Chapter 7: Captain Geiger
Kun Dashi led Yun Qi through the long aisle, up several stairs in a row, before coming to the deck of the big ship, there were relatively few people on the deck, a few were drinking wine and chatting, a few were looking out from the lookout, the pair of "chicken wings" under the two wheel pulp kept turning, the boat shook and swayed, although there were ups and downs but very subtle, Yun Qi began to wonder what kind of energy the ship used, could it be the star energy told in memory? Even if I saw Yun Qi with my own eyes, I still wondered if I was living in a dream, this world is really strange.
After calming down, Kun Dashi had already brought Yun Qi to his destination, which was the huge chicken head at the bow of the boat, and behind the chicken head was a door, and Yun Qi estimated that their eldest brother lived in it. "Brother Shi, this is the captain's room, right?"
"Yes, let's go in!" Kun Dashi waved his hand.
"And what is the captain's name?"
"You'll know when you go in!" Kun Dashi didn't say much, just smiled mysteriously at him.
Pretend to be profound!" Yun Qi whispered in his heart.
Yun Qi decisively pushed open the door and walked in. Kun Dashi closed the door outside the door. The light shone in from outside the door, and the darkness swallowed up. The room was dark, but there was a faint fragrance. The furnishings inside are not real, but through the light through the crack in the door, you can feel that the furnishings inside are very simple.
Yun Qi walked straight in, and then he could vaguely see that on a seat inside, there was a tall man, dressed in a beast skin cloak, with broad shoulders and a long brim, his face buried in it and he couldn't see clearly, the man seemed to be asleep.
Yun Qi seemed to know that he was awake, so he clasped his fists and bowed ninety degrees, and said in the language of this world: "In Xia Yun Qi, thank you for saving your life!"
A flash of light suddenly appeared in front of Yun Qi's eyes, and when he looked closely, he looked like a pair of eyes, a pair of narrow and evil eyes, the eyes of the captain sitting on the chair.
"Your name is not Yun Qi, you are the third young master of the Gu family who left the country. A cold voice came out of the captain's mouth.
"That's right, but my name is Yun Qi now, not Gu Qi. Yun Qi said calmly.
"You know, you are just an ordinary person, and you are only saved because you are Gu Qi, otherwise, you would have died at the bottom of the sea. The man's voice was cold.
"Then dare to ask the captain, what are you trying to save me? If you take me as a hostage, you won't bother to talk so much!"
"That's right, Gu Qi! I guess you probably know who we are!"
"Pirates of the Xuan Sea!"
"It seems that you are not so ignorant of the world as rumored, we are indeed pirates of the whirling sea, and I am the captain of the headwind, Geiger!" Geig slowly got up, and the pearl on the ceiling lit up, and the furnishings in the room gradually appeared, but the bright light of the pearl did not stop, it became brighter and brighter, and finally converged into a beam of strong light to hit Geiger.
Yun Qi was startled by the sudden light, and subconsciously narrowed his eyes. I saw a powerful figure displayed under the strong light like a searchlight, but the face was covered by the brim attached to the cloak, the whole face was hidden in the darkness to reveal a mysterious feeling, and the dark red cloak behind him actually fluttered up, at this moment, Geige's figure was particularly dazzling.
Yun Qi said darkly, you will pretend to be forced, thinking that I don't know that the light of the pearl on the ceiling is controlled by yourself? As an alien, you only need to inject a small amount of star energy into the light to make the light brighter, and even this ship is the same way, its fundamental energy source is the star energy on the alien.
Is this proving that he is very strong? Yun Qi ignored Geiger, this is his family, and it is understandable that he shows his status at home.
Geig seemed to like this feeling very much, opened his hands to feel the illumination of the strong light, and said in an almost Destiny tone: "Gu Qi, I need you to do something for me...... If it is successful, you will be glorious!"
Yun Qi's face was full of black lines in an instant, are the people of this world so high-profile.
"Say, since my life and death are already in your hands, what do you like!" Yun Qi said leisurely. He understood that he had no choice, Gu Qi's memory told him that Xuanhai - located at the intersection of the three great powers of Chaoli State, Xia Shang State, and Li State, Xuanhai Sea is very vast, more vast than the total land area of the three countries, such a huge and rich sea area, but it does not belong to any country, there is a very important reason, here, there is a group of powerful pirates, among which the pirate gang named "Headwind" is the first to bear the brunt, and it is quite famous in this sea area, relying on strength!
And they fell into the hands of these people! Although they seem to be quite kind, they must not doubt their essence, pirates live a life of licking blood at the tip of a knife, and Yun Qi's hard-won life cannot be buried here in vain.
"You kid is a bit interesting, first of all, you have good cooking, where did you learn it?" Geiger asked, his voice uninaudible with no emotional fluctuations.
Yun Qi was a little surprised why Geiger asked this question, could it be that he had eaten it secretly when he was cooking by himself just now, would the dignified "headwind" captain do such a thing...... Yun Qi didn't think about it so much, and replied, "I studied blindly when I was fine." Of course, he won't tell the truth, otherwise he might have dissected himself directly by Geiger in front of him.
"Very good, then let's talk about business, the status of the Gu family in the Chaoli country, I think it goes without saying, you are the third son of the current head of the Gu family, I need you to obtain the ownership of Nuo'an City in the Western Regions of the Chaoli Country at all costs, and use it for our brothers on the Windwind. “
"It seems that Captain Geiger has already laid out everything...... Yun Qi's tone didn't show any anger, Nuo'an City is an inconspicuous small city on the western border of the country, and it is probably the limit of what can be achieved to fight for that city with his status in the Gu family. Geiger had clearly done his homework before that, and perhaps his presence was the best opportunity to do so.
"Aren't you afraid of my betrayal!" Yun Qi said lightly.
"Haha, stupid question, since you stepped into this boat, the end of your life has been in my hands!" Geiger let out a confident laugh, he had this ability, he also had this confidence, how easy it was for him to control the life and death of an ordinary person.
At that moment, Yun Qi could feel a huge sense of oppression emanating from Geig's body, and Yun Qi's heart seemed to have received a huge pressure, as if it was about to be torn apart, and soon the sense of oppression dissipated. Yun Qi could feel that something had changed in himself.
"The captain doesn't just want to take a city. Yun Qi was unmoved.
"You kid is interesting, it doesn't hurt to tell you that my goal is bigger, first the Western Regions and then, the entire dynasty leaving the country, and settling in is only the first step......" Geiger's voice seemed to have hatred in it.
"I agreed to your plan. Yun Qi replied very simply, he is Yun Qi, not Gu Qi, he should cooperate with the headwind pirates, and do things that damage the family Yun Qi has no burden in his heart.
"Okay! if Cheng sets you free and elevates you to glory!" Geig was very happy, the pearl on the ceiling shone brightly, and he opened his arms and once again made a gesture like a child of destiny.
"No, I'm going to join you, because you're free!" Yun Qi said decisively.
Geiger was stunned for a moment, and the light around him dimmed, but he quickly replied: "Do you understand what you are talking about? A son of a prince who left the country said that he was going to join the pirates of the Xuan Sea, it was really funny!" Geig's voice was very loud, even a little excited, because it was very easy to judge whether an ordinary person was lying or not with his strength - it was obvious that Yun Qi was not lying. This piqued Geiger's interest.
"The reason is very simple, I'm just an ordinary person, I'm tired of the struggle for power in the country, that kind of rotten life makes me sick! To be honest, I may be dead in the eyes of the family now!" Yun Qi said in his heart, in memory Gu Qi lived a very restrained and painful life, if he returned to the family, it would be better to go into the sea to be a thief, not to mention that there is also Liu Xiaoyue, the woman is here, it is estimated that it will not be easy to go back.
Geiger was silent for a while, as if thinking and reminiscing, and Yun Qi replied quietly on the side.
After a long time, Geig stood up from the seat, he slowly walked to the door, and when he passed Yun Qi, a big hand was on Yun Qi's shoulder, Yun Qi frowned, this hand was very cold, and it didn't seem to be much different from ice, and then, a voice came from Yun Qi's ear, "Boy, when you show your value and seize Nuo'an City, let's talk about it, tell you! Not everyone can come against the wind, and we don't leave the weak on the ship!"
Yun Qi suddenly felt that his mouth was cold, and when he touched it with his hand, the sausage mouth was gone, and when he turned around, the door had been opened, and the deck outside the door was bright and the sea was charming, but he couldn't see Geiger's figure. At this moment, Yun Qi quickly realized that pretending to be forced was the exclusive domain of the strong.
Kun Dashi walked over with a smile and patted Yun Qi's shoulder, "Hehe, little Qizi, just now the eldest brother ordered! Sail to the Western Regions of the Departure Country, you will be monitored by me all day before you reach your destination......" Kun Dashi smiled happily and even a little obscenely. Yun Qi suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong.
Headwind pirate ship, Geiger stood on the big chicken's head against the sea breeze, the dark red cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, Geiger's face was buried deep in the darkness, and his bright eyes were staring into the distance......
Life in the upwind boat is very free, to put it simply, there is no division between upper and lower levels in the ship, everyone has their own fixed position, Geiger requires them to do well when they should do it, and play happily when they should play.
Kun Dashi was full of smiles, led Yun Qi to the tavern in the ship, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a group of men sitting around these tables drinking ale wine, the sound was very noisy, and there was a strong smell of wheat in the air.
Kun Dashi laughed, "Geng Laohan can be laid off, we have a new cook!"
Everyone in the tavern cheered in unison, and the scene was very enthusiastic.
"I've long been tired of eating Geng Laohan's food, it's meat sauce every day, TM has long been tired of it!"
"Yes, Geng Laohan, you can be honorably laid off now!"
"That kid is, his name is Yun Qi, hehe, I didn't eat that meal at noon, I heard that it is ten million times better than that made by older men, you must give me a taste at night!"
Geng Laohan was a little uncomfortable, but he didn't care, the men were used to being wild, and they spoke straightforwardly, Geng Laohan didn't care, but as the oldest person on the ship, he was said so by the juniors, and he said that he couldn't go if he didn't say anything, Geng Laohan took a sip of wine, and then said leisurely, "At the beginning, there was no one on our ship who could cook, and none of them wanted to be cooks, hehe, although the dishes I made were not delicious, but over the years, my iron fists have been practiced, and any of you who is not satisfied can come to compare!"
"Hehe, Geng Laohan, I've come to talk to you!" a bare-chested man stood up and touched his slick head, revealing a row of big white teeth. Very young, Mo is about twenty years old.
"Haha, Xiaotu sees that you are young, don't say that I bullied you, let you have one hand. Geng Laohan was not ambiguous, put down the wine glass and stood up, standing with his hands in his hands, and the invisible aura spread.
"Geng Laohan doesn't have to be humble, I still have confidence in my strength. Xiaotu touched the tip of his nose and smiled.
"Okay, don't go to Geiger if you lose later. Geng Lao Han grinned. There are not many people in the ship who dare to call the captain by his name, but he is even more senior, and his seniority is not much different from Geiger, so it is logical to call it so.
The venue is full of taste, and everyone is happy to see the excitement, which is very cooperative, the tavern is already wide, and everyone retreats to give way to a large open space. The two faced off in the clearing, neither knowing what would happen in the next moment.
As soon as Yun Qi came in, there was a big battle to watch, and it was a competition between two strangers, and he was also looking forward to it, and he sat behind Kun Dashi and picked up the wine glass and drank it, fortunately! The wine is not bad, but I don't know how this exchange is.
