By the time they finished eating and were close to Shen Shi, they could save dinner.

They planned to wait here until the end of Youshi. It would be dark by then, and it would be useless to stay here too late.

At Youshi, the sea began to ebb, and many children and old people came to the beach not far away to go to the sea.

No one comes to the pier. There is a stone platform on the beach for easy boarding. When the tide goes out, the water is still right next to the platform.

Jiayin knew that the people who went to sea had returned safely, so he quietly told a few people on his side.

So a few people felt relieved and ran to the beach to learn how to rush to the sea to pick up seafood.

Not only did Jiayin and the other three little girls pick it up with great interest, but even Fang Zhigang and Fang Zhixin burst out laughing in surprise when they picked up the big one.

The children in the village couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering when they saw their unexperienced appearance.

They didn't bring wooden barrels over. They picked up a few and couldn't hold them in their hands, so they sent them back to the villagers at the dock. They enjoyed the process of picking up and were not very interested in these small fish and shrimps.

When the sun was about to disappear under the sea level at the middle of the day, a man with good eyesight pointed at the sea and shouted: "Back! Back!"

"Huh? Why are there so many ships? I'm afraid there are more than a dozen!" the man said doubtfully.

"It's not like pirates are coming, is it?"

"Are you stupid? Pirates only thrive at sea, how could they come to land? Aren't they just throwing themselves into a trap?"

"Maybe they are rescuing some people from other villages. Those boats look like the same fishing boats as ours. The two boats at the back seem to be bigger, but they are blocked and can't be seen clearly..."

"No matter what, you go back and call for help. It's best to come with weapons just in case, and have people hide them. If something goes wrong, go to Wuling City and find the guards for help..." Village Chief Feng arranged

road.

Everyone responded one after another and went back to the village to call for help.

Jiayin and others knew that it was Fang Zhiyuan and the others who were back, but they also knew that even if they told the other party, they might not believe it, so they simply let them prepare.

In fact, this is fine. In this way, it is better for them to maintain a defensive mind at all times than to be careless and suffer a loss.

This attitude is correct. It is better to be cautious in everything. You have anticipated nip in the bud, and you will suffer less losses in the future.

Although the ship can be seen from a distance, it is actually not close. After all, there is no obstruction on the sea, so it is still far away.

It was like running to death while looking up the mountain, not to mention that when I first saw the ship, it was actually just a few larger black dots. Later, when I got a little closer, I saw that it was a ship.

After a while, I saw the general shape and knew it was the fishing boat on my side.

After that, the light became darker and darker, which was actually not conducive to sailing. Moreover, the wind direction was not favorable, and it was the time of low tide, so the sea water returned and the speed slowed down even more.

By the time the boat arrived at the port, it was already nearly an hour later.

Fang Zhiyuan and the others couldn't see that there were any villagers waiting for them at all. It was only after Jiayin asked Qingzhu to transmit the message to them that they realized that there were many villagers waiting for them here.

And because there were so many ships, the villagers were worried that pirates were coming, and they were all on guard.

When they got closer and within sight, Village Chief Yu picked up the homemade flag on the boat and began to hold it high and wave it regularly.

After seeing it, the villagers on the bank were relieved. It was really people from their own village who came back in a fishing boat.

The previously tense atmosphere immediately calmed down, and everyone changed from worry to one of expectation.

With so many ships, everyone must have been rescued. They also thought of what Fang Zhixin said before, maybe even the pirates were captured together!

If that's the case, it would be a great achievement to hand it over to the Yamen when the time comes!

The village will definitely be rewarded, and even if there is no silver reward, it will be a good thing for the village.

With the reputation of capturing pirates, he will be looked down upon when he goes out in the future.

They are people who have caught pirates, and I believe they will become famous in the future. As long as God doesn't find trouble when they go to sea in the future, and there are some violent storms and natural disasters from time to time, at least man-made disasters can be completely avoided.

When Fang Zhiyuan and others from Mitsui Village got off the boat, everyone discovered why there were so many boats.

In addition to the boats brought back from Turtle Island, two fishing boats from the two neighboring villages also came back together.

On their way back, when they passed the place where they had been fishing, Qingzhu sent a message to the village chief that there were two fishing boats hanging around the reef island.

Only then did the village chief remember that the neighboring village had set off earlier than them, and it should be the fishing boat from the neighboring village.

He quickly ordered the fishing boat from his own village to go over and notify them, mainly because he was afraid that other boats would go by and scare them.

The three villages are next to each other, and they are still very familiar with the signs on each other's fishing boats.

Sure enough, when they arrived, when the other party saw them, the two fishing boats took the initiative to approach.

When he heard that his villagers had been rescued and the pirates had been captured, he didn't even bother to ask about the specific situation and just went back with them.

If we delay any longer, it will get dark. Once dark, it will be difficult to find the direction on the return trip. I am afraid we will have to wait until the next day.

When the boats docked, the villagers got on the boats to help, lifting off the pirates who were tied up and unconscious and unable to move, and also helped support those from other villages who were weak.

When everyone got ashore, the villagers of Sanjing Village who followed to rescue people had already praised Fang Zhiyuan and the brothers again and again, and also told everyone about the Dragon God's messenger.

The Dragon God Messenger that came out of their mouths was much more magical than what Fang Zhiyuan told.

I almost directly said that Qingzhu was the sea god of this sea area. Otherwise, how could he be so clear about what happened in this sea area?

I almost believed Fang Zhiyuan when he said that the green bamboo in his sleeves almost showed its prototype to show everyone its heroic appearance...

Fortunately, Qingzhu's rationality is still there and he has not exposed his true nature. Otherwise, he might actually be supported by these villagers in the future.

Even then, Qingzhu will still have the power of faith, but it will leave this world with Jiayin. Jiayin has long told Qingzhu that this is its opportunity, and it should not be penny wise and pound foolish.

Besides, when it is offered as an offering and it works, everyone sincerely believes in it, so that it has the power of faith. If it leaves this place, no matter how many times people pray for it, it will not be efficacious.

Finally, I said that if you have to, but you won’t have the power of faith, and you will be scolded as a deceitful person, you should not do these things.

It happened that all the villagers were there, and those who were rescued were too weak, so they were brought back to the village to stay overnight.

After all, they are all victims. If they go to Wuling City just after getting off the ship, their bodies may not be able to bear it.

Those who had regained their strength followed and escorted the pirates to Wuling City to hand them over to the officials.

Of course Fang Zhiyuan and the other four are going too, because they are afraid that these pirates will do something wrong again, especially the four who are more powerful in martial arts. What if they break free from the ropes and get violent and hurt someone?

So let’s go along.

Fortunately, they had rested on the boat for a few hours before. After all, they couldn't sail the boat, so they rested in the cabin.

Especially since I drank the spiritual water when I went there before, I am not tired at all now. There is no problem in going to Wuling City.

But just walking like this is not possible. Some of them are still unconscious, and those who are awake have their hands and feet tied up and cannot walk.

Even if you untie the rope from the pirate's leg, there is nothing you can do if the other party doesn't cooperate. They can't just carry the pirate away, right?

After all, it's an hour's journey, which will be exhausting.

After some discussion, Jiayin and the others donated the donkey carts and horse-drawn carriages, plus a few ox carts from the three villages.

The empty cart is also hung behind the ox cart, which is like a trailer, with one ox pulling two carts.

There is no need to pay attention to anything now. Anyway, throw all the sturdy pirates who were unconscious and tied up into the car and go directly to Wuling City.

Yang Huiyun looked at the four people leaving, then looked at the boats on the beach, and asked Jiayin and Liu Yu'er doubtfully.

"Didn't you say that there was a back-up person who went with them? Why didn't they get off the boat? Could it be that they were in the sea?"

Hearing Yang Huiyun ask this, Jiayin pointed at the backs of Fang Zhiyuan and the others and said, "No, they are at Brother Zhiyuan's place. They went to Wuling City together."

Yang Huiyun looked confused. Where is Fang Zhiyuan? Will the other party become invisible?

In Yang Huiyun's imagination, it should be a behemoth like Pangpang, or even bigger than Pangpang. Otherwise, how could he help save so many people.

I didn't expect that the other party could become bigger or smaller. Now it was a mini snake less than a foot long, coiled in Fang Zhiyuan's sleeve pocket.

Liu Yu'er knew about the existence of Qingzhu, but she didn't know how big the Qingzhu was. She only thought that it all depended on Lord Dragon God.

Jiayin basically doesn't let Qingzhu appear in front of people now. Qingzhu's appearance is too strange, not like Chubby and Nao Nao, he still has the same appearance, even if he is bigger, there is nothing strange.

However, Qingzhu has long since transformed, and is completely different from its original form. Its two horns have begun to branch, and it looks like it is not a normal snake at first glance.

If it weren't for the green bamboo's ability to shrink its body, if it were revealed in its true form, people would know it is a dragon at a glance.

It is even identical to the dragon-shaped symbol used by the royal family.

The royal dragon is the image of a snake with a body, horns on its head, and five claws.

Jiayin even doubted whether the royal family had seen a dragon before, so they determined that it looked like a dragon.

What she didn't know was that since the third prince saw the appearance of the Dragon Temple, he had become indifferent to the symbols on his father's dragon robe and flag, and felt that they were really incomparable.

The three princes all wanted to embroider the image of the Dragon God on their dragon robes and carve it on the dragon chair after ascending the throne, but they were afraid of offending the Dragon God, so they could only continue to use patterns that they no longer liked.

I thought about going to the Dragon Temple later and asking the Dragon God for permission to see if I could use his image.

Continue back to Jiayin's side. Since everyone has left, the remaining people returned to the village.

Except for those who went to sea, the village chiefs of the three villages also went to Wuling City, and the rest stayed in the village to look after their homes.

When Jiayin and the others returned to the Yu family, they saw that the women of the Yu family were cooking. Obviously they were not cooking dinner at this time, but they were probably cooking for the village chief Yu and the others to eat when they returned.

Jiayin and the others also stepped forward to help, and Fang Zhiyuan and others also wanted to eat when they came back.

This time they did not go out to get any more food. First of all, they helped the villagers rescue the people, so it was okay to feed them a meal.

Second, when their donkey carts and carriages were just vacated, they moved all the things out, and the Yu family also saw it. Apparently there was no food, and they had all been used for cooking yesterday.
