749 Believed
“Father, I have let you down. He didn’t take good care of his mother, sister, or uncle. I’m sorry…”
An Lie’s heart ached so much that he suffocated. His chest gradually filled with hatred.
“Hey, damn dog, wake up.”
Pain came from her body, accompanied by malicious words.!!
An Lie opened his eyes and saw that many people were already surrounding him.
The torches were lit, illuminating the night.
An Lie immediately smiled obsequiously. He endured the pain and humiliation in his body and got up to kneel on the ground in a sorry state.
“I heard you have a way to get the big Kun?”
The leader of the crew was surnamed Huang. Everyone called him Boss Huang. Boss Huang was bald and had a fierce expression. It was said that before he went out to sea, he was a bandit in the mountains and had killed many people.
Every time they went out to sea, all the crew had to listen to him.
He had extraordinary vicious ways and a ruthless heart.
An Lie was about to speak when Boss Huang walked up to him in two steps and pinched An Lie’s chin fiercely. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “An Lie, if you lie, your sister will be raped by all of us. Do you understand?”
An Lie’s pupils constricted and his entire body trembled.
Boss Huang let go of him fiercely and laughed wildly. He laughed and said, “Look at how excited you are. I was just teasing you. Your sister is so skinny her chest sticks to her back. Even I find it boring.”
“But if you dare to trick me, I’ll definitely make you wish you were dead.”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Boss Huang’s eyes.
An Lie took a few breaths and said, “Boss Huang, I don’t dare to trick you. I just want to beg you to let our family go freely after this is done.”
“We want to live. To live like normal people.”
An Lie lowered his eyes and lowered his voice.
“Hahahaha, we’ll have to see if what you said is so valuable.”
Boss Huang laughed and said that no matter how unyielding a person was, their bones would be broken. No matter how proud they were, they would still wag their tails like dogs and beg for mercy.
“Tell me. If you’re going to say that the big Kun hates human voices and we have to keep quiet or something that everyone knows, I’ll slap you to death.”
Boss Huang narrowed his eyes.
No one cared about An Lie’s life or death, but since Young Master wanted him to live, he had to think of a way to keep him alive. However, he did not care how he lived.
An Lie and An Cheng did know a lot about seafaring, but they were very stubborn. Unless they beat them up ruthlessly, they wouldn’t be able to get anything out of them. Now that he said that there was a way to capture the big Kun, it was difficult not to believe him, but it was also difficult not to be suspicious.
An Lie raised his eyes and looked straight into Boss Huang’s eyes. “Boss Huang, the big Kun likes peace and quiet. Everyone knows that it will attack the ship if it encounters noise, but that’s not the case. The big Kun actually likes to eat people, and if people don’t make a sound, the big Kun won’t know that there’s someone on the ship.”
“Only when people make a sound will the big Kun know that there’s someone on the ship, so it will attack the ship. You can use our family as bait and use a large amount of knockout powder to knock the big Kun out and kill it.”
An Lie’s eyes were calm. He did not avoid her gaze.
Boss Huang narrowed his eyes and looked at An Lie. “Aren’t you afraid of death if we use you as bait?”
When An Lie said that, Boss Huang had no choice but to doubt his intentions.
An Lie smiled obsequiously and said, “Of course I’m afraid. But if we don’t do this, how can we prove our value and obtain freedom? I even want to beg you to let my uncle stay on the ship. He’s not in good health, so she shouldn’t follow us to feed the fish. If it really succeeds, it’s good to let him have his freedom. If we’re lucky enough to survive, Young Master, please return our freedom.”
An Lie was very magnanimous. No one was unafraid of death, and he was no exception.
Everything they did had to have a purpose, and their purpose was valid.
There were needs, goals, and results.
Boss Huang’s scrutinizing gaze landed on An Lie. An Lie did not panic or dodge. Boss Huang hesitated. After a while, he said, “Tsk, how much knockout powder does such a big Kun need? What if there’s not enough? If it goes crazy, won’t we all die?”
Boss Huang’s eyes darkened and he immediately kicked An Lie’s chest.
An Lie fell to the ground and let out uncontrollable cries of pain.
He panted with difficulty. With every breath he took, there was extreme pain in his chest. He was like a maggot wrapped in salt, twisting his body in extreme pain.
After a while, An Lie calmed down. He thought that it was lucky that he was the one who came.
If it was his uncle, his body would definitely not be able to take it. Perhaps Boss Huang would have kicked him to death.
An Lie spat out a mouthful of blood. There seemed to be some internal organ fragments inside.
An Lie said breathlessly, “Boss Huang, wealth comes in intermediate danger. Apart from knockout powder, there are so many people. Each of them can stab through the big Kun with a two-headed stick. A few people who go out to sea die every year…”
After saying this, An Lie did not have any guilty reaction. He looked straight at Boss Huang.
Looking at the darkness in Boss Huang’s eyes, An Lie knew that the plan was most likely successful. Who could tell if it was real or fake?
Facing these people, blind lies would not work.
However, whether it was true or false, instigating their greed would definitely succeed.
At the very least, Boss Huang would think that since An Lie and his family were the bait, they would be the first to die anyway.
Who didn’t want to live? An Lie still wanted to obtain freedom. After all, in that dark cabin, they ate worse than pigs and dogs. No matter how arrogant a person was, they would flatten their spirits. They had nothing left, so they could only gamble with their lives.
Moreover, if they failed, they would have lost their lives long ago. However, if it succeeded, it was hard to say if there would be benefits to repay them.
“Wealth comes in danger. What you said makes sense. I’m not afraid of anything. A mere fish is nothing.”
Boss Huang narrowed his fierce eyes and said fiercely.
The crew members fell silent. They did not have much say. Moreover, this was indeed tempting. A Kun, a Kun in the sea. In this sea area, they had only seen a few. If they could get one, all of them would be able to live a good life and not have to drift in the sea.
When they returned home, they would have so much gold and silver. Their wives and children would live good lives too.
“Since you’re going to be bait, you can’t be too thin. Change their location and send some good food over.” Boss Huang saw the condition An Lie was in and waved his hand to give the order.
An Lie smiled obsequiously and said, “Thank you, Boss. Thank you, Boss. I have another request.”
Boss Huang looked over fiercely.
An Lie shrunk his body, but he still smiled obsequiously and said, “My mother died of illness. I want to ask Boss Huang for a thin coffin to store her in. After catching the big Kun, I’ll go home and bury her in glory. Whether it’s us siblings or our uncle, just leave one on the ship. Let’s leave a survivor alive to make funeral arrangements. In the future, there can be people offering incense during the Qingming Festival.”
