Chapter 30: Unintentionally Acquired Treasures
Zheng Fei was lying on the deck sleeping, looking up at the starry sky, blowing the pleasant sea breeze, and floating in the calm Mediterranean.
He liked the feeling, more appropriately, intoxication, and maybe only then would he be free of distractions and truly relaxed.
The starry sky was his childhood fantasy, and the little bright spots were mysterious and unpredictable, making people want to fly up and pick them. However, when he grew up, the textbooks told him that those mysterious little bright spots were just stars, no different from the sun.
Science has led to human progress, but it has destroyed the illusions that were first beautiful.
The morning on the sea came early, without the shelter of mountains and forests, and the morning sun rose lazily from the sea level, pouring out the sun to dye the sea a brilliant golden yellow, and proudly told the sailing people that it was back.
When the first rays of sunlight touched his eyelids, Zheng Fei opened his eyes and sat up, stretched his waist and hurried to the wheelhouse, roughly determining his current position according to the chart, heading and wind speed.
He didn't have the heart to sleep, he killed Sir Henry's men yesterday, and with the habits of pirates, if they found out that their companions had not returned, they would probably mobilize everyone to conduct a carpet search of a large area of the sea, and then they would really be trapped in the Mediterranean.
So, you have to go full speed ahead and get out of here as fast as you can!
He gave the exhausted sailors an extra half an hour of rest, and then the alarm bell rang, and the sailors yawned and gathered in their clothes, emaciated.
Judging by the way they looked, it seemed that they didn't care much about the slaughter of pirates.
Zheng Fei smiled and asked, "Are you tired?"
"Tired!"
"Ha~ Then treat everyone! Anna, you take two beautiful women to prepare breakfast, and the raw materials are the trophies you won yesterday, I remember that there are a few boxes of canned cod eaten by the nobles of England!"
"Wow ~ Captain Wise!" the sailors cheered, and after a whole day of torture, they felt the joy of sailing for the first time.
"Don't praise me yet!" Zheng Fei smiled evilly, scratched his head and continued: "If you want to eat good things, you have to work more!"
"What job?" the sailors snapped, wouldn't they be swimming again?
"The weather is a little cold today, if you feel cold, you won't go to the sea, tell me if you're cold?"
"Well, you can catch a cold when you're wrapped in a quilt at night!" said Pete, sniffing his nose, pretending to tuck his hands into his sleeves.
"What about the others, are they all cold?"
"Hmm!" only a fool would be willing to go to the sea for another day.
"Okay, then let's do some exercise to warm up! Everyone go back to the cabin and get a long oar, and row!"
Everyone was stunned, their smiles turned into distress, and they sighed in a low voice.
"Damn"
"Captain, our ship is a sailboat, right?"
"Sail and oars are used for both purposes, in order to speed up the sailing, you can only work hard. Zheng Fei smiled evilly, and seeing that they were still reluctant to move, he rubbed his eyebrows and sighed: "The last two are not allowed to touch Vivian and Lilith for two weeks after they get the oars!"
As soon as these words came out, the sailors scattered in an instant, running faster than rabbits, and did not even have time to complain.
He was not idle, and went to the cargo hold to clean up the supplies seized yesterday and see if there were any good things.
When I opened the cargo door and lit the dim oil lamp, the strong smell of logs came to my nose, but it smelled good.
It seems that the pirates were of poor business, and all they could weigh in was a small box of silver coins, about two hundred.
He rummaged through the pile of miscellaneous items, and pulled out a knight's saber, the delicate scabbard removed, revealing a cold blade that glowed with a ghostly light, and easily sliced through the chain with a flick of his wrist.
What is particularly eye-catching is that the end of its handle is inlaid with a sapphire the size of an egg, like an enlarged version of the Persian cat's eyes, mysterious and eerie.
Engraved next to the gemstone are two letters "A.P" and two English words "Once, Future".
In the dark, Zheng Fei had a feeling that this was a rare treasure, he frowned slightly and stared at the words, and said to himself: "Once, the future, what do you mean?"
Helplessly, although his English is very good, he is really a scumbag in terms of British history, and he can be described as ignorant, he thought about it, picked up this knife and went to the deck.
"George!" he cried out, thinking that perhaps the Englishman knew.
George was spying on Lilith with a telescope on the watchtower to change clothes, when he shouted and almost fell down.
"Is there anything wrong, Captain?" he smiled.
"Come down, help me look at something!"
George hugged the wooden pole and quickly slid down, and Vivian, who had just baked pine nut bread, also came to Zheng Fei's side and gently helped him massage and rub his shoulders.
Zheng Fei knew that she wanted to replace Anna as her own woman, she was very sexy, especially when she changed into pajamas and stood on the deck at night to blow the wind, she was simply a stunner.
However, he is not good at this, because it is too profligate, he can only play and can't be distracted.
"George, do you know where this knife came from?" he held the knife in his right hand and touched her fair thigh with his left.
George took the knife, his eyes were immediately drawn to the emerald, and he exclaimed, "This gem is worth at least a boat!"
Then, he saw the letters, and the surprise on his face froze when he saw the two words.
"What's wrong, George?"
"Where did this knife come from?"
"Yesterday's loot. ”
"My God, the treasure that should have belonged to the King of England, has appeared here. George said a little distractedly, a trace of timidity appeared in his eyes, and he hurriedly returned the knife to Zheng Fei.
Seeing that he was acting abnormally, Zheng Fei opened his mouth and just wanted to ask, but he held back and took his hand away from Vivian's thigh, and said, "You go back to the house first, I have something to talk about with George." ”
Vivien snorted and reluctantly walked away with a catwalk, slapping his ass proflibly before leaving, owing **.
"Wait for me in bed tonight!" Zheng Fei teased, then took a deep breath and motioned for George with his eyes to start talking.
"Captain, have you heard of King Arthur?"
Hearing King Arthur, Zheng Fei raised his eyebrows, although he didn't know this person, but he had heard of this movie, it is said that the original director was Michael Bay, who made the Transformers series, and later Michael refused because he disliked the filming budget was too small.
"Well, you go on. ”
"He is the greatest king of Britain, creating one mythical legend after another, and is known as the King of Eternity. George's face was solemn, licked his chapped mouth and said: "Please look at the handle of this knife, A.P is the abbreviation of King Arthur's name, Once and Future mean eternity, this knife is a sacred knife cast by the king of England more than a thousand years ago to commemorate King Arthur, held by successive kings, it was stolen three hundred years ago and has not been accounted for until now." ”
After listening to such a long paragraph, Zheng Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't care about what you said, I only care about how much it's worth." ”
"Nobody dares to buy it. ”
"So it's worthless?"
"No, its value depends on whose hands it is. ”
[Holiday, I wish you all a good holiday, and there will be a small event tonight~]
