Daming pirates

Because now they turned around and started sailing back north, the southeast wind was blowing on the sea, and the wind direction was very favorable for sailing. Therefore, after the ship turned around and headed north, the sailing speed was much faster than when heading south, and there was no need to

By constantly adjusting the sails to catch the wind, you can basically maintain the sailing direction. Otherwise, the ship relies on just a few of them to operate the ship. Just constantly adjusting the sails can tire them all out!

In addition, God seems to be more helpful. Although typhoons are more frequent at sea this season, they never encountered any typhoons this time. Even if there were some winds and rains, they were not serious. Occasionally, one or two light rains did not harm them.

It caused too much trouble. On the contrary, it also brought some of the sea heat, allowing people on the boat to feel more or less cool. The wind and waves on the sea were basically in a relatively stable state.

In addition, after they turned around and returned, Liu Laoliu considered that there were currently too few people on the ship and they might not be able to resist if they encountered pirates again, so based on his experience, he deliberately chose an uncommon route to ensure the route.

Without making any major deviations, it effectively avoids some waters often frequented by pirates.

So under such favorable circumstances, the people on the boat were quite lucky. At noon on the fourth day of the trip, they followed Liu Laoliu's instructions and sailed the boat back to Funing Prefecture.

The outer sea area.

Yu Xiaotian is relatively familiar with the terrain and island conditions along the coast of Fujian. There are many islands along the coast of Fujian and Guangdong, and they are dotted along the coast. This is also the reason why there were many pirates along the coast of Fujian and Guangdong in the past dynasties. The power of the imperial government

It is difficult to effectively control so many islands along the coast. Many islands are actually in a state of enclaves. Pirates take advantage of this convenience to control some islands that are difficult for the imperial army to effectively monitor. They occupy these islands and rely on these islands.

Pirates sailed out to sea to plunder their bases.

The actual jurisdiction of Funing Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty was Fu'an City, Ningde City and Xiapu County in later generations. There were many islands distributed along the coasts of Xiapu County and Ningde. In fact, Funing Prefecture had no control over these islands in this era.

The control of the islands is also very weak. It is not very difficult for people like Liu Laoliu's old brother to find an island to settle on the coast.

Under the guidance of Liu Laoliu, the ship slowly advanced along the coastline, and finally saw an island in the distance. Liu Laoliu excitedly pointed at the island and shouted to Xiaotian: "Look, brother, the one in front of you is

This is the island! We are finally home!"

After Yu Xiaotian heard Liu Laoliu's shout, he immediately rushed to the bow of the ship and looked into the distance.

After watching the sea for so many days in a row, the people on the boat were already visually tired and had become familiar with the majestic waves and beautiful scenery of the sea. Now after hearing Liu Laoliu's shout, everyone became a little excited.

Even Li Jiazi and Hu Cheng, who were unwilling to do so, seemed a little excited. They leaned out of the side of the ship and looked in the direction of Liu Laoliu's finger.

A black spot appeared in front of everyone's eyes. From a distance, they could tell that it was indeed a small island. As the ship moved forward, the island began to gradually enlarge in everyone's eyes.

When the boat got closer, Yu Xiaotian saw that the island was indeed not very big. It was about two kilometers long from north to south and only about one mile wide from east to west. It was a long and narrow island with the north and south sides of the island.

The two ends are high, and the terrain in the middle is low, but the highest altitude is only about a hundred meters above sea level. Standing at the highest point, you can overlook the entire island. Most of the island is covered with shrubs, and many seabirds live on the island.

superior.

Looking towards the island from the boat, from their point of view, they could not see any villages on the island, probably because it was blocked by high ground. However, it seemed that the size of the island could support dozens of people without much problem.

It was indeed a quite secluded place, so Yu Xiaotian suddenly became happy.

Under the command of Liu Laoliu, the ship began to adjust the sails and rudder, and sailed towards the island. It could be seen that Liu Laoliu must have been to this island often before and was familiar with the terrain of the island. He soon ordered Hu Cheng to sail the ship.

Approached the island.

Finally, the ship approached the southeast corner of the island, where Yu Xiaocai saw a small bay. The protruding part of the island extended into the sea, forming an encircling shape, enclosing a piece of water into the island.

There is a waterway for boats to enter and dock on the shore.

This small inlet is very small and can only accommodate two or three boats of their size. If the boats were larger, it would be difficult to sail into the small inlet.

Once the ship entered the waterway, the people on the ship quickly lowered the sails. Liu Tong and Yu Xiaotian both picked up long poles and stood on both sides of the ship. From time to time, they followed Liu Laoliu's instructions and used poles to support the shore.

There were rocks on the rocks to prevent the ship from running aground. After a lot of trouble, the ship entered the inlet. When I turned around, I found that the sea could no longer be seen from here. It was really a pretty good hiding place, but it was a pity that the island

The trees are relatively low, and once someone climbs to the high point of the island, they can easily spot the boats in the inlet. This is also a drawback.

But for Xiaotian, he is already content to find such a place to stay for the time being. As for the future, he can only talk about it in the future. After all, in this era, he can finally find a down-to-earth place, and there is no room for him.

What a picky thing.

Liu Laoliu called this island Xiaohuang Island. Later generations of Yu Xiaotian have never heard of an island with this name in this area. Either he didn't know about it, or maybe this island was in his old time and space.

The name had been changed, but Xiaotian could roughly judge by asking things from Liu Laoliu along the way that this place should be on the southeast sea of ​​Xiapu County, relatively close to the land, and there should be many islands around it.

But he really couldn't guess which island this should be.

Just when their ship docked, Yu Xiaotian saw some figures appearing on the seashore more than two miles north of the island from the bow of the ship, and then a small sailboat was pushed into the sea by the people on the island.

The sails were quickly raised.

Liu Laoliu walked limping to Yu Xiaotian and said with a smile: "Pirates come and go in this area from time to time. A few old brothers on the island have a small boat. Once they find a boat coming, they quickly get into the water and prepare to escape. They

I don’t know it’s me coming here right now, but when I get to the shore, say hello and they will come over!”

Just after the ship was stable, Li Yaozi threw an anchor into the sea with great effort, then jumped off the ship proactively, took the cable that Yu Xiaotian threw to him, dragged it to the seaside, and coiled it around a protrusion on the shore.

The pillar-shaped rocks raised up allowed the ship to dock firmly on the shore.

The people on the island had been observing them. When they saw that there were not many people on their boat and they did not look like pirates, they also pulled back their small sailboat, returned to the shore, and slowly and cautiously moved towards the small boat.

Shuiwan walked over, but it could be seen that they still looked nervous. They all had hoes, harpoons and the like in their hands, obviously for self-defense at any time.

"Horse face! Is that your kid? It's me! I'm Liu Laoliu! Why don't you hurry up and help me get off the boat? Where's Liu Wang? Why didn't you see that kid?" Liu Laoliu doesn't care about his age.

A little older, but with pretty good eyesight, he recognized a person on the shore from a distance, put his hands beside his mouth, and shouted loudly.

After hearing Liu Laoliu's shouts, the people on the shore immediately relaxed a lot and ran towards the ship one after another.

Only then did Yu Xiaotian see clearly that there were more than a dozen people on the island, including four or five older people, and the rest were about seven or eight younger people, all of whom seemed a little excited.

With the help of Yu Xiaotian, Liu Tong and Hu Cheng, a springboard was quickly lowered into the boat. With Yu Xiaotian's support, Liu Laoliu limped off the springboard and faced the group of people.

One of the old men with a long face came over quickly, gave Liu Laoliu a hand and said in surprise: "Lao Liu! Why are you here at this time? Why is your leg so lame? Is something wrong?"

Liu Laoliu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's a long story! I'll talk about it later. You go on the boat first, take off the sails, and tie the boat up!"

While talking, Liu Laoliu pulled the man he called Ma Lian and whispered a few words. Ma Lian's expression changed slightly, and he immediately waved to the young people following him and gave them some instructions in a low voice.

After everyone heard this, they immediately got on the boat to help lower the sails, and then tied the boat firmly to the shore. Yu Xiaotian followed Liu Laoliu and listened carefully. It turned out that Liu Laoliu was worried about Hu Chenghe after they got off the boat.

Li Yaozi was dishonest and took the opportunity to sail the ship away from here, so he asked Ma Lian to let the young people here take control of the ship. In this way, even if Li Yaozi and Hu Cheng had any ideas, they would not be able to leave the island.

.

After seeing that the people on the island had taken control of the ship, Liu Laoliu took Yu Xiaotian and a few old brothers to a place farther on the shore, pointed at Yu Xiaotian and introduced them: "This

It’s brother Yu! He’s the new little brother I met on the ship!

If it hadn't been for this brother Yu who fought so hard to save me, I would have lost my life in the sea this time! I would never see my brothers again!"

When Liu Laoliu's old brothers heard this and looked at Yu Xiaotian's figure, they didn't dare to underestimate Yu Xiaotian. They immediately clasped their fists and thanked Xiaotian. Their attitude was quite good! But looking at Yu Xiaotian

Everyone's eyes were still a little confused about Yu Xiaotian's hair. Except for monks in this era, few people would shave their hair so short. At a quick glance, they felt that Yu Xiaotian looked a bit like the Jiannu Tatars from Liaodong. However,

Jiannu Tatars all had pigtail pigtails on the back of their heads, but Yu Xiaotian did not have pigtails. However, it was not inconvenient for everyone to ask about Yu Xiaotian's origin and identity at this time, but they quickly asked Liu Laoliu who he had met.

What.

Liu Laoliu continued: "This time we went to Macau with the boat, but our boat met the people of Haiyaozi in the north of Nanao. The third son of Haiyaozi caught up with our boat with a boat. The owner of the boat was reluctant to part with it.

The ship owner wanted to fight to the death with those guys, but the ship owner was killed on the spot by the pirates' musket. The pirates boarded the ship and killed most of the people on the ship. They also planned to kill a few of us as well. Originally

I planned to jump into the sea to escape, but I got a pirate's arrow in the butt!

Fortunately, my brother saw that I was injured, so he stayed and saved a few of us. He also killed the third son of the Sea Harrier. He also killed all the pirates who jumped over and frightened the pirates away.

The boat saved a few of us lives!

No, my injury was treated by Brother Yu himself. In just a few days, the arrow wound on my butt has been healed to a minimum! Brother Yu is my savior, Liu Laoliu!"

Yu Xiaotian quickly waved his hand and said: "I don't dare to take it seriously! This is all because Uncle Six was kind and righteous to me first. Otherwise, I wouldn't have done this! This is what I should do! Anyone else would do it!"

When everyone heard that Yu Xiaotian actually killed Hai Yaozi's third son, and also killed all the pirates who joined the gang, everyone had to look at Xiaotian with admiration, and they didn't dare to neglect him, so several of Liu Laoliu's elders

The brother hurriedly paid tribute to Yu Xiaotian again.

(I'm dizzy. I was suddenly distanced from the third place yesterday. I don't understand why! Today my wife has to go to the hospital for a check-up, so I can only update one chapter. I'm very sorry! But I will update at least three chapters tomorrow to make up for it, and another one on Monday.

The new book list will be cleared and the rankings will be re-ranked. I hope you guys can help me reach the top three tomorrow. I will reserve the red tickets in your hands first. Hanfeng kneels down and thanks everyone! Please smash down the red tickets tomorrow morning. Remember

Remember!

By the way, I almost forgot to give special thanks to three friends: libashiji, Autumn Maple Forest, and Black Heart Man for their rewards! Your support is the most basic factor for the success of this book! Thank you very much!)
