Chapter 28 Surprise

At night, the sea was undulating and snoring in the cabin of the sea ship. Wang Qilang, who was lying on the hanging net, opened his eyes and looked at the moonlight that spilled into the cabin through the cabin door. He remembered many things and the situation when he first killed someone.

That year, he was only twelve years old and his family was too poor to survive, so he followed his uncle to make a living at sea.

The boats on the sea are very bumpy, which can make people spit out all their bile. The sun is so strong that they will peel off a layer of skin if they are not careful, let alone the shimmering waves on the sea, which can make people's eyes blurred. Wang Qilang waited for a long time before he could get it out.

Like his uncle, he has dark skin and good water quality. He can read hyacinths and sail boats.

Even so, he is still a fisherman. He went to sea hard and risked his life to catch fish and seafood he caught were taken back by fishermen and big farmers, and his life was not much left.

Until once, when I went out to sea, I caught a grayish-white, fragrant waxy drift on the sea. This is the ambergris that is more expensive than gold. Everyone thought it would be the time to operate, but it was unexpected that it was just the beginning of a nightmare.

In order to monopolize the treasure, the people on the boat began to kill each other. The moonlight that night was very white, and it was shining brightly on the deck, reflecting blood and the dagger in Wang Qilang's hand.

He survived this battle and was the only one who survived. His uncle was chopped off half of his head with an axe, and his head was spilled into a large pool. The tragic situation made him spit out all his bile.

The first time I killed someone, the first time I was scared to death by blood in my hands. That night, the deck under the moonlight was full of dead people, which would be unforgettable to Wang Qilang.

What is even more unforgettable is the taste of human flesh. Wang Qilang alone could not control such a large ship, so he floated on the sea for a while, and after eating all the dry food, he started to eat the meat of the deceased.

The taste of human flesh is really special. Wang Qilang, who had eaten human flesh, was lucky enough to return to land and became a pirate.

Fishing is not as hard as a dog raised by a wealthy family. Robbing is the shortcut to getting rich. Wang Qilang has been struggling for more than ten years and has not drowned in the sea or been hacked to death. He finally made a name for himself.

He built a boat and took more than 20 subordinates to become the owner. He pretended to be a fishing boat and wandered along the coast. When he saw the lonely boat, he would stick it on to rob, kill people and rob, and then burned the boat and destroyed the corpse.

If you meet a fleet, continue to act like a honest fishing boat.

Such a pirate life is very exciting. Wang Qilang is like a fish in water. He saves some money and plays with many women. He is used to living such a life, but he can no longer go back to his past.

Just as a shark cannot become a small yellow croaker, only by eating meat instead of shrimp can we survive.

Now, Wang Qilang was attracted by a fat prey like a shark smelling blood. The prey was not the Danluo Kingdom with barren properties, but the fleet of the Maritime Division.

The prey that slipped away from them last time was now heading to Danluo Island without knowing whether to live or not, but there were a lot of detailed work in the fleet, and when the fleet arrived near Danluo Island...

The Baekje Navy, who had been waiting for a long time, was waiting to rush forward.

The ship owner Wang Qilang later defected to a group of pirates and became one of the ship owners under the ship owner. This group of pirates appeared in Qingqi, Baekje, Silla, Danlu and the coastal areas of Japan, robbing passing ships.

Later, he was hired to help his employer solve his problems.

In recent years, a special fleet from Zhou State, a vassal state of the Japanese state, has arrived regularly in Hakata Port, a vassal state of the Japanese state, bringing many Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues, silk, cloth, incense and medicine from the Central Plains, which has had an adverse impact on the intimate relationship between Baekje and Japan.

The powerful and powerful in Japan strongly promoted Buddhism. They originally introduced Buddhist scriptures and statues from Baekje, and sent people to Baekje to learn Buddhism. This fleet from Zhou Kingdom made things almost ruined.

So someone hired them to deal with this fleet.

The proceeds from the robbery belong to them, and they just need to kill people and burn the boat afterwards.

Such a cost-effective deal, the ship owner naturally agreed and took the ship owners to deal with the fleet.

It is difficult to start with Hakata, so Wang Qilang and others waited in the Danluo Island waters, waiting for the other party to return to the Central Plains and then attacked.

Since ancient times, the routes taken by sea boats from the Central Plains to Baekje and Japan have been basically fixed. From the coastal areas of Qingqi in the Central Plains to the north, to Chengshanjiao and northeast, and to the Baekje waters, take the coastal route to Japan.

During this period, the ship must pass through the Tangluo Kingdom, the Tanluo Kingdom (Tanluo Island), the Tusma Kingdom, a branch country, and then to the Hakata Port (Hadatsu) of the Tangluo Kingdom, and the return journey will be reversed.

Therefore, the Tanluo Sea cannot be avoided, so the pirates who belong to Wang Qilang are waiting for a "waiting for the rabbit" in Danluo.

However, the fleet they were dealing with was a bit strange, and it was not on this route!

Wang Qilang and other pirates were very surprised by this, because it means that the other party may have directly crossed the Black Water Ocean and traveled between the two.

Directly crossing the Black Water Ocean means that the fleet cannot rely on land when sailing. The islands are used to determine the direction by referring to the sun and the stars at night. The ability to sail across oceans is very high.

But even so, the Maritime Vessel fleet, loaded with a large amount of silver, did not dare to take risks. It was taking a traditional route back to the Central Plains, so it was waited by pirates such as Wang Qilang.

Ten of the fifteen ships fled, and the five ships that sank in the Danluo Sea were salvaged by the pirates and made a fortune.

The Zhou State's Maritime Warehouse Department then began to recruit brave men and gather sea ships in a few months. It seemed that they were planning to come back to take revenge. Wang Qilang, who was born in Jiaozhou, sneaked back to his hometown with a dozen companions to take risks and lurked as his own internal agents placed in the fleet.

When this mighty fleet arrived in the Danluo Sea, it would be found that the Baekje Navy was ready. During the battle, Wang Qilang and others would take the opportunity to set fire on the ship and attack inside and outside.

The Danluo Kingdom is now a vassal of Baekje. Baekje will not sit idly by and watch Zhou attack Danluo and ignore it. Only by cutting off Zhou's hand toward Japan can the close relationship between Baekje and Japan remain unchanged.

This is what the employer is thinking about. For Wang Qilang, how to make money from this ambush is the most critical thing.

He had been secretly observing the ship in the past few days and stared at the "nauthor" on the ship. The other party used a very strange device to "see" the sun and stars, thereby directing the ship's direction of travel.

Wang Qilang felt that this was the secret of crossing the Black Water Ocean. Once the war began, he would take advantage of the troubled waters, rob the "nauthor" and then silence the secret.

At that time, he can use this secret to travel across the black waters, come and go freely, and gather a large number of subordinates himself, not only to be the owner of a large ship, but also to occupy the island and become the "original master".

Thinking of this, Wang Qilang was overjoyed. Before he knew it, he found that the moonlight leaking into the cabin had faded. After thinking about it, he judged that it must be dawn.

There was a sound of gongs coming from the top of the cabin, and someone shouted loudly, "Get up and do things." The people lying in the cabin were woken up, sat up, rubbed their eyes, and yawned.

He heard a clamor from above, saying that he would get up and eat dry food soon, and prepare for war later. Wang Qilang was shocked and took the lead in climbing the ladder to the deck.

Now the east is white and the sky is getting brighter. It is indeed dawn. Wang Qilang, who is empty in his stomach, has not yet been able to queue up to get dry food, but is shocked by the scene before him:

A large area of ​​land appeared on the sea level in front of the (east), and a flat-topped mountain in the center of the land was particularly conspicuous.

Wang Qilang is very familiar with this scene. The mountain on the land ahead is clearly the Pingding Mountain on Danluo Island.

So fast, so fast! It took only a few days to arrive in Danluo?

Wang Qilang thought so in his heart, looked around, looked at the ships moving forward through the waves, and then looked at the harbor on the left (north side) of Danluo Island ahead. It seemed that he could see the masts like forests. At this moment, he felt a chill on his back.

At this time, the Baekje Navy stationed in Tanluo was probably not able to react yet!
