The World of Pirates

Chapter 17 Set sail
Just kidding, can you stay on Redwood Island for the rest of your life without going to sea?

[Although my current body is still underage, with my current physical data, I probably don't need to think about whether underage can drink alcohol or not. 】

Li Cha was unwilling to drink alcohol before because he knew that alcohol would paralyze the nerves and cause damage to the brain, and this damage was irreversible.

As a person who uses swords and will live by swords in the foreseeable future, Li Cha doesn't want alcohol to affect his state.Although Li Cha usually has no self-awareness as a swordsman.

[Now it seems that I have no choice. Sometimes, the only choice is usually the best choice. 】

After some mental activities in Li Cha's mind, he finally succeeded in persuading himself.

After buying three large wooden barrels, Li Cha borrowed a cart and pushed the barrels to the tavern.If you want to buy wine, of course you have to go to the tavern.

It was still noon, and there was no one in the tavern, only Jon was wiping his glasses behind the bar.

It's a bit emotional to say it, Jon seems to always have endless glasses to wipe.

Li Cha still remembers that on the first day he came to this world, he wandered around the town, and then observed outside the tavern for a long time.

Finally, when the tavern was about to close, Li Cha opened the door and walked into the tavern. At that time, Jon was wiping glasses behind the bar, just like now.

Li Cha has always been grateful to Jon, who gave him a place to stay back then.However, Li Cha never said it out loud.

"A glass of milk, just help me fill these three barrels with rum." Li Cha said.

I'm going to drink to live my life soon, and I can still drink milk while I can, of course, I can drink it once.

"Li Cha, are you going to sea?" Jon poured out a glass of milk and handed it to Li Cha while speaking.

"That's right, I've been preparing for a long time, and now it's finally time to go." Li Cha took the milk and said.

Jon was silent for a while, and even stopped wiping the glass, just watching Li Cha sipping milk.

Li Cha frowned, looked up at Jon, and said, "Uncle, what do you want to say?"

"I... have known for a long time that this island cannot keep you. But, if you don't want to sail in the future, maybe... Maybe you can go back to the tavern to have a look."

Jon said at a loss, this was quite different from his usual shrewd image.

Jon did know that Li Cha would leave sooner or later, because he had seen Li Cha practicing sword.

How can a person who is so cruel to himself in pursuit of power be willing to stay on this small island for the rest of his life?

Looking at the tavern owner in front of him who has never asked about his background, and never shown any kindness, Li Cha smiled softly and said:
"Yes, after I have seen the world, I will return to Redwood Island. With a mountain of Baileys, I will buy Uncle's tavern."

"Then, I'll hire the uncle to clean the glasses behind the bar."

After hearing what Li Cha said, Jon also smiled with relief, and said:
"Okay, then I'll wait for the Baileys you said piled up as high as a hill."

······
Finally, Li Cha left the tavern with three barrels of rum.

Of course, it was all paid for, and Jon's stinginess was known to everyone on Redwood Island.

After moving the wine to the boat and buying some easy-to-preserve fruits and other sundries in the small town, Li Cha drove Xiaobai away from Hongmu Island without waiting until the next day. pier.

set sail!

set sail!

Richard has no definite destination for the time being. He plans to follow the commercial road to Shields Town, where the 153rd branch of the Navy is also stationed.

If you want to kill pirates and hone your sword skills, you must first know the information about pirates.

Although there are many pirates in the sea, the sea is bigger, like sesame seeds thrown into a pool. If you want to meet pirates in the vast sea, you can only bump around like headless chickens.

Moreover, Li Cha chose to drive along the commercial road, so the probability of encountering pirates would also increase greatly.

Fasten the sail, let it fix at an angle, and then Li Cha took out the sea chart he got from the Bloodaxe Pirates and examined it carefully.

The Bloodaxe Pirates planned to rob the merchant ships docked on Redwood Island, so they naturally knew about this business route.The islands along the commercial route are marked on the sea chart, but now it happens to be cheaper for Li Cha.

As night gradually fell, Li Cha put away the chart, walked to the bow, drew out the sword, and started today's daily practice.

Today's [-] prime vibrations have not been completed yet.

------

About 900 meters below the sea, a figure with a knife was swimming slowly, as if looking for something.

Suddenly, the figure's right leg was blurred, and when it stepped on the water, the figure jumped out in an instant. The speed was faster than the fish swimming in the sea.

The right hand holding the knife waved lightly, and a half-meter-long sea fish was chopped off its head as if it had hit the blade itself.

Then the figure grabbed the body of the fish with his left hand and hung it around his waist through a rope. There were already several "headless fish" on the rope.

[Sure enough, after changing the place, the fish here are much more stupid than those near Hongmu Island. 】

Someone seems to have forgotten that the sea fish near Hongmu Island were also very "pure".

This figure is naturally Li Cha, and now he has left Hongmu Island for a week.

As expected, Li Cha lost his bearings.

A person who has never sailed on the sea, driving a small sailboat, just wants to cross the sea?

Hehe, up to now, I can only say that Li Cha's audacity is overwhelming.

Fortunately, Li Cha can rely on fishing on the bottom of the sea to maintain food consumption. As for drinking water, there are two and a half barrels of rum on board, and Li Cha has been drinking very sparingly.

Feeling that the oxygen in his lungs was about to run out, Li Cha kicked his feet continuously and floated to the surface of the sea in only half a minute.

Decompression sickness?nonexistent.

After taking a breath, Li Cha observed Xiaobai's position, and after swimming over to put the fish on the deck, Li Cha dived down again.

After repeating this several times, Li Cha looked at the hills of fish on the deck, and felt that it was almost enough, so he climbed onto the deck.

While lighting a fire to grill fish, Li Cha began to think.

[The water surface is tense, maybe I can try to practice running directly on the sea surface, so that when I float up from the sea, it will definitely save a lot of time to rush back to the boat.And it will also be very helpful for future battles at sea. 】

I have an idea, but I have to eat the fish first.

······
After a full meal, Li Cha took a short rest and picked up the chart to study by the way.

However, the direction is lost now, even if there is a compass, but with Li Cha's half-baked navigation skills, no matter how he studies it, even if he can read the charts, he can't think of any way.

Now it can only sail due east. As for whether it can encounter islands or passing ships, it all depends on God's will.

"It's okay, this is the most orthodox sea adventure!" Li Cha tried to comfort himself.

False sea adventure: plan the sailing route in advance, prepare personnel and supplies, observe the course, direction, and weather at all times during the voyage, record the log every day, and be cautious for fear of accidentally deviating from the route.

A real sea adventure: just a small sailboat, the waves are just out of the pier!

Don't ask, asking is Mr. Richard's great adventure.
