Chapter 34: The Disappearing Pirate Ship
"Captain, you don't have to be so polite.
The reason why I can be on the Jellyfish tonight is all because of your kindness."
Li Feng first exchanged a few polite words with Captain John.
It's not that Li Feng was just acting for fun, after all, it was the captain who rescued him in the first place.
Although it was true, Captain John was very flattered to hear these words from Li Feng, who was already a rescuer.
At that moment, the two of them praised each other for a long time.
But it was obvious that the relationship between Li Feng and the captain became closer because of these words.
And unconsciously.
Captain John already trusted this young man who couldn't even explain his origins.
Maybe this is the art of language.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Li Feng began to shift the topic to pirates.
"I think the two pirate leaders,
one should be a hunter of a very low rank,
as for the other, I think he might just be a quasi-transcendent who has awakened extraordinary abilities."
Li Feng began his fabrication.
Captain John nodded after hearing this. He rubbed his temple and began to recall the scene he had seen.
He was recalling the ability characteristics of the two extraordinary people.
Li Feng naturally did not want the captain to remember anything, so he immediately interrupted the captain's thoughts:
"Now think about it, the hunter has many strange methods, maybe he is still a person of the abyss.
But I think he must have just been promoted to extraordinary.
Otherwise, even if I ignited the wine in the storage room,
I couldn't defeat them both by myself."
Li Feng said sincerely and in line with normal people's logic.
He had long described his battle as a process that ordinary people could understand.
For example, he knocked over the candles in the living sacrifice ceremony, ignited rum, and whale oil used in the kitchen.
As for why the two pirate captains were burned to charcoal, it was because their strange living sacrifice ceremony exploded.
Moreover, he also accidentally killed the two pirate captains by relying on the backlash of the living sacrifice ceremony.
Li Feng described everything he could explain as coincidence and the cause of the fire.
As for the inexplicable parts, he attributed them to the strange rituals that only the Abyss Blessed could understand.
In addition, Li Feng deliberately downplayed the opponent's strength.
All the details added up to make his entire statement sound extremely credible.
As expected, Captain John nodded with lingering fear.
When he heard about the ritual of living sacrifice and the explosion after the ritual, he was so scared that he was aware of self-protection and didn't want to recall it anymore.
After all, it was him who was captured and sacrificed.
"I understand, I will report it truthfully to the maritime sheriff and the shipping company."
Captain John looked at Li Feng and continued to say solemnly:
"Thank you again, Mr. Rhine.
You are such a kind person, may the seven gods bless you forever."
Li Feng immediately returned the gift and expressed his gratitude.
Then he took advantage of the victory and said that the weather was hot and if the corpse was left on the ship for a long time, it would be detrimental to the health of the crew.
The ship doctor on the side immediately agreed.
In order to avoid the terrible plague, the ship's doctor suggested that it would be safer for the captain to throw the nine bodies into the sea.
The first mate also agreed to throw the bodies into the sea.
He quietly walked to the captain and said.
This time the pirates boarded the ship, except for destroying the storage room, we did not suffer any other losses.
The cargo on the ship was intact.
In this case, the shipping company will not pursue any responsibility.
So there is no need for us to carry the pirates' bodies to claim reimbursement.
Our injuries alone are enough for the company's financial department to stamp.
So, it is really unnecessary to keep those creepy bodies.
The first mate's words were very popular, and the captain had no reason to disagree.
After all, two charred bodies were placed in the restaurant, and even men who make a living on the sea would feel sick to see them.
Soon.
The charred bodies of the two hidden people and the bodies of seven mortal pirates were thrown into the sea by the crew.
Li Feng looked at the scene in front of him and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Falsify the case files and destroy the body.
Now, no matter who it is, there is no way to connect Li.
"You may have missed something you can't imagine."
At some point, Xia, who had turned into a black cat, sat next to Li Feng.
"What do you mean?"
Li Feng also asked silently with the contract.
Xia thought for a while:
"Although I don't know why you want to hide the truth, if you tell the truth, you will definitely get the attention of the Seven Gods Church after you go ashore, and get an enviable future."
Li Feng lowered his eyes after hearing this, he understood what Xia meant.
"I don't need it."
Li Feng answered.
Xia was not surprised at all after hearing this answer.
Anyway, this human has never played cards according to common sense, she has been used to it.
The night sky is dark, shining with a few handfuls of stars.
Listening to the sound of the steamboat cutting through the sea water beside his ears, Li Feng suddenly remembered something for no reason.
He asked the first mate who was directing the cleaning of the storage room:
"Since there are pirates, where is the pirate ship?"
The first mate, who was also middle-aged, scratched his hair, puzzled:
"I don't know either. I saw the pirates when they first boarded the ship.
But when we were rescued, I went to look again and the ship was gone. I was also very surprised at the time."
Hearing this, Li Feng frowned and thought.
Is there anyone else on the pirate ship?
But according to 0344, seven pirates picked up two pirate captains, so there were nine pirates in total.
And he killed nine pirates in total.
Judging from the number, there will be no more fish that slip through the net.
But in this case, who drove the pirate ship away?
"Plop-plop-"
Thinking of this, Li Feng suddenly had a few palpitations for no reason.
He felt that he seemed to have grasped something, and hurriedly continued to ask the first mate:
"Did you see clearly that there were other pirates on the ship at that time?"
The first mate was also at a loss when he heard the question:
"There should be, the fog was too thick at that time, and nothing could be seen clearly."
Li Feng nodded, and he tried to sort out the whole thing.
Heavy fog, sudden pirate ship, hidden pirates, inexplicably disappeared pirate ship...
The Jellyfish sailed at high speed all night, and gradually, the east was dawning.
After several hours of intense tension, Li Feng, who had completely calmed down, felt exhausted and numb all over.
He instinctively tried to maintain consciousness, but he eventually fell asleep without realizing it.
It seemed like a long time had passed in the dream, but it also seemed like only a moment.
When Li Feng woke up, the first thing he saw was the cream-colored plaster roof.
The roof was clean and tidy, and there were exquisite and complex patterns carved all around.
There was wind blowing from the left, and Li Feng turned his head and saw a window that let in sunlight.
At this time, the white curtains were fluttering in the wind.
Through the curtains, Li Feng could see the lush trees outside the window and the elegantly decorated courtyard.
Have we reached land?
He sniffed the air carefully.
In addition to the fragrance of flowers outside the window, Li Feng also smelled the smell of herbs.
Could this be a hospital?
Li Feng rubbed his head and wanted to see his wounds.
Only then did he realize that his clothes had been changed into clean clothes, and the wounds on his body had been bandaged.
It turned out to be a hospital. I really hope the fee is not too expensive.
Just as Li Feng was daydreaming, a voice suddenly came from the door:
"Ah, you finally woke up?"
