Chapter 2356 Poison(1/2)
Ghost Dock Island.
Dock No. 1, which had been quiet for many years, suddenly burst into flames. The flames shot straight into the sky and even drove away part of the drifting fog. Because of this, several other people on the dock noticed this scene.
In Dock No. 4, on the Moonlight Bird, a group of people came to the deck.
"The flames soaring into the sky...that direction, seems to be the No. 1 Dockyard?"
"This is Boss Man's territory. Is there a fire?"
"No matter how stupid Boss Man is, he can't even take some fire prevention measures. I have a hunch that there may be earth-shaking changes in the No. 1 Dockyard tonight." The navigator of the Moonlight Figure Bird was the one who spoke.
Looking at the sparks in the distant sky that even the fog could not hide, he said softly.
"Oh, what should I say?" someone asked, and others also looked at the navigator.
People who hang out at sea often have faith in navigators. Navigators observe the sky and find ocean currents to guide the direction of ships. This ability even sounds like a prophet or prophet to people who don't understand.
Therefore, when the navigator opened his mouth and said such mysterious words, it still aroused everyone's attention.
"Could it be that Sir, did you predict something?"
The navigator pondered for a moment, posed, and then opened his mouth in response to everyone's expectations: "It's actually very simple, because when I came from the river before, I saw Captain Barrow sneaking to Dock No. 1.
.”
Everyone: "..."
"You mean, the fire in Dock No. 1 was started by Captain Barrow?"
"I know Captain Barrow is very ambitious about Dockyard No. 1, but he alone doesn't have the courage."
"Yes, it's not that we don't believe it. Is Captain Barrow so capable?"
Seeing everyone talking and showing disbelief, the navigator shook his head: "If Captain Barrow is just one person, he may not be able to cause such damage. But, look around, are you missing anyone?"
Everyone turned around to look for him.
Not long after, someone hesitated and said, "Why don't you see Mr. Lenko?"
As soon as these words came out, after a few seconds of silence, a heated discussion broke out on the deck: "Did Mr. Lenko follow Captain Barrow to set a fire?"
"It's not like that, doesn't Mr. Lenko never take the initiative to attack other shipyards?"
"The reason for not taking the initiative is because we abide by the code of chivalry. What is the most important thing in the code of chivalry? Justice! Mr. Lenko represents justice and punishes the evil Mandarin. Isn't this also in line with the code?"
"That's what I said, but before..."
"Stop arguing, I think what the navigator said is right. I just saw Mr. Lenko leaving, and the direction is towards Dockyard No. 1!"
After the words fell, everyone looked at each other, with a hint of forbearing joy in their eyes.
Captain Barrow went alone. They didn't believe that he could cause any harm to the Mandarin. But Mr. Lenko was different. This was a knight with bottomless strength. Even if his strength could not defeat the entire No. 1 Dockyard alone,
Cooperating with Captain Barrow, it is still possible to carry out sabotage. Moreover, the people of No. 1 Dockyard are all scattered. Mr. Lenko can definitely kill the Mandarin and use the decapitation action to directly overwhelm No. 1 Dockyard!
Thinking of this, everyone was a little excited. After all, the No. 4 Dockyard where they lived was not the best site, and even the land was not fertile enough. They actually also thought about the No. 1 Dockyard, but they were too embarrassed to express it before.
If they could really occupy Dock No. 1, they would definitely be extremely happy.
While everyone was thinking about it, a trace of worry flashed in the navigator's eyes. Others were still a little optimistic. The "earth-shaking changes" he said actually did not only refer to Dock 1, but also their Dock 4.
What if Mr. Lenko is defeated by the opponent? Or what if he makes a mistake and falls into a trap? After all, no matter how powerful Mr. Lenko is, he is still an ordinary person.
Without Mr. Lenko, Dock No. 4 would probably become nothing more than a mere fish.
The navigator didn't want to tell everyone this guess. He could only look at the blazing place in the distance and pray secretly.
At the same time, near Dock No. 1.
Several figures quickly escaped from the fire. The one walking at the front was Lenko, who was holding a knight's rapier. Behind him were Barrow and Little Birch. On Barrow's back, there was also a
Comatose woman.
At first glance, all of them seem to be doing well, but if you take a closer look, you will find that both Barrow and Little Birch are covered with large and small scars, and Little Birch's arm was even twisted.
At a weird angle, it was obviously broken.
Lenko seemed to be in the best condition at the moment, but just a few steps after they ran out of Dock No. 1, Lenko had some abnormal reactions.
Lenko's figure suddenly staggered, and he knelt on the ground with half of his feet.
"Are you injured?" Barrow immediately rushed forward and tried to help Lenko up.
"No...it's nothing, continue..." Lenko refused Barrow's help and struggled to stand up, sweating profusely. But when he stood up, he became unstable again and fell directly to the ground.
Barrow looked back at the dock in the firelight, and vaguely saw a group of black figures coming out of it, and there was the sound of killing in his ears.
He gritted his teeth, ignored Lenko's refusal, stepped forward and directly grabbed Lenko's arm, and quickly ran into the forest.
While dragging Lenko, there was another one on his back. In addition, there was a fight in the dock before, Barrow's physical strength could no longer keep up.
After walking a few steps, I was out of breath.
Behind him, Birch's head was covered with sweat. He wanted to help Captain Barrow share the pressure, but his hand was fractured and he couldn't use his strength at all. He had used all his strength to run along.
There are pursuers behind them again, and now their strength is exhausted again. They are still far away from Dock No. 4... What should we do now?
When Birch was about to cry, he suddenly heard a familiar whistle coming from his ears.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Barrow also heard it, and they followed the sound.
But from behind the big tree not far away, a small head sneaked out. When he saw Barrow and the others, his eyes flashed with joy.
"Little Flea!" Birch recognized the identity of the other party at a glance. He was his best friend who had grown up wearing a pair of trousers, and he was also the ship's doctor in Dockyard No. 1.
The little flea ran over and looked behind. Although he didn't see anyone, the shouting and chasing sounds had already been heard. It was estimated that they would chase him in in a minute or two at most.
Birch: "Little Flea, why are you here?"
The little flea gestured "Shhh" to him, and then whispered quickly: "They are catching up soon. Come with me. I know there is a hidden stone cave nearby."
There was no other way for them to go back to Dock No. 4 if they continued running. Barrow thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
So the little flea led the way, and they followed behind.
However, the shouting behind them still did not stop, and even got closer and closer.
"I feel like they are behind me, what should I do?" Birch asked anxiously.
Little Flea was also anxious. After all, he was the doctor on the Po Xue. If he was discovered, the punishment he would receive might be even more terrifying than that of Birch and the others, because the Mandarin hated the traitor the most.
The little flea quickly ran over, looked at the ground, and said, "It's blood! The blood stains exposed the whereabouts."
After finishing speaking, the little flea looked at everyone.
Although Birch's hand was broken, there was no bleeding. Although Lenko's face was pale and there were beads of sweat on his forehead, his exposed skin had no scars at all, let alone bleeding.
There were many scars on Captain Barrow's body, and some of them were bleeding, but the blood was not much, and it would not have formed blood stains on the ground.
Finally, the little flea's eyes fell on the woman on Captain Barrow's back.
He had seen this one-armed woman, it was the one who floated from the outer sea during the day. Her appearance was really stunning, her gorgeous, charming and heroic appearance, as long as she was not blind, anyone could see it.
It's hard for her to forget.
At that time, when the woman was brought to the dock, the Mandarin immediately called Little Flea to treat her injuries.
So the little flea knew clearly that there were wounds all over this woman's body. The biggest wound was on the shoulder blade, which was as big as the mouth of a bowl. During the day, the little flea had already treated all her wounds, but at this time,
After a while of dragging, the gauze on the woman's shoulder was damaged, and blood seeped out again, falling to the ground drop by drop.
There is no doubt that this woman's blood is the reason why they are locked.
Birch also noticed the blood flowing out. He looked at Barrow: "Captain, why don't we leave her here first?"
No matter how beautiful a woman is, is their life still important? Birch thought so, and he also believed that with Barrow's character, he would definitely value life as the highest value.
Even Lenko, who was being dragged by Barrow, felt that Barrow would choose to give up on this woman.
However, Barrow's choice was completely different from what they imagined. He said without hesitation: "No, she can never stay here, let alone be left to those beasts!"
"But, she is dragging us down now." Birch said anxiously, not only dragging them down, but also dragging down the little flea, which he didn't want to see.
"Then I will carry her alone. Anyway, I will never let her go." Barrow's eyes flashed with determination, and his words were sonorous and powerful.
Barrow's words were not only conveyed to Birch and Little Flea, but the ears of the woman on his back also moved.
On the other side, everyone who heard Barrow's answer frowned. They wanted to ask Barrow if he was possessed by a demon and why he suddenly changed into a different person. But now that time was running out, it was hard to say anything.
