A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

"Sorry buddy, you're out of luck." When the prisoners next door escaped, they still didn't forget to turn around and taunt "the great Captain Jack Sparrow".

"Your grandma, don't you want me to solve it..."

Luo Sanpao shook his head helplessly, and reached out to pull out a thin iron stick from under his boots.

Unlike Jack, a pirate who spends most of his time on board...he actually rarely sails in his own world.Hong Kong is not a big place, if they come out to loot frequently, they will be caught by the tail within a few days; they will only come out when they are informed by insiders and confirm which ship is full of oil and water. , and fled back when the marine police had no time to react.

In addition to eating, drinking, playing, and practicing martial arts on the island, he and his brothers would also go to land incognito to spend money and enjoy themselves, and occasionally participate in the business of bandits; There are also people such as traveling doctors, blacksmiths, cooks, and locksmiths.

He, Luo Sanpao, was more used to the world, and he was very familiar with heresy methods, so it would not be a problem to remove a bunch of old locks.

It just so happened that there was chaos outside and no one was in charge of the cell, so when would we not leave now?

While he was busy unlocking the lock, Captain Jack on one side looked out from the gap just blasted out by the shell.

Clouds and gunpowder smoke blocked the moonlight from time to time, making it difficult for him to see clearly; but as long as he took a few glances, the tragedy of Port Royal was clearly visible.

On the beautiful and tranquil Caribbean Sea, a ship with black sails and a skull flag, as if sailing out of hell, is standing on the water, and its broadside guns are still spitting out flames.

On the other side of Port Royal Castle, all the artillery positions were suppressed, and no soldier dared to rush up the city wall where the gravel was constantly splashing.

The residents of the town were yelling in fear as they fled in all directions to avoid the pirates' slaughter. Many houses on the street had already been set on fire, and the tall pirates laughed wildly and moved out a large amount of property from the houses.

Of course, it was only a group of stragglers who were responsible for looting the residential area. The real elite landing force had already gone to the middle of the castle, and they didn't know what they wanted to find there.

The surrounding colonial soldiers had already started a fierce battle with the pirates. The sounds of gunshots and sword clashes could be heard everywhere in the town. One of the most prosperous colonial ports in the Caribbean was reduced to scorched earth in a short period of time.

Fortunately, Norrington, who had just been promoted to Commodore, appeared on the front line and led the soldiers to launch a counterattack, temporarily controlling the spread of chaos.

Even though his handsome face and the white wool curly wig on both sides of his forehead have been blackened by thick smoke, Norrington, who insisted on the Royal Navy's sense of honor, did not retreat a step. Fired again and again.

The gunpowder weapons of this era are far inferior to the gunpowder weapons of later generations. There is no improved firing device, fixed gunpowder, and rifling, which leads to the fact that the rate of fire cannot be improved at all. Soldiers can spontaneously line up in two or three rows. The platoons fired separately, which is already relatively elite.

But the strange thing is that the advancement of the front line is extremely difficult. There are constantly ragged and invisible pirates rushing out of the shadow of the house screaming and screaming, and they can't kill them all.

"Don't waver, stick to the front line, shoot - back and reload, the rear row is on top! Aim!" Norrington shouted until his voice was almost hoarse, and when there were no enemies rushing up for a while, he coughed a few times and asked in a low voice The adjutant next to him: "How about the other areas? Is there anyone on the battery?"

"A few minutes ago, people were sent to take over the gun positions and started to return fire as much as possible, but there was no movement at all! I'm afraid they didn't get there..." the adjutant said anxiously.

"Send someone again! No, you take two people there yourself and light the torches! There are fires everywhere in the city now, no one will pay attention to you!"

Norrington ordered again, and turned back to join the battle command again.

Just as the adjutant of the British army led his men to light the torches and rush up to the artillery emplacements on the high wall of the castle, the two men also sneaked out of the shadows under the city wall.

"There are also British devils here. It really makes me mad."

Luo Sanpao said so in a British army uniform, and he also replaced the melon cap on his head with a three-cornered hat of cooked cowhide, which looked similar to people of this era; he held a machete in his hand, bowed The lower body followed behind Jack, the two avoided the sight of the British army, hid in the shadow cast by the building, and ran lightly all the way to the town.

"There are so many ports in the Caribbean where there are no British people. If you want to hang out here, you will inevitably have to deal with the British. Speaking of which, I am also British... I have no nationality, but I have blood. If you miss your hometown... look back Let's take back the Black Pearl, and I can send you back to Malacca."

Jack Sparrow promised indiscriminately, and from time to time, he brought the compass in his hand to the firelight, looked at the spinning pointer, and didn't know how to see the direction from it.

In this chaotic and dark environment, he is like a cat that goes out hunting at midnight. Not only does he move swiftly and quickly, but he also ensures that the bits and pieces on his body do not make any noise, and even the sound of his footsteps is hidden in the night wind. , causing Luo Sanpao behind him to see it secretly in his heart.

But Luo Sanpao is not a vegetarian either.

Although he broke his leg when he was young, so he has one leg long and the other short, and he walks with a limp, but living at sea all the year round has made him have an excellent sense of balance. With the help of his slender legs Limbs and limbs flashed and moved in the narrow alley, and quickly followed the footsteps of Captain Sparrow.

While walking, he asked in a low voice: "I said, 'Captain'...where are we going?"

"Looking for someone." Jack replied simply, and walked with Luo Sanpao to a relatively quiet place in the town.Many men and women were crying and being attacked by pirates on the road, but both of them ignored them, just cautiously avoided crowded places, and walked all the way to the target along the back wall.

——These two are not good men and women, and all they want is to take advantage of the chaos in Hong Kong, so how can they have time to care about other people's affairs?

But before reaching the place, Jack felt bad in his heart. It turned out that there was an empty place in front of him. A young man was lying on the ground holding a long sword, and he seemed to have passed out.

Next to this man were two strangely shaped pirates, one of whom was waving an iron rod, and was about to hit the back of the head of the man lying there.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Jack didn't bother to speak anymore. He just gestured behind him, drew his knife and rushed forward. The pirate's finger made him feel the pain, and the iron rod in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

At the same time, Luo Sanpao also jumped out and kicked another pirate in the waist, kicking him flying a few feet across and hitting the ground heavily.

He spit on the ground, grinned grinningly and rushed over, slashing at the pirate's head with a machete in his hand, scaring the pirate to fight back.

This powerful slash from top to bottom brought up a gust of "huh", how could the pirate resist it?Seeing that he hastily raised the knife, Luo Sanpao pressed down hard, and before he could exert all his force, he was directly chopped on the shoulder by the blade, almost cutting his entire neck in half, so he probably couldn't survive.

Jack on the other side also squatted down, put his hands on the ground, and kicked the pirate opposite him on the bone, knocking him over, and fell face down firmly.

Jack picked up the iron rod on the ground again, with both hands, hit the opponent's head with a bang, then threw the iron rod aside, picked up the knife, and set up the young man who was lying on the ground at the beginning.

"Hmph, these two actions are worthy of asking for the sea?" Luo Sanpao sneered at the dead pirate on the ground twice, drew his knife out, but when he looked up, he saw a puff of black smoke dissipating, and the cold white moonlight shone here.

It seemed that a chill came over him, causing him to involuntarily feel chills at the base of his neck, and he turned his head boldly.

There wasn't even a drop of blood on the knife in his hand. The pirate who should have been hacked to death was sitting up, his flesh and blood melted away by the moonlight, leaving only a bone frame, and he straightened his head. , turned his head towards him.

"What the hell!"

Chapter 3 Blacksmith

The era Luo Sanpao lived in was not like it is now, when everyone became numb under the bombardment of various information on the Internet; for people in his time, the moving skeleton was scary enough.

Fortunately, Luo Sanpao has always been fearless.

It's not that he has never seen a skeleton!

He didn't know how many people he had slaughtered in his life, and he felt that the ones that rotted halfway in the sea were the most fucking unbearable.

Skull's words... There were everywhere on Sanpao Island back then, but they never got up and demanded his life.

Just look at the skull clicking its rotten teeth, as if smiling, twisting its pale limbs under the moonlight to pick up the broken knife that fell on the ground just now, and ran towards Luo Sanpao. Come slowly.

It may think that this appearance is enough to frighten the opponent to the point of weakness, but it didn't expect that Luo Sanpao on the opposite side is not used to this stinking problem.

Just when the bone frame was staggering towards him, he rushed forward with quick eyes and hands, and slashed at the opponent's forehead again.

"Bah, I don't care if you're a human or a ghost!" Luo Sanpao cursed angrily as he slashed at him.

Anyway, ghosts are also afraid of evil people, the other party was obviously taken aback for a moment, and quickly raised his knife to block, and was hacked back a few steps with a "Keng".

Before it could stabilize its center of gravity, Luo Sanpao's second knife came again. Pressing the back of the knife with his left hand and pulling his right hand to his waist, he sent it forward with all his strength, and stabbed at the junction of his hip bone and thigh bone. Come here... Although he doesn't know medical skills, he also knows from his rich combat experience that this place is an important place on a person's body.

If it was a person, he would have to bleed profusely if he was solidified; even if it was a bone frame, his tendons would be broken and his bones might be broken, maybe a leg would be dismounted directly.

Of course, the skeleton returned the knife in a hurry and backhanded hard, trying to push away his thrust... I don't know where his "naked" bone stick has neither muscle tissue nor blood vessels.

However, Luo Sanpao took advantage of its strength to pull upwards, and the tip of the knife slashed across the skeleton's shoulder. If it hadn't been for its speed, it would have almost poked a hole in its head.

Seeing that he hadn't hit it, Luo Sanpao also became ruthless, his blood surged up, and he shouted: "Go!"

He gritted his teeth, exerted force instantly with his strong arm, forced the knife to hold back from its upward movement, and changed it to a sweeping sweep. The blade slapped on the skull's face and beat its head It rolled around the neck several times.

The blow was so severe that even the steel knife he snatched from the British was bent on the bone and couldn't be used anymore, so he threw it on the ground casually.The bone frame turned around twice in a daze, clutching its head as if looking for which way to go, its hands and feet couldn't figure it out, and it couldn't rush at him for a while.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, there was a sudden gust of wind behind his head.

Luo Sanpao didn't have time to think, so he rushed forward and managed to dodge the blow.Looking back, I saw another bone frame had climbed up at some point, picked up the iron rod on the ground, and was about to throw it at him again.

"Captain! How do you...captain?"

He yelled and looked around, only to realize that Jack and the person lying on the ground had long since disappeared.

"...Grandma, you run pretty fast."

Luo Sanpao was talking to himself, quickly rolled over to the side, and avoided the vertical chop of the iron rod.

Dark clouds surrounded him again, and seeing the surroundings getting darker and darker, he didn't want to stay here any longer, so he quickly took a breath, jumped up with a "chuckle", and jumped onto the roof of the neighbor's house with all his hands and feet. Stepping on the ridge of the roof, he jumped again, turned over and went down another alley.

The shouts of the British army came from behind, which seemed to be a counterattack; after the moonlight was covered, the two pirates also returned to human form, but one of them was still facing the back, staggering disoriented.

Another pirate laughed unscrupulously, and urged maliciously: "The cannon is fired! Don't go back to the ship! I won't wait for you!"

The pirate who turned his head just put a hand on his shoulder, and kicked his ass blindly while running, and the two ran back towards the sea while maintaining a strange posture.

The British garrison in the entire colonial port finally reacted, and the artillery positions on the city wall also started to fight back against the black ship in the outer port, forcing it to unplug the anchor and retreat far away.

In the residential area of ​​the port town, the British soldiers lit torches and searched the streets and alleys for the remaining pirates. Everyone was destined to be unable to sleep tonight.

Luo Sanpao dodged left and right in the alley. He is a person with no identity in this world, let alone entering the country through normal channels. If caught by these British soldiers, he would be hanged as a pirate.

Although he is indeed a pirate... but the uncle has just stolen his clothes from you!

Just when he couldn't find a way to get out, a face with black eye circles like pot ashes and beard tied into a braid suddenly appeared from the room next to him.

"here!"

Jack Sparrow whistled like a bird and stopped him in a low voice.

Luo Sanpao looked around to see if there was no one around, and heard the British soldiers shouting and drinking outside the alley. He didn't have time to think about it, so he sneaked into the house.

As soon as he closed the door to ask something, Jack covered his mouth and led him all the way into the house, into the tall coal pile next to the cooling stove.

It turned out that this was a blacksmith's shop, surrounded by tools such as hammers, anvils, and blowers in an orderly manner. There were pieces of metal billets hanging on the wall, and there were also many cast knives hanging on another wall. side, waiting for their sheaths.

Jack reached out and wiped a large amount of soot on his face, and motioned to Luo Sanpao to follow suit; the two of them buried most of their bodies in the pile of coal, and only squinted to see the coal dust covering their heads. Look out through the cracks in the blocks.

Not long after, a group of British soldiers rushed in with bayonet-mounted muskets.After searching around, a soldier ran back and reported to his chief: "Report sir, the blacksmith passed out drunk, and Turner passed out beside the back wall with a sword in his hand. There are footprints on the wall, it should be that the pirates came in and were killed." He spotted him, knocked him out, jumped out the back window and escaped."

"Take me to see. Can Turner wake up? If he can't wake up, just leave him there!"

The captain said, and followed his subordinates to the back wall.Not long after, a group of people rushed over in a hurry, chasing after Jack's forged trail.

When the whole port returned to silence, and only the low cries of townspeople echoed in the air from time to time, Jack pushed away the coal in front of him, and got out from the coal pile. Like my own family, I fetched a basin of water from the bucket next to me skillfully, and wiped the soot on my face and body.

"It's not the first time I've come here." Facing Luo Sanpao's questioning eyes, Jack said so, throwing him a towel.

Luo Sanpao also took off his shirt, and while carefully wiping off the dirty black on his body with a towel dipped in water, he asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with your boat, and what are those two non-human beings? "

"They are cursed and cannot die." Jack also replied in a low voice, "They rebelled against me under the leadership of first mate Barbossa and drove me off the ship...so that was my ship, but now I I can't decide. I need to find enough people to take the ship back..."

"...What kind of curse, give me one too." Luo Sanpao snorted, pirates who can't be killed, that's awesome, you can rob whoever you want, and you can have as much money as you want?

Jack Sparrow showed his black teeth and smiled slightly: "This is a curse... Although you will never be killed, I want to tell you that you can't taste any good food, and you can't feel any bed. Things are useless, do you want more?"

"The one who beat his uncle and grandma, then why are they here to rob, and why don't they dig a hole and bury themselves?"

Luo Sanpao said it smoothly.

But Jack's eyes darkened: "I know why they are here... Okay, let's wake up the little blacksmith first."

As he spoke, he came to the back wall and poured the water used by the two of them directly on the head of the little blacksmith Turner.

Turner grunted and rubbed the back of his head as he got up from the ground.

Before he could stand still, Jack had already stepped forward, lifted him up by his collar, patted his elf-like, pretty little face, pointed to his nose and said: "Boy, I am a person who repays evil with kindness...Although you got me locked up, it looks like I saved your life again. What did you see? Why did you rush out and be knocked unconscious?"

Turner replied in a daze, "The pirates rushed in, burned, killed, and looted. They went directly to the castle... Elizabeth... was captured by them."

Having said that, he slapped himself abruptly, woke himself up, grabbed Jack's hand, and hurriedly asked, "How did you escape again? Did you see Elizabeth?"

But Jack didn't answer him, he just let go of his collar, stood there and raised his head to think carefully, and suddenly realized: "So that's it... I said why is that gold coin in hers."

Luo Sanpao got excited when he heard the gold coins: "What gold coins? I said 'captain', I came here only after believing your nonsense. If you have a way to get rich, don't forget me Luo Sanpao .”

"This fortune can't be made." Jack shook his head meaningfully, then turned around and pointed the little blacksmith's chest with an orchid, and said to him, "...she is your lover? Do you want to rescue her?"

"...She is Brigadier General Norrington's fiancée." As soon as this was mentioned, the light in the little blacksmith's eyes dimmed, he pursed his lips, and walked out quickly, saying as he walked, "I'm going to talk to the governor. Say, tell the brigadier general, it’s too late to go after it now!”

Luo Sanpao immediately stood up, picked up a sword from the side and put it on the back of the little blacksmith, sneered: "I think you want to report to the police to arrest someone. Damn you, you dare to take a step out of the door, grandpa I'll string you up into candied haws!"

"No." Jack walked over slowly, flicked the blade of the sword, and took a deep look at Luo Sanpao: "The Black Pearl is the fastest ship in the Caribbean, and it cannot catch up; and the governor and the brigadier general may not send troops. .William Turner, right...You can try it, but you have to know that going to sea with us is your only chance to save...someone else's fiancée."

"What do you want more?" Luo Sanpao asked puzzled.

"That's my boat! I know where it's going." Jack said, motioning for Luo Sanpao to raise his sword and let the little blacksmith out the door.

[55. No. 55]

Chapter 4 The Interceptors Set Sail

Not long after the next morning, Turner returned to the blacksmith shop with a sullen expression on his face.

Listen to what the dog-like brigadier said, "Don't think you are the only person here who cares about Elizabeth", you care about you and send troops out to find her!

By the time you move out slowly, even if you find her, it may be too late... What good will happen to a beautiful girl if she falls among the pirates?

If he had been Miss Swan... that is, Elizabeth's fiancé, he would have been so anxious by now that he could not care about any logic and plans.Even if the Caribbean Sea is turned upside down, he will definitely find his beloved!

Turner felt that Commodore Norrington's only reason for rejecting him was that his love was not enough.

As for Governor Swan, he is not a soldier, but a politician... His responsibilities and power boundaries are determined, and he can only follow the advice of the brigadier general in military operations.

The two were hopeless, and as a man, Turner believed that he had to rely on his own strength and wisdom to solve the problem.

Fortunately, he listened to Sparrow's words last night, and now he is going back to the blacksmith shop to find the two pirates, hoping that they are trustworthy enough not to leave.
