Chapter 004: Land and Sea Giant

"Big brother, be careful—"

The Guanzhong caravan was fighting to the death with the Japanese on the deck, each with casualties, and Qin Leopard suddenly saw a row of black hole muskets aiming in his direction, and in danger, he hurriedly pushed Qin Hu down.

Bang bang –

A barrage swept by.

Qin Bao suddenly felt a burst of heat on his body, and then he collapsed......

"Leopard! Leopard-" Qin Hu looked at Qin Leopard, who had been shot, his chest was pierced by a bullet, and he was lying in a pool of blood, spasmodic.

"Give...... To my father and mother, report safety......" Qin Bao said, angry.

He glared at Chen Sipan, the one-eyed dragon on the upper deck.

The caravan was full of casualties, and the rest were besieged beasts.

The musketeers were reloaded, and the holes of the black holes were aimed at them again.

Chen Sipan raised his hand and said slowly: "Leave the lives of these slaves, I want to sell them for a good price!"

The scarface leader looked down and said to the deck herald: "Slut slave, Leader Chen has spoken, hurry up and put down your weapon and obediently go back to the original place, otherwise, the muzzle of the gun next to me will not grow eyes!"

No one laid down his weapons and swore to die.

The Scarface Leader showed a wicked smile and said, "It seems that you have to kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys!" As he spoke, he picked up a bird gun and shot a person immediately.

Chen Sipan didn't speak, obviously acquiescing.

The Scarface Boss said again: "I'll count one, two, three, if you don't surrender, I'll kill one more!"

Qin Hu suddenly stood up and said angrily, "Chen Duyan—"

"Huh?" Chen Sipan looked at him, with one eye.

Qin Hu scolded: "As a Han Chinese, why did you lose your conscience and harm your own race!"

"A slave, why are you talking to me?" Chen Sipan said, raising a delicate reed wheel gun aimed at Qin Hu, and said a word lightly: "Death." ”

Since the moment the hatch came out, Qin Hu never thought that he would still be alive, he stared at the eye-catching black hole, his face was pale, and there was no trace of fear.

Chen Sipan lowered the muzzle of the gun, just as the trigger was about to be pulled, but he heard a sharp whistling in his ears......

Whew-

Sounds come from far and near.

Qin Hu and the others subconsciously lowered their heads.

Boom –

A cannonball flew from a distance, scattering wood chips from the second deck of the ship, flesh and blood flying, and the entire hull shook violently.

"What's going on!" Chen Sipan held on to the guardrail beside him and yelled on it.

"Enemy ship, enemy ship—" shouted one of the warship leaders.

In the distance, a giant ship broke through the sea fog.

"Shoot back! Shoot back!" the Scarface leader on the deck hurriedly ordered.

"Hay, Hay—" A few of the pirates hurried to operate the Franco's cannon, only to hear a few more whirring sounds.

Suddenly, the water column on the sea surface poured into the sky, and the Japanese who were loading ammunition were blown up.

A fire broke out on the deck of the Japanese ship, and there was chaos.

Qin Hu took advantage of the chaos to rush forward, picked up a Japanese knife on the ground, turned his hand to pierce the two Japanese robbers, and waved the short knife in his hand to kill a small leader.

"Good boy in Guanzhong, kill me-"

Qin Hu gave up his self, spun and slashed, ignoring the raging fire, walked all the way up the stairs, slashed another widow in the way, and rushed to the deck of the second floor.

The ground was littered with the corpses of the musketeers, and the scar-faced leader was seen burning all over his body, one leg being blown off by a cannonball, and he was moving on the ground in agony.

"Ahh

Qin Hu squatted down, stretched out his hand and said, "Dog minion, return the things to me!"

Scarface Boss yells, "I didn't, I didn't!"

Qin Hu searched on him for a while, and finally found the tiger head gold, but at this time, the scar-faced leader's hand trembled and took out a dagger, and stabbed at Qin Hu, Qin Hu hurriedly raised his hand to parry, and his elbow was immediately pierced, and blood flowed everywhere.

"Give me back, give me back—" Scarface shouted.

Qin Hu gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger, and said, "Give it back!" and stabbed the dagger back to the scarface leader, penetrating the neck, and the scarface leader shook twice on the ground, and there was no sound again. Qin Hu endured the pain and put the tiger head gold into his arms.

Moving on, Qin Hu climbed the platform on the third floor of the deck with difficulty.

"Chen Duyan, where are you?"

"Chen Duyan, you traitor! You scumbag! Give back my brother's life—"

In the balcony, the bead curtain is flying.

"Hmph, it's this human slave again, the ghost is not gone!" Chen Sipan pointed with his hand, "It turned out to be him!"

Beside Chen Sipan, four fully armored warriors held their swords high and walked towards Qin Hu.

"Kill-" Qin Hu shouted loudly, raising his sword and about to fight to the death, when he suddenly heard a piercing scream in his ears.

Whew-

Qin Hu hurriedly covered his ears and prostrate down.

Boom –

The armor pieces on the sword armor were scattered, and the limbs were blown to the ground, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

In the balcony, there was already a smoke of gunpowder.

"Chen Duyan, return my brother's life. Qin Hu stood up and shouted.

Under the shelling, Chen Sipan also fell to the ground at this time, his face and body were all pierced by sawdust, and the blood flowed all over the ground, which was terrifying, he saw Qin Hu go upstairs, hurriedly freed his hand, and groped for the Western pistol beside him, just aimed at Qin Hu, he was kicked by Qin Hu, Qin Hu's short knife stabbed down, the short knife was held in the hand of the woman who opened the hatch for him, and now it was stabbed into Chen Sipan's chest.

"Uh-you...... Unthinkable...... I was ...... by you."

Boom –

Unfortunately, the Japanese ship was shot again, and the roof of the ship was overturned.

Qin Hu only felt that the sparks around him kept falling, and the floor where he and Chen Sipan were located collapsed and fell into the attic of the second deck, and a widow was crushed to death on the spot by the falling wooden blocks.

Chen Sipan died, Qin Hu was also stunned by the impact of the cannonball, he climbed forward with difficulty, leaned on the wooden pile, and did not relax for a long time.

Several Japanese robbers found him and stepped forward with Japanese knives to hack Qin Hu to death. At this time, Qin Hu was almost unconscious, and he didn't have the strength to resist, but in a trance, he saw two figures rushing in......

After a few times of raising and falling with knives, those would-be robbers fell to the ground and died, and then Qin Hu was helped up.

"Owner, owner!"

Qin Hu shook his head, and his consciousness gradually slowed down.

"The ship is sinking, owner, let's take you away!"

It turned out to be Qin Zhang and Qin Ye, Qin Hu's two most powerful generals. After the two of them finished speaking, they drove Qin Hu out of the attic left and right.

The lower deck was now in disarray, the sails were on fire, the burning rags were flying in the sky, a mast was tipping diagonally, and huge wood was crackling and crackling.

Qin Hu swayed to the side of the boat, "Owner, owner!" Qin Hu only had a buzz in his ears, and he couldn't hear anything else.

"Master, we have to jump into the sea! we have to jump, the ship is going to sink—"

"No! no...... I think...... I want to take another look at my brother!" Qin Hu finished speaking and walked towards the center of the deck.

"You can't go, owner, you can't go now!" the two generals hurriedly dissuaded him and stopped him.

Qin Hu suddenly felt a violent shock on the deck under his feet, boom - the fire in front of him was vigorous, it turned out that the powder magazine was hit by a cannonball, and the cabin was suddenly in a sea of fire, and the Japanese on the deck jumped into the water with a big fire, like dumplings.

"Owner, offend!" Qin Ye and Qin Zhang made a look, the two of them lifted Qin Hu and threw it into the sea, and the two of them also pounced and plunged into the sea, at the same time, the hull exploded twice, and several tongues of fire burst out of the porthole.

Boom –

A piece of the deck of the ship was blown up into the sky, and after a few turns, the giant tree fell into the water of a group of struggling Japanese robbers, and suddenly a splash of blood splattered.

The hull began to flood, tons of seawater gurgled into the hold, and the hull tilted to one side. The sea was already in chaos, and hundreds of would-be robbers were thrashing in the water, screaming incessantly.

Qin Zhang and Qin Ye protected Qin Hu and kept swimming.

Nearby, Qin Zhang saw a piece of driftwood with the corpse of a widow on it, Qin Zhang swam forward with all his might, kicked the corpse into the sea, swam back with the driftwood, and put Qin Hu on it to float with Qin Ye.

Boom - Boom - Boom - Boom -

On the sea, huge ships approached, and the gunwales roared.

"Officers and soldiers...... It's the boat of the officers and soldiers!" Qin Ye shouted while swimming in the water while holding the driftwood.

"Look, owner, we're ...... There is salvation!" Qin Zhang also shouted excitedly.

Qin Hu was already prostrate on the driftwood, and his physical strength was almost collapsed.

The size of the ship was already very large, but compared to the huge ship, it was simply a flat boat.

There was a loud bang, and a flywheel was lowered from the giant ship, setting off a white wave.

This kind of small warship was founded in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, can carry more than 10 people, its ship has a pair of wooden oars on each side of the ship, the people in the cabin can step on the wheel axle to drive the navigation, maneuverability can be described as excellent.

At this moment, in the flywheel, two sturdy men with tattooed hair were stomping on the oars, and three tattooed water were guarding the side of the ship with knives.

The widows, who were struggling to survive on the sea, found their way to life, and were willing to let go, and desperately swam to the flywheel, competing to cling to it, but the tattooed sailor in the flywheel raised his knife and slashed without mercy.

The crowd screamed and fell into the sea. On the blood-colored sea, countless fingers floated.

The flywheel shook off the Japanese and shuttled on the sea like the wind, and came to Qin Hu and the three of them at once.

"Hurry up, severals of you!" said one of the tattooed sailors in the cabin, and the other dropped the cable into the sea.

With the help of the sailors, Qin Hu, Qin Zhang, and Qin Ye were rescued one by one and lay side by side in the cabin. The three of them all walked out of the ghost gate, and at this time they suddenly felt reborn. "Dare to ask...... How many graces are there?" Qin Hu asked the sailors.

The tattooed man turned around and said, "We are the subordinates of Haicheng Gong!"

"Who is Haicheng Gong?" Qin Hu asked.

"It's our big boss!"

After the tattooed man finished speaking, he was busy tying up the bow and stern of the flywheel.

Qin Hu didn't hear it well, and he was a big leader, but he didn't just get out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den, but at this time, their physical strength was almost exhausted, and it was a fool's dream to resist.

Qin Hu clearly saw the painted relief on the giant ship, it was a flying dragon.

Dada-

On the deck of the giant ship, several riders galloped back and forth.

The tattooed man turned his head and hurriedly said to the three, "Cover your ears!"

The rider reined in his horse and raised his flag and shouted the order: "Open fire on the port side!"

Suddenly, there was a roar, a volley of heavy artillery, and clouds of white smoke rose.

The cannonballs flew out in a parabola, and as soon as the sea surface was discharged, the column was stirred up.

Qin Hu opened his eyes, and not far away, the two escort ships of the would-be robbers who had fled in a hurry exploded on the spot, and a burst of fire broke out on the deck.

The rider galloped back, raised the flag and ordered: "All gun positions, aim at the enemy ship!"

The gun emplacements continued to adjust their angles.

Boom, boom, boom –

Under several bombardments, the three Japanese ships were wiped out and sank into the ocean one after another. All that remained, there were splinters of wood floating on the surface of the sea, and hundreds of pirates fluttering in the water, and the sea was in a tumultuous ......

The giant ship was killed three times in a row, and the tattooed sailors on the deck all cheered.

The deck of the giant ship, the building is as high as a city, the horses are galloping downstairs, the armor is like a forest upstairs, at the top of the platform, there is a big red flag, embroidered with the word "Song", and there is a man standing under it, he is majestic and strong, the appearance is heroic, a red shawl is flying in the wind, and he is obviously the master of the giant ship.

Qin Hu looked at the fluttering flag, and was surprised in his heart, today is the Ming Dynasty, Song Zuo has been overthrown for many years, how can he appear here......

Just thinking of this, I saw the Lord of the Giant Ship walking off the deck, and more than a hundred Tang Sword Armor Soldiers followed closely. A sailor brought medicine to treat Qin Hu and others, and brought dry food and water for them to eat.

"A few brothers, sit down, don't be polite!" the captain raised his hand.

Qin Zhang and Qin Yeqiang got up and said, "Thank you Engong for saving your life!"

Qin Hu really couldn't support it, so he had to sit on the ground and clench his fists and say, "This leader...... Saving me is equal to fire and water, the virtue of regeneration, no teeth are unforgettable! I don't know how to respect my name, Qin Hu will be rewarded in the future!"

"Under Wang Lie, the word Haicheng, a person from Huizhou. ”

Qin Hu later learned that the fleet led by Wang Lie was a large-scale civilian armed trading group, which had repeatedly been invited by the local government to defeat the likes of Chen Sipan and save many coastal people who had been taken captive.

......

In the hall of Haw Par Villa, Qin Hu finished talking about what happened back then from beginning to end.

"In the end, there were only three of us left in the caravan, I thought it was the officers and soldiers who came to save us, but I didn't think it was Haicheng Gong of Huizhou...... After a few days of sailing on the sea, Haicheng returned to Ningbo, and Haicheng generously gave me travel expenses to help me return to Guanzhong and reorganize my family business, which is why we are today. ”

"Good, good—"

For a while, the audience clapped their hands and thundered, and the hall was applauded.

Everyone in the Qin family held their cups and stood up.

"This glass of wine, toast Hai Chenggong!" Qin Hu said.

"Respect Hai Chenggong!" everyone stood up and raised their glasses.

Wang Lie also stood up and said: "In life, it is our duty to do good deeds and accumulate virtues. It's a real pleasure. Wang Lie picked up the wine glass and said: "Haicheng originally quit the contents of this cup, but now seeing the hospitality of the public, it is okay to get drunk!"

"Okay--"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank them all before they sat down.

"Haicheng, you came to Guanzhong this time, I don't know what you have to do?" Qin Hu asked.

"Oh, since Brother Meng Qiu asked, then I'll just say it-"

"Engong just say it! If there is a sending, Meng Qiudaoshan and the sea of fire will also be unremitting, please Engong must not be polite!"

"I was going to travel west to Kunlun, but on the way here, I saw a great drought in Guanzhong, starvation everywhere, and the people were struggling to make a living, so I scattered all the gold and silver on my body. Now, I am also poor, and I can't even afford to feed the horses, and I hope that the owner of the village will help me on the road, noncommittal, hehe......" Wang Lie said with a smile.

The whole hall fell silent.

Qin Ye looked at Qin Zhang, and Qin Zhang looked at Qin Hu.

It is said that Qin Hu is also a benevolent master, if a beggar comes to the door to beg for money, it is not surprising, and it is not surprising that hungry people come to beg for food.

"Did I hear it wrong?" Qin Hu smiled at Wang Lie: "Haha, is this still the rich Haicheng Duke in the world?"

"It is exactly, in the past, there was Tao Zhu Gong's three scattered family wealth, hehehe, I am the same now. ”
