48 Hours a Day

Chapter 114: Black Sail (19)

“Big wave! The waves are coming!!!” The pirate on the port side shouted, but immediately after that his voice was swallowed by the wind, a six-metre high wave head patted on the deck, directly upside down the group of pirates above, Zhang Heng grabbed the cable at the first time before his body was taken away.

And Marvin in the cabin was uncomfortable, he was peeling a potato, almost chopping off his fingers, the whole hull was shaking violently, and the bacon he hung over his head was dancing with a bunch of demons, especially the sound of giant waves on the hull, which sounded as horrible as the end of the world, making one wonder whether these assembled wooden boards could withstand the power of nature.

The farmer's son couldn't help but shrink his neck and squatted in the corner to pray.

This is the ocean, the warm side and the brutal side, it's like a young girl with an uncertain joy, smiling at you the second before, but the next second has changed color, causing a terrible wave.

Compared to other panicked pirates on the boat, Roscoe's divine colour seems unusually calm. The old man spent most of his life at sea, experiencing more winds and waves, and this scene does not yet frighten him.

He even took the opportunity to teach Zhang Heng, “Well, feel it. Speed like this is almost the limit of the Sea Lion. If the wind gets stronger, the sailsuit won't hold up. You have to untie the truss and put up the mast in time, or the mast will break. ”

Roscoe's attitude towards Zhang Heng is now different from that of a month ago, when the latter did not threaten each other with the whereabouts of the daughter of an old pirate, as Fraser suggested, which is certainly the safest way to keep Roscoe on board, but there is no absolute standard for teaching this kind of thing, and the difference between dedication and unwillingness is huge.

Roscoe is the best sailing technique in the whole of Nassau, not to say that without Roscoe Zhang Heng, there is nowhere to go to learn to sail, and a contradictory Roscoe is not necessarily any better than others.

So Zhang Heng was willing to bet on this. That night, he gave the address of the old pirate daughter's current residence to each other. As a result, Roscoe left the Buddhist Home overnight. Zhang Heng thought he was busy living for nothing this time. However, the next morning, when the old man gathered on the Sea Lion, he appeared magically on his face and Zhang Hengdao. "I told the captain that I would send you to my men, and I would stay in Nassau for another three months. This is the longest period. Don't blame me me me for not saying that you can learn where you are in the next three months. ”

Zhang Heng once thought that the old man had discovered his conscience, but then one night Roscoe drank too much to tell the truth. He couldn't save any money in his pocket because he had always followed a lifestyle attitude of timely enjoyment. He had to pay a lot of money to get back from here to England, and after all these years and his daughter didn't see him, he was embarrassed to go back empty-handed, so he could only turn back and honestly do two more tickets before leaving.

But anyway, Zhang Heng ended up with another teacher, and Roscoe's attitude towards him continued to improve as the two got along.

The old man, neither captain nor pirate, has seen such a disciplined man. Zhang Heng gets up two hours in advance every day, does basic training like chopping, and in about an hour, Owen will also come to the deck, and the two people will start rehearsing, and then when all the pirates get up for dinner, Zhang Heng will come back here to learn how to observe the weather, manipulate the wind sails, in addition to working with Marvin through food, money and other means, and several other old sailors have become familiar with it, and learned from them how to steer, shell and read the nautical charts.

“I hear your only daughter is alive. Congratulations.” Rudder Olf appeared behind Roscoe sometime and watched Zhang Heng sail over the mast with interest, "What do you think, he would be a threat to us? ”

“I don't think so.” Sail Cable Lane, “shouldn't you be more concerned about Goodwin than he is? I heard he has more than half the support and will challenge you shortly. ”

Olf looked down, “It's just a jumping clown, don't change the subject, you know, your proud mentor and Fraser were close, and I heard he had helped Fraser collect debts before. ”

“So?”

“You don't really think Fraser would just get off the boat honestly and enjoy his retirement, if I recall correctly you were the one who proposed to kill him. ”

Roscoe hummed, "I remember you were the one who tried to keep him alive. ”

“You know, I had no other choice, and you have to admit that Fraser had a lot of influence in the crew at that time, and although we forged that pardon, there were still a lot of skeptics in the crew, and if we killed him at that time, we would be in danger.” Olf sits next to Roscoe.

The latter shook his head, “It doesn't matter, it's all in the past anyway, and I'm ready to retire. ”

Olf knew the old man didn't want to go on talking about it, "We'll miss you, and maybe many years from now I'll tell my kids that I've sailed side by side with the best sailing cable in the Caribbean. ”

“Then I will also tell my granddaughter that the most boring rudder in the entire Caribbean has been talking in my ears as I go out.” Roscoe had a face.

Olf smiled, “Say hello to Corolle for me.” After patting the old man on the shoulder, he got up and left the deck.

…………

Three months soon passed, because the last loot took a long time, waiting for the Sea Lion to return to Nassau, technically almost four months after Roscoe began teaching Zhang Hengkong fan technology, the old man also had enough money to travel and buy gifts, he had long felt like an arrow, did not want to delay, and quit with the captain before disembarking.

Zhang Heng took a look at his panel. Instead of giving the control sail a separate list of skills to represent, it was added to a skill called sailing along with other similar steering wheels, weather observations, etc.

His skills have now risen to lv1, in addition to the knife surgery came to lv1 a month ago. This level can be considered excellent among the pirates. Although he can't beat Owen, it can happen again and again with a little water from the other side.

Zhang Heng is still quite satisfied with the harvest during this period, but some people are less happy.

Another guest, Annie, is in a terrible mood.
