The misty waves are vast and the warm sun is shining brightly, on the waterway of Qiongzhou Strait in southern China.
The sails are dotted with shadows, the oars are sounding, and the ferries going south and north are busy.
On the deck of a single-masted ship, a girl in a green dress was leaning on the railing to watch the sea view.
Under the mast on the side, there was also a snow-white horse tied The horse is truly divine and graceful.
The girl has black hair like a waterfall, a black cloak on her shoulders, and a red cloth tied up her hair.
She does not apply makeup, but she is naturally beautiful and radiant, and her expression is even more beautiful. It's high-spirited.
She looked at the rippling sea with interest, the passenger ships coming with the wind,
and the soaring seabirds, her face full of novelty and excitement.
In addition to this girl, there were also two or three passengers on the deck, pointing and looking at the scenery.
Soon the boat reached midstream, and it was close to noon.
"Oh no, the pirates are coming..." Suddenly there were several shouts from the front, full of panic. meaning.
The girl in green dress, who was lost in thought, frowned slightly and looked at the source of the sound.
I saw a three-masted ship breaking through the waves, still a hundred feet away from our own ship. The word "Nangong" could be read on the bow.
At this moment, there were many people on the big ship, and many servants and maids ran out of the second floor attic.
Immediately, "Dang Dang Dang Dang" sounded from the observation deck. There was a crisp sound of gongs, and the two sides of the first deck were filled with strong men in black clothes holding guns and clubs.
The girl in the green skirt turned around and walked to the white horse, gently stroked the horse's head with her hand, and comforted: "Xue'er, be good, don't be afraid, I'm here."
The white horse" "Xue'er" seemed to understand the girl's thoughts, she raised her head and neighed in a low voice, then lightly kicked her hooves a few times.
At this time, someone next to me was heard talking: "That is the merchant ship of the Nangong family, one of the top businessmen in Qiongzhou Prefecture. Who dares to provoke him? I am afraid that Tai Sui will cause trouble and ask for trouble!" "
"That's not true. Didn't you hear that the pirates are coming? If the people don't fight with the officials, and the rich don't fight with the bandits, it's hard to say who will suffer. "
"I don't know! Who are these bandits? Are they coming for the Nangong family? Don't let Chi Yu get hurt. It would be terrible if we get robbed..."
During the conversation, the boatmen at the helm and the oars stopped. Come down and don’t dare to drive any further.
The building boat in front was still full of wind and headed south quickly.
Suddenly there were two loud "bang bang" sounds, and two artillery shells roared in, landing on the water on the left and right sides of the building ship, causing water to rise into the sky.
All the female family members on the cabin screamed in surprise, and the lanterns hanging by the balcony of the cabin could not help shaking.
Only a few loud shouts were heard floating in the wind: "Stop the boat, stop the boat, and quickly furl the sail!"
"If you don't stop, we will bomb the boat!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the boss of the ship hurriedly ordered the helmsman to turn around, raise the sail, and prepare to escape back.
The girl in the green skirt raised her sword eyebrows and shouted loudly: "Why are you running? You are not allowed to go back, so as not to delay everyone's schedule!"
The boat boss heard this and said dissatisfied: "You girl is really ignorant. It's so dangerous ahead. Are you eager to go up and die?"
Other boat passengers also accused the girl of being ignorant and told the boss of the boat to ignore her and save their lives.
The girl pulled out the sword from her waist with a swish and said loudly: "You water bandits and pirates, what do you have to be afraid of? I will keep you safe!"
< p> A passenger asked: "How do you guarantee it? Why should we believe you?"The girl jumped up and flew up to the mast like a roc. She clamped the mast between her legs and volleyed in front of the sky. pour.
She casually swung the blade of her sword, cut the canvas cable, and said crisply: "With the Purple Rainbow Sword in my hand, I will kill one of the pirates, and I will kill a pair of pirates!"
When everyone saw this young girl’s skills, they all kept silent. They didn’t know where she was from or how sacred she was.
The boatmen all looked at the boat boss. The boat boss was in a dilemma when he suddenly heard another cannon shot and hurriedly looked up with everyone.
A red light rose in front of my eyes, and the pirate ship actually hit the main sail of the building with a cannon. The upper part of the main mast was broken and the canvas burned.
The boat slowed down, and there was a moment of chaos on the boat. Many servants hurriedly went to put out the fire with brooms and buckets.
The girl in the green skirt was even more furious when she saw this, and she cursed bitterly: "You pirate, you are so tyrannical, I must punish you!"
Urged the captain: " Uncle, hurry up and rush over, I will kill all the pirates!"
The boss of the ship, the ship's crew, the sailors, and the ship's passengers were all frightened, their hands and feet were weak, and they could not even sit up. Yes, no one paid attention to the girl.
The girl was so anxious that she rushed up to the mast, tugged at the canvas and swung it around, shouting: "Go, go, go!"
If they weren't still dozens of feet apart, I'm afraid she will fly over to help.
But when I heard a noise and shouting ahead, it turned out that two two-masted pirate ships had already trapped the high-rise ship.
Dozens of pirates on the pirate ship threw long ropes and flying claws. He hooked the mast of the building ship and the railing of the parapet and pulled hard.
The guards and servants in the building ducked one after another, or raised their swords to cut off the ropes.
However, the pirates were well-trained, and they threw their flying claws in rows, quickly and accurately, and soon they pulled the ship together.
As soon as the whistle sounded, all the pirates jumped onto the ship and started killing the guards and servants.
The women and maids on the second floor were so frightened that they hid in the cabin.
At this time, the ferries in the nearby waters had already seen the opportunity to escape and hid far away.
Only the ferry where the girl in the green skirt was was still swaying and hesitating.

The boss of the boat said anxiously: "Sister-in-law, please don't embarrass everyone and let us leave this wrong place."
The girl said with a cold face: "Now this boat The sail can't be hoisted, and you can't outrun the pirates. I said I'll keep you safe, what are you afraid of?"
She then turned over, gently landed on the ship's board, and reached out to take out the sack. I threw an ingot of about five taels of silver to the boat boss,
and said, "Ask the boatman to rock the boat forward and get closer to the big ship. This ingot of silver will be yours."
The captain of the ship couldn't help but hesitate when he looked at the white money. It was worth half of his monthly income.
However, the pirates were so vicious that they were afraid of losing their lives. It's too late, how can anyone commit suicide?
He immediately refused and said: "I'm sorry, girl, I'm afraid we can't afford this job. You're asking us to die!"
He turned to the three boatmen and said: "Brothers, are you willing to earn this money?"
The three boatmen looked at each other and shook their heads slowly.
The captain of the ship said to the dozen or so passengers: "Dear guests, are you willing to take the risk and go forward?"
The faces of the passengers turned pale and they shook their heads.
The girl paused slightly and was about to get angry when she heard a scream from a distance:
"Stop! If you have offended Nangong Company, you are not afraid of being destroyed. "?"
The girl hurriedly set up a pergola to get a closer look, but saw a woman in red shirt standing on the second floor platform of the building, wearing a veil, patting the railing and shouting.
"Hahaha..." There was a burst of laughter on the sea, and then a man's voice shouted: "Stop it!"
Pirates who jumped from the pirate ship to fight with the guard servants When they heard the sound, they stopped and jumped back, but they still watched the deck eagerly.
Both the bodyguards and the pirates had their own casualties. They hurriedly helped the injured to retreat and confronted the pirates.
At this time, another large boat climbed onto the building from behind. A black shadow flashed, and a burly man in brocade clothes appeared next to the woman in red.
The girl in the green skirt was slightly startled. This man had superb physical skills and excellent light skills. It was obvious that he was a master of martial arts and should be the leader of the pirates.
The woman in red shirt was also startled, took two steps back and asked, "Who are you, sir? Can you tell me?"
The man in brocade clothes chuckled and said, "Tell me. It doesn't matter to you, I am Li Feiyu, the owner of Bailong Island. Are you Nangong Huiyue, the eldest daughter of the Nangong family?"
The woman in red shirt was even more frightened: "You... you are Hai Falcon?Li Feiyu? You...how did you know our itinerary? "
Li Feiyu laughed again: "It seems that you have admitted that you are Nangong Huiyue. Okay, okay, come with me! "
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the right arm of the woman in red shirt.
Nangong Huiyue, the woman in red shirt, stepped back and shouted: "You are not allowed to touch me! I won't go with you! "
Two servants behind her rushed out to protect the young lady and shouted: "The thief is brave! Don't offend my lady! "
Li Feiyu sneered and kicked the servant in the chest. The two servants were like two sandbags, knocked out of the railing and fell on the lower deck.
People around the deck The pirates raised their arms and cheered, shouting: "Boss is mighty! "The island owner is mighty!" "
Nangong Huiyue turned around hurriedly and was about to run into the cabin, but was grabbed by Li Feiyu and pulled back, hugging her to his chest.
He laughed and said: "I heard that Miss Nangong is the most beautiful woman in Qiongzhou, and the country is beautiful and fragrant. I would like to feast my eyes and enjoy it today. "
His left hand was about to lift her veil.
Nangong Huiyue struggled hard, but couldn't break free, and said angrily: "Bitch thief! If you dare to humiliate me today, I would rather die! "
At this time, three more servants who were putting out the fire ran downstairs and beat Li Feiyu with sticks, shouting: "Let go of my lady." "
Without looking back, Li Feiyu quickly pulled out a few steel darts from his waist and shot them out with his backhand.
Hearing several screams of "Ouch, ouch", the three servants He was hit in the chest and fell to the ground.
Li Feiyu gave the order: "Brothers, listen carefully. The old rules are that the men will go to the sea, the women will be brought back to the island to be happy, and the property on the ship will be divided equally. ”
“Okay! The island owner is wise. "The pirates immediately rejoiced and surrounded the guards and servants on both sides of the ship.
The girl in the green skirt looked anxious from a distance. She gritted her teeth and ran to the oar console at the stern of the ship.
She inserted her sword back, pushed the two boatmen away, grabbed the handle of the oar with both hands, and shook it vigorously.
But she had never rocked the oar before, and she was as fierce as a tiger in maneuvering the ferry. Spin in circles.
The boat boss shook his head and said: "Girl, don't be stubborn, even if you catch up, it will only be a waste of your life! "
The girl said angrily: "If the people on that boat were your wife, daughter, or relatives and friends, would you refuse to save her? "
The captain of the ship was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said: "Okay, the girl is so righteous, which makes me, a gentleman, feel ashamed.
"I will risk my life and help the girl."
After saying this, he went to the stern of the boat to hold the rudder, adjusted the balance of the boat, and pointed the bow towards the direction of the building.
Said: "Girl, you are a martial arts practitioner and your understanding should be good.,
"When rocking the oar, use both hands evenly and not biased;
"Control the oar handle. When the oar enters the water, the blades stand upright. When the water comes out, the blades lie flat, like a grinding disc. Repeatedly. . "
The girl was a very smart person, and gradually understood the secrets of the boat boss's guidance.
She rocked the boat better and better, and quickly rowed towards the place of battle.
