Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity
Chapter 556 Infiltrating the Inside
Yu Changsheng chuckled lightly, "Who said you betrayed me? You're overthinking it."
Lu Sandao instantly collapsed to the ground, letting out a sigh of relief. Yu Changsheng's gaze had truly terrified him.
"Boss Yu, then tell me, who betrayed you?"
Yu Changsheng stood up and helped him up. "Heh, who said I meant someone betrayed me?"
"I suspect that someone has been monitoring me all along, but it was inconvenient for them to hide once we got to the sea, which is why they lost track of us."
"We had no choice but to send people to search for us. However, although the North Sea is vast, it was only a matter of time before this merchant ship was discovered."
Lu Sandao stood up, dusted himself off, and couldn't help but ask, "So, are we still staying on the ship? Won't we be discovered sooner or later?"
"It's safer to leave sooner rather than later."
Yu Changsheng shook his head. "I don't plan to leave for the time being. Without supplies and cover on this sea, we won't go far."
"Isn't the Serpent Fang Pirates searching for us? Let them search. When they come to us, we'll take the opportunity to infiltrate their ranks."
Lu Sandao exclaimed in surprise, "Does Boss Yu intend to let them capture you on purpose?"
"That's right. If the two of us were to barge in directly, we would definitely be questioned about our identities. But if we hide inside this merchant ship, we might be able to get away with it."
"In short, we'll have to see how things go. You absolutely mustn't let us down."
After explaining to Lu Sandao, Yu Changsheng also told the other two Purple Mansion True Monarchs about his purpose and asked them to cooperate.
If you are found, do not fight to the death. If you can run, run. If you can't escape, surrender and save your life.
On a small island at sea, several pirates were tidying up the messy weeds and dead trees around them.
They cleared out an open space and set up a simple wooden table, placing all the food and drinks they had brought with them on it.
A burly man staggered over, sat down on the ground with a disgruntled expression, and started gnawing on a roast chicken.
"Damn it, this is a really tough job. We've been searching at sea for days and haven't seen a single person."
Another person nearby chimed in, "That's right, I don't think we need to bother looking anymore, since we won't find it anyway."
"Why don't we just stay around here for a few days? The boss will naturally give up."
The other pirates around them felt the same way, lying on the ground in a state of disarray, some even picking up wine jugs and chugging it down.
The burly leader was also thinking, "Let the brothers rest on this island for a while, and then send out a few men to search the area every two hours."
"It would be great if we could find them, but if we can't, it's still a good thing we did our best."
The others agreed, and they immediately started drinking and chatting happily, creating quite a lively atmosphere.
At night, the flickering firelight and deafening snoring disturbed the peace of the entire island.
The burly man at the head of the group suddenly woke up and was about to go to urinate when he saw a burst of firelight suddenly appear in the distance.
"Someone's there!"
The burly man immediately woke up his companion and they crept towards the firelight.
At the bow of the merchant ship, Li Zixin gazed at the sea with a worried expression. He had been like this for the past few days, but tonight made him especially nervous.
Just as he was about to go back to rest, several dark shadows suddenly appeared on the sea and quickly approached.
Li Zixin immediately tried to shout for help, but the dark figure had already approached and struck him, causing him to instantly faint.
The shadowy figures immediately dispersed on the ship and began attacking the people on board.
Yu Changsheng, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, and Lu Sandao, who was beside him, also stood up.
Ordinary people cannot perceive abnormalities in their surroundings, but for the Purple Mansion True Lord, he is extremely sensitive to all changes in his surroundings.
Yu Changsheng asked Lu Sandao to go out and check, and to wake up the people on the boat.
Before long, chaos broke out on the merchant ship, and the two Purple Mansion True Lords on board fought against the invading pirates.
Lu Sandao then retreated back into the room and informed Yu Changsheng of the situation.
"Boss Yu, pirates have indeed discovered our presence. Should we make a move?"
Yu Changsheng strode to the door and asked in a low voice, "Don't make a move yet, let's see how things go first."
The battle outside didn't last long. The two Purple Mansion True Monarchs, seeing that the battle was not going to end well, and with Yu Changsheng's prior warning, didn't put up much resistance and immediately withdrew.
As for the other merchant ship crew members, they offered even less resistance and all surrendered.
Li Zixin knelt on the bow of the boat in despair, knowing that this time it was truly over.
At this moment, the burly man also came up to Li Zixin, grabbed him, and took out a portrait, asking, "Do you recognize this person?"
Upon seeing the face in the portrait, Li Zixin immediately recognized it as Yu Changsheng.
Li Zixin felt a mix of emotions, but still shook his head and said, "I don't recognize him."
His only hope now is Yu Changsheng, so how could he possibly betray him?
"Hmph! It had better be that way."
The burly man shoved Li Zixin to the ground and said to his other men, "Take everyone back and move all your things."
Meanwhile, Yu Changsheng had been secretly observing the situation. Seeing that the time was right, he instructed Lu Sandao to act according to the plan.
The two hid in a pre-set deck mechanism.
The passing pirates were completely unaware of the two individuals.
The crew members on the ship have all been taken into custody and locked in the cabin. Li Zixin has also been tied up and is unable to move.
The lack of news from Yu Changsheng filled Li Zixin with despair, making him believe that Yu Changsheng had secretly slipped away.
"Alas, I shouldn't have been so greedy that day."
The cabin was filled with wails. Li Zixin leaned against the wooden plank, still without any will to resist.
The crew members were kept inside for a day and a night, and everyone was already in terrible condition from the torture.
There was nothing to eat, nothing to drink, and even going to the toilet was a problem; the cabins were no longer fit for human habitation.
Fortunately, the boat docked at the shore at that moment.
Several pirates opened the hatch, and a stench hit them. They frowned, pinched their noses, and made the people inside come out.
After a day and a night of torment at sea, and with nothing to eat, the people inside had long since lost their strength.
The pirates had no choice but to pull out their whips and lash the crew before they could barely manage to leave the cabin.
Li Zixin vaguely stepped out of the cabin and saw a huge island surrounded by fog.
No one knew the location of this place, and Li Zixin was filled with utter despair. It seemed that he would be trapped in this place for the rest of his life.
After everyone in the cabin was brought ashore, Li Zixin discovered that it wasn't just their group that had been captured.
The pirates arrived at the same time on more than one ship, and they had sent many people beforehand.
They were all confined to a site on the coast.
Soon, Li Zixin was pushed into the field and given a sticky toy of unknown origin to him and the crew.
"I guess it's food."
Although he would never have eaten something so disgusting in the past.
But now, he's a prisoner, and he hasn't eaten all day. He's starving, so he doesn't care about anything else.
He ate what was in his hand, even though he was frowning.
After finishing his meal, Li Zixin felt a churning in his stomach. He suppressed the urge to vomit and looked around, but he couldn't find any trace of Yu Changsheng or Lu Sandao.
Could it be that both of them have escaped and haven't been caught?
Li Zixin knew that the two Purple Mansion True Monarchs that Yu Changsheng had arranged to protect them had already fled as soon as the battle began, so he didn't blame them.
Under such circumstances, it would be only natural to run away, especially since he hadn't given any reward at all; it was all just a verbal promise.
However, the fact that Yu Changsheng was not captured gave Li Zixin a glimmer of hope.
Suddenly, a familiar figure walked past him, and Li Zixin felt as if he had seen this person somewhere before.
However, the person was wearing a mask, so his face was completely obscured. He was dressed in pirate clothing and quickly disappeared from Li Zixin's sight.
And that person was none other than Yu Changsheng, who had disguised himself and infiltrated the island.
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
After sensing that the ship had anchored, Yu Changsheng sneaked in, and then he and Lu Sandao each found a lone pirate and stripped him of his clothes.
After a simple disguise, they barged in.
The pirate island's defenses were practically nonexistent; they penetrated its defenses effortlessly.
Lu Sandao also slightly changed his appearance and said in a low voice to the person in front of him, "Boss Yu, we've finally managed to sneak in."
"What should we do now? This Hidden Mist Island of the Snake Fang Pirates is no good place."
Yu Changsheng didn't have a good plan at the moment. He came and went from this place without knowing anything, so how could he possibly come up with a solution?
"The current plan is to gather information and find out what's going on here first."
The two entered the island, where pirates were coming and going everywhere, but no one noticed anything unusual about them.
There are so many scoundrels among these pirates that Yu Changsheng and his companion are considered relatively normal.
Lu Sandao was extremely familiar with this environment, and even took the initiative to greet others, just like he was coming home.
at night.
This was also the time when the pirates were most excited, and the tavern was already packed with people.
Yu Changsheng and Lu Sandao found a place to rest and ordered some aged wine.
At that moment, a cacophony of voices caught their attention.
A tall, burly man with a shaved head suddenly barged in and yelled at the people drinking, "Everyone here, come with me!"
Many people, seeing the terrified look on the bald, burly man's face, immediately sobered up and followed him.
No one dared to refuse the bald man's request, and they all stood up.
Seeing this, Yu Changsheng and Lu Sandao exchanged a glance and followed.
The bald man led his men to the edge of the island and took them directly to a pirate ship.
They captured another portion of the previous prisoners and sent them all to the ship.
Yu Changsheng and the other man observed silently, somewhat unsure of what the bald man was trying to do by falling to the ground.
However, among the prisoners, Yu Changsheng spotted a familiar figure.
Li Zixin was among them, covered in wounds, having been tortured to this extent in less than a day.
Yu Changsheng sighed inwardly. This time, he had indeed dragged him into trouble. However, it was not appropriate for him to show himself and rescue him now. He planned to observe what the bald man was up to first.
Once everyone had arrived, the bald man roared, ordering his men to take their positions and set sail.
At this moment, Yu Changsheng also noticed a talisman in the bald man's hand.
When this talisman passes through the fog, the faint colored light it emits can dispel the surrounding fog and guide a path.
This made Yu Changsheng realize immediately that the talisman was the only way to get through the fog.
Shadows kept flashing by in the thick fog, but they all retreated when they encountered the light emitted by the talisman.
As the surrounding fog gradually thinned, Yu Changsheng was able to see the situation outside more clearly.
All around was still a vast ocean, but looking behind, there was nothing left to see, not even the mist floating on the sea.
If it weren't for the fact that a path could be clearly seen where the colorful light shone, Yu Changsheng would almost have thought that he had been suddenly teleported to this place.
"I never imagined the Snake Fang Pirates would resort to such methods? Truly astonishing."
"If I could obtain this method, wouldn't it put the Myriad Manifestations Sect in a completely safe place?"
Yu Changsheng immediately became interested in this secret technique and thought about how to get his hands on it.
By this time, it was already bright outside. The bald man led his men to continue driving in one direction. After half a day, they gradually came to see an island.
These small islands are numerous in this northern sea area, making them the best temporary meeting place for these pirates.
The bald man ordered his men to anchor the ship on the island and then drove all the captured people off the ship.
Not long after, dozens of people were tied up and left on the beach of the island.
The bald man stood still and waited. Yu Changsheng did not make any rash moves for the time being, and decided to observe the bald man's purpose first.
The bald man grew impatient and simply lay down on the beach and fell asleep.
Lu Sandao then leaned over and whispered in Yu Changsheng's ear, "Boss Yu, we don't know what these people are up to. Should we take this opportunity to take them out?"
Yu Changsheng was also hesitant; if he made a move now, it would indeed be a good opportunity.
But after waiting for so long, it would be a shame not to see what that bald guy is up to.
Just as he was pondering this, several dark figures suddenly appeared in the distance.
Several figures quickly approached, and the loud noise immediately startled the bald man awake.
"Xu Chen, it's been a long time."
The leader was dressed in flowing white robes, gently waving a feather fan in his hand, looking every bit the young master of a noble family.
The bald man immediately greeted him respectfully, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
Yu Changsheng saw this, but before he could make a move, the bald man pointed at Yu Changsheng and said, "You people over there, bring them all here."
The person behind Yu Changsheng immediately turned around and followed to grab the person.
All the captured crew members were transported to this location.
The white-clad man at the head of the group nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the person.
"Not bad, the people here are relatively healthy. The last people you sent here were all on the verge of death."
"Not long after they were sent back, a group of people died. Let's hope it doesn't happen this time."
The bald man chuckled, "Young Master Ling, don't worry, there won't be any problems this time." (End of Chapter)
