3

This is the third day of their voyage, except for the sky above their heads, there is a vast black liquid on all sides, during the day black and white are so distinct, competing with each other, and at night the sea and the sky are integrated, regardless of you and me, this is the relationship between the sea and the sky. And in reality, how can it not be like this: the two forces of black and white are not in the same place, but in the dark they collude with each other, which is why it is difficult for the evil forces to defeat!

Today's weather seems to be not bad, cloudless, windless, just a little hot, originally in the Wind Demon Town, I still need to wear winter clothes, but now I still feel hot when I wear short sleeves, plus the stench wafting in the sea, Tao Xiaozhi Most of them vomited, and the stupid star even had a fever and lay in the cabin all day and didn't come out.

The rose garden is located in the tail of the cabin of the "Rose and Skull", which is the so-called back garden, but there are only roses here, and they are all potted plants, there are hundreds of pots, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, all colors, here is the world of roses. These are not ordinary roses, they are called "compass roses", they are the so-called "compass", in the sea of the demon world, they are indispensable guide tools, which has been introduced in the previous part of the book, so there is no need to say more here. Each pot of roses has a "name", but it is the name of the place around the Black Sea coast, which is the destination that the compass rose refers to, the color of the flower can roughly know how far away from the destination, the darker the color, the farther it is, and the direction of the flower is the direction of the destination.

Tao Xiaozhi looked at these magical roses with great interest, trying to find out the sign of "Holy Spirit Source", but he didn't find it. At this time, a skeleton walked in, it was Wu Liang, the military advisor.

Wu Liang stroked his beard and shook his feather fan and said, "Are you very interested in these flowers?"

Tao Xiaozhi said: "Of course, who is not interested in such a strange flower?"

Wu Liang said, "You want to know when you will reach the source of the Holy Spirit, right?"

Tao Xiaozhi smiled: "Yes, as you expected, this is the real purpose." ”

Wu Liang said: "There is no rose called 'Holy Spirit Source' here-"

Tao Xiaozhi exclaimed: "How is it possible, how can we go without it?"

Wu Liang said with a smile: "The Holy Spirit Source is a big place, and there are many small places in it, each small place is very different, if only the big place is marked, then wouldn't the place we arrived be very inaccurate?"

Tao Xiaozhi suddenly realized: "I understand, you roses from small places with many sources of holy spirits, isn't this the case?"

Wu Liang said: "Yes." So do you know which state and which town you're going to in the source of the Holy Spirit?"

Tao Xiaozhi said: "I really don't know this。。。。。。。。 ”

Of course, Silly Xingxing and Lan Hao have mentioned it, but Tao Xiaozhi just can't remember these strange and strange names, and it wasn't him who led the way anyway.

Wu Liang said: "The source of the Holy Spirit is divided into five major parts, that is, five major states, and there are only two close to the Black Sea, one is called the Twelve Peninsula Prefecture, and the other is called Shengbin Prefecture。。。。。。。。 ”

"Okay, okay。。。。。。 Tao Xiaozhi sighed and said, "You just tell us where you want to go." ”

Wu Liang said: "The Hailong Peninsula of the Twelve Peninsulas is also called the Longtou Peninsula. ”

Tao Xiaozhi soon found the compass rose marked "Hailong Peninsula", but the rose was colored, that is, the petals were variegated, and almost even the color was there.

Tao Xiaozhi exclaimed: "What's going on?"

Wu Liang said: "This means that we are still far from the Hailong Peninsula: the darker the flower, the farther the distance, and the variegated flower is the farthest。。。。。。。。 ”

Tao Xiaozhi said: "How far is it?"

Wu Liang stroked the only beard on his chin and said, "It's about a month away。。。。。。。 ”

Tao Xiaozhi said: "That is, it will take us more than a month to sail to arrive?"

Wu Liang said: "Yes, if nothing else. ”

Tao Xiaozhi calculated, and said to himself: "That's not a sea distance of thousands of kilometers。。。。。。。。 ”

Wu Liang smiled but did not speak.

Tao Xiaozhi said with a smile: "After staying at sea for more than a month, I will become a pirate without becoming a skeleton!"

Wu Liang smiled: "Join us, we are always welcome!"

Tao Xiaozhi looked at these roses for a long time, and then said, "I have a suggestion-"

Wu Liang said: "What suggestions?"

Tao Xiaozhi said: "It's not very convenient for you to label these roses like this, it's better to put the big name in front, for example, this plate should be called 'Holy Spirit Source - Twelve Peninsula Sea Dragon Peninsula', isn't this more aspect。。。。。。。。。? ”

Wu Liang stroked his beard and smiled: "This suggestion is good, but for those of us who have been at sea for so long and have been to so many places, it is not necessary, we blindly know which direction each place is in (if there is no storm; but we don't know the distance), and when we look at the direction of the compass rose, it is easy to find the pot we want。。。。。。。 ”

Tao Xiaozhi nodded and said, "That's the same。。。。。。。 ”

Wu Liang handed Tao Xiaozhi a shower and said, "Don't say more, hurry up and help me water these words, this damn weather makes them all depressed。。。。。。。 ”

Tao Xiaozhi said: "Is this seawater?"

Wu Liang said: "What do you say?"

“。。。。。。。。。。 ”

Suddenly there was a rush of horns, followed by the sound of hurried feet on the deck and the shouts of the crew—the sirens of the "Rose and the Skull"! All the crew members quickly assembled on deck, ready for battle! Did they encounter pirates or enemy ships?

In fact, this is not the case, when Tao Xiaozhi walked out, he was taken aback again: the vast black sea, calm and calm, and the white clouds in the sky form a strong contrast, only a small boat between the black and white junction! He thought it was surrounded by a group of boats, but it turned out to be just a small boat!

But this was not an ordinary ship, but a wrecked ship, the mast was broken and drifted to nowhere, the hull was full of sights like hedgehogs, the deck cabins were burned black and slightly smoking, except for the black places, and of course the red places, which were traces of blood! Look at the situation, it looked like it had been robbed by pirates! There were also six or seven burnt and bloodied crew members on board, waving white flags weakly, and their voices were screaming excitedly at the moment, although they had already shouted.

At this time, the skeletons breathed a sigh of relief, although there was no so-called "nerves" in their bodies, but this "tension" was rooted in the soul! But Wu Liang didn't seem to have such an expression (although he only saw bones), stroked his beard, quietly looked at the ship on the sea, and signaled the crew to be quiet and highly vigilant.

"Do you see what's wrong?" said the one-eyed baby.

Wu Liang said: "Not yet-"

The one-eyed baby sneered, "There's nothing wrong with it。。。。。。。 Girls are worried。。。。。。 ”

Wu Liang said: "But I always feel that this ship is not the right time。。。。。。。。 ”

The one-eyed baby said, "I don't think it's the right time for you to say this。。。。。。。 It's not the first day you've been in the Black Sea, it's a lot of things to get hijacked by pirates - we're pirates!"

Wu Liang nodded, and then shouted to the entire crew: "Full speed ahead, to the left, away from that small boat!"

The one-eyed baby pulled Wu Liang's feather fan and said puzzledly: "If you don't help them, it doesn't matter, you can't deviate from the course and avoid it - others still think we are afraid of them!"

Wu Liang smiled: "I'm really afraid of them~~~~"

The one-eyed baby's eye hole gem flashed with a light and smiled: "I know what you're afraid of: you're afraid it's a trap!"

Wu Liang smiled: "It seems that you have been with me for a long time, and your brain has really become smart~~~"

The one-eyed baby said: "You are too cowardly, even if it is a trap, what kind of climate can that small boat become!"

Wu Liang smiled: "Be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years~~~"

The one-eyed baby said disdainfully: "You're a coward, I'm not." If you don't save them, I'll save them!"

Out of nowhere, he suddenly felt a sense of righteousness, and as he spoke, he jumped into a small boat that he was tied to, cut off the rope, and rowed the boat alone towards the wrecked boat for help.
