Chapter 3 Return, the first week of the no-sea period
At night, there is always only the sound of moonlight, sea breeze and waves, and the constant surface of the sea and the frequency of the light swaying of the ship are easy to cause drowsiness. On night www.biquge.info s like this, except for those who need to stay at their posts, everyone else usually chooses to rest early. However, in such a peaceful night, there was a "clanging" sound on the dark deck.
Immediately afterwards, the suppressed scolding of the red turban also followed: "Be careful! Idiot! We're in trouble if we let those people hear us! ”
After a few more slight cracks, the group continued to walk towards the boat's wooden boat in the dark. They tried to slow down as much as possible so that the items in their packages didn't make noises that made them feel weak.
The red bandana that walked in front would turn back in the direction of the cabin from time to time to look back, for fear that the whereabouts of several people would be discovered. The unrealistic wishful thinking about the three uninvited guests before is completely gone at this time. For him, who had seen that young man fight against Thorny Stegosaurus in the afternoon, it was already the best choice to sneak away with the treasure at night.
"Brother, shall we bring these things?" Hoodby, the goat who followed behind the red turban, asked cautiously.
"That's all we had to grab from that town, why do you still have any thoughts on those three people? Is a woman or a life important? The red turban misunderstood what the other party meant, and tapped the head of the goatee and lectured.
"I'm not talking about them, I'm talking about Laurie, and we just left him there?"
"That guy? Hmph, isn't he happy to serve those people? Let him stay, then, if he hadn't swallowed all the packets of drowsiness powder at noon, he wouldn't have slept like a dead pig by now. With that, the fat man turned his head and beckoned the others to prepare to lower the dinghy into the sea.
Because of their familiarity with the sea, they don't have to worry about finding their way back to the island. If they hadn't taken the heavy gold and silver jewels with them, they could have even swam back with their bare hands.
"Hmm......" Goatee nodded thoughtfully, and whispered again, "But even if you don't bring him, a small boat doesn't seem to be able to hold so many things and people, right?" ”
His question made several people around him unconsciously stretch their ears. After all, the red turban has just left one person behind, and who knows if he will make the same choice again.
And this time the fat man's answer was that they were all relieved: "Then take turns to follow the boat." Once, our boat was sunk, didn't we swim back to the island for one night? It's only a long way from our island. ”
"Alright, get ready to lower the dinghy into the sea." The fat man pointed to the dinghy and ordered, as a small leader, it was naturally not his turn to personally go into battle for such a trivial matter. He looked back at the direction of the stern, but there was still no movement, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and finally escaped. At the same time, he scolded in his heart, go to your Seven Gods Arch!
"Yes." Several of his subordinates were also full of enthusiasm at this time, and after whispering promises, they were ready to step forward to release the boat.
At this moment, there was a voice from the small boat in front of him that made several people tremble:
"Well, I guessed right. You guys aren't ordinary sea people at all. ”
Yu Yi slowly sat up from the boat, he had been waiting here for a long time. "It doesn't matter who you are, in fact, as long as you honestly send me and my companions to the Seven Gods Arch, no matter what kind of path you are, I don't bother to take care of you. But now it seems ......," he said, tapping his greatsword on the dinghy with a dull thud.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please give us another chance!" Sensing the aura of danger, several crew members had already knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. With this action, the package they were carrying fell to the ground, scattering the coins and jewels on the ground.
Suddenly, the atmosphere froze.
"Well, it seems that you really don't lack the gold coins I gave." Yu Yi held the sword and nodded. "But come to think of it, your money should be hard to come by...... No, how to say it. Anyway, I'll take care of them now. ”
Hearing his words, a few people who had just frightened the six gods and no owners suddenly regained consciousness, and quickly put most of the money back into their bags. I heard the red turban order again: "Jump into the sea!" ”
"Plop plop!"
After a few splashes, several people jumped into the sea without any left. Maybe it was about their treasure, so after hearing the order to jump into the sea, everyone didn't hesitate.
However, since these guys are all good at water, even if they enter the sea, they still swim freely on the surface of the sea, showing their heads and looking at the people on the boat.
"I'll go, I'll just make a joke, as for that? Hey, y'all, come up. I don't rob you of your stuff. Seeing a few people going to the sea like this, Yu Yi was a little panicked, not that he really coveted those treasures. But without these people, who will drive the boat? It was true that his words just now were just a joke, but now it seems that it is useless to say anything.
No matter how he explained it now, in the eyes of the few people on the sea, he just wanted to bluff them into the boat, and then attack the treasure. "Don't be complacent, little ghost. No one will give you a boat, and I will see how long you can live on this sea, and maybe in a few days we will be back to see you on your knees begging for mercy. ”
"Hey, I said, fatty! You don't really want to just walk away like that, do you? How tired! Fatso! Huh! Come back! Yu Yi was still shouting, but several people had already swam away without looking back.
At this time, the cold voice of the silver-haired woman arrived in time: "Look at the good things you have done, are you satisfied?" ”
"I said, sister. If I hadn't stopped them tonight, wouldn't they have fled too? Yu Yi retorted stiffly.
"Sister? It's nice to call it like that, and call it again. The cold-faced woman didn't reason with him.
"It's all here, you're still in the mood to take advantage, right?" Yu Yi rarely had a feeling of meeting a female hooligan, "By the way, don't you, a mage, know everything?" Do you also know how to sail a boat? ”
Silverhair turned her head and glared at him, and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”
"Alright, alright, then let's just float on the sea." Yu Yi used his nose to grow out of the airway.
"Before you say that, I think you should have a look in the crew's cabin." After seeing the big boy say frustrating words, the silver-haired woman couldn't bear to continue to hit him.
From the woman's words, Yu Yi also heard a hint of a turnaround. Immediately came to the spirit, followed her, and walked to the cabin.
Soon after, the two walked into the cabin, which was located on the first deck. Bosling had been waiting there for a long time, and there was a sleeping guy lying on the bed in the cabin. Several people were unfamiliar with him, it was the dark brown curly-haired crew member before.
"Hey! Feed! Wake up! Wake up! Yu Yi stepped forward and slapped him in the face, but the other party did not have the slightest trace of awakening. Oh, come to think of it, I just heard those guys say that this guy seems to have eaten some kind of sleepiness......"
"Let me come." The silver-haired woman did not have Yu Yi's patience, and the way she woke people up was not as gentle as Yu Yi's. The blue magic array flashed, and the thick, white cold ice chips fell on the brown-haired man's face.
Under such stimulation, the man was able to defeat the power of the medicine a little and transformed. His lips trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Hey, are you awake?" Yu Yi saw that the man had regained consciousness, so he stepped forward again and dragged him up. "I ask you, will you sail a boat? You'd better not say ......"
Before Yu Yi finished speaking, he heard the other party reply in a daze: "No...... Will ......"
"I'll go, this shame." He cursed, rudely threw the man down, got up and said to the two women, "Whew, this is a bit of a big problem." ”
Now there are only a few people on the ship who have no knowledge of navigation, let alone the Seven Divine Arches, and whether they can go ashore again is a matter of whether they can go ashore again. However, Yu Yi touched Bai Siling's head, he was not used to seeing the elf's sad face: "It's okay, there will always be a way." Let me think again. ”
"I can sail ......"
Just as the three of them were about to leave the cabin, a faint voice came into their ears. The voice, they could be sure it wasn't from the brown-haired man on the boat, but ......
The voice seemed to come from above, and the three of them looked up in unison in unison. In the vent above their heads, half of their faces were exposed, and they were also looking at them.
"I'm going, is it a human or a ghost? Get out! Seeing such a guy coldly, Yu Yi couldn't help but tighten his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"People...... I'm a human ......" Seeing the three people outside in an attacking posture, the male voice inside the ventilation pipe immediately clarified in a panic. "I ...... I, wait until I crawl out. ”
After confirming that there was no danger, Yu Yi let down his guard. "Crawl? Save it, don't bother with it. With that, he picked up his great sword and threw it at the ventilation pipe.
The fragile planks were simply vulnerable to the greatsword, and could easily be shattered. Taking advantage of the situation, the young man hiding in it also fell down with the sawdust.
He landed heavily on the ground, and it took him a long time to come to his senses. He sat up and swept away the debris from his body, looking up at the three people who were staring at him. "I'll sail ......," he repeated.
Before that, Yu Yi was even more curious, where did this young man come from. "You're in line with them?" He asked, gesturing at the brown-haired man on the bed.
"They? No, no, no! The young man with a scar on his face hurriedly waved his hand and denied, "How can I be a pirate?" ”
"They're pirates? That's right, this identity is in line with the dead fat man before! Yu Yi muttered to himself, and asked, "What about you?" And how did you end up on a pirate ship? Could it be that you want to be a hero who exterminates pirates? ”
"A pirate's ship? No! This is the boat on our town! At this, the young man stood up from the ground, and his face with a slanted scar became a little indignant: "These damned pirates have plundered our town and kidnapped me on board. I also just escaped from the utility room in the afternoon. ”
Originally, he only wanted to ask the young man's origin, but Yu Yi, who didn't plan to delve into it, couldn't help but be curious after hearing the other party's words: "Wait... Wait a minute! Wait a minute! What did you say? These pirates kidnapped you? So you're Mayor Mare's son? ”
The young man shook his head honestly.
"That is, your family is rich?"
"Do you think so?" The young man scratched his short brittle hair, then tugged at the headband that accompanied his forehead and asked rhetorically. In the town, it's usually only people who go out to sea and are busy fishing.
And Yu Yi also judged this from the other party's dark skin, the rich children should at least be like Xiang Yang.
"Then they kidnap you, should they ......" Halfway through speaking, Yu Yi couldn't bear to continue, unlike the silver-haired woman who still had a cold face, Bai Siling's face was a little unnatural when she heard this. She had often heard that some male elves would also be bought by human men at high prices, and thinking of this, she looked at the young man in front of her, and couldn't help but feel more sympathy in her eyes.
"Damn! Bastard, what are you thinking?! Not really! The young man read something from the other man's expression, and roared angrily, "It's the daughter of this group of pirate leaders who has taken a fancy to me, so they kidnapped me and wanted to take me to Devilclaw Island!" ”
"Oh," Yu Yi nodded lightly when he heard that the truth was different from his guess, but he now understood why the previous group of Wildfire City pursuers had stopped pursuing. "The daughter of the pirate leader has taken a fancy to you? You still know the pirate's daughter...... But with that said, a large part of the reason why I feel that your town was being plundered is because of you. ”
Seeing that the young man's face sank a little, Yu Yi immediately suppressed his voice and changed his words: "Okay, don't talk about that nonsense." Didn't you say you knew how to sail a boat? Go, take the helm. ”
"Well, if nothing else, we should be back in Fishy Harbor tomorrow morning." The young man rubbed his nose with his fingers and said.
"Hey! Don't get me wrong, Scarface, we're going to the Arch of the Seven Gods. Yu Yi put his hand on the young man's shoulder and said word by word.
"Arch of the Seven Gods? That's not the same direction you're sailing in now...... Wait, you're crazy, aren't you? It's the first week of the Forbidden Sea Moon! Are you going to cross this sea of blue blood at this time? ”
Hearing that the young man with scarface had indeed mastered navigation, the big stone in Yu Yi's heart finally let go. "Collect it, put it away, we don't fish, don't make such a fuss."
"Then aren't you afraid of encountering sea wild dogs?"
"Big fool, I've seen a lot of wild dogs, what is there to be afraid of. We've cleaned up the stegosaurus before, so just drive the boat obediently. Yu Yi laughed and patted the young man on the shoulder, "We'll pay you a lot of money later." ”
"You don't know what a sea dog is? Except for the mad pirates, no one will choose to go to sea at this time! ”
Seeing that the stunned look on the young man's face faded away without his promise at all, Yu Yi couldn't help but turn his head to look at the silver-haired woman.
The silver-haired woman gently stroked her silver hair and calmly replied, "Is it the first week of the forbidden sea?" That's not really good for sailing. During this time, the Blue Blood Sea is usually accompanied by rain, terrifying storms, and sometimes huge submarine whirlpools. Some of the sea people called this disaster the sea dogs, because they went crazy like wild dogs, and they didn't care about anything but devoured them. ”
After knowing the truth, Yu Yi's fearless courage of the ignorant disappeared of course, he was a landlubber. "I'll go! Didn't say it sooner? Young man, it's up to you, let's hurry back to Xinghaiga, don't run into that...... Wait, on the window, is that raindrop? ”
Only then did a few people realize that as the sea breeze blew, more and more raindrops hit the glass......
