Chapter 172: Quietly get on the boat

"Hey! Good evening, both of you! Wang Hao was very happy to see the two, turned over and jumped down from the second floor, and came to the two.

"Yo, good evening!" The decent man waved at Wang Hao, and said hello, "I have to be amazing, Wang, your skills are still so vigorous!" By the way, you're really not going to join my fleet? I'm a great pirate with over twenty plundering ships - Benjamin Hornigold! ”

Wang Hao waved his hand, "Thank you very much for the invitation." But you know, my purpose as a pirate is to be able to live a free, unfettered life, so I won't join someone else's pirate group. ”

"Haha!" The beard wiped a handful of his mustache sprinkled with wine, and laughed loudly, "The king's purpose is the legendary fountain of youth!" It's like those nobles who live in the palace, and they have the luxury of having an endless lifespan! ”

When Wang Hao first came here, he got acquainted with these people in the tavern, and after drinking once, he half-jokingly asked others about the news of the 'Fountain of Youth'. I didn't expect to ask so casually, and it was remembered by these people until now.

However, there are countless sailors who appear in the tavern every year and claim to have mastered the 'route to such and such a place'. Moreover, these pirates are all people who lick blood with knives, and they don't know what will happen tomorrow today, even if they give them endless life, they don't know if they will die at sea one day, so they don't take it seriously at all.

Especially when the pirates asked Wang Hao what clues he had, Wang Hao just patted the empty pocket and said, "Nothing, I just know that there is such a legend." But if you can find it, it will definitely be able to exchange it for a huge fortune! ”

So this later became a stalk for acquaintances to ridicule Wang Hao.

"That's just an old legend, king. It's like the legendary Golden Township and Observatory, I've only heard of it, but no one has seen it. You're going to die of this heart. At this moment, another man sat down with a bottle, and also sat down at the table.

The newcomer was dressed in a scarlet coat, with a neatly groomed beard and long black hair tied in a ponytail with a strap at the back of his head, completely different from the average pirate.

The man's name was Samus Bellamy, and everyone called him 'Black Sam' or 'The Pirate Prince', and he was also a pirate captain.

However, his style was much gentler than that of other pirates, often plundering property without harming his captives, and even giving his old ships to prisoners after capturing them, allowing them to escape. That's how he got his title of 'Pirate Prince'.

"Okay, don't say anything else." Benjamin waved his hand, and the people next to him spread out in all directions, and there was a noticeable vacuum around the tables of several people, which seemed out of place in the tavern environment.

Benjamin then said to Wang Hao: "I originally wanted to send someone to find you, but you happen to be here, so I don't have to make another trip." ”

"King, there is now a way for you to get a ship, and also to deliver the sailors. It's just that it takes a little risk, I don't know if you dare to do it? ”

These words successfully attracted Wang Hao's attention.

The news that Benjamin brought to Wang Hao, you don't have to think about it, you know that it must be where to rob a ship.

"Hmph, of course you dare!" Wang Hao said with a disdainful face: "People are born to take risks!" Even if you don't go to sea and lie on a woman's belly every day, if an earthquake and tsunami come one day, wouldn't it be the same to finish the game?! I'll do it, just say it! ”

"Ha, that's good!" When Benjamin heard Wang Hao say this, he turned his head to the bearded man and said, "Tiqi, you can tell Wang the rest." ”

After speaking, he ignored the crowd, got up and walked a few steps, hugged a woman, and turned to go upstairs.

The beard, that is, Titch shrugged his shoulders, pouted and said impatiently, "Well, since it's my turn." Brother, come with me. ”

The two of them left the tavern and walked all the way to the sea.

When he came to the dock, Titch took out a monocular from his waist, handed it to Wang Hao's hand, pointed in the direction and said, "Look there." ”

"Uh-huh, I see." Wang Hao raised the binoculars and followed Titch's hand to see that it was a sloop parked not far from the sea.

Titch continued, "See that old guy on the boat? He was a French slave trader and privateer named Adam Bartley, and the Slupp ship belonged to him. ”

The Slupp is a dhow that is the smallest vessel capable of safely sailing across the oceans. It is a perfect illustration of the pirate principle of "outrun me and outrun me, outrun me" pirate principle, which is to quickly catch up with an escaped merchant ship and force it to surrender, and to sail towards a shallow harbor as soon as a more powerful anti-piracy warship emerges from the horizon from the top of the mast. It is a type of ship that is popular with pirates and smugglers.

"We've been following him for a long time. The latest news is that due to the limited space in the port, he will only be able to go ashore tomorrow to resupply and buy a group of slaves from Port Royal. ”

"Could it be that you want to ......"

"That's right! My friend, if you're brave enough, we'll put you in slavery, and the rest is up to you! Titch interrupted Wang Hao's words with a sneer, "But I want to remind you that there are 40 sailors on that ship......

"It's a crazy plan, but I like it."

"Then let's talk about it first, you want a ship, we want goods!"

"No problem!" Wang Hao raised the telescope in his hand again, looked at the ship that was about to belong to him in the distance, and raised the corners of his mouth.

That night, Benjamin looked at Wang Hao, who had no long clothes in front of him, and couldn't help but ask again: "It's too late for you to regret it now, and finally ask you again, are you sure you want to implement the plan?" ”

"Of course!" Wang Hao said firmly.

Immediately, Wang Hao was chained hand and foot and sent into a dirty and smelly warehouse.

Inside the warehouse, there are many people who are also locked, all of them are men, and there are people of all colors. When Wang Hao was escorted in, some people looked up expressionlessly, and then lowered their heads expressionlessly. But more often than not, it is completely indifferent to the outside world and does not react at all.

After a long time, Wang Hao had become accustomed to the stench here, and the door of the warehouse was suddenly opened, and several slave traders with fierce faces walked in with whips, followed by Adam Bartley and his followers.

"Is that the group? It looks so thin, don't buy it back and die in a few days! Adam Bartley said with a handkerchief in his hand covering his mouth and nose.

"Of course not." A slave trader with a whip walked straight to the nearest slave, hammered the slave in the chest, and then broke the slave's mouth, and offered the treasure as if it were about to be delivered to Adam Bartley's eyes, "Look, what a strong slave! Look at this tooth mouth again, absolutely healthy! ”

"Well, of course, it's healthy, but it's also going to be able to work." The old man didn't seem to want to stay here any longer, frowning, with a look of disgust, "Forget it, that's it, hurry up and load the ship." ”
