Heilong readily agreed: "Okay, I want to live, and I'm willing to bring my brothers to join Chief Jie."
Something unusual must be going on.
Jie Du didn't say anything. After a while, the fat and thin brothers came in with the others and tied up all the survivors first.
Next came the search.
Chu Jinjin didn't want to move, probably because of her pregnancy. She was listless and not as energetic as before. She went to the third floor with Zhan Qin. Not many people had died there, and the deck was clean. The two sat down casually and chatted quietly while enjoying the sea view.
Upon receiving the signal, another hot air balloon carrying people arrived, and Black Hawk Mountain Village took control of the entire ship.
An hour later, someone came to invite Chu Jinjin and Zhan Qin.
They've searched everywhere; there's a lot of money, including banknotes, cash, and various jewelry, totaling several million taels.
However, how could the mighty Black Dragon King only possess such meager wealth?
Heilong said confidently, "That's really all, Chief Jie. Don't be fooled by how much money I make; I have so many brothers under my command, and my expenses are huge."
Jie Du spared his life out of long-term considerations. He had his eye on Black Dragon's naval power, something Black Eagle Stronghold lacked. In case Black Eagle Stronghold held out to the bitter end, this would provide an extra escape route.
Are you going to use forced confessions?
Despite his preference for men, Black Dragon is actually ruthless and cruel. He has the dignity and bottom line of a powerful figure, and torture may not necessarily yield any information.
Heilong understood this as well, and became more and more relaxed. When he saw Chu Jinjin and the other person come in, he said with a grin, "Zhan Lang, you've really made things difficult for me. I thought I had met the man I could spend my life with, but I never expected that you'd come to take my life."
Without saying a word, Chu Jinjin went up and slapped him hard across the face: "Keep yelling, I'll slap you every time you yell, let's see if your mouth is tougher than my slap."
Zhan Qin just told her.
Both of them felt that the name Zhan Lang was tainted, and that from now on, whenever they called him that, they would think of Black Dragon's dark and greasy face.
Jie Du grinned, a direct slap in the face.
“Miss Chu, I really envy you for being able to have a man like Zhan Lang.” Black Dragon was tied up, and of course, he couldn’t escape even if he wasn’t tied up. His face immediately swelled up, but he still grinned. “But thinking about it, it makes sense. Only Zhan Lang is worthy of you.”
Chu Jinjin couldn't bring herself to do it; it seemed like a compliment.
Anyway, it made me feel quite comfortable.
“Black Dragon King, a wise man knows when to yield. I don’t need to say more about the current situation. The Northern Desert zombie army is my enemy in the whole world. You can’t escape unscathed either.” Zhan Qin said solemnly, “You can’t run away. Rather than suffer, why not sincerely surrender to Chief Jie? When the world is at peace, you will naturally get credit. If you want to come back here, no one will stop you.”
Black Dragon chuckled, "What Zhan Lang says is true. How about this: after Miss Chu goes to marry a foreign ruler, you and I will stay together?"
Chu Jinjin immediately flew into a rage: "Don't waste your breath on him."
This guy's a tough nut to crack; he won't shed a tear until he sees the truth, and persuasion is useless.
A fierce glint flashed in Black Dragon's eyes: "Miss Chu, do whatever you want. I, Black Dragon, have lived to this day and enjoyed all the blessings I could. I've slept with countless men and have no regrets. Kill me or do whatever you want."
"I won't kill you, just wait." Chu Jinjin turned and left.
This ship is Black Dragon's home. It rarely docks. Black Dragon himself can go ashore whenever he wants, but his henchmen can't; they have to stay on the ship most of the time.
A bunch of inhuman pirates, how can they survive without women?
On the lower deck, there were more than a dozen women imprisoned, including respectable women and prostitutes who had been tricked into coming here specifically to serve these beasts.
Even so, they might not survive. They might get tired of being played with or fall ill, and in order to protect the secrets of the warship, they might be thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
All those who came from Black Hawk Mountain Stronghold this time were men. Normally, there are strict rules for crossing the river: if you want to get married, you have to do it yourself. If anyone is found forcing a respectable woman, they will be killed without exception.
Therefore, they all still maintain the basic principles of being human.
A group of women, barely clothed, were at a loss for what to do, so they simply told them to stay put until they were done with their work.
Chu Jinjin opened the door, and a foul smell immediately hit her.
The women screamed in terror. They knew something terrible had happened on the warship, but so what? A pirate and a bandit were no better than anyone else; it was just a matter of jumping from one fire pit into another.
Let's think about how to survive first.
In this short time, they have been doing their best to groom themselves.
The pirates treated them only as tools for their venting, as animals. They preferred their clothes to be tattered, not to mention any other adornments.
Some people gritted their teeth and broke open their wounds, squeezing out blood to smear on their lips as rouge; their greatest asset now was their bodies.
You need to look good to survive.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was a woman who had entered, but he dared not beg.
This is no ordinary woman; look at the blood all over her body.
"Don't look at me like that. My name is Chu Jinjin, and I'm from the capital. Once the warship docks, you'll be allowed to leave safely." Chu Jinjin had seen similar scenes in the apocalypse, and she got straight to the point.
A person's name is like the shadow of a tree.
A woman asked tremblingly, "Chu, Chu Jinjin, are you the one who rescued my father from Black Eagle Mountain Stronghold?"
Chu Jinjin nodded readily: "Yes."
The atmosphere instantly became less dull.
The women dared not speak, exchanging silent glances.
There are so few new things in this era. Suddenly, Chu Jinjin appears. Storytellers have almost worn out the story. Of course, a lot of artistic embellishment has been added, but no matter how bizarre the content is, Chu Jinjin is portrayed as a chivalrous woman of great righteousness.
Chu Jinjin said seriously, "Now I'm giving you a chance to get revenge. Black Dragon won't say where the stuff is hidden, can you help me? It's okay if you don't."
Upon hearing this name, the women instinctively shrank back, but their eyes were filled with anger.
It's true that the Black Dragon likes men, and he has never harmed them, but without him, how could they have ended up in such a state?
But is this an attempt to coerce a confession?
They don't seem to know either.
A slightly older woman, who looked like a prostitute, suddenly chuckled softly. She maintained her habit of flattering people, her eyes full of seductive charm: "Miss Chu, bring him here. I guarantee I can find out where his ancestors for eighteen generations are buried."
Chu Jinjin had been waiting for these words.
Everyone has things they fear.
Heilong remained defiant: "Miss Chu, where are you taking me? To tear my hair? I won't fight you for Zhan Lang, okay?"
He's now acting with impunity; as long as he doesn't say anything, no one will dare to do anything to him.
Besides, losing one's freedom and becoming someone else's pawn is worse than dying a quick death.
It wasn't until they reached the bottom deck that he started to panic. When he was pushed in front of the door, his expression finally changed drastically: "What are you going to do?"
The door opened, and the prostitute who had volunteered pulled him out by the arm, smiling as if she were welcoming a customer: "Sir, you've arrived."
