Chapter 1690
"The boss said that this time the harvest is not small, and these three people can be sold for a good price."
"Yes, but we have to watch carefully and don't let them run away."
Huo Jilin heard their conversation and whispered: "We must find a way to escape as soon as possible."
Hu Bayi said: "When they relax at night, we will act again!"
Wang Kaixuan nodded and said: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
At night, most of the pirates were resting, and the guards were a little sleepy.
Huo Jilin quietly broke the rope and gently opened the door.
Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan followed out.
They carefully avoided the patrolling pirates and walked towards the bow.
Just when they were about to reach the bow, they accidentally hit a bucket and made a sound.
"Who is it?" A pirate was awakened and shouted loudly.
Huo Jilin said: "No, we've been discovered, run!"
The three ran desperately towards the bow.
The pirates chased after them one after another.
The one-eyed pirate also appeared and shouted, "Don't let them run away!"
At this critical moment, Hu Bayi found a pile of weapons nearby.
He shouted, "Pick up your weapons and fight them!"
The three picked up their weapons and fought fiercely with the pirates again.
Whoosh whoosh!
However, although the three tried their best to resist, they were outnumbered and were captured by the pirates again.
The one-eyed pirate said viciously, "You dare to run away again, I'll tie you up tighter this time!"
Wang Kaixuan panted and cursed, "You inhuman guys, you won't have a good end!"
The pirates ignored his shouting and threw them back into the cabin and strengthened the guard.
Huo Jilin leaned against the wall and said, "Don't waste your energy. Think about what to do next."
Hu Bayi frowned, "It may be even harder to escape this time."
Wang Kaixuan looked depressed, "Are we really going to die here?"
Just when they felt desperate, there was a burst of fierce gunfire and shouting outside.
"What's going on?" Hu Bayi said in surprise.
Only to hear the pirates outside in a mess, someone shouted, "Oh no, another pirate ship is attacking us!"
The three people in the cabin looked at each other, and Huo Jilin's eyes flashed with hope, "Maybe this is our chance."
The battle outside became more and more intense, the pirate ship was beaten up, and many places caught fire, and the pirates suffered heavy casualties.
The one-eyed pirate roared angrily: "Hold on!"
At this time, a little pirate ran in and shouted: "Boss, I can't hold on, the other side is too strong!"
The one-eyed pirate had no choice but to think of the three people in the cabin. He rushed into the cabin and said: "As long as you help me fight off the enemy, I will let you go!"
Huo Jilin sneered: "Now you know to beg us?"
The one-eyed pirate said anxiously: "As long as we can win, any conditions are fine!"
Huo Jilin thought about it and said: "Okay, then you untie our ropes first."
The one-eyed pirate hesitated for a moment, but still asked someone to untie their ropes.
Huo Jilin walked out of the cabin and saw the continuous fire from the pirate ship on the opposite side. He took a deep breath and decided to perform Taoist magic.
He muttered something in his mouth, made seals with his hands, and a powerful force emanated from him.
The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and thunder and lightning. Huo Jilin pointed at the pirate ship on the opposite side, and a bolt of lightning struck and hit the opponent's mast.
"What kind of trick is this?" The one-eyed pirate and other pirates were stunned.
Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan also showed surprise on the side.
Huo Jilin continued to perform Taoist magic, and one spell after another flew towards the opposite pirate ship, causing great chaos to the other side.
With the help of Huo Jilin, the situation gradually reversed, and the morale of the pirates on his side was greatly boosted, and they fought back bravely.
Finally, the opposite pirate ship could not hold on and began to retreat.
The one-eyed pirate shouted excitedly: "Victory!"
The pirates cheered and looked at Huo Jilin, their eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
The one-eyed pirate walked up to Huo Jilin and bowed deeply: "Thank you for your help, hero. I hope you will forgive me for any offense I have caused you before."
Huo Jilin said: "Remember, don't do anything that harms the world again in the future."
The one-eyed pirate nodded quickly: "Of course, we will remember your teachings."
Hu Bayi said: "Then let us go quickly."
The one-eyed pirate said: "Okay, I will send you off now."
The three finally left the pirate ship and continued their journey home.
Wang Kaixuan smiled and said: "This time it was really thrilling, but fortunately it was saved in the end."
Huo Jilin said:"You should be more careful when you go out in the future."
Hu Bayi nodded in agreement: "Yes, but this experience is unforgettable!"
Huh!
After the three returned to land, they dragged their tired bodies to a town.
"I feel like my bones are about to fall apart." Wang Kaixuan complained as he walked.
Hu Bayi said: "Let's find a place to rest first."
Huo Jilin nodded: "Well, find a hotel."
They found a hotel in the town that looked clean, booked three rooms, and then went back to their rooms and fell asleep.
The three slept until the evening of the next day before waking up.
Huo Jilin stretched and walked out of the room, just in time to meet Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.
"It was a comfortable sleep." Hu Bayi said with a yawn.
Wang Kaixuan also said: "Yes, I feel a lot of energy has been restored."
The three were about to go out to find something to eat, but they heard a group of people talking in the hotel lobby.
"Have you heard? There is a bat demon in our town recently."
"Is it true? Don't be scary."
"It's true. Several people have disappeared. It is said that they all disappeared at night."
The three people were immediately interested when they heard these conversations.
Hu Bayi stepped forward and asked: "Everyone, what is going on with this bat demon?"
An old man looked at them and said: "Young people, are you from other places? This bat demon is very powerful. It will come out to harm people every full moon night."
Wang Kaixuan said: "Full moon night? This is too mysterious."
Another person said: "That's right, everyone is panicking."
Huo Jilin said: "Is there no one to deal with this bat demon?"
Everyone shook their heads: "Who dares? The bat demon is elusive."
The three returned to the room and discussed.
Hu Bayi said, "I don't think this is that simple. Maybe someone is playing tricks."
Huo Jilin nodded and said, "It's possible, but we can't take it lightly."
Wang Kaixuan said, "Then what should we do? We can't just ignore it."
Huo Jilin thought for a while and said, "Let's find out the situation first."
In the next few days, they asked around in the town about the bat monster.
One day, they met a hunter in a tavern.
The hunter took a sip of wine and said, "I once saw a huge black shadow on the mountain, like a huge bat."
