Chapter Twenty-Nine: Soaring into the Sky
The red sunset does not hesitate to spread the sun on the vast sea, shining on all things in the world.
At the same time, it also covered the pirate ships anchored in the northwest with a blood-red light film, giving people a poignant feeling of the remnants of the sun like blood.
And as far as the eye can see, it is impossible to see how many pirate ships there are on the sea in the northwest.
If they're just a thousand or so pirate ships?
That's definitely a lie, but to say that there are 10,000 pirate ships would be an exaggeration.
But two or three thousand pirate ships will never be able to escape.
And from time to time, one or more pirate ships will come from different directions, slowly joining the middle of these pirate ships, and the total number is still increasing.
As for the maritime merchant ships that sailed out of the port of Blackwater City, these pirate ships with numerical superiority had no intention of stopping them at all.
This also allowed the Warrior and several other maritime merchant ships, a temporary fleet, to leave the port of Blackwater City with ease.
And Cao Yanchao, who was originally a little worried, couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw this situation, because he didn't expect that the people in the City Lord's Mansion were stupid enough, but these pirates were even more stupid and cute, which really made him drunk.
But soon, Cao Yanchao couldn't laugh.
It turned out that shortly after the Warrior led several maritime merchant ships out of port.
In the pirate ship group, which was originally calm, it was like a little water dripping into the oil pot, and an inexplicable restlessness suddenly broke out.
Then, from the pirate ship regiment that had been moored on the northwest coast, more than a dozen pirate clippers suddenly sleashed, and all of them killed the Warrior as if they had seen the enemy who killed their father.
And when Cao Yanchao saw their appearance clearly, he understood.
Aren't these pirate ships just some of the dozens of pirate ships that chased the Warrior this morning?
As the so-called catastrophe is coming, fly separately!
Originally, it was just a makeshift fleet, but when they saw so many pirate ships chasing after them, they were immediately frightened and scattered, and they all turned their bows and sailed towards the coastline to the east.
However, the Warrior did not have the slightest intention of turning, and continued to drive south.
If you can look down from the air, you can see that the Warrior is sailing into the encirclement network of more than a dozen pirate ships at high speed at this time.
It's like a big fish that throws itself into a net.
And with the passage of time, the distance between the two sides has reached the point where they can clearly see each other with the naked eye.
Even the arrogant shouts of the pirates on the pirate ship, Cao Yanchao could hear them clearly.
However, just when Cao Yanchao's heart was about to mention his throat, the Warrior passed by the oncoming pirate ship very beautifully, and waved his hand, leaving no clouds.
And at this time, Cao Yanchao finally woke up.
It turned out that Blackwater City was originally built at the confluence of two large rivers, and its dock area happened to be in a gentle river bay.
Therefore, when a maritime vessel wants to enter the port, it can only sail in slowly.
And when there are maritime merchant ships out of the port, they can easily sail out of the dock without much effort.
Then, all it takes is to sail the merchant ship to the middle of the river, and the turbulent water brought by the two large rivers can push the merchant ship out of the encirclement of the pirate ship as quickly as possible.
And the pirate ships that came towards the Warrior had been swimming against the current from the beginning, and once they missed the moment of contact between the two sides, by the time they tried to turn the bow and catch up again, the Warrior was already gone.
This time, Cao Yanchao's originally hanging heart finally let go.
And when Cao Yanchao's field of vision was over, he could no longer see any pirate ships.
Instead of slowing down, the Warrior began to accelerate continuously.
It wasn't long before the Warrior had accelerated to a state of super-high speed that an ordinary maritime merchant ship simply couldn't reach.
At this time, the bottom part of the Warrior had already left the sea, leaving only a shallow trace on the sea.
Soon after, the entire Warrior made a muffled "boom" sound, and then under the influence of some mysterious force, it flew completely.
First a meter, then a foot, and soon after, the Warrior completely left the sea and flew into the vast sky.
And as the Warrior continued to climb, it soared into the sky.
It flew all the way to the top of the clouds, and then slowly stopped rising.
Although the speed of progress has slowed down a lot, the Warrior still continues to move forward, but the direction of progress has changed from south to north, obviously this is to return to the rhythm of Blackwater.
This made Cao Yanchao a little speechless, this time and again, it was already the second time.
It seems that this Blackwater City is destined to become Cao Yanchao, one of the most important cities in this life.
However, Cao Yanchao at this time has nothing to complain about, although he has some impulsiveness, it does not mean that he likes brainless scare beeping.
Cao Yanchao didn't want to appear in a few episodes, so he died in a daze.
At this time, Cao Yanchao was standing on the deck of the Warrior, feeling the vastness of the sky while looking at the sea below the deck, and suddenly had a very wonderful feeling, which made him recall the feeling when he was on a plane in his previous life.
However, compared with the two, the flight of the Warrior is obviously more stable and quieter, of course, the most important thing is that Cao Yanchao was obviously standing on the deck, but he didn't feel the attack of the wind, he just felt that there was a gentle sea breeze constantly blowing on his face.
Although Cao Yanchao doesn't know much about the specific principle of this, it should be similar to the principle of that magic weapon!
Relying on a powerful magic array, the Warrior can fly, of course, this is only the most basic principle, and the specific operation method must be more complicated.
It's just that Cao Yanchao doesn't understand it for the time being.
After a while, although Cao Yanchao still wanted to continue to enjoy the beautiful scenery between the sea and the sky, he still had more important work to do, and finally he had to endure it and return to the kitchen to prepare dinner for everyone.
Soon after, Cao Yanchao selected an unknown piece of meat from a storage cabinet in the kitchen that was similar to a freezer, which was said to be the meat of a kind of Warcraft that was most widely cultivated in the world, which was probably equivalent to beef on the earth.
Then, Cao Yanchao used a kitchen knife in the kitchen to cut the meat pieces directly into a large portion of meat foam, and then put in five tablespoons of salt and five small sugar cubes, and then added some other unknown vegetables.
After that, the meat and vegetables are all stirred together and set aside to cool for half an hour, which is the first step of marinating.
Next, put all the marinated meat filling into a large pot and steam it with water for 10 minutes.
Soon after, the tender and delicious meat filling was done.
After that, Cao Yanchao began, and the process of making meat buns was after an hour of busy work.
Thirty tender and delicious meat buns appeared in this way.
Although because of the lack of the most critical yeast, the steamed buns made by Cao Yan are not very good-looking, and the dough is not elastic enough.
But the advantage is that the skin is thin and the filling is large, and the folds are distinct, like a flower bone that is budding.
In terms of taste, it is much better than Cao Yanchao's horn buns.
Due to the technology tree in this world, the points are a little crooked, so many things for daily use do not appear in this world.
Well, at least there are no seasonings on the Warrior, and the most common seasonings in the kitchen are only salt and sugar cubes, and as for MSG, don't think about it, not even the usual cooking oil.
The main cooking method in this world is mainly boiling, supplemented by baking, and the steaming method used by Cao Yanchao is actually an epoch-making black technology.
Therefore, Cao Yanchao had no choice but to do so.
Although the steamed buns made by Cao Yanchao are not as good as real Chinese food, it is no problem to fool a group of pig teammates who have never eaten real food.
Anyway, Cao Yanchao wouldn't think that what he made was worse than what Miss Nalan made.
You must know that the strength of this genius predecessor has already reached the point of earth-shattering ghosts and gods.
With Miss Nalan, in front of her, no matter how unpalatable Cao Yanchao's things are, they can't be more unpalatable than what she makes!
This little bit of confidence, Cao Yanchao still has.
After a total of one and a half hours of busy work.
When the night was as dark as ink, after the figure of the Warrior was completely obscured.
Only then did the Warrior slowly fly directly above Blackwater City.
It's not that the Warrior's speed has slowed down.
It was because Uncle Sam was worried that the secret of the Warrior's ability to fly would attract the peeps of some well-intentioned people, so he drove the spaceship to the thick clouds early.
It wasn't until night officially fell that the Warrior slowly came to the top of Blackwater.
And at this time, Cao Yanchao suddenly discovered a new situation.
The merchant ships that had left Blackwater City with the Warrior in the evening had now all become captives of the pirates.
Not only them, but dozens of never-before-seen merchant ships were also slowly moving on the surface of the sea, and they were heading in the direction of a large group of many pirate ships.
Although Cao Yanchao couldn't hear the sound from the sea due to the distance, he could clearly see the miserable appearance of the dozens of merchant ships.
Obviously, they were captured by the pirates after a very terrible battle.
At this time, Cao Yanchao remembered that this group of damn pirates actually adopted the method of encircling three queyi.
First of all, he deliberately let go, those maritime merchant ships who were bent on escaping.
And those lucky maritime merchant ships are basically loaded with all kinds of goods, and they can't run away at all, those light pirate ships.
Therefore, they can only turn the bow of their ship and sail to the east, because a few hundred miles to the east, there is a human city, and their navy will drive out pirates and protect maritime merchant ships.
However, what everyone did not expect was that on the eastern coastline, there was a large number of pirates who had set up an ambush there in advance.
As a result, he was captured by the pirates in one fell swoop, which is why there is such a huge result.
Only those maritime merchant ships heading all the way to the south can truly escape the catastrophe.
And as far as the current situation is concerned, it is not completely unprepared and unplanned for these pirates to dare to besiege Blackwater City so rampantly.
In normal times, the wealth of dozens of maritime merchant ships was captured at once, it would be enough to make these damned pirates fall into a frenzy.
However, this time is different from the previous situation, and it is clear that the vast wealth accumulated in Blackwater City for more than a hundred years is beckoning to these crazy pirates.
This will make this large group of pirates stay calm enough, so it is naturally impossible for them to easily let go of a large Blackwater City for the sake of the wealth of dozens of maritime merchant ships.
Therefore, an incomparably tragic siege battle is destined to happen.
It's just that these things have nothing to do with Cao Yanchao for the time being.
And after Cao Yanchao finished making steamed buns in the kitchen, he took the opportunity to give steamed buns to everyone and chatted with everyone for a while, which can be regarded as getting a lot of useful information.
Of course, the most important thing is the steamed buns made by Cao Yanchao, which are well received by everyone.
Everyone did not hesitate to express their praise.
Everyone said that Cao Yanchao was the best chef they had ever seen in their lives, and he was still the kind of top chef.
However, everyone's praise did not make Cao Yanchao feel any joy.
This is not true, because everyone criticized Cao Yanchao, saying that his steamed buns were too few, and only three steamed buns per person were enough, and such a small amount was not enough for them to eat.
The main reason is that Cao Yanchao doesn't want to be a chef, but now everyone has unanimously agreed that he can become the number one in the kitchen.
There is nothing more magical about the world than this.
Really, the more people don't like to do something, the more they will end up going in that direction.
This is really frustrating!
