Chapter 2507 My Wife is a Pirate 36
The two large ships slowly sailed into the designated sea area.
A whistle that was almost imperceptible to others came from underwater again.
The pirates who had been lurking on the seabed in disguise and the fishermen who were good at swimming swam silently to the bottom of the ship like a school of nimble fish.
They took out special tools and began to work quickly and covertly on the weak spots on the bottom of the ship.
Not long after, the soldiers on the ship were alarmed to find that the hull began to tilt abnormally and the waterline was getting deeper and deeper.
"Master Liu, Master Liu! This is bad! The bottom of this boat... seems to be broken! It's leaking and is about to sink!"
The soldier hurried into the cabin to report.
When the pampered Lord Liu and several officials on the ship heard this, they were immediately panicked.
These officials who had lived in the capital for a long time had no idea about the intricacies of maritime operations and were immediately frightened out of their wits.
Just then, several small fishing boats happened to pass by.
Lord Liu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and no longer cared about showing off his official power, and hurriedly shouted for help.
But even when calling for help, the tone was condescending and condescending.
It seemed as if it was a great honor for the fishermen to rescue them.
The veteran fishermen who were driving the boat hesitated for a while before reluctantly agreeing to let some officials board their boat first.
"Sir, this place is still quite far from our Bailangao. I'm afraid your boat has a hole underneath and can't make it. So I'd better take these lords back first and call for more boats to rescue you."
Lord Liu was the first one to jump onto the fisherman's boat impatiently, urging them to set sail quickly.
The remaining officers and soldiers could only stay where they were, anxiously waiting for the fishermen to go back and call more boats for rescue.
Little did they know that danger had already quietly approached.
The three fishing boats carrying officials did not sail towards Bailangao, but headed straight for the ambush circle that had been set up long ago, where the main force of the pirates was waiting.
At the same time, another team of pirates sailed out from behind the reef in a light boat and quickly surrounded the two large ships that were taking on heavy water and moving slowly.
The officers and soldiers on the ship lost their command and were in waters they were completely unfamiliar with. They were suddenly in chaos and didn't know how to respond.
On the largest fishing boat, Bu Changji and Jinchen walked out of the low cabin at the same time.
Bu Changji raised the long sword in his hand, and the blade flashed coldly in the sunlight.
He shouted, "Surround them! Beat them up! If you can kidnap them alive, I'll give you three taels of silver!"
The pirates and fishermen behind him were greatly encouraged by what they heard, and they rushed forward with a roar!
The two large ships were already taking on water and tilting, and after being hit by so many small boats, they shook even more violently.
The officers and soldiers on the ship could not even stand steadily, and their fighting capacity was greatly reduced. They were thrown like dumplings one after another by the agile pirates and fishermen, or kicked directly into the sea.
"Damn it! A bunch of troublemakers!" A soldier yelled in frustration, "Quick! Fire the gunpowder barrels! Blow up these ignorant bastards!"
The power of a powder keg is no joke.
Seeing this, Jinchen's eyes turned cold and he stood at the bow again.
The pirates who were familiar with his methods immediately understood what he meant when they saw this. They no longer cared about kidnapping people and hurriedly called on the fishermen to quickly drive their boats away.
Soon, shadows were seen approaching rapidly from under the sea in the distance. They were schools of ferocious sharks.
That group of sharks was so terrifying. Their huge bodies were looming in the water, and their sharp dorsal fins cut through the water, filled with the chilling murderous aura of the overlord of the sea.
They madly attacked the two shaky ships.
Most of the officers and soldiers had lived inland for a long time and had never seen such a scene. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and their legs were shaking.
Someone tried to light the gunpowder barrel in a panic, but found that the gunpowder had been soaked by the water poured by the sea people who had deliberately created chaos before, and could not be lit at all!
In desperation, looking at the bloody mouths that were getting closer and closer, and then looking at the pirates and fishermen who were ferocious but at least only coming with ropes, even a fool would know what to choose.
If you are kidnapped, at most you will suffer some physical pain, and you may even survive.
If you get bitten by a shark, you'll be dead!
Therefore, these officers and soldiers who usually showed off their might could only let themselves be tied up tightly one by one by the pirates and fishermen in frustration and fear. They did not even dare to struggle too hard, for fear of falling into the sea and becoming fish food.
When the sharks saw that the people they wanted to scare were controlled, they seemed to have accomplished their mission.
They were even quite clever enough to use their heads to push up a few big fat fish, and then flung them onto the deck where Jinchen was, and then they happily swung their tails, quickly dived into the deep water, and disappeared.
[Good fish! Good fish!] Ling Gungun exclaimed in admiration as he looked at the buffet food that had jumped up.
All of a sudden.
All the officers and soldiers and some fishermen who witnessed this strange scene for the first time looked at Jinchen as if he were no longer an ordinary person.
Isn’t this a monster!
Bu Changji was extremely happy. He threw himself into Jinchen's arms, stood on tiptoe and gave him a loud kiss on the face. His eyes were surprisingly bright and his tone was full of pride.
"You're amazing! We're truly a match made in heaven!"
Jinchen was amused and reached out to pinch his earlobe, which was red with excitement. "We haven't even finished cleaning up here yet, aren't you nervous at all?"
"I'm not nervous," Bu Changji shook his head and buried his face in his arms. "With you by my side, what's the point of being nervous? I don't know."
There's really nothing to be nervous about.
The main battlefield here was a great victory, and on the other side, the fishing boats carrying officials and leaders had long been taken over by pirates, who tied up those pampered adults tightly.
These people usually act arrogantly, but they are afraid that these lawless pirates will stab them if they disagree with them.
All the prisoners were taken back to Bailangao.
Hai Shisan received Bu Changji's order and excitedly climbed up the highest reef, shouting at the top of his lungs.
"Come and get the silver with the heads you capture. Three taels for each head you kidnap! No cheating, no crime!"
The officials who were tied up and looked miserable almost vomited blood after hearing this.
Troublemakers! They are a bunch of lawless and troublemakers!
Their hands and feet were tied, their pants were taken off, and they were thrown into the waist-deep shallow sea for a walk. The pirates followed Jinchen's advice and got a group of small fish that specialized in biting people's buttocks from somewhere, and chased them to bite them.
The soldiers cried out in pain and looked extremely ugly.
The fishermen on the shore laughed heartily.
Most of these soldiers were just following orders and were not unforgivable criminals.
Bu Changji didn't intend to make things difficult for them. As long as someone begged for mercy and said they would never dare to attack again, he would untie them and let them go.
Only the officials were not so lucky.
The little fish bit him and he cried for his parents. His butt was burning with pain and he felt humiliated.
Finally, these officials who had received special attention were brought back to the Stone Building.
When Fang Yunyao and Yue Ling appeared, Lord Liu was shocked and angry, and scolded them both.
"...You actually colluded with pirates! The imperial court will not let you go!"
Yue Ling took a step forward and stepped on Lord Liu's back with his boots neither lightly nor heavily. Looking at his embarrassed look, he suddenly felt that although Jin Chen's idea was a bit dishonest, it was really effective.
He curled the corners of his lips, his tone cold.
"Lord Liu, your words are wrong. It is clear that you gentlemen were blinded by greed and coveted the treasure hidden by Prince Jing. Due to the uneven distribution of the spoils, you started a internal conflict and killed each other, which led to the unfortunate annihilation of your entire army."
"The prince and I happened to meet at the right time, and we risked our lives to save a few people. Unfortunately... we still couldn't save everyone."
"The prince and I will report this matter in detail to His Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Lord Liu and other officials looked at each other and felt disappointed.
They did receive the secret order from Prince Jing and also intended to gain benefits from it.
But no one expected that Yue Ling would convict them in this way!
This is simply... dead without any evidence, and still being blamed. They're probably going to have no chance of returning...
