MTL - Pirates: Steel Chain Fingers-Chapter 54 heavy snowfall
It's night, Chuklik Island, White Mountain Town.
Compared with the hustle and bustle of the night market in Tanar Town, the night in Baishan Town, Chuklik Island is obviously much calmer.
Victor stood on the deck with his hands in his pockets, feeling the refreshing sea breeze of the summer night. Suddenly, a coat was put on his shoulders, and Wu Hongji's voice came from behind him:
"Victor, be careful of catching a cold."
Victor smiled slightly and turned to look at Wu Hongji, whose face was slightly red: "Why don't you go to sleep for a while?"
"Everyone hasn't slept, and they are all waiting in the cabin. Since you said that we will see each other at night, we will naturally believe it." Wu Hongji smiled, and then she found a topic unnaturally:
"Speaking of which, this 'Red Siam' was given to the concubine like this, is it really okay? This is one of the 50 craftsmen of the good industry."
Victor leaned on the fence on the edge of the deck and said softly, "You are my important partner, and you are only a mere fifty workers, not worth mentioning."
Wu Hongji's face became more and more red, and she was hesitant to say something when she suddenly felt agitated, turned her head to look at the sea not far away, and muttered to herself:
"Strange... as if something... is approaching? Very strong feeling!"
Victor nodded with satisfaction: "Xiao Wu, your progress is getting faster and faster. Perona and Robin are far inferior to you in this regard. You all stand by on the deck first, and I'll go to 'greet'."
Saying that, he jumped off the Berger and landed firmly on the pier.
In Victor's perception, a strong and majestic 'sound' was rapidly approaching the offshore area of Chuklik Island from the deep sea.
This 'voice' is so strong that since Viktor was born, he has only seen one existence that can be compared with it - the former king under the Qiwuhai, Moonlight Moria!
Getting closer! In just over ten seconds, the owner of this 'voice' had already arrived at the port waters of Baishan Town.
Whoa!
Accompanied by the small sound of water flowing, a huge figure slowly surfaced.
This is a huge male murloc with a height of 4 meters. He wears a black bathrobe with moiré embroidery, clogs on his feet, and a tie around his waist; his skin is light mint green seaweed, his hair in a 'bun' is dark green and black seaweed, and his eyebrows are dark green and black. It is lightning-shaped, with an extremely ferocious face, and there is a baleful aura in the ferocious eyes.
"It's finally time for you, the mysterious physician of Baishan Town." Victor, who was standing right in front of the giant murloc, showed a gentle smile.
The murloc stared at Victor coldly, grinning slightly, revealing a mouthful of sharp white teeth:
"...Your 'voice' is too loud."
The hoarse and low voice was exactly the same as his appearance.
"This can only be blamed on your being too strong, respected doctor." Victor smiled slightly: "Can we chat?"
The murloc glanced at the deck of the Berger, then at Victor. After a long time, he nodded:
"...Come with the old man."
After finishing speaking, he took out an incomparably huge waterproof backpack from the water, put it on his shoulders, and walked towards the dense jungle on the east side of Chuklik Island.
Victor snapped his fingers on the deck, and everyone came down to the pier in trembling.
Luo said with a pale face: "Master... That's the legendary mysterious doctor? Why did I feel cold all over when I looked at him?"
Wu Hongji's complexion is also not very good-looking: "The feeling of the concubine is not very good, it feels like facing an ancient beast."
Perona approached Victor and was horrified to find a trace of cold sweat on his forehead, and murmured, "Brother, is that guy really so scary?"
Victor exhaled: "So strong... This man is definitely not much weaker than Mr. Moriah. Let's go, I want to have a good chat with him."
Under the leadership of Victor, everyone entered the dense jungle of Chuklik Island.
...
Limea jungle, hermit hut.
It is said to be a hut, but it is actually 8 meters high. But it's nothing compared to the surrounding tropical trees that climb 10 meters upwards.
Victor and his party took off their shoes at the entrance and sat in the living room, quietly watching the murloc doctor put down the backpack and boil water to make tea.
Not long after, there was a cup of steaming tea in front of everyone.
"What's the matter with the old man?" The murloc sat at the table, looked around at everyone, and then said:
"None of you appear to be seriously ill or have incurable injuries."
"Please allow me to introduce myself first, my name is Mafia Victor, I was born in the West Sea, and I am currently the leader of a small chamber of commerce." Victor adjusted his clothes and smiled.
The murloc looked at Victor and said slowly, "You don't have to be so self-effacing, 'The Fierce Chain' Mafia Victor, this old man has read the news about you. Many people are saying that you faked the one who defeated the king's Qiwuhai. Fake news to gain fame and publicity. But in the eyes of this old man, they are the ones who are really stupid."
"I am ashamed to be praised." Victor bowed his head slightly, expressing his gratitude.
"The old man's name is 'Haoxue'." The murloc touched the teacup and took a sip of the steaming tea: "People call the old man 'Haizuotou'. Whatever you want to call it, you can call it as you like."
"Then I won't be beating around the bush." Victor said solemnly, "I want to invite you to be the ship's doctor on the Berger!"
Hao Xue raised his lightning-shaped eyebrows: "It's really straightforward. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com The old man also ordered it directly - give the old man a reason to join you."
"In 24 days, the capital of seven waters will welcome a judicial ship, and the main criminal of the case that the presiding judge is trying to hear this time is a shipbuilder named 'Tom'." Victor replied nonchalantly.
Haoxue opened his eyes slightly, then slowly put down the teacup in his hand, rubbing his chin and sighing:
"I see... Are you... too? Victor, come out with the old man."
After speaking, Hao Xue got up and walked out of the hut.
Victor waved to the others that it was okay, then got up and followed Hao Xue out of the house.
The two walked one after the other, quietly and silently for more than ten minutes, and came to an open space where the huge full moon above their heads could be clearly seen.
Hao Xue took out a long pipe and a small bag of cut tobacco from his bosom. He slowly stuffed the cut tobacco into the pipe and then lightly pressed it until the pipe was half full. This repeated three times until the cut tobacco was full. He took out a match to light the cut tobacco and took two bites.
After a long time, he asked, "...What did you see in the old man?"
"Mr. Hao Xue, you are the sworn brother of Tom the boatman, right?" Victor said generously without concealing it.
"Hehe... Sure enough, you are born with a sense of domineering." Hao Xue grinned slightly, revealing a terrifying smile:
"I didn't expect that there is a second natural **** in the world today, which is much rarer than the overlord sex."
"Listen to what you mean, do you know another person who is born with knowledge?"
"...That's right." Hao Xue exhaled a puff of smoke with a nostalgic look on his face:
"The princess of Fishman Island - Empress Yiji."
