After listening to Dolan's words, Luca almost laughed: "With your singing, it's polite that they don't want you to post money." ”

"Is it really that miserable?" said Dolan, looking incredulous.

"Haven't you ever thought about playing the piano yourself and finding someone else to help you sing?" Thea's idea was very feasible.

"I thought about it, but most of the good minstrels, and I haven't been able to find a partner, or I'll be reduced to the point of rubbing the boat," Dolan said dejectedly.

Ollie tugged at Luca's sleeve and beckoned the others to come over as well, asking in a low voice, "What the hell are we going to do with him?"

Lukka thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, don't worry too much, take him to the next port and throw him down." ”

"But it's not safe to let this guy wander around the ship, right?" Daniel was not reassured.

"Yes, if he plays the piano again, it is possible to control us to jump into the sea collectively. Nora agreed.

"There is a real need to limit his movements. ”

After Lukka finished speaking, he raised his head to look at the wood spirit that was tightly wrapped in spider silk, and waved his staff to remove part of the spell effect.

Dolan's hands weren't free, just the spider threads wrapped around the lute slipped down.

Lukka walked up to him, reached out and pulled the harp out of his arms, then swung his staff again, wrapping Dolan into a chrysalis with the silk again.

"I can take you to the next port, but on terms. Lukka said and plucked the lute, which made only a string of noises in his hand.

"What conditions? Jean can't give it to you!" said Dolan, writhing in the cobwebs, anxious.

"It's just a piano, why don't we smash it open and see if there's a secret letter or something hidden in it?" Thea suggested again.

"Don't smash it! Don't smash it!" Dolan was terrified.

"Oh, is there anything special about this piano?" Lukka noticed that his reaction was a little too excited, and he used the magic flow to probe inside and out, but found nothing unusual.

Dolan suddenly giggled, and as he laughed, he breathlessly said, "Don't touch my piano!

"I see!" Phil guessed the answer, "this piano is part of his body." ”

Lukka suddenly realized that when he played this piano, he was actually playing the wood spirit sitting on the ground, although the guy was just a plant, but the appearance was a male elf after all, which made him feel awkward and awkward, and quickly stuffed the lute into Daniel's hand.

"What are you doing for me?" the ghost held the harp, at a loss.

"You take it first, and then decide what to do when I understand. Lukka wiped his hands with Daniel's coat by the way.

He walked up to Dolan, looked down and asked, "What will happen to you if I do smash the harp?

"No, plants can grow branches again. Phil followed.

Dolan shook his head: "I won't be disabled, I'll die directly." ”

"Is it that serious?" Lukka was not convinced.

Dolan explained, "We wood spirits are not the same as yours, we don't have your internal organs, but there are things that you call the core of life. ”

"That piano is your core?" Lukka understood.

"Yes, it's the equivalent of your heart compared to your organs. Dolan said.

"My heart doesn't just leave my body and let others fiddle with it. Lukka suddenly felt that it was safe to be a human being of flesh and blood.

"I don't want to, it's usually on me, and I only take it off when I'm playing. Dolan sighed.

"Is he telling the truth?" Lukka asked, turning to Crete.

Crete shook his head: "I can't say anything about plants. ”

He discerns whether a humanoid is lying or not, by looking at the other person's heart, breath, and eyes. The physiological structure of the wood spirit is completely different from that of a human, and even if he has good eyesight, he has never been in contact with this creature before, so he cannot judge.

Nora said, "What I know about the wood spirits is more in line with what he said. ”

Lukka listened, bowed his head and thought for a while, and said to Dolan: "I can take you to the next port, but you can't walk around the ship at will, stay in the cabin assigned to you and can't come out, food and water will be brought to you." ”

Dolan looked embarrassed: "Captain, can you be accommodating? I must bask in the sun, or I will wither." You don't have to prepare food, I just have water and sunshine. ”

Lukka looked at Nora, and the fire elf nodded slightly, signaling that Dolan wasn't lying.

"You've got a lot to do. Lukka shook his head helplessly, "Okay, you can stay on the deck, and wiping the deck is up to you." By the way, I'll arrange two guards for you. ”

As he spoke, he called to the goblins and gnomes: "You two don't have to climb the mast, you still have to be alone for half a day, just keep an eye on him, and don't let him touch anything on the ship except to wipe the deck." ”

Finch and Gavin didn't have a big deal, and the job was a lot easier than being on the lookout.

"Can you untie the nets?" asked Dolan, "and can I return my harp?"

Lukka raised his staff, undoing the effects of the spider web, and then slammed the staff sideways, stopping Dolan's outstretched hand towards the lute.

"You can move around as you please, Jean will stay with me for the time being. If you are in good order on the ship, I will return the piano to you when you get off the next port. Luca said.

"But......" Dolan wanted to discuss.

"Nothing, Daniel, wait a minute and send the piano to the safe on the ground floor, it's not the one that holds the money, I remember there was a little cargo hold near the stern, and now it's empty, so use that." Lukka turned to the ghost.

"Why, wouldn't it be easier to pack them together?" asked Daniel, scratching his head.

"What if his 'heart' can move and steal the money along with it?" Lukka asked rhetorically.

"Oh, too, I'll send it now. Daniel said and walked back into the cabin.

"Wait, let Thea go with you and add her best lock, and I'll add a magic seal in a moment. Lukka said, turning his head to look at Dolan, "I'll add the kind of seal that burns the contents if someone tries to steal it." ”

Dolan immediately understood what he meant: "I promise not to steal!"

Lukka nodded, and then ordered the others: "Finch, you watch him during the day today, and call Gavin to rotate later." Nora can take the living flame down first, and it's not too late to burn it if he's not honest. That's it, let's all disperse. ”

With that, he led Daniel and Thea to the cargo hold, adding several insurance measures to the inconspicuous little cabin.
