Chapter 157: Encountering pirates
"Those guys are all deadly masters, let's hide quickly."
After saying that, the boat head went away without looking back.
He found a place to hide, because he knew that fighting hard with some desperate guys was simply asking for his own hardship.
"It's not good."
Zuo Xingyan took out the dagger he was wearing and caught Jing Beihan's hand.
"You protect yourself, I'll protect the supplies."
Jing Beihan took her hand and said, "I'll go with you, this little injury won't get in the way." ”
The two returned to the cabin, called Jing Jingnian and the others up, and explained the situation.
Several people took up arms one after another, preparing to go out to meet the enemy.
The pirates didn't give them much time to prepare, and in an instant they were already close to the fleet.
The leader was the person who teased Zuo Xingyan that day.
He smiled evilly, revealing Bai Sensen's teeth, and was a little surprised to see Zuo Xingyan and the others.
"Hey, it's you again, it seems that we are destined by God, today, I will take you back to be Mrs. Zhai."
After speaking, he drew his knife forward, wanting to pull Zuo Xingyan to his side.
Jing Beihan took out his sword to block: "If you want to take it away, he first asked me if the sword in my hand would agree." ”
The two fought like this, and the man's men also flocked to this side, and Jing Jingnian and Jing Yannian also joined the battle, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
Zuo Xingyan was not idle, she immediately used her ability, and countless wind blades blew towards the enemy, catching the pirates off guard.
At first, the pirates thought it was the sea breeze, but those wind blades were like long eyes, and they only hit them, without interfering with Jing Beihan and the others.
It didn't take long for the pirates to lose the upper hand.
"Withdraw!"
Seeing that they were not the opponents of Zuo Xingyan and the others, the pirate leader hurriedly jumped into the sea and disappeared.
The main ship where Zuo Xingyan and the others were located was not robbed because of its excellent defense, but the other ships were not so lucky.
Although there were guards from the Gusu Ming faction, they were outnumbered, and about half of the supplies were still looted.
Zuo Xingyan was distressed, but he was helpless.
Now, human life is more important, and I hurriedly checked and treated my injuries everywhere.
After the battle at sea, everyone was exhausted, and they could not rush to the road.
After a night's rest, on the second day, Jing Beihan sent someone to count the quantity of supplies.
"Brother Han, I just went to each ship to count the supplies, and this time the pirates are menacing, and we have lost a third of the supplies in total." Jing Yannian reported.
Jing Beihan's brows furrowed, these pirates are really rampant, sooner or later, he will pull out this tumor.
"Okay, don't worry too much, after all, there are still two-thirds of the supplies, which is enough for Quanzhou to survive this difficulty."
Zuo Xingyan said with relief on the side.
One day they will be able to reach Quanzhou, and presumably Sun Feng will not blame them.
……
Of course, Sun Feng wouldn't blame them, because now he himself was already anxious.
Since that day, Brother Yu knew that the treasury in Quanzhou was empty, so he led his subordinates to spread the news everywhere, so that everyone in Quanzhou was in danger and worried about their livelihood tomorrow.
When the sin slave was receiving the meal, there was a fierce snatching scene, which was difficult to control for a while.
The whips used by the servants had no effect, and everyone felt that it was better to be wounded than to starve.
The Jing family also heard the news, and the aunt of the Jing family was the first to panic.
"There is no food in Quanzhou, we don't all have to starve to death on this island, it's all your fault, our whole family was exiled to this ghost place, now it's okay, we are all going to starve to death here."
The aunt of the Jing family cried wolf at Jing Zhong and the others, tears and snot flowed all over her face, and she didn't feel indecent at all.
Jing Zhong was already worried about the lack of food, but now that the aunt of the Jing family was crying in front of him, he was even more impatient.
For the first time, he said sarcastically: "When you enjoy the blessings of my Wuwei Hou Mansion, why don't you say that I am burdening you, and now you cry when you encounter something, no one is dead yet, what are you crying about." ”
was yelled at by Jing Zhong, and the aunt of the Jing family stopped crying, but kept sobbing.
"Master, what are we going to do now?" Shen asked worriedly on the side.
"Beihan, they have already gone to Yue to solve the problem of supplies, and I think it won't be long before they will come back."
Jing Zhong could only comfort his wife like this, although he didn't know the exact time of Jing Beihan's return.
At this time, a large number of criminal slaves gathered outside the barracks, holding farm tools as weapons in their hands, and shouting in their mouths: "We want to eat!" We're going to eat! ”
Sun Feng hid in the barracks at this time, pacing back and forth in the camp tent, his brows furrowed tightly, thinking of a solution.
"General, I will lead the troops to suppress it, and bring back these criminal slaves who don't know the height of the sky and the earth to be tortured and tortured."
The deputy general stood in front of Sun Feng and assured.
"Sending troops to suppress it is not a long-term solution, you can go to the dock and keep an eye on me now, to see if there is a fleet coming."
Sun Feng now pins all his hopes on the materials brought back by Jing Beihan and others.
The deputy general had no choice but to listen to Sun Feng and returned to the dock.
The slaves gathered more and more at the gate of the barracks, and even if the officers and soldiers wanted to drive them away, they could not remove everyone for a while.
Brother Yu and his men hid in the crowd to fan the flames.
They shouted, "Even if we are slaves to sin, we have the right to live." ”
"The general is unkind and embezzles food and salary."
"Help us, we just want a bite to eat."
The shouting outside the barracks was endless, but Sun Feng looked at the empty warehouse and couldn't do anything.
The sin slaves in front of the barracks were so angry that they were about to rush into the barracks with their farm tools.
The officers and soldiers couldn't hold it back, and a group of people pushed and shoved at the gate of the barracks.
"Brothers, rush in for me, kill Sun Feng, and there will be food."
Brother Yu shouted in the crowd.
The slaves also seemed to have no consciousness and thinking of their own, and they were crowded to rush into the barracks, as if they could have a chance to survive if they entered.
Just when a group of people were making a fuss, news suddenly came from the dock that Jing Beihan was back!
Sun Feng came to the gate of the barracks and tried to stop the rioting slaves, he shouted loudly: "The food has arrived, now everyone follow me to the dock." ”
Hearing that there was food, the riots in the crowd gradually stopped.
Sun Feng walked in front of everyone, and a group of people rushed to the dock to greet Jing Beihan and the supplies they had brought back.
On the dock, Jing Beihan and Zuo Xingyan were already organizing people to unload the goods.
"You're finally back, how's it going, how much supplies have you brought back?"
Sun Feng's tongue was whirling, God knows how he had come over these days.
Zuo Xingyan pointed to the ship behind him.
"Isn't this obvious, General?"
The girl had a bright smile on her face, and the ship behind her was full of goods, which was the hope of Quanzhou's survival.
Sun Feng looked at the ships full of goods and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
