Li Ke saw it very clearly. The shadow cast a soul-stirring gaze toward the small boat, a sinister look!
Why is there only one look? Because the sinister guy only has one eye, and the left eye is covered with a dark eyepatch, which makes him look even more sinister.
Coupled with the knife-like face, the one-eyed man gives people the impression...
Li Ke couldn't help but tremble. There were all kinds of people in the vast sea, but this one gave people the impression that he could never forget him no matter how hard he tried.
It seems that he should also be awarded a best appearance award.
Li Ke put down the densely packed sea map and decided not to explore the pirates in this area. Staying here would deviate from the original goal of "beating up" King Luo Bin.
And without the support of the military, it is impossible to exterminate pirates.
The most important thing to do is to focus on heading south.
But unexpectedly, the north wind suddenly became lighter, so small that the small tent boat could slowly drift forward by relying on the current.
Looking around... there is nothing on the vast sea, and the sky is getting darker...
What a fate.
Li Ke reluctantly lowered the sails and officially became "Captain Li Ke".
Fortunately, the surge is not big, so we can find an island as soon as possible to spend the night first.
In fact, there are quite a few islands marked on the charts, so there is no need to worry too much.
But Li Ke was suddenly startled while he was beating his oars. Unexpectedly, he thought of Mu Yue...
These days without beauty traps would be too boring!
The vast sea night is windless and dull.
Captain Li Ke, row quickly!
He rowed in the direction of the fire for a long time, and suddenly found that he had paddled into a piece of active water.
Compared with the lifeless sea surface before, the waves here are still rippling, and it seems that it will take a long time to completely subside.
Weird, but definitely not related to ghosts.
This should be the cross track formed by the two wakes after the two boats drove away.
Now it can be confirmed that at least two ships appeared in the place where the fire was lit just now.
Li Ke couldn't help but be vigilant: on windless seas, it is rare for two ships to encounter each other.
The reason for the multi-ship encounter is most likely...
The answer to the mystery was quickly revealed, as a pile of corpses floated in front of them, in civilian clothes, shaking in disorder.
Li Ke paddled hard along the direction of the track, and finally discovered two huge shadows in the darkness.
The outlines are blurred, one is huge and the other is slightly smaller.
The tall mast made a dull sound, echoing the silent darkness.
Li Ke tried hard to open his eyes wide, trying to confirm the weirdness in the darkness.
The two dark ship shadows should be pirates, and one of them may be a merchant ship that has been controlled by pirates.
Because usually a large ship will not turn off all the lights, let alone both ships at the same time...
Li Ke paddled hard and wanted to take off his already soaked pants.
Sweating like a pillar, tracking two large ships was not an easy task at all.
But Li Ke was startled again, and a towering shadow suddenly appeared on the dark sea.
It's a huge island that seems to be a pirate's nest.
Li Ke quickly gave up the idea of taking off his pants and lay motionless in the darkness, trying to stifle his own breathing.
A string of torches lit up on the island, and the sharp cold light of weapons flashed from time to time in the shaking firelight.
The huge sea-going ship in front stirred up rows of large oars, dragging smaller sea-going ships straight in.
This is a circular island with a narrow entrance. Judging from the size of the island, a lot of ships should be able to stay in the dark interior.
No one said anything, but everything was so orderly and the scene was very professional.
After the two ships sailed in, the guiding torches on the island were immediately extinguished, not wanting to leave any sound to the outside world.
It was extremely quiet, and the sea surface also returned to the misty darkness, leaving only the waves of the track still swaying heavily.
"Hiss." Li Ke sighed secretly, not expecting that the two boats he just entered were the two he encountered during the day.
The smaller one is the lychee boat where the forehead mole is, and the larger one is the Mulan boat where the one-eyed dragon is.
It seems that the lychee boat was robbed by the Mulan boat, and the sinister one-eyed dragon on the Mulan boat was indeed a vicious pirate.
and……
Li Ke sighed deeply: Since the litchi boat was dragged into the pirate's lair, the people on the boat naturally lost the possibility of survival.
And inside such a pirate stronghold, prisoners would never be released easily.
According to the markings on the chart, there are no islands suitable for habitation in this area...
Li Ke hid the small awning in a hidden rock crevice, and then touched this pirate island full of evil spirits.
The island is very large, and the dark and dense jungle requires no guessing to know that it is full of infinite dangers.
Silent morning fog, no wind, and a putrid smell permeated the air.
Li Ke lifted up a dense clump of branches and leaves... and sighed.
Under the huge tree roots, there were scattered white human bones. It was impossible to tell who these people were, but judging from the thick pattern of the human bones and the traces of injuries, they must have experienced a very fierce battle before their death. .
Perhaps no one knows that there is a strange mound next to it, and the flesh and blood on these bones have also created a prosperous ant nest.
The busy ants are running and hiking all the way, perhaps transporting fresh nutrients from elsewhere.
The feast of the jungle, cruel and natural...
Li Ke had no choice but to take a detour, but soon encountered another problem.
A swamp lay across the forest, with dead tree-like crocodiles floating quietly, and huge bubbles appearing on the green-speckled water surface from time to time.
Hiss, a big snake leaned down from a high branch and looked at the crocodile.
Penetrate people...
This kind of island is indeed suitable as a pirate's lair, splitting the fog-wet branches and vines.
Li Ke kept approaching the central ridge of the circular island. After stepping on piles of bones, he was panting.
However, during the break, you still need to quickly pile up a pile of stone signposts to avoid losing the correct direction when you return.
Otherwise, a lonely person can easily become a permanent part of the jungle world.
It's boring, and the high forest tops reflect the dark sky from time to time, which makes people feel tight in their chests and make them want to just leave.
but……
Li Ke raised his head and couldn't help but be startled: What the hell?
Unexpectedly, there was a faint bird's nest on a tall forest tree. If I hadn't been greedily looking at the sky just now, I would have missed it.
But the shape of this bird's nest is extremely weird. It's a bit big, and it seems... more like a human nest.
Li Ke put away the pot bag and climbed up. He used two rope waist rings to alternately assist him. It was not too difficult to climb up.
The trouble was that it was windless and dull, and the large beads of sweat on my forehead kept seeping into my eyes, which was really miserable.
