Chapter 291 Fear
Ping Shizhang saw the panic on the ship and said in a deep voice: Anyone who dares to yell like this will be dealt with according to military regulations.
The lieutenant behind him responded and immediately called everyone on board to stop.
Check it for me.
Not only two people died, but as long as they stabilized, those people could be captured.
There was a rumble of thunder in the distance, and lightning flashed across the sky, like a giant dragon baring its teeth and claws.
All the soldiers on the ship gathered together and stood there neatly. The lieutenant-general began to direct the formation, and then counted the men. Maybe it was just those people who were dazzled. What was floating on the sea was not corpses.
We are short of people. The lieutenant called several times before replying. Sir, we are short of eight people. We have already searched all over the ship.
Eight people are missing but we only know now.
Could it be that it was taken away by the dragon?
Taking people away quietly like this doesn't look like something done by an enemy army, but more like a divine dragon.
The White Dragon King once made a boatload of people disappear without a trace.
The deputy general whispered: Otherwise, go ask the White Dragon King.
In order to ensure the safety of the White Dragon King, they arranged five lucky boats. The White Dragon King would change boats every day. Only a few people knew where the White Dragon King was at this time.
If there was no urgent matter, he would not go to the White Dragon King rashly. After thinking about it, Ping Shizhang turned to the deputy general and asked someone to patrol around.
As soon as Ping Shizhang finished speaking, he heard shouts from a boat not far away.
Not far away, they could also see someone falling from the boat into the sea.
I vaguely saw some people in black clothes walking through the darkness. These people moved very quickly, swallowing the boat like a tide, and then quickly retreated. By the time everyone reacted, everything was over.
Who are those people?
Surrounded by their ships, how dare these people break in like this? Ping Shizhang was staring at those people before he could recover. The thick rope tied with the flag above his head broke with a snap, followed by Ping's flag.
Falling instantly.
Here they are. Someone shouted, and everyone on their boat was on alert.
Hurry, be alert and find those people. The deputy general gave the order, and everyone on the ship immediately took out the Japanese swords in their hands and divided into several teams to search the big ship.
Similar situations were found on several ships, as if they were invaded at the same time.
No matter how many people came, Ping Shizhang couldn't hold back. He stood on the bow of the ship and stared at the situation of all the ships around him.
The deputy general and his men immediately went to the ship to look for traces of the men in black. However, even though they searched very carefully, they could not find any trace of the men in black.
It was as if those people disappeared out of thin air.
Are there really ghost-like people in this world?
The deputy general lowered his head in consideration. Under his feet was the rope that tied the Ping family flag just now. The deputy general squatted down and picked up the rope and put it in front of his eyes to examine it.
More than half of the rope was cut flat, and it could be seen that it had been cut with a sharp weapon, but there was still a small section that was broken irregularly. The deputy general immediately understood that this was a scam.
When the flag fell, those men in black were not on the boat at all.
The man in black cut the rope in advance, but did not cut it completely, so as to ensure that the flag hung there. As the flag kept swinging, the rope finally couldn't bear the weight and collapsed completely, and the flag collapsed.
As it falls down.
be cheated.
Those people were not here at all just now, they were busy in vain.
The deputy general was filled with resentment. Although he didn't know who those people were, they were too cunning.
There was another thunder in the sky, and then big raindrops fell, and the waves became more turbulent. The deputy general turned his head to look at the sea. In such weather, the lights on the ship could not illuminate the situation on the sea at all. Those people could not illuminate the sea at all.
It's impossible to stay in the sea water all the time. Where are they?
The lieutenant general was in a daze, but for some reason he felt a little bit of coolness on his neck. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, but his fingertips touched something cold.
What was pressed against his neck was a sharp weapon.
The deputy general's eyes widened, and he moved his lips to shout, but at this moment, the sharp weapon was sent forward, and warm blood immediately spurted out from his throat, flowed over his body, and poured into his mouth and nose.
He couldn't breathe, and he collapsed on the deck. At the last moment, he tried to struggle to see who killed him, but wherever he looked, he could only see a black shadow, and the person melted into the darkness.
among.
Come on, the general has been attacked.
A piercing scream sounded.
Ping Shizhang and others hurried to the place where the sound came from, only to see the deputy general who had followed him through life and death lying in a pool of blood. The deputy general's body was still twitching weakly, but soon turned into a corpse.
The heavy rain is about to fall, and everything is pitch black. The rising water vapor is floating around like a mist, making it difficult to see anything clearly.
Cunning enemies take advantage of this to launch sneak attacks.
Veins burst out on Ping Shizhang's forehead. They have been completely controlled by those people. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the open. If this continues, the losses will only increase.
Moreover, the purpose of these people was already obvious. They touched several large ships as if they were looking for something.
Ping Shizhang hurriedly ordered: Hurry, send more manpower to protect the White Dragon King.
Their most important thing now is to protect the White Dragon King.
After dawn tomorrow, those people will no longer be able to rely on the weather and darkness to hide their whereabouts. Then he will catch them all and chop them all into pieces.
The White Dragon King in the cabin already knew that something was going on outside. His expression was very indifferent and he didn't take it seriously.
He is the son of the Dragon King, and his status is extremely noble. Those outside are his followers and will protect him wholeheartedly.
The guard reported: It was a sneak attack by the enemy, but the number was small. Don't worry, nothing will happen.
When the White Dragon King heard this, his slightly frowning brows completely relaxed.
The guard continued: It's getting late. You should rest early. We are all here and there will be no danger.
The White Dragon King was being served by someone lying on the couch. The surroundings became quiet, and the noise outside was drowned in the sound of rolling waves. The sea was not very stable tonight, but fortunately the ship was big enough, and he was used to the feeling of drifting on the sea.
Such normalcy does not make him feel uncomfortable.
He had not slept well for several nights, because they had already started a war with Dazhou. The outcome of this battle was crucial. Even though they had made arrangements early, it was the Marquis of Anyi of Dazhou who came to fight, but everything was more complicated than before.
It went even better than he expected.
Ping Shizhang was filled with joy and thanked him several times. He was the one who saved the Ping clan, and the Ping clan would only look up to him in the future. Not only that, when they returned to Japan in the future, many wealthy families would also come to seek refuge.
The White Dragon King blinked. Everything seemed to be a dream, so unreal. He seemed to have not adapted to it until now. He was originally a little pirate, but in the blink of an eye he became the son of the Dragon King. Everyone supported him so much.
It gave him the illusion that he should be like this.
