The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1037
[Chapter 1037 Who did it?]
No one spoke first, and the atmosphere remained silent.
After a while, someone finally couldn’t hold it any longer and started talking to the person next to him.
“Did you do what happened at the Jinzhou Health Center a few days ago?” A middle-aged man wearing a large cloak looked at the person next to him and asked.
“”
The man was silent and didn’t say a word.
A young man with long hair smiled, then showed a look of disdain on his face and said: “Is it him? He is so scared every day, let alone the Jinzhou Guard, I am afraid that he will be scared when he sees the clothes of the officers and soldiers. It’s so annoying.”
The person he mocked was an ugly man who was called an ugly wolf and was one of the oldest among the fifteen islands.
The young man is called the white-faced young man because he has inherited his father’s legacy.
Of course, he does have some means, otherwise he would not be able to gain a foothold on his own island.
The reason why he started to mock the ugly wolf was for no other reason than that his father died at the hands of the ugly wolf.
The Fifteen Islands Alliance is indeed an alliance, but it is only an alliance when it encounters an invasion from a foreign enemy.
It is common for islands to have disputes with each other. Therefore, other people do not care about attacks on each other.
Even if you die, it can only mean that you have no ability and cannot blame others.
The ugly wolf heard the white-faced man’s taunt and raised his eyes to look at him, with murderous intent in his eyes.
The white-faced young man sneered again and again and cursed: “Ugly thing, who are you staring at? If you can stare at me, why don’t you fight with me with real swords and guns!” When the
ugly wolf heard this, he did not respond, but withdrew his gaze. .
“What, are you scared?” The white-faced young man waited for him and continued to taunt.
The ugly wolf was still silent.
The white-faced young man suddenly felt that he had no place to use his strength, so he could only snort and stop provoking.
“Oh, what’s there to fuss about? It’s just a small Jinzhou Guards Station. If we fight, we’ll fight. Now the Chu court is having a headache because of Nanyang affairs. How can they have time to take care of us?”
The person who spoke was a charming person. The woman, at this moment, is holding a knife with her nails.
Her name was Hu Mei, but later she felt it didn’t sound good, so she changed it to Hu Mei.
It was quite in line with her imagination.
“I said that, girl from the Hu family, that’s not what I said. Although the Jinzhou Guards Station is not that good, the Dachu Imperial Court is very powerful. Look at how powerful those pirates in the Southeast Road were before. What are they
now? They have been provoked. The Great Chu Court, no, they didn’t provoke the Great Chu Court at all. In the end, they were beaten to death and ran away. “
The person who spoke was the first one to speak, Zhong, who was wearing a big cloak. Year man.
He looks ordinary and has a very loyal face, but in fact he is the most sinister and cunning one.
These words seemed to be to persuade Hu Mei not to provoke the court, but in fact they were mocking the woman sitting in the first place, who had not been driven back from Southeast Road in despair.
Everyone present was not a fool, so they could naturally understand the underlying meaning of his words.
Everyone looked at the woman sitting in the front seat, their eyes more or less mocking and teasing.
The Hu woman sitting in the first seat didn’t care at all, and said leisurely: “This is true. For us people, it is a dead end to go against the imperial court.
I have experienced this personally, so , I summoned everyone here just for one thing, to find out the person who attacked Jinzhou Guards Station, then kill him, and send his head to Jinzhou Port to apologize to the court.” After
the words fell, the whole place fell silent.
Everyone looked at the barbarian woman with strange eyes.
After a while, someone finally couldn’t help it anymore and said angrily: “Apologise to the court? Those who know that we are pirates, but those who don’t know think that we are the island guards entrusted by the court!”
“That’s right, sister, the court is indeed It’s not easy to mess with, but that was in the past, it’s different now. They can’t spare the energy to take care of a small Jinzhou Health Center, so they just beat me. What’s the big deal?”
Hu Mei stretched a little. Waist, said leisurely.
The white-faced young man was indifferent to these things, but looked at the ugly wolf on the other side from time to time, with hatred in his eyes.
Apparently thinking about how to kill him.
The ugly wolf was still the same as before, remaining silent from beginning to end and not saying a word.
Most of the other people were just like the ugly wolf, remaining silent, but they didn’t know why.
At this time, the honest man stood up and said: “Actually, what Pooh said is right. The court is not easy to provoke, but beheading is a bit excessive. After all, we are pirates, not officers and soldiers.
We originally What we do is against the imperial court. In other words, most of us here are dissatisfied with the imperial court’s style of conduct, so we turn into bandits and become pirates. We bow to the imperial court for such a trivial matter. That’s not true. It’s appropriate.
In my opinion, if we are like this, whoever attacked the Jinzhou Guards Station should stop hiding it, stand up and share what you grabbed with everyone, and this matter will be treated as such.”
The words fell. , everyone was still silent.
Obviously, it is not a trivial matter for everyone to attack the Jinzhou Guard Station, and no one is willing to bear this responsibility.
The reason is also very simple.
If the people in the imperial court don’t know who attacked the Jinzhou Guard Station, when they attack, they can only attack everyone without a specific target.
The sea area of Jinzhou Prefecture is very large, and there are many pirates. Now, including the pirates who have fled from the Southeast Road, there are not more than 100,000 people, but maybe 10,000 or 20,000.
The imperial court could not spare so much energy to fight against the 10,000 or 20,000 pirates.
Even if the imperial court wanted to retaliate, the most it could do was to find a few pirates to vent their anger, and then take them back to the common people.
Then Jinzhou Port strengthened its defense for a few days, and after the limelight passed, everything was business as usual.
Of course, this is also the best result.
But if the court knew who attacked the Jinzhou Guards Station, it would be different.
There is no doubt that the imperial court will send people to pursue and attack until the pirates are wiped out.
Therefore, who did it cannot be said.
“Ha! In my opinion, it was Ugly Wolf who did this! One of your ships was sunk by me. If you want to make up for it, you can only grab the ships in Jinzhou Port, but there are very few ships in Jinzhou Port now. Come out.
You can only go to Jinzhou Port to rob. When we arrived at Jinzhou Port, we saw the Jinzhou Guard’s ship and had the idea to just rob the Jinzhou Guard’s ship. There
were only fifteen of us !
You have a reason to do such a thing!”
When Ugly Wolf heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at the white-faced young master, but still ignored him, but the expression on his face became more and more disdainful.
