Chapter 5 Undercurrents

Tang Jie's punch came out, and with a bang, he punched a hole in the door panel, just enough for his arm to stretch out.

He fumbled his hand outside the door, just in time to reach the latch.

He fiddled twice, latched the door open, and walked out on his own.

As soon as he walked out of this small dark room, Tang Jie couldn't help but stretch his body, it was too uncomfortable to curl up in it.

He looked around, but saw a few dim oil lamps hanging in the aisle of the cabin, the lights of which were shining and dimming as the ship swayed on the waves, and there was a commotion in a cabin not far away.

Tang Jie walked over lightly and glanced inside through the half-hidden door.

It was a rather spacious sailor's room, where two powerful sailors wrestled their hands in front of a table, their thick arms, muscles bulging like rocks, thick green tendons rolling and twisting like snakes under their skin, full of strength.

Around them was a group of cheering sailors, some of them holding a bottle of wine in their hands, their faces full of red light and roaring loudly, while others sat on a barrel and gambled on who would win and who would lose, shouting loudly and turning the gold coins in front of them into a clang.

The room was filled with the strong smell of alcohol and sweat.

Tang Jie found that the two wrist-wrestlers, one of whom was Beer Keg William, had gradually overwhelmed his opponent and gained an advantage, and it was only a matter of time before he won.

Skinny Bamboo Pole Bill cheered him on and screamed, "William, kill him, it's almost over, hurry up and kill him!"

"Shut up!" William roared, and with a sudden, thud, knock down the sailor in front of him.

The surrounding sailors erupted in cheers, and Bill laughed and threw him a wine bottle, exclaiming, "Well done William!"

William took the bottle, took a sip of the spirits, laughed, and raised the bottle among the sailors: "Kill without blinking!"

The surrounding sailors raised their bottles and responded in unison: "No mercy!!"

William exclaimed, "Who are we?"

The sailors stamped their feet and let out a neat shout: "We are pirates!"

William raised his arms and shouted, "Free pirates!!"

There was a violent carnival in the sailors' room, as if the roof of the cabin was about to be lifted, some of them sang pirate songs, some of them danced with their hands, and Tang Jie could even see a few sailors with broken arms and one eye beating and drinking and shouting.

What a bunch of carefree guys who are happy in time!

Tang Jie looked at the cheerful and forgetful expressions on their faces, the anger in his heart disappeared a little, and he couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart.

He can see from the expressions of these people at this time that this is a group of men who don't know how to groom and hide themselves, they will sing when they are happy, laugh when they are happy, yell when they are angry, cry when they are sad, and they will vent their feelings naked under the embrace of the sea.

Because they know that the benevolent and fraternal god Tila will tolerate everything about them, even if they die one day, their souls and ** will return to the arms of the sea god Tila and become an unrestrained wave in the sea, continue to be passionate and high-spirited!

"What a bunch of simple and happy bastards...... "Tang Jie, who comes from modern society, certainly knows what kind of luxury it is to be able to vent his passion so unscrupulously.

He smiled and left the half-hidden door gently, not disturbing their revelry, for he knew that the sailors of this ship, though very simple and willing to take revenge, were equally hostile and repulsive to all people and everything outside the ship.

If you want to fit into such a group of people, you must either become a person like them, or use your strength to gain their approval.

But before that, there is one more important thing to do, and that is to find something to eat!

People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.

Fortunately, food was not hard to find in the cabin, and the unwary sailors did not value the storage of this food, because under the strict rules of Captain Barr, no sailor would steal food, otherwise they would have been punished with ten lashes.

Tang Jie found piles of food in a cargo hold, mostly dry food, and many pickled fish hanging from the ship's hold.

He opened a small sealed wooden barrel, and found that it was basically dried meat, and he was so hungry that he hid a few pieces in his arms, and slipped out.

Tang Jie looked around and found that almost all the sailors had gone off the deck, reveling or resting in the cabin, and it was obviously not a very safe thing to wander around in the cabin.

So, he climbed to the top of the deck.

Coming out of the cabin, a refreshing sea breeze greeted him, which shocked Tang Jie's spirit.

There were barely any figures on the deck, not even the stars overhead, the sea breeze blowing the sails to the brim, and the only sound of the waves around made people feel an indescribable silence.

Tang Jie walked onto the deck, ready to find a no-man's corner and eat something secretly, but heard a drunken voice coming: "Who's over there!"

Tang Jie's heart tightened, and he was about to turn around and sneak into the cabin in the thick of the night, when he heard the voice and said with a smile: "Don't hide, come here, I see you! I smell the dried meat in your arms, come here, see it!"

Tang Jie followed the voice, squinted his eyes and looked over, but saw a person standing on the helm platform, waving to him.

Then in the dim and faint night, Tang Jie walked over, but found that this person was different from the pirates on other ships, he was neatly dressed, and he was wearing a black gown, which was tightly buttoned, but there were some obvious friction marks on his hands and feet and the hem of his clothes.

This man has a stubble on his face, he looks very sloppy, he is holding a bottle of wine in his hand, drunk and smoky, he saw Tang Jie coming over, and giggled: "It turned out to be you, young man!"

He handed over the wine in his hand: "Come, drink a little?"

Tang Jie stared at him strangely, this person's dress reminded him of a priest, but he didn't hold a Bible in his hand, he took the wine bottle, leaned over with his nose and sniffed it, a spicy breath choked him and frowned, pinched his nose and threw the wine bottle back.

"I can't drink such strong wine...... Tang Jie smiled bitterly, "Thank you!"

The man laughed, raised the wine bottle, and motioned to Tang Jie: "My name is Horn, you must be that Tang Jie?"

Tang Jie was a little surprised: "I'm still a celebrity?"

Horn took a sip and wiped his mouth: "This boat is so big, what can I hide? I was watching from the side when you were fished up." ”

Tang Jie hurriedly asked, "How did I get fished?"

Horn smiled: "It was Bill who found you, William fished you up, we all thought you were dead at the time, but we didn't expect you to be alive." It's the first time we've picked up a living person in the sea, and you're so lucky!"

As he spoke, he smashed his mouth a few times, as if he was savoring the taste of the wine: "Rum, spicy and sweet, just like a woman, the best wine in the world!

Tang Jie was moved by his enthusiasm, took the wine bottle, looked at him suspiciously, and gestured at his body with his hand: "You ......"

Horn also gestured, motioned for Tang Jie to taste it, and then said with a smile: "Are you wondering, why do I look different from the others on the boat?"

He looked at Tang Jie with his head up, his eyes closed, tasting rum like righteousness, and said with a smile: "I am a priest......"

"Poof!!" Tang Jie heard this, and a mouthful of wine squirted out, and the wine that was drunk into his throat cut his throat like a knife.

"Ahem...... Tang Jie coughed violently, pointed to the priest in front of him, and said in disbelief, "You said you are a priest?

Horn laughed, "Someone used to know that I was a priest and like you, with eyes as round as a rudder. But on this boat, you're the first one to choke on rum to your throat!"

Tang Jie was choked by the wine and tears flowed out, he took a bite of the jerky and chewed hard, wanting to take the taste of the jerky to dilute the strong smell of wine.

Horn unceremoniously took a piece of jerky from in front of him, chewed it heavily, and said to himself, "You took it yourself?"

Tang Jie asked rhetorically: "How do you know?"

Horn smiled, "Barr is a stingy man, he won't be willing to give you these fine jerky!"

Tang Jie shrugged his shoulders: "Then isn't he very angry now?"

Horn winked at him, "Why don't you let him know?"

Tang Jie smiled, his expression hesitated, but he still asked the question in his heart: "Since you are a priest, why are you on the pirate ship?

Horn smiled slightly, "It's going to be a long story, do you have that much time?"

Tang Jie smiled: "Anyway, I don't have anything else!"
