Chapter 205: Sacrifice Flag, Secret Weapon
The incense of worshiping the East China Sea Dragon King Cangning De King Ao Guang has darkened the small harbor on the coast of Tieshan.
The bronze statue of King Guangde, more than ten feet tall, moved from the Dragon King Temple worshipped by the thief's cave and stood on the shore. Below the Dragon King's golden body of the East China Sea, there is also a row of sea gods worshipped by coastal people, namely the fairy dressed in a young woman in Huaxin, two kind-hearted old men, Liu Gong and Liu's mother, there are also whales called Yulang or Lao Zhao, and sea turtles that are respectfully called Lao Shuai.
These are all sea gods worshipped by people on the coast. The Dragon King of the East China Sea is the main one. Fairy and Liu Gong and Liu Mu are the messengers of the Dragon King. Whale and sea turtle are the generals of the Dragon King. When they encounter whales on the sea, they are called dragon soldiers. According to fishermen, when passing by dragon soldiers, the vanguard officer who escorted food and grass, and the shrimps. They escorted groups of yellow croakers and turtles. The vanguard officer acted as a guard of ceremonies behind the guard of ceremonies, and the yakshas behind the guard of ceremonies. The Dragon King was sitting in a coral cart pulled by ten seahors. The Prime Minister of the Turtle was on the left side of the car, and there were four big whales on both sides of the car, commonly known as gunners, and they were fired. When fishermen fished in the sea, they would stop their work and hold sacrificial rituals when they met dragon soldiers.
Fishermen and pirates respect sea turtles the most at sea. It is said that sea turtles are good at changing and can bring good fortune to people. Therefore, fishermen are allowed to catch sea turtles when working, but they must not offend sea turtles. Fishermen say that they sometimes climb on the Internet, which seems to be only the size of a bowl, but after entering the water, they become larger than a millstone in the blink of an eye. Whenever they see sea turtles, they not only have to burn incense and paper, but also kowtow to pray. People at sea are taboo to say turtles, calling them "old man", "old man", and "old man". Some habits also come from them. For example, when fishing boats get anchor, they must first shout: "Give it - anchor!" After shouting, stop for a while and then lift the anchor into the sea. It is said that they are afraid of hurting sea turtles, so they ask them to avoid it.
These gods were all one-eyed dragons who asked craftsmen to use copper to shape their bodies, and then used gold po to close their bodies. Their appearance looked golden and majestic. Unfortunately, these gods did not bless him, and in the end he died in Shamen Town. When Zhendonghai captured the thief's cave, he immediately searched for the Dragon King Temple and was shocked when he saw these gods. The pirates all knelt down and no one dared to desecrate the sea god.
"Bless the Dragon King!" The yellow bearded man and thousands of people knelt on the ground in front of these sea gods in black crows.
"Is the Dragon Prince really powerful? The one-eyed dragon has created a golden body for him and has worshipped him day and night. How come he has never seen him blessed him?" Duan Shan of the special forces team is not a coastal person. He does not understand the worship and worship of the sea gods by the coastal people. He does not know that the fishermen on the coast most admire the sea gods, and the pirates walking on the sea are even more pious.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Huang bearded son interrupted Duan Shan's words of blasphemy of the sea god, "Be pious in front of the Dragon King, so that he will bless you." Duan Shan is a good general, and he always rushed to the front when fighting. He is also generous. It's just a pity that he always lacks the aura of the sea man. People who are not even afraid of the Dragon King are not suitable for walking on the sea. However, he is the representative sent by Li Jing, and this identity makes him unable to reprimand him. He remembered the decision and arrangement of his elder brother. Maybe they really need to wash their hands and go ashore. He no longer becomes this desperate pirate, but joins Li Jing's command? Although the sea is free, a pirate like the one-eyed dragon who is once glorious, even if he is shaped into the golden body of the sea god and worships the sea god, he ends up with a dead end, and even a group of old, weak, women and children cannot protect their families.
Thousands of pirate families on the shore were also ordered to kneel down to worship, but there was no need for the people in the East China Sea to maintain order. These prisoners were all full of devotion to the statue of the sea god and recited and prayed.
Huang Huzi brought everyone to worship the sea gods one by one, "The Dragon King Ao Guang of the East China Sea is here, and we humble believers worship us piously. Please come and bless us and bless us to win this battle. After victory, we will worship the gods forever, build temples and altars for the gods, and offer incense forever!"
For pirates, the Dragon King and Fairy Gods on the sea have special significance. Before going to sea, they always worship the Dragon King of the East China Sea. When a new ship is launched, they will worship the Dragon King even if they return with a full load. If the pirate’s wives are pregnant, they will worship the Fairy God. If someone marryes them, they will worship Liu Gong and Liu Mu. When encountering a storm at sea, they will burn incense, paper, kowtow and pray, and worship Lao Shuai and Lao Zhao.
Now a great war is coming. Even for the Yellow Beard and other pirates who were born in the pirate den and have been around for most of their lives, it will be an unprecedented war. When he thinks of the dozens of warships and thousands of soldiers of the Feng family, he can't help but feel nervous.
This is an adventure. If the eldest brother is still in charge, how would he choose? Huang Huzi knew that the eldest brother would definitely choose to fight. This was originally a battle belonging to Li Jing, but he handed the battle to Zhen Donghai. Huang Huzi felt that this was a test for Li Jing and an opportunity to accept the title of honor. After this battle, Zhen Donghai and Shamen Town must have a closer relationship. At that time, they were really Li Jing's family.
Is this worth doing? Before leaving, he asked Whitebeard. The old leader's answer was worth it, and no matter how great the price was, it was worth it. Their ancestors had been either horse thieves, bandits and pirates, but in the end there had never been a good end. The brothers under him were desperate at sea, licking blood at the tip of a knife, and finally survived until old age. The only ones who were disabled in the early battles were disabled. The braver pirates were the ones who died sooner than they could die. One day, one would be a thief for life, and one would be a thief for generations. Whitebeard wanted to give his descendants a different future, so he could only do this. He could trust others, but Li Jing was a trustworthy person.
However, if you really want the descendants of the pirates to have a better background in the future and avoid the death of the storm, the premise of all this is that Li Jing can go further. If veto, everything is just a phantom. At the moment, the most important thing is to help Li Jing win this battle.
The old leader has stayed in Shamen Town with hundreds of brothers to support his retirement. His daughter Megan and the third leader's daughter Julie have also become commanders of the Li Jing fleet, commanding the warships of the official army as the pirate daughter. He is even looking forward to one day his daughter will marry Li Jing as a concubine. He hopes that in the tall town of Shamen Town, there is a small courtyard with blue bricks and green tiles belonging to him.
All of these must be given by Li Jing, and all they will pay is the loyalty of the pirates. Perhaps the casualties in this battle will be very serious, but as long as they win, they will win a better future.
Now he needs the blessing of the gods and good luck, to bless him and Li Jing.
Countless blue smoke burning incense filled the shore, swelling and twisting. The wind blew the smoke and covered everyone's heads. The people present were shrouded in smoke. Although they were uncomfortable breathing, they were extremely happy. The cigarette was shrouded in it, which was the most auspicious sign, and the gods were blessing them.
The yellow beard was covered with dark red leather armor, and the long blood-red cloak on his shoulders. The blazing flames were burning in his eyes, as if the fire of war was burning. He drew his sword and shouted: "Cigarettes cover my body first. This is the response of the gods to our devout prayer. He will always bless me. Brothers, draw out your swords and swords and prepare for battle!"
Red Beard and Black Beard drew their swords at the same time and shouted in unison. In fact, the pirates raised all kinds of weapons and shouted in unison.
All the pirates were ignited to fight, and Huang Beard took the opportunity to bring dozens of important prisoners left behind in the one-eyed dragon's nest. They were all the leaders or the family members of the leader. Among them, the three-year-old son and young concubine of the One-eyed Dragon were also brought up.
"Behead them and sacrifice the flag!"
With a loud roar, dozens of burly pirate men walked forward with big swords on their necks and cut off their heads with one knife. The black skull banner in Zhendonghai was held in front, and the executioners took the cut heads and dripped blood on the white skull pattern on the banner, dyeing it red.
"Blood sacrifice skeleton banner, the flag is open and the flag is open and the flag is opened and the yellow beard raised up the long flag is shouting loudly, the pirates shouted in unison, "The flag is opened and the flag is opened and the victory is opened!"
The black skeleton banners stood up, and the incense dedicated to the gods burned to the end. Huangbeard ordered all the prisoners to be taken on the ship and the statue of the sea god was also moved onto the ship. When the pirates got on the ship one after another, Blackbeard stared at the warship and said, "Can we win?"
"Yes, victory belongs to us." Huang Beard also stared at the warship.
"But the price will definitely be very high, is this worth it?" Red Beard said on the side.
"No matter how expensive it is, it is a must. This path is our own choice, right?"
"Yes."
All three of them fell silent.
After the silence, Huang Huzi called Duan Shan, "Brother Duan, the battle is about to begin. You should give us the decisive things that General Ji Yu asked you to bring." When he went out to sea, Li Jing told Huang Huzi that he had a batch of secret weapons and handed them over to Duan Shan to carry, and said that these weapons were very powerful and could play a decisive role if used well. However, he did not tell him what the weapon was on the spot. After arriving in Tieshan, these things were always on the ship of the special forces team, and the guards were strictly guarded. Although Huang Huzi was looking forward to it, he had no way to see it.
"It's time to take it out for you to see, but don't be surprised." Duan Shan's ferocious head, which was as ferocious as a leopard, shook his grin.
This batch of secret weapons had long been transferred to the shore by Duan Shan, and was stored in a hidden cave on the shore. Outside the entrance of the cave was the temporary camp of the special forces, and more than a dozen tents surrounded the entrance.
When he entered the cave, what he saw were rows of neatly stacked willow wood boxes. Duan Shan gently hugged a box, as careful as if he was holding a young baby. This action made Huang Huzi and others even more curious about this secret weapon. What kind of weapon does it actually require so much caution?
