Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 304 The Sudden Pirates

"Stop chatting, Xiao Wu! Come and help me!"

At this moment, shouts came from not far away, and the person who was talking to Xiangling heard someone calling him, and realized that he still had something to do, so he smiled embarrassedly with Xiangling.

"I'm going to get busy first. Be careful here. Don't get too close to the edge of the boat, so as not to accidentally fall. At the current speed, if you fall into the sea, I'm afraid you won't be able to get back."

This Xiangling is still very clear. He has been very afraid of water since he was a child, and he also knows that if he falls into the water, he will definitely drown, so he has been very careful since he got on the boat.

And he is actually more interested in fishing, so after seeing Xiao Wu passing by, he immediately followed. They were already collecting the net at this time, and the moment they pulled the net up, Xiangling saw a lot. The fish, those fish were still alive just out of the water, flopping on the net non-stop.

"Today is indeed a bumper harvest! It seems to be twice as much as yesterday!"

Xiao Wu said excitedly while following everyone to put the fish into the barrel.

"It turns out that these fish are salvaged in this way. I have only seen fish in the river before. Everyone goes into the river barefoot to catch them. I never thought that fishing can be done like this."

Xiangling had never seen so many fish before, and such a sight could only be seen in such coastal areas.

"When will you be fishing in this place? Shouldn't you come here every day?"

After they put all the fish away, Xiangling went to ask.

The first one to answer him was Xiao Wu, he was considered to be the bolder one here, and those who were less courageous would not dare to talk to Xiangling, because everyone knew that he was His Highness the King of Shu.

Only Xiao Wu felt that there should be nothing. He should not have such a relationship with His Highness the King of Shu. Otherwise, he would not have come to their boat.

"We only come back to catch fish every seven days or so, and the people who fish each time are not fixed. Of course, except for me, because I am special, there are some things that only I can know. Without me, they have no way to go to sea. gone."

"That's right, to tell you the truth, we all rely on Xiao Wu when we go out to sea. His ability to distinguish directions is very strong, and he is also very familiar with this sea area. If it weren't for him, we would not dare to go out easily."

Immediately after Xiao Wu finished speaking, someone agreed, and Xiao Wu nodded embarrassingly.

"It's almost like this. In fact, it's okay not to take me, but for everyone's safety, I will still bring me, so every time I go to sea, I have to come with everyone, and I don't need to do anything special. Just tell them when they're lost or unsure of their way."

"I always feel that I have done too little compared to them, and I feel a little bit sorry."

Xiangling nodded half-understood, he really didn't understand these things, but it could be seen that he should be a very important person.

"So shall we go back now?"

Xiangling hasn't had enough fun at sea yet, so she doesn't want to go back.

Xiao Wu saw what Xiangling was thinking, so he nodded.

"It's a pity that we have to go back. The general will tell you if you go back late, but if you still want to come and play, I will take you with me when I go to sea next time."

Xiangling smiled instantly when he heard the song.

"That's all right."

Although Xiao Wu said so, he still had to ask Li Ke for his opinion at that time. After all, it was impossible for him to bring his people out directly. Thinking of this, he felt that he was under a lot of pressure.

The other people didn't care about the conversation of the two people here. After they collected all the fish, they continued to drive the boat back, but the trip was not as smooth as they imagined.

Xiang Ling was not always on the deck, because on their way back after catching fish, the wind was relatively strong, so he was pulled into the cabin to sit. Not long after he entered the cabin, the boat suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter? Are we here yet?"

Now I feel a little unbelievable, because it took a long time for them to come, how could they go back so soon?

The speed of the boat has not changed all the time. It is not the first time that Xiao Wu has encountered such a situation, so he still has a little experience, so he talked to Xiangling.

"It's okay, there may be something wrong, the higher-ups should be dealing with it, don't worry too much."

Xiao Wu did this, of course, just to comfort Xiangling. He knew what was going on up there. Usually, they encountered pirates. After encountering pirates, they had no way to move forward. Only after the matter is dealt with.

Generally, these pirates would rob the richer merchant ships. Usually, their own fishing boats would not be robbed, because they did not have any gold or silver treasures on board, but only fish.

No pirates will take risks for fishing boats, because this fish is everywhere in the sea, and they can also catch themselves.

If it's just for convenience, there's no need to spend manpower to rob, the risk is still relatively high, so Xiao Wu doesn't quite understand why the pirates would stare at their ship before.

But in any case, these things are not for him to consider, because the guards above are not vegetarians, and it is not a problem to deal with those pirates. What's more, what he has to do now is to stabilize Xiangling and not let Xiangling run around. .

If he ran out now, he would probably face his life. In view of his identity, he naturally wanted to protect the other party.

Everyone else thought the same way, so he was asked to protect Xiangling secretly early in the morning.

After Xiangling heard what Xiao Wu said, she didn't have any doubts, so she continued to stay in the cabin, but the good times didn't last long, and soon they heard the screams outside. If you yell, you know that something has definitely happened outside.

So Xiangling stood up immediately, planning to go to the deck to check the situation.

Seeing that Xiangling was about to leave, Xiao Wu ran over immediately, but he didn't dare to hold Xiangling back, so he had to pass him and stop in front of him.

"Where are you going?"

"Didn't you hear the screams outside? Something must have happened to everyone, how could I sit idly by?"

Faced with such a situation, it is impossible for Xiangling to continue sitting here. Even if he can't help, at least he has to go out and see what's going on. Besides, if something really goes wrong with the people outside If not, wouldn't it be more dangerous for them to stay here all the time?
