Chapter 192: Walking Together (1st Update)
As a result of the previous battle, Xue Zha quickly became one with the pirate team.
Xue Zha's strength has also won the respect of the pirates, and at sea, everything is based on strength, which is an immutable iron law.
What's more, Xue Zha also saved the lives of several people.
For pirates, although they do a living by pinning their heads to their belts, who is really not afraid of death?
Therefore, for the people who saved their lives, they are still grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
Xue Zha was warmly invited to a campfire.
As soon as he sat down, someone threw a water bag at him.
Xue Zhe took it, turned around directly, and saw a man with a beard on his face smiling at him.
"Thank you just now, brother, this bag of wine is for you, this is a good wine that I am usually reluctant to drink. ”
As soon as the bearded man finished speaking, a person beside him couldn't help it.
"Come on, who doesn't know that the wine was brewed for you by your mother-in-law at home, and you don't let your brothers try it, why are you so generous today?"
The man's words made the bearded old man blush, and he glared at the former fiercely.
"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!"
It seemed that someone had grabbed the handle, and in an instant, laughter rang out all around.
"Hahahaha! I think what he said is right, Lao Hu, this is your fault, isn't good wine supposed to be shared by everyone?"
There are people who are not afraid of big things and stand up and sarcastically mock the beard.
"Get out of the way! If you dare to talk nonsense, believe it or not, I'll beat you!"
The beard was about to get up, but he was quickly pressed back by the people around him.
And Xue Zha, looking down at the water bladder in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth quietly raised a curvature.
"What a nice bunch of people, it seems that many pirates are not forced by life, they just yearn for that free and adventurous spirit, after all, the sea is vast, and many places are full of unknowns. ”
Xue Zha grabbed the water bladder, stood up, and walked directly to the beard.
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.
