Chapter 318: Trick him into the village and chop him up
Su Nuan asked in confusion: "What do you mean by wearing a sieve?"
The space spirit said, "It's just that the souls of people from other time and space come to this world... and resurrect through corpses."
Su Nuan pondered carefully. The term "reincarnation" was more appropriate. Then what was she? Was she pretending to be dead?
She picked up the telescope and looked again. The ship's destination was very clear, which was the fishing village here.
She said, "They probably didn't notice who I was when I caused such a commotion in the fishing village last time, otherwise they would definitely be scared when I came this time."
The space spirit said, "Weren't you wearing a mask last time? People here are rather clueless. They can't recognize a woman in men's clothing, and they can't recognize the whole face if only half of the mask is on."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yeah, that's right."
She put down the telescope and looked back but couldn't see Su Xia anymore. She must have gone to inform the village chief.
Su Nuan asked, "Will these pirates come to burn, kill, and loot?"
The space spirit replied unhappily: "How should I know?"
Su Nuan touched her nose. It was pointless to ask, and she was even scolded.
She sat down again. It would take some time for the pirates to reach the shore.
But when she lowered her head, she found that most of the fish left on the grill was gone. No need to ask, it must have been eaten by the space spirit.
She began to clean up the grill and put the snails that were roasted but not eaten into the space for storage.
After packing up, Su Nuan placed the basket under the stone and secured it with a few small rocks.
All the villagers on the beach ran away, probably going back home to hide their things.
Su Nuan’s only worry now is that these pirates will disrupt her plan to catch human traffickers.
But things have come to this point and there is no choice.
Su Nuan could only sit on the reef and wait. Her intuition told her that the man who could blow kisses would not go on a killing spree.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the ship finally approached and launched six small boats, with a total of thirty people going ashore.
The man was wearing a black shorts with golden dragon embroidered on it, which looked quite strange.
He is quite good-looking, with a jade face, red lips and a jade crown on his head. If you only look at his upper body, you would mistake him for a nobleman from some family.
Behind him was a one-eyed man with disheveled hair, a face full of flesh, and a tan.
Further back were the crew members in gray shorts and black turbans.
Su Nuan looked at the man and asked, "Where does your distinguished guest come from?"
The man looked at Su Nuan and asked, "Madam, have we met before?"
A drop of sweat slid down Su Nuan's forehead. This man was definitely not from this world, because people in this world did not call a married woman "Ms."
But Su Nuan decided to play dumb, "What Madam? I've never met you before. Don't try to get close to me here. My husband's family will misunderstand."
The man was startled and asked, "But you have a telescope, right?"
Su Nuan didn't deny it, "Yes, I bought it from a merchant ship a while ago. Is there a problem?"
"I don't care if the person stole it or robbed it, as long as I buy it, it's mine."
The man chuckled, looking very pleased. "No, you misunderstood. This thing was made by me, but I'm sure the one in your hand wasn't made by me."
Su Nuan said nonchalantly, "I've studied this thing before. The lens inside can magnify distant objects. That's why the person who bought your telescope removed the lens and replaced it with an expensive shell so that they can sell it for a high price."
"You have to know that many people pay attention to appearance. The more luxurious and novel it looks, the more expensive it is."
The man was startled and slapped his forehead. "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? In the past, for convenience, the shells were all made of iron sheets, and many were made of bamboo."
"If I had known earlier, I should have used gold and silver and inlaid it with gemstones. Wouldn't it have sold for a sky-high price?"
After a pause, he said with a bitter face, "I'm not so poor that I have no research funds and have to become a pirate."
Su Nuan blinked. It turned out that this guy liked to invent things, but inventing was very expensive, so he became a pirate.
In this way, he won't kill people indiscriminately and he can put his mind at ease.
Su Nuan coughed dryly and asked, "What are you researching? Can you tell me about it?"
The man immediately said, "I'm making a compass, but we don't have magnets where we are. I want to use electricity to magnetize the iron needle, but the power system requires a lot of things."
Su Nuan had new knowledge in her mind, so she could understand what he said, but unfortunately she had to pretend not to understand.
"I don't understand, but the compass you're talking about is a needle that points south?"
The man nodded immediately, "Yes."
Su Nuan took out an embroidery needle from her backpack, rubbed it on her hair, and then placed it in the puddle on the ground.
"is that so?"
The man stared at the needle as if he wanted to melt it with his gaze.
After a long pause, the man slapped himself hard and said, "I'm so stupid! How could I forget that friction generates electricity?"
Su Nuan, "..." This guy is quite cruel, but fortunately he only hits himself and not others.
The man bowed deeply to Su Nuan and said, "Thank you for your advice, young lady."
Su Nuan shook her head. "This is something we played when we were little. But when we go out to sea, we always look at the stars. We can basically predict the weather within seven days."
"As long as you understand the weather, you won't get lost. At worst, you can just hide for a few days and wait for the stars to come out."
The man nodded. "But not everyone can read the stars. Oh, and we've been sailing for several days now. I'm nauseous from eating so much seafood. Is there anything to eat?"
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Yes, there are, but you can't bring so many people into the village, or you might get beaten to death."
The man smiled awkwardly, "I have weapons, but I have never killed anyone."
As he spoke, he lifted up his sleeves, revealing a crossbow that could fire five arrows.
Su Nuan took a look and said calmly: "This thing is nothing compared to Kung Fu. If you don't believe me, try it on me."
The man quickly shook his head, "No, no, no, what if I hurt you?"
Su Nuan looked at him with disdain, "How can you be a pirate if you're this timid? To be honest, I kind of look down on you."
The man scratched his head. "Well, I've never met anyone as brave as you."
Su Nuan, "..." It seems so. The villagers had already run away, and I was the only one here.
She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I won't bother with you, let's go."
After saying that, she looked at how many people the man was going to bring.
The man turned around and said to the one-eyed dragon, "Old Black, let's go. We'll bring them some bread and other things later."
"You guys stay here. Don't rush into the village. They must be prepared. Don't get ambushed and die unjustly."
Su Nuan raised her eyebrows. This guy is quite bold. Isn’t he afraid that she will trick him into the village and chop him up?
Lao Hei looked at Su Nuan and finally nodded, "It's trustworthy, let's go."
Su Nuan looked at Lao Hei in surprise, "You think I'm trustworthy?"
Lao Hei didn't say anything, his wooden face looked quite scary.
The man smiled and said, "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Wu Long, and I'm from the main city of Xihai Nation."
"Lao Hei has a great ability in judging people, so I trust him."
"What's your name, little sister? Can you tell me?"
Su Nuan was about to speak when a voice came from the sky. Feixue swooped down and looked like he was ready to fight Wu Long to the death. Did they have a grudge against each other?
