Chapter 43: The White River

The warm sun shone on the deck, and the seagulls swept quickly past the side of the ship and flew off into the distance. , the latest chapter access: ШШШ.79xs.БоМ . The captain was at the helm himself, and after a night of sailing, the first mate had gone to rest in the cabin, and several crew members were staggering on deck, enjoying the rare sunbathing.

Since she had slept almost the whole day the day before, Morena had only taken a few naps last night and got up at dawn. She rarely took a boat, so she was very excited and curious about a leisurely voyage on the White River, and spent most of the time on deck except for sleeping. Before the first mate chatted with her and answered some questions about life on the water, after Carlos woke up to 'hand' the shift, it became the captain to continue chatting with her, and the first mate had to very reluctantly 'hand' the rudder out, and it could be seen that he obviously wanted to talk to the ** master for a while.

Jasmina had finished asking all the questions about the ship and the voyage, and Carlos was still gushing with great interest, and the ** master remembered something and interrupted him. "By the way, kind captain, do you know Fern? I know you're so helpful, but it's a bit unusual to leave the harbor just to see two people off without any business. ”

Carlos burst out laughing. "That's right, beautiful 'woman', you are not only 'charming' and elegant, but also have such a brilliant mind, I once drove Fern and a few of his companions to Stockinki, I didn't like them either, he was too hard at bargaining, but then something happened that completely changed my opinion of him. ”

"Oh?" said Morena raised an eyebrow. "What can make you change so much?"

"We met a ghost boat on the White River......" Speaking of this, the captain swallowed his saliva unconsciously. "Two unmanned boats crashed into our flanks, and we wanted to go over to check on the situation, and guess what came out of the cabins of those two ships?"

"Could it be...... "Jasmine guessed cautiously, lest she frighten the captain.

"I can't say if it's a dark tide, I've never seen what a dark tide looks like, but the things on those two ships must be no worse than a dark tide. Carlos pouted and shifted to the left. "Two groups of bloodied corpses moved towards us. ”

"Corpses?" Morena nodded slightly. "Something horrible indeed, but what happened?"

"Fern and his companions rescued us, and we rushed out in time, but Fern almost died in the ghost boat in order to break the queen, and only escaped with a little luck in the end, if the man named Stan had not caught him, he would have fallen into the river. Carlos shrugged his shoulders and turned back to the right.

"He's always so 'messy' and doesn't think about the consequences. Jarena shook her head, a smile on her face.

Carlos glanced at the ** master curiously, and when he saw that Morena noticed it, he immediately turned around. "Forgive my curiosity, 'woman', but what is your relationship with Fern?"

Jamina was silent for a moment before replying. "I'm his companion too, just like Stan. ”

"I guess you're on better terms than your peers. Carlos smirked, seemingly proud of his discovery.

A subtle flush appeared on Jaminena's face. "yes, how do you see that?"

The captain saw that he had guessed correctly, and laughed again. "Dear 'woman', don't look at me 'dealing' with this ship and those bachelors all day long, when I don't leave the port, I don't have much fun...... Oh...... There are many ...... with all kinds of 'female' people 'Dealing'. One look, one action, I know what you're thinking. ”

Jarena's face stiffened, and Carlos was talking proudly, unaware of it. "With all due respect, 'woman', you want him, but he doesn't seem to care, I suggest you take the initiative, if necessary, I can change you to a room, I can easily find an excuse......"

"That's enough!" Morena interrupted Carlos harshly. "My captain, I'm sure you've dealt with a lot of women, but I'm not one of those women, so please don't guess me with these boring experiences. ”

"I'm sorry, 'woman', I didn't mean to offend you, I just ...... Want to help you. Carlos realized that he had gone too far, and hurriedly bowed and apologized to the ** teacher.

"Get serious about driving your Princess Merry. Jasmina dropped these words, walked to the bow of the boat without looking back, leaning against the edge of the boat without saying a word.

Carlos regretted throwing the pirate hat on the ground, and without the ** master to chat with him, the boring driving suddenly made him bored, so he had to pay attention to the rudder.

The sun had passed its highest point and began to descend at a slow pace, and Fern finally yawned as he walked up the wooden ladder. Before he could get to the captain, Carlos gestured to him, then pointed to the bow. "I'm saying the wrong thing, Fern, she seems to be a little angry, go talk to her. ”

Fern looked in the direction of the captain's finger, and the lonely figure of Morena stood dignified in the sun, her long hair and silk clothes fluttering slightly in the wind, and the golden sunlight passed through Morena's long hair, forming a soft halo. Fern tightened his coat and slowly walked to the side of the ** division. "We'll be there tomorrow morning, don't we feel like it's enough?"

Morena pursed her lips and pulled a strand of hair from her cheeks behind her ear. "Yes, you don't often take boats, as a mercenary, you should be running around Wallis all year round, and you must know a lot of people, including...... All kinds of 'female' people. ”

"'Female' people know some, but not so much. Fern replied truthfully, "Most of them are just one-sided, I don't have the charm to make them miss me, unlike Stan, who has been to every tavern he has ever visited, and the 'waiter' and 'girl' there can give him a hug." ”

Morena snorted softly. "Stan, he's a knight and has strict rules, so he won't be like you. ”

"Like me?" Fern scratched his head, puzzled.

"I know that among the mercenaries, there are quite a few people who show mercy everywhere and then walk away irresponsibly. "Jasmine lowered her head and looked at the water 'flowers' at the bow of the boat. "Or it can be said that it is all the male ** soldiers. ”

Fern smiled in realization, and put his hands on the edge of the boat. "Just as people think that mercenaries are greedy for money, this is also taken for granted, there are exceptions to everything, and you can't generalize. ”

"Aren't you?" said Morena, turning her head and looking at Fern gravely.

Fern shrugged. "Of course not, but I don't say it myself, it's not convincing at all, but can't you see it? I always thought that you were very observant and not lost to Rui at all. ”

"People can be 'blinded', especially when facing certain people, the obvious things will be filtered out, and only what she wants to see will be seen. Jaminena's eyes were still fixed on Fern like a half-moon-shaped spring.

Fern was so flustered by Jarena's gaze that he felt like he was almost sinking into that puddle of water, and hurriedly avoided her gaze. "We still have important tasks to do, the road ahead is full of dangers, and we have to give it our all and not be distracted. ”

Morena's face softened and she looked ahead again. "You're right, Fern, you're right......"

The sun gradually sank in the west, the golden light turned into a dark red, and the breeze on the white river blew a little coolness on the body. The dim sunlight reflected in the river, and the whole river was sparkling and churning. As the wetlands and puddles along the shore gradually become scarce, undulating mud begins to appear among the trees.
