Of course, the sea god''s rope is no stranger to sailors who walk on the sea all the year round. Even if they have not seen the famous curse of the sea with their own eyes, they will get relevant information in the tavern or in the chat of old sailors. Different from other anecdotes on the sea, the sea god''s rope is one of the few things that are indeed recognized by all people. There is even a rubbing painting on the tavern in lost heart bay that is treasured by the boss. It is said that it was developed from some unfortunate ghost who was killed by the God of the sea.
However, this does not mean that sailors have ignored the sea god''s rope. This curse is regarded by superstition as an extremely ominous omen in navigation. It means that the ship has sailed into the sea where mortals should not sail, so the God of the sea dropped a curse among the crew as a warning. Now the sailors began to whisper uneasily at the sight of a large number of strange patterns on Lothar. Even the first mate, who had always been calm, bared his teeth and walked to the captain''s ear. "Should we throw him back into the sea, sir?"
The captain sniffed. Instead of answering his crew immediately, the captain went to Lothar''s side and stirred the latter''s body with the side of his machete. "Why do we call this thing the sea god''s rope?" He said suddenly, confusing the sailors around him.
"It''s because it strangles people like a sling." The chief officer seemed to understand what the captain meant and went over. The man, who was about two laps stronger than the captain, tore the count''s clothes directly, revealing the muscle distribution and more lines under the clothes which were not in accordance with the sailor''s identity.
"Then this thing is not the sea god''s rope. In this way, it should be called the sea god''s armor. Look at these lines. If the boy didn''t do it himself, they didn''t mean to hang him at all. " Said the captain, standing up, as if certain. He turned to his crew and said, "Poseidon doesn''t intend to kill him, or we won''t find him. He''s not cursed, he''s blessed by the ocean, and we''ll share it when we find him. "
In just two words, the uneasiness of the crew disappeared, and even excited by the ethereal grace of the sea god. After all, there is no sailor who is not superstitious when he is wandering in the helpless sea, and how to explain the phenomena beyond common sense to guide the superstition of his subordinates is also the ability that the captain must master. After finishing the work of appeasement, the captain whispered to the first mate, "take these two men to my room and give them back their personal belongings. Let''s forget the weapons."
"Yes, sir. Do you want to let the ship doctor see this man? There are too many fractures on his body. I''m afraid there will be problems when carrying them
"Look at me! That bastard knows about amputation except he can drink and let us eat fruit! If he had not known how to stop bleeding, I would have let him feed the fish
The chief officer shrugged his shoulders. Since the captain''s leg was amputated in a naval battle, he has been quite skeptical about the role of the ship''s doctors on board. However, in fact, there are no serious doctors on such ships. Even if there are, the poor and simple life at sea can not provide enough materials and places for professional medical professionals to play their skills. It is quite different to sew wounds on a bumpy deck and in a quiet operating room. "You, you, you, you, follow me and carry them to the captain''s cabin. Keep your hands and feet clean. Don''t look like you haven''t seen a woman before. " The chief mate called several sailors who were more careful in their work to help, but he did not forget to remind him. This is also no way to do things, in lost heart Bay, even if it is a drift warbler than other areas of the same industry more rigid. And all this is because of the natural rejection of men by the witches who rule the city.
The captain was relieved when he finished handling the three newly fished parallel cargoes. He squinted at the front of the ship and could see some land emerging under the fading sea water. This is a good sign that lost heart Bay is about to be seen again. But this is also a kind of urge for him. If he wants to land in lost heart Bay after ebb tide, he and his ship must be faster. "Children! Listen up, this time we''re coming in from this forbidden area for the first landing! As long as we can succeed, there will be no business to do in the past few years, and then you can get whatever you want! " Cheers and cheering responses began to reverberate before the captain''s voice fell.
As for the so-called first landing, this is actually a long-standing tradition of lost heart Bay. All along, as a gathering place for sailors, pirates and merchants, people in lost heart Bay attach great importance to the development of navigation technology. On the one hand, this has contributed to the developed shipbuilding technology here, on the other hand, it has also made seafarers who are skilled in navigation become the most popular talents. How to judge the quality of seafarers? There may be many ways for experienced sailors, but for businessmen, the criteria for judging by experience are too vague. They want to have a clearer selection threshold. Therefore, some discerning businessmen thought that the sea conditions after each tsunami ebb tide were extremely complex, and many captains would wait for the tide to finish before returning to sea for safety. However, during every ebb tide period, some people return to lost heart Bay ahead of time for various reasons. In this case, those who can arrive alive often have excellent navigation skills. For a long time, businessmen began to be more willing to establish cooperative relations with such captains and ships. Under such a background, if they are lucky enough to be the first ship to return to lost heart bay at low tide, they will become the target of everyone''s pursuit. You don''t need to look for business and financial channels, and they will take the initiative to deliver them to your door every day.This is the captain''s idea. He knows what impact his short legs will have, and although he can still rely on prosthetics now, it is not a long-term solution. In three or five years at most, his right leg will be completely incapacitated. A sailor who has lost his navigation ability has no value in lost heart Bay. So what he wants to do is to make him a pot full of money before he becomes such a waste, and then he can buy a manor in the surrounding countries with the money, and then he will have a comfortable life. This landing plan is the best plan he can think of. To this end, he even urged the crew to cross this part of the sea area strictly prohibited by the witch group, in order to be closer to victory than other peers peeping at the first throne.
The sea breeze calmed down, and the wind was favorable for the boat. The captain took hold of the wooden rudder again, looked at the crew on the deck, and roared in a broken Gong voice, "lower the main sail! Since the sea god has sent us a sign, let the sea breeze give us a ride! This time, we will be the richest sailors in the lost heart bay
"Yo ho! Whoa The ship song echoes in the seafarers'' mouths. Their actions make the whole ship like a whole. Under the leadership of the captain as the brain, he finds his own way back and starts to make rapid progress towards the goal. The captain felt the sea breeze blowing on his chest, and the smile of his mouth rose uncontrollably. He almost saw the indignation of other people when they saw their flag planted on the shore.
But just as the ship sailed along the course, a few black spots approached from the sky in their distance. This is one of the forbidden areas designated by the witches for unknown reasons, but there is a rumor that there are clues to the secret fortress of witches in these forbidden areas. So these forbidden areas are also known as the witch''s backyard.
