Chapter 273: The Scythe Pirates

The sea, no one knows where its source is, as if this endless sea water is falling from the sky. People who live in the Three Realms Sea, as long as they can cultivate, will come into contact with many skills of sailing on the sea after they have achieved a small degree of cultivation, because they know that sooner or later they will go to sea, or even to the open sea.

In fact, the open sea has always been a name for the people of the Huating Empire and some of the great Western empires, which is a kind of definition, a sea area that is far away from them and cannot be completely controlled by them for the huge continent they live in. In the vast sea, no one knows what will happen after crossing that seemingly boundless ocean, maybe it will be a new continent, where there are endless veins of spirit stones that have not yet been mined, and there are heavenly treasures that have accumulated for hundreds or even thousands of years.

But it is more likely that ships that sail to the open sea will eventually be annihilated in the vast open sea, and even the most experienced navigators dare not guarantee that they will find their way in the unfamiliar open seas. What's more, even if the direction is accurate, it is not possible to encounter the New World. The oceans are endless, but the continents are always precious.

The Black Cliff Sea is a sea area three thousand three hundred nautical miles south of the Huating Empire. Three thousand three hundred nautical miles away from the mainland of the Huating Empire, in fact, it is completely far away from the Huating Empire, in other words, the Black Cliff Sea is in the outer sea of the Huating Empire, and even from the inland sea of the Huating Empire - the South China Sea is hundreds of nautical miles away.

In fact, Black Cliff Island is not the largest island in the Black Cliff Sea, in the Black Cliff Sea has now been discovered in the sea area of eight thousand nautical miles, small islands are not counted, there are hundreds of islands that can establish harbors alone, large pirates, the area is comparable to a small kingdom is no less than seven or eight, in fact, if it were not for the fact that Black Cliff Island was the first pirate to be discovered, this sea area would not have been given this name.

Of course, not too many people will care whether this sea area is called Black Cliff or Black Duck, and the people who survive in this sea area only pay attention to two things. One is whether you can grab the sea ships that sail from the seas to the west, and the other is to go further south to see if you can develop more islands that can survive, the entire Black Cliff sea area is actually a sea kingdom now, but there is no king in this kingdom, and no powerful force dares to order other forces, and the chaos here seems to never subside.

Because, another characteristic of the Black Cliff Sea is that most of the people living in this kingdom are pirates.

Zhao Baimian has been wandering the waters of the Black Cliff for seven years, and in seven years, he has quickly grown from a thin child to a murderous teenager, and at the age of eighteen, he is already a boatswain in the Scythe Pirates. Although the Scythe Pirates are not famous in the Black Cliff Sea at all, and can only be regarded as a small pirate group, it is not too easy to become a boatswain here. In order to become this boatswain, Zhao Baimian rescued the old captain in an ambushed battle and almost lost his life.

In fact, he also knew that if he had seized that opportunity to make the previous sailor a long time, he would not have had such trouble, but this guy who killed people without blinking an eye still did not have a yin damage to that extent in his bones, and in the end he still relied on a pair of fists to fight to this point.

Zhao Baiyan is already very satisfied with his current life, his life is picked up, and the exercises are picked up, thinking about the miserable situation when he escaped from Donglai Kingdom, the tragic death of his family and neighbors left a deep impression on him, and he can live to this day, and live like this, he is already very satisfied.

"I said third uncle, can't you move if you're fine, you see that this boatload of people let you take it every day to sleep, and if you go on like this, the brothers on our Little Knife will let you take it badly. As soon as Zhao Baimian stepped onto the warship, he saw the guys sleeping on the deck, and immediately said helplessly.

On the deck at this time there was a muscular man with beautiful bronzed skin sleeping on his back, wearing only a pair of shabby trousers, which must have been many years old, and had long disappeared below the knee, leaving jagged cracks not so much trousers as a long trousers.

The strong man has a good figure, but his messy hair spoils his good image. Every time Zhao Baimian saw him, he couldn't help but think, if Uncle Han could pick up his hair and a big beard well, as long as he didn't look too ugly, he would definitely make many big girls cry and shout and pounce on him with this figure. It's a pity that the people on the entire Little Knife, and even the entire Scythe Pirate Group, know that this Third Uncle Han will never comb his hair, and he won't even tie it up, he just scatters it so casually, and it is impossible to pay attention to the beard that has been curled on his face.

The hair on the face of "Third Uncle Han"—I couldn't tell whether it was a beard or hair—suddenly moved, and then the whole person sat up from the deck with a flutter, brushed the messy hair to both sides with both hands, and grinned after seeing Zhao Bai's face clearly: "Who did I say, it turned out to be a little white face." ”

"Third uncle, I'm Zhao Baimian, not Xiaobaimi. Zhao Bai explained to himself with a calm face.

"Okay, okay, what's called not eating. Han Laosan grinned, and then crawled to the lookout on tiptoe, Zhao Baiyan had been staring at him just now, but he still couldn't see how he got to the lookout, and in the end he could only helplessly shout to the lookout: "Third uncle, this time I have to do a big job, don't miss anything." ”

"It's easy to say, it's better to let me rest for a few more days after the deed is done. A big hand waved back and forth on the lookout, and Han Laosan's impatient voice came down faintly.

As a boatswain, the lookout naturally belongs to Zhao Baimian's subordinates, but in the face of this "lazy" subordinate, Zhao Baimian has never said a word of heavy or cruel words. It's not because Zhao Baiyan is afraid of him, but because Han Laosan is a legend in the entire Scythe Pirate Group. It is said that this lookout has come to the Scythe Pirate Regiment thirteen years ago, when the Black Cliff Sea was still in the stage of being developed, many pirates and large and small family gates have joined the war in the Black Cliff Sea area, the first head of the Scythe Pirate Group was also one of the heroes at that time, the Scythe Pirate Group he founded was also in the limelight thirteen years ago, and this Han Laosan was the lookout on the only warship of the Scythe Pirate Group at that time.

As a result, thirteen years of ups and downs have come over, and now the situation in the entire Black Cliff Sea area has changed again and again, and even the pirates of the Scythe Pirate Group have changed wave after wave, and even the head of the Scythe Pirate Group has changed three, and the current head of the group is already the eldest son of the first head at that time, and he is only three years older than Zhao Baimian. But in these ups and downs, Han Laosan miraculously survived again and again, no matter how hard the battle was, even if even the regiment commander had been killed, he could escape from the battlefield, and as long as it was the ship he was on, he would definitely be brought back from the battlefield.

After several years of development, the Scythe Pirate Regiment has regained possession of three warships, but the largest and sharpest of them, the Scythe, was brought back from the battlefield by Han Laosan in the bitter battle three years ago, when there were only seven people alive on the ship, and the other six people were all rescued from his melee. For such a legendary lookout, on a pirate ship that speaks with strength, of course, he is admired.

It was only in the battle three years ago that the previous leader of the Scythe Pirate Regiment, who was the current leader's own uncle, was unfortunately killed in battle, and then Guo Hongan, who was only nineteen years old at the time, was in charge of the Sickle Pirate Regiment. However, the young regiment commander did not seem to attach so much importance to Han Laosan, and soon Han Laosan was driven down from the sickle by the young regiment commander. Otherwise, how could such an experienced and legendary lookout who always survived be on the pirate ship of the Knife.

Zhao Baimian's understanding of Han Laosan is limited to this, and all the news comes from rumors, when it comes to Han Laosan, it seems that everyone likes to start with "it is said", and it is precisely because of this that after listening to more people, people become less convinced of whether everything he experienced is true or not. In Zhao Baimian's opinion, the reason why Han Laosan is not valued is probably because the young head of the regiment also questioned his experience. Of course, it is not excluded that Han Laosan's lazy style is not liked by young team battles, after all, the current head of the regiment is indeed resolute in doing things, and of course he is unscrupulous.

But anyway, Zhao Bai's face is still very relieved to have Han Laosan on the Little Knife, although he hasn't read many books, he understands the truth that there is no void under the fame, Han Laosan can come through thirteen years of ups and downs, and every time he can save the warship he is on at the same time, this is definitely an unattainable skill, it is said that the old horse knows the way, and with an old sailor like Han Laosan, Zhao Baimian is still more relieved after all.

Just as he was thinking about these things, the old captain of the Little Knife finally came up, and when he saw the old captain's overindulgent look, the little confidence that had just risen on Zhao Bai's face was gone.

"White face, let's sail. The old captain didn't realize Zhao Bai's face at all, and ordered with a squint and a smile.
