Chapter 315 On board the pirate ship
Qin Qiong ignored these things. She was feeling very uncomfortable right now. Her heart was tormented as if it was being burned by fire, but she couldn't find the source of the problem.
She could feel that it was the master's rejection, but she wanted to know why? Why was the master so resistant, and did all this have anything to do with her? So she could only endure it.
There is a water route to Bande City, but they have two carts, so they can't abandon them. At the same time, Qin Qiong is in a hurry to get to Bande City, and Uncle Qin wants to send his son to the academy first.
So, the two groups separated in Jiu Town. Qin Qiong took two people and went directly to Bangde City by water, while Uncle Qin led the others to Weiqing Academy in Miancheng first.
Although it was already October, the weather in Ming was not cold, but rather a refreshing autumn feeling. Qin Qiong and his companions waited at the dock for a day before boarding a large cargo ship, which carried more than a dozen people in addition to the cargo.
Mao Li felt that it might be a bit inconvenient and asked Qin Qiong if they wanted to wait a little longer, or find a smaller boat themselves. Qin Qiong did not think it was inconvenient, and they must get to Bande City as soon as possible. They had been a bit slow in the past few days because of Uncle Qin's convoy, so she said it didn't matter.
The captain said that if there was a favorable wind, they would arrive in four days. Qin Qiong went straight into the hold to sleep.
They sailed like this for two days. When it was almost evening, they arrived at a place and the ship stopped. They said there was cargo to be unloaded, and the people on the ship were busy.
Qin Qiong seemed to hear someone else getting on board.
Soon, a woman among the newcomers entered the cabin and kept talking to the people in the cabin. When the woman took the initiative to talk to the fourth person, Qin Qiong opened his eyes.
She motioned to Li and the others to go out with her. When they got outside, it was almost dark. Five or six new people came up, all dressed like wandering commoners. Although their clothes were different, their walk and behavior styles were very consistent.
At the same time, Mao Li also came closer and whispered to her that these people were probably some martial artists.
Qin Qiong nodded. She walked to the side of the boat and looked down at the waterline. She couldn't help but frowned. She was in trouble. She said why she felt something was wrong just now. It turned out that the goods had already been unloaded, but the captain said that the ship was going to Bande City.
Before boarding the boat, she asked Mao Li if they could swim. They said they could, so she dared to board the boat because her swimming ability was average.
She shook her head and couldn't help but groan. Just as she was about to turn around and tell Mao Li and the others to get ready, she heard a groan from the side.
When she looked up, she saw a man lying on the side of the boat looking down. He also looked up, and their eyes met.
The man obviously also heard Qin Qiong's "tsk". When he saw Qin Qiong looking at him, he smiled, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.
Because it was late in the day, Qin Qiong could not see his face clearly. Apart from his smiling eyes and a pretty nice beard.
A bit like that star, Qin Qiong thought, yes, like Hu Bayi played by Chen Kun...
Qin Qiong narrowed his eyes. Maybe because of his good looks, Qin Qiong immediately felt that this person should not be an enemy. He smiled at him, shrugged his shoulders, pointed at the new people on the boat, and asked what they meant.
When the man saw her gesture, he was stunned for a moment, then he curled his lips and made an expression as if he was about to cry. Qin Qiong was also stunned, then he smiled and shook his head.
She turned around and said to Mao Li, "We might have run into bandits. The captain might be one of them. A fight might break out soon. Let's check the situation first before going into the water, so as not to get swallowed up by someone."
"Master, how about we take action first? These guys might be here to investigate. We should take advantage of the fact that their supporters haven't arrived yet..."
Li Jingming whispered some advice to Qin Qiong.
Li Jingming's name means both quiet and bright, but he is not quiet at all. He followed Mao Li because he was injured and saved by him, but he didn't want to go back to the army to serve.
He was a very lively person. As he had no family, he spent his money on eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and had a bit of a bad reputation. Mr. Gao didn't want him at first, but Mao Li guaranteed him and let him join the alliance.
After getting to know him for a while, Qin Qiong felt that this guy was not bad, but just a little bit idle. He said that his biggest goal was to marry a beautiful wife, but he didn't save a penny for a wife. Qin Qiong felt that this guy was still too young and a little muddleheaded. He might not even know his real life goal.
But it's normal. Men should be independent at the age of 30. Even after 30, many people don't know what they want to do.
Take Qin Qiong herself for example. She had originally thought that she would try harder after she turned thirty, but as she was thinking about it, she died...
Qin Qiong looked around. Now, the boat was in the middle of the river again, not close to the shore on either side. The river looked calm, but such a large boat could sail with the wind, which meant that the river was very deep. If he fell into the water, he would be exhausted to swim to the shore.
She learned to swim in a swimming pool, so if she really started to fight in the water, she would...
At that time, the only option may be to seduce her.
However, she could also find a way to get a small boat. However, since he was doing business on the water, he would definitely be better at sailing than her. She could find someone to row the boat in the water, and then she could only seduce him.
Damn it! She is such a loser!
"They have more people than us, so we need to find a few more so we can work together."
Qin Qiong finally made the decision. She looked around again and saw that the handsome man with the beard was talking to a man dressed as a businessman.
She turned to Mao Li and Ming Zi and said, "Go and say hello to those two people and see if you can work together. Ming Zi, go look around and see if there is anyone who can escape. Be careful and don't let anyone find you. I'll go into the warehouse and see if I can pin that woman down first."
"Yes, Sect Master"
"clear"
After the three people separated, Qin Qiong entered the hold again. She noticed that the new people on board had seen their actions, but they looked indifferent and smiled at her mockingly. Obviously, they knew that someone on the ship had discovered something was wrong.
However, it is obvious that they are not afraid. It seems that they are habitual thieves and have done this kind of thing many times.
Qin Qiong walked to the warehouse entrance. As there were five or six steps, she didn't want to be attacked through the gap in the stairs, so she simply supported herself with her hands on the edge of the entrance and jumped down.
As soon as she landed on the ground, she heard a gust of wind behind her and a woman's surprised cry.
"I'm going to take the test," she cursed inwardly.
When he turned around, he saw the woman who had just been talking to everyone standing behind the stairs. She had a long-handled harpoon in her hand and was trying to pull it out from the gap in the stairs.
Qin Qiong immediately glanced around, and to his surprise, the seven or eight people below had all fallen down.
It seemed that this woman was quite capable. Qin Qiong no longer hesitated and went up to grab the harpoon. After the two of them pulled each other twice, as soon as she let go, the woman suddenly lost her strength, stepped back several steps and sat on the ground. The harpoon in her hand was also stuck on the stairs and she lost her hand.
