It was dawn, and this small village with dozens of people was filled with the fragrance of meat porridge.

Every household was eating outside with bowls. In the morning mist, they were walking around the village, and the faintest part of the morning fog appeared and woke up like a fairy-like misty person.

"He is Uncle?"

A young man asked, and his wife squatting beside him who was drinking porridge first caught the rice grains at the corner of her son's mouth, then stuffed them into her mouth, and then said, "They are going to see the boat! It's the big ship like Eunuch Zheng, which is definitely not a coaxing person."

The young man nodded, took a bite of the meat porridge, and said, "It is definitely not a lie to be willing to give food to him so much, but why didn't he leave?"

...

The smell mixed in the morning mist here is not very good, and it feels like some rotten plants are emitting a breath.

Fang Xing frowned and looked at the direction of the beach, he was waiting for news.

When the morning fog was dispelled by the sun, a young man was taken to Fang Xing.

"Brother..."

"Don't kneel."

Fang Xing stopped his kneeling and asked, "Do you find any sea boats coming in and out here?"

The young man hesitated for a moment, Fang Xing smiled and said kindly: "That's pirates, do you understand? If you don't wipe them out now, when the army arrives in the future, there will be a lot of trouble."

It’s not that Fang Xing was unkind and insisted on using a large army to intimidate him. These people are well versed in the way of protecting themselves. If they don’t use strong medicine, the news will probably be true or false, and it will be a big problem to lose the fleet at that time.

Sure enough, the young man looked panicked and said, "Brother, those people are on the back, probably on the beach in the back of a small village. Sometimes they would come over to collect food, but they were willing to exchange spices. Later, a brave man in the village secretly got on their boat and followed him, and then he knew where their nest was."

"How many people? Where are they?"

"It seems like there are hundreds of people, including Han people, former Japanese people, and natives in Luzon."

Fang Xing nodded and said, "Okay! Lao Qi, reward him!"

Xin Laoqi responded, and then came over with two large bags of rice.

Fang Xing said gently: "Don't think it's too little, I will give you some food to your village."

Turning back, Fang Xing ordered, "Let the fleet prepare, let's set off right away."

The young man hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, those people have helped..."

But Fang Xing had already walked away from Xin Laoqi and had not heard him.

The fleet quickly left the coastline and began to move in the direction given by the young man.

...

Li Er was in the wooden house. Through the opened door, he could see more than a dozen pirates wandering nearby.

This means to bet. Cao Qi will not allow him to leave here until the transaction is completed.

"It's only been a few years! These rules have changed, and loyalty has disappeared!"

Today is the day for trading. Li Er has read all the gold, silver, spices and other goods used for exchange, and then taken to the beach.

Li Er's calves were trembling slightly, which was a habit of keeping vitality.

When the sun rose to its peak, truckloads of goods were pulled back.

The transaction is over!

Li Er was still motionless, and the sun was reflected in the land outside the house, reflecting Li Er's face very coldly.

A sound of footsteps came, but Li Er still didn't move.

"Li Er!"

Cao Qi walked in, followed by his traitorous Sun Brother, and two big men.

Li Er stood up and said, "Brother Qi, has the delivery been completed?"

Cao Qi and his others blocked the light outside the house, making them look particularly tall.

"Li Er, would you like to enjoy your happiness with me?"

The light was blocked, Li Er's face was blurred, and he smiled and said, "I want to serve my mother for a hundred years. Brother Seven, please don't make things difficult for me?"

Brother Sun said behind Cao Qi: "Li Er, don't be ungrateful!"

The threatening meaning of this sentence was very strong. The two big men beside him held the hilt of the knife and were ready to pull the sword to attack at any time.

This is the alliance under the city!

Cao Qi had a reserved look on his face. He always wanted to gather Li Er, the former pirate. Today's opportunity is rare, and the one who doesn't take action is a fool.

Li Er looked a little thin in the dark, and Cao Qi became more convinced, so he slowed down and said, "From the future, you will be the second person below me, let's..."

Just when he was full of complacency, Li Er moved.

It was like a lightning bolt. When Cao Qi reacted, a short blade was already resting on his neck. At the same time, Li Er's left hand passed through Cao Qi's waist and ribs. After leaving and pressing his backhand, the tall Cao Qi couldn't help but bend down.

"Do it!"

Brother Sun just shouted this sentence. As soon as the two big men drew their swords, Cao Qi was already controlled by Li Er.

He pressed Cao Qi and turned around, and then said coldly: "He died, or give way!"

Cao Qi's right hand was pressed on his back, so painful that he almost wanted to howl. But he didn't dare. As long as he howled, he would be a soft egg in the eyes of these pirates in the future.

There is a soft leader... the internal strife is almost certain, just like the heroes of Liangshan are both popular and Wang Lun.

"Li Er, what's your ability to attack secretly? Let me go, otherwise everyone will die together!"

Cao Qi shouted in sweat, for a person like him, being humiliated in front of his subordinates was almost the same as death.

Brother Sun also shouted: "Let go of Brother Seven, or you will kill your mother!"

Li Er's eyes flashed sharply, but he really let go of Cao Qi.

Cao Qi rushed forward, then straightened his waist with difficulty and moved his right arm.

The two big men rushed over immediately and prepared to kill Li Er.

"return!"

Cao Qi's face flushed and he kept moving his right arm.

The two big men were stunned and finally stopped and retreated.

Li Er took the short blade and bowed, "I'm so greedy today. Thank you for your advice. Next time I, Li Er, will bring some good wine to thank you."

Brother Sun's eyes flashed and said, "Brother Seven, kill him!"

Cao Qi shook his head, looked at Sun Brother with a slight look, and said, "I will have someone to drink, Li Er and I will have a drink, and then send him onto the boat."

Brother Sun was stunned, and Cao Qi shouted, "Go now!"

After Sun's brother went out, Cao Qi smiled bitterly and said, "I saw that I didn't have a good time, so I invited you sincerely."

Li Er said lightly: "If it were me when I was at sea, this person would have been chopped up with one knife. Keeping it would be a disaster!"

Cao Qi sighed and said, "Most of my subordinates are Japanese, followed by those Ming people who escaped from the Central Plains. With some natives, they are too mixed and difficult to deal with!"

Li Er said lightly: "If you kill, just kill the leader, no one dares to act rashly!"

Cao Qi said embarrassedly: "It's easy to say it, but it's hard to do it, just go drink."

...

The pirates' banquet was actually good, and they had enough wine and meat.

A roasted brown chicken was put on a knife and was sent to Li Er.

The Japanese were delivering the food. He spoke in the inexperienced Ming dialect, "Do you dare?"

This is an open space, with a bonfire burning in front of it, and more than a dozen Japanese people are roasting things at the bonfire, looking back from time to time.

Two tables are placed next to each other, Cao Qi is on the left and Li Er on the right.

Li Er looked at him in disguise and said, "Not to mention eating raw meat, when I was in Japan, I was so hungry that I even ate your Japanese meat!"

After saying that, Li Er pulled out the knife and threw it out, and pierced it on the trunk of a small tree on the right.

The Japanese man suddenly changed color. When he was about to call his companion, Li Er tore a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. He said lightly: "Eat it, otherwise I will chop you up!"

After saying that, he sat down and started eating.

The chicken was actually burned by fire. It looked brown on the outside, but the meat inside was all raw, and it was full of blood when it was mouthful.

Li Er just ate it like this, and the chicken blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth and dripped down his chin, but his eyes were staring at the Japanese.

The Japanese expression changed from anger to gentleness. He ate the bloody chicken legs and then bowed.

Cao Qi looked at the scene with a gloomy face, feeling a little regretful, feeling that he should not take care of anything and directly kill Li Er, and then kill Sun Brother.

"Brother Seven, drink!"

Li Er raised the bowl toast, Cao Qiqiang responded with a smile, and then drank the bowl of wine, but he didn't know the taste.

Li Er ate the raw chicken in a few sips of meat and wine, then raised his head and dried the wine, stood up and said, "I am grateful for the hospitality of Brother Qi, we will have a date in the future!"
