More than thirty pirate ships came and surrounded the ship from all directions.
Mu Yan ordered his men to rush over, but unexpectedly the other party threw fireballs at them as a warning. The ship was forced to stop.
No matter how big a boat is, even if it has iron edging, it is still a wooden boat. How can it not be afraid of fire?
"Xi'er, go to the cabin!"
Huo Xi glanced at Mu Yan but did not move.
Mu Yan frowned and looked at her, thinking about whether to drag her into the cabin by force.
"It's okay. With the way I'm dressed, couldn't you just tell that I'm a girl? Don't worry, Tayue will follow me."
While the two were talking, several pirates had climbed onto the deck via the ladder.
All of them are short in stature and have lively eyes. They all look like naughty men. They are probably good at both the water and the sea.
After getting on the deck, he looked at it with a stern look, then asked where the goods were and asked Mu Yan and others to take them to see the goods.
This was not a ship loaded with cargo. At first glance, Mu Yan and the others were afraid that the few boxes used as decorations would not be able to hide it from them.
"Whatever road you are from, you deserve to see our goods!" Huo Xi looked arrogant.
Mu Yan was startled when she suddenly made a sound.
Several pirates had already gathered around her, looking her up and down, with such wanton looks that made Mu Yan feel angry.
"A bunch of losers, my master spent so much money to hire you as guards to guard the goods, but you actually let outsiders board the ship!"
Huo Xi expressed dissatisfaction towards Mu Yan, "Why don't you throw them overboard for me? Don't dirty my land!"
"Oh, you're already a fish on the chopping board, and you still want to give orders!" A pirate came up with a smile on his face, and raised his hand to touch Huo Xi's face. The pretty boy whispered, "You are dressed as a woman, right?
?”
Mu Yan clenched his fist tightly, wishing he could punch him in the head.
Several pirates laughed.
Huo Xi took a step back, "Shut up! I think you are the women!"
When it comes to traveling on the sea, not to mention long-distance voyages, but even short-distance traveling with ships, there are no women who follow merchant ships. Firstly, women cannot bear it, and secondly, they are afraid of being unlucky.
Huo Xi asked him to shut up because he wanted to say that the other party was insulting.
Sure enough, the pirates thought her voice was shrill, but how could such a large merchant ship hide a woman on board to capsize the ship? No more business?
"What kind of goods did your master transport, and where were they shipped to?" He had no intention of questioning Huo Xi again about the goods.
"Why should I tell you!"
Huo Xi pretended to be disdainful.
She is the only person on this ship who dresses like a businessman and a master in charge. And if the other party asks her about goods and trade, she is the best candidate.
She gave Mu Yan a look to comfort him. Mu Yan didn't dare to relax and stared at her closely, fearing that she would make the slightest mistake.
A few pirates exchanged a few words and threatened for a long time before Huo Xi was so frightened that he finally said that this was a ship carrying silk, tea, porcelain and other precious things to Japan and Korea.
Precious things?
When the pirates heard this, they were overjoyed. Sure enough, those who set out from Guochao were all transporting valuable things. How much would it have to carry on such a big ship?
Got rich! I was so happy that I rubbed my hands together.
They hurriedly ordered the ship's boss to follow their instructions.
The captain of the ship and others had all been greeted by Mu Yan, and they were all eager to give it a try when they heard that the imperial general wanted to use them to help suppress the pirates.
They were all running boats, and they were also deeply persecuted by pirates. They wished they could punish these lawless people on the spot. Being able to follow the little general to do big things, they were all gearing up.
Seeing that the matter was settled, the pirates were no longer in a hurry to see the goods. Anyway, they had the ship in hand. When they arrived at their island, they still worried that they had no time to see the goods? So they ate and drank on the deck and drank some wine.
Soon the ship followed the instructions and arrived at the pirates' base camp.
A not too small island appeared in front of me.
The ship stopped not far from the shore. Such a large ship could not dock, so small boats had to be used to connect people and goods.
Soon there was a sound of sea gongs, and dozens of small boats came from all directions on the island, with pointed bows and fast speeds.
In addition to the thirty-odd ships that have been following them at a short distance, the number is almost hundreds.
Huo Xi was a little worried: "With so many ships, I'm afraid there are also a lot of thieves. Can you really handle it? And there is no cargo on our ship. What if they find out that they have been deceived?"
When the firefight breaks out, I'm afraid we will also suffer casualties.
Mu Yan narrowed his eyes dangerously, quietly looking for the figure of the thief leader.
He replied: "Don't worry, they are just a bunch of filthy people. They just have the audacity to rob such a large merchant ship because they have a large number of people and a large number of ships. They also have some close-range weapons. They will not be able to come in once."
Come back! I'll outwit you soon, and I'm going to capture the thief first and capture the king first."
"Then be careful."
"You will follow closely to the moon in a moment."
At this moment, Mu Yan no longer planned to let her hide in the cabin. If he made a mistake and something happened to her, it would be too late for him to regret it, so he had better put the person under his nose and rest assured.
"good."
After hijacking such a large merchant ship, pirates from the entire island came out to watch the fun, and even the thieves came out in big ships.
Standing on the bow and looking at such a giant ship sailing on a long voyage, I felt so proud that I couldn't hold back the smile on my face.
"Well done, brothers! Once the cargo is unloaded, you will be rewarded!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shanhuhai shouted.
Is he still a king?
Huo Xi couldn't help but was speechless, but Mu Yan just curled his lips in disdain, "When I catch you in the capital, I will give you a big reward."
"They're coming up!"
Huo Xi was a little nervous. Nearly a hundred boats had arrived, and so many boats were waiting to carry things. How could there be any goods for them to carry? Looking at Mu Yan again, he was calm and composed, only staring at the thief's head, and saw him and
Li Yi muttered.
Li Yi walked to the side of the ship, grabbed the ladder with both hands, and with a little force, shook the pirates who were climbing up the ladder and shook them into the sea.
Then he put one or two hands to his mouth and shouted like a trumpet: "My steward said, you can ask for goods, and the ship can be given to you, but we must let us leave safely. If not, we will set fire to the ship and let you have nothing."
Can’t get it!”
Kan Er then lit a torch and held it high. Qian Sankun and others also tied up the pirates who had boarded the ship earlier and pushed them to the side of the ship.
The pirate leader Song Zhen saw that the people on the ship were quite ambitious and wanted to set fire to the ship, which was a big deal.
Seeing such a big ship right in front of him, how much cargo must be carried on it? If he gets this business, he can live a good life for many years.
How can we let the duck with its mouth fly away?
Ask someone to call out immediately. If you have anything to discuss, don't set fire to it.
Mu Yan asked the pirates to give them twenty ships and let them leave. Song Zhen agreed.
Mu Yan looked at each other, and first asked people to put a few pirates down, then took a deep look at Huo Xi, and then started to disembark with Li Yikaner and more than ten people.
