Doomsday Totem

Chapter 65
On the way back, the captain Xia Yihan opened the purse and counted it. There were 62 gold in it, plus the original 107 gold, now there were 169 gold, and there was only 71 gold left to pick up the ship.The captain has already made up his mind, just get another 50 gold back, and the remaining 21 gold will be lost...

Although Ling Tianqi is a bit difficult to deal with, the Ling family has three sisters.A big brother, no matter what, it is impossible to resist the attacks of the three younger sisters in turn!What's more, it's only 21 gold, no matter how stupid Ling Tianqi is, it is impossible to make things difficult for the three younger sisters for 21 gold.Just when the captain was full of confidence, the accountant Wu Congyun said something that made his jaw drop.

"Your hairpins with dark blue pearls and sawtooth tiger shark bones can buy several ships." The accountant said resentfully.

"What! Why didn't you say it earlier!" The captain was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground, he grabbed the accountant's arm and shook it desperately, spraying the accountant's head and face with saliva.

"I just saw it, and you gave it away. I don't even know when you got it." The accountant said with a depressed face.

"That's right, where did this thing come from..." The captain stopped, frowned, racked his brains for a long time, and finally remembered, "Xiao Xingyue's!"

The accountant shook his head. As soon as he heard the name, he knew which female victim it was again.

"Who is Xiao Xingyue?" The accountant couldn't help asking curiously.

"A certain boss' daughter, I remember that HH Company seems to belong to their family, the largest manufacturer of mechanical parts in the Northern Wilderness Continent, and that, the one that is everywhere..."

"Gas station," the accountant reminded.

"Yes, it's a gas station."

"You... how do you guys know each other?" The accountant couldn't figure out what was so good about this pirate leader. Why did he have so many messy adventures? Why did he fall in love with him when he was obviously a good girl.

"We don't know each other. It happened many years ago." The captain explained, "At that time, she was still very young, about a few years old, and I was working as a guard at HH Company."

"and then."

"I exchanged it with lollipops." After a while, the captain added, "It's only a copper coin." After speaking, he laughed, as bad as he could be.

A few minutes later, the two returned to their previous positions, squatting beside the boulder and staring at the small door of Yinma Red Building.

"Will it hurt her to come back directly?" the accountant asked worriedly.However, he wasn't worried about the girl's feelings, but he was afraid that the captain would regret it in the future and blame him for everything.After all, this hooligan leader still values ​​women very much.

"No." The captain replied confidently, and stretched out his hand to him, "Give me your gun."

"Why..." The accountant looked at the captain in horror.

"Troubleshooting, bring it quickly!" The captain shouted in a deep voice.The accountant had no choice but to take out his gun and pass it over.This is a small silver pistol, the body of the gun is inlaid with dark gold patterns, and the handle is made of northern mahogany, which has been rubbed until it shines.

"She's always wanted a gun, and she'll trade it for this in a while," the captain explained.

The accountant was immediately dumbfounded, but he didn't know how long it was before he got out of the hands of this old rascal.It was gone in a blink of an eye now, his heart was full of remorse, and his soul was silently shouting: What happened!If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't say it!
In the following time, the accountant has been in the mood of worrying about gains and losses...

In the evening, the sun gradually sank to the west, without the warm sunshine, the north wind became colder and colder.

"Why hasn't anyone come out yet." The captain wrapped his coat and complained in a low voice.However, his complaints were of no avail.A few hours later, still no one came out.At this time, the moon had already climbed into the sky, dim lights were shining from the wooden windows of the red building, reflecting the white snow on the ground, and everything was silent.

"Boss, it's too late, let's go back." The accountant suggested that he was already shivering from the cold and felt like he was about to faint.

"No! The money for a few ships." The captain said to himself, "I want to buy a nuclear-powered ship, so I don't need to refuel in the future."

With this in mind, the captain took the accountant and waited until the next morning.

It was just dawn, and the two squatting next to the stone almost froze into ice cubes.The captain and the accountant were covered in snow, their faces were blue from the cold, and it was difficult for them to speak.

"Boss...boss, go... let's go, if you don't go, you will... die." After speaking, the accountant imitated the little match girl in the fairy tale and lit a match.In the dim light of the fire, he seemed to see the hot chicken soup and the fragrant ale...

"Damn... a wicked rich man... go to bed early and wake up late... Sima Ren, I'll never end with you!" the captain cursed angrily, and stood up tremblingly while leaning on the stone.As soon as he moved his body, the leather boots under his feet crackled, and they were full of shattered ice slag.

At this time, the young lady of the Sima family was lying on a large oak bed carved with flowers and fruits, covered with a thick velvet quilt.As if sensing some resentment, she woke up leisurely, stretched her waist, let out a comfortable "um...", then pulled the quilt, retracted and continued to sleep...

At the same time, the two downstairs supported each other, staggered on the knee-high snow, and left in a state of embarrassment...

Half an hour later, the two knocked open the door of the giant wooden wine barrel, fell to the ground and shouted intermittently, "Chicken soup...chicken soup..." "Wine... come to drink..." The bar owner quickly heated up two bowls of ale, and then Added some ginger and poured it down for the two of them, and it got better.

"Carrot, are you willing to guard this tavern for the rest of your life?" The recovered captain sat on the log table with great horses and swords, and began to do the ideological work of the bar owner.

"Have you ever had a dream?" The captain said sincerely, "Why don't you just sell this poor place and come on board my ship and hang out with me?"

The bar owner shook his head and reminded, "The food and accommodation expenses for these few days..."

But the captain clenched his fists as if he didn’t hear it, and continued, “Across the seven seas, watching the sunrise and sunset with a smile. This is every man’s dream, radish, set sail with me, let’s go!”

The boss drooped his eyes and seemed completely unmoved by the impassioned speech. He said, "I can only cook. What do you want me to do?"

"Lack of a cook on board." "Does it make a difference where you're a cook?"

"I remember you said that when you were young, you went hunting for bears on the Snowy Ice Field," the captain said.

"Five people went, two of them died, and not a single snow bear was caught. Is this called bear hunting?" the bar owner asked back.

"Yeah." The captain nodded and said, "Indeed, being hunted by a bear is pretty much the same."

"Besides, this shop is only sold for thirty or forty gold. I beg you, Captain Xia, to hold your hand high, and don't make things difficult for us little people." The bar owner cupped his fists and said.

The captain waved his hand, as if chasing away flies, and said contemptuously, "You only have this ambition, guarding this broken bar, can you lay eggs?"

"If you are short of money, why don't you consider..." the boss said while looking suggestively at the corner of the bar.

The captain followed the boss' gaze, and saw a boy in black sitting in a corner, eating breakfast silently.

This boy is the iron slag who worked as a porter all day yesterday and is still suffering from backache and leg pain today.Although he was stronger than the average person, he still couldn't handle the work of one person doing the work of three people, and he was exhausted when he came back last night.

"Brother Tie, brother, I'm in trouble, I don't have a boat." The captain leaned over and said.

"There is no boat! Then how do I cross the sea?" Tie Slag raised his head, staring at the captain with sharp eyes.

"I can't help it, the boat was robbed." The captain sighed.

"Take it back." Tie Slag said.

"How to grab it? I can't beat it..."

"Actually..." Tie Zha paused and suggested, "You can hire me."

The captain suddenly slapped his thigh, thinking, yes, how could he think of that!They are now in a boat, and mutual assistance is a matter of course.With Iron Slag's ability to crush the wine glass empty-handed, it would definitely not be a problem to snatch back the Fish Dragon.

"Good idea!" The captain loudly agreed, thought for a while, and then asked cautiously, "The other party has the strength of the middle-level gold, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Huh?" Tie Slag was taken aback immediately, the mid-level gold was not something he, the high-level silver, could deal with.Not to mention the difference of two levels, even if he was slightly lower than him, he would not take the risk, so he asked, "Is there any other plan?"

"I collected some money to buy a ship, and I still need 50 gold. If you can advance..."

Before the captain finished speaking, Iron Slag threw the money bag on the table.The captain grabbed the purse with bright eyes, opened it, and froze immediately.There are no gold coins in it, except for a few silver coins, the rest are copper plates.

"Brother, are you kidding?" The captain's face darkened.

"That's all."

"If you don't have money, why take a boat!" The captain shouted in a deep voice.

"Now you know my secret. If there is no boat, I can only kill you and find the next one." Tie Slag threatened lightly.

The captain just wanted to have an attack, but instinctively felt the inexplicable danger.He calmed down very quickly. Since the other party is confident, he must have this strength.

Indeed, he guessed right, Iron Slag asked Alice to scan them the night before, and knew that they only had brass fighting power, not even black iron.Killing them is as easy as cutting vegetables, which is why they are so powerful.

"It's a bit inappropriate for you to say that." The captain said earnestly, "There is a saying in the ancient East, 'A strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake'. Although you are strong, we have lived in this sea area for many years. In contrast, we are more familiar with the environment of the Black Sea."

The captain's words were very true, but when it came to Iron Slag, it didn't work at all.Iron Slag spread his hands and issued an ultimatum, "Take the boat ticket for your own life, choose."

"That's...well, I admit it." The captain said with a wry smile, "But we don't have a boat now, so you have to work hard and find a way to get some money back."
