"Big waves! The big waves are coming!! The pirate on the port side shouted, but then his voice was swallowed up by the wind and waves, and a six-meter-high wave slapped on the deck, directly staggering the group of pirates above, Zhang Heng grabbed the cable at the first time so that his body was not taken away.

And Malvin in the cabin was not feeling well, he was peeling a potato, but he almost didn't chop off his fingers, the whole hull was shaking violently, and the bacon hanging on his head was also dancing with the demons, especially the sound of the huge waves crashing on the hull, which sounded as terrifying as the end of the world, and people couldn't help but wonder if these wooden planks that had been put together could withstand the power of nature.

The farmer's son couldn't help but crane his neck and crouch in the corner and pray.

This is the sea, with its warmth and cruelty, it is like a moody girl, one second she is still smiling at you, but the next second it has changed color, setting off stormy waves.

Compared with the other panicked pirates on the ship, Rothko's expression was unusually calm, this old man had spent most of his life at sea, and had experienced more winds and waves, and this scene did not frighten him at the moment.

He even had the leisure to take advantage of this opportunity to teach Zhang Heng a lesson, "Well, feel it, a speed like this is almost the limit of the Sea Lion, no matter how strong the wind is, the sail will not be able to hold it, and the truss straps must be loosened and the upper mast sail must be retracted in time, otherwise the mast will break." ”

Rothko's attitude towards Zhang Heng now is very different from a month ago, the latter did not follow Fraser's suggestion to threaten the other party with the whereabouts of the old pirate's daughter, this is certainly the safest way to keep Roscoe on the ship, but there is no absolute standard for teaching skills, and the difference between dedication and dissatisfaction is very big.

Rothko is the best person in Nassau with sail control skills, but it doesn't mean that without Roscoe Zhang Heng, there is nowhere to learn to control sails, and a resistant Rothko may not be much better than others.

Therefore, Zhang Heng was willing to gamble on this, and that night he told the other party the address of the old pirate's daughter's current residence, and as a result, Roscoe left the courtyard overnight, Zhang Heng thought that he was busy this time, but the old man who gathered early the next morning appeared magically on the Sea Lion, and said to Zhang Heng with a straight face, "I have already told the captain, you will be under my hands, I will stay in Nassau for another three months, this is the longest period, don't blame me for not making it clear, three months can learn where it is." ”

Zhang Heng once thought that the old man had found out with his conscience, but then one night Roscoe drank too much before telling the truth, because he had always pursued a timely and hedonistic attitude of life, he couldn't save money in his pocket at all, and it cost a lot of money to go back to England from here, and he was embarrassed to go back empty-handed when he didn't see his daughter for so many years, so he could only turn back and honestly make two more votes before leaving.

But no matter what, in the end, Zhang Heng had another teacher, and as the two got along, Rothko's attitude towards him continued to improve.

The old man has never seen such a self-disciplined person whether he is a captain or a pirate, Zhang Heng gets up two hours early every day to do basic training such as chopping, about an hour later, Owen will also come to the deck, the two start to practice, and then when all the pirates have gotten up and eaten, Zhang Heng comes to him again to learn how to observe the weather and control the sails, in addition to this, he also cooperated with Marven through food or money and other means and several other old sailors are also familiar with each other, from them learned to steer, shelling, Read nautical charts.

"Congratulations on hearing that your only daughter is still alive." The helmsman Orff appeared behind Rothko at some point, and looked at Zhang Heng who was reeling in the sails on the top of the mast with interest, "What do you think, will he become a threat to us?" ”

"I don't think so." "Shouldn't you care more about Goodwin than about him, I've heard that he has the support of more than half of the people, and it won't be long before he challenges you." ”

Orff said disdainfully, "It's just a clown, don't change the subject, you should know, your protégé is very close to Frazier, and I heard that he has helped Frazier collect debts before." ”

"So?"

"Do you really think that Fraser just got off the ship and enjoyed his retirement, if I'm not mistaken, you were the one who proposed to kill him at the time."

Rothko snorted, "I remember that you were the one who did everything to spare his life. ”

"You know I don't have any other choice, you have to admit that Fraser was very influential in the crew at that time, although we forged that pardon, there are still many people in the crew who are skeptical, and if we kill him at that time, we will be in a very dangerous situation." Orff sat down next to Rothko.

The latter shook his head, "It doesn't matter, it's all in the past anyway, and I'm ready to retire." ”

Orff knew the old man didn't want to continue the subject, "We'll miss you, and maybe I'll tell my children in many years that I've sailed side by side with the best rope lengths in the Caribbean." ”

"Then I'll tell my granddaughter that the most boring and rigid helmsman in the whole Caribbean has been talking nonsense in my ear when I go to sea." Roscoe said with a straight face.

Orff smiled, "Say hello to Koror for me." After saying that, he patted the old man on the shoulder, got up and left the deck.

…………

The three months passed quickly, because the last raid took a long time, and when the Sea Lion returned to Nassau, strictly speaking, it had been almost four months since Roscoe began to teach Zhang Heng the technique of controlling sails, and the old man had scraped together enough money for the travel expenses and gifts to buy gifts, and he had already returned to his heart, and he did not want to delay any longer, so he left with the captain before disembarking.

Zhang Heng checked his panel, and the system did not list a separate skill for sail control, but it was unified into a skill called sailing navigation together with other similar helmsmanship, weather observation, etc.

His current skill has been upgraded to lv1, in addition to the knife skills also came to lv1 a month ago, this level can be regarded as relatively good among the pirates, although it still can't beat Owen, but it can also come and go on the premise that the opponent releases a little water.

Zhang Heng is still quite satisfied with the harvest during this time, but some people are not so happy.

Another resident, Anne, for example, is in a terrible mood right now.
