Page 38 True Hope
In the next few days, Chen Senran spent the next few days in peace.
There were no accidents, no crises.
As the sun rose and the moon set, the Abyss went on its own shipment, Planck occasionally had a drink with him, he took the little fish-man to a big meal every day, and sat for a while with spirits and gunpowder in the evening, and Draeven was finally able to get up and walk.
Until the fourth day.
Clear.
No wind.
The first day of the Sea Emperor's Festival.
The whole city is enveloped in a festive atmosphere, the streets are full of people wearing shell costumes and their faces covered in festive sea mud walking around, shops displaying special goods on the day of the Sea Emperor Festival, all kinds of usually expensive fish are sold at very low prices, and some shops are even decorated with exaggerated skeleton teeth of unknown sea creatures in order to attract customers, with blue and shining rune magic lamps, swaggering in front of the store, showing the depth of the store's heritage.
In the central fountain square, Bilgewater folk songs with a strong maritime style are played by the oldest bagpipe band in the whole of Blue Flame Island, from morning to evening.
The Sea Emperor Festival, as the name suggests, is to pay tribute to the Sea Emperor.
Legend has it that in the incomparably long ago, when the gods were still living in the sea, there were terrible creatures that invaded the great endless sea, in order to save the creatures of the sea from disaster, the god of the sea, the sea emperor stepped forward, he held the powerful sea emperor trident and the terrible unknown creatures fought for a full fifteen days, on the night of the fifteenth day, he finally defeated the invading enemy, but he himself was attacked by the renegade dragon shark because of exhaustion, his left hand was bitten, the powerful sea emperor trident fell, he was powerless to fight again, The once powerful and invincible body sank to the bottom of the sea and became one with the sea. And his weapon, the Sea Emperor Trident, was deeply inserted into the bottom of the sea with his most stubborn will, forming the original Blue Flame Island, which forever controlled the lifeblood of the entire sea.
In order to thank the great Emperor of the Sea for giving them abundant land, a grand ceremony is held every year in December on the day when the moon is at its fullest, to pay tribute to the once great god.
"Why don't you go for a walk? It's a good day. Planck stepped out of his captain's room. Stood in the bow of the ship.
From this vantage point, you can faintly see the magic lights gradually lit up on the street not far away.
It's already dark.
The pirates of the Abyss have long since taken to the corners of Blue Flame Island to party.
The only ones left are the newcomer Chen Senran, the unaccepted monster little fishman Fitz, and the eternal unfathomable king of pirates, Planck.
"Aren't you the same?" Chen Senran patted the side of the ship, which had already begun to freeze, and breathed in the air around him.
Tonight is not particularly cold, perhaps it is the heat of the festival that sets off the cool night.
"I've seen so many nights like this that I might have looked forward to it as a kid, but now. Somewhat tired of it. Planck smiled and touched his eyebrows, his face in his thirties was already soaked with too much wind and frost, "Let's go, young man, you are different, you should walk around when you are young, otherwise." You're going to miss out on a lot of things. ”
"Did you miss it?" Chen Senran repeated these three words in a low voice, he didn't know what Lu Dao had in mind.
"yes. Besides, this kid next to you really wants to play. Planck glanced at Fitz, the little fish-man who had not dared to speak much.
Even though the Fish-Man had been living on the Abyss for some time, it seemed to be inherently unsuited to people, and no one wanted to accept it.
"I ...... I didn't. The little fishman looked at Planck's gentle smile, but still replied with difficulty.
"Go ahead. Go play, like Miss Doom's tavern, you must not have been there yet, right? Planck stopped looking at the little fish-man, and continued, "Just bring me a message." You're going to love that. ”
Miss Doom again......
Planck: This is ......
After a few days of precipitation, after Chen Senran learned some about the situation on Blue Flame Island, he no longer simply thought that Planck just wanted to soak Miss Doom, judging from the recent situation, maybe ......
"All right, my captain, obey." has said this, if Chen Senran refuses again, it will be too faceless.
And, in fact, there is no point in staying on the ship.
"Let's go, little friend, I know you can't wait." Chen Senran patted the little fishman Fitz's head and said goodbye to Planck, "Hey, Captain, I wish you a wonderful night." ”
"Have a wonderful night." Planck said the same with a smile.
After struggling through the bustling crowd and struggling to make his way in front of the shops that are popular even at night, Chen Senran spent half a full magic hour finally finding the address that Miss Doom had told her earlier with the help of Fitz, the little fishman.
West End, Call Girl.
A tavern with the same name as her ship, the ambiguous pink magic light outlined a seductive arc in the night, and the rich aroma of rum wafted out of the door that opened slightly, mixed with a faint feminine scent.
To Chen Senran's surprise, he didn't hear too much prodigal laughter and delicate moanings, and all that came to his ears was the faint whispers of women, but it was more tempting than those brothels with sloppy buttocks and wavy laughter.
"There's really a set." Chen Senran sniffed the not-so-annoying smell in the air, and pushed open the door that was not tightly closed.
"Oh, who's coming?" Before Chen Senran could say anything, a charming voice sounded with a smile.
"My dear Jack, what is the wind that has brought you here?" Miss Doom seemed to be waiting for Chen Senran, and when Chen Senran stepped into the call girl with one foot, she walked towards him.
"Oh, it's a westerly wind today, and I think it might be bigger here." Chen Senran easily dodged Miss Doom's warm embrace, pulled out a chair and sat down, "Sit down, little friend, you won't be scared, right?" His last sentence was addressed to the little fishman.
"I didn't ...... Not. The little fish-man was a little frightened, and he looked at the dimly lit tavern, and at the beautiful women, all towards it. No, it was a little overwhelmed to throw a curious look at them.
It was the first time it had been looked at by so many women with eyes that weren't disgusted.
"Jack, you don't really look like a blind man." Miss Doom wasn't embarrassed at all because Chen Senran didn't accept her hug, she smiled and sat down, snapping her fingers at the bartender. "Hey, Mina, three glasses of flaming red lips, oh kid, can you have a drink? After all, Bilgewater doesn't have a prohibition law. ”
"Yes...... Yes. The little fishman Fitz nodded awkwardly, and he didn't even dare to lift his head at the eyes of the women.
"Tell me, why are you here today? Not afraid? "Miss Doom, although she knows that Chen Senran can't see it, she still puts on a posture that is extremely tempting." Or have you figured it out and think that the Sea Emperor Festival should get rid of your virginity? The last sentence was said almost close to Chen Senran's ear.
The sweet aroma that erupted from her delicate little mouth was something that a man would never be able to stand as long as he was a man.
"I want, do you give? Miss Virgin? Chen Senran took a glass of bright red wine from the tray that was being sent and laughed.
"You ......" Miss Doom froze for a second as if someone had pierced something, and then continued to laugh. Here you go. ”
He laughed loudly, as if he was hiding something.
"Is there a place for privacy? I want to get down to business with you. Chen Senran chuckled and took a sip of wine. The flaming red lips with a domineering name are surprisingly light.
"Oh ha Miss Doom rarely flinched a little, perhaps frightened by the seriousness in Chen Senran's tone.
"I want to try." Chen Senran placed the bland and tasteless wine on the table and looked symbolically at Miss Doom, his black blindfold had a special sense of mystery in the dim light.
"Haha Come if you want to. Miss Doom probably for the sake of face, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and stood up and began to walk towards the stairs.
Of course, Chen Senran followed, and easily pulled up the little fishman Fitz.
"You ......" Miss Doom turned her head to realize the fact.
"Haven't the three of them tried?" Chen Senran continued to laugh and said.
"You ......" Miss Doom choked again, her face flushing imperceptibly. Luckily, the lights were dim.
Otherwise, Miss Doom's blush alone could make headlines in Bill Gewort the next day.
Treading on the oak staircase, Chen Senran followed Miss Doom to the second floor.
The second floor was a place with many rooms, but Miss Doom didn't open any of them, she walked straight to a transparent magic crystal glass door that could see the night outside, and pushed it open.
The next moment, the noisy and lively night and the not too cold wind poured into Chen Senran's ears.
A rooftop lies in Chen Senran's spiritual world.
"Come on, little ghost." Miss Doom greeted in an unfriendly tone.
"Aren't you afraid of catching a cold there?" Chen Senran continued to laugh.
"Okay, little ghost, I lost to you, I guess you didn't come just to tease me, right?" Miss Doom finally lost the battle after forbearance in every possible way, and she also figured out that Chen Senran, who was unwilling to contact her before, must have something to do today.
"Okay, get down to business." Chen Senran also put away the cynicism on his face, and said seriously, "Someone wants to have dinner with you." ”
"Who?" Miss Doom asked unhappily, with an expression on her face that if you say it's you, I'll kill you.
It's a pity that Chen Senran can't see it.
"My boss, Captain Planck." Chen Senran was also refreshed at this time.
"No, he's dreaming." Miss Doom sneered.
"It's up to you whether you go or not, I'm just in charge of talking, but I suggest you go anyway, he seems to be ......" Chen Senran paused to say something more.
But just then, a horse-drawn carriage drove under the rooftop.
Faintly, Chen Senran heard a girl's voice coming from inside:
"I wish he could go with me."
An ordinary sentence, but I don't know what Lu Dao is doing, it suddenly exploded in Chen Senran's mind.
It's like some kind of seal has been broken.
At that moment, there was only one thought left in his mind-
Catch up. (To be continued......)
