Chapter 285: The Whereabouts of the Ark
For Long Teng, the failure of this attack on Grass Leaf Island has caused a large number of people to be lost, and after he returns, it is inevitable that he will be punished by the president.
Despite exchanging hostages and returning Cheng Xiaoning, Long Teng's heart was still apprehensive.
As for the side of Grass Leaf Island, Shu Xingbei exchanged for Sha Lian's corpse, and there was no joy on his face. He was indignant.
Not for anything else, just for failing to protect Shalian. As for the cause of Sha Lian's death, Shu Xingbei had already learned from Bao Qianjue that Sha Lian bit his tongue and committed suicide in order not to let himself become a means for others to blackmail Shu Xingbei.
This made Shu Xingbei even more sad. He asked people to find a place surrounded by woods and green grass, and buried Shalian with a solemn expression.
As for Bao Qianjue, he was also taken to the cemetery by Shu Xingbei. Li Xing, Hongniangzi, Zheng Ya, Chen Suli, Xing Guobin and others also came, and they all respectfully gave Sha Lian a gift to his juniors, and kowtowed three times in front of the grave.
Bao Qianjue also walked over, his knees weakened, he knelt down in front of the tombstone, and kowtowed repeatedly, "Mr. Sha, Mr. Sha, why did you just let go." It shouldn't be, it shouldn't. You've made the hearts of those of us juniors heartbroken. ”
"That's enough," Shu Xingbei walked over, "Needless to say, just kowtow." ”
"Ah, okay, okay," Bao Qianjue's acting skills are superb, what he wants is Shu Xingbei's words.
Bao Qianjue followed and kowtowed more than ten times in a row, and when he was about to get up, Shu Xingbei pressed one hand on his shoulder, "You don't need to get up." You are a sacrifice, so kneel like this. ”
As he spoke, without waiting for Bao Qianjue to answer, Shu Xingbei pulled out a dagger and cut his throat. Bao Qianjue was terrified, he clutched the wound on his throat, and wanted to say something, but unfortunately the blood flowed too fast, and he fell down softly after a while.
"Shu Xingbei, don't be too sad. People will inevitably die, I believe in Uncle Sha's spirit in the sky, and I don't want you to be so sad," the red lady walked over and persuaded softly.
Shu Xingbei stood in front of the grave in silence for a long time. Eventually, he left.
Zheng Ya and Chen Suli wanted to follow and comfort him, but the red lady persuaded: "Let him be quiet by himself." He felt guilty and felt indebted to Shalian. ”
Speaking of this, the red lady also looked gloomy. It's really not easy to survive, no one can predict what will happen later, you can only take one step at a time, and if you really have to meet an opponent who can't be matched, death, but it is a relief.
Zheng Ya and Chen Suli are also clearly aware of this.
"If I were captured by the enemy, I would bite my tongue and kill myself," Chen Suli said in a firm tone.
"Me too," Zheng Ya looked serious.
They were women, and they were really going to be taken prisoner by the enemy, and they would only suffer more sins than Sarian.
"Don't say these unlucky words, let's go," the red lady smiled bitterly.
After Shu Xingbei returned to Grass Leaf Island, he locked himself in his room for two consecutive days and never came out. Whether it was Li Xing, the Red Lady and others to persuade them, they all ate the closed door without exception.
"Let him be, he will ease up," the red lady saw more thoroughly.
Shu Xingbei's silence and sadness made the atmosphere on the entire Grass Leaf Island extremely depressing, but fortunately, on the third day, Shu Xingbei walked out of his room and began to arrange tasks.
"Chen Baoguo, I will send you on a business trip, you go to Colorful Island, find the big boss and ask a few technicians to help us repair the engine."
"Yes," Chen Baoguo immediately responded.
"Then take the envelope I wrote and set off immediately," Shu Xingbei took out a letter and handed it to Chen Baoguo.
He had to be cautious. The company's monitoring is too powerful, no matter what actions there are here, the company can be informed at the first time. If you use the communicator to contact Colorful Island, two or three more times, Shu Xingbei can be sure that the company will be able to judge his identity.
Once the communicator is locked, even if the company does not know what he is saying in the communicator, it can be located. If Shu Xingbei is fixed by the company, it is conceivable that from now on, he can only stay on Grass Leaf Island, and he will not be able to go anywhere.
Shu Xingbei thought that before he went to Nanshan to explore the secrets, he would settle down on Grass Leaf Island. Once Leaves of Grass Island is settled, he has no worries.
With the strength of Sarudai and Saruji, and the fact that the Sea Eagles are a well-trained team, Shu Xingbei believes that even if he leaves Grass Leaf Island, Grass Leaf Island will not be easily attacked by the company.
Unless the company attacks with artillery.
If the company really wants to use artillery, even if Shu Xingbei stays on Grass Leaf Island, it will be useless. Although his body can withstand the shot of bullets, in the face of powerful artillery attacks, Shu Xingbei believes that he will be similar to Hong Xiaotao at the beginning, and he will be seriously injured if he does not die.
In a short period of time, Shu Xingbei still has no intention of leaving Leaves of Grass Island. He wants to determine what's next for the company. Therefore, his arrangement is to also send some shrewd and capable Sea Hawk team members to the major forces to be installed and become his eyeliner.
It is not easy for the Seahawks to be installed in other forces. First, those forces controlled the people from the outside sea extremely strictly, and Shu Xingbei clearly remembered the conditions that Mu Feng said at the beginning.
First, the number of people cannot exceed five; the second is to pay a certain amount of gold coins or rare items; The third is to pass the loyalty assessment. Of the three, the last one is the hardest. Because Shu Xingbei doesn't know what the so-called loyalty assessment is all about.
Therefore, Shu Xingbei has not been transferred from the Seahawks for a long time.
In addition to the Seahawks, there is another force that Shu Xingbei can use. That's Ye Zheng.
If you really want to send someone out to do the undercover mission, it is better to use Ye Zheng and them than to let the Sea Eagles complete it.
Just when Shu Xingbei thought about it again, another two days passed. Chen Baoguo came back with more than a dozen people. Guo Tianyi didn't disappoint Shu Xingbei, and really sent him a technician to repair the generator.
The damage to the generator was not severe, and that night, Leaves of Grass was back in the light. Immediately, the whole island was filled with jubilation.
Shu Xingbei asked Chen Baoguo to pay the technicians, but the more than ten people refused to accept it. In the end, Shu Xingbei personally stepped forward and forced each of them fifty gold coins.
Those technicians didn't expect Shu Xingbei to be so generous, and they thanked them one by one.
"You're welcome, if there's a need in the future, please don't bother," Shu Xingbei smiled.
"No problem. As long as the chief instructor has orders, we will rush over as soon as possible," said the technical staff led by Chen Baoguo, who left his communication number, and then left.
For a time, there was power supply and supplies on the island, Shu Xingbei and Li Xing reorganized the Sea Hawks team and divided it into two, half of them were stationed on the island, and the other half were sent to the affiliated islands to guard according to the squadron management model. Then the order on the island was rectified, the penal system was clarified, and the tax decree was promulgated.
The tax laws formulated by Shu Xingbei are not strict, and compared with the previous tax system of Zhao Shangzhi, even two-thirds of Zhao Shangzhi's cannot be reached. Therefore, as soon as the tax decree was issued, the original inhabitants of the island cheered for it, and from this day on, the island of grass leaves and the affiliated islands really became united in the hearts of the people, and the Seahawks and Shuxingbei took root in the hearts of the original inhabitants.
And so the days went by.
As Leaves of Grass Island became more and more stable and wealthy, it was not only the Colorful Island of Guo Tianyi that made transactions with Leaves of Grass Island, but also the Rain Island of Lingfeng Hall and the Deer Island of White Tiger Hall all chose to trade with Leaves of Grass Island, and even Qianfan Island, which had a conflict with Shuxingbei at the beginning, also participated.
The big man Yuan also came to Grass Leaf Island in person, visited Shu Xingbei, Li Xing and others, and apologized for the past.
"I have long forgotten about those little things in the past," Shu Xingbei waved his hand and ordered to go down and set up a banquet for Yuan Dazi and entertain Yuan Dazi and his party.
"Chief Instructor Shu is really a dragon and phoenix among people, and his belly is extraordinary, it's not something that I, Yuan, can help," Yuan couldn't help but regret that he chose to go against Shu Xingbei in the first place.
"Lord Yuan has won the prize. I believe that Lord Yuan's trip is not as simple as coming to catch up with me, right? Shu Xingbei asked with a smile.
Judging from Ling Fengtang's initial overtures, Shu Xingbei determined that Yuan Da Man's visit may not be without the shadow of the leader of the Special Attack Society.
Chief Instructor Shu's eyes were like a torch, and Yuan had to admire. To tell you the truth, Leaves of Grass traded with the surrounding islands, and speaking of which, I was really short-sighted and gave up a great trading opportunity. This time, I instead invited Chief Instructor Shu and Captain Li to trade with us. After all, our Qianfan Island is the force of the Special Attack Society, and if we trade directly, the two of us will have to spend a lot less money," Yuan said with a humble smile.
Of course, Shu Xingbei would not take Yuan's big man's smile seriously. If he really believed that Yuan was honest, it would be a hell of a thing.
It is conceivable that Yuan Da took the initiative to mention the transaction, and he was definitely instructed by the upper echelons of the Special Attack Society.
"There is a Thousand Sails Island and our side to trade, of course we can't ask for it. I think we can also make a catalogue of supply and demand items, and the two sides can negotiate the price and delivery of goods according to the catalogue," Shu Xingbei said.
"That's great," said Yuan, a big man, with a look of great joy. In fact, he didn't have much of a smile on his face.
"I wish us a happy cooperation?" Shu Xingbei raised his wine glass, signaled to Li Xing again, and the two stood up together and toasted to Yuan Dazi.
Yuan is also bold when he drinks. After the three of them drank three cups in a row, Shu Xingbei asked tentatively: "Island Master Yuan, I have something that I have always kept in my heart, and I don't know who I can find to answer my questions." I met Island Master Yuan today, and I really want to ask. ”
"Chief Instructor Shu said that as long as I Yuan know, I will tell you everything," Yuan replied.
