"I am the Major General of this island. From today on, you will be used as slaves and sent to various parts of the island to harvest logs, excavate stones, forge copper and iron, and build cities. Every day during the meal,
Have dinner in the afternoon and enter meditation at dusk. Anyone who dares to light an open fire privately on the island or be passive and sabotage work will be executed..."
In front of the crowd, a young man wearing a sea snake mask and long feathers on his shoulders was standing on a rock curved like an eagle's beak, shouting at the crowd. The people under his feet were all robbed by black ships.
Jiang Yan and Qi Ziyin were among the fishermen and sailors brought to the island after the plunder. Every ten or so steps among the crowd, there was an axe-hand holding a sharp blade. With his hands and feet bound, the prisoners had no way of resisting.
I can stand on this small rocky beach with my head lowered and my shoulders lowered.
Here is Hailing Island, deep in the ocean to the west of Wanzhou. The terrain of the island is high in the north and low in the south. There are many cliffs on both sides, as if the gods had used a giant ax to forcefully carve them out of the Leiyin Mountains on the east coast of the strait.
The ones that are chopped down are normal.
The Tianwu Strait is filled with thick fog all year round, and the cliffs tens of feet high are surrounded by thick clouds. Even sailors who go to sea all year round, few people have truly seen the whole picture of Hailing Island. And the only place on the island that can
The access to the main island is on a slightly lower sub-island at the southern end of the island.
The sub-island is connected to the main island in the north through a land bridge. Although it does not have the insurmountable cliffs of the main island, it is surrounded by countless huge and sharp rocks. These rocks should have been formed by an earthquake thousands of years ago.
The rocks that collapsed from the island are protruding outward in the thick fog, and the large and small, exposed or dark reefs scattered around Hailing Island form a natural barrier, always warning the world that they must not
It's easy to get close to this place.
Since the rise of the Great Emperor, countless ships have run aground on the rocks in the Tianwu Strait every year and become silent. Over time, even the seamen from the nearby Yu and Fu countries did not dare to approach easily when they went fishing in Taohai. Looking at the navigators from various countries,
Only Ye Guo, with his many years of sailing experience, was able to carve out a tortuous waterway in this strait that was large enough for warships to pass through, without having to spend several more months detouring around the west side of Hailing Island. But if there were no circumstances,
If necessary, even the Ye Kingdom army would not easily break into this sea of death, let alone rashly land on the island.
However, no one would have thought that on such a deserted island, which is regarded as a forbidden land, there is actually an army stationed out of nowhere. And this army kidnapped soldiers from all over the island.
The number of Dinnu is so huge that anyone who sees it will be stunned.
"You are a bold pirate, how dare you seize people from the Ye Kingdom Navy as slaves! I am Chen Song, the gatekeeper of Wulan Yingya, why don't you loosen your bonds quickly!"
Suddenly someone in the crowd started shouting, interrupting the speech of the major general on the Eagle Beak Rock. Most of the prisoners were civilians from nearby fishing villages. When I heard that even people from the Ye Guo Zhou Division had been arrested,
When I came to the island, I couldn't help but be in an uproar.
The young major general jumped down from the stone, walked straight through the crowd, and walked up to Chen Song. He looked at him up and down with a pair of playful eyes, but did not say anything more.
"What are you looking at? If you don't want to get into trouble, I advise you to release him as soon as possible and stop being stubborn!"
Chen Song didn't know what the other party was planning, so he just said what he said was just and true. He never thought that the young general in front of him, instead of being scared away, actually raised his hand and gave him a loud slap in the face:
"I just want to see where you got the courage to interrupt me when I'm talking. Even if you're in jail, you can't stop me!"
"With such rampant behavior, aren't you afraid that the nine tribes will be exterminated? When the Ye Kingdom army arrives, don't blame me for not giving you a chance to regret it!"
Chen Song was still roaring, but his momentum was suppressed by the opponent.
The major general just sneered, and suddenly pulled out a bright broad-backed saber from his waist. His sword was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had cut off Chen Song's left ear and pinched it with two fingers.
, raised his voice in front of the opponent’s eyes and shouted:
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I just said? Your Excellency is the one whose hands and feet are tied now, right? I would like to ask, where do you have the qualifications to give me any chance?
!”
Chen Song's shoulders were immediately stained red with blood. However, he was considered a tough guy in the army and did not scream. His bloodless lips were trembling, and he still stared angrily.
"Okay! The people of Ye Guo Zhoushi are indeed strong-willed! But this general has just said that you are here to work on this island, not to enjoy the blessings! No matter what kind of front tooth general you are, even if he is Ye Guo
Gong Qi and Yin were captured here, and if they want to survive, they must obey my orders, do you understand?!"
The Major General smiled, and suddenly he cut off the opponent's right ear with another knife! This time, Chen Song finally couldn't help the pain, and fell to his knees and howled in pain.
"Hey, why can't you hold it back so quickly? Didn't you just say something about killing the nine tribes?!"
The Major General laughed wildly and threw the two bloody ears in his hands into the crowd. After witnessing such a cruel scene, no one among the Din Nu dared to say a word or even make any dodge or avoidance.
, even if those two sticky balls of human flesh hit his head and face, they didn't move at all.
However, this was just the beginning of a torture. After the major general laughed for a while, he pulled out a dagger from his waist. He signaled the two axemen on the left and right to hold Chen Song down, and stabbed the opponent directly in the crotch!
The heart-rending screams overwhelmed the roaring sea wind and the surging waves. The major general cut out Chen Song's lifeblood from his crotch and threw it to the ground, then raised his armored feet,
He trampled it hard into a puddle of flesh.
"The thieves who have killed a thousand swords! You thought you succeeded in attacking Ye Guo's boat division, but you didn't know that the ship that was sunk was carrying a rich man! Now Ye Guo Gong will never let you go! Wait for the army.
If you are killed on the island, you will all die a miserable death, a miserable death!"
Chen Song's spirit completely collapsed at this moment. The veins on his forehead bulged out, and his eyes turned crimson due to congestion. The ropes were deeply embedded in the muscles of his arms, leaving bloody marks.
It was broken apart with a bang!
Before the swordsman could react, the seriously injured General Yamen had slammed into the Major General. At this time, he had already made preparations for death, intending to fight the enemy to the death.
But the young man on the opposite side did not lose his position at all. He was only stunned for a moment, and then nimbly turned sideways to avoid the powerful blow. Then the opponent stretched out his foot and kicked and stumbled, causing the opponent to lose his balance on the spot, and another kick
He stepped heavily on Chen Song's chest, breaking several ribs on the spot.
"Of course I know that Ye State's large-scale military expedition is to attack Peng State. Of course I also know that the rich man you mentioned is the young master of Ye State named Qi Ziyin! Do you think that I
Is it really just a coincidence that I took advantage of the thick fog to lurk in the Tianwu Strait?"
The Major General burst out laughing, then raised his knife and stabbed Chen Song, who was on the ground unable to move at all, through the heart!
"Who...are you? How do you know...so many...secrets..."
Blood gurgled out from between the teeth of the general who was breathing his last breath. He knew that he was not going to die soon, so he just gathered up the last bit of strength in vain and struggled to squeeze out the last words from his throat.
"Didn't you say earlier that we were just a group of ordinary pirates? But what you just said reminded me that it sounds like maybe the young master you are talking about is not only not dead, but is very likely to be hiding in
Among these Din Nu! Don’t worry, if he is still alive, I will definitely be able to find him. And I promise, I will entertain him well, don’t worry!”
As the Major General spoke, he slowly turned the knife in his hand. The blade scraped against Chen Song's ribs and scraped into Chen Song's chest, severing his heart and finally causing him to die on the spot. The dignified Ye Guozhou Master's front teeth were about to
Suffering all the humiliation, he finally died in such a miserable state, and became a cold corpse on the rocky beach of Hailing Island with hatred.
At the same time, among the prisoners in a group more than a hundred steps away from Chen Song, a conversation between him and the major general had drifted into Qi Ziyin's ears. The clothes the young man was wearing now were
Xie Xun exchanged it with him before he fell into the water. It was the seriously injured acting commander who entrusted the young master to his subordinate Chen Song!
After being attacked and falling into the water that night, Xie Xun quickly stopped breathing. The bloody smell on the corpse attracted a group of hungry sharks, which feasted on the drowned people. Qi Ziyin, Chen Song and others struggled to climb up a broken piece of debris.
He squeezed himself onto the wooden board to avoid the sharp teeth of the shark, and drifted with the current for three days before he was finally captured.
Although Qi Ziyin had removed all the clothes and accessories that could prove his identity when he was on the black ship, at this moment he clearly realized that this ill-fitting military uniform had become an obvious flaw. And his pair of
The amber pupils are proof that the identity of the young master cannot be changed, but there is no way to defend it!
Thinking of this, Qi Ziyin was sweating all over his body, and his eyelids were twitching. He knew that the young general would do his best to find him hidden in the crowd, but he couldn't think of a way to deal with it.
.This kind of fear, which is like avoiding a predator, is simply more despairing than the heart of thousands of ants.
"Zi Yin, calm down quickly! There are so many people here, even if they want to check, they will have to spend a lot of effort! Before that, we just need to seize the opportunity to escape from the island! Besides, Yue'er
She is still waiting for us to rescue her!"
A voice came from behind the young man. It was his companions who were tied up with ropes one behind the other. At this time, Jiang Yan was blaming himself for failing to prevent the enemy from taking away Ning Yue on the boat, so he sent the two The fists were clenched tightly——
In the past three years, the three of them have formed a strong bond that goes beyond ordinary friendship. Not to mention what kind of confusing entanglements they had before, and what kind of unexplainable estrangement they had in their hearts. No matter what kind of secret is hidden in the girl, and no matter how that secret is related to the blood feud that he carries, at this moment, when facing a life and death situation, the black-eyed boy must calm himself and his companions. Because Only in this way can we survive!
The encouragement from his companions seemed to have some effect, and Qi Ziyin calmed down a little, but he couldn't help but start thinking wildly: "Okay, I listen to you! But I'm afraid that Ning Yue has... already..."
"Zi Yin, please don't make random guesses. Yue'er will be fine for sure. But I have roughly guessed the identity of this young general - this person had fought against me on the Baisha Camp campus three years ago. Zhongyuan On the festival day in Sweet Water Lane, he also felt sorry for us. I am determined not to admit the saber in his hand!"
The tone of the black-eyed young man was very determined, and at the same time, he also had the anger of gritted teeth.
"You say he is Yu Li?! Only a handful of people know that I went to sea with the army this time. And he is just the newly promoted General Pinghai in the Benhai camp - could Ning Yue's words be true? , are all these things really planned and arranged by Uncle Wang behind the scenes?!"
The truth of the matter was pieced together bit by bit in the minds of the two young men, like peeling off threads from a cocoon. However, the brief conversation between them could not continue because of the attention of an axe-hand beside them.
Qi Ziyin did not dare to say anything anymore. He just shivered uncontrollably. His uneasy heart was surrounded by layers of shock and anger. In his subconscious, he could feel a huge and ugly monster more and more clearly. , is hiding in a place that is hard to see, watching and watching, gradually revealing its true face.
The young master finally no longer felt afraid and panicked, but secretly warned himself that he must live. Because only by living can he find out the truth of everything - if his uncle really has the intention to rebel, he must Try your best to return to Mulu City and stop him before the situation gets out of control!
