175 Intriguing Pirate Life
The port of Singapore in this era is not as vibrant as modern. The ports that have not yet been fully opened only have a few large ships to stay, and there are more small fishing boats on the pier.
In this relatively closed environment, it is more convenient for Singapore's local snakes to monitor outsiders.
According to the information provided by Mrs. Qing, Xiaofeng has a special quirk.
He likes to enjoy the steam bath and simply builds his base camp in a large bathhouse.
To reach that special bathhouse, Xin Sheng needs to go upstream along the Singapore River from the port exit.
Mrs. Qing arranged a linker for Xin Sheng. After using the complex port environment to escape the tracking, Xin Sheng successfully arrived at the Hekou Wharf to find people.
"Yo ho,haul together,hoist the Colors high(克可, turn sail together, raise the flag)"
Humming in a low voice as the Pirate Guild's long-standing song, The Colours (raising the flag), Xin Sheng turned on the Hawkeye vision to scan the river port dock.
This song is the secret code agreed by Mrs. Qing and Nei Ying.
When he said this, Xin Sheng wanted to complain.
‘It seems like the pirates under Xiaofeng can’t sing… What if they get the wrong answer?’
Hoist The Colours are songs dedicated to the Pirate Guild. Once this song is sung by pirates all over the world, the pirate lords who lead the five oceans must gather and be prepared to deal with huge problems.
The boatman at the River Harbor Pier turned his head and looked at the hooded man who was humming. The pirate song sung by Xin Sheng made some people look horrified.
“heave ho,thieves and beggars,never shall we die(Luck, thieves and beggars, we will never die)”
A short man wearing a bamboo fisherman's hat walked towards Xin Sheng and sang the second half of the lyrics in response.
"Xin Sheng?"
Xin Sheng knew that he had found the connector and whispered: "It's me, are you Mrs. Qing's person?"
"Yes, get on the boat, let's leave first, it's not safe here."
...
While raising the boat along the river, the Joiner was silent and had no intention of taking the initiative to chat with Xin Sheng.
Xin Sheng took this opportunity to examine the contemporary Singapore atmosphere.
To describe it in one word, it is lifeless.
I don’t know if the internal situation in Johor is not good, which makes the people unable to raise their hopes for life, or if the local pirate lord Xiaofeng was too oppressed.
During the period of time along the river, Xin Sheng’s biggest impression of Singapore was that it was boring.
The vendors on the street dared not shout, and the pedestrians passing by were also hurriedly walking down their heads, as if they could encounter danger at any time on the street.
‘What’s wrong.’
Xin Sheng's brows gradually frowned: "No matter what, Singapore is also the key to the Strait of Malacca. Even if it is not fully opened to the outside world, the port area should have the most basic vitality."
'This situation is like a sign of a storm. Local residents seem to have known that something will happen recently?'
After narrowing his eyes and thinking for a while, Xin Sheng gradually became suspicious, and he seemed to look at the back of the headman with a deep meaning.
"Man, has something big happened in Singapore recently?"
“Or…is going to happen?”
"No."
The headman said in a muffled voice: "Although Xiaofeng is in a bad position, his leadership is indeed above his brother Liang Dao."
"Except for being humiliated in Zhengjiabao last year because of the Long Ceramic Tile incident, Singapore has been very stable and no major incidents have occurred."
Xin Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Dragon Tiles?"
"Yes, this incident has spread in the nearby waters long ago, and is said to be related to an alien pirate named Jack Sparrow."
“Uh~”
Xin Sheng's mouth twitched: "It turned out that it was your kid who did it."
In Pirates of the Caribbean 3, Xiaofeng, who made his debut for the first time, was obviously hostile to Jack. I heard that he had been humiliated before.
‘It seems that this is the case. What the hell is Long Ceramic Tiles?’
The contactor only knew that this happened and was not clear about the whole story.
But he told Xin Sheng about the final outcome of Long Ceramic Tiles.
"No one got the treasure. It is said that it was sank into the sea and was stolen by the monsters in the sea."
"Ha~ I actually blamed the reason for losing the dragon tiles on the head of the sea monster, Xiaofeng is really ridiculous."
‘Absurd…?’
Xin Sheng doesn't think so.
There are indeed many strange magical creatures in the world view of Pirates of the Caribbean. It is nothing strange that dragon tiles are really taken away by sea monsters.
Xin Sheng asked in a cheerful tone indifferent manner, "By the way, how are Mrs. Qing and Xiaofeng's business negotiations?"
"It's still...what business are you referring to?"
The conditioned reflex ejected two words, and the contactor suddenly noticed something was wrong and immediately changed his mouth and asked.
“Haha~”
After verifying the bad guess in his heart, a cold light flashed in Xin Sheng's eyes.
"Of course I'm betraying me and dividing up the Aztec gold coins business."
"Clang!"
The connector didn't expect Xin Sheng to notice something was wrong from the atmosphere in Singapore so keenly, but as a well-trained insider, he threw down the artemisia pole that was propped up the boat as quickly as possible and pulled out the short knife at his waist.
"Wow~ don't be so excited."
Compared with speed, Xin Sheng has never been afraid of anyone.
The moment the opponent pulled out the short sword, Xin Sheng jumped out of the boat, and his right arm poked out from the opponent's right armpit, and surrounded the neck of the connector.
"Click~"
Amid the faint metal friction, the thin sleeve sword popped out of the arm armor and pressed against the neck of the connector.
The cold touch from the neck stopped the joint's struggle, and his right arm, which was forced to raise high, froze in the air.
"Brother, you probably don't want to die yet, right? Tell me, how did Xiaofeng plan to deal with me?"
The slinger, who was only about 1.6 meters away from the ground with Xin Sheng's powerful arms, became more and more difficult to breathe.
"I...I said! Let me down first."
Xin Sheng was so kind that the short gangster landed on the ground, snatched his short knife and stabbed it hard into the boat board behind him.
"Dole!"
The heavy sound of the wooden board made the jointer tremble. He could imagine how much force the other party used to throw the short knife. If this force was used on himself...
"Mrs. Qing asked me to bring you all the way to the bathhouse. Xiaofeng will arrange an ambush indoors to capture you."
"Xiaofeng's fleet is gathering, and Mrs. Qing's fleet is also heading south from the East China Sea. The Jackdaw will soon be attacked."
“It was very thoughtful.”
While the alarm bell sounded in his heart, Xin Sheng felt a little strange.
With the cruelty of the pirate, once he catches the target, he will kill him on the spot. Why did he choose to capture him?
Although they did not understand Xiaofeng and Mrs. Qing's intentions, their ruthlessness gave Xin Sheng the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"Brother, please cooperate with me to act in a play."
Xin Sheng smiled and put Hepal on the other party's shoulder: "According to the original plan, take me into Xiaofeng's bathhouse."
"What do you...what do you want to do?"
"This is not what you should worry about, do it, or not?"
"I...I do it!"
"Very good, keep on raising the boat."
Instead of sitting back to the cabin, Xin Sheng tightened his hood and stood behind the connector, keeping his surveillance at any time.
Seeing the other party's eyes wandering around the river, Xin Sheng sneered and raised the Artemis bow that was already holding in his left hand.
"Don't think of diving and escaping, you don't think of coming out again after entering the water."
