A small pirate leader with oil paint on his face was escorted to the captain's cabin and asked to identify him.
However, when he first saw the tragic situation in the captain's room, the little boss was so frightened that his face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground.
However, there were four corpses in the captain's room. Their death conditions were all very tragic, their eyes were scarlet, and it was horrifying.
"this……"
The one who escorted the little boss to the captain's cabin was Dai Long and other guards. After seeing such a scene, they all trembled.
Soon, they saw clearly the cause of the deceased's death, and immediately turned their attention to Xu Zun.
Because, the throats of these four people were all torn off by life!!!
Since tearing out the throat was not fatal immediately, the deceased struggled to survive, leaving eye-catching and messy bloodstains everywhere in the captain's room.
"This...this one is Master Hei Boyu, he...he..."
Unexpectedly, the little boss spoke fluently in Central Plains dialect and pointed at a hideous-looking corpse on the side of the floor.
This corpse was wearing a helmet with a skull on it and various gold accessories hanging on it. It looked like a high-ranking figure among pirates.
But……
It was obvious that the attention of Xu Zun and others was no longer on Hei Bo Yu.
"Sir..." Zhao Yu looked around and asked Xu Zun in a low voice, but when the word "Kuniang" came to his lips, he still didn't say it.
Obviously, from the wounds of the deceased, it can be clearly known that they should have died under the sharp claws of Ku Niang.
But……
Xu Zun frowned and searched around with his eyes, but did not see Ku Niang's figure.
Seeing everyone's suspicious looks, Xu Zun was also a little dazed. He really didn't notice Ku Niang before.
Could it be that... these people were really killed by Ku Niang!!?
Why did Ku Niang do this?
Could it be...
"I..." Huo Anu also realized that the matter was of great importance and hurriedly said proactively, "Sir, I'm going to find Ku Niang!"
After saying that, she put away the iron umbrella and rushed out of the captain's cabin immediately.
However, as soon as she went out, she stepped back again, staring straight at the door.
The atmosphere instantly became depressing and tense, and Xin Zhao even held the handle of the knife unconsciously.
Just like that, under the nervous gaze of everyone, Ku Niang slowly entered the captain's cabin.
The steps were gentle, but there was an invisible pressure that made everyone present feel breathless.
"Kuniang, you..." Xu Zun looked at Kuniang, but saw that Kuniang's expression was no different from usual.
Ku Niang's eyes were still fierce and deep, and she said calmly:
"not me."
These three simple words made everyone present feel relieved.
Xin Zhao quickly let go of the hand holding the handle of the knife, feeling that his palms were all sweaty.
"Not you? Then..." Huo Anu stepped forward and asked quickly, "Who is that!?"
Yes, everyone showed doubts.
Before this, they all saw Ku Niang take action. If Hei Boyu and others in front of them were not killed by Ku Niang, who would they be?
"No!" Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of an important question first and shouted loudly, "If it wasn't Ku Niang, then the murderer must still be on the ship!"
"Ah?" Huo Anu hurriedly held up the iron umbrella and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"This is a boat," Zhao Yu said nervously, "It is surrounded by sea. The murderer killed someone, where to escape?"
Oh yes!!!
Everyone suddenly realized this and raised their weapons one after another, as if facing a formidable enemy.
However, most of them still did not take their eyes off Ku Niang.
It was obvious that they did not believe Ku Niang's words.
However, Xu Zun is well aware of Ku Niang's character. If she really did it, she would never say the words "It wasn't me" in public. Furthermore, if she really wanted to kill people and silence them without being known, as long as she didn't
Wouldn't it be enough to remove the throat tube?
But if not her, who could it be?
Before that, Xu Zun knew that if Hei Bo Yu could become the overlord of the East China Sea, his martial arts must also be quite impressive.
The few people present must be top-notch experts. If not Ku Niang, who else could remove their tracheas so easily?
Moreover, looking at the wounds on several people's throats, all of them violent and eye-catching, Xu Zun couldn't help but think of the scene when Ku Niang removed Wei Bei's trachea.
Are these methods really not a bitter mother?
However, Xu Zun first trusted Ku Niang and secondly was rational and shrewd. He soon discovered that the blood stains around Hei Bo Yu were already showing signs of drying and solidifying.
This sign shows that Hei Bo Yu was likely to have been brutally murdered before they attacked the ship.
If that's the case, Ku Niang was still on the battleship at the time, how could she run to the pirate ship and kill Hei Bo Yu without anyone noticing?
right!
Thinking of this, Xu Zun no longer doubted it.
Just imagine, at that time, the pirate ship wanted to take down the Daxuan battleship in one fell swoop with the help of the Kraken illusion.
At such an important time, how could Hei Boyu, as the captain, still stay in the captain's room?
Therefore, Heibo Yu and others must have been killed by someone who had already ambushed the ship.
And this person... actually has the same martial arts as Ku Niang?
Why?
etc……
During a thought, Xu Zun remembered another thing, which was the word "devil" that Wei Beihui wrote on the ground before he died.
That is to say...
The rumored killer Mosha...appeared?
"Sir," the little pirate leader said tremblingly at this time, "there are more than ten uninhabited islands near this sea area. If someone dives, they can definitely swim over..."
"That won't work either!" Zhao Yu swallowed and said to Xu Zun, "Sir, we must get a ship. This... this is no small matter!"
"Oh! Anuche," Huo Anu clapped his hands fiercely, "The pirate leader is also dead. He was obviously silenced. It seems that there is a powerful mastermind behind them!"
"Let me ask you," Xu Zun came to the little pirate leader and asked, "Who are these four people, except Hei Bo Yu?"
"They are all..." the little boss quickly replied, "They are all our senior generals, Bute, Aiqi and Sadhu."
"Then..." Xu Zun asked again, "Take a good look, have you missed anything?"
"Except for the captain, these three generals are the biggest among us!" The little leader nodded and said, "They are all...all here!"
"Then let me ask you," Xu Zun pointed at Ku Niang, "is there a woman who looks like her around your captain?"
"Ah?" The little boss was stunned, obviously not understanding what Xu Zun meant, and then he shook his head vigorously and said, "No, no, our captain said that women are unlucky and never let women on the main ship..."
No women…
Xu Zun frowned. Could it be that the killer has been lurking on the ship? Or...
Xu Zun was thinking hard when a commotion suddenly came from outside the captain's cabin.
What's wrong?
Everyone heard it and hurried to the door to check.
But on the deck, there were many Daxuan sailors and top-notch warriors going crazy, slashing at each other with their swords!
How could the sailor be the opponent of a first-class warrior? He was quickly chopped to the ground by the opponent, blood burst out, and the scene was chaotic...
