Chapter 6: The Spirits

Xiang Yu fell into the bundle of ropes, smelling the smell of seawater emitted from it, bitter and stuffy.

"I don't have good intentions, I just don't want to fight with you. "Tell the truth to Yu.

"Why don't you fight?" asked Erin.

"Because...... It's troublesome, and I don't think it's necessary, I can sleep anywhere anyway. Xiang Yu lay quietly inside, and he would get used to this kennel as long as he slept for ten minutes.

"It's not that you don't think it's necessary, it's that you don't like to fight, you don't have the competitive spirit, you don't have the spirit of a man. Erin spoke her mind.

"You say yes, yes. ”

Xiang Yu's answer undoubtedly confirmed her statement, but she didn't like it. She doesn't like men who don't have a man's air, which is obviously very different from the heroes she sees in books.

The books she reads are all heroic romances, or biographies of big people, and those characters are amazing, all of them are competitive, and exude a strong mesmerizing male atmosphere.

But Xiang Yu didn't, he was like a sack, just placed there, and he wouldn't object to anything he said.

Erin didn't like men like that, and she didn't think men should be.

"Don't you know what you mean by saying yes, don't you know how to resist, don't you know how to defend yourself and maintain your image?"

"I don't know, I don't think there's anything to maintain, that's what I'm like. ”

"You can't hold up to the wall!" said Erin, an old saying, very excessive, she thought that she should be angry like this.

But Xiang Yu's temper was outrageously good, he still didn't get angry, just said lightly: "It's good if you only make a puddle of mud, it can be regarded as a corner to rely on." ”

Erin found that Xiang Yu's expression had changed, and like the street children she had given alms in the past, she had low requirements for life, and only a little benefit could be satisfied.

Such people are not good, but they can't be wrong, and this is not what they want.

So Erin knew that what she said earlier was a bit excessive, so she apologized graciously, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper." ”

"Nothing. Xiang Yu had already closed his eyes, "It's going to set sail tomorrow, you should go back to sleep." ”

Erin was a little sleepy, but she wasn't going back to sleep, so she asked softly, "Why did you go to sea and become a pirate?"

"Because ......" Xiang Yu opened his eyes and wondered what the answer to this question was. So he remembered it well, and remembered that it was still the tavern, and he heard about the other sea, and then somehow he walked to the port, and at that time the Feiyang had just docked, and was still recruiting floor cleaners, and some people said that pirates were all eating and drinking, and everyone was not worried about eating.

He found the key point - not worrying about eating.

What could be more appealing to someone who is constantly hungry?

He paused and said, "Because I don't have to worry about eating." ”

"That's it?" said Irene, who was far from what she had thought of a great man. She even felt that this was too narrow, how could a person only have this pursuit. Shouldn't it be to swim the sea, chasing the sun, moon and stars?

"That's enough, for me. ”

"Okay. Erin understood the poor fellow, and at the same time felt a little less guilty about him. But then she asked, "Do you know the sea of the sea?"

"Yes. ”

"Then if you find the other sea, what do you want to have, what do you want to achieve?money, power, power, or women~" Erin asked curiously.

"I ......" Xiang Yu thought for a moment, and then said the truth, "I don't have anything, so I want everything." ”

"Huh?" Erin smiled, "I thought you weren't ambitious, but now it seems that you are the most ambitious, and you want the most." Giggles. ”

She remembered clucking, like a hen that had just laid eggs.

"What about you?"

"I, I...... Don't tell you. Erin laughed mischievously, then stood up and prepared to go back to the cabin, "Alright, I'll go back, you take care of yourself, don't get sick from the wind." Also, thank you very much for the hammock. ”

She made a hat salute and went into the cabin on tiptoe.

"Don't be sick by the wind?" Xiang Yu repeated, and then felt the wind blowing on the deck, which was indeed a little cold.

He shrunk back and began to pay attention to his body.

......

At almost dawn, Xiang Yu, who was already asleep, suddenly woke up, and immediately ran to the side of the boat. He heard the call of the spirits, and it was the creatures of the sea calling him.

The creatures claimed to be the spirits, and they were sometimes sharks, whales, tuna, floating jellyfish, and brainless sunfish......

They are always varied, they look the same as ordinary aquatic creatures, but in fact they are different, a certain part of their body will glow, glowing that blue light, and the light marks are like some symbols, a bit like some star maps, dots and lines connect the kind, and like some ancient symbols, such as oracle bones......

All in all, they look extremely mysterious, and this is the only difference in appearance between them and ordinary fish.

Xiang Yu lay on the side of the boat, struggling to look into the water, the sea water at night was very calm, and he could see anything in the water clearly, not to mention that the spirit could still shine.

This time the spirit was a killer whale, a behemoth that swung its tail and stirred up huge waves, and seemed to be in high spirits.

"Spirit, you're here again?" shouted Xiang Yuxiang to the killer whale.

He was able to talk to the Spirits, and was currently the first crew member on the Flappy to see and communicate with the Spirits. He had never mentioned it to anyone, not even Claire.

It was only on the night he first got on the boat, leaning on the side of the boat and contemplating his life, that he discovered these lovely things and somehow communicated with them.

Until now, he had spoken to the spirits six times, and each time the spirits would tell him something urgent, such as waves, tornadoes, earthquakes in Haiti......

At first, Xiang Yu didn't believe much, but it wasn't until the first three times were perfectly confirmed that he knew the "vast power" of these ancestors.

This time he saw the spirit again, and instinctively thought that there was some calamity.

"Is something going to happen? a tornado or a tsunami, an earthquake, a typhoon?"

Xianling swam and said a woman-like voice through his nose, "There is an earthquake at the bottom of the sea, a huge tsunami is coming, hurry up and dodge, hurry up and dodge, if you don't dodge, you will be drowned, if you don't dodge, you will be drowned......"

The spirit swam happily, as if to say something happy, like a magpie in the morning.

But Xiang Yu's heart sank, he knew that the spirit would not lie to him, if the spirit said that there was a tsunami, there would definitely be a tsunami.

"No, I'll have to call the captain. ”

Xiang Yu thought in his heart, then said thank you to the ancestors, and hurriedly went to the second floor of the building ship and went to the captain's private room.

"It's a pleasure to serve you, I'm leaving. The spirit shook its tail and happily sank to the bottom of the sea, and the blue mark on its back gradually dissipated when it dived to a position thirty-three meters below the sea, and then the spirit shook its head as if it had been beaten in the head, and quickly went into the deep sea, just like ordinary killer whales.

The captain was studying his chart, and he seemed to have found the location of the dragon's lair, and now he only had to put together the broken chart in the middle, and the route would be complete, and he would be able to find the dragon's lair.

If you want to find the other sea, you must first find the dragon's lair, which is the accepted rule, or rather premise, of sea chasers.

He stood at the mahogany table, his fingers sliding over and over the course as if they were sailing for him.

"Captain, are you there? Xiang Yu shouted outside, and the voice was terrifying.

Captain Benniel frowned, he hated being interrupted while he was imagining, especially by a floor cleaner. But since his crew had come looking for him, he had to take a look, which was his duty as captain.

He put away the navigation chart, stuffed it into his arms, then pulled out the Western sword, kicked the door open, and rebuked angrily: "If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what the hell is your name, if you don't give me a convincing reason, I will immediately throw you into the sea to feed the fish." ”

This "kind" captain always takes such care of his crew, but fortunately Xiang Yu has adapted to it. He pointed to the east and said, "There's a tsunami coming, we have to get out of here." ”

"Huh, tsunami?" the captain looked east, and the wind was calm and peaceful. He thought it must be this nasty stinky rat who was fixing himself, not waking up in the middle of the night, going crazy.

So he grabbed Xiang Yu's shirt and said angrily: "You annoying stinky little ghost, you dare to make fun of me, haven't you woken up? ”

Saying that, he was like carrying a dog and lifted him to the side of the ship, trying to push him down.

"Captain, what I'm saying is true, the tsunami is really coming, and if we don't leave here, we're all going to die. ”

Xiang Yu said sincerely. The poor little face was so red that tears were about to burst out.

Benniel fell silent when he saw the little guy like this. He knew that Xiang Yu would not lie to himself, this little guy didn't have the guts, but what the little guy said made him a little unconvinced, how could a tsunami come for no reason? There is no warning, and how do you know that there is a tsunami?

"You said there's a tsunami coming?"

"Yes, it will come soon. ”

"How do you know? Don't tell me you knew it in a dream. ”

Xiang Yu wanted to hide the matter of the ancestors, so he prepared an excuse early, which was to dream. But now that the captain had said so, he could only give up this excuse and change his words:

"It's because I found out...... The wind was not in the right direction, and there was a strange smell that I remembered, every time before a tsunami, I could smell it. ”

Xiang Yu used to be in the slums, and lying was a piece of cake for him. And the reason he found was well-founded, there were really navigators in the sea who could find some information that was difficult for ordinary people to find by observing the direction of the wind and smelling the smell.

Benniel naturally knew this, so he saw that what Xiang Yu said was so true, and he had to start thinking about it carefully.

He looked up at the pirate flag fluttering in the air, two skeletons perched on an eagle's head, fluttering in the wind, looking the same as usual.

"The captain can't hesitate any longer, the tsunami is really coming soon, and it's too late if you don't leave. ”

Xiang Yu pleaded again.

But Bennier was still thinking about it, his idea was to leave early tomorrow morning, so it would be auspicious, and he didn't have a reason to listen to a floor cleaner.

"Captain!" Xiang Yu had to shout again, hoping that the captain would listen to him.

But then, before Benniel could reply, the fluttering pirate flag suddenly fluttered in a different direction, and as if the two corners were being pulled by hand, they were pulled straight and whirring.

The wind changed direction and became much stronger.
