Chapter Twenty-Eight: Captain Ed

Fast and Baucus introduce Captain Ed to his name.

Captain Ed said warily, "Who are you?" Fast said, "We are white magicians. Ide stroked his beard with his hand and asked with a slight mockery, "Do you also want to go to ghast island?" Without thinking, Baucus said, "That's right." ”

Captain Ed patted his thigh and laughed, and said with mockery, "Just by you? Hahaha. Fast said suspiciously, "Have you ever been to ghast island?" Captain Ed put away his smile and said with a serious expression, "That's right, I've been there, it's dark and terrifying, full of man-eating monsters, and every night you will hear the miserable howls of countless undead like hell!" Box said solemnly, "Can you take us there?" ”

Captain Ed's eyes flashed with admiration, and he stroked his beard and looked at Bauces and asked, "Why did you go to that island?" Baucus lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and said, "My wife is sick, and only the tooth juice of the Sruth elephant can cure her." Captain Ed looked at the two people in front of him, hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "If you have concern, you can live, and those who are not afraid of death are crazy." ”

Captain Ed poured himself a glass of wine with his strong, scarred hands, took a sip of wine, then picked up a peanut and said with a little sadness: "When I was exploring the sea with my wife, I came to ghast island in a storm, and I left, and my wife remained there forever. Captain Ide finished and took another glass of wine and took a sip.

Seeing Captain Ed trying to suppress the tears in his eyes, Fast said with a little sadness, "I am sad for what happened to you. Captain Ed held back tears and smiled firmly, "I'll go back, find her and bring everything back." Box stood up and stretched out his right hand and said solemnly, "I have the privilege of hiring you and your ship to go to ghast island?" ”

Captain Ed stroked his beard and looked at the clothes of the two people in front of him, as soon as he entered the door, he saw these two people wearing the Ispoo battle master uniform, he knew that these two clothes were expensive, and at the same time a symbol of strength, so Captain Ed stood up and said, "I see you should be very strong, okay I promise you." Fast got up and asked, "How much does it pay?" ”

Captain Ed kept wiping his hands on his leather captain's suit, and said, "100,000 gold Galleons, help me pay back the wine money I owe first, pay 50,000 gold Galleons when I leave tomorrow, and then give the remaining 50,000 if you can come back alive." Baucus said, "Okay, that's a deal." Captain Ed stretched out his hand to shake hands with Baus, and as the two shook hands, white vines appeared to wrap their hands around, and Captain Ed said firmly in his eyes: "I swear that I will take you to ghast island, and I will also bring you back." Captain Ed finished and the white vines vanished. Then Captain Ed also made an oath with Fast.

After signing the oath, Captain Ed looked at the food on the table, patted his stomach and said, "I'll take these drinks back to my crew first, and then I'll prepare supplies today, and we'll meet at Pier 15 at 10 a.m. tomorrow." As he spoke, he poured the dish into his telescopic bag, then carefully poured the wine into his own flask, and carefully put it into his arms, and Fast and Box looked at the scene in front of them with anger and amusement.

Captain Ed saw that the food and drinks had been packed by himself, and then said satisfiedly: "I'll go back and prepare the supplies first, and we'll meet at Pier 15 at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning." After saying that, he limped out, and did not forget to greet the bartender as he left.

At this time, the bartender came over and said, "What else do you want to eat?" Fast pointed to the door and asked suspiciously, "Has he always been like this?" The bartender smiled and nodded, "It's always been like this." Fast and Baucus exchanged glances, shrugged their shoulders, and ordered a few more dishes again.

The next morning, the two arrived at Pier 15, an old dock with a crumbling floor, a dilapidated dock, and the smell of seafood rushing into their nostrils. Fast looked around suspiciously, but didn't see a big ship. Fastel grabbed Baucus and whispered, "This man won't lie to us, will he?" Baucus smiled and said, "Breaking the oath will be punished by heaven, besides, let's find out first." Fast and Baucus searched for Captain Ed at Pier 15 and finally found Captain Ed in a corner.

At this time, Captain Ed had been waiting for a long time, and kept waving his hand to let the two of them come over. Fast and Baucus came up to him, and Fast looked around and asked, "Captain Ed, where is your ship?" Captain Ed laughed and stroked his beard, only to see him wave his big hand and point to the side and say confidently, "Let you see that this is my ship!" The Shell Lady adventure ship! Fast and Box exclaimed in surprise as they looked in the direction Captain Ed pointed, and shouted in unison, "Canoe!!! ”

Captain Ed lifted his chest and slammed his cane on the floor, then raised his cane to draw a circle in the air, chanting the incantation: "Remove the clouds and see the sun, remove the concealment!" At this moment, the crutches sent a beam of light on the dilapidated canoe, and I saw that bubbles continued to appear next to the canoe, and suddenly a large boat rushed out of the water and stirred up a wave of waves. Fast looked up and saw a huge brig, its pure wood-colored hull contrasting with its pure white sails, and at the bow was a beautifully carved statue of a lady holding a shell, and a line of large letters was written on the hull in white paint: Lady Shell.

Captain Ed shrugged his shoulders and stroked his beard and said, "No way, it's too expensive to rent a dock." It can only be disguised as a canoe. Fast and Baucus looked at each other and smiled, and Baucus waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's normal, understand." Captain Ed stroked his beard and said, "Come aboard, you two, and I'll introduce you." With that, Captain Ed took the two of them aboard, and Fast found that Captain Ed's eyes were full of melancholy, and he kept touching the edge of the boat, as gentle as caressing the face of a beloved.

Fast looked around and saw that the outside looked shiny, but the deck was covered with moss, and the tattered deck looked like a ghost ship that had not moved for hundreds of years. Captain Ide looked up and patted the mast with his hand, as if to make sure it was solid, and the mast did not move.

Captain Ed stroked his beard, looked proudly at Fast and Baus, and introduced his ship: "This is the Shell Lady, 30 magic cannons, 13 on the top deck, 17 in the cabin, she was originally a trading ship, then a tourist ship, and finally I bought it and converted it into an adventure ship. ”
