Chapter 56: An unexpected encounter They said, thank you.
Telling Bai Xi and Bai Miao to be careful is what Bai Yu always reminds them before leaving.
But in most cases, even if she left alone to do something, she wouldn't be away for too long, and she could be found anytime she wanted. But this time, because she needed to do a deal with Nancy, she would be away for a longer time.
However, after getting the cloth and warm grass quilt from Nancy, she returned to their residence in the magical plane as quickly as possible.
When she saw Bai Xi and Bai Miao in the magic plane, she knew that something must have happened at sea.
Before she could say anything, Bai Xi spoke up, "Not long after you left, a ship with a skull and crossbones flag approached. There were many people on board. I thought something was wrong, so I didn't meet up with them and brought Miaomiao here."
"Skull? Why is there a skull on a boat?" Bai Yu put down what he was holding and immediately asked, "Where did you hide? If we go back now, will we run into anyone?"
"The boat with the skull on it arrived suddenly, so I didn't dare waste time on it. But I also thought about the possibility of us having to go back, so I hid under the stairs. If there was no one near the stairs, we shouldn't run into anyone on our way back."
"Have they boarded the boat?" Bai Yu asked again.
Bai Xi nodded: "When we came here, we felt the ship rocking."
Bai Yu frowned. "So those people must have bad intentions. Otherwise, why would they just casually board someone else's boat without even saying hello? But we still don't know much about them. When we attack, be gentle and don't kill them."
As she spoke, she picked up two metal sticks from the side and handed one to Bai Xi.
She asked again, "Is it okay?"
Bai Xi held the stick and asked, "How much strength is considered weak?"
"One tenth of your normal strength?" Bai Yu wasn't entirely sure. After saying that, he felt the force might be a bit too much, so he adjusted the ratio. "Use as little as possible. If you can't knock them out in one blow, try again. Try it on those people directly, okay?"
Bai Xi nodded immediately.
The two of them took Bai Miao's hand and told her, "Miao Miao, after we go out later, you should come back here and stay. It will take about an incense stick of time before you return to the boat, okay?"
Bai Miao nodded obediently: "I know."
Having said that, the three of them returned to the boat holding hands.
There was no one at the stairs, but standing at the bottom of the stairs, you could hear the sound of people going up and down. Obviously, those people really treated their boat as if it had no owner.
Bai Miao returned to the forest plane.
Bai Yu and Bai Xi looked at each other, then walked out one after another holding metal sticks.
When they reached the outside of the stairs and were about to split up, someone came in from the cabin.
The man opened his mouth to shout, but Bai Yu raised his stick and hit him on the back of the head with minimal force, but just this one blow was enough to make him fall to the ground.
She stepped forward and put her hand under his nose.
"Not dead yet, Creek. Our minimal strength will be enough."
"Well, I'll go upstairs. This house has just been upgraded and we can't let anyone dirty it." Bai Xi said, looked up, and walked up the stairs holding the stick.
At the same time, Bai Yu also walked out of the cabin door with a stick in his hand.
As soon as the two men took action, they were discovered by people patrolling up and down.
Almost at the same time, someone pointed at the two of them and spoke.
Bai Yu took action directly.
Bai Xi frowned, "I don't know what they're saying. It's even harder to understand than the words from the magical plane."
As she was speaking, someone pointed a knife at her, turned around and said something to the people behind him, and everyone burst into laughter.
Bai Xi didn't understand what they were saying, but he could see their obscene expressions. He immediately picked up the stick in his hand, rushed to the nearest person, and hit him with the stick.
The others reacted and raised their knives.
But before they could do anything, Bai Xi moved among the group of people and hit each of them with a stick.
After knocking these people down, she opened the window on one side of the cabin and saw Bai Yu jumping onto the skeleton ship parked nearby. There were also people on the ship next door, but none of them were Bai Yu's match.
Bai Xi looked for a while, then turned around, picked up the cloth on the back of the neck of one of the people on the ground, and dragged the person down the stairs.
Then these people were piled on the deck together with those who were knocked unconscious by Bai Yu.
At this time, Bai Yu had also dealt with the people on the boat next door and threw them onto the deck as well.
"Sister, is there anything next door?"
"Apart from these people, there are only a few boxes of cargo. There are still traces of seals on the cargo. They must have robbed it," Bai Yu said from the deck of the neighboring ship. "Xiaoxi, you keep an eye on them. I'll walk around and see if I can find anything."
Bai Xi nodded: "Okay."
Bai Yu was walking on the boat next door again.
This ship flying a skull and crossbones flag did not have three decks, but its overall hull was much larger than theirs, and it could hold a lot of things.
Bai Yu had previously focused on these crew members and did not look closely. Now she walked around and looked around the ship inside and out. When she walked to the bottom cabin, she found a small compartment and reached out to knock on it.
There was no sound from inside.
She looked at the padlock hanging on the compartment, exerted force with her hands, and pulled the padlock off.
Then she took a half step back, rushed towards the cubicle with the stick in hand, and opened the door.
Unexpectedly, the people lying in the small compartment were not crew members, but three half-dressed women with almost no good look on their bodies.
Faced with the sudden appearance of Bai Yu, the three of them just stared blankly with lifeless eyes, as if they had long been gone from this world. The two sides looked at each other for a while, and the three of them still had no reaction.
Bai Yu didn't say anything either.
It's not that she doesn't understand some things, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen in front of her.
From childhood to adulthood, she has been living with her parents on the boat. After her parents left, although the three sisters' lives were difficult, they were not desperate. Even though they believed in it every day, they still had the hope of having enough food and drink, and thought that one day they would be able to live a good life.
Living on the boat, the outsiders she came into contact with were very limited. Even if she happened to hear about the dangers of the world, it did not leave much impression in her heart.
But now, just looking at the numb eyes of the three people in front of her, she felt despair.
Bai Yu sighed softly, turned around and went up to the deck, and spoke to Bai Xi across from him: "Xiao Xi, go to the house and get three sets of my clothes. There are three women downstairs, and it looks like they have been locked up down there all the time."
Bai Xi's eyes suddenly widened, and after he came to his senses, there was a bit of sadness in his eyes. He quickly went to the second floor and took Bai Yu's three sets of clothes.
They can only wear Bai Yu's clothes.
Bai Yu took the clothes and went down to the bottom cabin again. He handed the clothes to the three people who had stayed in the compartment even though the door was open and had not come out. Then he pointed upwards and gestured for them to change their clothes and go up there.
Back on the deck again, Bai Yu looked at the unconscious people with a bit more disgust in his eyes.
Listening to Bai Yu talking about the situation in the cubicle below, Bai Xi talked about what happened just now: "Although I don't understand what they are saying, their expressions are disgusting. It is obvious that this is not the first time they have done evil."
"Who were those people upstairs just now?" Bai Yu asked her.
Bai Xi pointed out a few people.
Bai Yu returned to the boat and got a few bundles of hemp rope from the bottom. He handed one end to Bai Xi and said, "Miao Miao is still young. You can't let her see this kind of thing. Tie her up and throw her into the water. Don't forget to tie her tightly."
"Are your hands and feet tied?"
"If their hands and feet are tied together, are they definitely unable to break free?" Bai Yu asked.
Bai Xi observed it for a moment and nodded, "Yeah, and this way we can use less hemp rope."
The two men did as they said and quickly tied up the hands and feet of several people, then picked them up and threw them into the sea.
They didn't throw all of them into the sea. They left a few people behind. When Bai Miao came back from the magic plane, they splashed water on one of them to wake him up and tried to communicate with him about the situation.
But unfortunately, after waking up, everyone gave them a ferocious look and shouted words they couldn't understand.
Bai Yu and Bai Xi had never heard of what these people said, but there were similar pronunciations in the books of the new dimension. Bai Miao had read them and remembered the general meaning, but after all, the book contained text, so no matter how hard she tried to translate, she could only translate the meaning of a few words.
These words were not meant to be kind, they were nothing more than threats and inducements, but judging from their expressions, if they were really released, they would not be in trouble, but it was very likely that someone else would be in trouble.
"Sister, these people look like they have killed people, just like the previous few people. It doesn't look good." Bai Xi frowned.
"It shouldn't be like that," Bai Yu noticed the knives around these people at this time, "You see, there are some dark marks on those knife mountains. If nothing unexpected happens, they should be bloodstains."
Bai Xi took one of the knives, examined it carefully, and said, "It's similar to the situation when we killed a pig and didn't clean the axe marks. Do we still want to keep them alive?"
"If I had known this would happen, I would have used more strength," Bai Yu said, standing still. "Xiaoxi, take Miaomiao into the cabin. I'll take care of these people."
"Let's throw it into the water." Bai Xi suggested.
Bai Yu nodded: "Yeah."
They couldn't understand what the pirates were saying, and they couldn't understand what they were saying either. So it wasn't until Bai Yu tied up one of them, lifted him up and threw him into the water that these pirates reacted and started crying for mercy.
At this time, Bai Yu no longer had the heart to listen to what they said. He tied the ropes that bound their hands and feet tightly one by one, and threw them out with varying degrees of force, making them fall in different positions, completely cutting off their ability to save each other.
Just like that, Bai Yu tied everyone's hands and feet and threw them into the water.
After the last person was thrown over, there was movement near the cabin of the skeleton ship.
Bai Yu turned around and saw that the three people who had numb eyes just now were kneeling with tears in their eyes and kowtowed to her one after another, shouting something loudly.
Bai Xi heard the sound and came out holding Bai Miao.
Bai Miao listened carefully and translated for the two: "They said thank you, and also said that many of their family members died at the hands of these... beasts... Now they are saying that they haven't seen the light of day in a long time."
Bai Yu turned around and looked at the people floating up and down in the distance.
"Isn't it too easy for them to die like this? Should we just fish it out and throw it away again?"
