   Chapter 451 The people on the boat

   The two boatmen standing beside the cable clenched the daggers in their hands. According to Shao Mingyuan's instructions, once the situation changed, they would cut the cable as soon as possible.

  Ye Luo jumped onto the boat and entered the cabin with agility, without even making a sound.

   Chenguang whispered in Shao Mingyuan's ear: "Ye Luo entered the cabin, I wonder if you found anything?"

   Shao Mingyuan pursed his lips and said nothing.

   Of course he knew that Chenguang was euphemistically telling him Ye Luo's situation, but he couldn't see that it was more difficult than he originally expected, just like a bird with its wings cut off, so cruel.

   After a full two quarters of an hour, Ye Luo appeared in everyone's sight when everyone waited and felt uneasy, and there was another person on his back.

  Ye Luoluo was the best of all Shao Mingyuan's guards. Although he had one more person on his back, he was still extremely flexible and quickly jumped onto the boat.

   "What's the situation?" Shao Mingyuan asked with an expressionless face.

"General, there are a total of eighteen people in the ship. Except for the one who came back from the humble post, everyone else died, all from knife wounds." Ye Luo put down the people who came back and continued to report, "This The man only had injuries on his shoulders, but his clothes were stiff, so he must have fallen into the water. After a test from his humble position, he still has a faint breath."

   "I'll take a look." Qiao Zhao walked over and squatted down to check the person Ye Luo had brought back.

   The man lying on the deck was around thirty years old, tall, with white wounds on his shoulders, his eyes were closed, and his breath was extremely weak.

  Qiao Zhao immediately took a pill from his purse and stuffed it into his mouth, and then punctured the acupoints with silver needles.

After    a stick of incense passed, the man slowly woke up.

   He opened his eyes, and after the initial daze, he saw Yang Houcheng and others clearly, and he was about to get up when he moved, but he was exhausted and fell back to the deck.

   "Who are you?" The man asked with a look of alertness as he touched his waist, empty and not touching anything.

   "You don't know who we are?" Chi Can frowned.

  The man was stunned: "Why would I know?"

   Chi Can sneered: "Of course it's your savior! If we hadn't rescued you from that boat, do you think you'd still be alive now?"

   The man was stunned and looked around in a hurry. He found that all around him were tall and tall young people. He immediately lowered his head and glanced at his shoulders. The wounds on his shoulders had been simply bandaged.

   He was stunned for a while, and then the vigilance in his eyes faded, and he said gratefully, "Thank you for your life-saving grace."

   "You don't need to be polite, tell me who you are." Chi Can said impatiently.

   "I—" The man opened his mouth and frowned in pain, "Can you give me some water to drink first?"

   "Here, water." Yang Houcheng motioned to a Jin Wuwei to hand over a kettle.

  The man stretched out his hand to grab it, but found that his hand was weak, and looked at Yang Houcheng as if asking for help.

   Yang Hou admitted that he had taken the water bottle and handed it to the man's lips to feed him.

   Ming Tingquan and Shi Xi are both there, why is this person looking for him? Look at him talking well, don't you think?

   After the man finished drinking the water, Yang Houcheng asked, "Can we talk now?"

   The man said embarrassedly: "Can you give me something to eat?"

   "You can only drink porridge." Qiao Zhao's voice sounded, and then he said to Ah Zhu, "Go to the kitchen and bring him a bowl of porridge."

   After drinking the porridge, the man finally said, "We...we are sea merchants...and we encountered Japanese pirates. They jumped on our boat and killed all my brothers..."

   "Marine merchants?" Chi Can raised his eyebrows, "The Daliang Law stipulates that private individuals are not allowed to engage in maritime trading activities, no, even the official shipping department has been suspended for many years, where is the maritime merchant?"

   The man's face changed, and he said, "Young master must not be from the south, right? There are so many sea merchants like us now..."

   "Tell me first, how did you escape the Japanese pirates? All of your brothers were killed by the sword, only your shoulder was slightly injured." The woman's calm voice sounded.

The man turned his eyes to look at Qiao Zhao, there was a flash of light in his eyes, and he explained, "Those Japanese pirates are too powerful. After I injured my shoulder, I jumped into the sea and waited for the Japanese pirates to leave. Climb into the boat, and when I wake up, it's here."

   "What kind of cargo did you bring on board?" Qiao Zhao asked again.

   The man's eyes flashed: "Porcelain..."

   "No, our men checked your ship and found no china."

   "It must have been taken away by the Japanese pirates!" the man shouted angrily.

  Qiao Zhao stared down at the man lying on the deck, suddenly crouched down, and said calmly, "You lied."

   The man's eyes narrowed: "Girl what do you mean?"

   "I already asked the people we checked on board when you were in a coma. There was no straw, rice bran, etc. left in your cabin, so your cargo is definitely not porcelain."

Porcelain is delicate, and the boxes filled with porcelain will be stuffed with straw, rice bran and other fillers to prevent collisions. If these people are sea merchants selling porcelain, how can there be no straw, rice bran, etc. Woolen cloth?

   Hearing Qiao Zhao's words, the man immediately changed his tune, "I remembered it wrong, we have switched to selling cloth during this time—"

  Qiao Zhao waved his hand to interrupt him, stood up directly, and asked lightly, "Do you know why we kept you on the deck after we rescued you?"

  The girl's tone was casual, but the man didn't dare not to return. After thinking about it, he asked, "Is it because I'm so dirty that I'm afraid of soiling the mattress—"

   The girl smiled slightly, shook her head and said, "No, because it is convenient for us to throw you into the sea to feed the fish at any time."

   As soon as these words came out, the man's face changed immediately.

   Yang Houcheng's eyes widened in astonishment, and he thought to himself: If it's such a terrible thing, is it really okay for Miss Li to say it so calmly? Hey, I don't know if other girls are like this too!

   Chi Can curved the corners of his lips with a look of approval.

   Shao Mingyuan lowered his eyes and said nothing, but there was a small smile on his lips.

   "Girl, girl, stop joking..."

   "I'm never joking, I'm very serious, I always say one thing and two things." Qiao Zhao turned to Shao Mingyuan, "Brother Shao, can I borrow someone from you?"

   "Of course." The moment he heard the words "Big Brother Shao", although he knew that Qiao Zhao was trying to avoid exposing his identity in front of outsiders, Shao Mingyuan felt warm in his heart, but his face remained silent.

   Miss Qiao gritted her teeth secretly.

  This bastard, pretending to be quite similar, she wants to see how long he pretends to be in front of her!

  's anger at someone made Qiao Zhao's tone even more indifferent: "Ye Luo, bring this person up and I'll ask him one more thing, if he just lies, you immediately throw him into the sea."

   "Yes." Ye Luo picked up the man with one hand without hesitation.
