Chapter 172

Many players were discussing what kind of pirates they encountered. Some said that the pirate ship they encountered was extremely simple, just a small sampan with a pirate flag hanging on it, and it came over to rob him.

He was so angry that he looked down on others and directly overturned the opponent's sampan. However, he did not kill them all, and threw a floating board and a boat paddle to the opponent.

Immediately, some players below said that he was too soft-hearted. Why should he spare the lives of such NPCs who had no good intentions towards him? At this time, he should have killed them ruthlessly.

Then this group of players had a heated discussion about whether or not to clear out the hostile NPCs. Those who thought they shouldn't clear out the NPCs thought that the enemy was too brutal. Even if they knew they were NPCs, they wouldn't kill them. As long as they could protect themselves, they would never kill anyone. They would definitely be good for the society.

Those who thought they should be cleared out thought they were just data, NPCs. The core of playing the game was to level up, kill monsters, and get equipment. It was not good to make yourself shine like the Virgin Mary.

Qiao Sheng also discussed this with Li Mu. They both felt that if they were not endangered, they would not kill all the enemies. The main reason was that the NPCs in this game were too anthropomorphic. They often put themselves into the game and could not kill people for no reason.

For the pirate flag, Li Mu even built a flagpole on the third-floor terrace. It was actually a bamboo pole with a flag-raising device installed on it. When they met pirates, they just raised the pirate flag. They

usually put it away to avoid hanging it up, otherwise other players would think they were pirates.

Because the rewards this time were all food materials, Qiao Sheng started to engage in processing business, because there were too many corns, sweet potatoes and potatoes. She

made a batch of sweet potato vermicelli with sweet potatoes, which was a huge consumption. Part of the corn was made into corn starch, and the other part was ground into cornmeal, which was placed in the food material box. It was good for making porridge and steaming vegetable dumplings.

She made some potato flour with potatoes and sent some to Xia Beibei and Fang Yueyi. After a little seasoning, the cassock cubs also enjoyed it very much.

She also considered putting these into the trading system to exchange for materials, but later she thought it was unnecessary. It would take manpower and seasonings, and she would not be able to exchange much after working for a long time. It was better to directly list the raw materials for cost-effectiveness.

So now Li Mu still puts orders for fishing in the trading system every day, the quantity is not large, as the weather gets warmer, the number of other players fishing also increases, their advantage is reduced a lot.

However, because of the existence of refrigerators and ring space, they did not stop stockpiling.

In just seven days, they encountered six pirate ships, two of which were fleets, and those ships were several times larger than Qiao Sheng's ships, four in a row, it looked quite intimidating.

At first, they were far away, and Qiao Sheng and his friends didn't notice it. It was Ah Dai who went out to teach Little Eagle to fly and found it. He came back and stood on the flagpole of the pirate flag and shouted.

They were also used to its warning. When they heard the sound, they immediately went upstairs to raise the flag. Not long after the flag was raised, they could see several large ships coming from the front.

Then something embarrassing happened. Several players' ships also drifted behind them. When everyone saw these pirate ships, it was too late to run.

Qiao Sheng and Li Mu quickly hid in the second-floor cabin and checked the situation outside through the cracks in the wooden windows.

Obviously, the pirate flag was very useful. Their ship was in the front, and the four pirate ships even made room for them to pass. The players behind them might have seen them pass safely, so they had an illusion and did not turn their ships around to run. They wanted to rush over with Qiao Sheng and his ship.

Before, their attention was on the pirate ship, and no one noticed the pirate flag raised by Li Mu.

The pirates were also very happy, because it was rare to see their ship rushing forward. When Qiao Sheng's ship passed, the five player ships behind were held down by the pirates.

"We have been drifting over very slowly, just to buy time for the ships behind. What are these people thinking? They are rushing into the muzzle of the gun. Isn't this just a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth!" Qiao Sheng ran to the stern of the ship, opened the wooden window and looked, and his head was enlarged.

"They probably thought that these pirates would not rob us because they saw that we passed safely." Li Mu stood aside and watched for a while and knew what was going on.

After their boat passed by, they didn't dare to leave too far. If this group of pirates really wanted to hurt people, they would definitely go up to help.

Fortunately, although this group of pirates was in large numbers, they only wanted money and didn't kill people.

But some players would rather sacrifice their lives than money. The pirates only asked them to hand over food and supplies, and they would let them go. But there was a man and a woman on the smallest boat. The woman was ready to hand over, but the man refused to hand over.

The pirates threatened again. The woman said to hand over, and the man said no loudly. The next second, a white light flashed, and there was only a female player who was held down and a few pirates left on the boat.

Seeing this, the players on the other four ships quickly handed over all their belongings. The female player on the smallest ship also handed over her belongings while crying and trembling.

The pirates didn't bother to ask for the food and supplies after getting them. They went straight back to their own ships and sailed away without any reluctance.

When the pirates were about to leave, Li Mu hurried to the third floor to lower the flag, but he was still a step too slow and was seen by the players on those ships.

I don't know which ship shouted that the pirates' minions must not be let go, and the five ships approached Qiao Sheng's ship at the same time.

This was obviously a situation where a scholar met a soldier and couldn't explain himself clearly. Qiao Sheng didn't even leave the cabin, but went directly down to the first floor and started the drive equipment with Li Mu.

That speed was simply not something that human rowing could keep up with. After a while, all that could be heard was the roar of helplessness coming from afar.

Qiao Sheng angrily grabbed You Su and rubbed him for a long time. As expected, some players just couldn't feel sorry for them. They were waiting there with good intentions, and wanted to help out in case of danger. Who could have thought that this would be the result.

Li Mu was usually very stable in his emotions, and he felt very upset when he encountered such a thing. After all, no one likes to be misunderstood.

The two were drinking tea in the cabin to cool down when they received messages at the same time. Qiao Sheng received a message from Xia Beibei, and Li Mu received a message from Pei Hong.

The messages were trying to convey a simple idea, the same central idea, that is, they were being hacked in the world channel.

Qiao Sheng opened the world channel and found out that this game can actually kill people. Seeing these contents, she almost pulled You Sumao off. Fortunately, the fox was smart and sensed the danger. It jumped off her legs the moment she grabbed its fur.

[30476: All players please note that a pirate has infiltrated the player group. He is a male, about 1.8 meters tall, with short hair, wearing a black sweater, and has bandages on his wrists. The ship has four floors, with two catapults at the front and back. There is a terrace at the bow, trees are planted on the second terrace, and there is a flagpole with a pirate flag on the third terrace. If any player sees him, please kill him immediately! This is a mob, and we must not tolerate him!]

The next seven or eight were the same, but the player IDs they posted were different. Xia Beibei estimated that he came to inform the player after seeing the description of the ship. Pei Hong was a good friend of 30476, and after listening to his detailed description of the appearance, he was sure it was Li Mu's.

The other party was willing to describe it to Pei Hong in his busy schedule, all because his fleet was large enough. Those who were blacklisted by his fleet had basically no chance of turning over. Who would have thought that he just wanted to confirm whether it was someone he knew so that it would be convenient to pass on the news.

"It's really giving them face. They even play the Jianghu Hunting Order. Isn't this just fanning the flames!" Qiao Sheng picked up the bamboo cup and took a big sip to calm down.

Li Mu's approach was very direct. He typed a long self-destructive message on the world channel.

【18: Regarding the players who incited public opinion, I have a few things to explain. First, I should be the pirate they are talking about. Second, I have the pirate flag as a reward for completing tasks. Third, I have recorded the above eight IDs and added them to the blacklist. From now on, I will refuse to trade with these people in the trading system. Finally, the innocent will be innocent. Players who think I have problems can also add me to the blacklist. As for killing me as soon as we meet, I dare to kill you if you dare to come! 】

【666: Taking a photo with the people above, another important information, my male god is 1.8 meters tall! Mighty and domineering! If you can't get the pirate flag, find out the reason for yourself. Have you tried hard! If you can't beat them, won't you run away? Blame my male god for being caught by pirates? After drifting on the sea for too long, has your brain become flooded?

Player No. 18 is still paying attention. Before he spoke, the world channel was divided into two camps. Some thought that the game was inhumane and how could pirates pretend to be players, while others thought that this situation was basically impossible.

His words were spread to the world, and now almost one side has fallen. Everyone said that 30476 was not authentic. He started to incite other players to kill innocent people without knowing the truth of the matter. He was simply insane.

"Is this considered a celebrity effect? ​​If it were any other player, these people would definitely have the opportunity to call a black cat a white cat. It's a pity that No. 18 is so popular among the players. It turns out that your previous work of selling fish at the lowest price was not in vain." Qiao Sheng felt helpless when he looked at the content of the world channel.

Li Mu was more direct. He took 100 fish and listed them one by one in the trading system. Then he posted a message on the world channel to thank all the players for their keen observation and not being influenced by certain people. He also told other players where his pirate flag came from.

He was quite careful, but he also made it clear to everyone that this method was dangerous. After all, he was a pirate. He had enough strength to dare to board the pirate ship. This method can only be used as a reference and is not universal.

It is not certain which pirate ship can have this kind of drop. He just took out his own sample for everyone to refer to. Whether to try it or not, whether it will succeed, is unknown.

Unexpectedly, all the players on the world channel thanked him for popularizing science. The weak ones said that they would flee as soon as they saw a pirate ship, and the strong ones said that they would try some small pirate ships, but of course they would still run away if they encountered a large fleet. For a while,

players all over the world were discussing how to get the pirate flag, and no one paid attention to those players who instigated public opinion.
