The Book of Troubled Times Chapter 565

Chapter 565 The dissipating fog

From the beginning of this battle, the scene has always been so psychedelic that there is supportable basis for guessing in any direction.

The pirate group has been waiting for Sanniang as the "third leader" for so many years. Hai Qianfan has always only called himself the "acting leader". When Sanniang comes back, he will automatically give up power and has no intention of fighting for power. If he wants to control the pirate group, it's really just like playing for fun. Sanniang won't compete with him at all. Is it necessary to act like this?

What's more, after so many years, there have been iterations within the pirate group. The education that newcomers have always heard is that there is a third-in-command who is out there, and they have to follow it when they come back. This can't be acted out either. You can tell the attitude of the pirates at a glance.

In the past few years, the pirate group has been secretly trading to make money for the Four Elephant Cult. They have always been diligent and diligent, and even the amount of black money they tacitly allowed them to take was very small. When they came this time, Sanniang realized that the power of faith accelerated the recovery of the Sea King, and asked them to persuade the fishermen and merchants to return to Xia Kingdom.

　　They are all loyal subordinates no matter how you look at them.

 The most important thing is that the last time we were attacked at night by the Sea Tribe, it was really serious. Not only did the pirates suffer heavy casualties in that battle, countless elite members of the sea clan were also killed there. The powerful shark-men and water-men with one less crystal core were all destroyed there, and ordinary fishmen were littered with corpses. The sea was littered with death and injuries.

 Could this be staged?

I would say that the acting was done to deceive Sanniang, but she didn't deceive her at all. The battle between Sanniang and the water man was so stalemate that there was no conspiracy.

This time it seems that the pirates and Penglai teamed up to kill the small country's fleet, but suddenly they were doing it to help the Poseidon?

 Isn't this baffling? Why can't you trust them for once and think there's another reason?

For example, because the two families originally came from the same source and secretly reached some kind of conspiracy for maritime hegemony, the pirates may not even know that there was a sacrifice. Moreover, this kind of conspiracy must have been in contact a long time ago, and it cannot be reached recently, so it has nothing to do with Sanniang.

Even if you guess that Penglai and the pirate group are a family from beginning to end, and they were separated into two sides in order to deceive the Poseidon, it makes perfect sense.

 How to judge whether to trust Hai Qianfan once?

When Zhao Changhe communicated this matter with Sanniang secretly, Sanniang couldn't make a choice, but still replied with those three words: "It's up to you."

As long as you are willing to listen, Guigui is cute. When your brain is down, you are willing to hand over the decision-making power to others instead of being stubborn.

Once it is left to Zhao Changhe to judge, he has no friendship with the pirates, so he will naturally not be disturbed by emotions. He only needs to do a test. Forced by Hai Changkong, he didn't use his left sword or right sword. He just hid his weakness and looked like he could be crushed by adding a handful of straw, waiting to catch fish.

 Sure enough, it's all done once you catch it.

Hai Qianfan is already over fifty. He was Hai Pinglan's guard commander back then. He is several years older than the young Hai Changkong. Now his beard has turned gray, and his majestic and gray beard looks really upright.

At this moment, facing Sanniang's angry fist, Hai Qianfan took half a step back and slashed diagonally: "The princess was injured before and has not recovered. Just now she focused on defeating the water man, and now she is injured again... It's better not to be so angry. .”

  "Bang!" The fist force and the sword light intersected, and both sides took a few steps back. Sanniang covered the unhealed bone wound under her ribs with a cold expression.

Hai Qianfan didn't feel well either. The difference in physical strength was here. A punch that hurt him still made him tremble inside and almost vomited blood.

He took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Changhe who was facing the siege of Hai Changkong and Hua Zhenming with his swords, and said slowly: "Master Zhao, it is actually very dangerous to test like this. If you are not careful, you have already injured Hai Changkong's hand." Here. The reason for doing this must be that I am the enemy and would rather take some risks to force me to be exposed. Can I ask Young Master Zhao the reason? I want to know where I have exposed my flaws. Is it because of this incident? A naval battle? The cause of this naval battle really has nothing to do with what you two think."

Sanniang glanced at Zhao Changhe and wanted to know his reason.

Zhao Changhe forced Hua Zhenming away with his sword and said with a smile: "My confusion started with this Brother Hua... The night the base was attacked by the Hai clan at night, Sanniang was just here and she was not in charge of the fleet. She didn't expect to go It is not surprising to relocate the people on Taiping Island, but as a pirate captain who often needs to move around elusively, this must be the first reaction, but Brother Hua did not think of this... It is difficult for me to understand such a fatal mistake, What's even more difficult to understand is that Senior Hai didn't even show anger and blame afterward.”

Hua Zhenming had a sullen face and his offensive became more and more crazy. Unfortunately, his strength was indeed weaker and he could not pose any threat to Zhao Changhe.

Hai Changkong, on the other hand, was very interested in not using any special moves. He was clinking his swords with Zhao Changhe like he was practicing martial arts. He seemed to be very interested in Zhao Changhe's remarks and was waiting for updates. "I can only understand that Taiping Island is what you want to give up and give to the Sea Tribe. Maybe it is given to them to eat to strengthen this new ethnic group... Every race always needs to eat. They have mutations. What will you eat after you gain wisdom?"

 The expressions of the onlookers changed drastically.

"Of course, I think this is a bit of a conspiracy theory. It's hard to express it openly, but it makes me look like a villain. Others just make one mistake and get on the line...so I didn't mention this matter to Sanniang." Zhao Changhe continued. : “But there's something that happens next that I really don't understand.”

Hai Qianfan asked in a deep voice: "Which one?"

"Commander Hai Changkong said that there are spies among the pirates. They already know the location of the new base where the pirates will move... This is outrageous. This period of time is really not long. It will take you several days to move. This is what you just When you move to a new place, you must immediately send someone to report to the Marine Commander that you are safe. This is how you can deliver information in such a timely manner - if someone sneaks out of the ship and leaves as soon as you move to a new place, and none of you can find it, then how on earth can the pirate group survive? Today? Is Uncle Hai going to tell Sanniang that you are a waste and you only got here because of luck?"

Hai Qianfan stopped talking.

Zhao Changhe said: "So I have reason to suspect that the one who reported the message was not a spy, but you yourself. Even the method of reporting the message was not by sending a ship, but by the so-called sea people who transmitted the image. Your message speed is far faster than that of ordinary people. This Perhaps this is the main reason why you have not been wiped out by other forces in the past ten years in the East China Sea, but have become more and more prosperous. Otherwise, the development of the pirate group is better than that of other countries. It is too dreamy... You are basically the official royal pirate group of Penglai. The split back then was just a show.”

He paused and sighed: "I want to believe what you just said: 'The cause of this naval battle really has nothing to do with what you two thought.' Perhaps it is true. The cause of this naval battle is that Penglai began to close the line. Take advantage of this great opportunity of 'Poseidon's Proclamation to Suppress Bandits' to unify the East China Sea."

This time even Hai Changkong couldn't help but sigh: "Wonderful. Is there anything more?"

 Looking like a book fan, I still want to hear more.

"Although there is, I don't know anymore." Zhao Changhe said: "Penglai wants to unify the East China Sea, and the Sea Emperor will not agree. This involves the game between the Dragon King and the Sea Emperor. Some of you listen to the Dragon King, and some rely on Going to Poseidon has created a very psychedelic situation...Sanniang and I accidentally got involved, and because of Sanniang's identity, your tendencies have changed and become even more bizarre. As for what you think in your heart , I am not a roundworm in your belly, how can I possibly know? Now that I have told so many stories, can you return a few words and clarify my doubts?"

Hai Changkong laughed: "If all the characters in Middle-earth were like this, I would hide in the sea for the rest of my life and don't go up there."

At about the same time, far away in Penglai, the Dragon King Hai Pinglan was receiving Xia Chichi, the saint of the Four Symbols Sect, and the two parties were drinking and talking.

I don't know how much he said before, but Xia Chichi's expression at this moment was as dumbfounded as the crowd on Dong'an Island: “Is Sanniang your daughter?”

 “She didn't tell you?”

Xia Chichi scratched his head: "I joined the religion late, and I haven't met Uncle Xuanwu very often. These things have indeed not been told to me. Er, no, I doubt that Master Suzaku didn't know either. Before I came, Master Suzaku The author didn't even mention this matter.”

Hai Pinglan chuckled: "She doesn't recognize me and doesn't want to talk about the past. Aren't you the same?"

Xia Chichi narrowed his eyes: "Your Majesty knows my affairs very well, right?"

Hai Pinglan said nonchalantly: "The Wang family guessed it, I think it's pretty close to ten."

Xia Chichi admitted very bachelorly: "I don't recognize him because he is not worthy. Why does my uncle disown you?"

"Because I am not worthy either." Hai Pinglan said calmly: "I personally suppressed her, sent people to hunt her down, and told Changkong to kill her without mercy. If you kill her, maybe the prince will be yours."
