Chapter 774: Pirate Lair
The ship traveled at sea for seven or eight days, and on this day, Xia Hongsheng suddenly felt a shock to the ship's body, and his body couldn't help but stumble, and then he found that the ship had stopped. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The pirates outside began to shout, and disembarked with the captives.
Xia Hongsheng therefore knew that he should have arrived at Diaoyu Island.
This Diaoyu Island must be the original historical trajectory, the later Ryukyu Kingdom, and the ****** of later generations.
Xia Hongsheng was taken off the ship, and finally left the floating deck and stepped on the ground.
I really thought that when the Tang Dynasty sailors went ashore here, they took a boulder and engraved the words "****** has been Chinese territory since ancient times", and then buried it deep underground, to see who would dare to bark wildly in future generations.
However, I am afraid that my actions have changed the original world line, and it is estimated that there will be no more Japan in the future. Instead, it may be Datang Dongying Dao?
"Let's go!" Xia Hongsheng was pushed hard, stumbled a few times, and almost fell.
Xia Hongsheng needs to spend at least a month in the pirate lair in Diaoyu Island. Because the letter sent by the Tang envoy was sent back to the Wa Kingdom, it would take nearly a month for the smoothest and fastest journey, and the Wa Imperial Court reacted and ordered to arrive here from Fujiwara Kyo, but I am afraid that it would take ten days and a half a month to get it at the earliest.
During this period, Ghost Qianqiu had to go out to loot a few more ships and people, so that when the time came for Ghost Qianqiu to ask for someone, Ghost Qianqiu would catch Xia Hongsheng's matter, so that it would not seem so deliberate and abrupt.
Escorted by the pirates, they walked around the beach and turned past a cliff where they came into view a stone wall overgrown with trees.
The pirates escorted the captives towards the stone wall, and when they reached the stone wall, they saw a crack in the stone wall, which was blocked by the dense vegetation, revealing only about two people tall below, and a narrow part of an arm's width, like a natural door.
There were two other trees nearby, but their roots were exposed and upside down, just obscuring the entrance.
No wonder no one has discovered the pirates' lair, this place is not visible from the outside, even if you are standing in front of you, you can't see it at once, let alone on a ship. Even with a telescope, you can't see that there is an entrance covered by two trees under this green wall.
The pirates moved over and moved away from the two trees, and several people immediately sprang out of them.
Those pirates scolded and escorted everyone through that entrance, and Xia Hongsheng was no exception.
Entering the entrance of the stone crevice, walking wider and wider, about twenty or thirty meters away, suddenly opened up in front of me, but saw that the stone wall of the week was like a natural wall, but in the middle was a concave, and all kinds of buildings of the pirates were all displayed in front of Xia Hongsheng's eyes at this moment.
No wonder these pirates were not found by the government's ships anyway, they were hiding here, and they didn't walk in in person, who could have discovered that there was a hole in it!
However, this place with stone walls on all sides is very good for hiding people and things, but the pirates have a hundred and ten ships, but where are they hidden? After getting off the boat, it seems that the boat continues to circle to the north side, maybe the place where the boat is hidden is on the north side of the island?
Continuing to walk inside, Xia Hongsheng finally saw it.
It turned out that behind these buildings, on the other side of the stone wall, there was a large fissure under the cliff, and the sea flowed in from that fissure, and on one side of the stone wall, it converged into a large lake-like terrain. It was full of boats.
Xia Hongsheng understood that this was basically the crater of an extinct volcano, surrounded by stone walls, and the seawater poured in in the middle to form a lake, and the pirates lived in the foothills of the lake.
It's a great hiding place!
However, why does it seem to be different from the ****** terrain in the later generations?
Could it be that there is some change of address in the middle?
Definitely.
"Look at what! Come on! Xia Hongsheng was pushed again, and this time he stumbled and was pushed to the ground.
Damn, this son remembers you!
Xia Hongsheng got up from the ground, and as soon as he stood still, he saw Ghost Qianqiu coming.
"Lock him up alone, so he beckons." Ghost Qianqiu pointed at Xia Hongsheng and said to those pirates: "He is worth hundreds of thousands!" ”
When the pirates heard this, they all immediately looked at Xia Hongsheng. And Xia Hongsheng also discovered that these pirates were obviously not as fearful as those pirates who were on the ship just now. Seeing him coming, he didn't say a big hello, and the pirates just nodded at the command he issued, and they knew it.
After speaking, Ghost Qianqiu said no more and turned to leave.
didn't go far before Xia Hongsheng heard a few pirates discussing him in a whisper: "What about the Zhenhai Ghost King, it's just that others look up to him and give him a name, so should he really have the final say?" ”
"The ghost king of Zhenhai, you don't have to look at the face of Tanegashima-sama." The other pirate scoffed.
Tanegashima? …… The surname of this Japanese man is really strange.
Wait, I'll go, it won't be the ancestor of the Daimyo Tanegashima clan in the Warring States period of Japan in the later generations! I seem to have seen this surname when I was playing a game, and I had such a lost impression.
However, that impression of loss is limited to that.
It is estimated that those pirates on the ship are the ones who have followed the ghost for a long time and are still loyal to him. The people in front of me are afraid that they only became pirates later, and the impression of this Zhenhai ghost king is probably just an empty name, but you have to obey the image of the Japanese people.
Looking at the attitude of these pirates towards him, he has a feeling of falling into Pingyang, and it seems that the words of Ghost Qianqiu may be true.
However, having said that, these pirates still separated Xia Hongsheng from those who were captive, and after imprisoning those people in the water prison, they took Xia Hongsheng to the top and locked Xia Hongsheng in a cell alone.
The inside of the cell was quite dirty, but compared to the water prison below, there was no need to suffer so much.
"Worth hundreds of thousands?! Boy, what's up to you?! After putting Xia Hongsheng inside, the pirate who sent him over asked outside.
"I, my father is in business......" Xia Hongsheng seemed to be a little frightened: "Also, I still have some family background......"
The pirate seemed to curse a few words again, but the words he said seemed to be some kind of dialect, but Xia Hongsheng couldn't understand it.
After the pirate left, Xia Hongsheng looked back at the bed in the prison, a piece of stone with a slightly flat surface, and a few dry thatch scattered on it. I couldn't help but sigh faintly: Li Lao Er, in order to let the Tang Dynasty occupy an enclave located in the Wa Kingdom as an overseas military base, but he has to suffer a lot, you have to know how to be grateful, and hurry up to do the marriage of this son after you go back - you have been preparing a dowry, and you have been preparing it for a fucking year!
