Chapter 567 The Neglected People
Zhao Changhe didn't hear the conversation here, but as long as he analyzed that Hai Qianfan belonged to the "Royal Pirate Group", he could guess why Hai Qianfan was waiting for Sanniang with his position as "Third Master" vacant.
In their eyes, Sanniang's escape was most likely due to a tacit understanding with Hai Pinglan. Since they were later taken back by Hai Pinglan, of course they must have an attitude and leave Sanniang's place waiting for the princess. This is a political issue.
But just as Sanniang couldn't figure out why they betrayed, Hai Pinglan also had a hard time judging the reason for their betrayal.
At that time, he was indeed a loyal minister. He could not bear to see Sanniang's mother being killed innocently, so he protected the princess and fled. Later, the misunderstanding was resolved, and it may also have the meaning of atonement. He loyally looted and collected resources for Hai Pinglan, and he has not lost his chain for so many years.
How come at the end of the day, when Hai Pinglan had already begun to plan a counterattack to kill Poseidon, he suddenly rebelled?
"Could it be because it was controlled by the Sea King's erosion?" Xia Chichi also became interested and helped Hai Pinglan analyze it.
Hai Pinglan shook his head: "If there is, it can't be hidden from me... I am more sensitive to Poseidon's aura than he imagined. Poseidon and I have had a tacit understanding for so many years, and one of the benchmarks is not to touch my body without permission. A close confidant, otherwise the tacit understanding will immediately collapse. The status of Hai Qianfan and Hai Changkong is my focus, and there should not be any problems. I can even confirm that a few months ago, the Emperor of the Sea did not find where the pirates were."
Xia Chichi asked curiously: "What could be the reason? You were found recently, and you are afraid that the Poseidon is too powerful?"
Hai Pinglan’s eyes were deep: “I want to know too.”
On Dong'an Island, Sanniang looked at Hai Qianfan coldly, also waiting for his explanation.
Hai Qianfan raised his head and looked at the sky. It was clear and cloudless.
He suddenly laughed: "Actually, these things are very simple. It's just that you are entangled in your game with gods and demons, but you ignore our ordinary humanity."
Sanniang said coldly: "You say it."
"When I was young, the Dragon King took me as his adopted son and taught me martial arts. He was very kind to me. Later, he fled overseas with him. My father-in-law led everyone to overcome obstacles and won our respect. In his early years, he was full of passion and was willing to devote his whole life to your family. , this is true." Hai Qianfan looked away from the sky, looking at Sanniang with a somewhat soft look: "Sanniang, if you had been here, it might be better..."
Sanniang was stunned for a moment.
"Sanniang, the pirate group was united to protect you from Penglai. When you said it was disbanded, it was actually disbanded. Later, His Majesty came to visit and solved the misunderstanding. The old brothers were very excited. To be honest, I was very excited at that time and happy to continue serving His Majesty..."
“Wait a minute, what was the misunderstanding back then?”
Hai Qianfan looked around and saw a large group of people, including Shui Ren. He did not elaborate, but shook his head and said: "In short, the reason why everyone started to become pirates again is because Your Majesty, Mr. Zhao said that the Royal Pirate Corps was very accurate. But here comes the problem. The pirate has been alone for a long time. Your Majesty may not always be able to trust you. Even the old brothers will think that I have different intentions? So I must continue to use your name and erect this memorial tablet to relieve everyone's worries. suspect."
Sanniang said calmly: "Indeed."
"But Sanniang..." Hai Qianfan sighed: "When you have led the people across the East China Sea for so many years, you have been so majestic and majestic. When you give an order, everyone bows to you. Your authority is not inferior to that of any king. However, the income you earn is basically donated to Penglai. The power I have developed through so much hard work will still be in vain, waiting for you to come back... What would you think if it were me?"
Sanniang said: "I will try to slowly build my own team, change my ways, and become the king myself."
Hai Qianfan said: "Over the years, some of my old brothers died in battle, and some retired to live in seclusion on Taiping Island to do logistics. I trained Zhen Ming and others, and the pirate group has slowly iterated. Later it was renamed the Nuhai Gang. He claims to be the gang leader because he is preparing to decouple from Penglai."
Zhao Changhe couldn't help but interject: "It turns out that the Tianyuan Pirate Group is also called the Nuhai Gang, and there is this factor. I really never thought about it."
Hai Qianfan said: "About that time, Sanniang came to our door as Xuanwu and established mutual trade. I was originally happy, because it meant that we had another sales channel that was decoupled from Penglai, and we had Daxia. ship technical support. But at the same time, that time also made me realize how much influence Sanniang has in the pirate group. The publicity and curiosity of a false leader for a long time, coupled with Sanniang’s beauty and strength, even the new gang members Sanniang's acceptance is extremely high, and my brother supports me unconditionally, so I have to act completely obedient...Through this incident, Sanniang has invisibly established the brand that the Nuhai Gang still has the surname Yuan, and for many years Decoupling prepares for ruin.”
Sanniang was in a daze and said nothing.
Zhao Changhe said: "If Sanniang dies, will this problem disappear?"
"She is dead, and many problems can be solved." Hai Qianfan glanced at Hai Changkong and said calmly: "The same goes for Changkong."
Hai Changkong smiled and did not answer.
Hai Qianfan said: "This war was planned in advance, and it really had nothing to do with Sanniang."
Zhao Changhe said: "But it happened that Sanniang came at this time?"
“So you thought about it and suddenly thought that you might as well switch to Poseidon?”
Hai Qianfan defaults. "This is because Sanniang's existence has become your inner demon. In order to get rid of her, you have abandoned the meaning of your life." Zhao Changhe sighed: "You have never thought about it, even if you kill Sanniang , the pirate group may not be yours, you can do whatever the Emperor of the Sea wants you to do, just a different father?"
Hai Qianfan’s face was expressionless: “The Emperor of the Sea has supported so many island kings, and I am the only one who can support him. All I have to do is believe in him. In contrast, Hai Pinglan cannot allow me to control the pirate group forever.”
Zhao Changhe nodded: "So there was that night attack. You took the initiative to leak the location of the pirate group to the Hai Clan. The basic meaning was actually to kill Sanniang with a borrowed knife. And there are too many people on Dong'an Island who are loyal to their father and daughter. Just get rid of all the remaining evils."
"good."
“There are so many innocent people here, so you don’t care?”
“The rest are just a bunch of brothel girls, cooks and porters, how can they be considered human beings?”
Sanniang looked at the sky and said nothing.
Hai Qianfan said that in their game with gods and demons, they forgot to consider the humanity of ordinary people.
This may be true. Neither Hai Pinglan nor Sanniang herself had considered this. As a result, something unexpected happened to someone she had never thought about, and the ship almost capsized.
However, from Hai Qianfan's own perspective, he also ignores more ordinary people, whether it is human nature or life.
Zhao Changhe clicked his tongue twice: "It's a pity that you didn't expect that Sanniang is not a second-level secret treasure, but a third-level secret. The water-man structure cannot defeat Sanniang at all. But you can't secretly plot against Sanniang, because the pirate group is so There are many people watching...are you frustrated?"
Hai Qianfan looked at Sanniang, who had been silent, and then at Shui Ren, who had recovered completely, and finally said: "What happened here really has nothing to do with you, it's fine if you don't come... Now you're here, what's the matter?" It's useless to say that you two are not strong enough to deal with us at the same time. Now that we have answered our questions, can you go on your way with satisfaction?"
Zhao Changhe asked curiously: "It's weird, why do you think our strength is not enough to deal with you? Because of the army?"
Hai Qianfan laughed: "Although Shui-man was injured by your design, Sanniang herself is also injured. She may not be able to capture Shui-man in a while. Otherwise, why are you standing here listening to the story? Is it really just out of curiosity? Or because you are also fighting. recover."
Zhao Changhe said: "Then I'm not hurt."
"You?" Hai Qianfan looked at him for a long time and laughed: "Although you are powerful, do you really think you can deal with me and Changkong at the same time, plus Zhen Ming?"
Zhao Changhe said seriously: "I think it can...three moves? No, one move?"
Hai Qianfan’s smile turned into laughter: “My head is here, if you can take it with a knife, then come and get it!”
Before he could finish his words, Zhao Changhe slashed him horizontally with his sword.
The sea breeze seems to have become gentler, and the waves hitting the shore have turned into drizzle, so refreshing that people completely forget about the hidden murderous intention.
By the time he reacted, the tip of the knife was already at his throat.
The small building listened to the spring rain all night.
Hai Qianfan was well prepared for the second level of the secret treasure. He let out a "choking" sound and put his vertical knife on his side, just in time to block the knife. The laughter became even louder: "This is your one..."
Before he could finish the word "move", there was a sudden sound of wind behind him, and another equally fast knife swept across the water like a sea eagle, gently grazing the side of his neck.
Blood suddenly spurted out. Hai Qianfan's eyes widened and his smile froze.
He turned his head in disbelief: "Hai Changkong, you..."
Zhao Changhe had already expected that the dragon bird turned directly and passed by the throat of Hua Zhenming, who didn't know what happened next to him.
Two generations of pirates died together, and they didn’t know what happened until they died.
Hai Changkong put away the knife and took a sip: "Who told you that I am the same as you, where is your mother?"
