Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen thought secretly in her heart, staring at the group of people without blinking.

The situation is still unclear and she needs to remain vigilant.

At this moment, Mu Hongzhou gently patted Ye Zifen's shoulder and motioned him to look forward.

Ye Zifen looked in the direction of Mu Hongzhou's finger and saw a tall figure standing on a high platform. He was wearing a black robe and a mysterious mask on his face, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

This man seemed to be the leader of the island, and he was directing his men to do something.

Ye Zifen couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She didn't know who this mysterious leader was, nor did she know why he tied these people here.

She could only hold Mu Hongzhou's hand tightly, hoping to find the answer.

Suddenly, the leader waved his hand.

Ye Zifen had no idea what this gesture meant, but at this moment, the tied people began to cry loudly, and from the few words she had learned, she could hear that they were begging desperately.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem to have any effect, and the other leader kept his head down and didn't say a word.

At this moment, those holding torches threw their torches towards the pile of firewood under the pillars without hesitation.

During the whole process, those people never stopped crying.

At first, only those torches that were thrown caught fire, but due to their large number, they soon succeeded in igniting the wood below.

Before long, the cries gradually turned into a creepy roar of pain, which continued to reach people's ears.

The methods of these pirates were indeed extremely cruel.

But Ye Zifen knew very well that without such severe punishment in such an environment, it would be impossible to deter these vicious people.

So Ye Zifen quietly observed those who were being tortured and silently counted their number.

Then he stopped watching and carefully pulled Mu Hongzhou towards the house above.

At this moment, the island's defense was obviously relaxed, and it was a good time for her to take a closer look at the situation above.

The architectural style of the houses throughout the island is completely different from that of Daxia. However, they all have special places for storing items, and they are also classified and organized.

In addition, Ye Zifen accidentally found the place where they stored weapons. Unfortunately, the mysterious iron thing was not found here. Maybe it was hidden somewhere else.

On the other side there was a room filled with all kinds of jewels and gold and silver, which emitted a dazzling light and dazzled the eyes.

However, they could only watch from a distance, because there was a huge water dungeon in front of the room, separating them from the precious items.

It was vaguely visible that there were people being held in the dungeon, and those people would waile from time to time.

They didn't dare to get close easily, but just took a look from a distance and left in a hurry.

Fortunately, Ye Zifen was not greedy at this time. She just wanted to come and see the situation here out of curiosity.

When she saw the gold, silver and treasures, she did not show much interest.

On the contrary, she developed a strong curiosity about the people in the dungeon.

She didn't know who these people were. Were they pirates? Or were they merchants captured by pirates?

So she decided to ignore the gold and treasures and focus on checking other places.

Of course, Ye Zifen also discovered that there was a room for storing wine here.

The room is filled with various wine bottles, each of which is crystal clear and beautiful like crystal.

She looked at the bottles carefully, but found that she did not recognize any of the wines.

She carefully picked up a bottle of wine and shook it gently, trying to read the label. However, due to the dim light, she could not read the words on it.

In desperation, she had to open the bottle cap, took a light sniff, and immediately smelled a strong aroma of wine.

She once heard her grandmother say that there was something called glass in this world, which was more transparent than colored glaze and was man-made.

The bottles appear to be made of glass, rather than traditional colored glaze.

She couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of this world, which could create such exquisite objects.

Although these wines were very tempting to Mu Hongzhou, Ye Zifen knew that now was not the time to enjoy them.

Pull her away.

There were also some other foods that were different from the food they had there, but she knew what they were called.

I didn't expect to find these things here.

Mu Hongzhou and Ye Zifen checked every place carefully but still did not find any pirates. It seemed that their guess was right.

At this moment, the shrill cries gradually weakened, as if swallowed by the night wind.

Ye Zifen realized that those people might have been burned to death.

She felt a surge of fear in her heart, worried that those people would turn back.

So, the two decided to enter the woods again, groping their way forward cautiously, hoping to return to where they parked the boat as soon as possible.

Before they reached the beach, they heard voices coming from afar.

Ye Zifen's heart tightened, knowing that things on the island were over.

She didn't dare to delay any longer and hurriedly quickened her pace with Mu Hongzhou.

When they boarded the boat and rowed hard for some distance, they finally saw the coastline clearly.

Every few meters, you can see a figure standing on the shore.

This made Ye Zifen feel fortunate. If they had not left early, they might have also become part of the water dungeon.

With the help of the faint moonlight, the two rowed the boat hard towards the big ship.

Before boarding the ship, they tied the boat to prevent it from being washed away by the waves.

When they finally got back to the ship, Mu Hongzhou and Ye Zifen breathed a sigh of relief. They collapsed in the cabin exhausted, thinking back to the thrilling scene. "Fortunately, we are fine..." Ye Zifen said with lingering fear.

"Yeah, it's a pity about the wine on the island. If I wasn't afraid of being a burden, I would definitely get some back!" Mu Hongzhou's face was full of regret.

Ye Zifen shook her head and quickly consoled him, "Let's go back to Lujia Village after we get back. I still have some wine left. I'll give it to you when the time comes."

Now Mu Hongzhou was satisfied. Although he could only drink it after returning home, the little girl was a man of her promises. The wine she brewed was delicious, so it was worth waiting for a while.

At dawn, the sun shone on the sea, making the waves sparkle. Several ships gathered on the sea, including the ship that Ye Zifen and Mu Hongzhou were on.

They returned to their original position and signaled the other ships to move forward.

The old captain began to steer the ship, and the ship slowly moved forward, and the ship behind followed.
