Chapter 16: The Tempest

When you are at your most proud, God will always pour you a basin of cold water. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBecause that's how his value will be reflected.

"Boom !!"

The boat shook a few times, and the mahjong tiles fell to the ground with a 'crackling' sound.

The goblin Francesca was about to turn the tables, but he didn't expect this to happen, and roared, "Ah!! No one is allowed to leave?! The pirates in the cabin fell silent, but the ship still shook.

Suddenly the door of the cabin opened, and a salty drizzle rushed in, and in came a bearded dwarf wearing a skull pirate hat, this man was Captain Stygat, and he was very angry when he saw that the pirates were still entertaining, and said:

"The wind is blowing?! All of them will return to their respective posts for me?! ”

"Don't go, don't go?!" Goblin Francesca shouted to stop. He wanted to get his roots back, but this was not the right time.

Captain Stygart grabbed the goblin Francesca by the hand and said, "First mate, take care of your people." ”

The wind suddenly increased. So the whole crew mobilized and lowered the sail together, and settled everything on board, so that the ship could withstand the strong wind and anchor safely.

Zhang Shikang looked at the frightened appearance of the pirates and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Ogre Lulu was originally a cute chubby one-horned ogre, but when he encountered this kind of thing, he also roared, he was frightened, and said, "I don't know either." ”

In the evening, the sea rolls up. The bow of the pirate ship plunged into the water several times and drove a lot of water. On one or two occasions, it was thought that the anchor had been removed, so Captain Stygart ordered the spare anchor to be lowered. In this way, two anchors were laid in the bow and the anchor ropes were lowered to the maximum limit.

At this time, the storm was terrifying, and Zhang Shikang saw that even the pirates had a frightened look on their faces. Although Captain Stygart was cautious and tried to protect his ship, when he entered and exited his cabin and passed by his cabin, Zhang Shikang heard him whisper to himself several times, "O Titan, have mercy on us!" We won't survive! We're all going to be finished! He said a lot of that kind of thing.

In the initial turmoil, Zhang Shikang was at a loss for what to do, just lying motionless in his cabin - his cabin was in the bow of the ship, and Zhang Shikang could not describe his mood at that time.

Initially, Zhang Shikang did not repent as he did the first time, but became insensitive. He had thought that the pain of death had passed, and that this storm would pass as much as the last.

But he kept hearing people say, "We're going to be finished." Zhang Shikang felt scared and wanted to go out to breathe. He stepped out of his cabin and looked out, and saw desolation; He had never seen such a terrible scene before: huge waves at sea, rushing towards the pirate ship every three or four minutes. Looking in all directions, the situation is even more miserable. "Click"

At this moment, Zhang Shikang watched the flagpole break and was smashing towards Dapol. He shouted:

"Danger!"

It's too late, it's too soon. He stepped forward and pushed to Dapol, and the two rolled together.

Zhang Shikang was feeling that this Dapol's body was a little special, feeling soft, and was looking at him strangely.

Dapol's face turned red and said, "I said, how long have you been pressing?" ”

"Oh, I'm sorry." Zhang Shikang stood up and watched as the flagpole had caused a certain degree of damage to the hull.

First mate Nizlix and sailor Shaks begged the captain to cut off the foremast; Of course, Captain Stygart was not willing to do this.

Captain Stygart said, "The Titans are on board, and you want to destroy my ship?" ”

But the sailor Shaks protested: "If you don't agree to cut off the foremast, the ship will sink." When the time comes, we will all see your Titan God! ”

In this way, Captain Stygart had no choice but to agree. But as soon as the foremast of the ship was cut down, the mainmast swayed in the wind and lost control, and the ship shook violently, so they had to cut the mainmast as well. This leaves only an empty deck.

Anyone can imagine Zhang Shikang's mood at that time. Because he was only a young man who was sailing for the first time, he had been scared half to death by a small storm not long ago, not to mention that he had really encountered a big storm this time.

At this moment, the storm was blowing more and more fiercely, and even the sailors themselves admitted that they had never encountered such a powerful storm in their lives.

Although the Blackwater pirate ship is strong, it has a deep draft due to the heavy cargo, and it has been rocking violently in the water. I only heard the sailors shouting from time to time that the ship was sinking.

First mate Nizlix said to the goblins beside him, "Francesca, go down to the bilge and check it out." ”

Then the wind and the waves became more ferocious, and he saw what he rarely saw: the captain, the boatswain, and some of the more intelligent men prayed incessantly, and they all felt that the ship was in danger of sinking at any moment.

Soon there was a scream from the bottom of the boat, and Francesca ran up and shouted: "The bottom of the boat is leaking, and the water in the bilge has overflowed my height." ”

When Zhang Shikang heard the leak at the bottom of the boat, he felt as if his heart had suddenly stopped beating;

"My mom, my sister."

He suddenly felt that he could not support it anymore, and he was about to collapse in the cabin.

Dapol supported the pillar Zhang Shikang and said, "Zhang, we have to go to the bilge to pump water." ”

"Pumping?!"

"Hopefully, it's still too late."

Zhang Shikang unconsciously followed Dapol to the bilge, watching the sailors pumping hard, which is a primitive hand-pressed pump. Because he didn't want the ship to sink, Zhang Shikang worked very hard.

Zhang Shikang continued to pump water, but more and more water entered the bilge. He sensed that the ship would obviously sink soon. Because there were fewer and fewer sailors in the cabin, it was clear that the experienced pirates had long since seen that the ship could not be saved, and hurried out of this place of right and wrong.

"Stop pumping, Zhang, let's get out of here." Dapol grabbed Zhang Shikang's hand and ran towards the deck.

When I got to the deck, it was already a mess. There were originally few lifeboats on board, and there were many crew members, so naturally there were not enough, which naturally caused a rush.

"Let go?!"

"Come down to Lao Tzu."

"If you don't let go, Lao Tzu will chop you."

"You think I'm scared of you."

Situations like this continue on deck, with the victor boarding the lifeboat and the loser screaming and falling overboard.

They are pirates, not men and women, and only big fists make sense at such times.

"Dapor, come here, there's a place here."

Pastor Simon recruited towards Dapor. After Dapol saw it, he pulled Zhang Shikang and ran towards the starboard side.

Simon saw that Dapol had brought Zhang Shikang with him, and said a little embarrassed: "There is only one place here?" ”

Zhang Shikang was a little scared and said, "Can't we squeeze in?" ”
