Chapter 139: Arriving at the Destination
Erin looked at Leah quietly, and then suddenly a sentence came out that made Leah want to squirt blood: "You...... You just said that you like girls...... But I like boys......"
Leah opened her mouth, and then couldn't help but grit her teeth for a while, she realized that this Erin can really people off sometimes.
"I didn't mean that, it's just that I need the help of someone who can sail a boat, and I think your surname is pretty good, and you can be friends, why did you want to go to that kind of place!"
"First they became friends, and then they became that kind of relationship, right? I really don't like girls' ......" Erin looked at Leah with a pitiful expression, as if Leah was forcing her to do something she really didn't want to do.
Leah was really going crazy now, she rubbed her hair vigorously, and then said to Erin viciously, "If you don't help me sail, I won't give you food!"
Erin blinked and asked, "Leah, do you know how to cook?"
"Uh......" Leah was suddenly stopped by Erin, who realized that she really hadn't cooked herself.
"The food you brought back can't be eaten directly, you have to cook it before you can eat it. ”
"Do you know how to cook?" asked Leah tentatively.
"Of course it will, didn't they all say it just now, those guys used me as a maid, if I didn't know how to cook, I would definitely be beaten by them. Erin's expression was a little bitter when she said this, obviously remembering some not-so-good memories.
"Erin, I promise I don't think anything wrong about you, will you come with me?
The hard one didn't work, Leah decided to come soft, she folded her hands and looked at Erin with a pitiful face, and took her cute skills to the extreme, in general, this trick is absolutely no one can resist.
Sure enough, Erin breathed when she saw Leah's appearance, and then turned her head uncomfortably.
"Help me, please~" Leah saw that there was a play, and continued to plead in a soft voice.
"Well, I'll only help you cook on the boat, not your girlfriend. Erin finally relented under Leah's onslaught.
"Well, let's just say that, I'm sure I won't have that kind of thought about you, or the two of them will be. Leah smiled happily.
After more than an hour, Leah and Erin climbed out of the barrel, because they knew Leah's surname, this time Erin was obviously much more vigilant, and did not show Leah the front of her body at all, and quickly put on her clothes to the side.
Leah couldn't help but scratch her face and smile bitterly when she saw Erin's actions, it was the first time she was treated like this by a girl, and this feeling was really indescribably weird.
When Erin turned around again, Leah couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, the cleaned Erin's appearance had changed a lot compared to just now, if you look at it carefully, she is indeed a beautiful girl with a good appearance, no wonder the pirates have the idea of selling her.
And unlike the aristocratic lady who grew up in the city, Erin's skin is a healthy wheat color, and her skin texture is good.
Seeing that Leah had been staring at her, Erin blocked her body with her arms with some dissatisfaction, and said, "If you look at me like this again, I won't care about you." ”
"Oh, I'm sorry, it's just that you've changed a lot from just now, and I'm just a little surprised......" Leah scratched the back of her head and smirked awkwardly.
Erin blinked in confusion, "What have you changed a lot?"
"By the way, you used to only bathe in cold water...... Cold water can't completely wash your body, you can go to the lake and see how you look now. ”
Erin ran to the lake, crouched down to look at her reflection, her face was visibly surprised, she reached out and touched her face, and then touched her black hair, her hair that had been washed in hot water was completely devoid of the greasy feeling it had been.
"Taking a hot bath is not only a pleasure, but it also makes you cleaner. ”
After taking a shower, Leah and Erin ate a coconut and chatted casually for a while, and then sleepiness gradually crept into their hearts.
Leah had turned the shower into a campsite for the camp, where there were just two fires to keep them warm, and Erin watched as Leah weaved a quilt out of leaves, her eyes full of curiosity.
After saying goodnight to each other, Leah and Erin fell asleep, both of them knowing that tonight's rest was important because tomorrow they were on their way.
The next day, Leah and Erin came to their senses at dawn almost at the same time, and they washed up by the lake, after which Leah washed the two tin barrels for bathing, and removed several barrels from the boat, all filled with fresh water.
She then collected a lot of coconuts from the neighborhood, and also found a lot of edible fruits from the tropical jungle, which Leah was so good at potions that she could easily identify.
After doing this, Leah checked the food she brought out yesterday, which should be enough to eat for a month if it was only for two people.
With all these preparations done, Leah felt that she was ready to go to sea, so she turned her gaze to Erin.
Erin nodded, then climbed the mast like a monkey, grabbed the rope and the sail and jumped down from it, and in an instant the sail was unfurled and landed smoothly on the deck.
Leah couldn't help but applaud when she saw her skillful movements, because it was the first time she had been praised like this, Erin's little face was slightly red.
Next, the pirate ship with the pirate flag off left the island, and the ship looked like a normal passenger ship, but Leah was well aware that there were six naval guns in the cabin, exactly three on one side, and in addition to a ballista on the deck of the ship.
The first day of sailing was soon over, and at night, Leah and Erin sat on the deck, and Leah listened attentively to Erin's talk about how to identify directions according to the constellations, and only by learning how to recognize directions could she use the charts and avoid getting lost at sea.
While it's likely that Leah will never have the chance to sail alone in her life, it never hurts to learn a little more, and this skill may be useful elsewhere.
Maybe the previous experience has used up all the bad luck, and Leah's next journey can be said to be smooth sailing, not to mention the enemy who blocked her, she didn't even encounter a relatively large wind and waves.
But a little thought about it can be relieved, the Pope must now think that Leah is dead, and they deliberately deviated a little from the course of ordinary ships when choosing the course, so Leah and the two have not even seen ordinary ships in the past few days.
Fifteen days after leaving the pirate base, Leah finally saw the destination of her trip, a huge island with no eye on the horizon - Whitsunday Island.
From the sea, the southeastern part of Whitsunday Island is home to a huge port and bustling city, and a little further back is the headquarters of the Cult of the Whitsundays, where numerous solemn towers rise, all surrounded by a huge church with a huge octagonal dome that looks like it has recreated the architecture of the Italian Renaissance.
Because they were so close to Whitsunday Island, there were more and more passenger and cargo ships on either side of the pirate ship, but Leah had already destroyed everything on board that could be associated with pirates, so not many people noticed their ship.
However, a small number of people noticed that there were only two young girls on the ship, and were very surprised.
Soon after, Erin sailed the ship into the harbor, stopped at an empty berth, and then expertly completed the docking work, while Leah and the port management paid for a month's stop.
The management was a little strange how there were only two little girls on board, but it didn't matter.
Whitsunday welcomes a large number of tourists from all over the world every day, many of whom are very noble people, and if you are not careful in working here, you may one day offend those who cannot be offended, and then give away your own life, so the administrators who work here will generally just turn a blind eye when they see strange things.
As for judging the identity of the visitor based on the way he or she dresses...... There will never be a shortage of rich people in this world who are idle and painful, deliberately dress themselves up more shabby, and come out to pretend to be pigs and tigers.
After leaving the port, Leah took Erin to the street, according to the signs, the name of the city is the Holy Light City, which is a religious city directly belonging to the Holy Spirit Cult, so the biggest feature of this city is that there are many large and small churches in the city, and the architectural style is the same as the style of the Holy Spirit God Church, because of this look, Leah can't help but have the illusion that she has traveled back to Renaissance Italy.
As for Erin, who was next to Leah, she had been looking around curiously since she entered the city, and everything here was so new to her who had been living in a pirate base.
However, Erin was careful not to make her movements too obvious so as not to attract attention, and according to Leah, the boss of the group who wanted to kill her lived in the ornate buildings in the distance.
Soon after, Leah led Erin to an inn and asked for a room, because Leah's money had always been kept close to her, and although the previous storm had caused her to lose some of her money, the remaining gold coins were enough for her to spend for a long time.
Once in the room, Leah cheered and jumped onto the soft single bed, rolling on the bed with a pillow. (To be continued.) )
