Section 8 Flickering

On the way back, Captain Xia Yihan opened the money bag and counted it, there was 62 gold in it, plus the original 107 gold, now there is 169 gold, and there is still 71 gold left to pick up the boat. The captain has already figured out that he can get another 50 gold back, and the remaining 21 gold will be lost......

Although Ling Tianqi was a little difficult to deal with, the Ling family had three sisters. A big brother, no matter how he is, can't resist the attacks of the three younger sisters in turn! What's more, it's just 21 gold, no matter how stupid Ling Tianqi is, it is impossible to embarrass his three sisters for 21 gold. Just when the captain was full of confidence, the accountant Wu Congyun said something that made his jaw drop.

"Your hairpin with dark blue pearls and serrated tiger shark bones could buy several boats." The accountant said bitterly.

"What! Why didn't you say it earlier! The captain was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground, and he grabbed the accountant's arm and shook it desperately, spitting saliva all over the other party's face.

"I just saw it, you gave it away, I don't know when you got this thing." The accountant said with a depressed face.

"That's right, where did this thing come from......" The captain stopped, frowned, racked his brains for a long time, and finally slapped his head, and finally remembered, "It's Xiao Xingyue's!" โ€

The accountant shook his head, and as soon as he heard the name, he knew which female victim it was.

"Who is Xiao Xingyue?" The accountant couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The daughter of a certain boss, I remember that the HH company seems to belong to their family, it is the largest manufacturer of mechanical parts in the Northern Wilderness Continent, and that ...... is everywhere."

"Gas station." The accountant reminded.

"Yes, it's a gas station."

"You...... How did you meet? "The accountant has never figured out what is so good about this pirate leader, why is there so many messy adventures, why are they all good girls, how can they fall in love with him.

"We don't know each other, and that was many years ago." The captain explained, "She was very young at the time, probably a few years old, and I was working as a janitor at HH. โ€

"And then."

"Swapped for lollipops." After a while, the captain added, "It's just a copper plate." After saying that, he laughed, and the smile was as bad as it was.

A few minutes later, the two of them returned to where they had just been, squatting beside the big stone and staring at the small door of the Red Mansion.

"If you want to come back directly, will it break her heart?" The accountant asked with some concern. However, he was not concerned about the girl's feelings, but was afraid that the captain would regret it in the future, and then put all the blame on him. After all, this gangster leader still values women very much.

"No, it won't." The captain replied confidently, and held out his hand to him, "Give me your gun." โ€

"What are you ......" the accountant looked at the captain in horror.

"Long-winded, get it!" The captain shouted in a deep voice. The accountant had no choice but to take out his gun and hand it over. It was a small silver pistol, the body of which was inlaid with dark gold patterns, and the handle was made of northern peachwood, which had been rubbed to the touch and shiny.

"She's always wanted to get the gun, and she'll trade it for a while." The captain explained.

The accountant was dumbfounded, but he had been fooling for an unknown amount of time before he got out of the hands of this old rascal. Now it was gone in a blink of an eye, his heart was full of remorse, and his soul was silently crying: What is this! If I had known, I wouldn't have said it!

For the rest of the year, the accountant was in a mood of gaining and losing......

In the evening, the sun was sinking in the west, and the north wind was getting colder and colder.

"Why hasn't anyone come out yet?" The captain wrapped himself in a coat and grumbled in a low voice. However, his complaints were useless. After a few more hours, no one came out. At this time, the moon had climbed into the air, and the dim light from the wooden windows of the Red Mansion reflected the snow on the ground.

"Boss, it's too late, let's go back." The accountant was already shivering with cold, and he felt like he was about to faint.

"No! Money for a couple of ships. The captain said to himself, "I'm going to buy a nuclear-powered one, so I don't have to refuel in the future." โ€

With this in mind, the captain took the accountant and waited until the next morning.

As soon as it was dawn, the two people crouching next to the stones were almost frozen into ice. The captain and the accountant were covered in snowflakes and their faces were blue from the cold, and it was difficult for them to speak.

"Head...... Boss, let's go...... Let's go, ...... again If you don't leave, you'll ...... It's going to die. After saying that, the accountant followed the little match girl in the fairy tale and lit a match. In the dim light of the fire, he seemed to see hot chicken soup and fragrant ale......

"Wan ...... Wicked rich man...... Go to bed early and wake up late...... Sima Ren, I'm not done with you! The captain scolded hatefully, and stood up tremblingly holding on to the stone. His body moved, and the leather boots under his feet crackled, and they were all shards of broken ice.

At this time, the eldest lady of the Sima family was lying on a large oak bed carved with flowers and fruits, covered with a thick velvet quilt. As if sensing some resentment, she woke up slowly, stretched her waist, and made a comfortable "...... sound", then pulled the quilt, retracted and continued to sleep......

At the same time, the two people downstairs supported each other, staggering on the knee-high snow, and the wolf bรจi left in a bad ......

Half an hour later, the two slammed open the door of the giant wooden barrel and fell to the ground, shouting intermittently, "Chicken soup...... Chicken soup, ah......" "Wine...... Come to the wine ......" The bar owner hurriedly heated two bowls of ale wine, added some ginger, and poured it down for the two of them, which made it a little better.

"Turnip, are you willing to guard this tavern for the rest of your life?" The captain who had come over sat down on the log table and began to do the ideological work of the bar owner.

"Have you ever had a dream?" The captain said in his heart, "Just...... How about selling this place, coming to my ship, and messing with me? โ€

The bar owner shook his head and reminded, "The cost of food and accommodation these days ......"

As if he hadn't heard, the captain clenched his fists and continued, "Across the seven seas, laugh at the sunrise and sunset." This is every man's dream, O radish, sail with me and set off! โ€

The boss's eyes drooped, as if he was not at all impressed by the impassioned speech, and he said, "I can only cook, what are you going to make me do?" โ€

"There's a lack of a cook on board." "Does it make a difference where you become a chef?"

"I remember you said that when you were younger, you went to the snowy ice field to hunt bears." The captain said.

"Five people went, two died, and not a single snow bear was caught, is this called bear hunting?" The bar owner asked rhetorically.

"Hmm." The captain nodded, and said, "Indeed, being hunted by a bear is about the same. โ€

"Besides, this shop is only sold for thirty or forty gold, please Captain Xia raise your noble hand, don't be difficult for us little people." The bar owner clasped his fists.

The captain waved his hand, as if chasing flies, and said disdainfully, "You have this ambition, guarding this broken bar, can you lay eggs?" โ€

"You're short of money, why don't you think about ......," the owner said, looking suggestively into the corner of the bar.

The captain followed the boss's gaze and saw a young man in black sitting in the corner, silently eating breakfast.

This young man is the iron slag who worked as a porter all day yesterday and still has a sore back and leg pain today. Although his strength is greater than that of the average person, he has never been able to carry the work of three people by himself, and he was tired as soon as he came back last night.

"Brother Tie, brother, I am in distress and have no ship." The captain leaned over and said.

"No boat! So how do I cross the sea? Iron Slag looked up, his piercing gaze at the captain.

"I can't help it, the boat was robbed." The captain sighed.

"Get it back." Iron Slag said.

"How to rob? I can't beat it......"

"Actually......" Tie Slag paused and said, "You can hire me." โ€

The captain slapped his thigh suddenly, thinking, yes, how did you think of it! They are now people in the same boat, and mutual aid is a matter of course. With the strength of iron slag to crush the wine glass empty-handed, it will definitely not be a problem to snatch back the Ichthyosaurus.

"Great idea!" The captain agreed loudly, thought about it, and asked cautiously, "The other party is a golden mid-level strength, it should be fine, right?" โ€

"Huh?" Iron Slag was taken aback for a moment, the golden mid-level was not something that he, a silver high-level, could deal with. Not to mention the difference of two levels, even if it was slightly lower than him, he would not take this risk, so he asked, "Is there any other plan?" โ€

"I scraped together some money to buy a boat, and I still have a shortage of 50 gold, if you can ...... it in advance"

Before the captain could finish speaking, Iron Slag threw the money bag directly on the table. The captain grabbed the money bag with bright eyes, opened it and froze. There were no gold coins in it, except for a few silver coins, the rest were copper plates.

"Brother, you're not kidding, are you?" The captain's face darkened.

"That's all."

"What kind of boat do you have no money!" The captain shouted in a deep voice.

"You know my secret now, and if I don't have a boat, I'll have to kill you and find the next one." Iron Slag said faintly threateningly.

The captain just wanted to attack, but instinctively felt inexplicable danger. He quickly calmed down, since the other party has no fear, he must have this strength.

Indeed, he guessed correctly, Iron Slag had asked Alice to scan them the night before, knowing that they only had brass combat power, not even black iron. Killing them is as easy as chopping vegetables, which is why they are so strong.

"There's something wrong with that." "There is a saying in the old East, 'A strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake on the ground', although you are a strong man, we have lived in this sea for many years, and we are more familiar with the environment of the Black Sea. โ€

The captain's words were very true, but when it came to the iron slag, it was completely useless. I saw the iron slag spread his hands and gave an ultimatum, "Exchange the ticket for your own life, choose." โ€

"This ...... Okay, okay, I admit it. The captain smiled wryly and said, "But we don't have a ship now, so you have to make some effort to find a way to get some money back." โ€
