Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 100: first meet

The night on the sea is actually no quieter than the daytime, the waves are surging, and while pushing each other, you hit the hull of the black arrow with bothering. The first lesson for novice seafarers is to learn to fall asleep on the ship. This is the same reason that the knight must learn to fall asleep immediately. If you ca n’t even take a rest, then talk about work. The sailors on the Black Arrow are very experienced people, and of course they understand this truth. So after leaving a few left-behind personnel, the rest of the crew returned to the cabin under the deck to rest. Even though the three-masted sailboat is much larger than most hulls, the hammock is still the resting place for most sailors. On the whole ship, the only bed was placed in the captain's room. But tonight, it does not belong to Captain Halfdan.

"As a person with a broken limb, you are in good spirits." This was the first sentence Hafdan said when he saw Losa leaning on the bedside when he returned to the captain's room.

"As a person who has just greeted the witch and is secretive, your spirits are not bad." The count replied with a smile, the sound insulation of the captain's room was not good, although not all the things happening on the deck reached him. In the ears, it's not difficult to guess a word based on the sound.

"Ear ears are not a good thing, boy. How is your female partner?" The captain walked to his desk at will, folded the charts aside and set them aside, and carefully lighted the lampshade. Candle, then opened the only leather book on the table, and the other hand rummaged the charcoal pen in the table drawer. He wanted to write a voyage diary, which is something every captain must do. And this voyage diary is often the only clue that later people knew there was such a captain in the world.

Lothar learned about this habit in his book about life at sea, but this was the first time he saw a captain doing this with his own eyes. So although all his limbs could not move, he still stretched his neck, hoping to see Hafdan ’s movements more clearly, and after a few attempts without success, the count decided to ask directly, “You can give me Look at the voyage diary? "

"Huh?" The captain smiled and turned to look at Lothar, showing his mouth full of rotten teeth. "Of course, you can watch it after I die. On the first day, go on the boat boy, you don't have any rules for this. Understand? Before the captain got out of the boat, his logbook and his life were one thing. Compared to my life, you still care about the people around you. "

"She's okay." Losa was silent for a moment after the three words, and she glanced at Networm's face. Is she really okay? Thinking of the self-proclaimed existence that I saw in the water, I finally said to myself that an unprecedented emotion began to emerge in the earl's heart, which was mixed with fear and joy, and more complicated and sticky that was difficult to distinguish. Something like honey, "She won't be okay." He said in a lighter voice like he said to himself.

"Okay, she's okay. But want me to say you have something, kid, and it's still a big deal. With all your limbs broken, what do you think this kind of person will be used for in the heartless bay? Continue to live, instead of throwing you into the sea so that I have half a bed to sleep in. "The captain scribbled down a few strokes and closed the logbook. He pushed his shoulders on the back of the chair and eyes. Looking at the candlelight in the lampshade. Under the light of the fire, the man's figure was enlarged and stretched and reflected on the wall.

"Where is my axe?" Lothar asked suddenly. With the captain pointing a finger, the count saw the axe stick protruding from the barrel beside the door. Seeing that the justice of the fool was not washed away, Losa let out a little breath, "put it in my hand, and I can go to the ground in three days. I will be able to prove my worth at that time."

Halfdan raised his eyebrows, "I thought the axe could only be used to cut off the hands and feet, but I had never heard of it as a cure."

"Only in my hands. It may be because there are very few people as stupid as me in this world." Lothar replied, remembering that the fool's justice healed his wounds when he fought against demons in Valley City Things. Since that time was ok, this battle axe will not disappoint its owner this time.

"So well, Mr. Fool, I believe your gibberish. Because you don't have a smell of alcohol when you ask, ah, it's a good habit to know that no one except the pirates will drink on board." The captain said , Smacked his mouth, and drank from the kettle on the table, "and we would rather drink the stinky water than get on the boat."

"When we get ashore, we can have a drink." The count is not resistant to wine. Although the knights are strict with themselves, they have not reached the level of drunkenness. Besides, proper drinking can boost the morale of his men. These Losa are quite clear. Perhaps it was inherited from the blood of the ancestors of the Montenegro family. Although Lothar had never drunk himself, his wine volume was surprisingly good.

"Well, I'll say this when you have money in your pocket. But I still know a few places to drink, provided that the bartenders can come back from the sea. But they are always lucky, you know, very There are few people who can refuse to go on board with wine barrels. "Captain Halfdan pouted, and obviously he was not one of those few.

"Ships carrying wine are often not far away." Lothar said. This proverb is popular in the coastal area where only a lion can go. He heard it in the fishing village.

Sure enough, the captain smiled, "That's right, kid. Wine is just a substitute. If your life is exciting enough, you don't need wine. So tell me, are you here to find excitement?"

This is a very critical question, and the answer will be related to the relationship between Losa and Halfdan. The earl realized this, but he also knew that he could not hesitate in answering this question, because hesitation means thinking, it means concealment, and it will bring suspicion. At sea, there is only one way to get rid of suspicion.

"That's right. My wife and I," he said, glancing at the networm, and he didn't notice that the latter's fingers twitched a little. "We both have some troubles, so we plan to come to Shashiwan to avoid the limelight. Of course, you have also noticed that we used to live on land, so the sea is quite strange to us. Just wait for this wave to pass ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ We will leave here and find someone we do n’t know Place to start again. "

The captain nodded, showing a meaningful expression, "I've seen a ship like you, at least one ship. It seems that the man in front of your female companion is so powerful that it can force you to look like this. But it doesn't matter Boy, I ’m welcome in Shaanxiwan. I do n’t care about my origin or purpose, but remember, the people here do n’t tell me. You ’re lucky, I just lost two sailors, if you can really say like you If you recover like that, you will be able to do some work on my boat, and you will be free when you can pay off the debts I saved you both. As for your wife, just be her, she cannot follow us to the sea, There has never been a female sailor on board. But do n’t worry, she may make more money on the shore than you, if she can be more enthusiastic. ”

Lothar's face darkened, he didn't like the joke. If this is just a joke. "No, I will make money soon. I don't think we will bother you for too long."

"Oh, I hope so." Haddan said, wrapping his belongings in a coat and opening the door of the captain's room. "Given that you live in the only luxurious room on this ship today, the cost of course Keep it on the bill and enjoy it, my respectful sir. "
