Chapter 146: Being Underestimated Again (Third Watch)
Xue Zha and the others looked at this city lord's mansion, and the huge plaque was engraved with gilded characters, all of which showed the identity of the owner of this mansion.
"This city lord is quite a big pomp, how would Brother Huo feel if he saw it. ”
Xue Zha's words did not have a mocking tone, but they were very harsh when they stopped in Le Xiang's ears.
As soon as he thought of Horn's extravagant life, he couldn't help but sigh.
"It's the same person, why is the gap so big?"
Xue Zha didn't know Le Xiang's thoughts, and if he knew, he might not be able to help but slander in his heart.
"Brother Huo, you are also a senior, how can you be ridiculed by the locals, you are too a failure, and you are too powerful. ”
Xue Zha and Le Shen walked towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and before they could get closer, they were stopped by the two subordinates guarding the door.
"Eh, what the hell, is this the place where you can come, don't you open your eyes and see where this is?
One of the subordinates seemed to be in a hurry to behave, and spoke before the others, and his words were full of disdain.
Xue Zha and Le Shen glanced at each other, and both saw a trace of disgust in each other's eyes, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and shook their heads gently.
is like this again, just because the two of them are not dressed brightly enough, and then they are judged by their appearance.
However, Xue Zha still reacted quickly, and they can't be blamed for this, let alone the present, even in the previous life, many salespeople are like this, judging people by their appearance.
Xue Zha retracted the momentum on his body, scratched his head, and then reached out and threw the shrimp line of the big lobster just now on the deck.
"Well, I really don't have any ill will, and besides, I really came out of the Holy Island, and I have a mission on my part, and I have to do it. ”
Xue Zha spread his hands to show that he was harmless, and at the same time took out his body, indicating that he was not carrying a weapon.
Tang Long'er's eyes were still full of vigilance, but her face softened a little.
She waved her hand at the subordinates who had already surrounded Xue Zha, and at the same time straightened her back, looked at Xue Zha and said.
"What does your mission have to do with us?"
Xue Zha saw that Tang Long'er was still so cautious at this time, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
"Don't mention it, the Holy Courtyard has sent me a lot of tasks, and I don't have a clue until now, so I thought I would ask some people who are familiar with the sea environment, who asked you to tie me to the ship while I was sleeping?"
Tang Long'er's face was slightly red when he heard Xue Zha's words.
As Xue Zha said, it was she who tied Xue Zha to the boat, and he provoked Xue Zha first, and the people did not kill people to retaliate on a large scale, which was already regarded as merciful to his subordinates.
"You are not familiar with the sea? Who is not a good navigator from the Holy Island? Who are you?"
The atmosphere that had just eased up instantly became tense again, Tang Long'er clenched the weapon in his hand, and the battle would be triggered at any time.
Xue Zhe really couldn't stand the woman in front of him, he had already said it so clearly, why didn't he believe it.
In fact, I can't complain about Xue Zha, people who beg for a living on the sea, especially those who are pirates, live a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife.
There is no friendship and affection between pirates, and whoever has a hard fist is the boss with more people, so the word trust does not exist at all in pirates.
It is also a new experience for people who live inland all year round and have never seen much of the sea, and it is also a feeling that they have never experienced at all.
So it's not that Xue Zha doesn't understand, it's that he doesn't know the situation at all, which is completely different from the fights between those gang families on land.
Tang Long'er saw that Xue Zha didn't speak for a long time, and the weapon in his hand became tighter and tighter, for fear that the next moment, Xue Zha took out a dagger and stabbed her.
But with Xue Zha's long sigh, Tang Long'er showed doubts on his face.
"Alas...... I really don't know how you became the boss of the pirate group, you don't have a little observation and judgment, it seems that I think highly of you, since you don't want to believe me, give me a ship and some supplies, I'll leave now. ”
Xue Zha shook his head, a look of disappointment appeared in his eyes, and he glanced at Tang Long'er one last time, then stopped looking at it.
Somehow, Tang Long'er was glanced at by Xue Zha, and a feeling of guilt suddenly arose in his heart, and this feeling became stronger and stronger, and it has been lingering in his heart.
Xue Zha saw that Tang Long'er didn't react, and finally decided not to delay any longer, turned around and walked towards the bottom of the boat.
When the pirates saw Xue Zha, they did not stop it in the slightest, and directly formed a passage two people wide.
Tang Long'er saw that Xue Zha didn't look back, and was about to disappear from her sight, she subconsciously shouted.
"Wait a minute!"
Xue Zha's footsteps stopped, but he didn't turn around, but there was already a smile on his face.
"What for?"
Xue Zha turned his head sideways, glanced at Tang Long'er and asked.
"What's your name?"
Tang Long'er frowned and asked.
Xue Zha turned around slowly, and this time there was a puzzled expression on his face.
"You didn't stop me just to ask my name, did you? Sorry, I didn't make an appointment. ”
There was a hint of anger on Xue Zha's face, and he turned around again to leave.
Tang Long'er was really a little anxious now, although she didn't know who Xue Zha was at all, and she didn't know what Xue Zh's purpose was, but she couldn't help but be moved when she remembered what Xue Zha said just now.
It is true that Tang Long'er is the leader of a pirate group, but she is also a woman after all, and due to the limitations of the times, the status of women is not very high, and women can't show their heads outside, let alone mix with a group of men every day.
But Tang Long'er is not a person who is willing to be ordinary, she also wants to do something big, and she also wants those stinky men who look down on her to see how good she is, even better than many men.
Therefore, Xue Zha's proposal just now was very tempting for her.
"Stop! I want to ask you, what will I have to pay if you help me become the best pirate group in this sea?"
Xue Zhe heard Tang Long'er's words, his footsteps stopped again, and this time, his eyes narrowed slightly, knowing that his goal had been achieved.
But before Xue Zha could turn around and speak, a few people who looked like heads stood up beside Tang Long'er.
"Boss, we don't even know who he is, so we can't take risks!"
"Yes, we will definitely suffer if we do it, we can't beat him, think twice, boss!"
Tang Long'er saw the two left and right hands coming to his side, and a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"I'm the boss of this ship, I have the final say!"
Tang Long'er's tone became tough, and his attitude was very resolute.
As the saying goes, wealth is in danger, although Tang Long'er doesn't know Xue Zha's purpose and personality, but she is willing to gamble, not to mention anything else, it's a big deal to lose and start all over again, but if you win, you will get a lot of rewards.
Whoever says that a woman can't do a big thing, she just wants to do a big thing, to silence the men who used to sneer at him and look at him with strange eyes, or bow their heads to him.
If Xue Zha could know Tang Long'er's thoughts, he probably wouldn't have helped this only strong woman on the sea.
Xue Zha turned around with a smile, slowly walked in front of Tang Long'er, and looked at her steadily.
"Hello, my name is Xue Zha, I am a newcomer who has just entered the Holy Courtyard, after I help you unify this sea area, I need you to help me find the distribution of various sea beasts. ”
Xue Zha said some of his basic information.
