Chapter 30 Adopted
Before you know it, the sky is bright.
The captain did not wait long, and there was still a thin morning mist in the air, and he set sail, passing the rest of the merchant ships that were already sitting in a circle. Neither side spoke, as if everyone didn't know about last night's events.
The captain did not complain that the rest of the merchant ships did not come to help, and for him, if he encountered such a thing, he would not rush to intervene, after all, he was risking his own life.
Both sides of the dragon throat stream are high mountain cliffs, the entrances and exits are relatively wide, but the dragon throat stream part is relatively narrow, so the water flow is very rapid, and a strong mountain wind has been formed, there are many reefs underneath, forming many undercurrents, so not veterans dare not easily cross the dragon throat stream.
Only in the morning when the wind is lighter and the boat is easier to maneuver, so it is easier to cross.
The captain is steady in the captain's room, the helm of the operation, to the sailors below the command, the ship is like a dexterous swallow, lightly avoiding the reef below, sometimes encountering an undercurrent, the whole ship will be shaken, but under the captain's operation, everything is fine.
Seeing that he couldn't help here, Jia went to the kitchen to make breakfast for everyone. Jia Yi is reluctant to make this kind of big pot dish, mainly because there are too many people, and the amount of dishes he cooks is too large, and he is too tired. However, people risked their lives for Jiayi last night, and in addition to giving money, Jiayi could only make a delicious meal to treat them.
Jiayi doesn't have any good choices, and he has to have a large amount, so after thinking about it for a long time, let's order some noodles for them.
He first took out a few fish, which he caught yesterday, but not by Jiayi. Last night's battle didn't make it to the kitchen, so the fish were alive and well. Jia Yi took out a amphora iron pot, which is a common wok-style in Jia Yi's previous life, but such a pot is not common here, and Jia Yi brought it himself. There was no iron pot on board, although it was a Chamber of Commerce ship.
Take out the pot and heat it, Jiayi pour oil at the bottom of the pot, after the oil is hot, add some diced salted fatty meat, boil out the meat oil, then add some green onions, garlic and chili peppers to stir-fry until fragrant, and then put in the cut and washed fish. Fry until both sides are yellowed, then add some wine to remove the smell, and finally, Jiayi also took out a small bottle of syrup and added a little bit to the fish, the sugar can add freshness to the fish. Next, add water and start boiling the soup.
After the fish has been fried, the soup will be milky white and taste good.
At the beginning of Rijia's noodles, he had to cook for more than 20 people, and there were a lot of noodles to be made. Jia Yi glanced at his small body, and it was directly a brute force technique blessed to him. If you don't have the blessing of magic, you probably have to have lunch when you make good noodles.
Even if Jia Yi continues to practice Tai Chi and has the blessing of magic, his arms are sore after kneading the noodles, if he doesn't know how to make knife noodles, Jia Yi is ready to make knife noodles directly. At the very least, it seems that it takes less effort to cut the dough than to roll out the dough thinly and shredd.
......
On one side, Jia Yi was battling with the dough, and on the other side, Rodney swam ashore and gathered the bandits who had been beaten away again.
When Jia Yi released the big fireball last night, the landing point was relatively backward, and Rodney stood relatively forward, and was hit by the fireball ** into the river. He saw that Jiayi's magic was so powerful in the water, and he didn't dare to continue to come out to make trouble, so he secretly ran away from the water.
Rodney sat on a large rock, his hair dripping with water, and he fought through the pain in his back. Although he was thrown into the water last night, it doesn't mean that he wasn't injured, the fireball exploded and burned his back, and now his back is unrecognizable, the only thing to be thankful for is that it is not even in the direction of the fireball explosion.
Looking at the chaotic bandits sitting or lying in front of him, Rodney said: "This time we have suffered a lot of losses, all of which are problems with the employer's information, and I will definitely ask the employer for this loss." You don't have to worry, follow me, I will give you all the commission this time. ”
"This time the losses are so heavy, why do I want to follow you. A man in the crowd said, his tone as if he was complaining, but the voice was just right for everyone to hear.
"Who, stand up and speak. Rodney stood up, his eyes wide, and swept through the crowd.
Seeing that no one answered, Rodney said: "If you don't even dare to stand up, you are not qualified to speak." ”
"Who said I wouldn't dare, shouldn't you bear such a heavy loss this time... Ahh The head of this bandit was taken over by Rodney.
"Now, do you have any opinions? I said that I would give you all the money this time. Rodney said, holding his bloody sword.
No one came from, as if they had fallen under the spell of silence.
I don't know where Rodney's sword came from, generally speaking, when they escape, they lose their armor, especially when they jump into the water to escape, it is not convenient to carry weapons, many people have lost their weapons. But I didn't expect Rodney to still carry it.
There are forty or fifty people gathered here, more than Rodney's original people, but the overall strength has not actually increased much, firstly, there are still several people in the team mixed together, there is no cohesion, let alone organizational discipline;
After being slightly intimidated by Rodney, he lost his sense of proportion, so he had to follow him.
This time Rodney was at a loss, and although the personnel seemed to have expanded a little, his most important flagship was burned, which burned more than half of Rodney's wealth. Even if everyone is integrated, there is no good way to replenish the ship's losses.
They are bandits, and even if they have money, it is not easy to buy a good ship, especially the kind of fast battleship. Moreover, most of the water bandits' weapons were thrown into the water, and it was a lot of money to equip weapons for the small ones.
Now, Rodney can only suppress them with violence first, and the rest will be said slowly, as long as he succeeds in a few robberies, the morale is estimated to be able to return, and at the same time, let the people who disobey him take the lead and kill all the opponents with knives. Rodney was born in the Knights, and although he was only a knight squire, he was still a regular army, and he was always much stronger than these bandits.
......
By the time he crossed the Dragon's Throat Stream, the sun had reached a 45-degree angle, and Jia Yi did not bring a clock, so he could only estimate that it was about 9 o'clock.
The ship passed the Dragon's Throat Stream, and the sailors could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and after a big battle, they had to concentrate on crossing the Dragon's Throat Stream in the morning, and they had a great deal of physical strength and energy.
Kissin came to the kitchen and asked as soon as he entered the door: "Young Master Jiayi, I heard that you personally cooked breakfast for us, I didn't expect you to cook." ”
Kaichi took a piece of cloth and uncovered the fish soup and said, "If you ask your captain, you will know that we sometimes have to travel abroad, so cooking is not difficult for us." ”
Jiayi tasted the fish soup and felt that it was almost enough, so he took the fish soup aside, fortunately the pot in which the soup was cooked was big enough, otherwise the fish soup would not be enough.
"Kissin, come here, have we already crossed the Dragon's Throat Stream?"
"Yes, I just heard that you were cooking, so I happened to come and have a look. ”
"Well, do you see the dough and the dough? roll the dough out with that stick and cut it into thin strips. "Kaichi has already cut a small pile of noodles, but he can't even do half of it, and when he sees Kisin, he just happens to be a hard worker, and he can't even care if he's still injured.
Kissin also has no opinion, not to mention how many people Jia Yi saved last night, it is what he can't ask for to be able to have a good relationship with a mage. The sailors have speculations about the real reason for the attack of the bandits, but they are not sure, and, even if they do, they will not say anything to Kaichi. Not to mention the difference in identity, Jiayi's giving money and cooking to the sailors is a good thing they have never encountered, and as for the death of a few sailors, this is really normal.
Jiayi is still quite simple now, and when he sees more in the future, he probably won't take human life seriously, in fact, there is this sign now, for the enemy, he is generally a direct killer.
Now, if Kaichi comes forward and says that he wants to recruit some retinue, he will ensure that everyone will be impressed, including the captain.
