Under Jack's leadership, the Planting Flower sailed day and night, aiming at Bailang Bend.
Whitecaps Bend does not exist on the map. It is more like a fairy tale, passed down by sailors orally, and is said to be the home of mermaids.
Wang Xu knew that this was not a story, but a fact. Jack had found Bailang Bend, and despite the obstacles of the mermaid, he had found the spring water that made people immortal.
Thirteen days later
"Guys, if I read the map correctly, this is Whitecaps Bend." Standing on the rudder deck, Jack held the navigation chart in his hand and pointed to the sea area ahead.
Wang Xu raised his telescope and saw a vast expanse of white, with nothing but waves.
Putting down the telescope, Wang Xu glanced at Jack and asked expressionlessly: "Are you sure?"
"It's okay if you can't see it. Bailangwan is just a nickname, which refers to the habitat of mermaids. Any area of 800 miles can be called Bailangwan. As for the island where the Fountain of Youth is hidden, I remember it is in the north. Yes, this is this
In the direction, there is a small island that can only be seen if you get close. Moreover, if you want to get the Fountain of Youth, you need two special props, the mermaid's tears and the golden cup dedicated to the spring water."
Hearing Jack's answer, Wang Xu nodded slightly.
The Fountain of Youth in the Pirates of the Caribbean world is a kind of water of life that needs a medium.
The two golden cups are filled with spring water respectively, and one cup is filled with the mermaid's tears. There is no need to do this for one cup of spring water, which can be drunk by two people respectively.
People who drink ordinary spring water are equivalent to mediums and will be taken to the underworld, while people who drink spring water containing mermaid tears will gain eternal life.
This kind of immortality is the blessing of Poseidon, the god of the sea. In myths and legends, the last person to drink from the spring was Calypso, the goddess of the sea.
After gaining immortality, she sincerely believed in Poseidon, and eventually became Poseidon's attendant and the goddess of the sea in the Pirates of the Caribbean world.
"Eternal life, what a desirable word!" Wang Xu stood on the deck with fascination in his eyes.
Why are people afraid of death? Because no one likes death.
Why do people desire to be powerful? It is because in our bones, we have genes that desire to be powerful.
There is no need for a reason to become stronger, it is the most primitive instinct, and the same is true for immortality.
A man as powerful as the First Emperor would not do his best to live forever. As a layman, how could Wang Xu be exempted from the worldliness?
The eight-hundred-mile sea area is not very big. After having a clear target, the only thing left is to search carefully.
Soon, the Flower Plant began to turn around, riding the wind and waves, heading towards the location pointed out by Jack.
Time passed minute by minute, from noon to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening.
The hidden pirates were never discovered, and not even the mermaid was seen. Everything was so peaceful.
At night, the sea breeze blows gently on my face, bringing with it the smell of the sea.
Wang Xu, Jack, Will, and Zacro were sitting in the captain's cabin, enjoying the food carefully prepared by the chef and talking about the next move.
"Today we searched eighty nautical miles, and it will only take ten days at most to find that island, unless it is not here at all." Zacro was the first to speak, and after speaking, he looked at Jack.
Jack was enjoying his chicken legs. After hearing the sound, he raised his head slightly and asked, "Watch what I do. I'm on the same side as you. Is there any benefit in lying to you?"
"In front of the Fountain of Youth, we have to work together. What's the point of internal strife?" Will also spoke, signaling everyone to calm down.
Wang Xu didn't speak the whole time, just quietly sipping the wine and tapping his fingers on the table.
Seeing that Wang Xu did not express his position, the three of them fell silent and glared at each other unwilling to be outdone.
After a while, Wang Xu's ears twitched slightly and he raised his hand to make a silent gesture.
"What's wrong?" After a short silence, Jack was the first to ask.
Wang Xu still didn't speak, he closed his eyes gently and made a gesture of listening.
The other three people present followed him and listened quietly, hearing nothing but the sound of the waves.
Jack put down the drumstick, sneakily came up to him, and whispered: "What did you hear?"
"The singing, such a moving singing, makes people want to relax involuntarily!" Wang Xu whispered, with a look of intoxication on his face.
Jack and the others looked at each other, and soon heard faint singing, coming from all directions.
What kind of song is this? It's obviously just an intermittent "la la" sound, but it has a magical power that makes people peaceful.
Everyone fell silent in the singing, as if they had returned to their mother's arms, lazily not wanting to wake up.
"This is the song of the mermaid. If you can't listen to it, you will die." Jack struggled to stand up, but as if he was drunk, he swayed twice and sat back down. He said with a silly smile: "Such a beautiful song, it would be a pity not to listen to it.
I have to listen even if I die!"
"Yes, I will listen even if I die."
Wang Xu was still intoxicated in the first half of his sentence, but he came to his senses in the second half and his eyes focused: "What a powerful magic sound!"
Picking up the long knife, Wang Xu strode outside and kicked open the door.
Behind him, Jack, who was in a state of intoxication, opened his eyes slightly after Wang Xu left and muttered: "No, I sealed my ears with candle oil so that they are not affected by the mermaid music. What did he use?"
?It’s over. The escape plan needs to be carefully considered. Do we really need to take him to find the Fountain of Youth?”
Plop, plop, plop
When Wang Xu walked out of the captain's cabin, the sailors on the deck were jumping into the sea like dumplings, looking drunk.
Looking at the sea, there are countless beauties floating in the water, wearing seashell bras, singing in unison to the flower-planting horn.
Whenever a sailor jumps off the deck, a mermaid follows him.
Wang Xu was shocked to find that after these mermaids caught the sailors, they did not kill them immediately, but tore their clothes and started having sex.
"La la la la la" the mermaid's singing changed from calm to excited, as if she was performing some kind of ceremony.
Wang Xu only listened to a few words before he reacted, and the evil fire he wanted to vent arose in his heart.
"How brave, take my sword!" Wang Xu jumped onto the mast, brandished his long sword, and slashed hard.
In an instant, the pale golden knife turned into a crescent moon and flew out, striking heavily on the sea where the mermaids gathered.
boom!
There was a roar, and the sea surface seemed to be detonated, causing waves to be ten meters high.
At the same time, the mermaid's singing was also interrupted, and thousands of mermaids looked over.
The beautiful face cannot hide the mermaid's cold eyes and sharp teeth.
The mermaids in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean are not the kind-hearted mermaids in fairy tales, but more like myths and legends.
In myths and legends, mermaids are extremely evil creatures. They have no emotions and will enchant sailors with their songs and then have sex with them in the sea.
If you think this is a blessing, you are totally wrong. After having sex, the mermaid will eat the bewitched voyager, just like a female praying mantis to ensure nutrients for her fetus.
"Hiss!" The singing was interrupted, and the mermaids seemed to be angry, and they all roared like snakes.
The sailors who fell into the sea woke up one after another without the confusion of singing, and what they saw was the ferocious-looking mermaid with its sharp teeth.
"What is this?" A sailor who woke up looked blankly at the mermaid in front of him.
The next second, the mermaid pounced on the sailor and dragged him into the deep sea.
Gulu, Gulu
A lot of gas filled the air and rolled upwards. After a while, the bubbles disappeared, followed by bright red sea water, spreading out at the position where the sailor disappeared.
"Run, it's a mermaid, an evil mermaid!"
"Don't eat me, don't eat me, ah"
The sailors ran away desperately, but how could they escape the mermaid with a fish tail?
Wang Xu stood on the mast and looked around. Blood was constantly rolling up from the sea. He knew what was happening below without even thinking about it.
"A reed crosses the river!"
The sword cut off a section of the mast, and with a slap of the blade, the mast rushed towards the sea.
Wang Xu flew up and landed firmly on the mast. His whole body was like an arrow leaving the string, and he shouted: "Death!"
