The Ernest Sea Lion returned to Nassau one month later. In addition to the shortage of personnel and the shortage of supplies, the mast was damaged in the subsequent battle and the ship's speed was greatly reduced, so it had to be returned to Hong Kong for repair.
Orff didn't intend to let everyone off the boat, but when the order came out, the entire boat exploded. He wanted the men who had been on the sea for three months to stay on the boat when they saw the land. This kind of thing is like holding a cage of teddies together and expecting them to be indifferent.
In the end, Orff had to make concessions and revoke the injunction, only to tell everyone to keep the treasure secret.
But the results were also very gratifying. Just one hour after the first pirates came ashore, the news that the Sea Lion was preparing to find Kidd's treasure spread throughout the island.
Every corner of the street is now discussing this matter.
However, this is not entirely a bad thing. At least the sea lion recruiting process has become particularly smooth. Generally speaking, if a pirate group has damaged more than four adults in a short period of time, then when recruiting, it is ready to join. People have to weigh their own life is not hard enough.
However, this time it was clearly an exception. The scene where the Sea Lion was recruiting was unprecedentedly hot. Some small pirate groups even wanted to make a group call. The applicants had leaked the water around the beach. Owen had to transfer ten more people from the boat. To maintain order.
Annie ran out of the room angrily when she heard the news, and complained that Zhang Heng and Malvin didn't tell her that she was not good enough, and went out with great enthusiasm. In the evening, it was no surprise that she pulled her head back. .
Because of her old reasons, she didn't even pass the registration level, let alone the later assessment, and there was a conflict with others when she lined up. The girl was fierce, and there were obviously four people on the opposite side, and she did not retreat. He just fought with those guys with his fists. In the end, the two of them were lying on the ground, and two of them were probably scared. They helped the injured companion to retreat.
Zhang Heng opened the door and saw Annie standing with swollen cheeks and purplish blue on the outside, and could not help but be speechless, but he could feel that the mood of the red-haired girl tonight was obviously different from that in the past and did not say anything. Seriously, just said, "Rice is ready, let's eat together."
The latter lowered his head, sitting at the dinner table listlessly, and no longer had a good appetite. He picked up a potato from the plate and held it in his hand, but he didn't lose his mouth for a long time.
Then she suddenly said without a word, "Will I marry you?"
Malvin, who was drinking soup, almost said that he didn't scoop the spoon into his esophagus.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not overwhelmed by reality and I don't want to be a little woman at home, but I just feel that it's a bit sad to eat and drink for so long." The red-haired girl clutched her hair, depressed, "I I used to think I would soon make money, but now it seems that I am a little too optimistic. "
Speaking of which, she couldn't help but blushing. Before she and Zhang Heng agreed to give the latter half of the booty for the first time, but she only grabbed the pot and returned for the first time. Technically, it is not good to split in half. In fact, after she and Jinyanzi fell out, she went into employment, gloriously became a white worm.
In the daytime, I went out and dangled around, looking for a fight, and when I arrived, I obediently returned to eat.
And she would do nothing except fight, including housework and cooking. Each time Zhang Heng and Malvin had to prepare food and emergency change before going to sea, she could n’t help but suspect that her family was hit by a hurricane. Zhang Heng has already pulled out someone's underwear under his bed more than once.
The red-haired girl now dreams of getting rich overnight, so she was so excited to hear the news of Kidd's Treasure. She felt that the opportunity for her salted fish to turn around was coming, but she did not expect to be supplemented by the dog's life.
Although Zhang Heng has always advocated letting the girl go home and be her great lady, on the other hand, she has to admit that after spending so long, the latter really puts all the skills in this life on the battle. Objectively speaking, the profession of pirates is really suitable for her. It is not realistic to let her stay in one place honestly with her personality.
But the problem is that I have searched the whole Nassau, and no reliable pirate group will accept women.
Zhang Hengwen asked the red-haired **** the opposite side, "What about you after you marry me?"
The latter could not help but be discouraged again, muttered, "... I don't know, but at least not for nothing."
Zhang Heng put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said, "So, if you can control yourself and not cause trouble, then I will let you on my boat."
你 "Your boat?" Annie stunned. "Where did you come from, wait, don't you plan to stay on the Sea Lion?"
"Well ~ www.novelhall.com ~ It's the first time Zhang Heng has revealed in front of others that he intends to form a pirate regiment. The son of the farmer on the other side can't help but open his mouth, but he immediately thought of something, and said suddenly," Are you going to do it alone after you have collected Kidd's treasure? With this money, we can pull up a team, but at that time we were rich, so what are we doing as pirates? "
However, Zhang Heng's words made Malvin stay there completely.
"I don't plan to leave until I find the treasure. I asked Irving before. Newcomers like us who have taken over from the captives can choose to stay as long as they have been on the boat for a year, so once the deadline is reached, I will apply. Disembark. "
"Then if we haven't got Kidd's treasure by then? Do you know that there are still two copies of the treasure map left outside." Malvin said, "Did you not see the scene on the beach this afternoon, Now the pirates of Nassau are thinking about how to squeeze their heads and join the Sea Lion to take a bite of cake, and you tell me that you intend to give up the boat at this point? "
Annie also nodded at this time, "Although I really want to go to the sea, I am not in a hurry, anyway, I have survived for such a long time, and it doesn't matter if I wait a few months."
Zhang Heng Moran, his intention to disembark has nothing to do with Kidd's treasure, but only because of his keen sense of danger. During this time, he could notice that there were some subtle changes in Orff's attitude towards him. There was not much intersection. Prior to this, Orff hadn't paid much attention to him, but I don't know why Zhang Heng always had a feeling of being stared on the boat, including the previous few battles. There always seemed to be eyes silently watching him behind his back.
There are not many people who can do this kind of thing, and Orff is one of them.
