Marvel's Planeswalkers

Tortuga Island.

Looking at the port where there was no plank ship, but only wooden barrels, wine bottles and other garbage floating around, Li Feng was a little confused and asked:

"This is the legendary pirate port? Are there so many pirates? Why do I look so lonely? Why, I heard that this mage is coming. Have the pirates on the island changed their ways, or have they been arrested collectively by the navy?"

Captured by the Navy? Don't make such a mouthful of disdain from Sparrow.

It's not that he looks down on the navy, it's just that there are too many pirates on Tortuga.

They are almost all over the streets, and ten or eight prisons cannot fit into them.

Furthermore, the little kid on the island who seems to be babbling and the disabled person who looks like an honest and honest person is secretly a pirate who dares to kill people with a knife. Even the navy would not dare to come here to arrest people even if they have the guts. .

The navy is also a human being, and they are also afraid that an inconspicuous pirate will emerge from the corner, stab him in the waist inexplicably, or die inexplicably.

Otherwise, given Tortuga Island's geographical location just one day away from Port Royal, the Navy would have brought a container of shackles to eradicate the pirate paradise.

As for pirates being kind?

Barbossa and Sparrow looked at each other knowingly.

The two of them knew that the profession of piracy was poisonous, and once they were contaminated, they would never be able to clean themselves up in this life.

Even if someone secretly washes his hands in a golden basin and comes ashore to find a serious job from now on. Well, let's ask the gallowsman first if he agrees.

Is it true that being in the navy is just a job? Or are the people in the Intelligence Department really bragging all day long?

Believe it or not, pirates whose graves were dug up and hung on gallows were put on display.

So pirates will be good, haha, it's almost as good as eating shit.

However, the desolate port in front of him was indeed a bit strange. Barbosa glanced around cautiously, thought for a while, took out his musket and checked the ammunition, and guessed: "I guess something happened, and it was something big."

"Just talk nonsense." Li Feng tightened his bulging shoulder bag, turned over and jumped off the Black Pearl.

He didn't believe it. The port city that once gathered tens of thousands of pirates now couldn't even find anyone to ask questions.

If there is really no way, we can just find a fresh corpse and ask.

Barbossa and Sparrow looked at each other. They walked off the Black Pearl in silence and followed Li Feng obediently.

The three of them walked through the dirty and depressed streets. From beginning to end, they didn't even notice a single ghost.

Suddenly, a gust of breeze picked up a few leaves and floated past the three people's eyes.

Somehow, Li Feng felt a sense of desolation, as if the once noisy island had long since become a ghost.

There won't be a plague anymore, right? Li Feng shuddered, and some frustration appeared on his face.

Isn't he afraid that the plague will hit him? He is a mage who has fallen into the "darkness". In his hands, the plague is like a good baby, and he will beat him if he doesn't obey.

He was thinking of the "Black Death" that swept across Europe from the 14th to 15th centuries.

Good guy, the population of Europe had not yet exceeded 100 million at that time. As a result, a plague directly killed 25 million people, and the population dropped by one-third on the spot. It can be said that every household was doing nothing.

At that time, people were either going to have a feast or on their way to a feast.

What's even more worrying is that sometimes when you are having a good time at another banquet, a few relatives and friends suddenly come out and drag you to the next door. They say that the husband of the daughter of the cousin of the second uncle next door is dead and you You have to come here to have a meal.

Don't worry about whether your stomach can hold it or not.

Now, although in the seventeenth century, science and technology and medical treatment have developed, but in the final analysis, they are not much better.

If the Black Death really happened, there would probably be corpses floating thousands of miles away on the sea.

This made Li Feng a little worried. Once the population dropped sharply, the "needle in the haystack" plan to find the Neptune Trident would be shelved.

Thinking of this, Li Feng couldn't help but quicken his pace and went straight to the largest tavern on the island.

In the tavern, a bartender with gray hair and trembling hands like Parkinson's disease was standing at the bar wiping wine glasses.

When he heard the door open, the bartender said without raising his head: "It's closed, there is no alcohol sold on the entire island."

"What's a tavern without wine?" Sparrow didn't believe the bartender at all. He jumped over the bar, took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, bit the cork and poured it into his mouth.

That posture was perfect for Li Feng No. 2.

Unfortunately, this is a wine bottle filled with loneliness.

"You really don't have any wine?" Sparrow was a little annoyed and took out another bottle of wine as if he didn't believe it.

After shaking the bottle, seeing that the bottle still contained loneliness, Sparrow got mad on the spot, grabbed the bartender's neck and roared: "Wine, give me wine, I want rum."

"What's going on? It's so good. Why do you say you're so anxious when you're anxious?"

Looking at the bartender whose lips were turning purple due to lack of oxygen, Barbossa seriously suspected that the Sparrow in front of him was a fake.

Although the Sparrow in his impression was a bit neurotic, he probably wouldn't kill someone just for drinking.

Li Feng shrugged, took out the wine gourd from his shoulder bag and took a big sip. He happily told Barbossa the reason for Sparrow's rage.

"Sparrow offended Kreacher before, so...his palate packed his bags overnight and prepared to run away from home for half a year."

"To put it simply, if there is not a drop of wine on the entire island of Tortuga, hey, this guy can only wait for half a year until his sense of taste returns before he can taste good wine and food again."

"So, Sparrow wants to drink as much rum as possible before his sense of taste completely disappears to make up for the half-year window."

Let me tell you. Barbossa suddenly nodded, cast a sympathetic look at Sparrow, and exulted in his heart: You also have today, you should

Knowing the reason, Barbossa was too lazy to respond and did not want to comfort him. He pretended to look around as if nothing had happened.

For him, who has not known the taste of apples for the past ten years, and who has not known the taste of wine for half a year, is it worth spending time to comfort the unlucky guy?

nonexistent.

For such a joyful thing, Barbossa would only feel that the curse was too short-lived and had to be delayed: no matter what, it would take ten or eight years.

Suddenly, Barbossa discovered that a very large reward order was posted on the information trading board that had previously been filled with 'a certain pirate sold such and such goods'.

The content of the reward order surprised him even more.

"One thousand gold coins to buy the Neptune Trident. The whereabouts of 10,000 gold coins to buy the Neptune Trident. The bounty collection address?? Port Royal Naval Headquarters!!! Or the residence of the James family?!. The reward person? Port Royal Naval Commander, James Jolington?" !”

What the hell? ! ! ! .

Barbossa felt a little confused, saying that he couldn't understand the world.

The navy openly posted bounty notices in pirate dens, and even asked pirates to help find the Trident of the Sea King.

Who would have dared to think about this before?

Especially if the address for collecting the bounty is a naval station, this is fucked up.

Pirates are indeed greedy for money, but when they go to the navy station alone, are they crazy about money or are they tired of life? Aren't you afraid that you won't get the reward? Why don't you get a hanging noose first?

That’s not how you seek death.

"This is just a bounty on the surface," the bartender reminded kindly when he saw Barbossa staring at the bounty in a daze: "The guy who posted the bounty in the first place took out a copy of the Queen's Pardon and stated that as long as James Rullington Whoever sees the Trident of the Sea King and gives him the information will be able to sign his name on the amnesty order."

"What a pity, such a good opportunity." The bartender smiled bitterly and shook his head. He looked at his hands that were shaking into chaff with tears in his eyes and sighed: "I'm old, my body doesn't allow me to go out to sea to take risks, otherwise I would like to try my luck at sea, just in case. If I find the Trident of Neptune, ten thousand gold coins will be enough for the rest of my life, and there will also be an amnesty order that will allow me to live in the sun. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I will make a lot of money."

After a long time of fussing together, the reason why not even a ghost can be seen on Tortuga Island is because everyone went to sea to look for the Trident of the Sea King? .

This incident made Li Feng, who suspected that there was a plague on the island, blushed slightly and felt embarrassed.

At the same time, he had to admire Ruolington's efficiency.

too fast.

It took him half an hour to get from Port Royal to the Isle of the Dead.

It took half an hour to get from the Island of Death to Tortuga.

In other words, Barbossa's life treasure was quite a lot, and it took a lot of time to move it, about half a day.

In other words, Ruolington and Li Feng had been separated for less than a day, and now the reward order was posted on Tortuga Island.

Admittedly, there is the factor that Tortuga Island is close to Port Royal, but let’s just ask whether it’s cowhide or not.

After thinking about it, Li Feng suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Pirates need supplies to go to sea, and preparing supplies takes time, especially scraping the entire island empty of wine and water, which takes a lot of time.

But now, not even a pirate can be found on the island.

Therefore, Ruolington's reward order was most likely posted when he went to Death Island, otherwise the timing cannot explain it.

It's so unreasonable.

And this unreasonable time involves another thing.

How did Ruolington obtain the Queen's pardon within half an hour?

telegraph?

Impossible, this thing first appeared in the 19th century.

Homing pigeon?

When you think about it, you know it's impossible. This thing can't fly from Port Royal to the Queen in minutes, otherwise the world will invent radio and other communication methods.

Isn’t it nice to fly pigeons to deliver messages? You can watch it and fill your stomach at the same time, especially the squab, which is very popular.

so.

Is the amnesty order fake? !

Li Feng somewhat understood why the reward order did not include an amnesty order, but instead it was just 'rumours'.

Although the Queen of England in the 17th century lost many real powers such as administrative power, taxation power, and military command power, she was more like a mascot for people to worship. However, she was blatantly accused of using the Queen's name. Haha, Ruolington was afraid that she would be hanged. Die.

This guy is a bit arrogant, but I like it. Li Feng thought for three seconds and made sure that if Ruolington was wanted by the Queen, he would help him and put his bulging shoulder bag on the bar.

"I like to join in the fun. I think Commander Ruolington's bounty is a little small, so..."

While talking, Li Feng opened his shoulder bag and poured out gold and silver jewelry.

Just when the bartender was about to be buried alive with gold and silver jewels, Li Feng said quietly: "Put these treasures on the reward order and tell the sailors that in addition to receiving Ruolington's reward, they can also receive my reward. By the way, the two bounties do not conflict. Whether I or Ruolin gets the Sea King Trident, both bounties will be paid in full."
