It's clearly a crossover game, but the system insists it's a pirate game.

Huang Rong felt that she hadn't made a mistake in giving this guy the nickname "Big Dumb Guy"!

This guy borrowed ten taels of silver from me, then bought a broken boat, solemnly named it, and then smashed it... What is this if not stupid?

However, Zhou Ye was quite satisfied.

Although I didn't manage to learn all six styles from the master and master Life Return, I did learn Paper Drawing and Shave, which increased my survival ability. This is something to be happy about.

But in Huang Rong's eyes...

Look! This guy is still laughing, laughing so happily. Could he really be an idiot? But that doesn't make sense. How could an idiot see through my disguise? He's acting so convincingly. And how does he know about Peach Blossom Island?

Wait, is this guy just faking me?

"Now, I'm not only your crew member, but also your creditor, so you can't kick me out!"

Zhou Ye thought about it and realized that... if it was just the crew, then if the ship was gone, everyone could go their separate ways without any problem. But if it was the creditor, it would indeed be difficult to drive him away.

"Alright, let's go somewhere first."

After Zhou Ye finished speaking, he turned and headed north. He planned to send her to Zhangjiakou so that she could meet her destined Jing-gege. After getting rid of her, he would return south to seek his own opportunities.

Huang Rong was clever and mischievous, but in Zhou Ye's mind, she was still a minor trouble.

"Hey big oaf, how did you get so tall?"

"Eat well and go to bed on time."

"Then how did you know about me and my father?"

"Just a guess."

"Then guess what I'm thinking right now?"

"I won't guess."

For two whole days, after Huang Rong returned to her normal attire, she chattered around Zhou Ye like a little sparrow, while Zhou Ye remained as still as a block of wood. However, this had no effect on Huang Rong at all; on the contrary, he became even more talkative.

It wasn't until the middle of the night on the third day that Zhou Ye suddenly woke up: Oh no! Does my style clash with the character of Master Guo?

Just as he was thinking about changing his character, a thought suddenly struck him. He flashed forward, and Huang Rong, who was sleeping soundly, was abruptly forced to turn on. She was still somewhat bewildered: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"Let's leave first."

"No, what happened?"

Zhou Ye suddenly sighed: "No need, there's no way to avoid it now."

Actually, he could have avoided it, but Zhou Ye didn't want his secret to be exposed too early, especially in front of Huang Rong. That girl was too smart. He really didn't mean to do it a few days ago; he was genuinely afraid that he would accidentally let her get all the information out of him.

Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen...

His maxed-out Observation Haki allowed him to foresee the future for a short time. In his recent vision, a man and a woman carrying a child, covered in blood, rushed towards them.

It was obvious that he was being chased, so he really didn't want to get involved. But Huang Rong's delay made it too late.

Huang Rong was still a little dazed, but she soon saw a man and a woman covered in blood appear, each holding a small child.

When the two men saw Zhou Ye and Huang Rong, their eyes finally lit up. They were already unsteady on their feet due to excessive blood loss. When the woman's legs gave way and the man went to help her, both of them fell to the ground. However, as they fell, they both protected the child in their arms.

"ah!"

Huang Rong exclaimed in surprise and ran towards the two of them, calling out to Zhou Ye, "Big oaf, help!"

Zhou Ye didn't move, but instead looked behind the two people: "Friends, you can leave now and I can pretend I didn't see you. These two... are already beyond saving, but the child cannot be left to you."

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

"Hahaha…"

A burst of laughter rang out, and the three men emerged from the shadows. They glanced at the couple on the ground, then ignored Huang Rong and turned their attention back to Zhou Ye: "Friends? It seems only small fry like you dare to come out and try to negotiate with us. Kid, do you know who we are?"

Zhou Ye's lips twitched. He was in no mood for further conversation, so he extended his right hand, making a gun-like gesture, and aimed it at one of them. Then...

"Finger gun!"

"Bang!"

Gunshots rang out and men fell.

In this world where there is no domineering presence or superhuman physique, the power of a finger gun is by no means inferior.

This unexpected turn of events didn't leave the other two dumbfounded. They didn't even glance at it and ran off in two different directions.

Zhou Ye sighed, stretched out his hands, and made a gesture towards the backs of the two people. He hated trouble and tried to avoid it as much as possible, but if he couldn't avoid it, he would deal with it cleanly and decisively.

"Bang!"

One shot rang out, two bullets were fired. Unfortunately, they hit their targets but didn't kill anyone. One person was hit in the shoulder, and the other in the waist.

Zhou Ye sighed again, waved his hands, and after the gunpowder smoke at his fingertips dissipated, he walked towards Huang Rong and the family.

By the time he got closer, the woman was already dead. The man was also seriously injured, but if he could hold on until he reached the town or city, find a clinic for treatment, and then rest properly, he would survive.

But the couple's relationship was just too good. When one of them passed away, the other insisted on taking over, leaving only two babies behind, leaving Zhou Ye and Huang Rong at a loss.

"His name is Jiang Feng, this lady's name is Hua Yuenü, and these two children..."

"Take them with you; they're two lives after all."

Huang Rong nodded: "Yes, it's two lives after all. When there are people around, we can help them find a good family... Hey? You big oaf, what are you doing?"

"Search the corpses and see if they have any silver on them."

Huang Rong: ...

Just when I thought this big, clumsy guy had a kind heart, he suddenly died like this. But... it's quite interesting. Shi Lu is actually quite compassionate, and he knows me very well, even my personality.

Don't think that just because you don't talk much, I won't discover your secret, hmph!

The bad guy didn't have much cash on him, just a few dozen taels of loose silver, but he had three silver notes, each worth one hundred taels, for a total of three hundred taels.

However, Jiang Feng and his wife did not have any loose silver, but they did have several bloodstained silver notes, as well as a jade pendant and a few pieces of jewelry.

"Hey! Don't go too far!"

Huang Rong couldn't stand it any longer: "I won't say anything if you touch the corpses of bad people, but you touch the corpses of a married couple? Don't you have any humanity?"

Zhou Ye glanced at her, then said slowly, "Your name is Huang Rong, and your father is Huang Yaoshi."

Huang Rong snorted and said, "Didn't you already know that?"

Zhou Yechong reached out his hand and said, "Give it to me."

"What?"

"Proof that you are Huang Yaoshi's daughter."

Huang Rong was dumbfounded. How could she prove this?

Zhou Ye said unhurriedly, "Your father is still alive. As long as we find him, we can prove your identity. But what about these two children? Their parents are dead. In the future, if they say they are Jiang Feng's sons, how will they prove it if others don't believe them?"
