After a few twists and turns, the two of them arrived at another island. This island was much smaller than the previous one, but judging from the smoke rising from the island, there should be a lot of people living on this island. In addition, there was a place to park ships on the periphery of the island, so it should be a very good place to stay.
When their ship neared the island, it was quickly surrounded by four or five people, just like what they encountered before. However, the difference in appearance between these four or five people was quite big. The shortest one had a mustache, so he looked like a standard Japanese, while the tallest black man was almost as tall as an American professional basketball player.
The one who looked slightly more normal was probably a yellow-skinned, black-haired man. Of course, he was obviously not Chinese. He had a standard Korean face, which of course meant that he had a big face before he had plastic surgery.
"May I ask if we can stay on the island?" Xu Yun was much smarter this time. If there was a rule that outsiders were not allowed to stay on the island, he didn't need to waste time and didn't need to take out the Mahogany Order to make things difficult for them. After all, many rules and customs were extraordinary.
For example, if Xu Yun and Lin Ge went to the island during the day, and the people on the island knew that he had the Mahogany Order, they would definitely put down their work and hold a banquet for the two of them. However, once the sun went down, they would still send Xu Yun and Lin Ge away.
No matter who it was, they couldn't break their rules. This was because that was the ancestral rule left behind by the ancestors of the island. Back then, the ancestors of these people had stayed on the island because of a man who claimed to be from the distant East. This Japanese man attracted his accomplices in the middle of the night and killed almost half of the compatriots on the island.
That Japanese man looked gentle and refined, but when he did things, he was very cruel and merciless.
The purpose of these Japanese people was the nonexistent gold mine on the island. The Japanese people had been doing whatever they wanted on the island for half a year, and the people on the island had also dug for them for half a year, but they hadn't seen anything. Not to mention a gold mine, they hadn't even seen a coal mine.
Therefore, these Japanese people reluctantly left the island. Although these Japanese people left the island, they left the people on the island with unforgettable pain. Therefore, the ancestors left behind a rule, which was that outsiders were never allowed to spend the night on the island.
Even those who could be considered friends were not allowed to stay overnight on the island because of the unique natural conditions of the island. As long as there was no one on the island to receive them, outsiders would not be able to enter. Therefore, it became the rule of the island to not let anyone who was not a resident of the island stay overnight.
Unless it was a daughter-in-law who had married into the island or a son-in-law who had married into the island, no one could stay overnight.
Although there weren't many islands with such rules, it wasn't rare in the Pacific Ocean. Back then, Japan, which was still called Japan, had done many bad things in this great ocean. There were too many shadows left behind.
Fortunately, the island Xu Yun chose this time didn't seem to have so many rules. Hearing his words, he immediately nodded. "Of course, we welcome guests from afar."
The person who spoke was the most normal one among them in terms of height, body shape, and skin color. Xu Yun could easily tell what he was talking about from his accent.
"You're Chinese, right …" Xu Yun smiled.
"Chinese." The other party was obviously surprised. He didn't expect Xu Yun to speak Chinese. This shocked him. Of course, his answer also denied his nationality. He was just Chinese.
Lin Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he finally met one of his own people. "When fellow countrymen meet fellow countrymen, both eyes are filled with tears. I didn't expect to meet fellow countrymen in this vast Pacific Ocean. Chinese is good, Chinese is good! We can finally have a place to stay. "
"Hehehe … Yeah, I didn't expect you to be Chinese." The Chinese man was still in shock. "Then, you come with me. I will help you arrange it."
"That's great. I can't ask for more." Lin Ge nodded again and again.
Xu Yun also expressed his gratitude. "Thank you for your trouble."
Everything went so smoothly that Lin Ge couldn't believe it. Under the guidance of the Chinese man, they soon came to a house with everything. The Chinese man told them that this was one of his residences and asked them to rest assured.
Soon, the Chinese man also brought them drinks and food. He asked them to eat and drink as much as they wanted. They couldn't go home until they were drunk.
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Yun and Lin Ge felt sleepy. The Chinese man got up and left to let them rest.
After the Chinese man left, Lin Ge suddenly sat up with his eyes wide open and looked at Xu Yun. "Brother … What do you think this person means? There's obviously something wrong with this wine. He put something in it … "
Seeing that Xu Yun did not respond, Lin Ge was stunned. "Brother, don't tell me you really fell for the trick after drinking this wine. The taste of the ecstasy in this wine is too obvious."
"Hu …" Xu Yun sat up. "They just left and you're already yelling. Aren't you afraid of being heard? Even if I drank it, this little bit of drug wouldn't make me fall asleep like a dead pig. "
Lin Ge smiled. "Brother, what do you think this means? It's really hard to know what's in a person's heart. They already know we're Chinese and they still want to trick us? Don't tell me they want to kill us and rob us at night. Should we scare him, or should we do something else? "
Xu Yun said lightly, "Do you think it's this Chinese man's idea?"
"Could it be that all of them came up with this idea?" Lin Ge asked. "Are they interested in our boat?"
"Why haven't you figured it out yet? Let me ask you, did you notice that we weren't stopped when we came here?" Xu Yun said, "Compared to the first time we came to the island, isn't it much easier?"
"Yeah." Lin Ge nodded. But isn't this because there are people from the same hometown? And it's a black-hearted fellow.
"If this sea is as dangerous as Crocodile said, do you think an island will let outsiders enter so easily?" Xu Yun said, "They didn't even look at the Mahogany Order that Crocodile gave me and let us come."
"That's because they want to trick us." Lin Ge said.
Xu Yun asked, "Then why don't they think we're pirates and guard against us?"
"This …" Lin Ge was startled and suddenly realized. "Unless they are pirates themselves?"
"That's right." Xu Yun said, "Unless they're pirates themselves, that's why they're not worried that we're pirates. That's why they let us come ashore so easily. We're just fat meat sent to their mouths. It's a waste not to trick them. "
Lin Ge took a deep breath. Aiya, holy sh * t. Who would have thought that he would end up in a pirate's lair after all the precautions he had put up so much.
"Brother, you mean, this island is a pirate's lair?" Lin Ge smiled bitterly. "The two of us really have good taste. We really know how to pick a place."
Xu Yun shook his head helplessly. "Sometimes it's like this. The more you don't want to run into trouble, the easier it is to run into trouble. Since we're here, there's no reason for them to refuse. They've already entertained us with good wine and food. They're probably waiting to kill us. "
"Should we run or fight with them?" Lin Ge said.
"I'm afraid our ship is already under their control. It's definitely impossible to sneak away. We can only force our way in. " Xu Yun: "Let's wait and rest for a while. When it's about time, they will naturally come to us. We're not in a hurry."
Lin Ge laughed and said, "Alright, Brother, we'll do as you say. I'm going to lie down and take a nap. I'm a little tired."
"Rest for a while." Xu Yun also found a comfortable position on the bed and lay down. The other party thought that they had caught a turtle in a jar, but in fact, it was Xu Yun who was waiting for them.
