The Viniteros is a merchant ship with a three-track sail with a hull of fifty meters. On the roads of merchant ships like this, crew members often encounter "water falls."

According to the rules of sailing at sea, those who fall into the water must be rescued.

This is the rule.

Because when going to sea, accidents may occur at any time, they may become water fallers themselves. At that time, they will definitely hope that other passing ships will provide help.

So Tang An was lucky enough to be rescued on the boat, and also got a blanket and a cup of hot oyster soup with some fishy smell.

The oysters were salvaged from the sea and cooked directly on the boat. They were very fresh, especially for Tang An, who hadn't tasted this kind of delicious food for a long time.

On the boat, Tang An encountered a problem.

He couldn't understand the crew's language, not only the language, but also the words. This made Tang An suddenly realize the seriousness of the problem. If the language was not understood, no matter what he did next, he would be bound to his hands and feet.

Tang An also had a question, that is, on the initial scene, the ghost ship Mary Celester, why could he understand the various words in the captain's room?

Afterwards, Tang An analyzed that the problem may be that it was their first time entering the plot world, which was equivalent to playing a game. At the beginning, there would be guidance from a novice village or novice. Similar conveniences are benefits for first-time novice tasters.

Of course, if you enter the plot world for the second time, you may not have these "benefits".

So when Tang An faced the crew's inquiry, he could only helplessly express his speech. Tang An also knew that he had to master the language in this plot world as soon as possible.

This is crucial.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as ‘language learning book’ here, you can master a certain language in an instant. To learn, you must start from scratch.

Fortunately, after a day of understanding, Tang An found that the languages ​​in this world are not particularly complicated, a bit like English, but they are just similar. The two must be different languages.

During this period, Tang An tried to contact everyone on the boat, listened to them, looked at their expressions, and kept looking for things to read and observing the text of the world. Obviously, the fastest way to learn a language is not to read some textbooks, but to be in the environment of this language, because the situation will force you to master communication skills with others. At least you are hungry and want something to eat, and you have to ask where to go to solve the problem of shit, pee, etc.

Most of the crew members on the ship were kind, and some were willing to teach Tang An, so seven days later, Tang An could already understand some daily language and at the same time, he could do some simple communication.

The language here is called "Lasia". During this seven days, Tang An focused almost all his attention on learning this Lasia language.

However, Tang An still couldn't understand the complicated dialogue, but it was simple and there was no problem with listening. He could barely deal with it even if he said it.

Tang An was sure that if he gave himself a book in Lasia and had to study it behind closed doors for seven days, he would never be better than now, so he was very content.

There are more than 20 crew members on the Viniteros, all of whom are experienced old crew members. The captain is Hunter, and he is a very prestigious but serious person. However, Tang An rarely sees the other party on weekdays. Relatively speaking, Tang An was taken care of by the first mate Robert, and there are also several sailors. Tang An's "Lasia" can improve so quickly, and these people played a great role.

Of course, not everyone is so friendly to Tang An.

"Mr. Robert, I think that person is very suspicious. Although he was following the rules at sea to save him, it does not mean that he can trust this person. He didn't even understand our language a few days ago. I think he should be locked up first, and after he arrived at Shariputra Port, he would hand him over to the local sheriff." A voice sounded from outside, and a person was talking about Tang An with the first mate Robert.

In fact, this is not the first time Tang An has heard a similar conversation. The person who spoke was John Hawkins, the sailor on the ship.

Before, Tang An wouldn't understand what the other party was saying, but now, he can roughly understand.

"Tang, this is what John is like, he is suspicious and speaks loudly. Just don't care about him. We all know that you are not a bad person." A sailor said to Tang An.

They were resting in the cabin, and Tang An nodded at the kind sailor and said thank you in Lacian, who was not very fluent.

"Don't worry, Mr. Robert knows what to do." The sailor added, and at the same time, the long angry voice of the sailor outside sounded again: "...What do you mean that I'm too sensitive? Do good people have that kind of flintlock rifle in their hands? I mean, that man was so down and shabby, but the flintlock rifle in his hand was so exquisite... Maybe it was stolen."

"Enough, John, you are blaming a person as a thief for no reason. This is prejudice. You can't say that a person is guilty because of some speculation. You forgot that you have been on a gray-bearded boat, but now, no one will say that you are a pirate again, because that's a thing in the past, isn't it?" The first mate Robert also had dissatisfaction in his words.

Obviously, the conversation outside, or the argument, came to an end after this sentence.

Tang An could hear it, but with his current ability, he could only understand half of these words, but he could already understand the general meaning.

There is no doubt that the sailor John was ‘hostile’ towards him.

Tang An took the initiative to hand over the evil spirit flintlock rifle when he was on board the ship. This was to gain trust, but Tang An did not hand over the navigation compass that the mission items were cursed.

This thing seems more important to Tang An.

The reason why Sailor John is hostile to himself is because of this nautical compass.

Just a few days ago, after Tang An accidentally saw this compass by the other party, John's attitude became different. He came here at first and wanted to buy the compass with a stern face. Tang An naturally would not agree. Later, John wanted to rob it, but because others came in, he failed.

From then on, John began to target himself everywhere.

Others don’t know that John is just sensitive and suspicious, but in fact, Tang An knows that the other party has only one purpose for doing this.

That is the navigation compass in your own hands.

Tang An was even sure that this sailor knew the origin of this nautical compass. After knowing this, Tang An did think of a possibility, which was to find out the secret of the compass from the other party.

But this idea is unrealistic.
