0387: Have A Good Vent.
The sky is full of stars, and the Rhine River at night is extraordinarily quiet, only the sound of gurgling water can be heard.
Qiao Ji's fleet stopped on the river, and each boat dropped its anchor to stabilize the hull.
There are too many uncertain dangers when sailing at night, and the thick fog will also interfere with sight.
At this time, the smell of fish floated on the river.
Qiao Ji, Lei Nai and others are sitting around the restaurant in the cabin to have dinner, there are fish soup, braised fish and some dried vegetable pot stewed with sun-dried vegetables.
"My lord, will you really not get seasick after drinking it?" Lian Xin looked at the fish soup in front of her in doubt.
She lost her appetite after seasickness, even though the fish soup in front of her smelled delicious.
Xue Nai also wanted to feel sick, her fluffy cat ears drooped and she was very lethargic, muttering, "My lord, I'm afraid I can't eat it."
"Drink a little, trust me, you'll be fine tomorrow after drinking and sleeping." Qiao Ji said gently.
He can understand the feeling of seasickness, the whole person is in an uncomfortable state all the time, not to mention how boring he can't vomit.
"Okay." Lian Xin and Xue Nai nodded, and slowly sipped the fish soup.
Lei Nai was different, he had already drank a whole bowl of fish soup and half a piece of braised fish, and his appetite was even better than when he was not on the boat.
Satisfied, she wiped her mouth with a paper towel and said, "Eat more, and you will be able to live after eating."
It was the first time for the black cat girl to eat such delicious fish meat and fish soup, and she accidentally ate too much.
"It's really delicious." Xue Nai's dull eyes gradually became brighter, and her cat ears began to stand up.
She felt warm in her stomach, and she didn't feel like vomiting, so she drank several mouthfuls of fish soup.
"My lord, why doesn't this fish soup taste fishy?" Lian Xin asked in surprise.
She had drank fish soup before, but the taste was so fishy that she would spit it out at the first bite.
This is also the reason why Hu Er Niang didn't want to drink fish soup at first, because she was afraid of the strange taste aftertaste.
Unexpectedly, not only does it have no fishy smell after drinking it, but it has a strong umami taste, which completely subverts Lianxin's perception of fish.
"Because there are a lot of turmeric vines in it, the master said this is to remove the fishy smell." Luna said loudly.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head in embarrassment, and took a few sips of a bowl of fish soup to relieve her embarrassment.
"I said why the taste is so familiar." Lian Xin filled another bowl of fish soup and began to eat it.
"Drink more to warm your stomach, maybe you won't feel better until tomorrow." Qiao Ji rubbed the two who were drinking the soup.
Everyone sat around the table and ate dinner happily, and the knights of other ships also took turns to eat dinner.
There are knights standing guard on the boards and the left and right sides of each ship, and they cannot relax their vigilance even if they are parked on the river.
Qiao Ji and the others ate dinner for almost an hour, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
"Clatter..."
"Papa Papa"
The night was getting late, and the four boats just stopped on the Rhine River, surrounded by only the sound of the river flowing and the river beating the hull.
The 50-meter boat is at the front, and the other three 20-meter boats are on the left and right, and behind.
At this time, a group of people was entering the water on the shore about 100 meters away from Qiao Ji's fleet.
These people are a group of river pirates, there are more than 20 people in total, and the leader is Alston, who is one of the nearby river pirate groups.
"Be careful, everyone, if you are exposed, you will die here."
Before going into the water, Alston looked at his subordinates with sharp eyes, and lowered his voice to warn.
"Yes." A group of river pirates nodded repeatedly.
They have done it many times, and they already know what Wang Alston's eyes want to express.
"Clatter..."
The river pirates swam into the water and approached the big ship.
The night was solemn, and the knights standing guard on the four ships did not notice anyone on the river. After all, no one would have thought that someone would swim close to the fleet on a winter night, right?
"Clatter..."
The river pirates submerge half of their heads in the water. In order to better blend into the night, they also wrapped their heads with a black cloth to cover up the color of their hair.
Two or three minutes later, the river pirates approached the 50-meter boat where Qiao Ji was, and stopped towards the stern.
Alston took out a pair of gloves from his bag and put them on. The palms of the gloves were full of nails.
He stretched out his hands and nailed them to the hull with gloves full of nails. He also stepped on the hull with his feet and slowly climbed up. The soles of the shoes on his feet were also covered with nails.
The rest of the river pirates followed suit and began to climb onto the boat with gloves and shoes full of nails.
'Be careful with me. ’ Alston turned his head and glanced at his men, and used the light of the torches on the ship to warn those who were usually more reckless.
The river pirates saw the eyes of the boss clearly through the faint light of the fire, nodded one by one and continued to climb up.
Due to the hazy night and the sound of the river constantly beating the hull, the knights did not find any traces of the river pirates at all.
Alston looked up and saw the fence at the stern, thinking to himself, this ship looks so new, it should be the first sailing.
He only hopes that the things brought by this fleet are more valuable, or there are a few beautiful women. It has been a long time since he has vented his anger.
The rest of the river pirates also began to approach the fence at the stern, and they all made preparations to board the boat.
Alston just looked back at his men, then turned around and used nail gloves and shoes to climb up to the stern.
The other river pirates were already familiar with this set of procedures, and the entire river pirate group boarded the stern in a few strokes.
Tread Tread...
"clang clang clang"
Before Alston and the others could react, they heard bursts of hurried footsteps and the sound of armor colliding.
"Take them down." You Meng shouted sharply.
"Yes." The first team of the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion responded in unison.
They rushed towards Alston and the others with lightning speed, and pressed the river bandits on the board of the boat without any effort.
"..."
"Damn, found out."
"hateful."
"Run away."
Alston and the others resisted desperately, and those gloves with nails hit the armor without pain or itching, just making a series of harsh creaking sounds.
"How did you find out (Zhao Lihao..." Alston's face was full of shock and fear, and the rest of the river robbers were the same.
They originally thought that if they approached the fleet at night, no one would find out if they climbed up again. Who would have thought of being caught so simply.
"It's true that I didn't find you, but wouldn't it be the same as death if you climbed up by yourself?" You Meng looked at the river pirates with a cold face.
He really didn't expect that this group of river pirates would throw themselves into the trap. The knights on guard didn't doze off, and You Meng was the first to notice the abnormality.
Especially the moment the river pirates climbed up the stern fence, he noticed something was wrong.
A sharpshooter has very good eyesight.
So the knights began to hide, waiting for everyone to climb up and capture them in one fell swoop.
Since there were so many people who wanted to climb onto the boat, You Meng was a little surprised.
Fortunately, the knights are agile and have been specially trained in normal times, and they have countermeasures for this sudden situation.
(1 will, self-dispute.).
