Chapter 1: Strangers
1506 in the Haiyuan calendar, East China Sea. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The peaceful and peaceful life of the town is easily torn apart by a group of outsiders, and a broken multi-masted schooner with a skull flag is moored on the docks, and in the darkness of the night, the pirate ship rises and falls with the waves, like a living sea monster, it quietly watches the town full of fighting and roaring, as in the past, it may have long been accustomed to.
The outskirts of the town were already full of traces of pirate attacks, and some sporadic fires ignited by the battle lit up the streets, and the pirates hurried.
It wasn't until one of them suddenly stopped in front of a tavern with an open door, and the other three companions, led by him, also stopped.
The pirates who took the lead walked a few steps, realized that something was wrong, and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
The first to stop in front of the tavern was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, blonde hair, blue eyes, high nose and deep eyes, slightly childish, like the other pirates on the same ship, because he had not had a good rest for a long time, his appearance looked a little embarrassed and sloppy, and his face was dark, but unlike those old pirates who were full of excitement because they could burn and loot immediately, his face did not have the slightest sense of joy.
"I'm going to stay here," the young man who stopped looking at the tavern and said lightly, "the ship is about to run out of supplies, and I'm going to bring some wine back to the ship first, so that everything here won't be ruined in a while." ”
Unlike the teenagers who were not interested in looting, the old pirates at the head looked a little impatient as they listened to the noise of their companions rummaging through the cabinets and the faint cries for help from women.
The old pirate in the lead thought about it, the town's resistance had been torn apart, and they didn't need to act in a group anymore, so after hearing the young man's words, although he laughed in his heart, he still raised his thumb and said: "William, you are really good, but I see that you don't need so many people to help, so let's go first." ”
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for the young pirate he called William to respond, and shook his head at several accomplices, and several of them hurriedly rushed into the town with excitement on their faces.
A few faint words of ridicule came to the ears of the people in front of the tavern along the wind, "It's stupid." "A rookie who doesn't understand anything. ”
The other pirates left behind looked angry, and the pirate named William didn't react when he heard this, perhaps because he was different from these pirates, he was a time-traveler, a visitor from another world, and he didn't look down on the behavior of these people at all.
On the earth in the 21st century, his name is Sun Bo, he is a white-collar worker, and in the words of the Internet, he is about to become a CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and embark on the peak of life, but life is so wonderful, on the way to becoming a CEO, on the way to win Bai Fumei, halfway to the peak of life, the unlucky Sun Bo was suddenly given a kidney blow by fate, so he was tragic.
Without any warning or excuse, just a short nap in the office, he crossed over, and joined an industry that anyone who grew up and lived in a stable society would find unpromising - pirates.
But Sun Bo is not a person who likes to feel sorry for himself, there is no customer service to appeal through this thing, there are no basic laws and regulations, and it is not something that can be reversed by the will of ordinary people, he can only recognize the reality and not waste time and energy in useless places.
The customs and habits of this world are very different from the earth before the crossing, and even the distribution of human races is a little weird, Sun Bo now occupies a body that is obviously close to the Germanic race in the previous life, in addition, the Mediterranean people, East Asian races and other pirates with different skin colors and appearances on the ship are all kinds of people, but they speak the same language.
This strange environment made the cautious Sun Bo not dare to have the slightest idea of revealing the fact that he was a traverser, who knows if the people here would tie him to a pillar and burn him to death after discovering that he was a traverser.
Fortunately, the instinctive memories of the original owner of this body were accepted by him, such as language, movements, etc., and other memories were superimposed like a bunch of messy photos, not only messy and unorganized, but also emotionally estranged.
However, this did not prevent Sun Bogu from using his name, Morgan William.
Morgan is the surname, William is the first name, Sun Bo, or William is too lazy to delve into why the name is similar to the English species of the previous life, but the order of the name is according to the Oriental custom, and he has a more urgent practical problem to solve - adapting to the life of a pirate.
As an ordinary person who grew up in a peaceful society, it took William a few months to gain a firm foothold on the pirate ship, and he also roped in three of his peers to form a close-knit small gang led by him.
At this time, a dark and thin pirate who followed behind William raised his eyebrows after hearing the ridicule from several old pirates, and without saying a word, grabbed a solid iron rod stuck in his waist and was about to catch up with the other party.
William hurriedly grabbed him and whispered, "Leave them alone, Ah Jin." ”
The pirate known as Ah Jin was about the same age as William, but his face looked like he was in his thirties, except that he was dark and thin, his eyes were sunken, and his lips were blue, and he looked like a tuberculosis ghost.
William was a man who was apparently a man who made retribution of gratitude a man in life, and since then he has been a member of William's small gang and has been most obedient to William's words.
Therefore, when Ah Jin heard that William asked him not to pursue it, although he was angry, he still stopped, just glanced at the few old pirates who walked away, and scolded: "A few old dogs!"
William patted Ah Jin on the shoulder, and led the way into the tavern, and the other three followed.
The tavern was very chaotic, with tables and chairs lying on the ground everywhere, and it seemed that the customers here were very flustered when they left, and it seemed that some pirates who had walked in front had been here before a few people, and they simply rummaged through the loot, so that there were many broken wine bottles on the ground, and the wine was scattered all over the ground, and a few people smelled a strong smell of wine when they entered the door.
William glanced around and saw that the tavern was not large, except for the front and back doors, only a wooden door behind the bar, which seemed to lead to the other rooms.
He instructed Akin and the other pirate to stay and watch the front and back doors, and then ordered a young pirate named Aramis to walk carefully with him to the bar.
Aramis was a young man of medium height, with short black hair slightly curled against his head, and a harmless-looking baby face, always habitually smiling, revealing a pair of shallow dimples and two conspicuous tiger teeth.
Aramis followed William and the two tiptoed to the door, William took out a loaded flintlock pistol from his bosom and pointed it at the wooden door, nodded to Aramis, and Aramis immediately flew up and kicked the wooden door open.
There was no one behind the wooden door that William's muzzle was pointing at, and Aramis shrugged his shoulders at him and said, "Looking at the appearance of this tavern, I guess there will be no one left." ”
"There's nothing wrong with being careful. William was also somewhat relieved, not afraid of encountering enemies, he was actually afraid of encountering civilians.
William lowered his gun and entered the aisle behind the door, where Aramis took the time to rummage through the messy bar, finding nothing but a drink-soaked ledger, apparently all of the money had been taken by the previous wave of pirates.
Aramis threw the ledger away, and then quickly caught up with William, and said in a somewhat complaining tone: "William, you are not a cadre on the ship, what to worry about supplies, when the captain and they organize people to carry the wine to the ship, you will still have a share, and finally go ashore once, and you will not go to find something valuable, but you will come to carry the wine! How come I don't usually know that you love to drink so much?"
William glanced at him: "People who are dying, what's the use of grabbing more money?"
Aramis was stunned when he heard this, and said curiously, "What do you mean?"
"Navy," William's face was a little gloomy, it was unlucky enough to cross into a criminal, and even more unlucky was to cross into a fugitive criminal who had a chasing soldier after crossing over, his tone was somewhat unhappy, with sarcasm, "Isn't it strange that those fools whose brains are not much bigger than goldfish, even if our ships are intact, they will be caught up by the warships of that navy, and now that the masts on our ships are broken, we can throw off the warships that are almost intact, and the other party can't catch up?"
Aramis blushed, but asked, "You mean we didn't get rid of those damn navies?"
"Perhaps, maybe the navy was very unlucky, and we were very lucky, they happened to be shipwrecked, or they happened to have no charts with them, so they didn't mean to drive us in the direction of this little island?" William pushed open the door of one of the bedrooms, rummaged through it at random, and found nothing of value, so he grabbed a pillow and walked out, and continued, "But I guess the captain is also worried in their hearts, haven't you noticed? The Navigators, these cadres, and their cronies, did not go deep into the town, but all wandered around the outskirts of the town very close to the ship, and only a few reckless fools happily walked towards the center of the town far from the ship, and some clever old pirates did not dare to go too far from the ship. ”
William spat and said, "Those fools who run around like sheep, if they really find the navy, they won't have time to get on board." ”
Aramis is not stupid, after thinking about it, he found that what William said seemed to be right, and he couldn't help sighing, but he still didn't give up and said: "Actually, you also said, it's not impossible that we successfully got rid of the navy." ”
"Perhaps," William sighed, but he repeated, "but there is nothing wrong with being careful. ”
Aramis nodded a little heavily, and then saw that William no longer moved forward, but turned sideways to look at himself, and couldn't help but ask inexplicably, "What's wrong?"
William pushed him angrily: "Lead the way! Find the wine cellar! After finding the wine cellar, we will move a few barrels of wine back to the ship, if the navy is coming, we don't have to worry about being thrown down, and when those old dogs are caught and hanged by the navy, I wonder who they will think will be more stupid." ”
