Episode 160

  This message undoubtedly threw a stone into still water, suddenly producing ripples. Later, the ripples seemed to have encountered wind and unexpectedly became huge waves!

  "Mr. Akatsuki, with such a dilapidated ship, how can we venture into the deep sea to search for fishing grounds? Not to mention typhoons, even a storm would be enough to make us fish food."

  "Mr. Akira, when will you set sail on a distant voyage?"

  Insufficient, ask again.

  "Tomorrow!"

  "Tomorrow? Isn't it too sudden?"

  "How can this be? Is it really tomorrow? With no preparation at all, how can I set sail on a distant voyage?"

  Tie Erge's face turned red with anger and he hastily said...

  "The hurry above is that even Lao Shou Tou and Yu Tou Er have no way to delay for three or five days."

  "In that case, we should head for shore first, reinforce the hull, replace the sails and hire two or three experienced sailors who have been on long voyages."

  Insufficient advice was given.

  "It's too late! In just two more hours, I'll be leaving!"

  "Mr. Akira, are you saying we should go to our deaths?"

  The rest of the people all said angrily. Mr. Akatsuki sighed and said:

  "Gentlemen, our family members are in trouble and we cannot choose. Even if it's Xu certain, he is also with you all on the same path and cannot escape either."

  Insufficient to hear words, sinking voice said:

  "Mr. Akira, what is needed on the boat or to be purchased on land! After all, we are over a dozen people, most of us have elderly and children at home, even if we sacrifice our own lives, how will those families make a living afterwards?"

  "It's just that there isn't enough time. The round trip from here to the shore takes three to two hours, plus shopping and purchasing, how can we make it on time?"

  "Mr. Akira, you can send someone to drive a small boat ashore to buy goods, and then follow us later. The small boat is fast, in about half an hour, we will be caught up."

  "Then who can go?"

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay, all silent and motionless. The family slipped away ashore, what can be done about it!

  At this time, dozens of fishing boats had gone far away, and all the fishermen on the boat were silent.

  "Jin Zu, your suggestion that Mr. Xu go ashore to make purchases, if he doesn't return, what can we do about it? Actually, if you were the one to go, I would feel more at ease."

  "Haha, Tie Er Ge, a certain Jin Zu is homeless and helpless in this place, as soon as he lands, he can run away, who would be at ease? But Mr. Xu is different, his family is all on the shore in the city, it's not easy to escape, and this person's nature is not bad, abandoning his brothers' affairs, I'm afraid he won't do that. The boat slowed down, let's wait a bit longer."

  Everyone sighed and set off. It was already evening, the sea and sky merged together, where could one distinguish between the sea and the sky? Even if the wind lantern on the mast was hung high, it could only vaguely see the position of the nearby fishing boats.

  "But Mr. Akira's fishing boat?"

  A loud shout came over.

  "Yes! Who is your family?"

  Tie Er on the boat shouted loudly.

  "The three commanders have given orders, instructing you all to increase your sailing speed and follow the main fleet."

  "Understood. It's just that our fishing boat has a minor problem and needs to be repaired urgently. Please inform the Third Master, we will catch up soon."

  "Anyway, let's hurry up."

  That night, a fast boat was speeding away, churning up the dark water.

  "What time is it now?"

  Insufficient inquiry about the way.

  "It's almost midnight."

  The big black man said in a low voice.

  "Ah! Light up two stern lanterns."

  "What's the point? Mr. Akatsuki is definitely not coming back. This broken ship will sink as soon as it encounters a big storm, and we'll all be done for."

  "Light up!"

  Zhu Yun hastily lit the two lanterns at the back of the boat. Insufficiently, he quietly transformed himself into a dust outside, and had already known that Mr. Xu's small boat was following behind, less than five miles away.

  "The big ship will stop for a while, let's wait a bit longer."

  Insufficient words.

  "No! The Third Master has already sent someone to urge him twice, and if he's any slower, he'll probably get angry."

  Tie Ergou said bitterly.

  "Don't worry! Tell them we'll be a bit late, but we'll definitely catch up."

  "Okay! Let me try again."

  "Hey! Is that Iron Two?"

  "Is that right, Mr. Akira?"

  "Brother Tie Er, we finally made it! Hahaha......"

  Everyone on the big boat quickly lowered a rope ladder and moved all the goods purchased from the small boat onto it. After that, Mr. Xu climbed aboard the big boat. The small boat was driven back by Mr. Xu's servant. Tie Erge and others told Mr. Xu in detail about the matter of urging San Dangjia to hurry up, and Mr. Xu's face turned solemn and said:

  "Hurry up and sail, catch up with the fleet, don't fall behind. I've obtained some information this time I came ashore, it seems that this trip is going to be very inauspicious!"

  Tie Ergou exclaimed in surprise:

  "Mr. Akira, what's wrong? Why such a face?"

  Mr. Akira lowered his voice and whispered:

  "The Haishen gang has borrowed troops from the naval army to practice at sea, and it seems that they are following our fishing boats. If we can't find a new fishing ground, then forget it, but if we do, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch many fish before we end up buried in the ocean."

  "Ah! This......"

  Tie Ergou's face turned pale with shock and he exclaimed.

  "Shh! This must be kept secret, or else the master of the house will silence us."

  "Good for you, little brother! But this way, we'll all have our lives to worry about!"

  "Yes! Must make early plans! Be careful every day and never take unnecessary risks."

  The two of them chatted in hushed tones for a while. Without raising an eyebrow or even looking, they coldly observed. Their conversation was all in my ears.

  "Alas! Why is fate so cruel? I had hoped to find an opportunity to sail across the sea and head towards the ancient continent, but unexpectedly, I've encountered another assassination attempt!"

  Suddenly, Mr. Akira exclaimed loudly:

  "Gentlemen, for sailing across the ocean, a ship is of utmost importance. Our previous experience with a damaged ship could not withstand the strong winds and waves. Therefore, reinforcing it comes first, followed by setting sail. Now that all materials are ready, you must work diligently."

  "Don't worry, Mr. Bu Laohuang, we all understand."

  Then everyone on the boat was busy.

  It was after midnight, just at dawn, when only a few people were left on the boat to manage it, and the others were all in their dreams. Suddenly, a loud noise burst out.

  "Mr. Akira, the Three Heads have invited you."

  A man on a small boat called out to the big ship. Mr. Akira, who was in the front cabin of the ship, looked at Tie Erge with surprise and asked:

  "Didn't you already know about the Sea God Gang?"

  Mr. Akira shook his head and left in silence, taking a small boat away from the ship.

  Insufficient is the person steering the boat, at this time his hands are busy with work, yet he sweeps the remaining light from the corner of his eye towards the big sea ship three miles ahead.

  "I'm afraid the people on the big sea ship already know about it! Poorly, this fleet of 200 or 300 fishing boats and nearly a thousand sailors, if the Sea God's army comes to attack, the navy is no different from a one-sided slaughter for the poor people! I don't know how many people can return?"

  Thinking so, he raised his head and glanced at the young man Zhu Yun by his side, and suddenly felt a great deal of unbearable sympathy in his heart.

  "Zhu Yun, come over here and help with something."

  "Alright, Brother Jin."
