Chu Jinjin was startled. Why did he vomit? She quickly came over and patted his back: "What's wrong? You don't faint at the sight of blood, do you?"
Zhan Qin doesn't faint at the sight of blood, so he must be pregnant and can't bear to see stimulating scenes. He held back with difficulty and urged, "Don't worry about me, hurry up and chase after the Black Dragon. He ran in that direction. Be careful he doesn't jump into the sea to escape."
"Together." Chu Jinjin was worried. The ship was in a mess right now, with Black Dragon's men everywhere. She didn't want Zhan Qin to get hurt.
The two of them rushed forward down the corridor.
Black Dragon's warships represent the pinnacle of what this era could achieve. The rooms are one after another, and the decorations are luxurious. If it weren't for the shaky ground, it would be easy to feel like you're in a mansion.
Everything happened very quickly. Many of the henchmen didn't know what was going on. They ran out when they heard the commotion, saw two unfamiliar faces, and rushed up to attack.
Chu Jinjin handed Zhan Qin a steel knife and charged ahead herself.
This was the first time Zhan Qin had seen Chu Jinjin fight so closely. The figure in front of him looked thin, but it was like a thin stone slab, blocking the wind from all directions.
His wife is so cool!
Zhan Qin steadied himself: "Let's go check the kitchen first."
The black dragon must have left suddenly to do something.
Knowing that Black Hawk Stronghold and Jinjin had arrived, he should understand that there was no possibility of victory. So, would it be better to first engage in a mutually destructive battle?
Try to escape in the chaos?
Ahead of her stood a henchman who was easily over six feet tall, so tall that Chu Jinjin had to look up at him. She jumped up and punched him so hard that his face was covered in blood. Then, she held a blade to his throat: "Where did Black Dragon go? Either die or tell me."
"I'll talk, I'll talk." The 1.9-meter-tall man instantly cowered like a kitten, kneeling directly on the ground. "I don't know. I was sleeping in the house just now. I heard a noise and ran out, but I didn't see anything."
The warship has three decks and carries several hundred people, but news of its arrival has not yet come.
Chu Jinjin then asked, "Where is the kitchen?"
She still understands common sense.
Unlike later generations, this ship was almost entirely made of wood, and even the slightest spark would reduce it to ashes in an instant, so fire prevention should be the top priority.
The leader of the Black Dragon Hall wouldn't possibly carry a tinderbox around with him all the time.
The burly man pointed cautiously ahead: "Go to the end, then go down the stairs."
Chu Jinjin slit his throat with a single stroke.
The kitchen was located at the very bottom of the boat, near the waterline, to facilitate firefighting.
Zhan Qin's guess was correct.
Before we even got close, we could hear a commotion.
"Boss, what are you doing? Don't start a fire!"
"Ah, has the boss gone mad?"
The henchmen on this ship were all trusted confidants who had followed Black Dragon for many years. Even the cooks were terrified when they saw Black Dragon pick up a tinderbox to start a fire.
Good heavens, this is terrible!
Once a fire starts, it's very difficult to extinguish. And this place is already far from the shore. Not everyone can swim back. Besides, there are too many accidents: leg cramps, encountering sharks, sudden changes in wind speed.
They assumed Heilong was drunk or had been provoked, so they rushed forward, snatched the tinder, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it.
Black Dragon: "......."
The battle took place on the second-floor deck, and the warship was well-insulated, so the sounds of the fighting from the kitchen were not heard.
Heilong had no choice but to explain now, and hurriedly said, "Get out of the way! Chu Jinjin and the people from Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold have already attacked. You need to go up and help them quickly."
Normally, the henchmen would immediately obey orders.
But listen to what they're saying!
The cook blinked: "Boss, what are you saying?"
What a joke! When the boss boarded the ship, he was on the deck. Seeing that the boss had brought people back, he figured they were going to have a big celebration, so he came back ahead of time to prepare.
So how long has it been before Black Hawk Mountain stronghold attacked, flying down from the sky?
You have to understand that the sea is not like land, so it's impossible to hide people there. Also, ships have limited speeds, so it takes a long time to get close from where you can see them from afar.
This is common sense at sea.
Others thought the same thing.
They fear the black dragon, but they fear death even more—being burned or drowned—unless there is a good reason.
Black Dragon gave his reason: "You bastards, let me go! There's a ball in the sky, and they jumped down from it."
The henchmen looked at each other in bewilderment and quickly reached a consensus: Could it be that their boss had taken some kind of aphrodisiac and was hallucinating?
We can't let him burn the ships!
Black Dragon: "......."
That's how many things are; you can never predict how they'll develop.
Chu Jinjin kicked the door open and saw Heilong being held tightly, with his henchmen pleading or earnestly advising him.
"Boss, wake up! Don't jump! You're not a fish, you'll drown!"
"I can't control myself anymore, please help me."
"Close the windows and hide the tinder."
"Don't be afraid, let's all go together. Once the boss wakes up, he won't blame us."
The main problem is that what the black dragon said was too absurd to believe.
Hearing the door open, they turned around, their already confused minds becoming even more muddled.
Chu Jinjin was covered in blood, all of it from others, and held a steel knife in her left hand, looking like a demon who had stepped out of hell.
"Thank you everyone. I was worried that Boss Black Dragon had run away." Chu Jinjin almost burst out laughing; she had a pretty good idea of what had happened.
Black Dragon looked utterly desperate; his last chance to escape was gone.
Thirty thousand Northern Army soldiers, Jie Du of Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold, and even the imperial guards were no match for him; none of them were stronger than this pirate captain.
Black Dragon was so angry he was in despair: "Now do you believe me? She is Chu Jinjin."
With the real person right in front of him, one had no choice but to believe it. One of the henchmen muttered, "How did you get here?"
Chu Jinjin was in a great mood and pointed up to the top, saying frankly, "It flew down."
According to the information, Heilong is an excellent swimmer. To prevent him from escaping, the hot air balloon's sharpshooter stayed behind to keep a close watch on him.
Just then, the sound of strong footsteps came, and Jie Du also rushed over.
Pirates spend most of their time on ships, are good swimmers, but their martial arts skills are only so-so. Facing a master like him is like a wolf among sheep.
Either they die, or the survivors jump ship to escape.
Jie Du said calmly, "Black Dragon, I have long admired your name. I am Jie Du from Black Shadow Mountain Village."
This name was no less intimidating than Chu Jinjin's, and everyone, including Heilong, felt a slight chill.
Black Dragon barely managed to calm himself: "Jie Du, we've always kept to ourselves, and I've never thought of dealing with you. Why do this?"
“I need money to deal with the zombie army in the Northern Desert, I need a lot of money.” Jie Du maintained basic politeness towards him. “Boss Black Dragon, two conditions: first, death; second, hand over all your wealth and submit to my Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold.”
The capture seemed to go smoothly, but the main reason was actually due to Chu Jinjin and the hot air balloon. Black Dragon's true strength was far greater than that, but he just hadn't had the chance to use it.
