The incense of worshipping the Dragon King of the East China Sea, King Ao Guang of Cangningde, dyed the small harbor on the coast of Tieshan dim.

The golden bronze statue of King Guangde, which is more than one zhang high, was moved from the temple of the dragon king enshrined in the thief's cave and stood on the shore. Below the golden body of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, there is also a row of sea gods worshiped by coastal people, namely the fairy girl dressed as a young woman of Huaxin, as well as the two old men Liu Gong and Liu Mu who are kind and kind, and there are also whales called fish catchers or Lao Zhao, as well as sea turtles who are respectfully called old handsome.

These are the sea gods worshiped by the coastal people, the Dragon King of the East China Sea is the main, and the Immortal Gu and Liu Gong and Liu Mu are the messengers of the Dragon King. And the whale and the turtle are the generals of the dragon king, and the whale that meets the whale at sea is called the dragon soldier, according to the fishermen, when the dragon soldier is crossed, the pioneer officer who escorts the grain and grass is in the forefront, the shrimp, and the fish it escorts are groups of yellow croaker and grass carp; Behind the vanguard officer is the guard of honor is the pair of fish, behind the guard of honor is the yaksha, the dragon king sits on a coral cart pulled by ten sea horses, the turtle prime minister is on the left side of the car, on both sides of the car are four large whales, commonly known as gunners, by which the cannon fires forward. When fishermen are fishing in the sea, they have to stop their operations and hold a sacrificial ceremony.

Fishermen and pirates revere turtles the most at sea. It is said that turtles are good at change and can bring good and bad luck to people. Therefore, fishermen are allowed to catch turtles when working, but they must not offend turtles. Fishermen say it sometimes climbs into the net, and it looks like it's the size of a bowl, but when it enters the water, it becomes bigger than a grinding plate. Whenever you see a turtle, you should not only burn incense and paper, but also kowtow and pray. People at sea are taboo to say turtles, calling it "old man", "old handsome", and "old man". Some habits also arise from it, such as when a fishing boat is at anchor. The first thing to do is to shout, "Give—the anchor!" "After shouting. Stop for a moment before lifting the anchor into the sea. It is said that it is afraid of hurting the turtle and telling it to avoid it.

These statues of the gods are all one-eyed Jiao asked craftsmen to shape their bodies with copper, and then they are close to the body with gold, and the appearance looks golden and majestic. It's a pity that these gods didn't bless him, and he died in Shamen Town in the end. When Zhendonghai captured the thief's den, he searched the Dragon King Temple for the first time. I was shocked to see these idols. The pirates all bowed down, and none of them dared to blaspheme the sea god.

"Dragon King bless!" With Yellowbeard, thousands of black crows knelt down in front of these sea gods.

"Is the Dragon King really spiritual, that one-eyed Jiao shaped a golden body for him, and he also offered incense day and night, why didn't he bless him?" Duan Shan of the special combat team is not a coastal person, and he does not understand the worship and worship of the sea god by the coastal people. He didn't know what to do, the fishermen along the coast worshipped the sea god the most, and the pirates walking on the sea were even more religious.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yellowbeard interrupted Duan Shan's blasphemy against the sea god, "Be pious in front of the Dragon King." Then he will bless you. "This mountain is a good warrior, and he always rushes to the front when he fights. He is also bold. It's just a pity that there is always a little bit of the breath of the sea people on his body, and people who are not even afraid of the dragon king are not suitable for walking on the sea. However, he was a representative sent by Li Jing, and this status made it impossible for him to rebuke him. He remembered the decision and arrangement of the eldest brother, maybe they really needed to wash their hands and go ashore, no longer be this outlaw pirate, but join Li Jing's command? Although the sea is free, but a sea thief like the one-eyed Jiao, even if he shapes the golden body of the sea god and worships the sea god, he also ends up dying and ruining his family, and even the families of a group of old and weak women and children can't be saved.

Thousands of pirate families on the shore were also ordered to kneel down to worship, but there was no need for the people of Zhendonghai to maintain order, and these captives were all full of devotion to the statue of the sea god, chanting prayers in their mouths.

Yellowbeard led everyone to worship the sea gods one by one, "Ao Guangshenjun, the Dragon King of Guangde in the East China Sea, I and other lowly disciples worship sincerely, please come and bless us with victory in this battle." After the victory, we will worship the gods for eternity, build temples and altars for the gods, and offer incense forever! ”

For pirates, sea gods such as dragon kings and fairy girls have a special meaning. Every time before going to sea, the dragon king of the East China Sea must be sacrificed, and the new ship is launched, and the dragon king must be sacrificed when he returns with a full load. If the wives of the pirates are pregnant, they worship the fairy aunts. Those who marry wives worship Liu Gong and Liu Mu. When there is a storm at sea, burn incense and paper, kowtow and pray, and worship Lao Shuai and Lao Zhao.

Now that a big war is coming, even for the pirates such as Yellowbeard, who was born in the pirate den and has been on the sea for most of his life, this will also be an unprecedented big battle, and when he thinks of the dozens of warships and thousands of soldiers and horses of the Feng clan, he can't help but feel nervous.

It's an adventure, and if the eldest brother is still in charge, how will he choose? Yellowbeard knew that Brother Dao would definitely choose to fight, this was originally a battle that belonged to Li Jing, but he handed over this battle to Zhen Donghai. Yellowbeard felt that this was a test for Li Jing for them, an opportunity to accept the name. After this battle, the relationship between Zhen Donghai and Shamen Town must have become closer, and at that time, they were really Li Jing's own family.

Is it worth it? He had asked Whitebeard before leaving. The old master's answer is worth it, no matter how big the price is. They had been horse thieves or bandits and pirates for generations, but in the end they never had a good death. The brothers under his command died at sea, licking blood at the tip of the knife, and the only ones who were lucky enough to survive until they died of old age were those who were disabled in the early years of battle, and the more brave the pirates, the sooner they died and did not live long. A thief for one day, a thief for life, and a thief for generations to come. Whitebeard wants to give future generations a different future, so he can only do this, and he can't trust others when he takes refuge, but Li Jing is a credible person.

But if you really want the descendants of the pirates to have a better background in the future and avoid dying in the storm, the premise of all this is that Li Jing can go further, and if he refuses it, everything is just a phantom. Right now, the most important thing is to help Li Jing win this battle.

The old boss has stayed in Shamen Town with hundreds of old brothers to retire, and his daughter Megan and the daughter Julie of the third boss have also become the commander of Li Jing's fleet, commanding the warships of the official army as the daughter of the pirates. He is even looking forward to the day when his daughter will marry Li Jing as a concubine. I hope that in the tall town of Shamen Town, there will be a small courtyard with blue bricks and green tiles that belongs to him.

These are all given by Li Jing, and all they will pay is the loyalty of the pirates. Perhaps the casualties in this battle will be heavy, but if they win, they will win a better future.

Right now, he needs the blessing of the gods, he needs a good fortune, bless him, and bless Li Jing.

The green smoke from the burning of countless incense burns fills the shore, churning and writhing. The wind stirred up the smoke and hung over the people's heads. The people present were shrouded in smoke, and although they were breathing uncomfortably, their hearts were extremely happy. Shrouded in cigarette smoke, this is the most auspicious omen, and the gods are bless them.

Dressed in dark red leather armor and wearing a long blood-red cloak on his shoulders, and his eyes burned with raging flames, as if the flames of war were burning, he drew his sword and said loudly: "The cigarette shrouds my body, this is the gods' answer to our sincere prayers, and he will always bless us." Draw your swords and swords, brethren, and prepare for battle. ”

Redbeard and Blackbeard drew their swords at the same time and shouted in unison. In fact, the pirates raised their weapons and shouted in unison.

All the pirates were ignited with a fighting spirit, and Yellowbeard took the opportunity to have dozens of important captives left behind in the one-eyed Jiaojiao's lair, all of whom were leaders or family members of the leaders. Among them, the three-year-old son and the young concubine of the one-eyed Jiao were also brought forward.

"Behead them, sacrifice the flag!"

With a loud roar, dozens of burly pirate men stepped forward with ring-headed broadswords and cut off their heads with a sharp sword. The black skull banner of the town of Donghai was held to the front, and the executioners carried the severed head and dripped blood on the white skull pattern on the flag, dyeing it red.

"Blood sacrifice skull flag, victory!" Yellowbeard raised the banner with his own hands and shouted loudly, and all the pirates shouted in unison, "Victory!" ”

The black skull banner was erected, the incense offered to the gods was burned to the end, and Yellowbeard ordered all the captives to be taken aboard the ship, and the statue of the god of the sea was also removed from the ship. When the pirates boarded the ship one after another, Blackbeard stared at the warship and said, "Can we win?" ”

"Yes, the victory is ours." Yellowbeard also stared at the warship road.

"But the price must be high, is it worth it?" Redbeard said on the side.

"No matter how expensive it is, it is necessary, and this path is our own choice, isn't it?"

"Yes."

All three fell silent.

After the silence, Yellowbeard asked people to call Duan Shan, "Brother Duan, the battle is about to begin, and you should also give us the decisive thing that General Ji Yu asked you to bring." When he went to sea, Li Jing told Yellowbeard that he had a batch of secret weapons handed over to Duan Shan to carry, and said that these weapons were very powerful, and if they were used well, they could play a decisive role. However, he didn't tell him what the weapon was on the spot, and after arriving at Iron Mountain, these things had been on the ships of the special operations team, heavily guarded, and although Yellowbeard was looking forward to it, he couldn't see it.

"It's time to show you all the masters, but don't be surprised." Duan Shan's leopard-like head shook lightly and grinned.

These secret weapons had already been transferred to the shore by Duan Shan, and they were being stored in a hidden cave on the shore at this time. Outside the entrance of the cave is a small temporary camp for the special combat team, and more than a dozen tents just surround the entrance of the cave.

Entering the cave, what you see is rows of neatly stacked willow chests. Duan Shan gently hugged a box, as careful as holding a young baby. This action couldn't help but make Yellowbeard and the others even more curious about this secret weapon, what kind of weapon still needs to be so careful?

(PS: Can you guess what this secret weapon is?) It's been a long time since I've asked for a recommendation vote, everyone give a point, and there will be an honor with 30,000 votes soon! (To be continued.) )
