Da Liu opened the cork of the porcelain bottle and poured out a handful of small black pills.
"How many detoxification pills?" Da Liu asked.
"This Mongolian sweat medicine is mixed with other medicines and cannot be completely detoxified. Taking three pills can keep you temporarily awake. If you want to completely detoxify, you probably need to have a good sleep!" Kita Qianxun replied.
"Where do you have time to sleep at this time?"
Da Liu pinched three pills and threw them into his mouth.
I don’t know what kind of medicinal materials the pill is made of. As soon as it enters the mouth, a fishy smell mixed with coolness rushes straight to the forehead.
Da Liu's mind, which had been in a daze just now, suddenly became clearer and his strength recovered a bit.
He grabbed the edge of the table and stood up, looking out the window.
As expected, the sea was just as Kita Qianhiro said. There were ships of different sizes everywhere, and they were already less than two miles away from our own fleet.
On the flagpole of the leading pirate ship, several corpses were swinging in the wind.
Da Liu frowned tightly and couldn't help but feel a little desperate in his heart.
If there were one or two pirate ships, he and Kita Qianhiro might be able to give it a try.
But there were too many ships on the other side, and they were both poisoned, so there was no chance of winning.
However, Da Liu also knew that despair was useless, so he forced himself to calm down and said quickly: "Madam's fishing boat is tied up behind. Qianxun, please take Mr. aboard quickly!"
For this plan, his only thought was to rescue Jin Feng.
This ship is equipped with several lifeboats, but the lifeboats are all hung outside the ship's side, and it takes time to lower them.
With his and Kitakihiro's current condition, they simply don't have that much time.
Fortunately, Tang Xiaobei got a lifeboat tied to the stern in order to fish.
Kita Qianxun also knew that time was running out, so he staggered to Jin Feng's side, picked up Jin Feng on his back, and supported the cabin to move out.
Da Liu was not idle either. After recovering a little strength, he crawled out of the dining cabin on his hands and knees and came to the forward deck.
At this time, the deck was full of escorts who were sleeping soundly, and the hot air balloon in the sky was slowly landing because it had lost its fuel.
The situation was the same on the opposite boat, which was obviously drugged as well.
Da Liu patted the cheeks of the two escorts at the door, and found that he couldn't wake them up at all, so he climbed to the deck next to the catapult.
For safety reasons, catapults and heavy crossbows are usually not cocked, but the baskets of the catapults are filled with oil jars, and the heavy crossbows are also loaded with arrows.
If there is danger, just wind the string and it will fire.
Da Liu stood up holding on to the frame of the catapult and held the winding handle.
The winch that could normally be turned easily now required all his strength to turn it.
But Liu did not give up and wound the catapult round and round.
Click!
The catapult has been wound up and can be fired at any time.
Da Liu adjusted the shooting angle of the catapult again, and then climbed towards the heavy crossbow next to the catapult.
At this time, Bei Qianxun had already carried Jin Feng to the stern of the ship.
Putting Jin Feng into the cabin of the boat, Kita Qianxun turned back again.
Seeing Da Liu loading the heavy crossbow, he frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Leave me alone, go and take Mrs. Xiaobei away!"
Da Liu said without looking back: "The pirates are coming soon. After taking Mrs. Xiaobei with you, you can leave."
"Then what should you do?" Kita Qianxun asked.
"I told you to leave me alone!" Liu shouted impatiently: "Stop grinding, you won't be able to leave if you grind!"
If it was normal, if Da Liu shouted at him like this, Bei Qianxun would have rushed up and kicked him.
But at this time, Kita Chihiro felt that her throat was blocked.
She was trained as a killer since she was a child and was instilled with the idea of foolish loyalty. Later she followed the young lady. Although the young lady was nice to her, she still felt the gap between them.
Later, she went up the mountain to become a bandit. As a woman, in order to frighten the bandits, she had to kill a lot of people.
As a result, no bandit dared to get close to her.
It wasn't until she followed Jin Feng that she felt the warmth of family and the care from her comrades.
She usually bullies Da Liu, and just like what Jin Feng said, she is actually training him.
Da Liu also understood this, so even though he was always beaten by Kita Qianxun, he was not really angry.
"What are you still doing? Get out of here, as far away as possible!"
When Da Liu saw that Bei Qianxun hadn't left yet, he roared again with red eyes.
Bei Qianxun's eyes also turned red. He bit his lip, hugged Da Liu's fists, then rushed back to the cabin and carried Tang Xiaobei on his back.
After sending Tang Xiaobei onto the boat, Bei Qianxun looked back at Da Liu.
At this time, Liu had finished winding up the heavy crossbow and catapult on the bow of the ship, and was raising the sail.
Bei Qianxun knew that Da Liu wanted to attract the attention of the pirates for them and cover their departure.
Farewell this time may be forever!
"Take care of yourself!"
Bei Qianxun muttered silently to Da Liu, untied the rope that tied the boat, shook the oars, and sailed towards the east with Jin Feng and Tang Xiaobei.
It was summer at this time, with mostly easterly and southerly winds, making it difficult for pirates to pursue eastward sailing boats.
When Da Liu heard the sound of a paddle coming from behind, he turned around and looked over.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and there was light mist on the sea. He could only see Kita Chihiro's back.
Da Liu watched Bei Qianxun drive the boat and disappear into the mist, and then continued to pull the rope.
The pirate fleet was less than a mile away from Da Liu and was within the attack range of catapults and heavy crossbows.
"Damn it, let me show you how powerful I am!"
Da Liu cursed while turning the winch on the base of the catapult to adjust the attack direction and angle.
When the leading pirate ship entered the attack point, Liu took out two grenades from his arms and threw them into the catapult basket.
Light a jar of oil with a match, then hit the trigger hard.
Whoosh!
The weight on the forearm of the catapult fell rapidly, and the oil jar and two grenades in the rear arm basket flew out with a roar, landing accurately on the leading pirate ship.
boom!
The deck of the pirate ship headed by it suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
Then there were two loud noises, and the fire became even bigger.
Many pirates were stained by the burning oil and burned until they screamed.
Da Liu didn't have time to look at them, so he stumbled to a heavy crossbow and adjusted its base to aim at the second pirate ship.
Whoosh!
As the trigger was pressed, a heavy crossbow arrow accurately hit the side of the pirate ship.
The heavy crossbow arrows on the ship are specially made by Jin Feng and are filled with gunpowder and flint. After impact, the flint ignites the gunpowder and explodes like a grenade.
With a loud noise, a large hole was blown directly into the side of the second pirate ship.
Sea water poured into the cabin through the large hole, and the pirate ship sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Two ships were sunk one after another. The pirates were frightened and pulled down the sails and reduced their speed.
"A bunch of cowards!"
Da Liu cursed and turned to look at the other ship: "Brothers, I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it! Don't worry, my husband will definitely avenge us!"
