Chapter 244 Sail, set sail!
Countdown to the Soul Erosion Night: Two Days
Shiville stood on the deck, watching the bow of the ship rushing out of Bilgewater Bay in the sea breeze, and drew a white wave on the sea surface, finally coming to the vast and boundless Sea of Watchers.
Now that she can be here, I have to thank the kind-hearted Tam.
Because of its help, Shiville left Bilgewater in time, and bought several boxes of leather and dry goods, filling half a cargo hold. These things have a good sales in Shurima and will definitely make a fortune.
"Finally left this damn ghost place."
Bilgewater gave Shiville a bad impression and didn't like it everywhere, but there was actually another area that could be considered a real ghost place.
Shadow Island!
The bow of the ship was facing the southeastern Shadow Island, the source of Shiver's uneasiness.
But now the sea is calm and the waves are calm. Who can think that the black fog will completely cover the sea the next night?
"Turn right, the sails are full!" Shiville gave the order, and the sailors on standby left and became busy. Soon she saw a pirate sail hanging on the mast, and the originally rippled pirate sail had been replaced.
"Showing,!"
Everyone has work to do except for something that is not eye-catching.
"Sir Captain, we're out of Bilgewater now, it's time to pay taxes."
A sailor mustered up the courage to come over and spoke to Shiville in fear.
They have seen this captain's method. The last sailor who saw that the captain didn't understand the market and had a big mouthful of lions had been thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
"Pay taxes? I didn't pass the port, and I didn't get ashore. What taxes did I pay? Do you really think I don't understand anything?"
These sailors were making trouble, and Shiville had no good expression to them, and his voice was raised like a raging wave.
Looking back suddenly, my eyes were cold. If the sailor couldn't tell any reasonable reasons, I'm afraid there would be no good ending.
"Tith, this is Bilgewater's tradition, and every ship going out to sea will throw a coin into the sea to pray to the bearded lady for the peace of her journey."
Facing Hill's questioning, the sailor was sweating coldly, as if he had swam a circle with a shark in the sea, and was soaked all over.
"I don't owe Ms. Bearded, why should I give it money?" Shiville thought for a while and refused.
Shiville still has some money, but when she thinks of what Tam said, she doesn't want to follow the customs and abide by this tradition. In her opinion, this is a true saying that she throws the money into the sea. Anyway, she is about to leave here.
Since Sheville had no trustworthy person on the ship, he did not have a position like a first mate, and she had absolute right to speak on the ship.
If anyone disobeys and refuses to follow, he will die!
The sailor did nothing wrong, saved his life, returned to his post in disappointment, and told everyone about the news that he had failed to persuade the captain to pay tithes tax.
The weird atmosphere began to spread on board.
"This is the first time I have seen a captain who does not pay tithes. What happens if he does not pay tithes?" asked a sailor.
"Do you know the tith tax? Everyone knows that tith tax will not be paid, and the sea will be shaking! It is rumored that ships that do not pay tith tax will encounter huge waves, run into reefs, and encounter sea monsters. Anyway, the ship will be destroyed in the end, and I will go to see the bearded lady."
"Strange words, aren't all the things you're talking about that you might encounter when going out to sea?"
"What if a big man in a diving suit drags your boat down the sea?"
"You say Nothillus? He is just a teleportation. I wouldn't believe it without seeing it with my own eyes. How could a human be so powerful?"
"Don't believe it? Then did your former captain pay tithes in front of you?"
"Yes! He handed it every time."
"That's all. I'd rather believe it than believe it. If I want to tell you, would you better ask the captain to talk about this matter?"
"Don't worry, I want to live. I finally found a boat that went to sea at this time. I lost the house a few days ago. If I didn't leave Bilgewater, I wouldn't be able to stand it."
The whispers of the sailors in the cabin were like rats, and they would not be heard by Shiville.
The sailboat left Bilgewater, and the air was no longer smelly, and Shiville asked to the gentle sea breeze that caressed her cheeks:
"I don't know what Geno is doing. I just left like this. Will he blame me?"
Haifeng couldn't answer her questions, so she stopped loving her nostalgia and turned around and walked into the captain's room.
It's boring to be alone, so it's better to have a good sleep.
The sea still looks calm, but in a place where no one can see it, under the deep sea and above the sea bed, a pair of elephant legs have pulsated, and what comes with the sound of an iron anchor dragging integrated into the undercurrent.
...
When Shiville woke up, he suddenly found that the light in the captain's room was much dimmed.
This shocked her. She thought she had slept for more than a day, encountered black fog, and was abandoned by light.
When she hurried to the deck, she found that it had just changed the sky, and the clouds filled the entire sky during her nap.
After a while, ripples appeared on the sea surface. The sailors shouted that it was raining, and hurriedly put away the sails and hid back into the cabin.
Except Sivir.
Shiville can't swim, but she likes raining quite a bit, because maybe a drop of water in this rain came from Shurima.
She stood on the deck and was baptized by God. The rare source of water in the desert is now falling from the sky like a lack of money.
OK, there is no money.
Shiville was in good health and wouldn't catch a cold and had a fever so easily, but she felt as if she had visions. She saw a beam of light coming from under the dim sea, passing by the hull and flashing.
She suspected that water had fallen into her eyes.
Shiville pulled a head of watery hair behind his head, walked to the edge of the boat, and stretched his head to look down at the bottom of the boat.
At this moment, a huge splash of water exploded on the sea in front of her. She quickly retreated because a silence of cold light flashed among the splashes and suddenly hit her!
She almost avoided the sneak attack and was almost washed by water. She grabbed the weapon with lingering fear and cheered up and woke up from the chaos after getting up.
She looked at the thing that smashed her original standing position and shook the entire ship and found that it turned out to be an anchor full of rust on kelp!
A thick iron chain hung at the end of the anchor, extending into the seabed, as if it was held in the hand of some giant.
Drizzle, raindrops fall on the deck.
The metal scratched the hull.
It was also accompanied by the screams of some sailors.
As the chain was pulled, the anchor hooked the ship and fell along one side, and the accumulated water on the deck also rushed to the lower side, and the entire ship tilted to the naked eye!
The scream was even louder, like cheering during tug of war, as shocking as it was…
Chapter completed!
