The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes
Vol 4 Chapter 800: pearl digger
The latest website: Pearl Village, a village on the east bank of the Pearl Sea with a name that looks noble, but is actually poor.
Joyce got up when the sun was about to rise, and she looked up at the sky after stepping out of her hut.
Last night, there was thunder at sea for a long time. According to experience, it was raining heavily.
If the weather at sea is bad, she will be in danger when she waits to go down to the sea to pick pearls.
Her parents were driven into the sea to pick pearls by the lord because of the windy weather, and they never came back.
There are no clouds in the sky, it seems to be a good weather.
Joyce pulled two carrots from the vegetable field near the house and pinned them to his belt to prepare breakfast later, and then picked up the bucket and went to the well to fetch water.
There was a shelf next to the well. In the faint light of the sky, Joyce saw that his neighbor, Coughlin, hung naked on it, and had passed out. A rag was thrown not far away. It was Coughlin. clothes.
Coughlin's parents, like Joyce's parents, went to sea that day and never came back.
It's just that Coughlin's health is not good, and it doesn't take long to dive to the bottom of the sea each time. The pearls she picks every day are less than everyone else's, and she can't even pay the monthly pearl tax.
That's why Coughlin couldn't afford the money to fetch water from the lord's well. She was discovered by the lord's dog legs when she was secretly fetching water in the middle of the night...
Joyce frowned. She stood aside and hesitated for a while, then walked to the dog's leg beside the well and said, "I'll pay for her, can I put her down?"
All her cash was just a few copper plates, except for two buried under the fire at home, the others were all carried with her.
The dog-legged face turned very bad, and he had other plans for Coughlin.
Their black elves can't stand the sun because of their skin color. At noon, Coughlin, who can't stand the sun, will definitely beg for mercy. Then he can drag the famous little beauty in the village home and do whatever he wants. .
But the Lord Lord is a desperate man for money, and in the eyes of the giants with big feet, black elves are synonymous with stunted growth - even if female black elves are basically "mountain elves" - they don't like it at all.
If the master knows that he is not charging for his lower body, it would be considered light to castrate himself within five knives.
So the dogleg took the two copper plates from Joyce's hand, and the two carrots from her waist, and then put Coughlin down.
In the process of letting go of the black elf girl, the dog leg was too addicted to his hands.
Joyce finished the water quickly. She carried Coughlin on her back, and held a bucket in one hand. After picking up Coughlin's clothes, she took three and two steps back to the house.
After putting Coughlin on top of the haystack where her parents had slept, Joyce started cooking today's breakfast.
She raised the fire, poured the water back into the pot, put the pot on the fire, then scooped a large spoonful of off-white powder from the jar on the side, put it in the bowl, and turned it into a white slurry with a little water .
After the water in the pot boiled, she poured the white slurry in the bowl into the pot, and after a few stirrings, a pot of viscous paste was ready.
Joyce cooked a little more gooey today, because the carrots he used for breakfast were gone, and going to the sea was extremely exhausting.
After she ate most of the pot, she left a small bowl for Coughlin, who was still unconscious.
She doesn't have much food left. If the weather is not suitable for going to sea, she will dig up the roots of a kind of wild vine from the nearby mountains, and the boiled powder is obtained from the roots.
If she's lucky, she might be able to bring back a slap-sized fish or two tonight.
If the fish is too big, then the lord needs to pay the tax.
When the sun just rose, Joyce hung the bamboo basket around his waist, put a sharp beading knife in, and picked up a linen wetsuit to avoid being stung by jellyfish and scratched by rocks. Then he walked out of the hut and walked towards the sea.
There was still a long way to go from the village to the beach. There seemed to be more seagulls in the sky today than usual. Joyce had to be careful not to be bombarded by bird droppings while taking care of the rocks on the ground.
Along the way, Joyce was thinking about a question at the same time, that is, whether to follow the pearl boat to the farther sea.
Although you have to give the pearl boat a sum of money to get on the boat, there are more chances to pick pearls outside. Generally speaking, it is still more profitable than playing a small game near the shore by yourself.
She thought about going back and discussing with Coughlin tonight, and the two of them could make a small boat together, so that they could go farther out to sea and feel more at ease with Coughlin on the boat to help her in the sea.
Not far from the sea, Joyce heard a commotion over there, as if something extraordinary had happened.
Joyce hurried over, but she was stunned by the scene by the sea.
There are countless pieces of wood floating on the sea, and the corpses of bigfoot giants, trolls, lizardmen, four-winged dragons, etc. are floating up and down with the waves among the wood.
The black elves who were preparing to go to the sea to pick pearls were all stunned. Some black elves recognized that the clothes on the deceased were the uniforms of the Allied Navy.
This discovery shocked the black elves, including Joyce. A few years ago, the fleet of the Allied Navy stayed on the sea not far away for two days. They had seen this unprecedentedly huge ship from a distance. fleet.
It's just that now it looks like this fleet has suffered a disaster, and the ships have sunk a lot, and may even be wiped out.
The pearl-picking black elves soon gathered together, and everyone was worried.
With so many dead bodies in the sea, sharks are sure to be attracted. Going to sea is like going to feed the sharks until the bodies are cleaned up. Even if the body is cleaned up, it will take about half a month for the shark to leave.
In this way, the pearl-picking black elves will not be able to go to sea for nearly a month, and their taxes and living expenses will also be lost.
The local lord rushed here soon after receiving the news, and he fainted on the spot when he saw this scene.
The completion of this fleet has his shares, and he will be rewarded accordingly after conquering the western continent.
Fortunately, his butler was smart enough to let people report in the name of the master~www.readwn.com~ The news of the fleet's complete annihilation soon spread throughout the Thirteen Nations Alliance. When they first heard the news, everyone was shocked. Think the other person is joking.
Over time, more and more people came to Pearl Village.
Tough warriors wiped out the sharks in the sea, and pearling black elves like Joyce were driven into the sea by the lords to salvage anything useful.
It's just that the Thirteen Nations Alliance has been researching for a long time and has not come up with a clue.
Charles did not know the details of that battle until much later.
The opening submarine torpedo attack in the sea made all large warships lose their combat effectiveness, followed by fighter jets to seize air supremacy, then attacked purple cabbage with a super long range and bombers named the large warships still floating on the sea, and finally Bis Meow wagged his tail and took the water to the surface. Force attack the remaining surface ships.
That evening, the purple cabbage who was shot was furious. As the once supreme being on this planet, He took everyone to wash away this shame with killing and blood in the middle of the night.
