Chapter 319 Entering Hammer Island
[Today's two chapters are combined.]
However, it was said that after the scouts floated on the water and bribed the four-dollar silver coins of the uni-eyed dragon pirates, the one-eyed dragon also made it convenient for him and took the two scouts to Hammer Island.
Nowadays, it is hot in summer, but on this hammer island, the sea breeze is blowing, which is cool and comfortable.
The rising sun is rising, and the Asahi on the coastline is cut in half, which is the size of a grinding disc and like a pancake. Half of it has risen to the sea, and one side seems to be invading the sea.
What a picture of the rising sun.
If you are a famous painter, you will be ecstatic when you see such a scene. You will pick up the brush and draw it, draw Shen Yun and draw the appearance. Maybe it can spread from generation to generation and become a generation of masters.
But now there are four pirates and two scouts watching the sunrise here. In addition to being able to sigh, they can't say a word of beauty. I can't help but feel a little bad.
When he first arrived at Hammer Island, Zhang Yu saw three short crossbow arrows coming out of the jungle with a green headscarf tied to it. His upper body was exposed, and his lower body was only wearing a pair of worn green trousers with rolled up trouser legs. Dressing like this, you can hide it when you get into the grass.
Zhang Yu felt so and couldn't help but be a little surprised. He sighed in his heart, "This pirate can still hide. If we suddenly attack, we don't know the situation here, won't it be a heavy death and injury? It seems that this time, I will definitely report it to the general and let them prepare in advance to prevent them from falling into their trap. He knew that he was a scout and had a lot of experience, but he didn't find the hidden people in the jungle, which showed the skill of these pirates. And the most important thing is that Zhang Yu doesn't know how many pirates with short crossbows are hidden in the jungle around here.
Thinking about Zhang Yu, he felt a cold sweat all over his body. When the sea breeze blew, he only felt a burst of cold.
Seeing that the person who came was the one-eyed dragon and others, one of the big men with a big beard, smiled and shouted, "Haha, why did the one-eyed dragon come back?" It's not that I just went out for a long time. Do you miss your mother-in-law? Hahaha," the big man said, and several people next to him also laughed. Everyone knew that the one-eyed dragon did not have a mother-in-law. What could he think?
However, the one-eyed dragon was not angry. He cracked his mouth and showed his golden teeth. He smiled and said, "Let your mother-in-law wash your beard and wait for you. I have a lot of sexual desire today!"
"Your grandma's. I won't joke with you. Tell me what you're doing when you come back. Well, who are the two men behind you? The bearded returned to the evaluation and pointed to the two of them and said to the one-eyed dragon.
The one-eyed dragon said, "I was about to say that I and several brothers went out to patrol the sea just now. When I found these two brothers, I knew that the two brothers came from the west road and said that they wanted to meet our big boss, and there was a letter for the big boss to read. When I saw it, there was a saying: I'm a guest. So I brought them over to see the big boss.
Before the one-eyed dragon finished speaking, the big bearded angrily scolded, "Your grandma, who are you giving it to?"
The one-eyed dragon smiled and said, "I'm not you. Look at my eyes to save you. The child is disobedient when he grows up." Looking at the one-eyed dragon taught him, the bearded muffled and stopped talking. Speaking of which, the one-eyed dragon became the one-eyed dragon because of this beard.
In those years, they fought with a Japanese bandit nearby and ate black. In that battle, the one-eyed dragon saved the beard's life, but he was blind.
"Suck, go in quickly. I guess it's time for the big man to eat this time. If it's too late, you won't see it." The bearded man obviously didn't want to talk to the one-eyed dragon anymore, so he hurriedly urged.
From beginning to end, the two of them didn't say anything. I've always been behind that one-eyed dragon.
When the one-eyed dragon and others left, the bearded three re-entered the grass and hid. When Zhang Yu was about to leave, he glanced back and was surprised to find that he could not observe their position. This made Zhang Yu feel guilty.
It's like walking through a maze all the way. If you are not familiar with the road, you may not know where to go and get lost. This hammer island is not small and very big, so once you get lost, it is not so easy to get out.
"Go quickly, go quickly." The one-eyed dragon urged.
Zhang Yu smiled and asked, "Big brother, I don't know how long it will take to get there." Now it's been a long way, Zhang Yu asked.
The one-eyed dragon grinned and said, "How can there be so much nonsense? If the big master leaves in a moment. Let's see who your letter is sent.
Zhang Yu took out three silver dollars from his pocket and sent them to the one-eyed dragon's arms, asking, "Do you think the big owner has left? Such a big island, what should I do if the big owner leaves?
The one-eyed dragon got a silver coin and was happy in his heart. Besides, the three people have not followed him now. So he said, "You don't know anything about this. Our hammer island is full of hidden weapons. If we take a wrong step, it will touch the trap. It is not easy to attack our hammer island. Zhang Yu deeply agreed with this sentence. Although he was a scout, he couldn't go out with his scouting skills all the way. This really surprised Zhang Yu.
"Where will the big owner go?"
Zhang Yu asked again.
After all, the one-eyed dragon took other people's things and was soft-handed. What's more, now the whereabouts of the big owner is not a secret, and the one-eyed dragon didn't think much about it, so he said, "Today is a special day. It's the annual meeting day held by our pirates, which is held on Treasure Island a hundred miles away. At that time, thousands of pirates and Japanese pirates from the four sea areas will participate in the division of the sea area after discussion at the venue. Last time, our hammer gang defeated a lot of pirates and received a lot of their territory. So if you look at it now, there are very few pirates except for our hammer gang. Of course, as for those Japanese pirates in Dongying, they are all bastards. Don't follow the rules."
Speaking of the one-eyed dragon, his face was full of anger. Obviously, as a pirate, he also hated the Japanese pirates.
As they walked, the three quickly walked out of the outer jungle. What they saw was the ground paved with gravel and shells. A distance was a willow tree with branches and leaves swaying in the wind, or all kinds of other shrubs that they didn't even know much about.
Then a wooden straw house also began to appear in front of us. The thick straw was laid on the straw house, and some houses were built with bricks, but there were relatively few.
Now it has flown into the sky as soon as possible.
In the scene reflected in Zhang Yu's eyes, all kinds of people began to appear, including men and women, and children who had to get up early and run back and forth from the roadside tree. They wore the red belly pocket, with a pinch of yellow tender hair on their heads, smiling and playing with their bare buttocks.
"This way, the highest room in the center over there is where the big man lives." The one-eyed dragon acted as a tour guide and explained it to Zhang Yu.
Although the one-eyed dragon looks a little scary, he is actually not a bad person. To be honest, there are basically few heinous people who come to this island. Most of them are forced by society or disobey the bullying of the tartars and go to the island.
The people around him are looking at Zhang Wei curiously. They are all family members of these pirates and rarely leave the island, which means that they have not seen strangers for many years. Chinese people are actually the most hospitable. This hammer island is like Tao Yuanming's Taohuayuan.
The man picked up a weapon to protect the island, and then went ashore to rob it. Robbed the landlord and the local tycoon. Sometimes I fish and cast nets, and go home to eat delicious food. These are already very good days, at least in these troubled times.
"The old man got up. It's so early!"
The one-eyed dragon greeted an old man with a white beard with a smile.
"What kind of food does the third aunt cook? I smell the fragrance so far away. You have to give me a taste later.
The one-eyed dragon smiled and said to a middle-aged woman who was feeding chicken cubs with a rough red clay pot.
The woman smiled and said, "It's the big boy. Didn't you go out to patrol? Why did you come back? Who are the two people behind? Why haven't I seen a stranger on this island for a long time? Let them come over and talk about what's going on outside.
The persecution of the tartars made them afraid to go ashore.
Zhang Yu's eyes are a little sour.
"Don't worry, the great King Zheng will let you live a good life!" Zhang Yu muttered in his heart that these simple people, whether they are pirates or civilians, Zhang Yu thinks they are very kind.
After a while, the one-eyed dragon took Zhang Yu to the outside of a well-defended yard. At the door of the yard stood four holding long guns, wearing tattered leather armor and three different styles of silk hats on their heads. One is red, the other is blue, and the last two hats are khaki.
"Hight! What are you doing?" As the personal guards of the big head, these four people are very proud. They are much more noble than ordinary people. Because they are the people with the highest force to serve as the personal defenders of the head of the family, ordinary people can't get in at all. Even if some of them knew the one-eyed dragon, they still questioned it as usual.
"Singing letters?" A man with a thick body raised his head arrogantly, skimmed Zhang Yu and two people. Looking at the regular clothes he was wearing, he was a little envious.
Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Yes, our general has a letter to the master. I hope it's convenient for the brothers."
"Take off your clothes and give it to me." The big man pointed to Zhang Yu's black Pingbei army uniform. Although it was summer, Zhang Yu did not sweat.
When Zhang Yu heard the words, his face suddenly turned cold and said, "This brother, I'm afraid this won't work. The clothes were sent by the prince and must not be lost. The clothes are in the people, and the clothes are embarrassing!"
Although it is not as serious as Zhang Yu said, military uniforms attach great importance to soldiers and generals, which not only means that they are a glorious member of the Pingbei Army, but also means dignity and honor.
Wearing the uniform of the Pingbei Army is a superposition of glory and honor. No one will take off casually under the general's guise unless he dies. Of course, except for the demobilized soldiers.
"Well, if you don't take it off, I won't let you in." The big man stretched out his muscles, and his face was slightly angry, which was very scary. It seemed that he was going to force action against Zhang Yu and the two.
At a glance, the one-eyed dragon next to it knew that things were not going well. Zhang Yu and others may not have seen the power of this big man, but the one-eyed dragon is very clear.
"Don't do it. Don't do it. If you have something to say, just say it." The one-eyed dragon quickly said to the big man with a smile on his face, and then turned to Zhang Yu, "You can take off your clothes and give it to him. It's just a set of clothes. You can buy a lot with a silver dollar."
The one-eyed dragon thought that Zhang Yu would still listen to him, but at this moment, he saw that the one-eyed dragon open the one-eyed dragon in front of him and said coldly, "Unless I die, no one can let me take it off. This is about honor and faith. Honor is above all else. Even in the face of the most powerful enemy, even if you know that you can't defeat the enemy, you must show your sword to the enemy! This is faith, this is honor! You won't understand. Get out of the way, brother. Don't underestimate me. I've been a person who almost entered Yingyangwei for quite a year.
The one-eyed dragon looked at Zhang Yu and suddenly found that it seemed to be very strange. Although he didn't know what Ying Yangwei was, it seemed to be quite powerful.
"Faith? Honor? Show the sword?"
Papa!
I only heard a burst of applause. Hearing the sound, the four pirate guards, together with the one-eyed dragon and Zhang Yu, looked in the direction of speaking one after another.
In his eyes, the speaker was a man in his thirties. He simply tied the sparse hair together, with a beard on his mouth and squinting his small eyes. Although the national character face is not too durable, it is not ugly. And the horizontal meat on the face makes people feel that he is a powerful character at a glance. Unlike other pirates, he is not naked, but wears a thin cyan dress, a pair of khaki trousers with patches, and a pair of straw shoes under his feet. In this weather, he wears open straw shoes, which is just cool.
He is standing at the door of the yard. Zhang Yu and the two don't know who this person is, but I'm afraid it's not a nobody who can stay in the yard. And at this moment, the one-eyed dragon and the four pirate guards bent down and said, "The big head."
"Papa!" Then Li Dachui (the big man) continued to applaud.
said, "That's right, that's right. Are you from the Pingbei Army? I don't know why King Zheng sent you here? Li Dachui thought it was the person sent by Liu Xia, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it. Anyway, Liu Xia is also a famous man and a national hero.
As for faith and honor, Li Dachui is not very interested in it, because he can rarely touch these. I'm afraid that what he believes in most is the Jade Emperor, the Western Buddha.
"What's the difference between trusting Buddha and trusting Liu Xia? There are also some differences. Buddha is an immortal. In heaven, Liu Xia is a human and on the earth.
Zhang Yu said, "I've seen the big owner. My name is Zhang Yu. I come from the White Shark Guard of the North Sea Fleet of the Pingbei Army. Jianghu is known as floating on the water. Ha ha, it makes the big owner laugh. It's better than the big owner's water kung fu. I, Zhang Yu, took the order of General Yu, the commander-in-chief of the navy, and came to the big master. My general asked me to give this letter to the big master. With that, Zhang Yu handed over the letter in his arms to Li Dachui.
Li Dachui looked suspiciously at Zhang Yu and took everyone into the room. The one-eyed dragon was not qualified to enter the house, and only Zhang Yu went forward alone. And the other scout did not go in and stood straight outside.
Li Dachui sat on a wooden chair, which is the best thing on Shanghai Island, which is equivalent to Li Dachui's throne.
Zhang Yu did not sit on the chair next to him, but stood there straight like the scout outside.
As the saying goes, standing like a pine, sitting like a clock, and running like the wind. At this moment, this dragonfly is like a pine and cypress, standing there motionless.
Li Dachui tore open the letter and slowly looked at the contents. Li Dachui has also read books and knows a few words. Although it's not much, it's enough to read some ordinary letters.
However, Li Dachui's originally calm face became more and more ugly as he read the letter, from red to black, from black to purple. Finally, it became iron green.
"P"
In the end, Li Dachui angrily smashed the letter in his hand heavily on the Nanmu table. However, the face did not change at all, and the one-eyed dragon and several other guards outside became nervous. However, Li Dachui didn't let them in, and they didn't dare to go in rashly, but the look of the scout looking outside changed.
"Aren't you afraid?" Li Dachui thought he was angry, and Zhang Yu would be so scared that he would kneel on the ground and beg for forgiveness, but he didn't expect that this Yu was still changing his face, which made him feel a little surprised.
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "Although I don't know what the general wrote in the letter that made the big man angry, Zhang Yu believes that the big man is a hero and will not kill the followers of His Royal Highness the same national hero King Zheng, so Zhang Yu is not afraid."
Li Dachui took out a shiny and sharp dagger from his waist. The knife handle of the dagger was still stained with red and black blood. It could be seen that the dagger killed a lot of people. Li Dachui came to Zhang Yu step by step.
The face showed a horrible color, but no matter how Li Dachui threatened, the face did not change its color, which made Li Dachui a little uncomfortable.
"What if I kill you today?"
Li Dachui gently put the dagger in his hand to the neck, licked his lips, narrowed his eyes, carefully looked at Zhang Yu's expression, and looked at his fear.
Only listen to that picture
