On the winding dirt road, two riders were galloping on horseback, rolling up smoke and dust.

The rider behind suddenly slowed down, and the rider running in front noticed something strange and strangled the horse.

The rider behind simply got off the horse, took an unnatural eight-character step, and led the horse to catch up with the rider in front: "Oh, my master, I really can't ride anymore. Let's rest for a while. My butt hurts like a red-hot iron rod, and a layer of flesh is worn off from the base of my thighs."

"You lazy guy, where can you rest in this wilderness?" The rider in front scolded his personal servant: "Don't be too slow, wait until you return to the manor to let you rest. Get on the horse quickly, we have to go home before dark."

The old servant heard the loose attitude in the master's words and stumbled while the iron was hot and complained: "Master, we are all here, we will definitely get home even before it gets dark. I really can't ride anymore. Oh, my butt hurts so much... Otherwise, you can go on a horse first, and I will walk back slowly?"

"Hey, you lazy." Poke served Kalman loyally for more than 20 years as a personal servant. The two of them turned from great young men to half an old man with gray hair. Although Kalman, the owner of the Red Pine Manor, taught a lesson, his attitude had softened: "Look at this wilderness, where do you want to rest?"

The old servant Poke was overjoyed and pointed from afar: "Look at the smoke behind the forest there, it must be a hunting master who is resting. Let's go and ask for water to drink, maybe I can still enjoy my meat."

"You guy, are you greedy? Did I treat you badly?" Kalman cursed with a smile.

The old servant Poke realized that he had missed his mouth, and he looked around and patted his chest to make a promise: "Let's go and ask for saliva. After asking for saliva, we will go home without stopping for a second."

After walking through the woods to the place where the blue smoke rose, the master and servant realized that they had made a big mistake.

On a small open space between the woods and the stream, several large trucks formed a circle around the campfire, and a few people were lying on the ground in cloaks and napping.

There were two iron pots on the campfire, and they were cooking things. The smoke from the master and servant saw came out from here.

It seems that this is an ordinary convoy, but the problem is not that, but the people around the campfire.

Walking around this small camp was a strong man with a sailor's scimitar. Several spears and muskets stood casually by the side of the car, and the dark red blood on the tip of the spear had not been wiped dry.

Judging from the clothes and dressing Kalman: these people are pirates who are killed by heaven.

The Akihiro Island Council acquiesced to pirates to sell stolen goods, and everyone is tacit about it. The stolen goods of the pirates brought prosperity to Akihiro Island, but the residents on the island were also deeply harmed by pirates.

Most pirates are outlaws, and if conditions permit, they certainly don’t mind doing some side jobs on land. And after committing crimes on land, they can directly board the ship and escape, which is the most convenient.

There are frequent murders on Chiyi Island, and most of them have become unsolved cases, but the residents on the island are very aware that the murderer is a pirate who was killed by heaven.

The Council repeatedly claimed to crack down on vicious crimes by outsiders on the island. However, pirates could not rob those high-powered members. On the contrary, selling stolen goods for pirates could make them a fortune. Therefore, the bandits on Chi Iwo Island have never been solved.

Now, the pirates drove into Chiyi Island in a panic, which made the civilians on the island even more frightened.

Poke's face turned pale, and Kalman glared at his old servant fiercely, signaling him not to speak out and leave quietly.

However, it was too late, and the pirates in the camp had discovered the master and servant.

"Hey! Stop!" someone in the camp shouted at the master and servant.

Kalman jumped onto the saddle and stabbed the ribs, and in the blink of an eye he entered the woods. But Pok's skills were not as agile as his master. His movements became a little slower, and another person rushing out from behind him grabbed the reins of his mount.

The rest of the camp immediately surrounded him, and the first thing the napping people did when they woke up was to get their weapons.

Kalman, who had already run away for a while, saw the old servant being caught, and turned his head helplessly and turned back.

Seeing that he could no longer leave, Kalman simply took the initiative to dismount and said loudly: "We are just passers-by and come to ask for saliva."

Another pirate took away the reins from his hand and pushed Kalman to Poke. The pirates vaguely surrounded the master and servant in the middle.

The pirates ignored him, and a tall pirate severely scolded the pirate who caught Poke: "How did you put the whistle? Everyone touched the edge of the camp!"

The reprimanded pirate lowered his head in shame.

Seeing this, Kalman secretly guessed that the tall pirate should be the leader of this group of people, so he mustered up the courage to say to the tall pirate: "We are just passers-by and want to ask for saliva. I am not intentionally disturbing me, please let us go."

The tall pirate glanced at Kalman deeply, turned around and walked towards the campfire without saying a word, signaling the two to follow.

Poke was so scared that he shivered all over, his jaw bit tightly, and the muscles on his cheeks were bulging out.

Kalman patted the old servant on the back and comforted him: "It's okay."

"Master, I'm sorry, I'm no longer greedy." Poke finally couldn't hold back and cried so hard that he snotted and cried.

The master and servant were forced to enter the camp surrounded by a large cart. A pirate who ran out of the cart saw the master and servant, and walked to the tall pirate with fierce eyes and compared the gesture of "cutting".

The tall pirate bent over and picked up two cups from the edge of the campfire and handed them to the two.

"This...what do you mean?" Kalman was a little dizzy.

"Don't you want to ask for water?"

"Oh, thank you, thank you." After thanking repeatedly, Kalman took the cup, but did not dare to drink it. However, the old servant Pok, who was so scared that he took the cup, drank it in one breath.

"Who are you?" asked the tall pirate expressionlessly.

"Passing by." Kalman replied cautiously: "We are just farmers nearby."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Do farmers also have horses to ride?" The tall pirate smiled.

"We are... rich peasants with a little more land." Seeing that the other party seemed not to be bloodthirsty, Kalman gritted his teeth and asked, "Who are you?"

"Me?" The tall pirate smiled: "I am the grain collection team under Captain Kidd."

The tension was slightly relieved, and Kalman's thinking ability gradually recovered. He instinctively tried to obtain more information from the physical characteristics of the pirate leader in front of him.

Although there was some black and gray on his face, the man was judging from his voice that the man was very young. His hands were slender and clean, and he was a pair of hands that had not been destroyed by roughness. He also had his teeth, skin, and figure... If the pirate who was the pirate who should be like, then this young man did not look like a pirate at all, but rather like a monk.

The point is his eyes, which are cold and deep eyes.

Looking at each other, Kalman avoided the other party's sight. He explained himself: If he had no ability, he could become a pirate leader at a young age?

Kalman and Poke both lowered their heads under the scrutiny of the other party, just as Kalman was raising his courage to say something.

"You go." The pirate leader waved his hand to his hands: "Let them go."

The other pirates seemed unwilling to give up, but when they heard the orders of the young pirate, they handed the reins back to the master and servant, making way for them.

Kalman stepped on the horse in disbelief, hurriedly took off his hat to the pirate leader, and led the old servant to run away like a desperate attempt. The master and servant both ran and looked back, fearing that there would be pursuers behind him.

"I know what you are worried about." After watching the two strangers walk away, the pirate leader said to his men: "But we are not pirates."

...

Kalman led Poke and didn't even dare to slow down the horse's speed, and desperately urged his mount to run back to the Red Pine Manor.

He ordered his old servant not to tell anyone what happened today. Seeing Pok's frightened bird look like, even if he didn't give the order, Pok would not dare to tell anyone.

The gentle Mrs. Kalman saw that her husband was worried after returning home, but Kalman refused to say it, so she stopped asking.

But even when he returned home, the feeling of life in the hands of others still made Karaman feel scared. He called the captain of the manor guard and asked if there was anything special near the manor recently, and repeatedly told the other party to be wary of pirates recently.

The guard captain said noo, but he didn't really agree. At most, the pirates were just blocking the road and robbing, and they would never have the courage to attack the guarded plantation.

The sky gradually became darker, and Hongsong Manor fell into a sleep.

After finding out his own mesh gun and dagger to clean it up, Karaman blew out the candle and climbed onto the bed.

"Why did you turn the gun out again?" Mrs. Karaman said uneasy, and she couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you today? You're restless after you come back."

"I met the grain collection team of the Council today, and the grain collection team was full of pirates." Karaman sighed: "With the war outside, our family is not safe anymore."

"Sleep, go to bed." Mrs. Karaman didn't know what to do, so she could only hold her husband's hand and fell asleep.

But Mrs. Karaman in her sleep didn't know that a small team of people were lurking outside the Red Pine Manor, waiting to attack.

Originally, in the eyes of the three warrant officers, the planter, as one of the two pillars of the federation, must have high walls and deep grooves outside, and elite private soldiers inside, and are heavily guarded and as solid as a soup.

But judging from the information brought back by Bard and Andre, who were in charge of reconnaissance, the defense of this plantation is simply vulnerable, and its weak defense power even made the three warrant officers feel ridiculous.

The exterior wall was just a wooden fence less than one person tall. Bard and Andre counted over and over again and again but did not count the sixth guard with weapons.

Winters led the remaining soldiers of Venetta to ambush outside the manor for a long time without waiting for the patrol people. The night guard seemed to have only one dog.

"I see there is no night patrol in this place." Andrei lowered his voice and said, "There are only five guards, and he can't even line up for the night shift."

Winters didn't expect that the famous plantation defense was so relaxed. Fortunately, he tried his best to formulate a detailed raid plan, which he found was both angry and funny.

"Go to do it." Winters finally reminded: "The plan remains unchanged. If someone resists, he will kill him on the spot. But the owner's family must live."

Bud shot the arrow tied with poisonous flesh at the night guard.

At night, the guard barked a few times, and then started a big meal.

After a long time.

The night guards of Hongpine Manor are still lively and lively.

Andrey angrily cursed Gold in his voice: "[Assisted tone], didn't you say this trick work very well?"

"It works! Really! But before I used poisonous rat poison, I have never used poisonous mushrooms." Gold replied aggrievedly.

Andre turned his gun to Bud again: "What's going on? Didn't you say that the mushrooms are very poisonous?"

Bud sighed, stood up and opened his bow like a full moon, and knocked down the night guards of Red Pine Manor with an arrow.

"Will you finish doing this earlier?" Andrei was furious: "What are we trying to do for so long?"

"Are you going to use poison? Get the job done right now." Winters had no choice but to do anything: "Don't let anyone go."

Bud took people outside to prevent anyone from escaping, and Winters and Andre took the remaining people into the guard's residence.

After neatly dealing with the five guards, the Venetta soldiers lit torches and broke into the main house in open flames.

Kalman was awakened by the footsteps downstairs, but before he could do anything, the bedroom door was kicked open, and several people carrying scimitars and torches broke in.

The fire was so pirated that Kalman couldn't open his eyes, but the other party laughed and shouted: "Sir, by chance, the sparrow he let go actually flew back to us."

...

Kalman, the owner of Red Pine Manor, was taken to Winters and glared at the pirate leader in front of him. Kalman asked angrily: "You followed me here, right?"

Winters shook his head: "No, we were originally going to come to find the owner of Hongsong Manor."

"It turns out that our family is doomed." Kalman seemed to have been exhausted and his whole body grew older: "You can take away any money, jewelry, and food if you want, but please don't hurt my family."

"No, I'm not here to rob." Winters took the scimitar back into the scabbard: "You are a doctor, right? I'm here to ask you to save people, and I'll ask you for some things. I'll meet my two requirements, your family, your manor, and your money, will be fine."

"There are many good doctors in Chiyi Port, why do you come to me? I am a remote manor owner, what do you have to ask me about? You..." Kalman suddenly figured it out. The sea blue accent was not like a pirate. He understood the strange grain collection team, he understood it all.

Kalman widened his eyes, his pupils shrank, and his trembling right hand pointed at Winters' nose: "You...you...you are a Venetta...you are a Venetta officer..."
