Chapter 4 The Pirates Enter the City

Li Yu on the side didn't seem to care, and still smiled and said to the angry Ying'er, "Okay! Let's find an inn to stay first. We have other business to do later!"

Ying'er finally let Jiang Feng go.

The three of them found a small inn and checked in. There were very few guests in the inn, and the rooms of the three of them were adjacent to each other. The innkeeper arranged everything for the three of them, and specifically told them, "It's best to sleep peacefully at night, no matter what

Don't worry about what happens outside, as long as you stay in your room, nothing will happen."

If he hadn't seen the notice posted by the pirates at the city gate, Jiang Feng would not have understood the purpose of the shopkeeper's instructions. But now, he knew very well. The shopkeeper had obviously known about the pirate attack tonight, so he deliberately

Tell them so.

However, when pirates enter the city, will they really be fine if they just hide in the room? Jiang Feng doesn't quite believe it. These pirates finally broke into the city, so how could they miss such a good opportunity to rob? If they didn't want to

Li Yu pretended to be calm in front of his master and servant, and Jiang Feng had fled long ago. However, in the presence of a beautiful woman, Jiang Feng could not ignore his image as a man. He did not even say that he wanted to leave, so he was a dignified man, so he naturally had no face to say "

The word "escape" was the word. Therefore, although Jiang Feng was frightened, he still chose to stay in the inn with Li Yu and the others.

But the image of pirates that he often saw on TV in the past, wearing turbans and carrying steel knives, with ferocious faces, robbing everything they saw, and killing everyone they saw, was always lingering in his mind.

After dinner, Jiang Feng took Li Yu and asked her to accompany him for a walk in Lianjiang City. Li Yu's personal waitress, Ying'er, naturally became their companion. In fact, Jiang Feng really

The purpose is to inquire about the situation in the city. If the situation looks bad, return to the inn. Although you can't escape, you can do the hidden work more deeply.

Jiang Feng had such a plan. He thought that since such a big event was about to happen in the city, and people in the whole city had already received the news, the shops on the street should have been closed one by one! However, Jiang Feng was roughly outside

After walking around, I found that in Lianjiang City, the people seemed to be nothing like this, and continued to do whatever they were supposed to do. Not only were the shops on the street open, but there were also many street vendors.

.

At this moment, Jiang Feng was even more puzzled. To say that the notice posted at the city gate showed that this group of pirates was arrogant and arrogant, and did not take the officers and soldiers seriously at all. Then, what was the calm performance of these city people?

What's the reason? Could it be that they are all related to these pirates? This is obviously impossible.

Seeing Jiang Feng silent along the way, Li Yu had already seen through Jiang Feng's thoughts.

"Brother Yu must be wondering why the people in these cities are not panicked at all when faced with the upcoming catastrophe of pirate siege?"

Jiang Feng nodded repeatedly, and he began to admire Li Yu more and more in front of him, who was disguised as a man. It seemed that she had everything under control, and she could even guess her own thoughts clearly.

"It's actually very simple. Because the group of pirates who are going to attack the city today are not ordinary pirates. They are part of the Zhangzhou Li family. And the Zhangzhou Li family has always had a good reputation along the southeast coast. They never

When they do bullying, they never find it difficult when they meet poor people, and sometimes they even give them a helping hand.

The Li family respects scholars even more. If there is a scholar they like who is willing to work for their Li family, they will give them fifty taels of settling-in allowance in advance."

Speaking of this, Li Yu even made a joke to Jiang Feng. "I think Brother Yu is in line with their standards. Maybe someone will come to invite Brother Yu tomorrow!"

Jiang Feng quickly shook his head like a rattle. "This can't be done! This can't be done!" In his heart, he escaped from death this time and traveled to this strange place; although so far, he has not figured out his own destiny.

He didn't have any earth-shattering plans when he was born, but he still couldn't accept the idea of ​​becoming a pirate.

Li Yu observed the words and had already seen Jiang Feng's disdain for these pirates, so he stopped talking and said no more.

When they arrived at the inn, the three of them went back to their rooms. This night was particularly difficult for Jiang Feng. He was not as comfortable and at ease as he was when he slept in that haystack on the first day he came to this world. Jiang Feng was always worried about this.

The pirates don't know if they will attack the city tonight as promised. If they do, will they not disturb the people as promised? Or will they burn, kill and loot?

Jiang Feng carefully observed the guest room and found that the only place where he could hide was under the bed. However, if anyone looked down at the bed, there would be nothing to hide. After thinking for a long time, Jiang Feng dragged the two bamboo baskets outside.

Under the bed. Hidden like this behind the bamboo basket, it is not so easy to be discovered unless you open the bed board or climb in.

There was no way, there were no secret passages, secret compartments and other places to hide here! So we could only make do with it. After getting all this done, Jiang Feng huddled behind the bamboo basket and felt relieved.

Gradually, I started to feel sleepy.

Just when he was drowsy, he suddenly heard the sound of a cannon in the distance. Then there were three more cannons.

Then someone faintly heard someone shouting loudly: "Brothers guarding the city, listen. We are from the Li family in Zhangzhou. We will enter the city tonight only to cause trouble for Chen Yuanliang and will never harm innocent people. If you want to occupy

If the city is defended, we can only attack with artillery.

Now, I give you half an hour to make a decision. Within half an hour, if one of you takes the initiative to open the city gate, that's it. We will still stick to our promise and never embarrass anyone other than the Chen family. If half an hour

After an hour, if no one has opened the city gate, then we can’t blame you for being rude. When the time comes to attack the city, all the defenders will be killed.”

Jiang Feng read the surrender letter three times in a row, counting clearly. Then he stopped reading it. Jiang Feng didn't know what had changed outside, but he didn't dare to go out to see it. This was no joke, it couldn't be done.

Okay, that's going to cost him his head. He didn't want to have just traveled to this new world, and he didn't even know who his parents were, so he would be messed up again by fate for no apparent reason.

After a while, Jiang Feng heard the sound of people running on the street and the sound of people talking. Jiang Feng judged that these pirates had entered the city. He hid behind the bamboo basket under the bed and did not dare to move. He knew

, this is not the time to act heroic, Han Xin can endure the humiliation on the crotch, so what does the humiliation under the bed mean to him!

At this moment, there was a slight knock on the door. Jiang Feng's heart suddenly became extremely nervous.

Then there was another sound. This time it was slightly heavier than the last time.

Probably because there was no response in the room, a woman's voice came from outside the door. "Is Mr. Yu asleep?"

Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief...it was the little maid Ying'er.

Jiang Feng hurriedly crawled out from under the bed and opened the door softly, as if he was afraid that his movements would alert the pirates outside and attract them.

Ying'er suddenly saw Jiang Feng opening the door, and took a step back in fright. Then she couldn't help covering her mouth, laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist!

"Yu, Mr. Yu. What are you doing here? Why do you feel like you touched ashes on your face?"

Jiang Feng then remembered that he had crawled out from under the bed. There must have been a lot of dust on his face, so the little girl smiled like this. He couldn't help but blush slightly on his face, and he quickly reached out to wipe it with his sleeves.

"Use this!" Li Yu gently pulled his sleeve and handed him a handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers.

Jiang Feng glanced at Li Yu gratefully, then quickly took the handkerchief and wiped his face.

"Brother Yu, do you want to go out with us and take a look?" Li Yu asked softly when Jiang Feng wiped his face.

"You guys need to go out! It's the middle of the night. Besides, I don't know if those pirates have left yet...!" Jiang Feng didn't say that it was dangerous outside now, because he wanted to maintain his image as a man. He believed that he only had to do this

With a little click, the smart Miss Li will definitely think of it.

"The people from the Li family have already come in, but it doesn't matter. There will be no danger. If they had not kept their word, I'm afraid someone would have already rushed into the inn and looted it.

I want to see what they do with the Chen family," Li Yu said.

When Jiang Feng heard what Li Yu said was reasonable, he felt relieved a lot. But when he heard that she was going to see the pirates deal with the Chen family, Jiang Feng's curiosity about the unknown was also aroused in his heart. People are like this, once they know that there is no danger

, and naturally became curious.

Or else, curiosity killed the cat!

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

Li Yu glanced at Jiang Feng approvingly. This glance made Jiang Feng's heart suddenly warm up. It seems that the approval of beauties has the same lethality no matter in modern times or in ancient times. Just this

With a glance of approval, even if Jiang Feng were asked to use his knife to fight the pirates outside, he would probably not hesitate. This is Jiang Feng, who has lived in two lifetimes and still can't escape the tricks of those smart beauties.

Jiang Feng brought his sword. Although the sword in his hand could probably only be used for cutting vegetables, it felt much safer with the sword in his hand.

The three of them left the inn, and there was no one on the street. The pirates had obviously passed by, and the officers and soldiers were hiding. People would not come out to join in the fun at this time. The three of them were the only ones on the street who didn't know whether to live or die.
