Chapter 69: The Way Back
Whoosh...
Arrows rained down.
Jiang Xuan stood motionless on the mast, not looking at the bow and arrow that was fired.
The Grandmaster.
There is true qi to protect the body, and the true qi to spare the body, like a waterfall covering the body.
These feather arrows will bounce off as soon as they are blown by the true qi that surrounds them, and they can't break the true qi of the body protection at all, which is also the reason why the grandmaster is not afraid of bows and crossbows.
Of course.
Valid for normal crossbow bolts only.
The words of the heavy crossbow are powerful and heavy, and the penetration is too strong, so it can't be hard-connected with the true qi of the protective body.
"Finished shooting?"
After seeing a round of bows and arrows, everyone looked at them in amazement.
Jiang Xuan moved directly like a rabbit, and several dodged and rushed into the group of bows and crossbows.
One palm at a time.
The Flame Palm that matches the Liaoyuan Mind Method is already known for its lethality.
I saw that the heat wave around me was rolling, and the person who was in the palm was as red as a roasted prawn, and his heart was burned to death by the flames.
The one that didn't hit the palm was better.
But as soon as the heat wave brought by this palm wind rushed, it was also swept away several times on the spot, and it was dizzy and planted into the sea.
"Two Grandmasters!"
Look at the little golden man who killed in all directions, and then look at Jiang Xuan on the mast.
The pirates' smiles stiffened on their faces.
it.
A merchant ship was escorted by two grandmasters, and it was loaded with immortal treasures.
Although the pirates have the advantage in numbers, this is not how things are counted.
In the absence of heavy crossbows, ordinary swords and bows and crossbows could not break the defense of the grandmaster at all, not four or five hundred pirates against two grandmasters, but four or five hundred sheep encountered two fierce tigers rushing into the flock.
"Surrender, we surrender."
If there is a personality.
These people will not come to be pirates.
After a brief exchange, when one pirate drops his weapon, like a collapsed domino, the others drop their weapon in frustration.
"That's not going to work!"
Seeing that everyone chose to surrender.
Jiang Xuan squeezed his fists with some unfinished thinking, and his eyes fell on Lin Zhennan.
Lin Zhennan is a Refining Body Flow Grandmaster who has learned the Vajra Divine Skill.
Come to think of it, it must be fun to fight him.
It's a pity.
The Lord of the Lin League is the Lord of the Lin League, he can bend and stretch, and he has not been given a chance to have a seizure from beginning to end, Jiang Xuan deeply regrets it.
"Jiang Gongzi."
Lin Zhennan didn't know that his cooperation made him less of the pain of family ruin, and said respectfully: "These storm pirates kill people and do all kinds of evil, and now we have important things to do, you see..."
"You look at it."
Left and right are just pirates.
Jiang Xuanke didn't mean to take them to the Relic Island, or send them back to Gushui City for trial: "Just do what you want." ”
"Yes."
Lin Zhennan drove all the pirates into the bottom cabin of the pirate ship.
Subsequently.
One punch smashed the mast, and another smashed the rudder.
As for whether these pirates can escape from the sea and return to land without the mast and rudder, or whether they all die on the surface of the sea, it depends on their creation.
Bang!!
Rain.
It's still down.
Three months later...
The journey on the sea is boring.
Especially when you're tired of seeing the scenery and getting tired of the bumps in the sea.
Fortunately.
Jiang Xuan has his own way of relieving boredom, that is, reading books.
Languo has a well-developed business, while developed countries have one thing in common, the entertainment industry is abundant.
Miscellaneous songs, scripts, folk tales...
There are several shelves of various books, and it is not boring to read them.
Sometimes I don't want to read.
You can also go on deck to play chess with the crew, play cards, or listen to the sailors brag.
Each of these people is talented.
The speech is good, the storytelling is also first-class, and some people even swear that they have seen a black mermaid in a certain sea area...
"If I remember correctly, we're almost there, right?"
Night.
Jiang Xuan held the radish stew and chatted with Lin Zhennan.
"It should be just a few days ago."
Looking at the starry sky overhead, Lin Zhennan checked the chart.
Jiang Xuan didn't rush either.
He didn't know anything about navigation, but he knew, "Is there not much material on board?" ”
"It's still going to last."
Lin Zhennan said: "Before I went to sea, I brought cattle and sheep, but now I have only eaten one-third. ”
"Rice and fresh water are also enough for a year, if you want to talk about shortcomings, the only shortcoming is fresh vegetables, after three months at sea, except for some pickles, fresh vegetables have basically rotten."
"But the head chef himself opened a small vegetable patch on the deck, planted some tomatoes and radishes, etc., and saved some food, and it was not a big problem to delay it for a few more months."
Although the level of science and technology in the Hangu realm is not developed.
As people who deal with the sea all year round, Lin Zhennan and these sailors also know the dangers of not eating vegetables for a long time.
"Divide this among everyone."
After listening, Jiang Xuan took out a stack of silver tickets with a face value of one hundred taels: "Here are 10,000 taels, one hundred taels for ordinary sailors, two hundred taels for boatswains, cooks, ship doctors, pilots, third officers, second officers, first mates, five hundred taels each, and tell everyone that after going back, when they arrive at the dock of Gushuicheng, each person will receive double the reward according to this standard, and give everyone a morale boost." ”
As soon as I heard this.
Lin Zhennan didn't go to pick up the silver ticket, but persuaded: "Jiang Gongzi, you should go and send it yourself, so that the sailors will be more grateful to you." ”
Jiang Xuan shook his head: "I don't need their gratitude, nor do I buy people's hearts, this is what they deserve, I just need them to do things well." ”
Hear this.
Lin Zhennan didn't persuade anymore, and summoned the sailors with a silver ticket.
It's just that Jiang Xuan said so.
But Lin Zhennan couldn't really believe it, so on the deck outside, a cry of thanks to Jiang Xuan soon broke out: "Thank you Jiang Gongzi..."
The sailors were delighted.
Although Lan Guo is rich, a hundred taels of silver is not a few.
Several people put together and pooled the money, and they could all buy a small boat and become the captain themselves.
"Tieyun, you said that the fate of people is so impermanent."
"To me, eighteen thousand taels of silver is just a decimal number, but for these ordinary sailors, one or two hundred taels is enough to change their fate."
Looking at the deck, ecstatic sailors.
Jiang Xuan has a deeper understanding of the word fate: "You say, will fate favor me?" ”
Tieyun didn't know.
For him, for this group of sailors, and even for Lin Zhennan and Gu Yu, Jiang Xuan is a well-deserved nobleman.
Not to mention keeping up with him.
Like a speck of dust, falling on the surface of his feet, he took him forward, which is already unimaginable luck for countless people.
"I don't think you know."
Jiang Xuan looked at the dark sea and whispered: "The more successful people are, the more afraid they are of failure, in fact, I am the same, but compared with you, I have more choices." ”
Hometown timidity.
Jiang Xuan couldn't imagine what he would do if there was nothing he wanted on the relict island, and what the next path would be.
Oh.
That's right.
The eldest brother looks mysterious.
Such as... Odd goods can live.
If things don't work out today, Jiang Xuan thought to himself, after going back, he would go to his eldest brother, whether he was close or not was a family, and it would be a way out.
Of course.
I don't have the ability to stand up.
can only take refuge in the eldest brother, this kind of thing is also a shame to say, and Jiang Xuan does not want to make this decision until the last resort.
