When he woke up, it was already late in the morning. An old man smoking a pipe was sitting in the yard. Luo Kai was not surprised and asked softly, "Is Er Ya better?"
The old man shook his head bitterly: "I was frightened, and I haven't recovered for a while."
The old man is the village chief of the fishing village and the grandfather of Er Ya. Luo Kai sent Er Ya back last night and told him everything that happened.
The old village chief looked at Luo Kai's body full of scars, opened his mouth to say something, and finally said, "That... Xiao Kai, thank you."
"No need to thank me."
Luo Kai waved his hand and frowned at his broken clothes. He was thinking about finding a needle and thread to mend them. The fishing village is very short of supplies, and the clothes need to be changed from other fishermen.
"Hey, this is all my fault. Jiu Yuan village came over two years ago and said that they wanted to buy our village. I know that Jiu Yuan village is deeply entangled with pirates, so I didn't agree. I didn't expect that they are still playing for the village."
The old village chief smoked a pipe and sighed: "In the early years, pirates were rampant along the coast, burning and looting everywhere. Later, they were driven out by the Navy led by the Great Lord. Now it seems that there is a trend of a comeback. Poor, when the time comes, it will be our people who suffer."
"Don't you care about this?" Luo Kai washed the blood-stained clothes last night in the basin.
"The Jiu Yuan village has more than 10,000 soldiers. They can make machine gunpowder by themselves. They have become a country within a country. It's too late to curry favor with them. How dare they manage it? Alas!"
Luo Kai was not interested in these things. He nodded and stopped talking.
The old village chief whispered: "Xiao Kai, you... Those people are the tax collectors of the county, and they are involved in the Jiu Yuan village. They will not give up. Do you want to go outside and hide?"
Luo Kai did not care: "It's OK, I'm not afraid."
As the saying goes, the skilled are bold. As his strength grew, he became more confident in himself. Moreover, this place was backed by the sea. Even if he couldn't beat them, he could hide in the sea and no one could do anything to him.
The old village head was still nagging, "I'm going to send Erya to her parents in the county capital. There are many young people in the village working there. If you go there, there will be someone to take care of you. After a year and a half, no one will pursue this matter."
…
In the evening, Luo Kai sat on the Sea-Gazing Cliff and gazed at the sparkling surface of the sea. He felt at a loss. Deep in his heart, he had always resisted this world. He thought that he could live a peaceful life in this fishing village, but the world was often not as he wished.
He lowered his head and looked at the iron ring on his finger. He thought about his incredible adaptability in the sea. It was all thanks to the Water Repelling Totem that he was able to survive. He had to complete Shui Sou's task. It was time to leave this place.
But before leaving, he must get something to report to the simple fishermen in the fishing village. He picked up the harpoon on the side and jumped into the sea again. There was a ripple, and the track of the sea water stirred by the fish and shrimp in the water was clearly passed into his mind.
An hour later, Luo Kai jumped to the coast with five fat fresh fish hanging on his body and slowly walked to the village. The distance was getting closer and closer. A violent gunshot suddenly sounded, mixed with countless heart-wrenching screams.
Luo Kai's heart tightened and he hurried to the small fishing village. Over a small hill, the fire in front illuminated the dark night sky. The small fishing village surrounded by hills had completely turned into a sea of fire. A team of men in black short-sleeved shirts armed with guns were wantonly killing.
Several black-clothed men dragged a bloodied woman with disheveled hair out of the house. The woman cried and begged for mercy, but the black-clothed men were not moved at all. They coldly shot the woman in the head …
Luo Kai's body trembled. He threw down the fresh fish hanging on his body and rushed to the entrance of the village like a cat. He had just taken a few steps when all the hair on his body stood up and his eyelids twitched. An indescribable sense of crisis filled his heart. His body instinctively moved slightly to the side.
"Swoosh."
A bullet hole appeared in front of him. Luo Kai was immediately covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly dodged behind a big rock. The speed of the bullet was far faster than a person's reaction speed. If it wasn't for the mysterious sixth sense warning, this shot would have hit him. His body couldn't withstand the bullet at this moment.
A small team of men in black had already surrounded this place. They wore black hoods, only revealing a pair of cold eyes.
Luo Kai suppressed his increasingly fast heartbeat and tried to calm his angry mind. This group of men in black drove the fishermen out of the house and shot them one by one. They were incomparably indifferent and didn't say a word. They were obviously well-trained killing machines. Why would such a remote fishing village attract such cold-blooded killers?
Seeing that the men in black had surrounded him in a fan shape, he didn't have a trace of nervousness or fear at this critical moment. Instead, he became calmer and calmer. His mind was rapidly thinking of a solution. The opponents were all armed with guns and were extremely vigilant. If he rushed out rashly, he would undoubtedly die.
Tonight, the night was dark without a trace of moonlight. Ordinary people would find it difficult to see in this dark night. However, Luo Kai was different. After more than a year in prison, his eyes had evolved a strong ability to adapt to the dark. Whether or not he could resist these men in black depended on this ability.
Luo Kai casually picked up a rock and threw it out. Then, his figure rushed out from the other side. He stimulated all his muscles to exert all his strength. His speed was really like an arrow leaving the bow. As he ran, he constantly changed his direction in an S-shaped zigzag pattern. It was impossible to predict. His ears could hear the continuous gunshots and the whooshing sound of bullets piercing through the air behind his head. If he was even a little bit slower, he would undoubtedly die.
The eyes of this group of men in black revealed a trace of horror. They were all strictly trained men of sacrifice. Each of them had god-like marksmanship. However, the person in front of them was not only as fast as a leopard, but also as slippery as a snake. Although the bullets were fast, they couldn't catch him. They could only watch him disappear into the night.
The men in black withdrew their long guns and looked at each other. Their eyes were extremely dignified. They didn't expect to meet such a person in this remote fishing village.
One of the men in black said coldly, "Mission completed. Leave immediately!"
"Yes!"
Luo Kai didn't go far. After getting rid of the gunmen, he immediately turned back. This time, he was more careful in hiding. He touched the fruit forest on the side of the fishing village. He finally knew why the fishing village suffered such a great disaster. It was because there was a man in the fishing village who didn't wear black. The man wore a pair of glasses and held a crutch. His face was ferocious as he looked at the hellish scene around him.
The man in glasses was one of the men in the valley in front. Unexpectedly, he didn't die. Instead, he led these ruthless killers and brought disaster to the fishing village.
Luo Kai was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He was too inexperienced. He didn't even check if there were any survivors last night!
