Chapter 63 [Sea King Order]
There are a few sparse houses to the south of Xianren Island. Next to the house are tall palm trees. Under the shade of dense palm trees, there are more than a dozen pirates sitting in the middle. The one who is always ambitious to become the second East Sea King.
"Do you know what the island owner is doing now?" Leng Zhao sat down on the tree trunk, playing with the dagger in her hand, and asked with a sneer.
A pirate immediately said: "Brother Leng, a brother came to report just now. The island owner released the imperial envoy. Now he is serving the wine and vegetables. The wine and vegetables are something we can't eat normally, and they are poured into the dog's mouth. There is also the little sea supervisor, who doesn't know what his identity is. The island owner looks very respectful to him, but the brothers are too far away to hear what they say."
Leng Zhao wiped the dagger under his cheek and said lightly: "Brothers, in your opinion, what are the island master and the little sea steward talking about?"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
After a while, someone heard someone say, "Are you trying to persuade the little sea manager to write a letter and hand it over to the official family so that the official family can pay the money?"
"We did these jobs, how could the island owner do it?" Someone immediately retorted: "What's more, if you really want to write a letter, why don't the imperial envoy write the high-ranking official, but let a small sea supervisor write it? Could it be that the small sea supervisor is more useful than the imperial envoy?"
As soon as this was said, everyone agreed.
Leng Zhao looked up at the sky, then glanced at everyone, and then slowly said: "Those who are present are Leng Zhao's brothers of life and death. Over the years, the island owner has been unwell. Although he took the idea to go to sea, the real worker is me and my brothers. We are brothers who are born and die together, so Leng Zhao will not avoid you when he speaks."
Everyone said, "Brother Leng, we are brothers, we all listen to what you say."
Someone even said: "Brother Leng, you have some life. If you go up to the mountain of swords and fall into the sea of fire, even if I sacrifice my life, I will follow your instructions. Hundreds of people in the Immortal Island can have a meal in the past few years, and that is what Brother Leng rewards."
Leng Zhao showed a rare smile on her face and said, "You can't say this. Everyone worked hard together. Brothers just gave Leng Zhao face and obeyed Leng Zhao's instructions. Leng Zhao was grateful." After a pause, a cold look flashed across his eyes and said coldly: "Brothers, it's not Leng Zhao's eyes are without island masters, nor is it Leng Zhao trying to blaspheme the island master, but... Leng Zhao thought that we were very likely betrayed by the island master."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone changed their colors and looked at each other in silence for a moment.
...
Leng Zhao looked at the shocked faces of everyone, smiled faintly, and said, "What an island owner is, he is with a small sea pipe, and he is also very courteous. Don't you think this small sea pipe is very problematic?" He gritted his teeth and sneered, "I didn't expect that I would have taken a look this time."
"Brother Leng, are you saying that the little sea steward has a very special identity?" The man with a quick mind immediately woke up: "Who is that little sea steward?"
Leng Zhao did not answer, but said to a person not far away: "Uncle Qi, who do you think that little sea manager would be?"
The pirates immediately turned their attention to him.
Under a tall palm tree, a half-old man in his forties was sitting under the tree smoking a dry cigarette. He looked extremely thin, with yellow skin, and looked listless. His eyes were empty and confused, as if he had no nostalgia or concern for this world. If this person might jump to the sea after a moment, then people would probably believe it.
He had only one arm left and the other one was shoulder-length, and he was a disabled person, both physically and mentally disabled.
The disabled uncle Qi was smoking a dry tobacco and did not answer immediately. He just stared at a flower in a daze. Everyone looked at him, and many people even showed a look of disdain in their eyes.
The sea breeze blew, and the disabled uncle Qi's sparse hair swung with the wind, with indescribable loneliness and indescribable sorrow.
"Boss Du has gone to sea with a boat since he was five years old. He has been a man of half his life. He is an amazing person in this Dadong Sea. When it comes to Boss Du, he is a well-known name." Uncle Qi's voice was very calm, and he seemed to have no feelings. He slowly said: "Boss Du killed someone at the age of eleven. He has never been afraid of anyone for decades."
Boss Du is naturally the current island owner Du Ronghai. When everyone heard Uncle Qi say this, they suddenly thought of the island owner's former scenery and power, and they couldn't help but change their colors, and even a few people's eyes were filled with fear.
Leng Zhao frowned, her hand holding the dagger tighter, but she didn't say anything.
"There are not many people who can be treated with Boss Du." Uncle Qi said slowly, as if telling a story: "He is very respectful to the young little sea guard. Of course, he has seen the identity of the little sea guard and knows that the little sea guard is not someone he can offend."
"Who is he?" Leng Zhao asked coldly.
Uncle Qi said lightly: "There is no person in the East China Sea that Boss Du is afraid of. Even if he is a black beard, Boss Du doesn't take it seriously. But Boss Du is afraid, he is afraid of the Han family!"
"Han family?"
"Not bad." Uncle Qi's voice affirmed: "If I was not wrong, the little sea manager you arrested this time is probably from the Han family and a direct child of the Han family. Otherwise, Boss Du would not give face like this and would personally apologize."
Leng Zhao sneered coldly: "It seems that I've really misunderstood. I didn't expect that the boy's background is even bigger than that bullshit imperial envoy."
"To us, that kid is the prince of Donghai." Uncle Qi said: "The Han family has four sons and two daughters in this generation. Han Xuandao's two sons are in Yanjing, so they will not be one of them. Now there is a fourth and fifth sons in Donghai. This little sea manager is probably one of them."
An instant pirate asked, "Uncle Seven, how did you know that the island owner saw the identity of that boy? The island owner is that powerful?"
Uncle Qi's mouth was filled with a strange arc and said lightly: "Boss Du has been circulating in the East China Sea for decades. When the East China Sea was at its highest point, there were dozens of people and thousands of people. There were many people who were destroyed by Boss Du and his group. He had never seen anyone, but he still had his eyesight. It seems that it is not too difficult for Boss Du to see the identity of that boy."
Leng Zhao stood up, played with the dagger while walking, walked to Uncle Qi, before squatting down, and asked softly: "Uncle Qi, in your opinion, what will the island owner say to that kid?"
Uncle Qi glanced at Leng Zhao and said expressionlessly: "I don't know!"
"I know." Leng Zhao smiled and said, "The island owner is still in the west. He knows that his location on Xianren Island is gradually becoming less effective, so he wants to find a backer, to raise his illness and to enjoy his old age. The Han family is probably his best backer. As long as he joins the Han family, the Han family will definitely respond. At that time, he can live his life peacefully and happily."
The muscles on Uncle Qi's face twitched slightly and he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything after all.
Leng Zhao sneered and continued, "Of course, if he wants to defect to the Han family, he always has to offer some gifts, and this Immortal Island may be the gift he wants to offer." He stood up, pointed to the pirates present, and said coldly, "And you, these brothers who have been born and died with me, have long disliked us, so he will definitely use the Han family's hands to remove us all, so he can rest assured."
The pirates were startled and then whispered to each other, and then everyone showed indignation on their faces.
"Brother Leng, what do we do? Let's listen to you." A pirate gritted his teeth, picked up the big knife in his hand, waved the knife and shouted. Some of the others stood up immediately, while others hesitated and finally stood up. They all held the knife and said, "Brother Leng, let's listen to you."
"Okay, brothers, give Leng Zhao a face. Leng Zhao just said one thing, following Leng Zhao, drinking wine, eating meat, and having sex with women!" Leng Zhao held the dagger tightly and said in a deep voice: "I want to see how Du Ronghai will explain to us."
Uncle Qi coughed, and when he recovered, he said lightly: "Don't hurt the Han family's children, otherwise you will face a catastrophe." He looked at Leng Zhao and said: "Boss Du is afraid of the Han family because of the Han family's Sea King Order!"
"Aquarius Order?" Leng Zhao frowned: "When I was a child, I heard my father say this name. What exactly is Aquarius Order?"
Uncle Qi raised his head, looked at the sea in the distance, and said calmly: "That is a contract, a contract between our seamen and the Han family."
The pirates were a little confused and couldn't help but gather around.
"You all know that the King of Donghai, the ancestors of the Han family, had swept the East China Sea and ordered all the heroes to respect him and respected him as the King of Donghai. At that time, the forty-three people from the East China Sea were all under his command. At that time, the Han family even had the possibility of competing for dominance in the world." Uncle Qi took a sip of dry tobacco, which was the worst quality tobacco, which was very choking: "It was only later that the King of Donghai and King of Yan were cooking wine in the East China Sea and defected to King of Yan. Most of the heroes of the East China Sea followed the King of Donghai, but a small number of them were unwilling to work hard for King of Yan and refused to surrender. So the heroes of the East China Sea parted ways and looked for a way out."
Leng Zhao said lightly: "Our Leng family naturally disdains to surrender to the court."
"However, the King of East China made an oath with the seamen who refused to surrender to King Wu of Yan. The seamen could make their own way, but they could not harass the seamen, nor could they hurt the Han family. The Han family would also try their best to ensure the survival of the seamen. They would not kill all the seamen under the orders of the court, and even provide appropriate assistance when the seamen was in trouble. This was the oath made secretly back then, and the Sea King Order was a testimony to the oath. Once any seamen violated this agreement, the Han family could summon other seamen and attack them in groups with the order of the Sea King Order." Uncle Qi said very slowly, and everyone listened seriously: "Remember the One-Eyed Thirteen fourteen years ago? At that time, One-Eyed Thirteen had two islands, with nearly twenty ships under his command, and even five or six hundred troops in the entire East China Sea, even our Immortal Island was very afraid of it."
The pirates looked at each other and nodded slightly, obviously they knew the reputation of "One-Eyed Thirteen".
"But the One-Eyed Thirteenth was eventually wiped out by the Han family's politicians and contacting six seamen. The two islands were killed and the whole army was wiped out. You should have heard of this." Uncle Qi smoked the dry tobacco.
Leng Zhao said coldly: "Uncle Qi, what do you mean? That time did the Han family give the Sea King Order?"
Uncle Qi nodded.
Leng Zhao sneered: "Will the Han family present the Neptune Order to deal with our Immortal Island this time?"
The bandits suddenly became disgusted. They knew the interests of the Han family. The Donghai Pacifier Army in the hands of the Han family was the order of the King of Hell on the Sea. No one could afford to offend him. If they really wanted to deal with the Immortal Island, Immortal Island would be afraid that the corpse would not exist.
"Don't be afraid." Leng Zhao said slowly: "At the time when the One-eyed Thirteen thought he was self-righteous and had not yet gained strength, and had not yet recovered all the sea troops, he provoked the Han family and deserved to be destroyed. Moreover, when the Han family sent a policing army, he was still showing off and fighting with the Han family, how could he not perish? If he avoided it, the Han family might not be able to destroy him."
Although everyone was still a little afraid of this, they agreed with this.
Leng Zhao glanced at the person in the middle and continued: "The matter is now very obvious. The island owner wants to use us as his gift to surrender to the Han family and please the little prince of the Han family, but he ignores our future. I don't force myself to persuade you to make a decision, but Leng Zhao will never wait to die!"
Immediately someone shouted: "Brother Leng, I said, I will do whatever you want me to do, and we will follow you."
"Yes, we will follow you." The pirates shouted: "Even if the Han family sends people to come, we will leave here. I don't believe that the Han family will always stay here. There are so many islands in the East China Sea, and there will always be a place for us to stay."
"Brother Leng, tell me, what should we do."
Leng Zhao smiled and said slowly, "As long as we hold the little prince of the Han family in our hands, it will be our bargaining chips, the Han family will not act rashly. We will use him to get a large sum of silver from the Han family first, and then let their Han family hand over several ships. At that time, we had something in our hands and the vast sea would let us gallop."
"But...will the island owner agree?" someone asked.
"He will agree." Leng Zhao said hatefully, murderous intent appeared in her eyes.
Uncle Qi said lightly, "Leng Zhao, your courage is greater than your father, and your heart is crueler than your father."
"You are not a gentleman without poison, but a husband!" Leng Zhao said lightly: "Uncle Qi, you went to sea with the island master when you borrowed your brother to avoid the enemy's sword, which killed your brother's life. The island master returned to the island and chopped you up with one hand, and ignored you. For twelve years, you are like a walking corpse. He is not cruel to you? Don't you want to exclaim this bad breath?"
Uncle Qi's eyes were filled with deep pain, but his voice was calm: "I am a disabled person, I can't help you."
"Maybe it's a surprise soldier!" Leng Zhao said.
"Shock?" Uncle Qi looked up at Leng Zhao and said lightly: "Maybe... it's really a surprise!"
