Remembering what the old man in the fishing village said, the pirates used to come ashore from time to time. They not only robbed the fishermen of their food and the meager savings they had worked so hard to accumulate, but also harmed women. Those who resisted were killed, and the young and pretty ones were forcibly abducted.
That's not all; when they leave, they set fire to the fishermen's houses.
The old man said that in those years, most of the villagers who could leave had left, and those who remained were mostly the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled.
It was only after General Mu arrived and quelled the pirates several times that the pirates dared not come ashore to cause trouble again, and the villagers gradually returned.
Hong Xiaoduo imagined the suffering of the fishermen, and for some reason, she thought of the Japanese soldiers who invaded my country back then.
Therefore, at this moment, she even considered whether to use a sword directly.
When dealing with such vicious pirates who don't care about other people's lives, why worry about whether someone will die?
Besides, she has already committed murder!
When her hand touched the hilt of the sword, she thought again, "Wouldn't it be too bloody for the children to see if I used a sword?"
While struggling with her dilemma, she suddenly thought of the lives of those dozen or so bandits last time, all she had used were stones and whips!
Then she continued with the whip, raising it and cracking it in the air. "With such skill, why not rid the people of this scourge?"
The six pirates opposite them stopped and looked at the person in front of them in the moonlight. They could clearly see that it was a woman. Thinking of the information they had received during the day, they guessed that she was the one who did not have the aura of a martial artist, but had a sword at her waist.
The six pirates didn't take her seriously at all; they just found her amusing.
"Hey, didn't you say there was a kung fu guy? Where is he? Is he hiding? Did you let the young lady out?" one of the pirates said loudly, not caring at all about waking the others in the tent.
Anyway, we won't leave any useless people alive later.
Upon hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo frowned. These pirates were really arrogant.
"I can handle you petty scoundrels all by myself," Hong Xiaoduo said, while observing the others searching for their leader.
I wonder if the pirate captain is among these six people, perhaps on the big ship?
If only it were here, once you're here, you can forget about going back.
But if it were a large ship, she wasn't confident that after dealing with those six, she could still successfully board the ship to suppress the bandits.
Hong Xiaoduo's words elicited a burst of laughter from the other party.
"Young lady, you haven't heard of our boss's name, have you? The fearsome King of Hell of the Sea. To tell you the truth, we've come here specifically for you and another young lady."
"You'd better be smart and obediently take those other three young ladies back with us to enjoy yourselves, otherwise, if you anger our boss, you'll be in big trouble later," another pirate said.
Hong Xiaoduo was quite surprised to hear this. It turned out that they were coming for her and Fei Yan.
Thinking back on the past few days, there have been pedestrians passing by on the road. Perhaps there were spies of the pirates, or perhaps they sent people to look for opportunities and targets.
The other three young ladies—even Yuheng and Yaoguang have become targets now! These bastards!
After hearing these words, Hong Xiaoduo also had murderous intent.
She sneered, "You want me to go with you? You'd better see if you have the ability. A few months ago, there was a mountain bandit who wanted me to come up the mountain and be his wife. I sent him straight to the King of Hell."
By now, the grass on his grave must be quite tall.
“What the young lady said may be true, but it’s normal for a petty thief who occupies a small hill and calls himself the king of the mountain to fall into her hands,” one of the six men said.
Hong Xiaoduo had just noticed this person. He was not tall, and his voice sounded like he was in his forties or fifties. She couldn't see his face clearly.
The way he spoke... Hmm? Hong Xiaoduo felt that if this person wasn't the leader of this pirate gang, he was at least a big boss.
Hong Xiaoduo wanted to tell the other party that the petty thief he had just mentioned occupying a small hill was Bao Guangyong from Dalian Mountain.
But now there's something more important: "Since you've come for me, to take me to the island to enjoy life, has your boss come? I heard you were so scared by General Mu that you haven't dared to come ashore to do evil for many years?"
“Don’t listen to those villagers’ nonsense, you little wench. What do you mean by being scared and afraid to come ashore? We just think the fishermen are too poor and have no money to make, so we’re too lazy to bother with them.” One of the pirates got angry when her words hit a nerve.
"I have arrived," one of them said, taking two steps forward.
Upon hearing the voice and recognizing the figure, Hong Xiaoduo realized it was the same person who had just spoken of the petty thief from Zhanshanbao.
"You? And you call yourself the King?" Hong Xiaoduo wanted to confirm, so she deliberately used a questioning tone.
"Yes, I am their boss, Yu Yanwang, without a doubt." The more Yu Baoshan looked at the young woman in front of him, the more he liked her. She was very much to his liking. He really didn't like the dignified, demure young ladies from wealthy families.
Hong Xiaoduo remembered that although the old man in the fishing village never said what the pirate leader's surname was or given name, he did say that the pirate leader only had one ear.
So she took a few steps forward and looked at the other person up close, and sure enough, one ear was missing.
“I am of average appearance, but you will not suffer if you follow me.” Yu Baoshan saw that this young lady was not afraid of him at all, but instead came closer to look at his appearance, which made him feel that she was different from others.
He had no shortage of women on the island, but they were all afraid of him, making him quite boring.
Hong Xiaoduo asked curiously, "You only have one ear, where's the other one? Was it carried away by a seabird?"
When she asked the boss about ears, the other five pirates were all startled, thinking that the word "ears" was the one their boss was most sensitive about.
If someone feels that he is being stared at his ears, that person can forget about having eyes.
The eldest brother was highly skilled in martial arts, so it would be understandable if his ear had been injured by a more powerful opponent. However, that was not the case, because the eldest brother's ear was bitten off by a woman.
Many years ago, when they went ashore to plunder a fishing village, the gang leader raped a little girl who was not yet ten years old. When the little girl's mother returned, she wanted to fight the gang leader to the death, but she was also raped by the gang leader. Thinking that the woman had fainted, he was careless and had his ear bitten.
Some of the brothers witnessed the scene. It is said that the eldest brother stabbed the woman in the chest dozens of times with a dagger, and the woman bit off his ear before she died.
For the eldest brother, this was his greatest humiliation.
As it turns out, this young lady in front of me is courting death?
No matter how beautiful she is, the boss won't let her go. The five pirates seem to already envision this young woman being tortured to the point of wishing for death but unable to...
