Chapter 118 [Storm] (1)
Hook reached out and pointed to a position on the ship's deck.
Chen Daolin turned his head and looked at it. There was something quietly placed beside the side of the ship - this was a cannon!
He looked at it for a few seconds and lost interest - it was obviously a very old-fashioned cannon. In reality, Chen Daolin had only seen this in museums.
"I killed One-eyed one-eyed this time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to survive in Dean Port in the future." Hook smiled bitterly: "One-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-ey
Hook said this, his tone was helpless: "This cannon is in the hands of one-eyed people. His relationship in Port Dean is so great that no one will cause trouble for him. But if the one-eyed person dies, this cannon is a hot fire charcoal in the hands of anyone else, and must not be kept! Otherwise, it would be a way to cause disaster!"
He looked at Chen Daolin's eyes and whispered: "Imperial Military Law: Private firearms are sold without mercy! Except for the Imperial Army, no noble private army or group organization is allowed to possess artillery privately! If this artillery dares to show up, it will immediately attract the killing of naval patrol warships. Moreover, it is absolutely a dead end to the military law! Those who sell artillery privately to one-eyed people, once they learn that one-eyed people are dead at sea, they will inevitably be anxious to investigate the whereabouts of this artillery! They will definitely come to me and seek back this artillery... Even if I don't greedy for this artillery and are willing to return it, those people will definitely try their best to kill me to silence me!"
Chen Daolin sighed, nodded, and glanced at Captain Hook again: "So, what are your plans?"
"This trip to sea is a big deal." Hook shook his head, his expression was a little desolate, and he sighed: "Everything happened on my boat, Mario brought people to rebel against me, and I was already disheartened at that time. Later, I was very grateful for your saving my life. But I don't want to continue doing this business at sea. When I went back to sea, I planned to quietly go back to pick up my family, dismiss my subordinates, and leave Dean Port, and go far away from now on, live incognito. Fortunately, I have been working on the sea for half my life, and I have some savings, so I don't have to worry about my future life."
Although Hu Ke said this calmly, Chen Daolin still saw a hint of worry and reluctance from his eyes.
After all, it was hard for the tough guy who had been fighting on the sea for half his life to retire, and he was forced to flee in such a mess. Besides, he had been scattered throughout his life, but ended up with such a shameful ending, which was a hero who was short of breath.
Chen Daolin sighed and smiled bitterly: "It seems that I hired you to go to sea, but you were hit by..."
"No." Hook shook his head and interrupted Chen Daolin's words. He laughed a few times and said loudly: "Mr. Darling, you don't need to say such words. I know very well that this matter has nothing to do with you. Even if you didn't hire my ship to go to sea this time, I have already formed a deep hatred with that one-eyed person, and sooner or later, a battle will break out. This is inevitable. Besides, he has bribed my subordinates. If you weren't on the ship this time, I would have died now. I am a man of Hook. Although I have never read any books, the truth can be clearly distinguished. You are very grateful to me Hook."
Chen Daolin reached out and patted his shoulder, not saying anything more.
"No matter what, you are the last passenger of me, Hook. I have to complete your entrusted work this time." Hook is also a man from the world. Although he was a little sad, he turned his face and suppressed those emotions and laughed: "We have a beginning and an end!"
Chen Daolin smiled, looked at the heroic man in front of him, and smiled silently.
...
Chen Daolin took out the navigation chart and handed it to Hooker, indicating his destination above. Hooker first frowned when he saw this roughly drawn map.
Chen Daolin immediately understood and smiled, "This picture was drawn by me by myself. I am not very good at this matter. The paintings are a little rougher. Hook laughed on the boat."
Hu Ke waved his hand and shook his head and said, "Our men at sea are not those scholars and scholars. If you draw something, you should pay attention to whether it is good or not. As long as you understand the meaning, you should look good." Then he looked a little serious and looked at Chen Daolin: "But there is a question, I don't know if you have answered it."
"Please say it."
"This picture..." Hook sighed: "Mr. Darling, where did you get this map? Is it easy to say about the origin?"
"According to it, I got it by chance." Chen Daolin said slowly, "Is there anything wrong with this map?"
"Yeah." Hook nodded, and his fingers drew a circle in the direction of the destination on the map, and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, Hook has been living on this sea for many years. I have to travel dozens of times a year on this route. From the east of Half Moon Island, it is a bit exaggerated. I can draw the sea terrain of this area with my eyes closed. In this area, where there are reefs and small islands, I am familiar with the old Hook. But I have never heard of the place you drew on this map. I remember that I have traveled many times to this place here..."
As he said that, his finger focused on the location of the destination: "There is nothing here, it's just a sea."
Hook looked up and said, "You are going here, what are you looking for?"
Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.
He really couldn't answer this question. Because even he himself didn't know what the destination was, and he himself didn't know what he was looking for.
"Is there any other island here...?"
"No!" Hook replied very clearly and simply: "Stop talking about islands, there is not even an island!"
Chen Daolin pondered for a moment, and after thinking, he looked at Hook: "Captain Hook, I can't answer you this question now. In short, just sail according to the signs on the map. When you get to the place, you will naturally see the truth."
Hook nodded, because Chen Daolin's identity as a magician has always been full of mystery. Since the other party did not have a clear answer, but his attitude was so firm, he simply stopped asking.
...
After Captain Hook looked at the navigation chart, he judged that it would take about two or three days to sail to the destination on the map - this was because they got the pirate ship, which was faster than Hook's original ship.
Next, the ship sailed for two days and two nights. Hookhao controlled the pirate sailors on the ship. With his many years of skills and means at sea, he obeyed these guys in a perfect way, and no one dared to make trouble.
Chen Daolin returned to the cabin to accumulate energy. During this period, he went to see the Daglish.
Although poor Daglish was released, washed clean, changed into clean clothes, and had enough food and drink, the scholar was still frightened when he saw Chen Daolin, and he didn't know what the magician in front of him would do with him.
Chen Daolin had no time to think about Daglish for the time being, but he just arranged this guy to live in a cabin, and did not prohibit him from walking. Without Chen Daolin's warning, Daglish did not dare to tell anyone about the breeding of pearls. He was a scholar, so he naturally knew that if this huge wealth was leaked out, it would be easy to attract the covetousness of others.
Chen Daolin was quiet for the time being, but Lodell, when facing Chen Daolin, had a calm face and looked at him coldly. Chen Daolin was not in the mood to make the young lady happy, so he simply turned a blind eye. During this period, he just checked Chuck's injuries, chatted with Barossa for a few words, and then closed his eyes and rested.
This battle also consumed a lot of magic power. It is important to meditate and restore your spirit at this time.
It was at noon the next day that Chen Daolin woke up from his meditation state.
As soon as he woke up, he immediately felt something was wrong.
At this time, Chen Daolin, after becoming a magician, had much stronger mental power than ordinary people and was extremely sensitive to the subtle changes in the surrounding things. After he woke up, he immediately felt that the hull seemed to be shaking a little powerfully when he was sailing on the sea.
This change was not very obvious. Anyway, since I went to sea, the boat would always bump along the sea, and no one cared about it, but Chen Daolin noticed something was vague.
He gave Barossa a few words and immediately ran out of the cabin.
As soon as he walked on the deck, Chen Daolin felt a strong sense of moisture and stuffiness coming from the air, as if the humidity of the air was extremely high, almost making people feel as if they were about to become sticky, and their breathing was extremely uncomfortable, making people feel a sense of chest tightness.
The sailors on the deck were busy. Chen Daolin saw the two sailors passing by, trotting all the way, and looked very nervous.
Seeing Captain Hook at the helm from a distance, Chen Daolin strode over. Before he could get to the front, Chen Daolin had already seen Hook's face seemingly bad.
"Is something going on?"
"Yeah!" A trace of gloom flashed in Hook's eyes. He took a deep breath and looked at Chen Daolin: "Mr. Darling, we may be in trouble!"
His expression was very serious. As he said that, the captain reached out and pointed his hand at the east sky: "Look!"
