Volume 1 Blue Bird 25 Suffering
"I'm fed up with these days, and I'm overwhelmed by the promise of a million crowns a day when I wake up. When I wanted to give up, the village chief's nurturing grace would remind me that there was still a village to save. I can't stand it. ”
Betty choked up and vented the grievances she had suffered over the years, and went to sea alone at the age of twelve, and it has been six years now. I don't know how many dangers I encountered during this period. She was tired of facing the voices in the village that she didn't understand.
"In the past six years, I have failed to find the navy, deceived the cloud thieves, and hired hunters. The navy doesn't care about non-member countries, the cloud thieves were sunk by the sea tribe before they arrived on Nuodao, and the hunters stopped coming as soon as they heard that it was the sea tribe. ”
"I can only fulfill the conditions of the Sea Clan, I know that it is fake, and even if I do, I will not be able to save the village. But this is my only hope, and I need to use it to suppress the guilt in my heart, until I have seen your strength, and I know that it is time. When she said this, Betty looked excited, and her tone was high, as if she was glad and as if venting.
"Now that the million kroner has been snatched away, and you have arrived on Nuo Island, I have repaid the village chief's nurturing kindness. Kill me now, I don't care about anything else. I'm so tired. She sat down on the ground, tears streaming down her eyes and smiling brightly.
Chen Cheng sat on the chair expressionlessly and quietly listened to Betty's self-description, and was silent for a long time. After looking at the experience, she had a relieved smile on her lips, and she looked like she was about to be killed.
The knife came out of its sheath, the wind howled, and a wisp of cold light slashed towards Betty's neck.
Betty waited quietly for death to come, and the expected pain did not strike. She opened her eyes and looked at Chen Cheng in puzzlement.
"Don't pity me, I'm tired."
"Aren't you tired of this life? I'll give you a new way of life, how about you think I'm the captain? Of course, I'll help drive away the sea tribes here. Retracting the black plum that was lying across Betty's neck, Chen Cheng suddenly said with a smile.
After killing Betty, it would have been difficult for him to find such a good navigator in a short period of time. At the same time, he also likes Betty's resolute character.
"Are you still willing to accept me?" She looked at the smiling man in front of her in disbelief.
"There's only one chance, there's no next time. It's time to call the captain. ”
"Yes, Captain." Betty's nose was sour, and she choked up a little, and suddenly threw herself into Chen Cheng's arms. She finally has someone to rely on.
"Don't pounce, your clothes are covered in mud. Hiss~ Your chest is on me. ”
Outside, the torrential rain gradually subsided.
In the early morning, outside the forest hut, Chen Cheng had already changed into a new set of clothes, and the one from yesterday was completely soaked in mud and water and could not be worn.
"Captain, I've changed my clothes." Betty came out of the wooden house, and her original muddy clothes had been replaced by a set of solid color power suits, combined with short hair, revealing a heroic spirit.
Wandering on the sea all year round did not make her skin rough, just a little darker. The body should be undernourished at an early age, and the body is very thin and barren. However, the facial features are very well-proportioned, and she is a beauty billet.
"The first time we saw you, you weren't like this." He looked Betty up and down, never realizing how much she would look so much better when she cleaned up.
"I did a cover-up at the beginning, otherwise I wouldn't know what moths would come out." After a night, her mood had stabilized. There is also a rare sense of relaxation in the tone.
The two walked to Xiaonuo Village together.
"How many of them are there?" Chen Cheng was still a little concerned about the number of the Sea Clan, after all, he hadn't grown to the point of ignoring the number yet.
There were about one hundred and forty of them, with one leader and three captains. There are 120 adults and 20 sub-adults. Without thinking, Betty broke out the exact number, and it was clear that she had been preparing for a long time.
"There are too many of them, and there is a layer of scales on the surface of the sea clan's body that is much more difficult to deal with than ordinary cloud thieves, and ordinary villagers can't help." He buried his head in thought, he had to think of a solution that could solve most of the sea tribes, otherwise they would rush out and kill the villagers, and there would probably not be one in a hundred.
"What about their water and food sources?" In fact, the easiest way is to take drugs, but how to make them take at the same time is still a little difficult.
"They usually drink seawater, usually eat more meat, and rarely eat other things." After reading the captain's thoughts, Betty gave a not-so-good news.
After thinking about it, I found that if I wanted to do it, I could only make a fuss when I was harvesting grain.
After a short time, the two had already returned to Xiaonuo Village. Yesterday's torrential rains have caused most of the villagers to cut wheat in their wheat fields, ensuring that they can hand in enough food this season and do not have to come up with a small amount of rations to make up for it.
As he passed by the inn, there was the sound of broken tables and chairs and the screams of wealth and nobility, and Chen Cheng looked at it intently, and it was the same people who had dug Betty's treasure last night.
"Said that our family has a promising young master, where did he go?" The strong man in the lead has a cloudy look in his eyes at the moment, and whoever gets drenched in the rain in the middle of the night and is sent out to find someone early in the morning will not be in a good mood. Today's subordinates are also extremely heavy, as a way to vent their dissatisfaction.
It can be said that the enemy is very red when they meet, and Betty's eyes are about to take out the firearm in her arms. There was a sudden bang in his ears, and he saw a flash of coldness, and Chen Cheng drew his knife and rushed out.
When the strong man led by the inside heard the sound and turned his head, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he lost consciousness instantly.
The figure moved rapidly, and almost at the same time, all four figures fell together. Beckoning Betty to find a rope to tie them up. Chen Cheng hurriedly helped Fugui up and checked his injuries.
Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and it was quickly healed by smearing it with blood juice.
"Let's go, let's go to the village chief's house together, they won't wake up today." Seeing that Betty had tied up the four of them, he helped Fugui to go to the village chief's house in the east of the village, and when he left, Betty kicked the strong man in charge a few times.
The village chief's house
The village chief was lying on the bed recuperating from his injuries, and when he heard a movement at the door, he got up to check.
"Why is it so badly injured, it was a glutinous beating?" Seeing that Fugui had a large area of bruises on his body, the village chief thought that it was caused by Nuo Youwei's beating.
Fugui lowered his head and was silent, Chen Cheng looked at him and didn't break it, and helped him into the room.
"I'll talk about this later, put it on him first."
The two of them were busy with their work and cooked Fugui again.
The village chief sat with Chen Cheng on the edge of the bed, and Betty sat on the only chair in the room.
"Village Chief, I'm a hunter. This time I came to Nuodao to help my partner Betty solve the problem that has been bothering her, the Sea Clan. He then told Betty everything about what happened to Betty, and what happened to Betty when they met in Red Maple and what Betty needed to leave after solving the problem. Of course, it also hides Betty's experience of bent death.
"Girl, I'm sorry for you." The village chief clutched Betty's hands with red eyes, he had never known that his daughter had a million-kroner pact with the Sea Clan. After learning that her daughter had to leave her hometown after solving the sea clan, she couldn't help but cry down.
