Fortunately, Li Shi happened to hug a broken wooden board before he exhausted his strength, and was swept back to the vicinity of the ship by the waves.
The Goguryeo people on the ship may have felt that they needed Li Shi to go back with them in order to explain why Damoda and others were wiped out, so they let go of the rope ladder and pulled him up.
"Big Moda is gone, what should we do? Otherwise, let's leave quickly. If the Tang Dynasty catches up with us, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage if we are the only ones here?"
On the big ship in the middle, several Goguryeo sailors were still lying on the deck despite Li Shi, who kept spitting out sea water and only hesitated to communicate with each other in Goguryeo dialect.
After a few of them talked for a long time, an older man who stood by the side without saying a word shook his head and said: "In my opinion, I'm afraid it's impossible to go back now! We don't know anything now. With just a few gestures, this Tang man threw away the big Moda and they went back alone, I'm afraid they will be punished by the general!"
"Then...how do we know?"
Several Goguryeo people who had just rushed back, after hearing the words "will be punished by the general", their faces all turned pale, and they all looked at the older sailor.
It was obvious that this so-called general was a rather feared character in their hearts!
"It's best to send someone ashore to take a look!" As the older sailor spoke, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Li Shi on the deck.
But seeing how weak he looked, the old sailor had no choice but to shake his head. With Li Shi's appearance, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have the energy to swim to the shore. Don't even think about asking him to return to the shore!
"Go ashore and take a look?"
None of the other Goguryeo people noticed the difference in the old sailor's eyes! They only heard him say that he wanted to go to the shore? Their faces changed, they looked at each other, and then lowered their heads in unison, as if they were afraid of being selected. He killed the unlucky guy who came ashore.
That’s right, the Goguryeo people were united and fierce!
However, these two attributes will only be triggered when there is no way to retreat.
Just like a trapped animal that is cornered, it will ignore it and fight to the death!
The common Goguryeo people are selfish and arrogant, which are their business cards! This kind of immoral thing of sending you to death and letting me get rich is the character of this nation.
The old sailor noticed the behavior of the Goguryeo people around him, but felt helpless in his heart.
Among their ships, the one with the highest status is Da Moda!
The remaining two captains are also among Da Moda's entourage!
Most of the people who can stay on the ship at this moment are people who are not favored by Da Moda!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been left on the boat to look after the house when it was time to go ashore to grab things.
With such a group of people, it is just a dream to want them to enforce orders and prohibitions!
Although they seem to be listening to me at this time, it's just that these people can't find a backbone. Seeing that they are old, they are accustomed to relying on them.
If he wanted to order them to go ashore, he would probably be pushed back on the spot.
"How about! Just wait!" Gritting his teeth, the old sailor glanced at the shore and said bitterly: "Wait until dark. We are at sea. Even if an enemy chases us to the beach, there is nothing we can do but wait!"
"good……"
"This is a good idea!"
"Let's just raise the anchor. If anything goes wrong, we'll take advantage of the wind and leave!"
Sure enough, when other Goguryeo people heard that they didn’t have to go to the shore to investigate the situation, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and responded one after another!
It's almost dusk!
Today's tide was quite strong. The waves, which were almost half a man's height, hit the rocks on the shore one after another, and then were smashed into pieces by the solid rocks and splashed into the air.
"Someone! Someone!"
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, a thin Goguryeo man who was watching at the bow of the boat let out a low voice, which immediately attracted everyone else on the boat.
"who?"
"Is he one of us?"
When the old sailor heard the noise, he was also excited. He hurriedly hunched over and trotted to the bow of the ship, then leaned on the railing and looked out.
They don't have Xiao Han's telescope in their hands! So they can only squint their eyes to see further.
But even so, they could only barely see a few ant-like black spots on the shore.
"It's from Tang Dynasty!"
Seeing people gathered around, the Goguryeo man who exclaimed at first shook his head in frustration and said: "They also carry swords and guns with them. It seems that they are soldiers of the Tang Dynasty..."
"What?! Tang soldiers?"
When the other Goguryeo people lying on the railing heard this, they immediately took a breath of cold air.
It's not that they don't believe this person's words.
In fact, due to the navigation needs of large ships, several people who can see very far away are usually recruited on board to serve as lookouts, so that dangers such as collisions and rocks can be detected in advance.
The thin and short man who spoke before was born with good eyesight. It is said that his eyesight is five times that of ordinary people. He can easily see birds hundreds of feet away. With his eyesight, he will never be wrong. !
But the question is, if he read it correctly, how could there be soldiers here?
It's not like they haven't been around here before, and through transactions with the Tang Dynasty, they learned that this is just a small county jurisdiction!
In such a place, it would be great to have three or five government officials and a dozen soldiers!
How could these people dare to go out of the city and spy on them when they knew that foreign enemies were invading? Isn't this crazy?
"It's over! What that person said is indeed right! Now that Tang Zou has come first, Damoda and the others look to be in danger!"
Turning his back, the old sailor murmured to himself, then suddenly remembered something, turned his head sharply and asked another sailor: "Where is the Tang man on the ship? He is not dead, right?"
"No, not dead!"
The sailor was startled by the old sailor's actions. When he reacted, he quickly shook his head and said: "He has been thrown into the cabin now, but for some reason, this guy has vomited and had diarrhea, making the cabin a mess! Now he is so smoked No one can get in!"
"As long as he's not dead!" The old sailor breathed a sigh of relief and snorted coldly: "Go and see him later, don't let him die!"
"Ah? But that room is full of..." The sailor had some hesitation on his face.
"Shut up!" the old sailor shouted subconsciously!
But when he saw the astonishment on the sailor's face, he realized what he was doing. He could only slow down his tone and said: "Isn't it just a little filth? People from the Tang Dynasty! Barbarians! It's normal to be dirty! You don't need to worry about him. We can only treat him now." Only by bringing him back alive can all the responsibility be put on him!"
After that, the old sailor looked at the shore unwillingly: "This time I went out in circles, but I didn't catch anything good, and I lost so many lives, even Big Moda also lost it! All this , I blame those Tang people for deceiving us with their sweet words!"
"Yes, yes!" The sailor who had just been scolded nodded in agreement: "It's all those Tang people's fault. If they hadn't said that the war had just ended and everything was so empty, we wouldn't have come here! We suffered such a big loss. !”
