Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

On the rotten mudflat, under the command of Bu Changji, the pirates and Fang Yunyao finally managed to carve out a small area in a seemingly disorderly pile of rocks. They suspected that this might be the hidden entrance to the treasure house, and they had to wait for a detailed investigation in the future.

The sky grew increasingly gloomy, and the sea breeze howled, stirring up salty and wet waves.

Bu Changji was thinking about Jinchen. Calculating the time, he should have already gone ashore. If he found that Jinchen was not at home, he would probably become suspicious.

He was just about to order everyone to retreat when he looked up and his pupils suddenly shrank.

They saw a tall and familiar figure walking quickly towards them across the rugged reefs.

If it’s not Jinchen, then who else could it be!

Bu Changji's heart was filled with alarm. Without thinking, he raised his foot and kicked Hai Liu in the buttocks. He lowered his voice and ordered urgently, "Hide quickly! Hide well!"

The pirates also saw the man who was getting closer and closer with a stern aura. Combined with their boss's rare nervousness, they immediately guessed that the visitor was probably the fisherman with abnormal swimming skills and terrifying fighting power that Hai Shisan mentioned.

They were panicked at the moment and frantically looked for shelter. They hid behind huge reefs and dared not even breathe.

Bu Changji quickly straightened his muddy sleeves, took a deep breath, and when Jinchen approached, a surprised smile appeared on his face and he was about to speak.

At this moment, Fang Yunyao, who was hiding behind a rock not far from him, couldn't resist his curiosity and cautiously stuck out half of his head, wanting to take a peek at what the legendary "terrible fisherman" looked like.

But as soon as he stuck his head out, he caught a glimpse of a colorful sea snake slowly swimming out from the crevice of the rock, less than a foot away from his face.

"what!!!"

Fang Yunyao had been pampered since childhood and was most afraid of these slippery and cold long worms. He was so scared that he didn't dare to open his eyes. He drew out his short knife for self-defense and stabbed the sea snake with his eyes closed.

The knife was fast and accurate, nailing the sea snake to the sand.

The sea serpent is dead.

The surroundings were also quiet.

Fang Yunyao was gasping for breath in shock, and slowly opened his eyes, only to meet Bu Changji's murderous gaze.

And Jinchen, who had just walked closer with a calm expression and sharp eyes.

Fang Yunyao: “…”

His mind went blank and he froze in place.

Scared a little blurry.

Jinchen's eyes quickly swept across the sea snake on the ground that was killed by a knife, and then passed over Fang Yunyao's hand, which was disguised but still showed signs of being pampered.

And the exquisite dagger in his hand was not something that an ordinary refugee could have.

Combined with the subtle breathing sounds behind the surrounding reefs...

Jinchen was shocked to realize that there were at least ten people lurking nearby.

The man in front of him, who was ruthless and dressed in strange clothes, was most likely the leader of the pirates, the protagonist Bu Changji.

The aura around Jin Chen became cold and vigilant. He stared at Fang Yunyao with a sharp gaze, then looked at Bu Changji.

"Jiu Shi, come here."

Bu Changji was anxious and could only bite the bullet and walk towards Jinchen, trying to explain.

"Brother Jin, he is..."

"The pirate leader Bu Changji."

A refugee friend of mine.

Bu Changji was frightened and stopped talking before he could finish his words.

Bu Changji: “?”

The pirates behind the stone: "???"

Fang Yunyao: “???”

Fang Yunyao felt like crying, but he couldn't even cry. How could he look like a vicious pirate leader? Didn't he look like a nobleman in trouble?

He opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but was glared back at by Bu Changji with an extremely fierce look.

Fang Yunyao was frightened by that look and swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He could only bite the bullet and yell at Bu Changji and Jinchen in a timid manner.

"...H-hurry up and get out of here!"

Unfortunately, the voice was shaking so much that it had no deterrent effect at all.

Seeing this, Jinchen's eyes became even colder.

He scanned the surrounding reefs with sharp eyes, randomly selected the pirate who was hiding the worst, with half of the toe of his shoe showing, and moved.

The pirate only felt a flash before his eyes and a sharp pain in his wrist. He didn't see what happened at all, and the scimitar hidden behind him had already changed hands.

Jin Chen grabbed the knife and moved smoothly. He turned the tip of the knife, and the cold light pointed directly at Fang Yunyao's chest.

Fang Yunyao: “!!!”

He was so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground.

Bu Changji, who was standing behind Jinchen, watched the scene silently. His eyelids twitched, and he closed his mouth very tactfully, not daring to say a word.

Jinchen protected Bu Changji tightly behind him, his voice was cold and silent, with a sense of oppression.

"I don't care what you want to do. From now on, stay away from him. Don't provoke him again. Otherwise..."

He didn't finish his words, but the unfinished threat was obvious.

Fang Yunyao was so frightened by the cold tip of the knife and the murderous aura that his scalp went numb. He couldn't utter a word and could only nod desperately.

Bu Changji was full of doubts when he saw this, but the current scene was too weird and he couldn't let it continue to develop.

He reached out and gently pinched Jinchen's cuff. His strength was weak, and his voice was fragile with fear.

"Brother Jin... I think I twisted my foot and it hurts a little. Let's go back. They didn't do anything to me..."

When Jinchen heard that his wife's feet hurt, his attention was immediately diverted and he no longer cared about the pirate leader.

He threw the stolen scimitar to the ground, turned around, bent down, and carried Bu Changji on his back without saying a word.

No one dared to stop him.

"Hold tight."

Jinchen carried Bu Changji on his back and walked back the way he came, without even looking at Fang Yunyao behind him.

Bu Changji lay on Jinchen's back and took the opportunity to quietly turn around and quickly made several gestures to Fang Yunyao, who was still frozen in place, and those frightened pirates, urging them to retreat quickly.

It was not until Jinchen's back disappeared at the end of the reef that Fang Yunyao seemed to have lost all his strength and his legs went limp.

With a thud, he fell straight backwards.

He was so scared that he fainted.

The pirates: "..."

They looked at each other in horror.

Hai Shisan was right. This fisherman is so scary!

-

On the way back, the sea breeze became stronger and the dark clouds became lower.

Bu Changji lay on Jinchen's back, feeling the steady heartbeat and pace of the man beneath him. After hesitating for a moment, he softly asked, "Brother Jin...how do you know that pirate leader, Bu Changji?"

Jinchen carried him on his back, not stopping. He thought for a moment, then found a vague explanation, "I've heard something."

Bu Changji's eyes moved slightly, and his fingertips unconsciously stroked the exposed skin on the back of Jinchen's neck.

This is one of the most fragile lifelines of the human body, and this man was so defenselessly exposed in front of him.

His voice became softer and more dependent, as if he was afraid, or acting coquettishly.

"Brother Jin...don't lie to me."

Jinchen felt the cool and soft touch on the back of her neck, and when she heard his fragile words, her heart couldn't help but soften.

He sighed, "Because I came here for you."

"I want to protect you, so naturally I need to know who poses a threat to you, like pirates, and also...that Bu Changji."

Bu Changji was stunned when he heard this.

My first reaction was that Jinchen was indeed not an ordinary fisherman.

Then he thought, Jinchen knew the pirate leader Bu Changji, but mistook him for someone who needed protection...

Who did he think he was? Was he really just an ordinary refugee?

However, among the refugees who were rescued to the shore, none of them had any special status that was worth such a big fuss to protect.

Except... the one who was supposed to be on the marriage ship, but whose whereabouts are now unknown and is being searched for by the court and Prince Jing's palace...

Prince Jing's son, Fang Yunyao.

Bu Changji recalled that when the officers and soldiers were questioning him in the town before, Jinchen subconsciously protected him behind him and declared that he was her husband.

All the clues are connected at this moment.

Jinchen probably really mistook him for the prince who had run away from his marriage.
