Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 277: Return to Niao Island
Three days later the construction of the fort resumed, the barrier layer on the beach was activated again. Zhang Yu and the Niao Tribe were already on board preparing to start the journey.
Xuan Yin, Zhang Chao and a few others watched from the shoreline, the little boy waved at the father as if to say, "Father must return safely."
Zhang Yu replied with a wave of his hand. "Dad must have come back" he said softly.
"Sister Yu, the ship is ready. Can we leave already?" Shin told me from the ship's control.
Zhang Yu who heard it immediately raised his right hand as a sign of approval.
Shin immediately shouted. "Pull anchor. Let's sail to go home!"
The people of the Niao Tribe cheered with excitement. The ship also left. However, this will be a long trip because of the long distance.
"Sister Yu, you just rest in the room. Leave all this to us" said Shin.
Zhang Yu thought for a moment before nodding his head. "If there's anything, don't hesitate to come looking for me."
"Well," replied Shin.
Zhang Yu decided to stay in the room. He laid down his body, while the ship was fully controlled by the people of the Niao Tribe.
With the learning that has been given these few days in reading the map, they should be on the right track
Dak!
Zhang Yu's arm involuntarily nudged against the wall of the room. He sat back down, his eyes staring at the wall of the room which produced a heavy sound like there was space behind it.
Dak dak!
Hem...
"It looks like there's something behind these walls." Zhang Yu rose from his position. He shifted the bed that was originally attached to the wall of the room, then found a kind of secret door hidden there with a width of one meter and a height of only half.
"It's likely that this room is the squad leader's room you killed" Long Shen said.
Zhang Yu circulated his glance, then found dozens of wine jugs and some other quite luxurious items on one of the shelves.
"Maybe you're right" he said.
Without further ado Zhang Yu opened the secret door. As it turned out, what was inside were precious treasures like gold coins as well as some items that were also made of gold.
"It's just right when in the storage ring they don't have a lot of content. Everything is stored here."
Earlier while conducting the inspections on the three ships, Zhang Yu thought that there were indeed no valuables they had brought. Who would have thought it turned out that there was a secret room to keep it.
...
Time pass. It didn't feel like they were traveling for two and a half months. The destination island was starting to appear in plain sight, it only took a while longer until they actually set foot there.
However, the existence of large ships with the emblem of the demon tower really made them have to decide to stop the ship within two hundred meters of the shoreline.
"Yes, call Brother Yu!"
Yi had just turned around until his footsteps stopped looking at Zhang Yu who was already right behind him.
"Sister Yu, do we need to turn around and enter from another direction?"
Zhang Yu was still silent as he observed the three ships belonging to the demon tower.
"Look! There are people." Yi exclaimed as he pointed to where the three people who had emerged from behind the ship were riding on a small sampan.
At that time the position of the ship was slightly blocked by the rock when viewed from the position of the demon tower ship. Therefore, they may not be aware of the presence of ships approaching the island.
"We wait here and see what they do."
With that decision they waited there for quite some time. However, since the appearance of three people who climbed the canoe, there were no more demon tower people visible.
"Zhang Yu, why don't you go straight to the island? ...." Long Shen had not even finished his speech until it was seen in the distance that the three people had previously come back to ride the sampan.
But not just three, but with one person who has a larger body and a slightly scaly green skin.
"What are they going to do with Gui?"
"He will be taken as a prisoner to Dragon Island."
Whahuh?
Everyone immediately looked at Zhang Yu after hearing his sentence.
"So Gui will be taken by them? Then, will he be treated like a slave worker?"
"More or less like that."
Shin's hand was immediately clenched thinking Gui would be a prisoner. However, there should still be other tribe members besides Gui who were already on board.
"Sister Yu, I need your help to free Gui and the tribe members who are already on board." Shin immediately pulled out his sword. Yi and the twenty-five Niao Tribe also took out swords preparing to fight.
"I'll help you guys. But we won't fight directly."
"What?" The people of the Niao Tribe narrowed their eyes. They did not understand with the intention of fighting indirectly. In their minds, wouldn't they be able to save the tribe members if not defeat the demon tower people who were on the ship?
Shin and Yi who had been listening to Zhang Yu's words began to understand him. They immediately gave orders to dozens of others to prepare the king bird, the name of the bird that became the mount of the Niao Tribe.
Zhang Yu boarded with Shin, they flew towards one of the ships in turn so as not to attract too much attention.
At that moment, the three people who had previously brought Gui arrived beside the ship. They hook the towing rope to the end of the canoe and pull it up together.
"Why should we have to go back and forth just to move this green-skinned lowly creature onto the ship. We're not gonna profit by doing it."
"You know how else, Phan Gu was very close to Senior An Xing. Even if senior An Xing is not here, the other members are more following his words."
The three members of the demon tower were too busy complaining to the point of not realizing that someone had been waiting for their arrival.
As they began to look forward preparing to step onto the ship, the look on his face froze immediately.
"Who are you?" ask them, compact.
Zhang Yu paid no heed to the questions of the three demon tower members. He immediately pulled Gui's hand to save her, then cut off the steel rope so that the canoe immediately fell into the sea in a height of five meters.
Byurs!
Two out of three people managed to jump in time, but one person fell down with the canoe he was riding.
"Bad! Are you an intruder?! We're gonna kill you!" Only then did the two of them finish their words, the two swords pierced through their bodies from behind.
Jem!
Jem!
Shin and Yi did their part perfectly. They attacked at the right time so that the two enemies could not dodge and had to die.
"Prince," murmured Gui.
Shin only gave a brief smile, he walked to the edge of the ship looking for the one person who had fallen earlier to confirm his condition.
However, Shin could not find him. Whether it was at the sea or the beach, he seemed to just disappear.
"Low-creature. Die you!"
Suddenly the person who had fallen earlier swung from the side using a rope. He slashed his sword intending to cut off Shin's head.
Shin who did not think that the man had previously held on to the rope was unable to dodge in such a close distance.
"Buck!" thought.
But who would have thought, just before the sword touched Shin's neck, Zhang Yu came with his fist to throw the man to the mast of the ship.
Blam it!
Shin blinked to dispel his shock. "Again Brother Yu saved my life," she said.
