Chapter 121
The second master of Skull Island was named Geng Xinghan. He lay on his back on the deck, like a stranded octopus.
This was his habit every time he did something, quietly and carefully feeling the surge of the waves under him. He grew up by the sea since childhood, and had an inexplicable sense of closeness to the ocean from a young age, able to intuitively judge when a storm was approaching even as a small child.
Later becoming a pirate was just a matter of course.
The coarse sea breeze swept across his face, he stuck out his tongue to lick the air, and the taste of the sea breeze was a bit salty.
Similar to blood.
The thing that surged in his veins was getting hot, as planned, his own woman had already boarded the ship. She was a very tasty woman, and Geng Xinghan couldn't help but think of the taste of being with her in bed. This trick had been used more than once or twice, and it worked well every time.
Next, his own woman will destroy the sail. On the high seas, a sailless boat is like a yellow flower girl who has fallen into a den of thieves, waiting for someone to climb on her.
Here "up" means up in a literal sense.
On the vast ocean, one can't see five fingers when stretching out their hand, only two ships' lights are lonely and approaching. In front of them, dozens of small boats form a semicircle, like an open giant mouth, waiting for prey to walk into its jaws.
It's time to take action. Geng Xinghan grasped his fishing spear, ready to get up, and in the process, he scooped up a handful of seawater with one hand and licked his fingers.
This is also one of his habits.
The taste of seawater is salty.
Similar to blood.
No, not like blood, this is blood. Geng Xinghan looked at his hand in surprise, with a faint blood stain on his palm. He looked out to sea again, and a floating corpse slowly floated towards him.
Geng Xinghan broke out in a cold sweat.
As a pirate, his blade had tasted blood many times before, and one more corpse on the surface of the sea wouldn't scare him. The key was the identity of the corpse...
That charming woman's peach blossom eyes, her cheeks as full as a steamed bun, and...and that wet, dripping long hair, just like...
She is his own woman, and especially loves her seaweed-like long hair.
Like a seaweed, swaying with the wind, dancing in the waves.
Geng Xing Han's eyes bulged with rage, his hand gripping the fish spear tightly as his veins burst forth. "Who the hell turned on this annoying BGM?!"
"Get moving!"
A loud shout rose up, and several weapons gleamed in the moonlight as Geng Xinghan gazed venomously at the approaching cargo ship, waiting for it to enter their encirclement.
Suddenly!
The lights on both ships went out at the same time, and in the darkness of the sea surface, they seemed to have entered another space-time.
The bow of the boat, Cheng Dalai waved his hand and raised his head, uttering two words: "Hold the arrow."
On both sides of the ship's gunwale, there are people drawing bows and setting arrows.
Darkness is fair, Geng Xinghan can't see Cheng Dairen at the same time, and Cheng Dairen must not be able to see him either. But both sides can perceive the hidden danger in the darkness, like some unknown beast.
Cheng Da's side stood Zhao Zilong, with his bow drawn like a full moon.
"How far can you shoot on the sea?"
"I'm confident within a hundred paces."
"Remember, shoot the horse before shooting the man, capture the leader first." Cheng Dalai whispered.
"I understand."
The ship at this time, still maintaining full speed ahead, the distance between the two sides continued to narrow.
After losing his opponent's position, Geng Xinghan lost his composure, and the woman's death made him furious.
Charge!
He gave the order and was the first to rush forward, with a loud splash of water. The small boats around him were usually manned by two people, one holding a weapon at the bow, while the other rowed vigorously.
There were countless small boats shortening the encirclement, getting closer and closer, and in the dark night that was out of sight, only a rough position could be judged.
Some people can't wait to light up torches.
The arrow pierced through the air, and at the moment when the opponent had just raised his torch, the feathered arrow passed through his throat, and the torch fell into the sea water and was extinguished.
"Beautiful!" Cheng Dairen praised.
It was the moment when the torch lit up, and Cheng Dalai saw the situation around him. On the thick sea surface like ink, dozens of small boats swarmed over like locusts.
A sea of people.
"Arrows, ready."
As soon as someone lit a torch, arrows were immediately shot. Zhao Zilong's archery was neat to the extreme, and within 100 steps, there were no missed shots.
In just a few short breaths, more than ten people died under Zhao Zilong's arrows.
Killing, quiet and beautiful.
Geng Xinghan now knew that he had run into a tough opponent, who was fully prepared and caught his side off guard. Their original intention was to kill people and rob grain, and then tow the grain boat back to Skull Island.
But even if a dozen people died, it would have driven him frantic, and the woman's death made his anger reach new heights.
"Release the arrow, release the fire arrow."
At this moment, Geng Xinghe would rather burn the boat than let the other side escape.
Rockets came shooting over, pouring down like a rain of fire.
"Drop sail, stop boat, and lure them over."
The white sails of two ships fell at the same time, rockets landed on the ship, and everyone was busy putting out fires, and the formation was completely disrupted.
Seeing this scene, Geng Xinghan smiled complacently. Once the sails were lowered, these two ships would be like fish on a chopping board, at his mercy to slaughter as he pleased.
He ordered his men to stop shooting arrows: "Stop, get me on board."
Innumerable boats rowed close by, and as they approached the cargo ship, they released their claws to climb up. Some people couldn't wait and jumped into the water with a splash, swimming towards it.
Two ships were moored side by side, with their hulls connected together, allowing people to jump quickly from one ship to the other. One ship had Cheng Dairen, Zhao Zilong, and Gao Feibao on board, while the other had Zhang Fei, Xiao Bailang, and others. As for Liu Zhi, Su Qing, and Xue Shenji, who were not capable of fighting, they had already been arranged to be at the bottom of the cabin.
Cheng Dalai had already switched to an axe, and although the sword was also a good one, it still wasn't as handy as the axe. Many people lay quietly on the boat, with only their eyes shining brightly.
"Kill!"
Cheng Dalai suddenly jumped up, his axe cleanly chopping down one person. Another person who had not yet boarded the ship was chopped into the sea by Cheng Dalai.
Gao Fei Bao wielded a large knife, and every time he chopped down, he would let out a strange cry, it was unclear what kind of habit this was.
Little White Wolf grasped the Mandarin Duck Twin Blades, knives that specialized in finding people's throats to open them up.
The Liu family members on board were no ordinary people. They had fought against pirates at sea before, and everyone was a good swimmer.
Zhang Fei's performance was the most eye-catching, and after obtaining the snake halberd, his strength seemed to have risen to another level. He was originally a fierce general, fearless of death, and wherever the snake halberd passed, no one could stop it.
Zhao Zilong still remembered Cheng Dalai's words, he stood at the bow of the boat, staring tightly around, searching for the other party's leader. There were faint shouts of orders among the pirates, but they couldn't be heard clearly in the darkness. The person he wanted to find was nowhere to be found.
Whoosh!
An arrow shot out of the darkness and flew towards a small boat. Although it was unclear in the dark, Zhao Zilong's arrows never missed their mark.
And at this time, the killing had just begun.
