"It's him!" Some voices came from a distance, and six people who were pointed out by Zhou Yi came over with the city defense army, and pointed at Zhou Yi, saying bad things that could be guessed even if they couldn't hear clearly.
A group of laborers looked at those people with sympathy and joy in their eyes.
"You don't know what kind of person you've messed with!" They were thinking in unison, and they were about to be the melon-eating crowd again, but they felt a gaze - from Zhou Yi, the owner of the tavern.
"When are you going to see it? I have made it very clear what I want you to do." Zhou Yi said slowly.
A group of melon-eating people dispersed and started working.
Zhou Yi, on the other hand, looked at the person who led the team, and then at Turner, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
You can't get tired of watching scenes of pretending to be aggressive, and the officer who is walking over happens to meet this requirement!
James Norrington!Captain!
Chapter 10 years is a pig-killing knife, chopped on some people, and the knife strikes a critical blow
"What happened?" Norrington asked.
"It's like this..." Turner was about to answer, but was interrupted by Zhou Yi directly.
"He's a pirate." Zhou Yi pointed to Yuris who was still immobile on the ground.
Turner looked at Zhou Yi with shock in his eyes.
He originally thought that Zhou Yi might use wealth or status and power to get over this matter, but he didn't expect Zhou Yi to do this directly!
For the people of this era, pirates are a symbol of burning, killing and looting. As long as the wanted pirates are caught, they will basically be hanged in the end!
Many possibilities have emerged in Turner's mind - the biggest possibility is that Zhou Yi wants to use money to open up relationships so that the people of the city defense army will designate Uris as a pirate... Isn't it true for all the gentry in the stories that have been circulated? Did you do it?
Guessing is guessing, Turner is going to observe what Zhou Yi is going to do first.
"It's not just him," Zhou Yi pointed to the six or seven people who had just brought the City Defense Army and Norrington over, "Including them, all of them."
"nonsense!"
"This is slander! Blatant slander!"
The six or seven people immediately refuted and scolded with beards and stares.
"Sir... are you sure?" Norrington looked at those people. "Slandering is also against the law. If you make it up casually, I will punish you as well."
"You can find those pirate arrest warrants and compare them one by one," Zhou Yi said, "I have a good memory... Once, when traveling on an island called Hawaii, a person taught Some of my memory methods, since then, as long as I have seen it, I will basically never forget it."
"Actually, what I'm more curious about is how did you recognize this gentleman's face?" Norrington stared at Uris lying on the ground dying, "I think I must have an impression of such obvious features. Profound."
"See the essence through the phenomenon." Zhou Yi said nonsense, "Get someone to fetch water, wash their faces, and trim their beards."
"...Go get all the pirate arrest warrants." Norrington thought for a while, then said to the adjutant beside him, "Then, let someone bring water and razors."
Zhou Yi's demeanor and tone made him believe three points. Besides, there would be no loss if he checked anyway. If he really succeeded in catching someone... wouldn't it be a great achievement?
"...This is slander!" Several of the six or seven people immediately began to panic visibly with the naked eye.
"Slander or not, we will know later?" Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, "If you are not, you don't need to be so alarmed, right?"
"I don't care! You must be trying to bribe these people with money, and then come to slander us!" Another person yelled, "Let's go!"
"Stop!" There was a hint of suspicion in Norrington's eyes.
The reaction of these people is a little strange.
After being pointed out by Zhou Yi, the more Norrington looked, the more he felt that these bearded people looked familiar, and the more he felt that they were guilty of guilt, so he was unwilling to stay.
"I can assure everyone that you can see all the process today, there is absolutely no possibility of any fraud or bribery." Norrington looked at the crowd around him... not the group that Zhou Yi temporarily hired The labor force, but other civilians, squeezed in because of the large number of people here, and then started to eat melons.
The phenomenon of conformity is common all over the world, not to mention that it is the middle of the eighteenth century, when there are basically no entertainment activities, and the whole city can know about it at the slightest sign of trouble.
As for the group of laborers hired by Zhou Yi, they have already started working.
They didn't even think about running away with gold coins. Zhou Yi's operation of rubbing stones into stone powder had already left a deep impression on them. "The legend of the "devil" made Zhou Yi's image even more profound in their minds.
I don't know if it is a demon, but it must be magical!
Otherwise, how to explain the hand rubbing stones?
Is there really someone who can be so powerful?
Therefore, Zhou Yi's saying "remember their faces" was also understood by them as Zhou Yi's magic mark or something, so they didn't dare to run away.
Although they have never seen magic with their own eyes, because it is near the sea, there are countless magic in various legends.
"Now, if you resist, I will understand that you are planning to abscond in fear of crime, and my men will shoot you to death directly." Norrington ordered, and the city defense troops under him moved neatly and pointed their spears at the six or seven People, "If you are not, I will apologize to you, and let this Mr. Zhou compensate you and punish him."
"Did you see it?" Zhou Yi whispered to Turner beside him.
"What?" Turner was taken aback.
"If you didn't choose to accept my recruitment, then, if there is no accident, even if Elizabeth likes you now, she will empathize with you sooner or later," Zhou Yi said, "Norrington is a very professional Even from my point of view, he can be regarded as a steady and courageous person.
Now Elizabeth is just because she is still young and in the rebellious period, and she just happens to be dissatisfied with her father Wetherby's arrangement, and because of the existence of you as a childhood sweetheart, it is logical that she likes you... But this kind of liking is just Temporarily, if you want to be long-term, then you still need to learn a lot, understand? "Zhou Ti pointed.
"I... generally understand." Turner hesitated for a while, but couldn't help asking, "Sir, there is actually one thing I don't quite understand...why are you helping me like this?"
"First, you have agreed to become a tavern employee. As the tavern owner, the basic moral quality of the employees and the happiness index of personal life are also within my jurisdiction. If you don't like someone, I might arrange for you Now that you have a partner, I will give you an idea on how to catch up and stabilize it." Zhou Yi said.
"As for the second...Although Norrington is not bad, he is too old."
"Huh?" Turner looked confused.
What a strange reason!
"He's almost 40 years old this year, right?" Zhou Yi shook his head, "Elizabeth seems to be about the same age as you, that is, 20 years old, a full 20 years behind! She has been raised for more than 20 years! It's really scary! Even if such a strange man has a good character, he can't let him succeed!"
"..." Turner was speechless.
He couldn't find a reason to refute?
Of course, part of the reason must be that this matter is good for him... If someone wants to use this reason to separate him and his ideal person, he will probably have a series of "true love does not care about age gap" and "love has no age difference" excuses like that.
What Zhou Yi said was really his true thoughts... In the original book, when Elizabeth and the others rescued Turner from the sea at the beginning of the movie, Turner and Elizabeth were still about ten years old.
At that time, Norrington was already the captain of a military ship. Even if he had a prominent family and military achievements, he must be at least 25 or [-] years old.
Calculated in this way, a gap of 20 years old is certain!
I didn't expect to have the cultivation that started so early!It's like being in the same way... Ah bah, evil heretics!
Zhou Yi, who is the nemesis of evil, firmly disagrees with this kind of thing happening!
On the side, Norrington, who was a little far away, suddenly felt a chill in his body. Looking around, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't make sense of it.
After a while, soldiers carrying cleaning water and razors and a large box of wanted pirate warrants arrived here one after another.
"No, no! This is the custom of our ethnic group! If you wash your face and shave your beard, it will bring bad luck!" The six or seven people began to panic, and even Julius, who had finally recovered from the ground, wailed together. They all said that it is their custom not to shave or wash their face, and if they violate it, they will pay the price of their lives, blah blah.
Obviously, Norrington, who saw that something was obviously wrong, ignored their excuses and directly ordered his soldiers to forcibly wash their faces and shave them.
Soon, except for Yuris, the true colors of the rest of the people were revealed.
People, as long as they are a little fatter, darker, and more bearded, they will instantly change into another look.
For example, Eggplant in CS... When he was young, he was the e-sports king Leehom. After the time-killing pig knife gave the three critical strike bonuses of gaining weight + beard + dark skin, he directly became an e-sports gangster (with photos).
Time is like a butcher's knife, and cutting it on eggplant can be described as a critical blow.
The few people in front of them were obviously not at that level, but they were enough to make them unrecognizable.
"Interesting," Norrington said, holding a few old arrest warrants, and came to those people who had been brought under control, "Your, your, your...you are really pirates, and it was ten years ago pirates!"
"That was ten years ago!" A pirate couldn't help but defend himself.
"Being a pirate for one day will be a pirate for the rest of your life, not to mention that you are still pirates who have committed crimes and are on the wanted list. That is even more unforgivable." Norrington waved his hand and came to the last person, " What's the matter with you, why doesn't this man shave?"
The man Norrington was referring to was the bearded Uris.
"Report!" The soldier on the side straightened his back and replied, "This man's beard was shaved before, and it has grown back!"
"It's grown back?" Norrington looked directly at the soldier, and then looked at Uris' face, "Tell me, this kind of beard was able to grow in just a short while?"
"Sir...but it's true..." the soldier said in embarrassment.
"I've said it all. This is a tradition among our clansmen. Only the most courageous people will be recognized and blessed by God Hu!" Yuris said quickly, "These beards are a symbol of courage, so they are It will keep growing!"
"Then let's see how much courage you have." Norrington naturally didn't believe it, and immediately ordered his subordinates to scrape him again, this time he had to watch carefully!
The sharp razor shaved those beards, and directly shaved off a large piece of beard, but immediately, those beards that were shaved off grew back... at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Continue!" Norrington immediately realized a possibility, but he didn't have any panic, but ordered his men to continue scraping.
When pulling wool, no matter how much wool there is, there will always be a day when it will be wiped clean, and now it is almost the same reason for shaving.
"No need to do this," Zhou Yi, who had been a melon-eating crowd for a long time, finally said, "I know what that is."
"What's that?" Norrington looked at Zhou Yi and asked.
"It's not a so-called symbol of courage and God of Hu's blessing, but a curse," Zhou Yi stepped forward, observing with great interest, ignoring the word "curse" that Zhou Yi said for fear of avoiding it The crowd laughed and said, "It's a curse based on his vitality, so I asked you to stop, because if this continues, his vitality will only be drained until he becomes a skeleton, but he will not get the answer. I found out Well, after a few shaves, he's gotten a little thinner."
Don't tell me, I don't know. After Zhou Yi said this, Norrington and the others noticed that Uris seemed to have lost some weight after careful observation.
"If this curse is placed in future generations and can be lifted at any time, it will probably be very popular..." Zhou Yi thought to himself.
"You...you're talking nonsense!" Uris' face was ugly.
But only Zhou Yi could see the changes, those facial changes were hidden under the cursed beard.
Zhou Yi also realized that this might be a curse after seeing such a change in Uris' beard, so he released his mana to sense it and discovered the existence of this curse.
"The curse of the Pirates of the Caribbean world... or the magic, it's not the same as the one I studied... As long as it is not actively activated, I can't detect this kind of magic fluctuation!" Zhou Yi thought to himself.
The form of this curse is very complicated, and Zhou Yi can't understand it for a while. After all, it can basically be regarded as two different magic systems. Even if Zhou Yi has a superior IQ, it has not yet reached the point of cheating... But Zhou Yi memorized it firmly.
Yes, there is no way to understand it instantly, so just write it down and think about it slowly!
This is Zhou Yi's almost omnipotent solution!
As long as a normal person knows how to decide between studying the curse model in his memory and studying a big bearded man.
There is another reason - Zhou Yi wants Uris to be punished as soon as possible.
Before, although Zhou Yi couldn't understand what Uris said when he was emotional, he could guess it... In short, there was nothing good to say.
Zhou Yi's heart is still very big, but is that for good people, and tolerance for bad people?Doesn't that make her a bitch?
This is definitely not Zhou Yi's narrow-mindedness!
"On that small island in Hawaii, I once learned some ways to lift the curse..." Zhou Yi snapped his fingers lightly, and the invisible mana poured into Uris' curse, directly destroying it. The balance at a node makes it collapse like a chain of dominoes!
Building is hard, but destroying is easy.
"...And then?" In the eyes of Norrington, who couldn't see Zhou Yi's actual action, Zhou Yi just snapped his fingers lightly and then stopped moving, so he asked a question in a strange way.
"It's been resolved," Zhou Yi said, "Now, scrape it again."
"Is that settled?" Norrington questioned.
"I never lie," Zhou Yi waved his hand, and walked towards his tavern, "I'm going to check how the reconstruction and renovation of my tavern are going... The next thing is up to you, Nuo Ling Colonel Dunn, and you're welcome."
"...Shave him!" Norrington hesitated for a while, but did not stop Zhou Yi. To be honest, even if there was no way to get rid of Uris' beard to verify his identity, Norrington would still give Uris to Zhou Yi in the end. grab it.
The few people Zhou Yi pointed out were all proved to be pirates, so could the rest be fake?
Think about it and know it's impossible.
This time, the beard was completely shaved off without growing back.
After comparison, they found that Uris was not actually called Uris, but Rix Highwell, who was indeed a pirate!
Zhou Yi didn't care about the subsequent surprise of the crowd and the spread of this matter. Anyway, his goal has been fully achieved.
Not only did they catch a wave of pirates, they got treatment similar to a white list from the city defense army, and almost everything was done with just one word, but they also placed a wave of advertisements again!
What advertisement works better than a well-told story?
In short, after this incident, the reputation of Zhou Yi and his tavern, as well as the wine in the tavern, successfully attracted the curiosity of almost everyone, and it was not only spread in this town, but also spread to farther places. place!
Zhou Yi didn't care about this, it was just a random action he did.
If this is exciting, wouldn't it be exciting to die when the plan is fully rolled out in the future?
In the following days, it was basically the same thing. Zhou Yi told the labor force how to renovate the tavern, and then became a supervisor himself.
If Zhou Yi did it himself, it would indeed be much faster, but as a boss, it is obviously impossible for him to do such a thing.
Moreover, Zhou Yi also bought a few rooms near the tavern to make his own brewery, bought various raw materials from corresponding channels, and started brewing.
The various wine-making knowledge in his mind finally played a role.
