Chapter 1136 Island Dwellers


Chapter 1136 Island Dwellers

After swimming for half an hour, Liu Jun also discovered this serious problem, that is, according to the estimated distance, he should see the island by now, but now there is not even a shadow. No, when I looked up, there was only the endless ocean.

There is no doubt that he swam backwards, but his sense of direction was a bit poor and he didn’t know how to swim again.

At this time, a fishing boat appeared in Liu Jun's field of vision. When Liu Jun saw the fishing boat, the people on the fishing boat also discovered him.

"Grandpa, grandpa, look, is that a big shark?" a little boy said in a sweet voice.

An old man on the fishing boat looked intently. Because he was old, he couldn't see very far, but he could still see the yellow swimming ring.

“It seems to be a person,” the old man said with some uncertainty.

A middle-aged man with a strong build looked at him and said, "He's just a human being, but we still don't want to save him. It's better to do more than to do less. If we are tricked, even compensating our fishing boat won't be enough."< br>
“But Dad, didn’t you say we should help each other?” the little boy said innocently.

The middle-aged man was a little hesitant. Although he didn't want to save him, he didn't want to lose his image in front of the child.

"Zhuzi, go and have a look." The old man gently touched the little boy's head with a loving look on his face.

“Okay, Dad.” The middle-aged man, who was called Zhuzi, heard what his father had said and had no choice but to do it.

Liu Jun looked at it and thought, Oh my God, savior, he is not afraid of drowning himself. With his current strength, floating in the sea for a year will not be a big problem. The main thing is that it will delay things.

Now that someone is coming to rescue him, it is also a good thing to ask for directions.

The fishing boat was much smaller than the cargo ship. The boss of the boat, Zhu Zhu, called two helpers and stretched out his hand to pull Liu Jun onto the boat.

Liu Jun grinned and was about to say thank you when Zhu Zhu held a crossbow and pressed it against Liu Jun's temple.

"Who are you? Why do you appear here? What is the purpose of coming here?" Zhuzi looked wary.

On this boat, even a few other people who helped were his blood relatives, and he had to be responsible for the safety of others.

"Brother, no, this thing is really scary," Liu Jun said calmly.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhu became more vigilant, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and the hand holding the crossbow trigger tightened slightly, as if he was about to use a crossbow arrow to pierce Liu Jun's head in the next second.

To be honest, let alone a crossbow, even if a Gatling was pressed against Liu Jun's head, he wouldn't panic.

But it was his calmness that made Zhuzi more vigilant.

A person is floating on the sea, let’s not say how long he has been floating. His body is not weak, his face is not white, and his body is not bloated. He is facing a crossbow against his temples, without the slightest panic, no matter how he looks at it, unreasonable.

"Little brother, where are you from? Why are you here?" The old man came over, gently pushed his son's hand away, and moved the crossbow against Liu Jun's head.

What he said was also an authentic Northeastern accent, and he seemed to be testing where Liu Jun was from.

"Uncle, I'm from Northeastern China. Your Northeastern accent is quite authentic, but I'm not from Northeastern China," Liu Jun said with a smile.

A tall and thin man next to me said, "We are half fellow countrymen."

"No, no, in terms of nationality, we are full-fledged fellow countrymen and compatriots, not half" Liu Jun corrected.

The tall and thin man scratched his head, "Yes, you are right, do you drink water?"

As he said that, he handed Liu Jun a bottle of mineral water.

Liu Jun glanced at it and said, "Hey, you can still drink the mineral water of Wahaha. It's not easy."

After saying that, he opened the bottle cap and took a big gulp.

Zhuzi and the others looked at each other, they all breathed a sigh of relief and let down their vigilance. They were really scared of being harassed by pirates and bandits from Country R during this period, otherwise they wouldn't be so worried about it. Liu Jun is like this.

Now that Liu Jun is fluent in Chinese and knows the domestic mineral water, he is not so afraid.

"What's the matter? I see you all look wary." Liu Jun asked curiously.

The tall and thin man was talkative and sat down next to Liu Jun. "Brother, have you ever heard of Japanese pirates?" Liu Jun's eyes widened. "There are still Japanese pirates now?"

"Yes. Especially those of us who live on the island, although we are protected by our own warships, we cannot stay here all the time, so it is easy for the Japanese pirates to take advantage of the loopholes and come to cause trouble. Although it is not life-threatening, it is common to steal things. "The tall and thin man sighed.

Island dweller Liu Jun knows that a long time ago, many people, in order to escape from the world or for other reasons, wandered on the sea and took root on small islands, extending their lives and experiencing waves. As he ages, he becomes an island dweller.

In this era of advanced technology, many islands still retain their traditional way of life, just like life in ancient times, without even electricity.

"Is there no guard force on the island?" Liu Jun asked.

"Yes, but those Japanese pirates are very good at fighting. They are not like ordinary robbers and bandits at all. They are very powerful and we can't fight them," said the tall and thin man.

“I can fight very well, then I understand.” Liu Jun showed an expression of sudden realization.

For this group of Japanese pirates, robbing property is probably secondary. They may have a bigger plot.

In today's society, where there is land, there are resources. If these island residents are forced to move away from the island, then the resources of these islands can be plundered in a back-and-forth wrangling.

Everyone chatted for a while, and then everyone went about their business. Saving people was just on the way, they still had to fish and live.

Everyone was busy, except for the little boy who was watching Liu Jun with a curious expression.

"Brother, are you a knight in ancient times? Only when you are in despair will you be rescued by us," the little boy asked in a childish tone.

Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, "Why do you ask?"

"Because the martial arts novels my sister brought me back from outside contain stories about heroes who are in trouble and will be saved by others." The little boy continued.

"Haha, brother is not only a hero, but he is also a Taoist priest. He can fly with a sword, catch ghosts and subjugate demons." Liu Jun smiled and touched the little boy's head.

"Hey, big brother is bragging. If you can fly, how could you fall into the sea?" The little boy didn't believe it for a moment.

Others also laughed, thinking that Liu Jun was teasing the children.

"If you don't believe it, then my brother will give you a magic weapon to prove that it can save your life at a critical moment." Liu Jun said, taking out a yellow talisman from the Good and Evil Order.

This yellow talisman is not a rare item. It will still be a little unstoppable in the face of stronger attacks, but it can ward off evil spirits and make some little ghosts afraid to fight.

"Thank you, brother." Although the little boy still didn't believe it, he took the yellow talisman from Liu Jun's hand out of politeness.

No one else had any reaction when they saw this scene. Only the old man, Zhuzi's father, saw this scene, his pupils shrank, his eyes were complicated, but he didn't say anything.

In the following period, Liu Jun has integrated into the group.

The fishing boat of Zhuzi is a medium-sized fishing boat, not too big or too small. It usually goes to sea for five days. When they rescued Liu Jun, it was not long after they went to sea.

They need to catch enough anchovies, mackerel, gobies, swimming crabs and the like in these five days, send them to other places for trade, and then exchange them for enough living supplies before returning to the island.

Within a few days, Liu Jun knew that the boat boss was called Zhuzhu and the little boy was called Xiao Jiuzhou. Liu Jun didn't even ask what the old man's name was, so he just kept calling him uncle.

During this period of time, Liu Jun was eating, drinking, sleeping and sleeping on the boat, and Liu Jun became much closer to these people.

Although when they first rescued Liu Jun on the boat, they all looked fierce and unkind, but now they are very kind to Liu Jun. Sometimes they are afraid that Liu Jun will not be used to eating sea fish, so they will give him more vegetables. Something like that.

They don’t have the conditions of an ocean-going cargo ship, and vegetables are extremely precious. Liu Jun was so moved that he gave each of them a yellow talisman.

Although no one took it seriously, they all put it away and did not say that they would not give face.

Liu Jun, who had been eating, sleeping, fishing, and playing in the demon world for a long time, felt the beauty of ordinary life for the first time.

"Master Liu, come over for dinner" the tall and thin man greeted Liu Jun.

Because Liu Jun often said how powerful he was in front of Xiao Jiuzhou these days, everyone gave him a nickname, Liu Daxia.

There’s no harm in it, it’s just a joke.
