Hearing that Mu Qingya went to Beigang because of pirate troubles, Wu Zhe immediately set off to clean up the people.
Most of the female guards in Tianbo Mansion went with Wu Zhe. Although she was too lazy to bring people, it felt good to lead a group of women soldiers. Yingying Yanyan was full of excitement. And there is a seaport over there, if there is a place with beautiful scenery where you can play in the water, there must be a lot of benefits for having more girls.
Of course, that was when all the pirates sank to the bottom of the sea and there were no wolf eyes peeping.
Beigang is very close to the village of the Lianyin clan, less than 20 miles away, and arrived quickly under the leadership of a few young girls from the Lianyin clan.
This is the seaside, and the sound of the waves can be heard from a distance.
On the way, Wu Zhe had already listened to the introduction. Although the Lianyin family has declined for many years compared to the Magic Sound Valley, they are a family with Xuanwu strength after all, and they are still very famous within a hundred miles nearby.
Beigang is an important port along the northeast coast, and a large amount of fish, shrimp and other aquatic products are produced from here. Especially on the beaches along the way, many clam hunters will unearth valuable seafood treasures such as pearls. So this place is coveted by many forces.
Beigang was originally one of the territories of the Lianyin clan, and because the patriarch has always been kind to others, he is also very popular with the local fishermen and clam pickers. It's just that after being restricted by the Magic Sound Valley, the Lianyin family's control over Beigang has weakened, so many bandits and pirates often come to harass them.
These villains bully Lianyin's clan, most of them are female-headed, and many of them seem to be unable to speak, so they are even more presumptuous. Although they are not considered to be Xuanwu powerful characters, but because the Lianyin family has always had no time to pay attention, the scourge of this harassment has never been resolved.
After Mu Qingya took over the power of the family, although she didn't have much determination to quell all the rioting forces, these pirates just happened to provoke her. Mu Niang naturally persuaded Mu Qingya to use these pirates as the best stepping stone to build up her military prestige.
The Lianyin clan is about to announce their strong rise recently. The prosperity of a family is not just a matter of being strong by one person, but requires the submission of various forces to form a huge power chain of interests to jointly promote. If these pirates are killed, it will naturally deter other Xiaoxiao. It can also allow more neutral forces to join in and strengthen the background of Lianyin's family.
With the help of Wu Zhe's mixed blood pill, Mu Niang can basically speak. It's just that the time has dragged on for more than ten years and it is difficult to restore to the best condition, and it sounds like the voice is still slightly hoarse. Singing can't be counted on.
Even so, Mu Niang is very grateful to Wu Zhe. Due to the fact that there must always be someone stationed in the clan, most of the elders followed Mu Qingya to pacify the pirates, so she sent a very smart girl to accompany Wu Zhe.
The close girl is only ten years old. If Wu Zhe hadn't broken the coercion of the Magic Sound Valley, she might suffer from the persecution of her voice in a year or two. Naturally, she was extremely grateful to Wu Zhe, and accompanied Wu Zhe to Beigang very attentively.
"This estuary to the sea is Beigang! Isn't it huge?!" The little girl proudly pointed at the port facilities on the vast beach.
"..." Wu Zhe didn't know what to say.
Three docks, two gravel piles, and the rest are natural beaches. I saw two small fishing boats and a larger Yang sailboat. The other 20 or so fishermen and beach dwellers were busy, and there was nothing worth noting about the rest.
All right. It's because I have seen too many port buildings, so I don't like it. Such an outlet to the sea may be very valuable in this world.
But Wu Zhe still felt that it was not worth Mu Qingya coming here to calm down the pirates, it was not worth much at all.
Wu Zhe also asked strangely: "This is a beach, why did you build a port here and set up an outlet to the sea?"
"Huh? Can't there be an outlet on the beach?" The girl didn't understand.
"Sluice gates should be built on reefs or other terrain to form a shallow water stable area..." Wu Zhe felt that he couldn't understand for a while: "Anyway, it's not suitable here. For example, isn't it easy for boats to run aground by the beach?"
"It's stranded, just ask a few people to push it. And when the tide is high, it won't be stranded." The girl also knows a lot about the seaside, so she quickly answered.
"..." Wu Zhe slapped his forehead.
I am really stupid. How far can the shipbuilding industry in this world go? Generally, fishermen only get sailboats and rudder boats at most, and many of them are sampans. How can there be serious grounding? I am really worrying about myself.
Well, the environment here is really good.
A world without pollution. The sky is blue, the sea is blue, and it is refreshing to look at.
"Ah—" Wu Zhe couldn't help but become poetic.
The female guards of the Qi State all knew that she was famous for her talents, and all of them pricked up their ears to hear a good sentence.
Facing the magnificent scenery, Wu Zhe couldn't help but open his arms and sang loudly: "Ocean, it's full of water~"
"..." The female guards almost stumbled.
"That's right, it's all water. But there are also fish, shrimps and crabs." The girl nodded in agreement with the scene.
"Hey, heroes see the same thing." Wu Zhe said happily, "Then I'll say one more thing."
Sure enough, it was a joke just now, but this time it's going to be real. The female guards regained their spirits.
"Ah—" Wu Zhe elongated his voice again, then paused. Scratching his head: "I haven't seen Qingya, I have no inspiration."
The female guards secretly rolled their eyes.
At this time, the servants of Lianyin's family on duty came to visit them, and explained that Mu Qingya led several elders and experts of the clan, and was negotiating with the pirates.
"Negotiation?" Wu Zhe was taken aback. Immediately understood that Mu Qingya might be soft-hearted, and wanted to be courteous before fighting.
Oh, my Miss Qingya, how can you talk about the way of soldiers' courtesy to pirates? Wouldn't it be most convenient to sneak attack and crush with hatred
What do those elders do? Don't know how to stop and persuade? Wu Zhe also complained in his heart to the accompanying elders of the Lianyin clan.
She had forgotten that Mu Qingya's prestige in the clan was actually very high due to the identity of this pianling comprehender who had finally emerged in the past twenty years. The elders also supported her, and considering that the pirate's basaltic level is too low, I can easily pick up four or five star xuanqi masters on my side, so I don't have to worry about it at all, so I naturally followed Mu Qingya's way of peace talks first conduct.
According to the instructions of the watchman, Wu Zhe and others discovered that they could see a large stretch of beach after turning around the dock, and dozens of people were fighting against each other there, as if they were competing for something.
Wu Zhe didn't want to show off his skills, instead of leaping, he just trotted over with dozens of guards.
"You Lianyin clan don't obey the rules!"
"Wow! You have help!"
Before they got close, the pirates who were facing Wu Zhe and the others made a lot of noise.
"Ruoyao!" Mu Qingya exclaimed joyfully, got up and rushed over.
She was dressed in a blue plain dress, making her even more beautiful.
"Why are you here? Is Jin's affairs settled?" When she got closer, Mu Qingya stretched out her hands to hug Wu Zhe, but her face flushed instantly, and she felt embarrassed.
Wu Zhe unceremoniously hugged her in his arms a few times, fearing that she would be embarrassed in public, so he let go, and said, "I heard that some pirates came to make trouble, so I rushed back to deal with them."
"Hey—this little girl has such a big tone!" The obvious leader among the pirates smiled and said, "I thought some kind of master would come, but I didn't expect another beautiful lady. Lianyin's family really has no man left. , it’s all women who come here.”
The pirates laughed.
They had carefully scrutinized Wu Zhe and the others, and saw that the dozen or so people who came were all women, so they didn't have any scruples about foreign aid.
Of course, even though they laughed so much, they didn't really have any confidence in their hearts. But with the gambling game as his reliance, he can still struggle a bit.
Wu Zhe didn't get angry because he didn't know the situation. Seeing that the two sides seemed to be confronting each other and competing for something, they asked about Mu Qingya's situation.
"That's what happened." Mu Qingya gently took Wu Zhe's hand and held it tightly, ignoring the noise of the pirates, and told Wu Zhe the situation.
Pirates have robbed fishing boats in Beigang several times recently. Although there was not too much killing, some fishermen were killed or injured, so some beach residents asked Lianyin's family to come forward to calm down.
Mu Qingya came with a few elders and masters, she was not a vegetarian either, she found the pirates and released five-star profound energy.
With the help of Wu Zhe, she has steadily climbed to the five-star level of profound energy. Elder Bai was amazed at how quickly her level improved, and she was simply astonished as a genius. If it wasn't for not testing the spar, I'm afraid she would have to see if her aptitude was wrongly judged.
When she broke through to the five-star realm, Elder Bai left the exercise books and left, and rushed to the southeast border to support King Qi and the suzerain's army. Otherwise, if he blows his beard on these pirates, he can help Mu Qingya get rid of them by the way.
The pirate leader is already an outstanding fighter in this line, but he is only at the level of three stars.
Seeing that Mu Qingya's level of profound energy was so high, the pirate leader was immediately shocked and dared not make any mistakes. Seeing that the other party seemed to be more polite and didn't say anything harsh, he began to be active and wanted to keep some benefits.
Mu Qingya could also see that the other party wanted to mess around, but she considered whether she could commit more crimes, so she listened to what they had to say.
As a result of some negotiations, the two sides agreed to take turns, each with a problem. If the opponent can catch it, it will be considered a victory. Whoever reaches three wins first wins.
If Mu Qingya's side wins, the pirates will go to the victims of the beach people, hand over three pirate lives to stay, and the rest will not be able to invade the Beigang territory with broken legs.
If the Pirate side wins, they will be released safely this time, and they will not be able to interfere with their activities in Beigang for the next three months.
The two sides are not an equal agreement, because Mu Qingya still has the advantage in force, so it is basically fair.
"Don't do it, don't do it!" Wu Zhe kept shaking his head.
In this age of chivalry, Wu Zhe felt that they were at a disadvantage if they were willing to accept such an agreement.
