Volume 3 The End of the World Section 2 The Dinner Party
For hundreds of years, the waters north of the town of Luoyan have been called the "Black Sea" or "Dark Sea" by fishermen. The name comes from the fact that there are a large number of blackback piranhas living in this area.
According to scientists' speculation, the ancestor of the blackback piranha was the common crucian carp. They have jet-black scales, 30 to 50 centimeters long, extremely sharp teeth, a strong bite in their mouths, and an unusually keen sense of smell for blood. If someone is unfortunate enough to fall into the water and has a small wound on their body. Then, in five minutes, thousands of black backs will sweep in from all directions. In a matter of seconds, the man who had fallen overboard would be reduced to a sleek white skeleton and would be buried in the sea, not taking a single piece of flesh with him.
Blackback piranhas are shallow sea creatures that feed in groups, often appearing in groups that dye large areas of the sea black, hence the name of the Black Sea. In addition, the scales of black-backed piranhas are extremely tough, and many fishermen use fishing lines to whip them up and wear them into armor. This armor is so tough and light that it is known as the "black-backed fish scale armor".
Every winter, there is less and less food in the shallow sea. Because many schools of fish have left the Black Sea and migrated to the warmer south with the last warm current. The blackback piranha, on the other hand, is a territorial social creature, and each community has a fixed living area and does not migrate with other fish groups. As a result, blackback piranhas are craving blood and food more than ever during this season. If they never find their prey, the blackback piranhas will bite each other. The danger of this creature, which can even be used as food by its companions, can be seen.
Just now the boss asked the traveler if he was crazy, but in fact, there was no malicious intent, but he had been in Luoyan Town for a long time, and he knew the horror of the Black Sea better than most people.
"At this time of year, no one wants to go to sea?" The traveler asked.
"Only a madman would be willing, of course, there is no shortage of madmen here, but there should be few people who are so crazy that they cross the Black Sea in winter." The boss persuaded earnestly, "Young man, listen to your voice, I estimate that you are not very old, at most you are in your early twenties, listen to the uncle's words, if you want to take risks, you have to wait for spring to go, big deal, you live here for a long time, I will give you a discount, how about half price." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, I'll think about it again." The traveler replied.
At this time, the boss suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Young man......"
"Huh?" The traveler stopped his knife and fork and looked at the barkeeper.
"Do you want a woman at night?" The boss whispered. The traveler shook his head faintly and continued to eat with his head down. Seeing this, the boss didn't say much, got up silently, returned to the bar and wiped the wine glass again......
At nine o'clock in the evening, the traveler finished dinner and pushed the locomotive into the guest room on the second floor of the "giant wooden barrel".
Half an hour later, a fat girl with heavy makeup walked into the bar. She pushed the door so hard that the half of the wooden door slammed against the wall with a "bang" that almost scared the boss who was shaking the barrel to jump.
"Lilith, it's so early tonight." The boss saw the person coming clearly and asked with a smile.
"There's almost no money to eat, so it's not early!" The fat girl said in a rough voice. She has big shoulders and a round waist, thick hands and feet, and a thick neck, in short, everything on her body is one size bigger than others. Although she is very fat, her appearance is quite passable, her skin is fair, and she feels a little baby fat, and she has a different style after looking at it for a long time. It's just that her makeup is too thick, her eyeliner is too dark, and her lipstick is too deep, which makes her look a little uglier than usual.
"Don't say that, you're our red card, if you don't have money to eat, won't we starve to death." The owner flattered to.
"Look at your dead face." The fat girl pinched her lotus finger, pushed the boss, and scolded with a smile, "Even if you pat the old lady's ass, the old lady still has to take your money." ”
"Why don't you get a discount, how about I invite my eldest sister to drink?" The boss proposed.
"Save it, you still keep your horse pee wine for yourself...... Hmmmm......" In the middle of her words, the boss hurriedly covered her mouth, wrinkled a bitter gourd face, and whispered, "Big sister, be quiet, let those pirates hear, can I still live?" ”
As an old Oriental slang saying, "Don't talk about people during the day, don't talk about ghosts at night." ”
Just as the boss's voice fell, the wooden door of the bar made a loud "bump", and then several strong men rushed in, and soon the small bar was crowded.
A few seconds later, the brawny men made way of a passage, and a slightly chubby middle-aged man stepped forward, pulled out a large pistol from his waist and slapped it at the bar! Then he stared at the boss's eyes with a fierce face.
This is the captain of the "Ichthyosaurus", Xia Yihan, a very fierce, twenty-tensive, and one hundred shameless pirate!
The boss looked at each other with a forced composure, and the air seemed to freeze. The whole bar was silent, as if you could hear the sound of pins falling on the ground. The boss felt that he was about to collapse, and he didn't know what the other party wanted to do, and the cold sweat of the bean was slipping down drop by drop.
"Hahaha......" the captain laughed without warning, and opened his arms to the barkeeper. The boss hurriedly responded, and in the next second, they hugged each other like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere became lively.
"Old rules! Wine, meat! ”
"Okay."
As soon as the boss returned to the back kitchen, he immediately collapsed by the door and almost fainted. Dealing with this group of pirates is even more dangerous than being a mercenary back then.
At this time, in the bar, there was a different conversation.
"Scare the pig so that what he makes will taste a little better." The captain said with a smug face.
"The boss is wise!" Wu Congyun admired both pious and serious.
"But, I suddenly wanted to kill him." The captain's face changed, and he said fiercely with a fierce glare.
Wu Congyun immediately took out his pistol and was about to get up to carry out the order.
The captain pondered for a moment, then hammered his hand, as if remembering something very important, and said, "Let's kill after dinner, or no one will cook." ”
"Foresight!" Wu Congyun put away the gun and stretched out his thumb to praise. The fat cat sitting on the side rolled his eyes involuntarily and cast a disdainful glance at Wu Congyun.
"First mate, do you think I'm right?" Wu Congyun asked at the right time.
"You're right." The fat cat straightened up and replied seriously. As long as the question of the captain is involved, he will not dare to deny it in any way.
Listening to the flattery of the two right-hand men, the captain laughed. At this moment, he saw a woman out of the corner of his eye, and his eyes lit up. Then he puffed up his chest and took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and walked over with his graceful steps.
"What do you call this beauty?" The captain asked with a smile on his face.
The fat girl snorted softly, opened her big hand and fanned the wind, and turned her back to look away. She wasn't afraid of the vicious pirate leader at all.
The captain walked around to the other side and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I took the liberty of it." The fat girl glanced at him with slanted eyes, then snorted again, and raised her head to look at the ceiling.
"This girl, has anyone told you that your angry look is particularly charming." The captain flattered, and his flattering expression looked very obscene.
Seeing that the leader lost his integrity in front of the woman, the accountant and the first mate had a rare chat.
"This ...... This woman is so fat and so ugly, you say that this is ......," Wu Congyun whispered.
"I guess I don't want to spend money, he said that he never spends a penny on picking up girls, and it's all upside down by women." The first mate replied in a whisper.
"Why did I follow such a person...... Wu Congyun sighed.
"You mean the boss is wrong, okay, I'll tell the boss in a moment, see how he cleans you up." "You ......" The alliance between the two fell apart and fell apart in less than ten seconds.
After a while, amid the noise of the sailors, the barkeeper came out of the back kitchen with a whole roast pig on his shoulder. The bar fell silent, and all eyes were on the boss, as if some big man had appeared. The boss knew in his heart that only at this moment was he supreme in the hearts of this group of pirates. Of course, after a while, they will forget who he is? What is it for......
Under the gaze of everyone, the boss racked the roast pig, handed over a sharp knife, and asked the captain of the "Ichthyosaurus" to divide the meat. At this time, the captain will say two sentences to summarize the efforts and gains of this time.
"Thank you...... Thanks ......" The captain was holding a knife in one hand and a fat girl in the other (he had secretly stuffed a silver coin before), and he couldn't remember what to say.
"Poseidon, the god of the sea." The accountant whispered a reminder from the side.
"Thank you Poseidon for giving us...... Well? Why should I thank him? I want to thank myself and thank myself! I earned myself a sumptuous dinner! The pirate leader raised his arms in excitement and shouted! The knife in his hand almost slashed the bar owner's neck.
"Thank you, Chief!" "Long live the summer head." "Thank you for the delicious food!" "The head is God!" The crowd shouted slogans in a mess, and they could say anything in order to eat meat as soon as possible.
And just like that, the pirate's carnival began......
At this time, there was a lot of noise downstairs, but it was quiet upstairs.
An hour earlier, a traveler had pushed a motorcycle into the room. As soon as he entered, he immediately checked around and set small alarm traps in the cracks of the doors, windows, etc. Then he took out the quilt from the cabinet, rolled it into a long strip, and covered it with a blanket to create the illusion that someone was sleeping in the bed.
After doing all this, the traveler turned off the lights and curled up in the corner to rest. At this moment, a mechanically synthesized girl's voice suddenly sounded in the darkness.
[Captain, Alice can keep vigil for you around the clock, please rest in peace.] ]
"Hmm." The traveler stretched and lifted the hood of his robe, revealing a young face. This traveler is the iron slag on the run. A month and a half ago, he killed the fourth young master of the Lei Ling family in the thirteenth silver city, and then fled all the way north. At present, the entire Northern Wilderness Continent is offering a bounty on his head, and the bounty is as high as thousands of gold coins. Therefore, he is careful to avoid being detected wherever he goes.
[After this period of data collection, the captain's combat effectiveness assessment has been completed, and Alice requests a debrief.] ]
"Say it, but be quiet."
[Yes, my captain]
[All important data will be sidestepped by the voice description and displayed directly on the screen]
As soon as the voice ended, the main screen at the front of the car lit up, displaying rows of data......
