path paved with cyan gravel, whenever the sea breeze blows, the faint smell of flowers and the pleasant crisp sound will bring people a sense of tranquility.

"If this place can be pirates, it will be a hell of a life!"

After a rough walk around the village, neither Weiss nor the sailors noticed any anomalies of note. There are about 130 households in the village, and it is estimated that there are about 500 people, including men, women and children. The relieved crowd immediately reported the news, and in a short time the captain led the passengers of the Laurel over.

More than 600 people suddenly crowded into the quiet village, and it suddenly became noisy and lively. The villagers who stayed behind did not blame the village chief Wu Ke for bringing back so many people, but warmly entertained these troubled passers-by.

Looking at the village in front of him, the captain, who had been running on the open sea channel for more than 30 years, wondered why he had never discovered that there was a fishing village hidden here. So he inquired a little about the village chief, and finally learned the origin of this village.

When the Aaronic Empire attacked the Republic of Langson, a small group of refugees from the border areas fled inland to the peninsula to escape the war. After climbing over the mountains in the middle of the peninsula, they accidentally discovered this paradise, which not only has a small natural harbor, but also a crescent-shaped island and reef outside the harbor, which acts as a "barrier" to protect them from passing ships, until this passenger ship accidentally runs aground not far from them.

From farmer to fisherman, the villagers live a simple and comfortable life, unconcerned about the ever-changing world outside, and this indifferent seclusion has lasted for 300 years!
