Chapter 281 [Capturing the Ship] (Part 2)
Although Lao An raised his fishing gun, he had no chance to take action. His fingers just fell on the trigger. Luo Lie had already solved the enemy. Lao An couldn't help but smile bitterly. After all, he was old and he was much slower than young people.
Ye Qinghong pressed down a little hard, and the blade suddenly pierced the skin of the bearded man's throat. A wisp of blood flowed down his throat. The bearded man was so scared that he lost his soul and said tremblingly: "Good luck to the woman..."
This was the first time Ye Qinghong heard someone calling him this, and saw that the bearded man seemed fierce. He didn't expect that he was so brave, so he couldn't help but want to laugh.
Lao An came over and said coldly: "Tell me! How many people are there on this boat?"
The bearded man honestly replied: "In addition to the three of us, there are nineteen people...the wounded...all the wounded were sent to the Black Shark for treatment."
Old Andu said: "Didn't you lie to me?"
"Don't dare..."
Before he finished speaking, Lao An raised his right hand and gave him a heavy palm on his neck, knocking the bearded man out, then tied him up with a rope, and stuffed a piece of rag into his mouth.
Luo Liedao: "There are nineteen more people."
Ye Qinghong said calmly: "The crowd is full of chaos!"
They were not the only three of them who were thinking about this sudden storm. Tsui Harding and Shao Wei also decided to take advantage of the cover of the storm to enter the Haishi Forest again. It was much smaller than the previous situation. They only sent three ships and fifteen people, but these fifteen people were all the elites in their team, and they were led by Shao Wei himself.
Three small boats were marching against the wind and rain, marching between the waves and the reefs, and successfully entered the sea stone forest.
The towering reefs of the Haishi Forest blocked a lot of wind and waves outside. As soon as they entered the internal waters of the Haishi Forest, they felt that the wind and waves were much smaller. Despite this, Shao Wei still did not dare to order the boat to continue moving forward. They docked three boats in the shelter, leaving five people to guard the boat, and the remaining ten people disembarked under Shao Wei's guidance to get closer to the target.
This storm created excellent conditions for infiltration. Although the storm is not small, it is now at low tide. The sea water in the sea stone forest is very shallow, and the shallowest place has even just submerged its ankles. Shao Wei directed everyone to sneak through the cover of the reef forest.
At first they were worried that there might be ambush on the reef, but this situation did not happen. The group successfully arrived inside the Haishi Forest and could see the stranded ships fifty meters away.
Shao Wei made a palm pressing action and signaled his subordinates to stop moving temporarily. It was not long before dark. Although it was dark and the wind and rain were swaying, if they continued to get closer, they might still be exposed. They needed more patience. After dark, it would be easier to hide their bodies and would also lead to a high tide.
The hatch door was kicked open, and Ye Qinghong and Lao An raised their guns and aimed at the pirates who were gambling inside.
The group of pirates were only shocked after the door was kicked open. They hurried to pull out their guns, but it was too late. Ye Qinghong and Lao An pulled the trigger at the same time and shot two pirates. Lao An shouted, "Rise your hand!"
When the pirates saw their companions being shot dead on the spot, no one dared to take risks and raised their hands as Lao An said.
Luo Lie asked them to throw their weapons to the ground, and the three of them escorted the group of pirates to let them enter the bottom cabin. Lao An used a lock to lock the door of the bottom cabin.
Ye Qinghong was responsible for guarding the bottom cabin. Luo Lie and Lao An returned to the cockpit together. The bearded man was awake at this time. Lao An pulled the rag out of his mouth, pressed the gun against his forehead and said, "Which ship is Hai Liantian?"
The bearded man said tremblingly: "Big...the boss...has not come...this time it's the second...the second boss Xu...xu..."
Old Andau: "Tsui Harwen?"
The bearded man nodded in a hurry. When Lao An heard the news, he felt mixed feelings. He thought that Hai Liantian might come in person. If this happens, his years of revenge can finally be paid for his blood debt, but he did not expect that Hai Liantian did not come and his heart was indescribable.
Luo Lie secretly complained that something was wrong. Lao An was blinded by hatred. Hai Liantian was not there. His primary target of revenge was Hai Mingzhu, and he was likely to have a murderous thought of Hai Mingzhu.
Luo Lie did not want to be merciful, but their current situation was not good. Before escaping from the predicament, Lao An's blind revenge would only attract crazy revenge from the other party. Luo Lie reminded Lao An: "Would we leave here first?"
Lao An nodded and said, "No, I naturally have to leave here first. As long as Hai Mingzhu is in my hands, I will not worry about Hai Liantian's missing."
He said to the bearded man, "Are you the captain?"
The bearded man shook his head vigorously: "Miss is..." Although Hai Mingzhu is the captain, she relies on the bearded man when it comes to sailing.
Lao An sneered, "Well!" He said to Luo Lie, "Since Hai Liantian is not without the need to fight, let's go and pick people up now."
Luo Lie immediately understood what he meant. Lao An wanted to drive a boat into the Haishi Forest and transfer Zhang Changgong and the others from the damaged ship. In fact, Luo Lie's original intention was the same. If it weren't for the fact that the Hailong Gang would not honestly exchange hostages, he would not have taken the risk of taking the ship. Everything went smoothly.
Luo Liedao: "Amber is sure to drive this ship into the sea stone forest?"
Lao Andao: "If such a big ship wants to enter the Sea Stone Forest, you can only go from our original entrance, but if you enter from there, you will inevitably be exposed."
Luo Liedao: "You mean..."
Old Andao: "Just move the boat to the vicinity of the Sea Stone Forest, they can transfer it to the boat via a small boat."
Luo Lie said: "I'll go back and notify them."
Lao An said: "No hurry, wait until I get the boat close to the sea stone forest, it will not be too late for you to get off the boat."
As night falls in the wind and rain, the water level in the sea stone forest rose a lot. The hull, which was stranded and crooked, slowly stood up because of the rise in the water level. The ship floated again on the sea surface, but the wind and rain still showed no signs of a stop to decrease, and the waves swung very much.
The blind man came to Lu Weilin in a raincoat and shouted: "You go and rest, I'll take a while for you."
Lu Weilin shook his head and looked into the distance. As night fell, he could no longer see the scenery in the distance. Even the reefs nearby were blurred by the wind and rain. At first glance, they looked like towering giants.
The blind man yawned and said, "This ghost weather shouldn't be anyone coming."
Lu Weilin didn't think so. Since Luo Lie could think of raiding the other party, perhaps someone from the Hailong Gang had the same idea as them.
The blind man suddenly said, "Someone!"
Lu Weilin was stunned. He opened his eyes wide but did not see any suspicious images.
The blind man's eyes are naturally different from those of ordinary people. During the bright daylight, he is like a highly myopic person. He looks confused when he sees anything. He even has to use sunglasses to block the strong light to maintain normal vision. But at night, his eyesight changes like a complete transformation, and he can see the subtle changes in the dark night.
The blind man saw several black shadows floating in the sea. Although night fell and the sea water was as dark as ink, the figures in the sea still had a clear distinction between them and the surroundings. Of course, only the blind man could see clearly, and ordinary people could not discover them in time.
Lu Weilin looked in the direction pointed by the blind man and finally saw a blurry black dot in the sea. It was a pirate who happened to come out to breathe. Lu Weilin picked up the rifle and was not in a hurry to shoot. He waited patiently. When the head came out to breathe again, he decisively pulled the trigger.
The gunshot of the stormy night did not seem too obvious, but it seemed shocking to the pirates who were infiltrating. The pirates who were shot were next to Shao Wei.
The blind man reminded Lu Weilin: "Don't turn on the light!"
Zhang Changgong rushed over when he heard the movement and said loudly: "Listen to the people below. If you dare to keep approaching, I will cut off Hai Mingzhu's head and return it to you." His voice was loud and he sent it out from afar through Fengyu.
Shao Wei and others had just snorted halfway through the way. When they heard Zhang Changgong's words, they knew that their whereabouts were completely exposed. Shao Wei sighed secretly and issued an order to his subordinates to retreat! Only retreating was originally intended to rescue Hai Mingzhu without the other party's awareness, but it was exposed before they got close to the ship. This means that the entire infiltration plan failed.
If they persist in moving forward, infiltration will turn into a head-on confrontation. In this situation, they have no chance of winning at all, not to mention that Hai Mingzhu is still in the hands of others.
Lu Weilin did not take advantage of the victory and expanded the victory. Although he was a killer, he was not bloodthirsty, he found that he had changed unknowingly. This change came from the subtle influence of the people around him. He began to think that if there was no need to kill the other party, the real clever way was to solve the problem without a single shot and a bullet.
The blind man said, "Shoot and kill all these turtle grandsons!"
Lu Weilin observed the sea through the scope, and although his finger was placed on the trigger, he never fired.
The blind man said: "Be kind to the enemy is cruel to oneself."
Lu Weilin couldn't help laughing.
The blind man spat and said, "I laughed so hard, there will be times when you regret it."
Lu Weilin did not want to intensify the conflict between the two sides at this time. After all, they were short of manpower and Luo Lie was not sure what the situation was. For those who stayed behind the ship, the most important thing was to hold these pirates. The longer the time was, the better. Their first task was to leave here, rather than fight to the death with these pirates from the Sea Dragon Gang.
Hai Mingzhu also heard the movement outside in the cabin. When she heard Zhang Changgong want to cut off her head, she was both scared and angry. She felt that the most hateful person she had met in her life was Zhang Changgong. She wanted to blurt out, but when she swallowed the words back to her lips, Lao An's gloomy and terrifying face appeared in her mind. The person she was really afraid of was Lao An. The one who was the most murderous among these people was Lao An. If there was someone who would kill him without hesitation, Lao An was the first to be the one who was the one who would kill him without hesitation. 8)
