Human Shackles

The giant steam ship cut through the waves with a huge roar, and the waves it stirred up were like broken pearls. A large group of seabirds followed closely in the sky, and from time to time, crisp chirps were heard.

There was no smell of gunpowder smoke on the sea, and the world returned to harmony. Luo Kai stood on the bow of the ship, smelling the fresh sea breeze, and his thoughts entered a state of emptiness again.

The perfect ferocious beast is like a nuclear weapon, with unparalleled deterrence. Not only did humans dare not regain the lost territory, but it triggered a huge wave of exile, swarming towards other lord countries.

The limited military strength of the Xingma Kingdom all shrank back to the Jinlan Mansion area, and together with other supporting armies, they established defense fortifications around the Tieheng Mountains.

Luo Kai was powerless to change all this. After leaving Xiaozhuo and Erya to Lao Fu, he came to the port and boarded a passenger ship heading north without saying goodbye to the two girls. He was destined to be just two little girls. A passerby in life.

Near noon, Luo Kai returned to his cabin. This was a 10,000-ton passenger ship with two floors. The lower floor had cheaper fares and there were a lot of people there, so the small cabin of about twenty square meters was crowded. There were more than a dozen people, most of whom were refugees from the Star Horse Country. They all had sad faces. They looked at the long knife carried behind Luo Kai with some vigilance. The year of great disaster must represent disorder, and people would go out. Be careful outside.

Luo Kai walked to the corner silently, rubbing the necklace with purple orchid on his chest. Next to him sat a young man wearing thick eyeglasses, holding a book in his hand, and he was reading intently.

The terminal station of the passenger ship is Xinyi Port in TECO Shangguo, and it will rarely stop at some ports along the way.

When it was getting dark, we stopped at a port called Hongji. The refugees rushed to get off the bus, and the passenger ship immediately became idle. Luo Kai also walked out, standing on the deck and looking at the brightly lit port not far away. .

"Where are you going, brother?" The young man wearing glasses walked over and asked.

"Faith."

The young man looked overjoyed and said, "I am also going to Xinyi. It is said that the Eastern Yuan Kingdom has advanced science and technology and has great respect for those of us who study science and engineering."

Luo Kai smiled and said nothing. He looked more delicate now, and he really didn't look like a tall and powerful martial artist.

The passenger ship stopped for about an hour and set off again against the north wind. After sailing for about ten nautical miles, the surrounding scenery changed. It was no longer the vast sea, but dotted islands. There were many residents living on the islands, and there were many Like a dam built by land reclamation, fuel boats are constantly shuttling around.

The young man said excitedly: "We have arrived in Dongyuan Shangguo. This is the administrative province of Thousand Islands Sea. It is said that there are exactly a thousand islands, large and small!"

Luo Kai looked at the island in front of him in a daze. According to calculations, this should be the place where he lived in his previous life, but now it seems to have been broken into pieces and turned into densely packed islands.

…

In the evening, Luo Kai went to the canteen and bought some rice balls and salted fish. After eating, he squinted his eyes and dozed off. While he was still asleep, he suddenly heard a strange noise in his ears. He opened his eyes and saw Two fluorite lamps were hung on the wall, and the young man next to him was sleeping soundly holding his own bundle.

At this time, the passenger ship had left the Thousand Island Sea and anchored at sea. Luo Kai listened carefully, and the sound came from under him one after another, which seemed to be the sound of impact.

As he walked out of the cabin, the moonlight shone on the sea, sparkling, and several small boats came over. Machine guns were mounted on the hulls, shining with bright metallic luster.

There were chaotic footsteps on the upper deck. Apparently the sailors had discovered that although this ship was a passenger ship, it was also equipped with machine guns and artillery, and it was very powerful.

A rough shout came: "A few ships are coming to the sea. They don't look like good people. Everyone, be careful."

People in the lower cabin also heard it. There are too many things in this world that can threaten human beings. People carry knives and firearms when they go out. At this time, they pulled out various weapons and poured out of the cabin to check. Even Luo The man next to me also took out a small pistol from his cuff.

At this time, the small boats on the sea have surrounded the passenger ship. You can see that there are some well-equipped soldiers wearing fish scale uniforms on the small boats. A middle-aged man in his forties walked out of one of the small boats. , shouted towards the passenger ship: "We are from the patrol brigade of Qiandao Administrative Province, put down the sampan quickly, we want to board the ship to search for the important criminal!"

The first mate of the passenger ship walked to the deck and shouted: "Sir, please show me your identity plate."

The middle-aged man took out a bright object from his arms and flashed it, and then shouted: "Okay, get down on the deck quickly. If you delay me from catching the important criminal, I will not spare you."

The first mate hesitated slightly. He didn't see it clearly just now, but it was very close to the Thousand Island Sea and there would be no pirates. He was ready to call the sailors to put down the sampan.

At this time, a beautiful and charming girl walked out of the cabin. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a delicate face and fair complexion. She was wearing a light green dress and had a graceful figure. She asked, "What happened?"

The identity of the girl seemed to be unusual. The first mate looked respectful and stepped forward and whispered: "Miss Zhang, the patrol team is coming to search the ship."

The girl walked to the side of the ship and took a look, frowning and said: "These people are not the patrol brigade. The fish scale armor equipped by the patrol brigade was made by my family. It has my family's mark on it, but not on them."

The first mate's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly alerted the sailors to be on guard. Then he cautiously walked to the bow of the ship and said loudly: "Sir, please throw up your identity plate."

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely sharp bullet shot out quickly and penetrated his chest. He fell to the ground and twitched for a few times before becoming motionless.

Fierce gunfire rang out, and the opponent's gunners were extremely accurate. All the sailors operating the artillery on the ship's side were shot.

Everyone on the boat was startled. They looked at the corpse on the deck. Their original enthusiasm suddenly disappeared and they hurriedly hid in the cabin.

During the interval when the gunfire stopped, a thick voice shouted from the sea: "Everyone on the boat, listen to me, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. As long as we don't need money, we will give it to me honestly." If you dare to resist, throw them all into the sea to feed the fish."

I saw several pirates on the boat jumping onto the passenger ship. At this moment, a tall man suddenly rushed out of the cabin and slashed at them with a knife.

The pirate who had just jumped up did not panic when he saw the cold light. He jumped back and jumped back to the boat. With a sarcastic look on his face, he said: "There are really some people who are not afraid of death, brothers. No need to hold back.”

The tall man returned to the cabin and fought with several pirates who were forced in. He shouted loudly: "The pirates are inhumane. They want to take away this passenger ship. As long as we board the ship, we will be killed even if we don't die." Sold into slavery!”

The man knew human nature very well. Once people have room to retreat, they will look forward and backward. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, several passengers shot at the water bandits. However, the accuracy of the marksmanship was far inferior to that of the water bandits.

In an instant, the pirates on the small boat jumped onto the passenger ship one after another. The cabin space was too small and not suitable for firearms. They all drew their swords and attacked and defended. They cooperated very well and started a fierce battle with everyone on the ship.

Luo Kai stood quietly at the stern of the ship, not participating in the fight on the ship, but staring brightly at a dark blue yacht that was slowly approaching on the sea in the distance.

There was a middle-aged man standing on the yacht with his hands behind his back. He seemed to be aware of it and looked towards him with a slightly surprised expression.

A pirate walked to the stern of the ship and immediately struck him with a knife.

Luo Kai turned his head indifferently and twisted his head off with a wave of his hand. He was lost in thoughts. The aura of the middle-aged man on the yacht was unfathomable. He was most likely a physical practitioner. Something that could make a physical practitioner take action was definitely not a coincidence. A simple pirate robbery is so simple.
