Xiao Yu and the others were familiar with this scene, but the boats that were about to rush up suddenly stopped. The man standing on the boat was looking at the ghost corpse in shock, as if he had seen a ghost.
roar....
The ghost corpse shouted loudly, making a sound almost like that of a beast. Then, under the horrified eyes of those on the opposite side, its body slowly grew larger.
"King Kong, it's King Kong, run fast."
The other side started shouting again, and then the sound of machine guns rang out again, but this time, when it landed on the ghost corpse, it made a metallic collision sound, and not a single bullet entered his body.
The ghost corpse is still getting bigger, expanding from three meters just now to ten meters in size.
The ship also began to tilt as he grew older.
"Stop, you're crazy, the boat has capsized for you."
Qinglong lay on the deck and shouted loudly.
"Oh...sorry, I'm a little excited."
The ghost corpse also noticed the tilt of the ship and quickly shrank its body before the ship's hull returned to stability.
"People don't offend me, and I don't offend anyone, but they dare to take advantage of us. Let's go and follow them. Their island belongs to us."
Xiao Yu looked up and saw the other party fleeing in the distance, and immediately asked Qinglong to sail the boat to follow him.
The ships the pirates sailed were two motorboats and one large ship, so Xiao Yu felt that their island should not be far away.
Now that I and others happen to need an island, I will go to their island to have a look, and maybe I can find treasures.
After all, in movies, wherever there are pirates, it means there is countless wealth.
Pirates have existed in China since ancient times. They robbed passing ships, took all the food, cloth, and people they robbed to the island, and then multiplied and lived in isolation from the rest of the world.
"Let's go, we just ran out of gas. Let's go look around the pirate den. Maybe we'll find something else."
Qinglong stuck his butt out and crawled toward the cab, fearing that the pirates would turn around and rob him and end his life.
But now, the pirates had no time to look back, and ran away into the distance like crazy.
The ships moved one behind the other, as if they were starting a marathon on the sea, riding the wind and waves and heading into the distance.
Gradually, a small island appeared in the sea ahead. Judging from the shape of the island, it was larger than the original island of the Blood Taoist. Moreover, there were white beaches around this island, and the water surface looked extremely clear.
Some people are bathing and surfing in the surrounding water, which looks like a small country.
The island is very big, and there is a high mountain in the middle, which is covered with plants. It looks so lush and green that it makes your eyes bright.
The island is surrounded by a short mountain range. Further down, there are many houses and coconut trees. The white sandy beach surrounds the city and just surrounds the island in the middle. It feels like the Maldives.
When a large ship docks, it needs very deep water, otherwise the ship will easily run aground. The same is true for this island. There are more than a dozen large ships in a relatively large deep-sea location, and they must have been robbed.
"Shoot, stop them, don't let them come".
Seeing Xiao Yu and others' ship getting closer and closer, the people on the pirate ship in front immediately started shouting.
As the pirates shouted, those who were swimming quickly ran towards the shore. Then, a sudden sound came out, hitting the cabin around the ship, making a thumping sound.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yu immediately asked Qinglong to stop the boat.
"Back off, don't engage in confrontation."
It's not that Xiao Yu is cowardly, but that these pirates have been here for who knows how long and have many weapons in their hands. If they had powerful weapons such as rocket launchers, my ship would have to sink here today.
Seeing Xiao Yu's serious look, Qinglong hurriedly moved the boat back a thousand meters before stopping.
"You are on the boat. The ghost zombies and I will go take a look first. Come over after we have controlled them. Don't take risks. Be careful they blow up your boat."
"That's right, you are too weak, you should wait for news from us."
The ghost corpse said something coldly next to him, causing Qinglong to swallow the words he was about to say.
"De Xing, if you don't go, I'll be free. When did you see important people walking at the front?
Go and come back quickly, don't keep me waiting too long."
Qinglong didn't take it seriously. Although his face wasn't very pretty, his words were still unforgiving.
"Be careful, we will probably take action at night. Just be careful around you, lest there are sailors boarding the ship."
Xiao Yu warned again, and then he and the ghost corpse jumped directly into the sea from the side door and began to rush towards the island.
The sea water is not very deep, only a few hundred meters, but as Xiao Yu and the others move forward, the water becomes shallower and shallower, and the coral groups gradually disappear and are slowly replaced by large rocks and sand.
"Xiao Yu, look what this is."
The ghost corpse and Xiao Yu were side by side. After walking for about a few hundred meters, the two stopped because in front of them there were some broken boxes. These boxes contained some ingot-like things and some jewelry.
Around the area where the jewelry fell, there were some sunken wooden structures, and there were some bottles and jars on the ship, which looked like Chinese things.
It’s just that it’s been too long, whether it’s a sunken ship or jewelry, they’ve all been corroded, and many of them are buried in the sand, as if waiting to be excavated.
"This is the high seas. How could a Chinese ship come here? Could it be that pirates hijacked the ship, dragged it here, and then sank it again?"
Xiao Yu looked at everything on the ship and smashed the porcelain bottles, and said doubtfully.
"Will there be treasures on the island? There are them in the sea, so there should be more on the island?"
The ghost corpse put some unbroken bottles into the Taoist vessel and looked at Xiao Yudao with shining eyes.
"It's possible. The biggest suspicion is that when Zheng He went to the West, the team was the largest at that time, so it's most likely!"
Xiao Yu said, walked into the sunken ship, picked up the porcelain and looked at it, but it was so damaged that it was impossible to tell that it was from that dynasty.
"Look, there are some over there too."
The ghost corpse pointed dozens of meters away.
Sure enough, a wooden boat landed between two rocks dozens of meters away, but that wooden boat, like the one here, was already decayed.
"Let's go and take a look first. Pay attention to your surroundings. If you have good things, put them away and don't break them."
Maritime trade existed in the Han Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, was strong in the Southern Song Dynasty, flourished in the Ming Dynasty, and began to decline in the Qing Dynasty, until now!
From the perspective of dynasties, during the Tang Dynasty, the Silk Road reached as far as the Mediterranean Sea and had connections with Europe.
During the Tang Dynasty, it began to spread to India, and European and other countries began to have contacts, but it was still impossible for merchant ships to reach here.
As for the Southern Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, these are possible because there were wars in the north and the northern trade routes were blocked, so the Maritime Silk Road was developed.
