Chapter 1625: 1625: What’s the Situation Outside?
The people on the ship clearly won’t show us a friendly face—they’ve all been offended by Gu Qingyu just now.
“Sigh!”
He exhaled heavily, watching as Su Tang’s men wrested Gu Qingyu from her brother, then, ignoring her screams, hung her from the stern of the ship.
At this moment, Gu Qingyu looked down to see nothing but the endless sea below her, crying and begging for mercy. When her cries fell on deaf ears aboard the ship, she started calling out to Brother Zhen and the others.
However, even Brother Zhen and the others were in no position to help themselves at this moment, hearing her voice, they were full of dismay, wishing they could pretend they hadn’t heard.
“Forget it, let’s stay,”
In the end, it seemed as if Brother Zhen had struggled internally before deciding to stay.
After all, they couldn’t just abandon Gu Qingyu here, could they? Besides, they were in a predicament themselves without this ship, they might not be able to reach the Zhedu Sea Area at all.
As for Gu Qingyu’s cries for help, not a single one of them paid any attention. One must swallow the bitter fruit of their own doing, right?
The result of speaking rashly is just this; he had already warned her countless times.
…
In the cabin, An Jiuyue had not been asleep for long before she was woken by piercing cries for help. The cabin was dim, lit by only a single lamp due to the absence of sunlight.
“Wei Na, what’s happening outside?”
With Qian Jiyun not around, she could only ask Wei Na in the space.
“A woman spoke out of turn, and the master ordered her to be hung at the stern to reflect on her actions,” Wei Na pursed his lips as he spoke.
For him, such a punishment was still too childish, but for a frail girl like Gu Qingyu, being hung at the stern was quite severe, wasn’t it?
She probably hadn’t suffered like this before. Now she would get a taste of hardship.
“What did she say?” An Jiuyue asked.
Usually, Qian Jiyun would order someone to be hung at the stern? That’s impossible.
“Well…”
Wei Na wasn’t sure if he should say.
But if he didn’t, the master would probably find out soon anyway. It was better for him to tell her, to prepare her mentally.
“She didn’t say much, just told the people on the ship that she knew the master well and would eventually become his woman, at which point she would make sure none of them got off lightly.”
An Jiuyue: “…”
Are the girls nowadays that bold?
Really, they say anything; with that poker face of her man towards other women, how could he be very familiar with that woman?
“I’ll go take a look. We can’t let her keep shouting like this.”
With that, she got up from the bed and slowly made her way outside.
Wei Na: “!”
He really wanted to say, why should his master bother with such a foolish woman?
But what his master wanted to do was truly not for him to critique; whatever the master wished, so be it.
…
On the deck, Su Tang was holding a Sea Area Map, looking at a group of people gathered around.
“Over here, and here, we can’t sail directly through, there are very powerful Sea Demonic Beasts. We can only take this route and go around from above,”
Zhan Beiye pointed at several spots with one hand, then used his index finger to draw a winding route on the map.
