Chapter 16: Out to Sea

Two days later, Shinhyuk and Sanna'er arrived at the harbor as promised, and it was getting dark, and the ghost ship was about to leave the sea of tranquility in two hours, and I don't know when it would appear next time.

Karl's words before he died lingered in his ears: "If you want to save Ah Xuan, get on the ghost ship, and you will find the answer." ”

A few days ago, the matter that Shenhe explained to Sanna'er has been completed, and there are about 100 people standing on the harbor at this time, including a mercenary group of 13 people who act as security for this operation, two cooks, two sailors, a priest, two explorers, and the rest of the people include more than 40 sailors and more than 40 workers.

Shenhyuk was the first to board the ghost ship, and the others followed one after another.

It was dark, and the top of the tower of Hayers shone brightly on the tranquil bay, and as the moon rose, the ghost ship faded away......

The ghost ship moved smoothly on the surface of the sea, without even needing to be powered, and headed in an unknown direction, and the navigator stood on the deck with a compass and nautical charts and began to record.

A few sailors walked up and down the deck, lighting the lights, and the ship's lamps were a round chandelier plate of the last century, cast in bronze, and in the lamp tray burned candles, as if they would never diminish.

The kitchen is tense and busy, in addition to the two chefs, there are more than a dozen people working together to prepare a sumptuous candlelight dinner for everyone.

"Why did you get up?"

In the room, Shenhyuk sits elegantly on the couch, the whole person seems to be inlaid in it, this sofa is made of cowhide, sitting on it soft and comfortable, relieving fatigue, only the royal family has.

"I've left the children in Sophia's care, and there will be no problems. ”

Sanna sat across from Shenhyuk with her head bowed.

"That's not what I'm talking about. ”

Shenhe picked up half a glass of light wine poured on the table and took a sip with his mouth, it tasted good.

"Oh, sister, people have come up, you let me get off the boat now, such a big wave, such a deep water, you also know that my water quality is quite poor!"

Sanna is trying to seize on Shinhyuk's sympathy to get by.

"Smack!"

The wine glass trembled on the table, and the wine inside swirled and spilled on the table.

"If something happens to you, how can I explain it to my mother, she will be left with you as a companion. ”

Sanna'er saw that Shenhyuk was angry, and took out something from her chest and slapped it on the table.

"Zheng ......!"

Take a closer look at the badge, the war horses on it are shining together, it's not a knight's badge or what?

"Hua'er, you are a princess, so can you tell me what the duties of a knight are?"

"Guard!"

Without thinking, Shenhe blurted out.

"So?"

Sanna'er looked at Shenhe triumphantly, and blinked her eyes, like a Persian cat trying to please her master.

"That'...... Everything must be under command. ”

Shenhyuk shook his head helplessly.

Sanna'er jumped excitedly onto Shenhyuk's sofa, put one hand around Shenhyuk's shoulder, snatched the wine glass, and drank the rest of the wine in the cup.

"Hua'er rest assured, from now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west, and if you ask me to beat dogs, I will never steal chickens. ”

Before Sanna'er's wine glass was put down, there was a commotion outside, and it seemed that someone was arguing......

Shinhyuk ran over to open the door, only to see a brightly dressed woman leaning against the railing, chattering and swearing. In the aisle behind the door, a boy had blood on the corner of his mouth, kneeling on the ground and crying, and he didn't stop until he saw Shenhe.

"What's the matter, this is? Don't cry!"

Seeing that he was a few years younger than himself, Shinhyuk crouched down and helped the boy to his feet, smiling and encouraging.

The boy stopped crying, wiped his red eyes, and stared at Shenhyuk intently, and the beautiful princess in the fairy tale is nothing more than that!

"Tell my sister what's your name?"

Shenhyuk took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiped the blood from the corner of the boy's mouth.

"Dog, dog......"

After the boy finished speaking, he pursed his lips and lowered his head.

Shenhyuk rubbed the boy's dirty hair: "Okay, little man, don't cry!"

He shoved the handkerchief into the boy's hand and encouraged him again.

The boy looked at the handkerchief, looked up, and grinned.

Sanna'er picked up the broken plate and led the boy into the house by the way.

Shen He glanced at the woman leaning against the railing, and his face was expressionless: "Go and call your regiment leader, no, it should be all the people of your mercenary group." ”

When the woman heard this, she walked away.

In the hall, more than a dozen candles were lit, and a classical and melodious Huadian tune came from the piano in the corner.

"Bang!"

Shenhyuk opened a bottle of red wine, poured it into the high-legged luminous glass, and when it was almost full, he leaned on the table and drank it, and when he was about halfway through the drink, he stopped, looked left and right, and found that no one was secretly laughing, just like when we were children, we ate the little joy in our hearts.

After a while, a group of people came down from the upper floor, and the leader sat opposite Shenhe, about thirty years old, gentle and elegant, and his face was as white as jade.

Shinhyuk picked up another glass, poured about a third of the wine, and handed it to the man's table.

"Thank you. ”

The man spoke politely.

"It's better to see than to hear, it turns out that the people of the Mahler Legion are such gentlemen. ”

Shenhe looked at the thirteen people of the Mahler mercenary group, tall, short, fat and thin, all men, women and children.

"Princess, are you looking for us?"

The man sits upright.

Shen He swept towards the thirteen people with a provocative gaze: "The Mahler mercenary group, founded in 1698, was once the largest mercenary group on the mainland, and even dared to fight with demon pirates, but now it has been established for more than thirty years, not only is it not more powerful, but it has been declining since the death of the founder Male, and all this credit comes from the fact that he entrusted his son Ma Fei and daughter Ma Li. ”

Ma Li was furious when she heard this, and was stopped by the other team members.

Seeing this, Shenhe continued to provoke, and when it came to provocation, he learned from Karl.

"Why, if you don't speak, you can't mourn more than your heart dies, has what I said become your painless habit?

Ma Li tore away from her teammates' barriers and argued with Shenhyuk.

"If you want to declare a personal vendetta then we chose the wrong one, as for what you said is not the truth, you don't understand the situation at all, Mafei is conscientious and a good leader, he just doesn't want to follow his father's path, we are unlucky now, and one day we will work hard to create brilliance. ”

"Oh, I'd like to hear how you're going to be ...... again."

Shenhyuk looked at Maffei.

Ma Fei smiled: "I know the princess's concerns, although our reputation cannot be compared with the past, but you can rest assured that our strength will not live up to the trust." ”

Shenhe shook the red wine in his hand: "A good sentence is greater than fame, since I invite you, you should uphold the suspicion of not needing, and you will not doubt the use of people, but please also do your best to naturally regain the glory of the past." ”

After saying that, Shenhyuk drank all the red wine in his hand, and by the way, took the undrunk wine on the table, along with the whole bottle of wine.

"This wine is so delicious, if you are older, eat less sweets!"

Shenhyuk took his things upstairs, and before leaving, he didn't forget to complain about Ma Fei's age, even Ma Fei, who has always been calm and breezy. When Shenhyuk went up the stairs, the people of the Mahler mercenary group finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Don't have a sweet tooth when you're older. ”

"It's like, what sweet to eat when you're old. ”

"Eat sour for health. ”

"Hahaha......"
