Chapter 5: The Night Wind

The boat was quiet, Yue'er also poked her head out to look down, not to mention the stars, they had already crowded together, and they were worried that there was no place.

Benniel pondered for a long time, and finally said in a very gentlemanly manner: "In that case, then welcome Miss Navigator aboard." ”

"Captain, I'm afraid this will ......" Manha wanted to refuse, he had been hurt by a woman, so he didn't want a woman to get on the boat.

"Don't talk about Manha, it's my decision. Benniel didn't give him a chance to give his opinion, patted him on the shoulder, and then said to the rest of the group, "Okay, let's all pack up, and we'll leave tomorrow morning." Where's the vice-captain?, the guy who told you to hurry up and pack up these buckets, and give me the other boat, I don't want to see this bunch of stupid pirate ships, it's so useless. ”

"Helmsman, take care of your stinky hands, don't be unable to turn the rudder tomorrow. Everybody get moving, don't be lazy, you two big monsters......"

Benniel commanded his men, drooling.

The diligent sailors, as well as the marauders, immediately got into action. They carried the body to another ship, threw the unused things on it, and burned it to the ground.

Soon a lone wisp of smoke rose from the sea, like a dragon, reaching into the sky.

The lovely Miss Navigator ripped off the hood on her head, revealing her jet-black and shiny hair, smiled, and then stretched out her hand to Xiang Yu, "Hello, I'm Erin, your Miss Navigator, we are now companions." ”

Xiang Yu had to stretch out his hand to shake hands with her, "Hello, I'm Xiang Yu, and I'm willing to be your companion." ”

Although I was very unhappy and almost died, I survived.

"Can you give me a brief introduction to our ship?" Erin had come to see herself as her new owner.

"There's nothing to introduce, that's it. "Xiang Yucai walked out of the ghost gate, and he didn't seem to say anything to others.

"Heh, you're such a cold guy. Erin pouted.

"If you were blackmailed by me and almost died, I don't think you would be so enthusiastic about me. Xiang Yu complained.

"I can't help that, you know, I almost died. Erin said.

"So, we are still friends in life and death?"

"If you don't mind, so to speak. Erin laughed.

"I'm sorry, I mind. Xiang Yu rolled his eyes, then walked over to Claire, "Okay, you can play by yourself, I still have work to do." yes, Claire, we've got to wipe the floor again. ”

Claire's face was full of guilt, "I'm sorry, I didn't do anything just now. ”

"You've done a great job. Xiang Yu patted him on the shoulder.

"???" Claire was puzzled.

"You didn't do anything, you didn't make any accidents, and that helped me. Of course, this matter has nothing to do with you in the first place. "Xiang Yu is still very open-minded about these things.

"Excuse me, where am I sleeping?" asked Erin.

"There is no extra space in the cabin. Xiang Yu said bluntly.

"And where do you sleep?" asked Erin.

"I ...... What do you mean?" Xiang Yu had a bad premonition.

"I think I'll have to sleep with you anymore. Erin looked at him with two big eyes purring.

"Oh no, I don't like sleeping with women, so you'd better find someone else. Xiang Yu immediately refused.

"That's not going to work, I have to sleep in your bed tonight, and if you don't want to, you can find your own place again. Erin said nonchalantly.

"You...... Well, I see, since you want to sleep with me, then I'll sleep with you, I don't really care, even if I hold you at night, I don't mind. Xiang Yu suddenly understood Erin's intentions, and simply followed her.

"Hmph, you can hold a dead man's head. Erin was a little annoyed that she didn't succeed in competing for a bed.

Claire asked cautiously, "Why don't we squeeze in?"

"Get out!" Erin was in a bad mood and wouldn't give face to Claire just because she was good-looking.

Xiang Yu patted his good friend on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, she's not the kind of person you think, let's do our own thing." ”

Claire took a deep look at Erin, then took the mop rag and Xiang Yu to start cleaning again.

That's what they're supposed to do, day after day, without stopping.

......

The dirty, not scalpy blood adhered to the deck and was difficult to clean, so Xiang Yu had to kneel on the ground and poke it with his fingernails and scrape it with a mop. He's always been a hard-working worker, and when he's halfway there, Claire has only gotten a head up.

What can he say when he sees his good friend like this. After all, his good friend is different from him, he is not a poor boy living in a slum, and he has not lost his father and family since he was a child. So he understands his best friend's clumsiness and the psychology of waiting for his rescue.

There's no shame in that, knowing that you can't do it, knowing that you can't do it yourself, of course you have to find someone to help.

So the kind-hearted Xiang Yu had no choice but to help Claire get it after finishing his own. Claire smiled at him, smiling like a child, and said thank you repeatedly.

Xiang Yu liked this feeling very much, just like the kind people he had met before, every time those good people rewarded him with some coins or food, he would say thank you repeatedly, and then look at them with a satisfied smile, and he naturally smiled himself.

How can anyone be unhappy when he has done a good deed, and how can he be unhappy if he has received alms and can live?

By the end of the night, the enemy ship had burned to the ground, and the flying crew had fallen asleep. Claire staggered back to her room with her tired body, then collapsed into her hammock, fell to a comfortable sleep, and quickly fell asleep.

And Xiang Yu was a little later, he had to talk about all the tools, otherwise tomorrow the captain, or whoever came there, would scold him. He doesn't like to be scolded, but unlike others, he doesn't hate being scolded because of his self-esteem, but because every time he is scolded, he thinks of his previous days, and he doesn't have a meal. It was a hard time, and it took him a long time to get through.

But now it's good, at least I'm well fed, there's a lot of stuff on board, and every once in a while I buy it, oranges, vegetables, bread, bacon...... The food was plentiful, especially the fish. There are a few fishing experts on the boat, and it only takes half a day to catch hundreds of catties.

According to Zhang Dou, he fished half of Li Peng in one afternoon, and half of the fan was to describe pigs, and it was obvious that Zhang Dou often teased his partner, but everyone on the boat knew that they had the best relationship.

Just like Claire always thinks that he and Xiang Yu have a relationship in the end.

But Xiang Yu never thought so, he knew his identity very well, what qualifications did a homeless child and a little beggar have to be friends with a young master. It's just that his approach is often to treat the other party as a good friend, but there will always be a crack in his heart, and that is his dignity.

At this moment, he staggered to find his good friend, and after finding that his good friend was asleep, he was ready to fall down and fall asleep. But when he fell, he found the hammock floppy, as if there was something on it.

He knew that there was nothing on his bed, only a blackened blanket, but the blanket would not be so soft.

He immediately stood up, and then the blanket also happened to rub his eyes and stood up, "What are you doing?"

Xiang Yuyi guessed that it was Erin, this very troublesome woman really came to occupy his bed, but he couldn't lie in the same bed with her as he said himself. Because he knew that Irene's identity was actually very good, and he could see it by looking at her white and tender face that had been washed.

The faces of girls from civilian families are not so white and tender, even if they are pampered. A good face must require a lot of money to maintain, even if it is naturally beautiful, it will inevitably be left traces by the years of life, but the rich can leave this trace the shallower.

It is clear that Erin is like this, her face is very white and tender, like a freshly peeled egg, and her eyes are very clear, like the water of Princess Lake, without any impurities, and the water is smart.

This must be a carefree girl since she was a child, otherwise she wouldn't have looked so unworldly.

Xiang Yu shook his shoulders, didn't say anything, walked out of the room, left his bed with the "eldest lady", and then came to the deck he had just cleaned.

There was a pile of rope next to the deck, and a lot of miscellaneous items, which could last a night underneath, wasn't that how he had come before?

He had never slept in a bed when he was in the slums, and the benches in the park were his best bed, but they didn't allow him to sleep all the time. Because Officer Wilson always likes to lead his "son" on patrol, once he finds out that the bench is occupied, his son will go crazy and chase and bite.

Xiang Yu has been chased many times, but fortunately, he has never been caught up, which is probably the biggest regret of Wilson's son's life.

As for what will happen if you are really caught up and bitten to death. Wilson once said publicly that the lives of untouchables are like weeds and are worthless.

Xiang Yu was deeply touched by this, many of his "colleagues" died under the weeding task of Officer Wilson, and there was no chance to resist, and of course the officers did not have a chance to repent, who would repent of the death of a bunch of weeds.

So when the captain and those "companions" who had lived with him for half a year saw him being held hostage, not only did they not show any concern or worry, but they even thought that the play was not lively and intense enough, and offered to "help", he was not surprised at all.

Because he's used to it, who's going to show him a little kindness? probably Claire's apology afterwards and his smile when he's lucky.

Xiang Yu never complains about anything, he believes that suffering always follows, which is the unchanging truth in the world. It's just that he's more special, and he suffers more.

"Ahh

"Isn't that thanks to you? you slept in my place, and of course I had to sleep here. ”

"Well, I thought you'd go and squeeze with the others after you found out that I had taken your place, but I didn't expect you to sleep outside, cold?" said Erin with some guilt.

"Ahh This is probably the first time Xiang Yu has heard someone ask him if he is cold, and he is the first person to care about him after his grandmother.

This should be considered a concern, right?

"Alas, I wouldn't have robbed you if I had known you like this, and those people found out that you had no place to sleep, wouldn't they let you squeeze it? Erin pouted. This little beauty with a little yellow blood pouted, she looked very good-looking, and sure enough, good water and good rice can raise good people.

"Aren't they pirates, isn't it normal to be cold-blooded? How can they be so kind?" Xiang Yu was used to it, and on the first day of piracy in Shanghai, he understood that life at sea is cold, and people are also cold.

I also want to be blown by the sea, and people will get cold.

"Then why are you so kind? Give me back your place. Erin crouched down and asked, her voice like a oriole in the hollow.
