Late Ming sea owl

Chapter 18

After two cups of tea, Lin Hai returned to the yard of Huang Cheng's house and heard Zhu Niang's voice from a distance, as if he had a dispute with someone.Lin Hai looked inside the courtyard and saw all three members of the Shi family in the courtyard, as well as a tall, strange man.

Just as he was about to go in, he suddenly saw that the man's appearance was somewhat similar to that of Shi Wusi.Lin Hai suddenly stopped and hid behind the courtyard wall.

Just listen to the strange man say: "Sister, I am also your boss, you can tell the truth, I just don't recognize this marriage."

"You still have the nerve to mention that you are the boss, bah." Zhu Niang spat on the ground.

Without waiting for the man to reply, Zhu Niang followed up with a series of barbs: "When my father was about to starve to death, where was you, the boss? When Lao Wang came to force me to marry him, where was you, the boss? The dog official led the messenger. Where were you, the boss, when people came to your door?"

The man argued: "How do I know these things? Besides, when I returned home, I killed Lao Wang and the dog officer. After all, I avenged you."

Zhu Niang sneered and said: "Drink! Master Shi Da is so powerful. Now you have become a thief. You have deep eyes and don't like my little sister. Let's go our separate ways from now on. Just ask Abba and Qizai , if he is willing to be a thief with you, you can take him away."

She said, pulling Qizai over: "Tell me first, were you raised by your aunt, by your aunt or by your father?"

Qizai's eyes lit up: "I want to be a pirate." Zhu Niang was so angry that she was speechless for a long time.

The man also became angry: "Sister, you are not ashamed, because you are a wild man who denies all your relatives. I am still waiting here to see what kind of thing that guy is? If not, I will chop him up and feed him to the dog." Who do you want to marry?"

"You dare!" Zhu Niang was anxious, "If you dare to take action, I will fight with you!"

The brother and sister were chatting in a hurry. Shi Wusi had been silent for the whole time. At this moment, he finally spoke: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about in this whole family? Ah Zai, your younger sister has a stubborn temper. Just leave her alone."

Zhu Niang sneered and said, "What kind of family are you talking about? When I was a thief, who didn't recognize him? Now it's better. When I come back as a thief, you recognize this son again."

Shi Wusi's face turned red and he was speechless.The man was silent for a long time, and his tone suddenly softened: "Sister, the boss is doing this for you. What kind of accountant can you and that...named Lin be? Why don't you find someone brave for you? Good boy..."

"Hahaha." Hearing this, Lin Hai smiled and walked into the yard. He had already recognized that the man was Shi Yisan, Qizai's father, who was Zhu Niang's brother. It seemed that he had made a name for himself at sea. I somehow found Macau.

Zhu Niang once said that when she beat Xiao Mu Niang, the one who loved her the most was her eldest brother.Listening to Shi Yisan's tone just now, as long as Zhu Niang persists, he can't defeat this girl. His last words are tantamount to giving in.

Lin Hai walked up to Shi Yisan, put on a smile, crossed his hands and sang "Fai Nai": "Brother, I have never had a chance, but today I can see you, I am polite."

When Shi Yisan heard this, he knew who it was, and said with a livid face: "Who is your uncle? Don't play nice with me, you have to be sensible, get out of here as soon as possible, and don't risk your own life."

Lin Hai deliberately provoked him to take action. He straightened up and said calmly: "I was born with a tough life. If you want to kill me, I'm afraid you don't have the ability."

Shi Yisan was furious and drew out the sword from his waist with a clang.Zhu Niang shouted: "Boss, are you really going to force me to death?" Shi Yisan paused. At this moment, Lin Haiyi turned around to the side of him holding the knife, grabbed his wrist with both hands and raised his head. Turning over, he leaned his back against the stone wall and pushed his elbow up with his shoulder.

This was exactly the technique of using bare hands to hold a knife in the special grappling technique. When Lin Hai exerted force on his hands and shoulders, Shi Yisan's elbow joint bent inwards due to the force. The pain was unbearable, and the sword fell to the ground with a clang.Lin Hai took his right arm and threw Shibi down to the ground.

There was silence in the yard for a moment, and Qizai, a mentally retarded child, suddenly said: "Master, just teach me this."

Shi Yisan was so angry that his head hurt. Lin Hai stood up with a suppressed smile and said, "Brother, I accept."

"My mother, who is your uncle?" Shi Yisan jumped up from the ground without picking up the sword, and punched Lin Hai's mouth and nose with a jealous fist.

Lin Hai dodged, grabbed his right arm joint with both hands, and quickly let go: "Brother, please spare me. But if Zhu Niang hadn't shouted, I would have been killed by my uncle." Ghost, I risk my life to stand in front of you, I just want you to know that I treat Zhu Niang sincerely."

This person really has some skills and is a good handler on joints!Shi Yisan's second attack was just to test him. It was rare that this boy knew how to save face for him and spoke beautifully.

Talent, as long as he is given space to display, he may not wrong Zhu Niang.Anyway, Zhu Niang is determined, and Shi Yisan knows very well about his sister's temperament. Is he really going to force her to death?
Thinking of this, Shi Yisan laughed loudly and said: "Good boy, you can talk. It's not difficult for me, Shi, to recognize this family member. As long as you don't act like a bird accountant and have the courage to go to sea with me." How about a break-in?"

Lin Hai smiled and said: "Of course I want to go to the sea, but I'm afraid that my uncle's temple is too small to accommodate the true Buddha."

Shi Yisan almost got angry. Why are you dragging a poor accounting clerk with you? Do you still want to go to sea on your own?By the way...can this kid really talk?

That night, Lin Hai took Shi Yisan out for a drink, intending to find out about his uncle's background.

Shi Yisan is no longer called Shi Yisan. This name was given to him by Shi Wusi according to ancestral secrets because he was born on the third day of the Lunar New Year.In the first year of Tianqi, Shi Yisan joined a group of Danmin pirates. He felt that the name was too tacky, so he changed his name to Shibi.

There are only about [-] people in this group of Danmin pirates, which can only be considered a medium-sized group among the large and small pirate groups in the Pearl River Estuary.However, their boss, Li Zhongguo, is quite famous, and he and the local pirate leader Xie Tianyou are brothers, so Shibi and his gang often act together with Xie Tianyou's gang.

Youdao is "shooting the first bird". This Xie Tianyou was notorious in the Guangdong waters. He even dared to rob the wealthy families along the coast. He had long been on the blacklist of the Guangdong governor.

It's just that the imperial navy's management of the navy is a joke these days. Especially the coastal defense of Guangdong has never been taken as seriously as that of Fujian and Zhejiang. It was not until the 45th year of Jiajing that a water stronghold was established at the call of Wu Guifang, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Yu Dayou, the commander-in-chief of the army. The Wanli Korean War Later, it suffered repeated disarmament, and by the time of Tianqi, it was only a mere flower stand.

Although the Guangdong Navy was of no help, it could not withstand foreign aid.In the spring of the second year of the Apocalypse, the Guangdong government ordered the Macau Portuguese to go abroad to help in the war. Xie Tianyou's gang across the Pearl River Estuary suffered a disaster. More than 1000 brothers were killed overseas, and more than a hundred were captured alive.

The gangsters from Shibi were joining forces with Xie Tianyou at the time, and most of them were killed or wounded as a result. The leader, Li Zhongguo, fell into the water during the naval battle, and his life or death is unknown.Shibi was on a ten-oared sampan and narrowly escaped. The ten brothers who survived on the boat ran all the way to Guangxi.
