Chapter 44: Three Emperors and Five Kings (Second Watch)

Tang Long'er and Captain Jack both had different expressions on their faces, but there was a trace of doubt and incomprehension in their eyes.

"Brother Zha, why are you leaving? Didn't you say that we would help you complete the task together?"

Tang Long'er was obviously very reluctant for Xue Zha to leave, and her face was a little anxious.

Xue Zha picked up the chopsticks on the table, gave Tang Long'er a bun and put it in front of her.

"I'll tell you the truth, when I came out of the Holy Courtyard, they gave me a month, and I had a lot of time delayed before, and it also took a lot of time to make potions and ambush Brother Jie, so there was not much time left for me. ”

After Xue Zha finished speaking, without waiting for Tang Long'er to speak, Captain Jack on the side was the first to speak.

"Brother Xue, if it's just hunting sea beasts, Tang Dangjia and I can help you, with the potion you made, how many sea beasts are not a problem, why are you?"

Captain Jack didn't understand Xue Zha's thoughts, so he didn't use the resources in front of him, but left alone, he couldn't figure it out and couldn't understand it.

Xue Zha looked at the two of them and smiled slightly.

"You guys...... You've been on the sea all day and you're familiar with the sea, but I'm not, and I need to explore the surrounding waters in order to get more useful information. ”

In fact, Xue Zha didn't say so, but his thoughts were far more than that, since the Holy Courtyard sent him out to hunt sea beasts, his strength alone was too weak.

Even if he had potions to use, and even with the help of Captain Jack and Tang Long'er, it was only in this small area of water.

To put it bluntly, Xue Zha has his own vision and pattern, although the sea is very large and boundless, he has the ability to control the living force on the sea in his hands.

This is something he has thought about before.

On the sea, there are the Holy Courtyard, the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, various pirates and sea beasts, and many forces are mixed, interconnected and mutually restrictive.

But Xue Zha saw an opportunity from it.

Although Tang Long'er also mentioned yesterday that pirates were afraid of encountering the encirclement and suppression of the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, they were the organization that lived at sea for the longest time except for sea beasts, and they had their own set of survival rules.

Moreover, even if the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu fought for many years, they needed the sea to obtain resources, wouldn't the ships and soldiers sent by them be elite?

At the same time, pirates must also be hostile to the Holy Academy, although Xue Zha has not seen many people from the Holy Academy, but from Wang Zhi and Zhao Shi, they can see that the people of the Holy Court are also not weak.

Even if what Tang Long'er said yesterday was right, Xue Zha also thought it was very one-sided.

They can't compete with the national army of the Wei, Shu and Wu Kingdoms, and they can't compete with the Holy Court, which doesn't mean that all pirates are like this.

The sea is vast, who can be sure that there are no pirates with the strength of a saint, or pirates who are not afraid of the armies of the Three Kingdoms?

Since the pirate force has always been able to exist at sea, in addition to their mobility and particularity, strength is also one thing.

Xue Zha believes in the principle of the communicator, where several containers with interconnected bottoms are injected with the same liquid, and the liquid level of each container in the communicator is always kept on the same level when the liquid is not flowing, even if several connected containers are of different shapes.

Therefore, compared to the two forces of the Holy Court and the Three Kingdoms, Xue Zha was more inclined to pirates.

Moreover, he was born in the rivers and lakes, and it would not be very difficult to deal with pirates and pirates.

"It seems a little sad that even I, an inland person, did not understand the vastness of the sea, and that they did not understand it as people who lived on the sea. ”

But Xue Zha didn't say this sentence after all, he didn't want Tang Long'er and Captain Jack to be ashamed.

Still, he had a question in mind.

When Xue Zha picked up the chopsticks and threw a piece of pastry into his mouth, chewed it for a while and swallowed it, he spoke.

"By the way, I want to ask you one thing, are there any particularly powerful pirates at sea?"

After Xue Zhe asked this question, Tang Long'er and Captain Jack were stunned again.

Didn't you just talk about you leaving? Why did you suddenly change the subject?

However, the two were surprised, but they still answered Xue Zhe's question, and the person who spoke was Captain Jack.

"Brother Xue, although I don't know why you ask such a question, I would like to advise you before telling you, don't try to hit their ideas. ”

Xue Zha looked at Captain Jack's solemn expression, and there was even a hint of fear in the corners of his eyes, knowing that the information he wanted was finally coming.

"There has always been a legend of the Three Emperors and Five Kings on the sea, and the eight of them are the real overlords of the sea, especially the three emperors, each occupying a place. ”

Although Captain Jack tried his best to suppress his emotions, he still couldn't hide the fear on his face, so much so that his voice began to tremble.

This made Xue Zha have to wonder if the Captain Jack in front of him had ever been caught by the so-called Three Emperors and Five Kings.

Xue Zhe's guess was actually right, Captain Jack had met one of the emperors, although he was only glanced at by the other party, he felt that his whole body could not move, an invisible hand choked him tightly, and even breathing was a problem.

In the end, it seemed that it was only a temporary suggestion from the other party, and soon Jack regained his freedom.

When he knelt on the ground and gasped violently, he yelled at his men and left quickly.

To this day, Captain Jack still remembers the glimpse of that day very well.

Although Xue Zhe didn't know exactly what happened to Captain Jack, he still wanted to find out the information about these eight people.

"Brother Jie, since they are the three emperors and five kings, who are these eight people?"

Xue Zhe finally asked the question, even though he knew it would make Captain Jack uncomfortable.

As Xue Zhe's voice fell, Captain Jack's body trembled suddenly, but he still held his body, but his face was a little pale.

Then, Captain Jack spoke slowly.

Xue ...... Brother Xue, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but the names of these people can't be called out casually, and legend has it that they all have 'other hearts' and can sense the people who are discussing them. ”

When Xue Zhe heard Captain Jack's words, he did not show mockery or disdain, but frowned.

This seems to be similar to the saint's 'don't look directly at the saint', and sure enough, the strength of the so-called three emperors and five kings is no less than that of the saint. ”

But Xue Zha has his own way.

He pulled out a blank piece of paper and an envelope from the sea gourd, along with a brush.

"Since I can't speak, then please ask Brother Jie to write his name on this piece of paper, and I'll look at it after I leave, even if they have 'other minds', but what is written on the paper is difficult for them to perceive, and even if they perceive it, it has nothing to do with you. ”

Xue Zha smiled slightly, got up and handed the pen and paper in his hand to Captain Jack.

Tang Long'er saw Captain Jack take the pen and paper with trembling hands, and his mind was full of doubts.

"What kind of existence is a person who even the toughest people in this sea are so afraid of. ”

Tang Long'er has not seen the so-called Three Emperors and Five Kings, but he has also heard the legend of these eight people, since it is a legend, she also listens to it as a pastime story, but today she knows that these eight people really exist, but she has not seen it.

However, even if these eight people are strong, it has nothing to do with her, and her eyes have always been on Xue Zha.

"Brother Zha, are you still going to leave after all?"
