Chapter 10 Pirate Ship 9 An Rao's calculations were very loud. ……
Unable to run anymore, An Rao felt a sharp pain in his chest, a hot current rushed up his throat unstoppably, and a fishy-sweet smell filled his mouth.
"Cough cough cough!" An Rao started coughing violently due to being choked by the blood. Then, before An Rao could react, he felt dizzy and was picked up by Bai Chuan without hesitation.
!
no!
Is this guy so powerful?! An Rao was shocked!
"Have you always failed in running?" Baichuan asked seriously.
?
After all, there was the weight of an extra person, so Baichuan, who was running while holding An Rao, obviously slowed down a lot.
"Rustle, rustle..." The sound of the tentacles crawling was getting closer and closer, but the brightly lit stairs were still not far away, bewitching them and exhausting them.
"Click." A tentacle rested on Baichuan's shoulder, and the pale white face behind him made a hungry laugh. It was very proud and satisfied, and in the next second it would enjoy the joy of tearing its prey into pieces.
At this moment, Baichuan turned around and looked at the monster for the first time. His face, as cold as ice and snow, had no expression. When he looked at the terrifying face that was neither human nor ghost, a bright purple light flashed across his light amber eyes.
What is this?! The pale-faced man stood there in shock. The tentacles that had already touched Baichuan's shoulders seemed to be burned by fire and suddenly retracted for fear of being burned.
An Rao, who did not notice anything unusual about Bai Chuan, did not know why the pale-faced man suddenly stopped attacking, but he immediately seized the opportunity, jumped off Bai Chuan, wiped his mouth full of blood foam, and shouted at the terrifying face: "Do you still remember the golden dagger and the golden mirror? We were sent by the princess to find you! We finally escaped the hateful Pais and..."
An Rao was speechless for a moment. What was the name of that cook?
"Le...Fei?" The man's face squeezed out a name from his rotten and broken throat.
"Yes! Le Fei! She is the cook on the ship now." An Rao said quickly.
"Hahaha! This bitch, even if she kills all of us, she won't have a good ending, hahaha!" The horrifying ghost face laughed with glee, and the black and red pus and blood meandered on the face along with the deformed facial features, making it look even more terrifying.
An Rao: ...So this ugly cook not only betrayed me, but also betrayed the ghost in front of her. Perhaps this kind of dog character of betrayal is hopeless. An Rao was somewhat fortunate that he did not give his roommate, who cried bitterly in front of him, a chance to reform.
"Tell the princess for me that Jenny is ready to serve at any time, but..." The ghost face smiled sinisterly, "You must bring me the princess's words within two days and nights."
After saying that, the pale face disappeared, and the restless black fog calmed down again. The expected attack did not happen, and everything that happened just now seemed to be just an illusion.
"Very smart." A smile finally appeared on Baichuan's cold face.
"Thank you." An Rao smiled politely. Not being able to run doesn't mean that the brain is not good. Bitch, princess, gold and silver jewelry, pirates, royal warships, blood in the cabin, strange hexagram pattern... all the fragments are mixed together. Although the exact facts have not been figured out, the outline of a story can be roughly pieced together!
"Go up," An Rao dragged a new broom from the bottom of the cabin and took it in his hand, "Their magical world is so difficult to understand. How can she accurately calculate two days and nights? Can she monitor Muggles remotely?"
Baichuan followed Anrao, and there was plenty of light after they walked out of the stairs. Baichuan's light-colored eyes suddenly narrowed, and a black area spread across Anrao's slender white neck. The mucus that had dripped on his back soaked his white shirt. Through the wet and transparent shirt that was tightly attached to his back, one could see his skin that had turned completely black, with a strong smell of death.
"Your back has turned black," Kashiwa said, "Do you feel anything is wrong?"
Before An Rao could express his surprise, an irrepressible surge of blood surged up again -
"Cough, cough, cough!" An Rao bent over, covered his mouth and started coughing violently.
Blood overflowed from between the fingers and dripped onto the ground along the pale and thin fingers, one drop, two drops, three drops... and gathered into a small puddle on the ground, dark red and black, very ominous.
"It seems that people in the magic world have their own way of calculating time." An Rao wiped his face and smiled. His already pale face became even paler, and his blood-stained red lips exuded an inhuman, morbid charm.
Bai Chuan was stunned for a moment. The blood-stained whiteness, the dying life, some fragments that could not be pieced together, and the meaningless memories flashed by. The snow-white feathers, the bloody purity, the docility of waiting to be killed...
But I can’t remember, I can’t remember anything!
"How are you going to explain to Pais for being absent from work for so long?" An Rao asked, holding a broom.
"I have a way, don't worry." Baichuan didn't say anything else. The ghost-faced girl named Jenny in the bottom cabin said that two days meant two days. The only solution now was to find the truth as soon as possible. Once the truth was figured out, the situation could be resolved.
When An Rao swept under the mast with the new broom, he saw Pais's figure. The veins on his hand holding the whip were bulging and he looked very angry. The iron hook on his other hand was shining in the sun. He came to settle accounts with Baichuan.
Unlike An Rao, the cleaner's poor cleaning performance can be remedied and explained, but the captain's NPC mission is very clear, which is to deal with the ship in front, and the navigator's absence from duty has obviously had a great impact on the completion of this mission.
Pais's anger level at this moment was totally different from when he faced An Rao.
"Snap!" The whip hit the flesh, making a crisp sound.
"Pah! Pah! Pah!" Baichuan's chest and back were suddenly covered in blood.
"Captain, I found out the reason why we can't catch up with that ship." When Pais was too tired to put down the whip and raised the hook hand, Baichuan finally spoke.
The sharp iron hook stopped in mid-air.
"What did you say?" Pais' voice was still steady, but one could hear the desire in it.
"Just now there was no wind, no other obstacles on the sea, and the bow was heading straight for the ship in front. I saw no risk, so I came down to find out why the progress was so slow." Baichuan paused deliberately to test Pais's attitude. Seeing that he listened very seriously, he continued, "There are too many baggage on this ship. We must throw some, such as extra artillery, furniture and food."
Throwing things on the ship, Pais's dirty beard trembled. He didn't dare to destroy the ship, but he wanted his own ship too much! He didn't dare to throw it before, and Le Fei was useless. Now there are more people, he doesn't have to do it himself to throw things, yes! He can let others throw it now!
Baichuan's behavior violated the work rules, but the result was that he could complete the work tasks faster. The positive and negative behaviors made Pais's face change unpredictably. He was like a robot that was input with two opposite instructions at the same time. He was stuck in the same place for a long time. The expression on his face changed from smiling to annoyed, and finally his whole face stayed in a weird state with the left side of his face smiling and the right side of his face angry. It was horrifying.
Fortunately, due to the captain's outage, Pais's fatal order was not issued in the end. Baichuan climbed to the observation deck and continued working despite his injuries.
An Rao looked up at the bloody man in the observation deck and frowned. No matter whether it was Baichuan or himself, if they repeatedly tested Pais's bottom line, they would be in danger.

Time is like quicksand through fingers, which cannot be held back no matter what. Today, An Rao was even more silent than usual at the dinner table. He was so absent-minded that he could barely pay attention to Su Ming's nagging beside him. He dipped his fingers in the leftover soup and unconsciously scribbled on the table.
"Hey? Boss, why did you draw this pattern?" Su Ming asked in surprise.
"Do you know him?"
"I know," Su Ming nodded. "This is a very famous totem in the Middle Ages. It's called the Imprisonment Curse. When witchcraft was popular in the 17th century, witches would use their own blood mixed with the ashes of a specific person's hair to draw this kind of six-pointed star with eyes and then cast a spell. This would imprison the soul of the specific person in a designated place forever and prevent them from escaping. It's a very evil curse."
"Imprisonment..." An Rao repeated thoughtfully.
"Are only witches able to cast this curse?"
"Yes, the witch language is not passed on to outsiders. Only witches can use it," Su Ming said, not understanding what was going on. "Boss, where did you see this totem?"
Things seemed to be clearer now. The cook was a witch, and she used this method to imprison Jenny's soul in the bottom cabin. Jenny should be the princess's maid, always ready to be at the princess's disposal. This could explain the "royal" engraving on the warship, and "sin" was obviously the revenge of a princess who was brutally killed by pirates.
So the gold and silver jewelry in the room belonged to the princess? Was the rule of killing someone to touch the gold and silver jewelry?
But if the rule for killing is touching gold, silver or jewelry, how do we explain the first person who died? He didn't touch any jewelry.
Moreover, the dagger in his room, the snuff bottle in Su Ming's room, and the letter box in Room 25 did not look like items that a 17th-century lady would use in her daily life.
Although there are still some incompatibilities, those jewels should be very critical items.
"The rules of killing should still be related to the decorations in the room, and it will only happen in the room," Baichuan suddenly said beside him, "Perhaps the rule of Pais not letting people go out is to prevent the princess from coming to the room to kill people at night."
But why did Pais help the princess kill people? Isn't it too perverted to kill someone and then make people happy? !
"We must find the mysterious captain's room as soon as possible." An Rao said in a deep voice as he looked at the half-human, half-fish monsters in the restaurant.
"By the way, last time you said you were looking for someone in the amusement park, who is that person? I'm a doctor, maybe I can help you in this amusement park." An Rao suddenly asked. Baichuan is a very good partner, both physically and mentally, he is simply perfect. If the next seven amusement projects allow companionship, Baichuan is undoubtedly an ideal partner.
But this guy has a very cold personality and is obviously a loner. It would be better to start with his wishes. Maybe I can use the excuse of helping him find someone to help me pass the game.
Anrao is calculating very loudly.
"I shouldn't know him, and I don't know what he looks like. I don't know how tall or small he is, whether he's a boy or a girl, or whether he's fat or thin." Baichuan began to move towards the great white shark. His mutated skin glowed an inhuman silver-white, and his already stern and deep facial features looked even colder, which made An Rao, who was calculating but dressed in orange and white, look a little naive and cute.
?
"I only know his name, and my intuition tells me that I must find him." Baichuan ate a mouthful of rotten fish rice expressionlessly, "He is very important."
Yes, the meal was so unpalatable that even An Rao, who had been used to a hard life since childhood, had to muster up the courage and mentally prepare himself for half a day before he could eat it. However, Baichuan had no pressure eating it, as if the meal was supposed to taste like this.
"What's his name?" Curious baby An Rao was aroused.
"An Rao."
An Raoben Rao: ………!!!!!!
Help!
After An Rao's heart was shaken by a magnitude 10 earthquake, he immediately began to reflect on his life at the speed of light amid the aftershocks. While confirming that he had indeed not offended a person named Baichuan, he nodded calmly with a sullen face, "The name is not very common, so it should be easier to find. I'll keep an eye out for you."
Goodbye! I think Su Ming can be used for a while, and this guy named Bai doesn't seem so indispensable!
