Deep Sea Embers Chapter 26

Seriously, Duncan suddenly found that when the pigeon on his shoulder spoke, it was difficult for him to walk even with a nerve thicker than a pillar.

At this moment, he desperately wished that he could put a parrot on his shoulder like a normal pirate captain - what about a monkey?

But he had already pushed open the door to the chart room, and it was impossible to turn his head back at this time.

In the room of Chen Fang's nautical table, the goat head was happily chatting about the twelfth legend about sea fish stew. The sound of the captain's dormitory opening the door finally interrupted the noisy guy, and his dark wooden head immediately turned to Duncan's. The direction, the tone rose very pleasantly: "Ah, Captain! You are finally out--I have to tell you, Miss Alice is such a wonderful person to talk to, I haven't had such a good chat with anyone in many years, you Know……"

Duncan directly ignored the loud pressing of the goat head, and immediately looked at the victim opposite the sailing table, and then saw the headless doll sitting upright on the chair, holding himself in his hands. his head, while pressing his ears firmly.

Even so, Alice's eyes were still sloppy as if she had taken twelve advanced math lessons, and even Duncan didn't respond when he walked in front of her.

Duncan: "..."

"She pulled her head off herself," Goathead explained before Duncan could speak, "though I don't know why she did it..."

How powerful is the goat head's babble, it can force a cursed puppet to pull out its head to fight against the sound wave? !

At the same time as Duncan was shocked, the goathead who said hi finally noticed a strange guy brought out by the captain. His wooden head turned slightly, and his dark eyes suddenly stared at the pigeon on Duncan's shoulder. : "Huh? Captain, this is on your shoulder..."

"It's called Ai Yin, and it's my pet from now on," Duncan said succinctly, using as few sentences as possible to avoid possible loopholes, while watching Goathead's reaction to this.

"Your pet?" Goat's head was obviously stunned, and then he seemed to think about something on his own, "Ah, the Homeless did sense that you had temporarily left the ship just now... You are going on a walk in the spiritual world. Is it? This is the trophy you brought back from your walk in the spirit world."

Walking in the spirit world?

A word that he had never heard before suddenly popped up, and Duncan thought of the brass compass in the captain's bedroom, the writing left by the real Captain Duncan, and the wonderful experience of the soul's shuttle projecting into the distance. I vaguely corresponded to it in my heart, and after I felt that my guesses were inseparable from ten, I nodded with a sullen expression: "It's just a little distraction."

Duncan's voice fell, and the goat head complimented unexpectedly: "Ah! It is indeed the great Captain Duncan, even a simple walk in the spirit world can bring back the spoils - is this a pigeon? There must be something special about being your pet? You even hang your compass on it? Is that... ah, of course, you're always right, but what's so special about this pigeon? Is it..."

Duncan heard something euphemistic in the compliment of the goat head, and he moved inwardly, realizing that the goat head clearly knew the brass compass now hanging on Ai Yin's chest, and this compass was obviously very important to the real Captain Duncan. Important - so important that it shouldn't be placed casually on a new "pet".

But even if he noticed something wrong, he couldn't do anything about it, because the compass was now "tied" to the dove, and even... according to the control feedback of the fire of the spirit body, the dove seemed to be the compass at this moment. The body is like!

Duncan thought quickly in his heart, but he still maintained an unwavering expression on his face, and it was just such a stunned effort that Ai Yin, who was squatting on his shoulders, suddenly made a loud cooing sound, Immediately afterwards, it flapped its wings and flew to the head of the goat.

The dark eyes of the goat's head stared at the pigeon for a moment, and the latter tilted his head in a serious manner and pecked the face of the goat's head with his mouth shell: "Can you charge Q coins?"

Duncan: "..."

"Abnormal with intelligence?!" The goat head was obviously stunned, but then he reacted with a very surprised tone, "This pigeon can actually speak?!"

Duncan immediately reminded politely beside him: "You can speak too."

Pigeon Ai Yin also took two steps on the table, and while walking away, he muttered to himself: "Is it like talking? Is it like talking..."

Upon seeing this, Duncan rubbed his fingertips, accompanied by a sudden jump of green flames, the pigeon pacing on the table disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye, and returned to his shoulder in the next instant.

"Yes, an anomaly with psychic intelligence, and it is directly controlled by me," Duncan nodded at the goat's head, "Is there any problem?"

Goat's Head quickly replied, "Ah...of course not, of course not, so there's no problem at all - it's all in the hands of the great Captain Duncan."

Duncan ignored the goat's head and quickly ended the topic, and then he focused on Alice, who was still holding his head in a daze-perhaps the previous open-minded experience had further strengthened his nerves, and Maybe he got used to it after watching it a few times. At this time, he didn't think it was too evil when he saw Alice holding her hair in a daze. Instead, he thought this guy was a little... cute.

He reached out and patted Miss Doll's shoulder: "Wake up, wake up, wake up."

Alice's body suddenly jolted, as if awakened from a long nightmare, and then the head held in her hands opened her mouth and said, "Ship...boat...ship..."

Duncan: "You hook up your head first."

Only then did Alice react, and she hurriedly put her head back in place. After the joints closed with a click, her voice finally returned to smoothness: "Ah, Captain, are you back? It seems to have happened just now... Is Mr. Goat Head finished?"

The goat head on the table immediately said: "No, we just talked about some legends about sea fish stew, this topic can be..."

Duncan succinctly said, "Shut up."

"Oh."

Alice on the side trembled very clearly when the goat's head opened, and a dignified cursed puppet showed a horrified expression on the face, even if the goat's head was honestly closed under the captain's order in the next second Mouth, she still glanced at the direction of the sailing table with a longing heart.

Duncan suspects that this puppet lady will not step into the captain's room for quite some time to come.

Thinking of this, he finally asked curiously: "You came to me, what's the matter?"

"I..." Alice's expression was a little dull, as if her original goal of visiting the captain's room had been forgotten after a conversation with Goat Head, but after a few seconds she still reacted, "Ah yes, I Just wanted to ask, is there a place to take a bath on the boat? My wooden box entered the sea before, and now my joints are a little… not very comfortable.”

In the end, the expression on Miss Doll's face was obviously a little embarrassed, but in fact, it was Duncan who was more embarrassed than her - after all, her box was thrown off the ship by Duncan before.

And threw it several times.

Embarrassment flashed in his heart, Duncan tried his best to keep his expression unchanged, and his tone was calm: "Just for this?"

Alice sat on the chair cautiously: "Just... just for this."

"For many ocean-going ships, Danshui is an extremely valuable resource, and taking a bath is a luxury that requires restraint," Duncan said solemnly, but then suddenly smiled, "But you are lucky , The Homeless is not an ordinary ship, and Danshui is not a problem here. Come with me, there is a bathing place in the cabin below the middle deck, and to get there, you must first cross the upper deck."

Alice stood up immediately - she really didn't want to stay for a second where the goat's head was placed.

Duncan glanced back at Goat Head before leaving the room: "You continue to steer."

After the explanation, he got up and pushed open the door of the captain's room, and brought Alice to the deck.

The night has fallen now.

The night sky is clear on the endless sea.

It was the first time Duncan stood under the clear sky of this world after days of cloudy clouds.

He stopped suddenly and looked up at the sky, staring at the night without moving.

The night sky was dark and starless, and no celestial bodies existed.

The only thing that can be seen is a faint gray-white "crack" that seems to have torn apart the entire sky. Slowly escaping outward, like bloodstains that spread out in a pool of deep water.

This "pale scar" across the sky illuminated the entire boundless sea, more than twice as bright as the moonlight in Duncan's memory.
