I really don't want to be a disaster

Irene: "..."

"We crossed the Caribbean Sea and defeated the legendary Blackbeard. Damn, that damned Blackbeard is a man with black magic. In front of him, Captain Jack is as fragile as a woman on Tetuga Island. Hehe, But Blackbeard finally died, before the Fountain of Youth."

"Old Gibbs bets Blackbeard is in hell right now, definitely still cursing Captain Jack for a good death."

"why?"

"Because that poor black beard lost his own daughter to Captain Jack's bed."

Irene: "..."

Old Gibbs talked more and more vigorously. After all, it had been a long time since no one sat quietly across from him and listened to his bragging.

This feeling, ah, is memorable.

Old Gibbs took another swig of his rum.

He suddenly felt that something was missing.

Yo, by the way, it's a look of admiration.

He was clearly talking about the adventurous career of a legendary pirate, and the brat in front of him should of course show an expression of admiration. Could it be that old Gibbs' storytelling level is not deep enough?

I thought about it.

Old Gibbs recalled one more incident.

"I remember back then, Captain Jack offended more than half of the people in the Caribbean Sea, whether it was undead or ghost ships, they were all offended by Captain Jack. Finally, one day, a damned undead led an army and came back to trouble Captain Jack... Hey, I bet you have never seen what is called undead."

"Oh, it's okay, I've seen a lot, you go on."

Old Gibbs: "...cough cough cough cough!"

The strong rum was accidentally choked into his lungs, and old Gibbs coughed for a long time before he looked at the young man in front of him with a strange look.

Boy, you blow up your awesomeness all at once, making it difficult for the old man to continue blowing it up!

Do you understand what it means to leave room?

Do you know what it means to respect the old and love the young?

Do you understand what humility is?

Gibbs was a little annoyed.

Ding!

Yi Lin shook her head with a smile, flipped her palm, and another gold coin fell on the table.

Gibbs had a happy expression, and he was inspired in an instant, and continued to say: "Old Gibbs still remembers that day, the sky fell apart, the sea split, the earth shook and the mountains shook, and the stars fell... Oh, that kind of scenery, I dare Bet, you have never seen it... We found the legendary Poseidon's trident at the end of the stars."

"and then?"

"It was broken by the captain. Moreover, an old guy also died there."

The old Gibbs didn't know what to think of, facing the empty void, he raised his glass, then raised his head and drank it down.

Finished another glass.

Yi Lin combined old Gibbs' fragmented story with the information he had collected so far, and asked a question: "But didn't I hear that the trident was glued together?"

Old Gibbs suddenly approached mysteriously and waved at Yi Lin.

Although Yi Lin found this pretentiously mysterious gesture a bit funny, in order to satisfy the pleasure of old Gibbs' pretentiousness, Yi Lin obediently put on a curious baby's expression and moved her head closer.

Old Gibbs lowered his voice.

"Let me tell you a secret. Few people in this sea know about it. In fact, it was Captain Jack who glued the trident back together, hehehe——"

"Oh why?"

"Because..." Old Gibbs hiccupped: "One of the things that Captain Jack regrets the most in his life is releasing a cunning guy from the human body, so, to make up for it, the old Captain Jack himself I sailed, found the fragments of the trident, and sealed that cunning guy in the sea with the glued Seagod Trident..."

"Hey hey, that cunning guy is called Ka—"

Before Old Gibbs could finish his words, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped a few points. Yi Lin's heart moved, and before Old Gibbs could say that name, she stretched out her hand and covered Old Gibbs' mouth.

Old Gibbs stared wide-eyed.

"Shh - I've seen that guy you're talking about."

Yi Lin still has "Calypso's gaze" on her body. Although Yi Lin can no longer feel the feeling of being peeped at on land, if old Gibbs said that name in front of Yi Lin, Yi Lin Rin was afraid that something would happen.

bang-

Snapped!

Old Gibbs's eyes were tearing apart, he stood up suddenly, overturned the stool behind him, and sat down on the ground again, his expression was full of horror.

"You, you, you... have you seen her? Are you cursed by her?"

Sure enough, old Gibbs never dared to mention that name again.

"That's it."

Unlike the panicked old Gibbs, Yi Lin's expression was very calm.

It was as if the curse was not on him.

"Could it be—" Old Gibbs didn't get up for a long time. He looked at Yi Lin with a suspicious expression on his face, but within ten seconds, he actually guessed the reason for Yi Lin's visit. With the voice of only two people, he growled Said: "No wonder! So you came to old Gibbs to find the 'Trident'! That's how it is!"

Yi Lin didn't explain too much, just took out another gold coin with a smile, and gently placed it on the table.

Old Gibbs stood up and sat down again.

But this time, he was not as anxious as before.

He stared wide-eyed at the shiny gold coin on the table, not daring to pick it up for a long time.

at last.

Old Gibbs sighed, "Unfortunately, even I, without Captain Jack, can't find the 'Trident'. No one in this world can find it!"

"why?"

"Hey, you don't understand. In order to prevent someone from releasing her again, Captain Jack hid the trident on a small island that was not marked on the nautical chart. Only Captain Jack can find the trident!"

Old Gibbs' tone was very firm.

"What about the Captain Jack you mentioned?"

"Probably dead, and possibly having fun somewhere! Who the hell knows! Ever since old Jack and Eliza—well, oh, it's a sad story, you'd better not know."

Old Gibbs hesitated to say something, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Eliza—?

Elizabeth?

and many more.

Yi Lin suddenly remembered someone from the Swan family.

Elizabeth Swan?

Judging from the tone of old Gibbs, it seems that there is a story in it?

Yi Lin silently counted the gold coins in the storage space. Even though Yi Lin was generous, his gold coins were not so rich that he couldn't throw them away.

The bloody greedy pirates!

Irene was speechless.

Ignore the little gossip for now, and concentrate on digging out some useful information.

Yi Lin thought for a moment, and combined all the information, she learned that the current "Sea God Trident", which was smashed by Captain Jack and then glued together again, should be a key item that can affect the plot. If you get it in a way, whether it is for the most important customs clearance evaluation, or... in short, it is very useful.

So, Yi Lin asked unwillingly: "Since it wasn't marked on the treasure map, how could Captain Jack find the trident?"

Old Gibbs smiled: "Captain Jack is different, he is a man with a compass."

"compass?"

When Yi Lin heard this, her expression became weird instantly.

"Yes, Captain Jack's compass is different from ordinary compasses. That magical compass can point to the most desired treasure. Those legendary adventure stories all rely on Captain Jack's compass...Huh? Damn rum, Old Gibbs seems drunk?"

Old Gibbs stared at the familiar little object in Yi Lin's palm, and subconsciously rubbed his sleepy drunken eyes. No, he rubbed again, and rubbed again, almost bleeding out. The compass, which was exactly the same as in memory, unexpectedly Still in Yi Lin's hands, standing still.

"That compass!"

Old Gibbs' breathing was stagnant, his expression froze, his old hand broke out with amazing agility, and he snatched the compass from Yi Lin's hand in one fell swoop.

The moment the compass changed hands, the pointer on the compass spun crazily and never stopped.

"Why is this compass in your hand?"

Yi Lin didn't know how to explain the origin of this compass for a while.

He always thought it was a bit of a coincidence.

Captain Jack who runs through the past of this world.

Xiao Sa with a compass.

The old Gibbs who used to follow Captain Jack on his adventures.

"Is it because of Elizabeth Rin?"

The corner of Yi Lin's mouth twitched slightly, secretly complaining in her heart.

How much hatred and hatred is this?

The love and hatred of generations of Three Lives and Seven Generations?

It's too bloody, right?

So this is the reason why the role-playing mode must be adopted in the story mode this time?

He just put on the vest of "Elizabeth Rin", could it be because of his unlucky luck?

Yi Lin finally did not explain the origin of the compass for the time being.

After all, Xiao Sa and old Gibbs will meet sooner or later.

Under the shocked expression of old Gibbs, Yi Lin quickly snatched back the compass and put it back in the storage space.

This is a key prop, and it cannot be lost.

"I'm building a ship."

Erin smiled slightly.

"no way!"

Old Gibbs understood Yi Lin's meaning in an instant, and shook his head like a breaking drum. Yi Lin was still worried that Old Gibbs shook his head too violently, and what to do if his cervical spine slipped off.

Yi Lin calmly took out another gold coin.

Old Gibbs gritted his teeth with a firm expression on his face: "Impossible! I've quit being a pirate a long time ago! I want to live a few more years!"

Yi Lin remained silent, and took out another one.

Old Gibbs began to struggle, unable to take his eyes off the pile of gold coins.

Another one.

"..."

Another one.

"But……"

And another.

"Oh, my honorable captain, old experienced Gibbs, at your service!"

Old Gibbs quickly put away the wad of gold coins and grinned.

After leaving.

Ruth couldn't help asking: "Do you really believe that old guy will take us to find...'Trident'?"

Not long ago, Yi Lin didn't hide from Ruth either, and told Ruth most of the conversations she had with old Gibbs.
