   Chapter 440 Whether to stay

  Chi Can put his arms around his chest and smiled coldly at the old man who was talking: "It's none of our business to get revenge from Japanese pirates?"

   "You guys, how can you do this? If you didn't kill these Japanese pirates, how could you attract the Japanese pirates to retaliate?" the old man said tremblingly.

  These outsiders are so scary, but now that the mayor is dead, no one dares to speak. He has to say that he still has several grandchildren to live.

   Chi Can sneered again: "Master, why don't you just say it directly, why don't we hand over the girls in our company? If we handed them over to the Japanese pirates just now, wouldn't it be fine?"

   What he said was obviously sarcasm, but many people who surrounded them showed a look of approval.

   Chi Can was furious: "So, you are not at fault, but it is everyone else's fault? Since this is the case, it is you, not us, who have come to take revenge, and we will let you die!"

  Yang Houcheng patted Chi Can on the shoulder: "Shi Xi, don't tell these people, they are not human at all."

   Chi Can pursed his lips.

   Talking to these people is really a waste of words.

"let's go."

  Chi Can directly stretched out his hand and pushed the old man away, and strode forward.

   Seeing that these outsiders ignored them and walked to the pier, the people in the town followed firmly, their faces filled with numbness and despair.

The old man was heartbroken, pushed his two little grandsons in front of Qiao Zhao and the others, and threw himself on his knees and kowtowed: "You guys, you can't go, you go, the Japanese pirates won't let us go. An old man like me is dead. It's nothing, beg the strong men to have pity on my grandson, they are still so young..."

  Two young children were pushed in front of so many people, and immediately burst into tears without the adults doing anything.

  Qiao Zhao and the others paused.

  The people in the town immediately fell to their knees and begged: "You can't go, you can't go—"

  Qiao Zhao and the others looked extremely ugly.

  Yang Houcheng looked back at the two Jin Wuwei.

   They carried the brother who died in the melee with the Japanese pirates not long ago.

   Before disembarking, everyone was in good spirits, but in the blink of an eye, a brother left just like that, and everyone else was injured, especially Ting Quan. His injury was caused by these people.

   Now, these people are on their knees begging them to stay.

   Ask them to stay and do what? Naturally, waiting for the Japanese pirates to come, so that they can be dealt with.

   Yang Houcheng's face darkened when he thought about this, but there were not only adults with numb expressions, but also children who didn't know the world.

   He hesitated, not knowing what to do, so he couldn't help but go to see Chi Can, but when he saw his usually lazy friend facing the crying child, he was equally at a loss.

  Yes, adults can be ignored, but who can't have any pity for children?

   Yang Houcheng opened his mouth: "Tingquan, Shixi, what should we do?"

  Chi Can looked gloomy and uncertain, and said lightly for a while: "You decide."

   Yang Houcheng raised his eyebrows in surprise.

   Others do not know friends, but he does. Shi Xi said this, in fact, he tacitly agreed to stay.

   "Tingquan, what do you think?"

   Shao Mingyuan looked at the old man: "Protecting you should be the responsibility of the local garrison and the government."

  The old man wiped away his tears: "But the government can't do anything about it. Those Japanese pirates are too powerful. Four or five officials can't beat a single Japanese pirate."

   "Four or five people can't beat a Japanese pirate, so what about ten people? How about dozens of people?" Shao Mingyuan asked calmly.

   Yang Houcheng was even more surprised.

   He thought that Shao Mingyuan would be the best speaker among the three of them.

  The old man was speechless when asked by Shao Mingyuan.

  The young general swept across the kneeling crowd with a pair of star eyes, and said lightly, "If you guys just threw stones at those Japanese pirates, I probably would have a reason to stay."

  Ci is not a soldier, he has never been a bad guy.

   He withdrew his gaze, nodded slightly to Yang Houcheng and Chi Can, and said solemnly, "Let's go!"

   After the initial surprise, the two followed silently.

  The decision of a friend will of course be respected.

   "Girl, girl, I beg you, you can't go!" The old man dragged his grandson to Qiao Zhao's feet, and the child fell at her feet because he was in a hurry.

   Qiao Zhao paused.

   Shao Mingyuan stopped and turned around to look at her.

   Zhaozhao, do you want me to stay? If you speak, I will stay.

  Qiao Zhao bent down to help the young boy up, patted the dust on his body, and handed it to the old man, with a calm expression: "I'll stay here only for the purpose of giving it to the Japanese pirates. My companion has already made a decision."

   Shao Mingyuan is the only one who can fight against the Japanese pirates. Other than his own willingness, why should others ask him to stay?

  Qiao Zhao passed the old man and walked to Shao Mingyuan's side.

   Shao Mingyuan smiled slightly: "Let's go."

   In the sound of pleadings from the townspeople, Qiao Zhao and his party came to the pier, boarded the boat, and gradually sailed to the sea.

   "Do you think I'm cruel?" Shao Mingyuan asked Qiao Zhao while leaning on the railing.

   He doesn't care what others think, but he only cares what the people in front of him think.

   The man who had bathed and changed his clothes was wearing a blue robe, which was very close to the color of the sea. In the setting sun, the waves in his eyes flowed like the sea, making it impossible to see the depth.

   "No." Contrary to Shao Mingyuan's expectations, the girl uttered these two words without any hesitation.

   At that moment, Shao Mingyuan's quietly suspended heart fell.

   He knew that the girl in front of him disdain to lie, she said no or no.

"Thickness can't be used, love can't be ordered, chaos can't be ruled, like a proud son, can't be used." Qiao Zhao looked at the man in front of him and smiled, "Mercy is not in charge of soldiers, I believe that you will be able to lead the army for many years. Make the most accurate judgment."

   Shao Mingyuan stared closely at the girl in front of him, his eyes burning.

After   , he wanted to kiss Zhaozhao again, but what should he do?

   He found that the more he got along with Zhaozhao, the weaker his self-control became, and he began to worry that he would not be able to endure the day of marriage.

  This girl is a treasure given to him by God, making him feel that all the hardships he has suffered in the past are worth it. Those experiences are all for this year, when he grows into a man who can stand upright without looking at people's faces, so that he can meet her calmly.

  Qiao Zhao took a step back vigilantly.

   What does he want to do with those eyes?

   This time, Shao Mingyuan didn't rely on his thick skin to make a mess. He leaned on the rail and looked at Haimendu, which was getting farther and farther away.

   He is used to being well-prepared for anything he does. Although he has never been to the south coast, he has some knowledge about it.

   Japanese pirates were rampant in the coastal areas, but there were not many organized ones. Most of them were warriors who couldn’t get along in the East and came to Daliang to seek a living.

   These rogues with amazing combat effectiveness have brought great disaster to the coastal people, but they are basically a team of a dozen or 20 people, and even a team of seven or eight people. So the retaliation that those feared is unlikely.

   "Zhao Zhao, I have a question for you."

   The fourth update, thanks to Xiaoshiji for the He's jade that he donated in March. There is no update today, don't wait any longer, ahem, if you feel bored waiting, you can vote. I recommend Shen Lingfei's "Rebirth of Spicy Army Wife". The opening chapter is quite interesting. Let's move to collect it:

   When a reborn female detective with no bottom line meets a serious and upright major who never forgets her...

   Major Gu: Are there some old accounts between us that we haven’t figured out?

   Xue Panpan held his waist after being liquidated: Gu Zhengyi, you are different!

   This is a happy story of a female hooligan who seduces men + abuses scum after the rebirth.
