Chapter 898
One day passed.
Two days passed.
This morning, Dong Xuebin woke up, turned over and lit a cigarette, then put on his shoes and walked to the deck. He looked around. He saw that this was still a deep sea area, and the mainland was no longer visible. There was only sea around him, and it was obvious that he was still far away from his destination. Taking a boat is not as fast as a train, let alone an airplane. Dong Xuebin has long been mentally prepared for this and knows that there is no need to rush. []
"Brother." Dong Xuebin stopped a crew member. The Power of Time and Wealth 898
The crew member put down what he was holding and looked back at him, "What's wrong?"
"Ask a question." Dong Xuebin said, "How far is it from the pirate activity area?"
The crew member had a strange look on his face, "A ship was hijacked a few days ago, so the captain asked us to go around a little further, but now this area should be considered Pirate Activity Area." He pointed to the west, "That's Pirate Base over there. There isn't even a 'government'. Our current location should be relatively far away from pirates, but we don't know if we will encounter them. Let's just hope for the best."
Dong Xuebin was stunned, "Is it over here?"
The crew member hummed, "It'll be early in the morning. Didn't you see everyone's expressions?"
Dong Xuebin looked around, and sure enough, the crew members on the deck looked wary, so they said, "Do you know how many pirates there are in this gang? Are they divided into factions?"
The crew member said, "I don't know the exact number of people, but there must be more than one leader. I heard there are many, and the competition among them is not small."
"Then which pirate was it that hijacked the ship a few days ago?"
"I don't know about that. In fact, I haven't seen them. If I had, we probably wouldn't be able to escape. Those pirates' boats are much faster than ours."
"That's it, thank you."
The crew member said, "I'm not telling you, you really shouldn't have come this time."
Dong Xuebin nodded, "Thanks for the reminder."
The crew member wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Dong Xuebin's expression, he still said nothing.
These days, all the crew members have basically met Dong Xuebin, and also know that Dong Xuebin is here for sightseeing, as if to experience life. Everyone shook their heads after hearing this. Although they admired the courage of this young man Dong Xuebin, they still felt that he There are so many ships and so many routes. The chance of encountering pirates is indeed not too high, but it is not absolute. If we do encounter them, they will probably be killed by the pirates before they can escape. No one would have thought that there would be people like Dong Xuebin who would actually come to travel? Even these sailors, if their families were not poor, they would have quit working long ago. If they were rich, who would risk their lives to run this route?
Under the si, many crew members were also talking about Dong Xuebin.
"This young man is really not afraid of death."
"I think he is a spoiled child and doesn't know anything, right?"
"But I haven't gotten seasick after sailing for so many days, which is pretty good."
"Looking at his small body, I don't know how long he can last. Why travel at this time?" The Power of Time and Wealth 898
"Yes, if I encounter a pirate, I think he will be so frightened."
"Bah, bah, bah! What are you talking about?"
"Yes, everything is smooth sailing, it must be smooth sailing!"
Dong Xuebin vaguely heard the discussions of the sailors around him, but turned a deaf ear to them and stared straight into the distance. Pirate Base remained silent for a long time, his eyes filled with deep thought. The Republic's warship was probably gone the day after he left, and he didn't know if it had reached this sea area. Now Qian Qian must still be in the hands of the pirates. What Dong Xuebin was thinking about was how to see his daughter and go directly to the pirate base? But with everything in front of me being the sea, I'm afraid it's unlikely. Otherwise, how about using stop to avoid the crowds and land after arriving at Mainland? Find those pirates again?
Dong Xuebin After much deliberation, I still felt that the latter had a greater chance of success, so I had an idea in my mind and went through the plan over and over again.
five minutes...
Ten minutes...
half an hour...
Suddenly, someone on the deck shouted.
"Hey, in front of you is..."
"There's a boat ahead!"
"Captain! Captain!"
Dong Xuebin also saw it. There was indeed a white object directly in front of him.
Niu Dazhao strode onto the deck, holding a telescope and looking into the distance. Suddenly, Niu Dazhao's face changed drastically, "Change the course quickly! It's a pirate!"
"What?"
"Pirate?"
The crew was in chaos!
Niu Dazhao said loudly, "These bastards! Why did they come from such a far sea? Are they still standing there motionless? What are you doing? Who are you waiting for?"
Generally, the pirates responsible for hijacking ships are speedboats, which are the lifeboats of some staff who stay around when they go boating in the park. They are similar to that, extremely fast, and very easy to move. So when they first saw a ship several times larger than the speedboat in front of them, the crew did not take it seriously. Who would have thought that it was actually a pirate, and Pirate Ship was still parked there waiting quietly? This is obviously beyond their knowledge!
Niu Dazhao shouted, "Quick! Turn quickly!"
Everyone looked anxious and got busy!
"Not good!" Suddenly, Niu Dazhao, who was holding the telescope, said nervously, "They are coming! They are coming towards us! There are several speedboats next to them!" The Power of Time and Wealth 898
Speedboat?
And a speedboat?
Everyone's faces turned pale and they were all panicked.
Faced with death, the crew tried their best.
But of course the speed of their cargo ship couldn't compare with the opponent's speedboat. Then everyone saw the pirates getting closer and closer!
It's over!
There's no way to escape!
Niu Dazhao also saw that the situation was over, and threw the telescope on the deck angrily, "These bastards! Brothers! You will die anyway! Fight with them!"
However, no one responded to him.
Fight? Pirates have guns, how can they fight?
If they are captured without restraint, the country can still pay a ransom for them, and there is still a glimmer of hope for them, but if they resist, their lives will definitely not be saved!
The crew members all looked sad and angry.
Niu Dazhao also said something angry. Seeing everyone like this, he sighed heavily and said nothing more.
Only Dong Xuebin looked at the white dots not far away with a calm face, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at them without blinking. Did the pirate ship always park there? Several speedboats and a main ship were also dispatched? why is that? Did you know they would take this route? This is obviously impossible. Could it be that these pirates are the same group of people who hijacked Qian Qian? Have you made an appointment with the warships of the Republic to trade here? They parked the ship there early. Are they waiting for the warships of the Republic to arrive? It's possible!
Dong Xuebin couldn't help but smile coldly!
I didn't come to find you, but you came to find me?
Well done! It saves you a lot of effort, buddy... rq!.
