Hutao uses me to judge my performance

Musashi put the polished sword into its sheath and began to describe what happened at that time.

"At that time, Kaiji Island was still guarded by the shogunate army, and the Coral Palace had not yet occupied Haji Island. I remember that it was raining that night, and we were resting in a hidden cave on the shore. I was watching the night and suddenly saw something coming from Kaiji Island. Ships coming from the direction of the island docked.

“We didn’t light a fire and we were in a hidden location, so we naturally didn’t attract their attention.

“I shook my companions awake to see if there was any chance of grabbing something valuable from the boat, but a group of soldiers with weapons got off the boat.

"Our pirates' eyesight is pretty good. Although they were wearing shogunate uniforms, they obviously didn't fit. Moreover, they came from the direction of Kaiji Island and sneaked onto the island.

"With all these abnormal signs, I was sure that they were Kaijijima people disguised as shogunate troops!"

The location they were at at that time was on the coast to the west of Haji Island, and Haiji Island was to the west. The ship sailed straight from Haiji Island.

If it were a shogunate ship, it would be impossible to make such a large circle and land on the island from the west where the waves are rough.

"Looking at their posture, we naturally did not act rashly and quietly followed this small group of people after they left. However, the rain was too heavy and their footsteps were fast, so we quickly lost track of them."

"We were worried that they were going for the town property and wanted to destroy it, so we planned to guard the town property to prevent it from being destroyed. But when we arrived, the group of people had already killed the person guarding the town property. soldiers and destroyed the town property!”

"We fought with them, but we didn't have many people, and two brothers were injured. This group of soldiers didn't want to fight at all. After we were injured, we left and went to the next town to destroy it. One night , all the town objects were destroyed by them!"

Speaking of this, Muto gritted his teeth.

There are not many defenders on Baling Island. After the defenders guarding the town property were killed by them, the outside world had no idea who destroyed the town property!

After that, Kaijijima Island quickly occupied Baji Island, and the defenders on the island had to withdraw.

"Didn't you tell anyone else about this?"

Jiang Bai was a little confused.

Logically speaking, since there are eyewitnesses, this matter should not be hidden. How come no one knows about it until now?

"Who will believe what we pirates say? We have no way to prove that he is really from Haiji Island. The village chief of Feimu Village knew it before, but he has gone crazy."

The credibility of pirates is extremely limited, and no one will believe their words.

Both parties claimed that the other party was responsible for the destruction of the town property, and their voices would not be heard at all.

"What about the group of people who destroyed the town property? If we find them, we should be able to use them as evidence!"

"Who knows! He may have died, or he may have returned to life. To be on the safe side, we won't get too close, lest they recognize him and silence him."

It is more likely that this group of people died. The ship that brought them here did not wait for their return and went back directly.

This kind of dirty work is usually done by dead soldiers.

It is difficult for Jiang Bai to comment on the behavior on Haiji Island.

From the side of Kaiji Island, it is naturally correct to act in such a way that it can destroy the morale of the shogunate army in one fell swoop and put oneself in a favorable position.

However, from the perspective of the residents of Baying Island, this is a completely unforeseen disaster.

Ordinary people who were involved in the war did not even know how they died.

"This is war."

Unscrupulous, bloody and cruel.

Chapter 455 Why fight?

Changji squatted on the deck with his knees in his arms. He looked at his toes blankly, "Why is there a war?"

If there had been no war, Baying Island would be fine, the village would be fine, and everyone would be fine too.

But because of the war, the village is now empty.

Neither Jiang Bai nor Wu Teng spoke.

Why is there a war?How to end this war?

Perhaps only gods can answer this question for them.

Because of the destruction of town property, Changji had some resistance and disgust towards Kaiji Island, but if he wanted to find his mother, then Kaiji Island was the place he had to go.

Muto sent Ebai and Choji to a position about three or four nautical miles away from Kaiji Island. From this position, the defenders patrolling on the coast could be vaguely seen, but they were not too close.

Jiang Bai and Changci changed to the boat and started rowing manually.

As we get closer to Haiji Island, the scene of Haiji Island becomes clearer.

Compared to Haji Island, where dark clouds prevent the sun from reaching the sky, Kaiji Island, where the sun shines brightly and exudes a dreamy atmosphere, is simply a paradise on earth.

Changci's heart was indescribably complicated.

The war between these two parties caused a terrible situation in Ba Ling Island. The people in the village were almost wiped out, but Hai Zhi Island was still fine, as if it was not affected at all.

"Although it was a town destroyed by people from Haiji Island, we have no evidence, and they don't admit it. When you get to the island, don't speak if you don't want to, and don't show your disgust and hatred for Haiji Island. hatred"

Jiang Bai gave a long instruction.

Although this child is smart, he still needs to be reminded.

"Well, I know, I won't act out of emotion." Changci nodded, he could distinguish the importance.

The two rowed toward the shore. Jiang Bai quietly used the wind element to speed up. He did not intend to reveal that he could use two elements yet, so as not to attract unnecessary attention.

The boat quickly docked, and their Haizhi Island defenders, who had long been seen, were waiting with spears in hand.

"Stop the ship!" The defender pointed his spear at them, "Where are you from, and what are you doing in Haiji Island?"

Of course, Jiang Bai couldn't directly explain his purpose. He let go of the oar and signaled that he was not in danger.

"We can no longer live on Bayeng Island, so we came to Kaiji Island. This is my brother Changji."

"So you're here to join us, welcome!" Upon hearing this, several patrol soldiers put away their spears, and their expressions suddenly became friendly.

They took in many people who fled to Kaiji Island because of the Eye Hunting Order, and a considerable part of Kaiji Island's resistance force were these people.

Jiang Bai brought a child with him, so it was obviously impossible for him to be an undercover agent sent by the shogunate.

Because of the war, Haiji Island is now severely understaffed. They are so welcoming to people who bring their families to Haiji Island!

"This is Dajing, I'll take you to the temporary camp."

A young-looking soldier stood up. He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he had already become a soldier.

He performed a simple sergeant's courtesy and said to the two people who got off the boat: "Hello, welcome to Haiji Island, please follow me."

Jiang Bai could tell that this young man had obviously entered the army not long ago. Although he was holding a spear in his hand, it was more like holding a fire stick.

He followed the young man named Oi forward, and Choji followed step by step.

"This is my first time coming to Haiji Island. It's much better here than Ba ​​Ling Island!" Jiang Bai said as if he was sighing as he walked.

"It never stops raining on the island, and there are thunderstorms from time to time. After the evil spirits are rampant, the island becomes more and more depressed. Now there is no one in Feimu Village."

"It's all because of those bastards of the shogunate army who can even do things like destroy town property!" Oi cursed, with undisguised disgust and contempt on his face.

Seeing his gesture, Changji wanted to say something, but in the end he held back, closing his mouth and remaining silent.

Jiang Bai could see that this young man really believed that the town object was destroyed by the shogunate army.

After all, everyone knows that it is impossible to do such dirty work as destroying town objects. Only a few people know about it, and the vast majority of people, like the uninformed patrol soldier, do not know the truth.

Jiang Bai didn't mean to point it out. He had just arrived in someone else's territory and didn't understand anything yet. It was best not to do such desperate things as inciting hatred.

Jiang Bai then scolded the shogunate a few times, and then turned to ask about Oijing.

"Is the current war situation so tense? I think you are still young. Why did you join the army?"

"The current war situation is not bad. I am still a patrol officer on the island. Mr. Coral Palace won't let us go to the front line."

There was no lack of yearning for the front line in Ojing's words. Young people are eager to fight on the battlefield and make contributions when their blood is high.

"It's a good thing not to go to the front line. The front line is too dangerous. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your life."

"Everyone knows the danger, but we can't stay in the rear just because of the danger. Once I pass the test, I will go to the front line!"

Listening to the two chatting, Changci finally couldn't hold back and asked his own question.

"Why are we fighting? If we didn't fight, there would be no danger, and the village wouldn't be like that."

Ooi glanced at the confused and sad Choji, and said matter-of-factly: "Of course it's because of the Eye Hunting Order! We need to correct General Raiden's wrong decision and let him lift the Eye Hunting Order!"

Hearing this, Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a puzzled tone: "But, there are not many people with the Eye of God, and the Eye Hunting Order should not affect your normal life, right?"

In order to lift the Eye Hunting Order, it is just a high-sounding excuse for this war. Just like the ancient rebellion wanted to use the banner of "Qingjun Side", Kaijijima's appeal is definitely not the Eye Hunting Order.

"This" Ojing scratched his head. He was uncultured and couldn't explain why.

"That's what everyone said, and since General Raiden killed Orochi, I've long been unhappy with them."

Jiang Bai twitched the corner of his mouth for this young man who didn't have any intentions and always spoke the truth.

As a soldier among them, he didn't even know what the real meaning of war was. He was just making noise about the war because of some inconsequential disputes of temper. He really didn't know what to say.

Even Changji felt that such a reason was too far-fetched and ridiculous, and he even felt a lot of disgust towards this young soldier who was keen on fighting.

He lowered his head, biting his lips and not showing these emotions.

It would be ridiculous if the village was tormented by evil spirits just because of this eye-hunting order, which was insignificant to them ordinary people.

Ooi didn't notice Changji's strange mood. He looked at the camp in front of him and said, "Okay, the camp is here. You can rest inside first."

Chapter 456 I seem to have been scolded

Ahead was a small camp built with tents. It was not big and was guarded by only two or three soldiers.It looked like it was temporarily reserved for outsiders like them.

Judging from the distance they just walked, this is still the outskirts of the island.

"Thank you."

Under the leadership of Ojing, the two walked into the camp.

"Brother Yongshu, these two people just came from Yaoji Island to join us on Haiji Island."

The soldier named Yongshu looked around Jiang Bai and Changci twice, "I understand, you go back first."

"Please do a simple registration, please."

Yongshu came to a table, took out a form with many names written on it, picked up a pen, and asked questions while filling it out.

"Name."

"My name is Jiang Bai, and this is Changci."

"age."

"20, 10 years old."

"Come from Feimu Village?"

"Ah."

"Do you have the eye of God?"

"Have"

Jiang Bai does not intend to expose the fact that he came from Liyue. According to time calculation, the next time Death Star will arrive at Haiji Island will be at least two months later.

He has enough time to see, listen, and investigate what he wants to investigate.

But before that, there was no rush to find the leader of the Coral Palace.

"It seems that we have another general in Haiji Island!" Yongshu was very happy.

The holders of the Eye of God have high-end combat power. Thanks to them, Kaijijima Island did not suffer much losses in the war.

And because of the eye hunting order of the shogunate, they don't have to worry about the holders of these God's Eyes rebelling.

It doesn't matter even if the holders of these God's Eyes don't want to participate in the battle, it's good to sit at the rear.

Jiang Bai smiled and said nothing.

He strictly followed the teachings of the hall master and did not intend to participate in the war between the two parties.

If you want to do something, let the big hero fly and he will cheer him up from behind.

Yongshu took out some baked pancakes and salted fish, "This is your food for the past three days. Eat it first. If you don't have enough, tell me."

After looking at the simple cakes and fish, Jiang Bai raised his eyebrows.

This is not like the treatment given to the holders of the Eye of God. Even if they have just arrived, it is unreasonable to be so shabby.
