Chapter 254: Pirates

Obviously, the pirates were sneaking in the dark to follow them, and by the time the crew found out, the heavy draft cargo ship had nowhere to escape.

Li Ji is the first time in his life to see this kind of legendary profession, whether in the past life or in this life, he is very curious, looking out of the porthole, the pirate ship is less than three or four miles away from the Sea Eagle, in the sea, this distance is not far, and the distance between the two sides is still narrowing.

There is a pirate ship, a large ship with thousands of materials, slightly larger than the Sea Eagle, the mast is arrogantly hung with the pirate flag, the whole hull is slender and concise, full of a sense of speed, at first glance it is a professional ship to do this business, such a close distance, not to mention that the Sea Eagle is still full of goods, even if it is an empty ship, I am afraid it will not be able to outrun this pirate ship.

The crew members were all concentrated on the approaching side of the pirate ship, each holding a long and short weapon, and they were also in good order under the dispatch of the black sea, and it could be seen that these people also had some experience of similar scenes, and they were not panicked, I don't know if they were holding their own force, or did they know that there were Taoist priests on board to help?

The pirate ship was getting closer and closer, and it was less than fifty feet, and with Li Ji's eyesight, he could even see the pirates' eyebrows on the deck, and the black sea shouted loudly, cheering up the crew of the guards who were about to die, and ordered the passengers not to go out or probe their brains when they returned to the cabin.

He is a very experienced ship boss, and he knows that if these passengers are allowed to run around casually, not only will they not be able to help, but they will also be more likely to demoralize the crew if they shout and cry for their fathers and mothers.

When the two sides were more than 30 feet apart, they began to shoot bows and crossbows at each other, and on the sea, even if the wind and sun were beautiful today, it was very difficult to shoot the bumpy ships, and most of the arrows did not know what to do, and occasionally those who shot at each other were also weak and weak, just to scare each other.

The two whaling forks on the bow of the boat, Li Ji can also see that they are used to deal with the giant beasts in the sea, and they are useless in the ships attacking each other.

There are no thermal weapons in this world, and the battle between ships is very simple, shooting at each other, getting closer, jumping gangs, and at most adding tactics such as crashing and sinking; the pirates are seeking money, where can they find the goods after sinking the ship? Therefore, the only purpose of this pirate ship is to get close to the future jumping gang, and there are nearly 100 pirates standing densely on the deck of the pirate ship, all of them are fierce and vicious, and they really jump up, and they may not be able to stop the black sea.

The Sea Eagle dodged back and forth in a zigzag pattern, but the draught flexibility was placed there, and it could not stop the approach of the pirate ship with the same superb sailing skills; when the distance was less than ten zhang, the pirates shot their hooks and claws, and under the pull, the distance between the two ships approached in vain, and the pirates who were already anxious jumped up, although they were cut down by the Sea Hawk together, but as the side of the ship approached, more and more pirates jumped up, and the fierce melee battle was about to break out.

The Taoist invited by Wu Dahai stood behind everyone on the side of the ship, and when the pirate ship approached, he instigated and took out a fireball talisman, and it took the boss's strength to start, but he couldn't throw it far, and was blown back to the Sea Eagle by the sea breeze, and fell into a pile of ropes.

Boss Wu looked at it from the side, shocked and angry, knowing that this time he had met someone who ate soft rice.

It is very common for a caravan sailing between the twin peaks and the sea to ask a monk to sit in charge, but few monks specialize in this business, and most of them only run when they are short of money, so they are very mobile; some monks are strong and dare to fight hand-to-hand in close quarters, even if they are lucky to invite such a monk; some monks just heard that it is easy to get money by running a ship, and they may not have the courage to fight in close combat.

The worst thing is that you can't try it on the shore, and you don't even dare to ask, which annoys the Taoist, a fireball is thrown over, and you have to shed your skin if you don't die, on the shore, the Taoist is not something that mortals can provoke.

Boss Wu's bad luck this time, he met such a person who eats and drinks and mixes money, it's not that Taoists don't work hard and don't talk about credit, but they can't use spells, and they don't have the courage to get close.

Originally, there were more than 70 crew members and guards on the Sea Eagle's side, and if you removed the inseparable ship, you could make up more than 50 people, and if you add a powerful Taoist, you may not be able to resist it;

Seeing more and more pirates jumping off the Sea Eagle, the black boss and the others showed signs of being overwhelmed, but they heard a sharp whistling in the air, and a javelin instantly shot a fierce and hideous pirate leader who rushed into the Sea Eagle, and the javelin pierced deep into the deck, forming a strange support with the leader, as if a herringbone.

Before the pirates could react, another javelin whistled out, this time, unfortunate was the second leader who was still left on the pirate ship to give the command, and the powerful kinetic energy directly brought this big man up, and even the people with guns nailed to the bulkhead, unable to die for a while, and unable to break free, screaming in vain.

The big leader, who was standing outside the helm cabin, reacted quickly, snatched a large iron shield from the hands of his subordinates, and protected it in front of him, but this military iron shield did not bring him safety, and the whistling sound began again, and everyone saw that it was a young man with an ordinary face on the upper floor of the Sea Eagle.

The gun was fired, and the fate of the big boss was no different from that of the second child, the only difference was that a huge iron shield was worn on the javelin, and almost instantly, the pirate was killed after the three heads were ahead, and it was only two breaths before and after.

Li Ji has never practiced throwing javelins, but among the Liuhe swordsmanship he learned when he first crossed over, there is a style of sword-throwing tricks;

Under the six senses, the slightest hint of the javelin poured into the sword Qi can not be stopped by ordinary soldiers?

The so-called snake does not walk without a head, people do not move without a head, the death of the three leaders immediately made the pirates panic, they are not an army, and there is no strict discipline, usually brave and dare to fight one for wealth, the other is forced by the leader, this lost the leader, immediately messed up.

There were those who turned around and wanted to jump back into the pirate ship, there were those who wanted to find Li Ji desperately, there were those who jumped into the sea to escape, and there were those who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and the situation settled down instantly.

Li Ji didn't bid for guns again, the first evil was eliminated, and the rest lost their morale, and they had their own bosses to solve it; the rules on the sea, how to deal with pirates, he didn't want to care, and he shouldn't care.

In the end, the pirate ship still escaped, the pirates were killed twenty or thirty, there were still sixty or seventy left on the ship, plus the fear that there must be a hundred people left behind to operate the pirate ship;

Boss Wu saw that Li Ji had no intention of making another move, and he also restrained his subordinates not to chase after him, until the pirate ships were about to disappear, and he saw that the two merchant ships behind him were late;
